"When studying the HAM workbooks from ARRL, I found a few inconsistency in statements, example one of many: Is there a reason why HAM's use 40 meters (or other band) at 7.125 kHz (or other frequency) then say the antenna should be 34.5 feet" ========== Since day one, the bands have been described by their wavelength in meters, hence "40 meters". "7.125 kHz" is clearly a typo error. It should say "7.125 MHz". For some years now, ARRL publications have gone metric. Antenna lengths given as "34.5 feet" would have "10.5m" in parentheses immediatelly after it. 73, de Earl, K6SE _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
