Cut 'em for the longer length and try it. If it works with good VSWR, you're
done. If not, cut it shorter and re-connect the connectors and measure the
VSWR again. Then report back so Kevin can update the info on the web page.

Hello
I am selling a customer a 180 foot Rohn SSV tower, it will be located 4
miles due West of one end of the West runway. The FAA would not give the
total 200 feet of airspace I requested, said planes would hit it at that
height so they gave me 180 feet. 20 feet, seems kinda crazy to me but

Right now I am running an external charger for my batteries and am
considering switching to my internal backup feature on the RM-50M-
BB. I have a 50amp breaker ready to go but have a couple of
questions;
1) I may be getting a 100ah battery soon. Will the supply handle
that?
2) I have not had

Yep. They probably went by the slide slope (or whatever the other side
of that is called - the rise slope?) and it came out to 190 feet at that
distance.

If the "glide slope" is at a height of 190 ft at a distance of 4 miles from
the runway, I will put in a prayer for all the poor pilots relying on this
ILS system hi hi.

Hi all, what frequency range is "92" for an MVP? The highest I see
in my docs is 91, which is 494-512 mc. Thanks

Its a Rhone self supporting but is stainless. It is also guided for extra
strength. Gewts windy at the site as well as ice.

Thanks to alll who replied to this question. I programmed
the station last night and tuned it up. It was equipped with
the "internal duplexer" option. The transmit filter proved
somewhat difficult to tune, even following the alignment
procedure in the book and using the alignment probe.
Thanks agai

Nope. 234 would be used to calculate half of a dipole or
perhaps the radiator for a ground plane. That's because
these antennas don't resonate on the desired frequency when
cut to a free space half or quarter wavelength. I'll leave
the *reason* for that to someone else, as I haven't thought

Standard ILS glideslope is 3 degrees, but they vary. That angle is from

Did I mention this tower is going to be 4 miles due West of the South end of

Leave the tone turned off first.
If you have any way to put a local mic on the tx, or generate audio
DIRECTLY into the mic input, set the deviation on the transmitter for
maximum deviation,

Depends on what your goals are. If you're not highly bandwidth-constrained
(not on a 12.5 kHz UHF or 15 kHz 2 meter channel) & are running unlimited

Don't know about that brand, but I believe I understood that energy
efficiency was much better on the Red LED beacons than the incandesent
