Hi, I am taking a college class on communities, and I am doing a study of the Ham Radio Community. I have created a survey about making the Ham Radio Community...
Wow, Ken...there's so much I wanted to say during your survey. You touch on a very important concept: COMMUNICATION. When I give my amateur satellite talk...
This is how I did it (years ago) .. image from the BMHA archives: http://www.lafetra.com/bmha/Newsletter/images/V05N04p04.jpg Richard Amirault Boston, MA, USA ...
BMHA'ers: I know that the "Open Letter" posting has generated a lot of passion, but this is a Bicycles-and-Ham group, where postings should be relevant to both...
I have a slightly different mounting arrangement using aluminum 90 degree angle bolted to the "floor" of the bike rack. I plan to have it on display on my...
Just a reminder of the Dayton Hamvention BMHA forum coming up in just a little over a week. Here are the details again. Remember to bring your bicycle setup...
Looking at the website, the Dayton Hamvention appears to have changed our Forum Room from Room 4 to Room 5 for our forum. They also list the start time of...
Hello everyone, I'd like to remind everyone who is going to be at the Dayton Hamvention this Saturday and Sunday about the the BMHA forum Sunday morning, and...
Hello all, just thought I would make a post to say how pleased I am to join the BMHA; many thanks to Skip and Mike, NF0N for welcoming me into the group. I am...
Dave, Welcome to BMHA and our group. For those who want an additional introduction to Dave and his bicycle and pedestrian mobile activites, the current June...
Dave G4AKC also has a very interesting and informative QRZ page. You can find a link to his page front-and-center on the BMHA website's main page at ...
Hi All, I will be out bicycle mobile operating from near to the sea from about 12:00 GMT, tomorrow (Sunday) for at least 3 hours, so if anyone wants a bike to...
Hi all, I'm trying to decide on a front headlight so I'm not necessarily forced to return home before dusk. I've seen any number of options on the web, but I...
By having an independent power source I don't have to curtail my radio time in order to have enough current left to get me home. So, I bought an Energizer...
I used several lights and then landed on Dinotte systems with the brightest I could get. A bright and attention getting rear light is as important as the...
I, along with my daughter and husband in Berlin, have the: Cateye Ld-1100 Tail Light which costs $40 at Nashbar. It works well enough to hurt your eyes. The...
I too like the headlamps available in a wide variety at most hardware stores. The ones I like best have super bright LED's and can be selected for low,...
My Dinotte lighting uses rechargeables so when I get home, I hang the bike by its rear wheel, disconnect each light and connect each battery pack to the...
... You might want to check out this site: http://www.nordicgroup.us/s78/ They have plans for do it yourself brackets to mount flashlights on a bike, and they...
Thanks Ken. That's the kind of stuff that I was looking for. And a quick look made it appear that some of the brackets might have been based upon rifle scope...
... That bracket scares the heck out of me. Imagine that penetrating your groin in a collision ... Personally, I prefer a mounting system that will break away...
Well, there's nothing saying that a light needs to be on TOP of anything including a handlebar if that's what you mean. An under handlebar mount can be just...
Indeed, a light mounted on the fork will work. Fifteen years ago, when I commuted to work, I somehow acquired a mount that clamped to a fork blade. I used a...
I had a light on my '85 touring bike fork for several years. Actually, it was mounted on an aluminum arm extending from the top of the front left pannier rack....
I realize with some antennas the length of the feed line is critical for their efficiency. What about a vhf/uhf with NMO mount? Can I cut the feed line to a...
... As you said, it depends on the antenna, not the type of mount. More data is needed. Best source of information would be the antenna manufacturer. They do ...
As with the vast majority of antennas, a simple V/U self resonant antenna will not be influenced by any particular length of feedline. Joe N1KHB In a message...
On both my bikes I now have RG-58 cables with BNC connectors zip tied to my upper frame tube semi permanently. I normally mount the TH-D7 and Magellan Gold GPS...
