Hi All,<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
<\/div>\n
As you may already know we will have our yearly supper at the Razzy’s Roadhouse pub on 161 St.Peters road at 6pm “this Saturday<\/u>“. It will give us a change to review our lighthouse activation and talk about next years. Should be tons of fun.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
This year I will be giving a 2 hour lecture on how our HF radios deals with transmitting power to the antenna.<\/div>\n
Location is<\/u>:University of Prince Edward Island, Faculty of Sustainable Design Engineering<\/span><\/p>\n
\n

Building #30 (https:\/\/files.upei.ca\/map.pdf<\/a>) – Room 128A<\/span><\/p>\n

Parking at MacLauchlan Arena<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Here are the items:<\/div>\n
1.\u00a0 \u00a0 Conditions needed for the radio to transmit all its power (100 watts).<\/div>\n
2. \u00a0 Definition of impedance with the relationship to a dummy load.<\/div>\n
3.\u00a0\u00a0 Explanation of resonance.<\/div>\n
4. \u00a0 Why an antenna will work its best at resonance.<\/div>\n
5. \u00a0\u00a0Electrical efficiency<\/u>\u00a0of antenna. This is easy to understand.<\/div>\n
6. \u00a0 The great effect of the earth on an antenna. This is important to understand.<\/div>\n
7. \u00a0\u00a0Radiation efficiency<\/u>\u00a0of antenna. This is how much power is actually radiated.<\/div>\n
8. \u00a0 Effects of various angles of radiation vs contacts.<\/div>\n
9. \u00a0 Horizontal vs vertical antennas.<\/div>\n
10. Why keeping it simple is the best.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Extra Items:<\/div>\n
SWR<\/div>\n
Antenna tuners<\/div>\n
Serial matching of antennas<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Any question let me know. If you want specific items to talk about that will benefit all let me know.<\/div>\n
