Episode 41 VHF / UHF Waste land

00:00 Intro Music

00:54 Intro

Recording live from the vehicle, Dave Yates style. http://lottalinuxlinks.com/Migration to the web hosting service is complete, though some things were lost. If you were signed up for an account on the old site, you'll need to sign up again.After a long hiatus, Resonant Frequency is back. Tell your friends. If you're on iTunes, new episodes should arrive automatically.To contact Richard, use [email protected].

04:51 Dayton The Dayton Hamvention is coming up. Look for the Linux in the Ham Shack table at Dayton and say hello to Russ, K5TUX. Unfortunately, Richard will not be able to attend due to job commitments.

05:14 Thanks, again, to Jerry Taylor for his kind remarks about us on his podcast, The Practical Amateur Radio Podcast.There are a number of good amateur radio podcasts, now. Some are:

The Practical Amateur Radio Podcast (http://myamateurradio.com)Low SWR http://www.lowswr.com/Teen Radio Journey http://www.teenradiojourney.com/Linux in the Ham Shack http://lhspodcast.info/Resonant Frequency http://rfpodcast.info/

06:08 This episode is being recorded on a Sansa Clip while Richard is driving. Apologies for any pops and clicks.

07:12 Song "Funky Way" by Mark Hummel, from the album "Retro-Active".

11:52 Rant VHF / UHF Waste landEvery VHF and UHF repeater pair within 70 miles of the Dallas/Ft. Worth area is taken. So, why can't you find someone to talk to after 11:00pm? Years ago, that was not the case. Is the 2m band dead at night in your area? Any idea why? Let me know. Around here, 2m is busy at drive times, and a few nets in the evening, but after that, nothing. If we don't use it, we'll lose it. Don't let VHF and UHF become a Waste Land

26:05 Song "Smack Talkin' Mama" by Ray Campi, Kevin Fennell from the album "Hard Rockin' Head Knockin'"

RF Podcast EP 38 Reflective Retrospective

Episode 38 Show Notes

00:00 Theme:

00:53 Intro: This is a Reflective Retrospective, due to family and work obligations. We'll try to have new content next month.

02:59 Song: "Beast of Burden" by Altered Five from the album "Bluesified"

07:27 Topic: Dipole antennas. (From episode 13)Half-wave dipole antennas. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dipole_antenna Some statistics say that 19 out of 20 new hams never get on the air. Is it because they don't have an antenna? A half-wave dipole is inexpensive, easy to build, and quite effective. The formula for calculating the length of a dipole is:Length (feet) = 468 / frequency (MHz) or,Length (meters) = 143 / frequency (Mhz)Here are a few references to help get you started:http://www.k7mem.150m.com/Electronic_Notebook/antennas/dipole.htmlhttps://web.archive.org/web/20091021224152/http://geocities.com/n2uhc/dipole.htmlYou may wish to try a G5RV antenna, which can be used on many bands. http://www.astrosurf.com/luxorion/qsl-g5rv-2.htm

40:30 Song: "Heaven" by Los Lonely Boys from the album "Live At Blue Cat Blues - Dallas Texas"

44:24 Topic: Dipole antennas, part 2. (From episode 14)Richard continues his discussion of dipole antennas, and introduces fan dipoles, long/random wires, and loop antennas.

1:17:44 Song: "Misunderstood" by Carolyn Wonderland from the album "Miss Understood"

1:21:11 Topic: Stealth antennas (From episode 18)Low profile, or stealth, antennas. Every situation is different, so think creatively. Remember, any antenna is better than no antenna.

1:49:57 Song: "Friday Night" by Los Lonely Boys from the album "Live At Blue Cat Blues - Dallas Texas"

1:53:07 Conclusion: Thanks for joining us for the Retrospective episode
