Well, it requires machining custom piston-style capacitors from brass rod, and teflon rods... If you don't have access to a lathe, it could be a very expensive approach to the issue. I will post a "how-to" article for the RBTIP page when everything has been proven and tested. So far, I only have one of the filters. It is currently under stability testing, and will take time to evaluate the design.
I am ordering more teflon rod stock, which has to be shipped to the UK for machining by my counterpart in the experiment.. Brian has been extremely helpful, and I could not have gotten this far without his expertise. I will keep folks on the list up to date with our progress... but it will be a while before I am ready to publish anything.. For the time being.. initial results are looking very promising!! 73 Mike Perryman www.k5jmp.us -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Robin Midgett Sent: Tuesday, April 18, 2006 6:45 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [Repeater-Builder] Re: Dayton Hamvention Hi Mike, I'm interested in your efforts..I'm planning to build some 6m heliax duplexers...please share.
