What can I say about this photo? To me it looks
like the two of them have been into some kind of mischief, for sure !
Great photo of two great guys! |

Paul is checking out Murray's station, must be a weak
signal coming in, judging from the way Paul is straining to hear the audio
from the speaker!
Can't be a weak signal, just look at the scope, I think that it is Barry's signal (VE3CDX) being displayed on it ! Guess what ? Paul has not found the volume control yet. Hi Hi ...... |

Another Unique Mobile Antenna by Frank
VE3FJH
This coil assembly was picked up at a flea market
for couple of bucks and apparently came out of a broadcast transmitter.
The diameter is 5.25 inches and the length is 10 inches. The material is
edgewound silver plated copper strip.

Still another Tuneable HF mobile antenna, this one
using the "Ray-D-8" System by Spillsbury & Tindall. This antenna covers
75 meters to 20 meters by means of a cable (much like a throttle cable)
which slides the above pictured assembly, consisting of 7 ferrite cores,
14 brass cores through a 1 3/8 inch diameter coil 21 5/8 inches in length.
The base impedance remains a constant 50 ohms at resonance. Total length
of the antenna is less than 10 feet. The absence of contacts to the coil
make this a very reliable antenna for use on all types of vehicles ....
trucks ,tractors, locomotives, snowmobiles, passenger cars, etc.
