Thanks for the idea, I did it and well it doesn't work. The problem is that in map chooser I don't even see the maps that I created. Huh, and also thank you all for help with chmoding. ;-) Kind regards, Luka Lee Bengston wrote: On 6/30/07, Luka [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Well I've done as you

Here is a quick and dirty one. We all have coax, wire ties, and a good pitching arm. Sometimes a mast is not the easiest thing to install but if you have tall overhanging objects, this helps. I always carry a spool of mason's twine (either pink or electric green/yellow). The antenna is made

I agree about the windup j-pole. My complaint is that 300 ohm twinlead is not stable in construction or materials. I have had the geometries of a J change when rolled up, messing up the tunings. You also have to use a coax balun or beads on a J since it is a balanced antenna being fed from an

Apparently, Fedora 7 on my system loaded parts of GRASS. The ldd search of 1.9.1 that worked showed libgrass_rtree.so.6.2 being linked in. Changing the variable names, I believe that what was done, that was done in the CVS , avoided the linker bringing in libgrass_rtree because it could not

Tom, IIRC, my laptop version of xastir had me compile separately GDAL. BigBox got GDAL from the repo. All I can say is AIIIEEE as he runs into the darkness, holding his head, and thinking of Muench. 73 from 807, Richard, N6NKO Tom Russo wrote: On Sun, Jul 01, 2007 at 07:35:33AM

The J-Antenna is an end-fed 1/2 wave with a 1/4 wave matching section. The bottom is tied together forming a hairpin. The coax is moved up from the bottom to reach the 50 ohm point and secured. The feedpoint is actually balanced so there can be some issues feeding the antenna with coax, which
