I have one of this exact supply, bought on Amazon. I use it for "smoke-testing" newly-built gadgets, GPS receivers, soundcard interfaces, etc. Since the current is far more limited than the nearly unl

What exact ferrite cores are you using on the leads of the supply you are selling? How much effect do they have on noise at HF and VHF? Stephen H. Smith wa8lmf (at) aol.com Skype: WA8LMF EchoLink: Nod

The X300 and other similar antennas in the Diamond and Comet families are intended specifically for amateur radio operation in the 144-148 Mhz "two-meter" VHF ham band, and 430-450 MHz "70 cm" UHF ham

How much higher freq/lower SWR could you get by connecting each "T" to the adjacent BNC jacks on one side of the box, instead of spanning the full width? Stephen H. Smith wa8lmf (at) aol.com Skype: WA

Is there something fundamentally different between your one-turn 1-meter loop and the smaller (usually rectangular) multi-turn air-core loops provided as receive antennas for the AM tuners in AV recei

Is this still available? I have had the same problem with the HF Active antenna for years. I live about 2 miles (3.2 Km) from the Michigan State University transmit site for WKAR-FM ( 100 Kw on 90.5)

If you are NOT going to use the antenna for VHF, opt for the LF/HF version. 1) The gain is not going to be the limiting factor on what you can hear. Local NOISE -- lots and lots of it - will limit wha

Isn't the bicycle wheel steel? Or are your bike wheels some exotic non-ferrous alloy? Stephen H. Smith wa8lmf (at) aol.com Skype: WA8LMF EchoLink: Node # 14400 [Think bottom of the 2-meter band] Home

Kudos for using a proper full-size USB "B" socket instead of a flimsy mini- or micro-USB! Stephen H. Smith wa8lmf (at) aol.com Skype: WA8LMF EchoLink: Node # 14400 [Think bottom of the 2-meter band] H

What effect has the varactor diodes had on the selectivity/bandwith of the preselector? Are the pics on the web page of the selectivity sweeps of the old air variable version, or the new varicap versi

How much effect does the diameter of the loop conductor have on it's performance? I was thinking of using something thin and "springy" like piano wire, that could be coiled up into a very compact coil

Am I correct in assuming that electrically this is essentially a small bottom-fed magloop, and would have a figure-8 horizontal dipole-like radiation pattern?

The "Kite Loop" antenna was published in the July 2019 issue of QST, page 39. This is a "skinny" loop, predominately vertical physically that radiates a horizontal polarized signal. The original desig

Would you place enough low-pass filtering in it to effectively block VHF/UHF. I suffer from severe overload/intermodulation from nearby very high power VHF TV and FM stations on my original HF active
