For those who may not have known, we gave one each Tech, Gen and Extra exam. All three passed their exams and two were able to stay for the meeting. I mailed the test results Tuesday morning to the Laurel coordinator in Largo and Wednesday night at 8 PM their new license and upgrades were published on line by the FCC. I am extremely thrilled with these results from everyone's efforts. It would be totally discourteous if I failed to mention the individual who was most responsible for all the labor in this whole project.

Please invite your friends to come join the well over 350 people who have taken these courses and earned or upgraded an Amateur Radio license during the last few years. This course will be held on two Saturdays - the 7th and 21st of January, 2012. Both classes will meet at the Hillsborough County Emergency Operations Center, located at 2711 E. Hanna Ave, Tampa, FL 33610. Class will start on both days at 9AM and continue until 5PM. On the 21st of January, testing will begin at 3:30PM. The introductory Technician course will be based around the new "ARRL's Tech Q & A, 5th Edition". This book will be available to borrow at the beginning of the first class. The book associated with this class costs $19.95, and is titled "The ARRL Emergency Communications Handbook". The books will be ordered for you after the first day of class, and will be distributed on the final day. The General Class license upgrade study book will be available to borrow at the beginning of the first class. The take-away book associated with this General upgrade class costs $29.95, and is titled "The ARRL Operating Manual". The Operating Manual will be ordered for you after the first day of class, and will be distributed on the final day. There are no training fees for this class. However, there is a fee of $14 for taking the test, and the books are $19.95 and $29.95, depending upon which class you are taking. You will pay for the test and the book at the start of class. Please bring a government-issued picture ID card with you, as well. The class size is limited - and you can sign up online! In order to properly prepare materials and gauge class sizes, please send an email to training at hcaresraces.org to reserve your seat in this class. If you are unable to attend both sessions of your course, please let us know about that as well - there is some scheduling flexibility for these classes. These classes wrap around a local Amateur Radio activity known as TARCFest, at which you will have the opportunity to browse and purchase amateur radio products, new and used. We'll discuss this optional activity in greater detail during class. Please check www.hcaresraces.org for information related to these classes, as well as other information related to emergency communications in our area. We look forward to seeing you and your friends and family there!

Along with a polyphaser on each coax line, I was thinking about making a window pass through unit kind of like MFJ's with banana jacks on the inside for my feedline connections, so it would be easy whenever I was off the air to just unplug and keep the lightning out of my shiny new rig...

It should be 0 ohms. 2) Have ypu checked both the center conductor and shield of the antenna cable for 0 ohms resistance, and infinite resistance between the center conductor and shield? 3) Have you checked the antenna to make sure it is resonant at or near the frequency you are transmitting at using an antenna analyzer? 4) Have you verified the radio's output power using an external power meter? Other, more obscure things to check are mic gain and transmit modulation percentage. I have all of the test equipment necessary to check these things if you need any of it.I can also help you perform the tests if you want.

If you can remove the antenna from its mounting base and disconnect the radio end of the antenna cable from whatever it is connected to, you can then measure the electrical resistance between the point where the antenna mounts to its base and the vehicle chassis with an ohm meter. It should be 0 ohms. 2) Have ypu checked both the center conductor and shield of the antenna cable for 0 ohms resistance, and infinite resistance between the center conductor and shield? 3) Have you checked the antenna to make sure it is resonant at or near the frequency you are transmitting at using an antenna analyzer? 4) Have you verified the radio's output power using an external power meter? Other, more obscure things to check are mic gain and transmit modulation percentage. I have all of the test equipment necessary to check these things if you need any of it. I can also help you perform the tests if you want.

I'm just hoping that I don't have to relocate the antenna from where I have it, I really like the location on the truck, but if it has to be relocated then so be as long it works right. When can we get together and check this? I can do this on your time as I have lots of time. Again Thanks for your help so far. ? 73 de George/KI4NBE ________________________________ From: George Mann To: LakelandARC at yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday, January 24, 2012 1:47 PM Subject: RE: [LakelandARC] Re: Mobile Antenna Expert needed ?
