No, I meant _besides_ the car :-)
I read this in QST but I'm gonna go for it anyway. How can they
prove that I was xmittin 10+ watts? I'm not going to keep the
car past the warranty period anyway.
I only need 4-6 amps for this brick so I decided to get it from the
fuse block behind the coin box. This way I can take it apart
when^H^H^H^H if I blow the computer.
Thanks & 73s
Steve

>Why is most man-made noise vertically polarized?
(quick-and-dirty explaination follows):
It's mostly a function of how the noise is actually measured. That is,
most man-made noise measurements of interest take place very near ground
level (in a building, car, etc.). Since you're low to the ground, and the
earth is a fairly good conductor at low frequencies (HF), the horizontal
component of the noise electric field gets cancelled out due to the
boundary condition imposed by the earth (same physics as vertical electric
fields reflect without phase reversal, but horizontal ones phase shift 180
degrees). So in the process of observing these noise fields, only the
vertically polarized ones exist at the measurement points.
If you went up in the sky and measured the same quantity, you'd find both
polarizations.

I received my no-code Technician license yesterday (took only six
weeks). Now I need a radio (and to learn CW).
I don't know where to start. 2m handheld? A multiband base station for
the home (listen, learn, copy CW, etc.).
Only limit is money. I need to get into the hobby as inexpensively as
possible. If you have advice or maybe a "deal" on a good piece of
gear, please send me email: jjacobs@uswnvg.com
73, Thanks,
Jeff - KC7FUP
