Thanks to some off list replies My logging program (which means me as well) is apparently incorrect and this is a south shetland Q. Though I liked the idea of it being Antarctica as my father as a young ham made contact with Byrds expedition. However, I also need South Shetlands on TB so I'm still most happy.

It seems strange to me that any company would advertise having legal troubles. Interesting strategy, to say the least. Good for them! Glad to see things back in action.

RI1ANF is So. Shetland IS for sure and stated this a few times on other bands. I am not sure if this counts for Antartica or not ( I suspect not!).

Re: Topband: RI1ANF
Here's an interesting story: In the early 90's, I worked as a ship-board radio officer. At one of the training conferences, I met a fellow RO who also worked at the McMurdo Antarctic base when he wasn't on ships. During one of our (many and frequent) conversations after hours at the hotel bar, he mentioned an odd propagation mode at 5 kHz which only seemed to be present from pole-to-pole. The physics of this propagation are still unclear to me, but the salient point is that he also described the antenna. It was a simple dipole, cut for resonance, and strung for miles along the icecap. Ice is a good insulator, and the ice cap is thick enough to give a ground mounted dipole reasonable height even at VLF. At 160m, a dipole on the ice would act as though it were essentially in free-space. Feel free to fact check me on this. I was young. We were sailors. And we were drinking. :-) But it does bode well for helping Herb get his Antarctic merit badge some day. -Jeff W0ODS From: Herb Schoenbohm he...@vitelcom.net To: g...@ka1j.com Cc: Topband@contesting.com Sent: Thursday, May 31, 2012 3:55 PM Subject: Re: Topband: RI1ANF You have me excited for a moment as I need Antarctica on 160.

Re: Topband: Topband Digest, Vol 113, Issue 46
Jeff, I believe the prop mode you are taking about it called ANTIPITAL PROPAGATION it is like a focusing mirror. There is a story about Ben Franklin in one of the early sessions of congress. Being the scientist he was he found a spot in the capitol, a particular location where he would place is seat. He did this because he could hear his adversaries on the other side of the room plotting their strategies. Why did this happen well because the ceiling of the capitol was a giant dome and acted like a parabolic reflector and the audio bounced off the ceiling to his ears. Dont believe me.. Go to Captian Georges resturant in Virginia beach and sit in one of their domed rooms out front and you can hear people talking on the other side of the room. I think there is a more comon name for this mode but cant remember what is is now.. and there have been several masters research papers published about it. I have one of them published by Pipp et al but have never scanned it in .. it is somewhat large. I intend to put it on my web sit at some point... a job for the future I guess. By the way this works for any place in the world .. supposedly.. take your lat/lon and subtract 180 deg from it and if it hits land your in luck .. look for stations from that area. Hummm I wonder if the other name was Antipode focusing.. not sure anymore.

Re: Topband: HI-Z BACK IN BUSINESS
Today's trial lawyers are not sleeping dogs but hungry predators. You let them rest and you will be their next meal. You see their ads on TV every hour willing to litigate on everything imaginable. Who pays for this? We do...the consumer gets intercoursed so trial lawyers get rich and famous. Now lets ratchet back to the 50's and 60's when two superb individuals, both were hams, and both were in the same business making broadcast transmitters and also selling systems to the military. They were competitors, both in the Midwest with operations a few hundred miles apart. I knew both well (my office was just across the hall from one of them (Parker Gates) in Quincy, Illinois and the other Art Collins I new when I lived down the road from Cedar Rapids in Iowa City where I was first licensed in 1954. On Saturday mornings Art Collins would open up his warehouse and sell first class comopnents to hams for next to nothing like 4CX250B's for a quarter if they had a bent fin or any other cosmetic imperfection. They would never ever think of suing each other for patent infringement and only argued over a round of golf at the club house. What ever happened to this wonderful Midwestern ethic of friendship and trust? These were two giants in the radio industry who never fought brutal wars like Thomas Edison and Nicoli Tesla or engaged in the corporate warfare that caused Major Edwin Armstrong (inventor of FM Radio) to jump from a NYC high rise because David Sarnoff had political friends that for a time blocking his wonderful inventions. The big three out of Detroit did the same thing to automotive genius Preston Tucker using political power to squash a better idea in building cars. Like they say when elephants fight the grass gets trampled and in our case we all lose and we all have to pay in some manner for this corporate warfare. What a shame.
