Tony,
What's to back up at a site already supported by both solar and wind? Is
there a temp below which the PV panels won't produce or the wind turbine won't
turn? Deep snow covering the PV panels?
I guess my preference, for a number of reasons, would be to have a way to
remotely invoke an

I need a quick reply to this very pressing question. I have an HF
antenna tuner that uses 2 roller inductors and 1 large air variable
cap, versus the more popular arrangement of 2 varicaps and 1 inductor.
What is the 2 inductor - 1 capacitor arrangement called? Certainly
not a T-Match
Sounds like a T match L-C-L tuner. The advantage would be that it is a
low-pass tuner that attenuates harmonics.
This was important in the old days when rigs put out harmonics. I got
a pink slip as a novice years ago for being on the 40 meter band when
I was suppose to be on 80 meters.
Thanks for the reply

In Montana on top of deep snow mountains, we used thermal-electric generators
run from
propane. Worked great and was very very safe.

For those of you that are interested in the community repeater manual, Eric
Lemmon has volunteered to scan it. I'll be sending it to him this weekend,
along with some other specialized Micor manuals including PURC, Digital PURC
(DRC), and Multiple PL.

For those whom are scanning manuals, what program is used to mosaic the
larger foldouts into one 'page'? If someone says GIMP, then I'm game!
I have several manuals that will be copied and then probably recycled,
so I'd like to know what folks are doing...

Hi folks,
Anybody have a schematic for a Micor low band
mobile? I need schematics for the Exciter, PA,
and the control board that sits between the TX
RX.
Thanks!

Benjamin,
There is no need to mosaic anything. The key is to use a commercial scanner
that has a throat of at least 48, so that long foldout sheets can be
scanned in one pass directly into PDF. Such machines are very expensive,
and would normally be found only at a commercial graphics house.
What /I/ can add, is that the FCC has said that if you want privacy for your
communications, then encrypt them. Clear voice is available to anyone with the
appropriate receiver. No, I can't find my source for this, I've read all the
Daily Digests for the last 5+ years, and I believe it was in a

I use a Fujitsu flatbed scanner at work that also has an automatic document

I was surprised how well the scan stitch worked, it even has fine skew controls.
I'm more interested in an OCR program that will spit out regenerated
text with the correct font and in the right places for a PDF.
Thanks Jeff. I've been meaning to do that as well, but just haven't gotten
around to it...
My apologies to Eric and the group for my negligence.

Hello Allan
As you note it would take a good deal of work to go from 154 to 220Mhz.
Yes the loops would have to be shortened and the harness would have to be be
reworked-shortened. This would be easier than changing to 144Mhz. I have done
this twice in the past. 73 de Tom Manning
Tom,
Perhaps you could enlighten everyone who read these discussions with your
success in modifying a DB224 from the 150-162 range to the 220-225 range.
You are the first I have ever heard of having done this.
I know I would be particularly interested in the harness transmission lines
