done over the internet, if possible
Hi Andy

Hi all
I know this is off topic, but I am confused.
I have a new toy. It is a Internet radio from Pinell (

across a streamed live ham frequency form the net: http://www.3819khz.net/;
It turned out to be a real hate network. It
Regardless of who is in Govt at the current time, there seems to be an
increase in the USA of hams who express political opinion over the air.
When I first became a ham , my mentors explained that expressing political
opinion over the air was not within the ethics of ham radio. Alas, this

Ri ck, I`ve built both. I`ve compared them side by side and the slimjim
wins. I could hear and get into repeaters with the slimjim that I could
not with the jpole. Plus it matches much easier and is easier to build
than the jpole. I always used the 450 ladderline to build the slim jim.

J-Poles, or for that matter, SlimJims, could be built for either
portable or fixed operation from 450 ohm slotted twin lead. I have a
fixed home J-Pole constructed from 450 ohm window line and sealed in
PVC. Because the velocity factor is significantly slowed down by the
PVC, you have adjust

Alan,
Why do you prefer the SlimJim over the J-Pole?
LB Cebik did an in depth comparison of the two antennas and found the
J-Pole to be slightly better in performance.
Recently, our club had a J-Pole antenna building party and it was
difficult to get them tuned up where we wanted them using

How about building one? It doesn't get much cheaper or easier than this one:

And as far as I can tell, they work as good or better than any j-pole

This is quite off topic, but hopefully the moderators will cut some
slack since even digital ops want a good antenna like anyone else:)
I do have some experience with using a modified form of W6JJZ's, The

BUTI guess that AC is needed for that effect.
In that case, it is not static energy...
And noise can be produced both by AC and DC EHV lines, caused
by dark and corona discharges.

Although a minor part of my discussion, one must not forget that radio
signals, particularly on HF have no boundaries and affect others outside
of a political jurisdiction.
Whatever the FCC decides here in the U.S. has effects on the rest of the
world, sometimes profoundly so. Particularly
I'll understand if the moderators boot this!
Anyone have any experience with a computer simply turning itself off
for no apparent reason? I get no error messages, and no warning of any
type. When I turn it back on, it comes on fine, without even going
through chkdisk, as if it was turned off
The Commerce Department, made radio rules before the FCC was formed
