    Also my six year old daughter asked me a while back if ham radio was only for boys, and I told her no and showed her your channel, now she wants to get her ham license. Hopefully she'll stick to it, it'd be nice to not be the only ham nerd in my family.

    Nice tip on HFTA, will definitely be using that to get a better picture of what my antenna is doing.

    Forward gain over a given isotropic baseline is still gain. It's forward gain by manipulating directional concentration. As for the California KW, Australia is pushing for 400 to 1000w change on HF. It's great to see more women getting into this hobby too. Good video.

    Very interresting and well explained! The little reference on the finite amount of available energy (and the fact that we cannot create energy, but only exploit the ones that are already pre-existing) was very relevant.
    By the way, I like the Siglent SDS1202X-E in the background, though. A very good value for the money for this 2 channels / 200 MHz oscilloscope loaded with functionalities.

    Thanks for keeping the lesson simple ma'am, also they use decibels to measure sound.

    Question? Just acquired my General ham radio licence...purpose for distance traveling, safety, emergency and etc. Do I need a HF 100watt output mobile radio. And if so, for better reception, can I locate two antennias front and rear of my vehicle. I understand using matching antennia cables with a split cable connection. Your insight deeply appreciated. Thank you.

    • @n2rj
      @n2rj  2 года назад +1

      Generally, no. A car doesn’t offer enough space to phase antennas to combine for better reception or transmission.

    Great video... - Thank you. I really enjoy your channel, you can take a complicated subject and 'dumb it down' for those of us who need the 'dumbed down version' ;) I'm thinking about upgrading the antenna in my back yard. What vertical HF multi-band antenna would you recommend?

    Please don't boot me or think that iam awkward or weird for stating this , but I have a big thing for nerdie chicks with 👓. I always have . Thats why I watch your videos. I know you are probabley saying well ok Mr. weirdo. I really enjoy your videos. I probabley freaked you out by admitting that but at 33 iam getting to old to be careful anymore. And I know that there is nothing for me out there anyways. Ok well I should shut up cause I probabley weirded you out , but I really, really love chicks with big brains.

If only I still had my ps1 I know thatsbworth some money now. All I have is two left over game carriages from super nintendo and the original nes and at the time nintendo 64 was the big thing. I got the yard sale specials from my mom. And I was happy untill I saw a friends 64.
