Forgive me if this has been asked before, but I can't find mention of it in the archives. I have the chart for recommended long wire lengths, with the ...
Hi there Boyd, The best lab/field tested loop for the SGC coupler is an 80' loop. This loop can be homebrewed easily and is modeled after the same antenna in...
... Thanks for the feedback, Dave. I have a reason for my question, though, because I'm virtually positive that the shortest path I can take through the trees...
Hi Boyd, Yes, that is good, more wire = a bigger ear and at the same time a louder voice. I would like a tennis ball launcher, and with that, a giant loop...
I was discussing antennas with a friend recently, and the advantage of an antenna coupler was not clear to him. He had a simple coax fed dipole, tuned for 40...
THe 80 ft loop recommended by SGC is a great compromise for multi- band operation when using a coupler. However, in portable operations I've had superior DX...

Dudes The post about coax and it's losses set me thinking about feeders again. I know some people have smartuned various antenna fed with 450 ohm or open ...
OK, all you experts - I need a hand solving this problem.please. I have an sg-239 and I put it in a container (similar to Zest Red Tomato's version) and...
I think the way the unit is designed all you need to do if feed it with a length of coax and terminate it on the (+/-) lugs. Then connect the 100' of wire to ...
Hello everyone, so long as my sg-239 is working properly (re: last email I posted), I would like to fabricate an antenna that radiates ground wave pattern on...
Paul Good suggestions so far ... some things to consider 1. While you got the click, have you tested the coupler into a dummy load at the frequencies and modes...
I would call SGC tech support. I have found them to be verey helpful. ... __________________________________ Yahoo! Music Unlimited Access over 1 million...
I've been looking for an answer to this question, and I've been unsuccessful so far. I can now supply more input, so maybe someone can help or point me in the...
I've just bought an Sg-237 (having borrowed one and been pleased) and I intend to build my own SmartLock Anyway, my lead has coax and red, black, white with...
White/Red is Reset/Hold +12 to hold, Ground to reset tuner. White/Green is status LED output, signal goes to ground when active. Enjoy, Ron WA5VFA _____ From:...
Dudes I dont know how practical this will be but I think its worth a thought if possible. At each corner of your loop, instead of a permanent attachment, have...
Thank you - guess my eyesight is not what it was - Roger the White/Green :-) On 14/10/05 9:44 am, "Smartuners@yahoogroups.com" ... -- What is the purpose of...
Cross posted to Buddipole, Smartuners and Live-Wire, Hi all, A concept for mobile use is shown in the link below. The disadvantage is low hanging brush. ...
... Not a concept, but actually in use: http://texasnative.com/images/WB3AKD-web.jpg This is the vehicle driven by our Emergency Coordinator here in Loudoun ...
I'm looking for a minty, like-new SG-230 with the original box, papers etc. Anyone who has one please reply offlist to ron at wa5vfa.com Will also consider an...
... No Buddipole, just 3x3 hollow steel bar (I think), cut and welded to form the inverted U. I know he has a tuner on it, but I don't believe he's ever told...
Hi Boyd, I put Google to work and went sniffing out WB3AKD's mobile unverted "U" that you pointed us to below [Different than the concept presented yesterday...
To Live-Wire and Smartuners, Just thinking, a mobile long wire with a light duty winch to control the antenna and a small drag chute to carry the wire out to...
