I won't be buying a Lucas amp anytime soon...at least Ameritron INCREASES RF output....I shudder at the thought of a Lucas' grounded B+ would be supplying the radiating element....Originally Posted by W9JEF

Encrypt everything. Even if you have nothing to hide. It increases the noise floor.
Bro, I've never been closer than 6 ft to a tube lol

HAARP turned me into a newt.

All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
Previously on RF JEF:
"Is questioning the "gentleness" of megawatts of concentrated ERP from a 1000 foot dish--the same as promoting a "conspiracy theory?"
Megawatts is QRP for the Arecebo dish, but it's not HF, the only transmitter operates in the 70cM band for platetary radar mapping. A few years ago a couple of hams assigned to the project >throttled back< the transmitter to the legal 1.5KW Amateur output, and the antenna gain multiplied it to the several >terawatt< level for a little EPE (planet bounce) fun with other hams on the receiving end. That's when I made a few jokes about bouncing signals off Uranus. They don't need HAARP to burn a hole in the ionosphere. (;->)
