Re: [MBZ] AM/FM antennas

The horizontal legs on the T antennas that came with stereo receivers were
around 30-31 inches long as best as I can remember, but maybe I'm off a few
inches. 

A quick web search tells me they should be 28.65" when wire end effects are
included in the calculation. 

A simple chunk of twinlead wire, separated for the last 28.7", should do just
fine. 

Or you can just buy one:

[MBZ] AM/FM antennas

2016-12-23 Thread Curley McLain via Mercedes 
I have my auntieQ Pioneer SX-2500 fired up.  It obviously needs external 
antennas.  If my memory is correct, for AM, all that is needed is a 
single strand wire.  That would be simple enough.


Back in the day, the Pioneer receivers were shipped with a T shaped FM 
antenna that was about 10' tall and about 6' wide made of flat 2 wire tv 
antenna wire.Is flat wire still available or is there a place to buy 
those FM antennas?  Is there a simple way to build your own FM antenna?  
Is the T design necessary?

[MBZ] AM/FM

2013-10-12 Thread Mountain Man 
Why are these radio spectrums political?
i.e. I can hear conservative chatter on AM
i.e. I can hear progressive chatter on FM
Why?
Or is this merely a function of Illinois radio?

Liberal / Progressive talk radio has been tried a number of times.. It has
failed each time.

Apparently the 4 D Rule... Deceive, Deny, Delay, Deflect does not sell well
in any time slot with advertisers or listeners.

But. What difference does it make  You didn't build that
