Thanks Best talking beam i ever had.

10/150 pf sorry it took so long to answer

RMS is not more valuable, there are literally 1000's of misinformed "experts" out there. RMS and PEP are two different types of measurements. Both are measuring power output, but all these people using a Bird RMS Meter to measure the output of their radios while modulating the signal (talking/whistling) should be using a Bird PEP meter. An RMS meter should only be used to measure the power of an unmodulated signal (deadkey).... and a PEP meter should be used when you want to measure the peak power of a modulated signal (talking/test tone/whistle/etc). I will try and give an explanation about the difference and why the 2 different measurements matter. Hopefully you know what a deadkey is ! Now we start testing... So you key your mic and you do not make any noise, and an RMS meter shows that you have a 4 watt signal. So great, you have a 4 watt RMS signal, and that would be correct. Now hold your old noisy ticking Timex watch up to your mic and have your mic gain all the way up so your mic and radio hear the tick. Now every time the watch ticks your RMS meter barely moves up to show you 5 watts. Then we modify your watch so it ticks really fast! Now your RMS meter shows you 8 watts. Great, so the RMS meter shows us 4, 5, and 8 watts. So did your peak power change? NOPE Now lets do those same tests with a PEP meter. When we deadkey the radio with no sound it shows us 4 watts. When the watch ticks slow the PEP meter shows you 16 watts every time the watch ticks, then we modify the watch again so it ticks really fast again, and the PEP meter shows 16 watts. Just Great, so the PEP meter shows us 4, 16, and 16 watts. So the results are, the: RMS meter shows us 4, 5, and 8 watts PEP meter shows us 4, 16, and 16 watts Why? because the PEP meter reacts fast and can detect the peak of the signal. The RMS meter will never show the peak of the signal, but as the watch ticks faster the RMS meter is trying to average the 16 watt pulses with the 4 watt deadkey, The faster the tick the higher the average, but it will never add up to 16. The PEP meter reads the 16 watt peak every time it senses the peak and shows 16, so no matter how fast or slow the tick, it will always show the peak, and in this case the peak is 16 watts on every tick, no matter if the tick is fast or slow, it's still 16 watts PEP. Hopefully that helps. This was just my attempt at a layman's explanation. Don't try this with your watch, I won't be responsible for you modifying your Timex. Even a PEP meter would not be fast enough to detect the tick of the watch properly. My analogy above is accurate, but only an oscilloscope would show the results I describe above properly. People who say only Bird watts matter are misinformed. It gets way more complicated than my explanation above. Modulated signals get complex, and just because a Bird RMS meter shows more watts with one radio setup compared to another radio setup does NOT mean that the one that shows more RMS power has more peak power, or is a cleaner signal, or has more modulation, or gets out better. To truly know what your signal looks like and how much power you have peak and rms, you need both types of meters and an oscilloscope to see if the signal is clean. Even then, how that signal and power gets transmitted out into the air depends on your coax, your antenna, and even your antenna height. PS... if you do not know what RMS and PEP are, just think of RMS as the "average power", and PEP as the "peak power". It is not exactly that simple, but close enough. Watch my video here: ua-cam.com/video/8dMAm0UUlgw/v-deo.html I hope this helps, now let the smoke begin.

Your black and white will be your 110v and green is ground. 110 on white 110 on black.

I don't understand why you would be hooking this up to a battery, the power supply takes the place of the battery.

About 3/4 of a volt or less. Thanks

@@mm555nc9 : Thank you. So, when you showed your voltages here, is that with the pot at full or minimum voltage?

@@TheLonesometoadimportant question!

@@mm555nc9 : one of mine came out perfectly at 14.5. Just where I wanted it. The other one is stuck at 16.89 and I can't change it. So I removed the resistor and is still stuck at 16.89.

Again you didn’t listen to the video,it is directly feed to the gamma and has one inch braid coming off the half inch helix coax going to the driver element. Thanks

You did'nt listen to the video, i did tighen the boom up. and this antenna is the best talking antenna i ever had. 48 years on the air. Thanks P.S. about the vacum varible gamma don't knock till you try it.

Geez really Sherlock

@@jeffhicks2070 That’s right GOOD BUDDY.Go back to your CHILDREN friends on the CHILDREN’S Band where you belong bozo.😂😜🤪

Your welcome thanks for watching.

Not sure what your talking about, but thanks for watching.

Go away Troll.

Looks like someone made it to the 2nd grade from their spelling.😂🎙

He is a dipollock 😅😅

you are correct, this guy doesn't understand the difference between rms, average, peak. hopefully he does by now since this video is already 5 years old.

I do not own that radio any more,there are only a few wires to hook up. Sorry

pin 1 is audio,pin 2 ground, pin 3 is receive,pin 4 transmit. hope this helps.

Full,72 diodes

@@mm555nc9 cool that’s a big one

@@techmelts7860 It was made to run 3 3-500zs,but i upgraded to 2 gs 35b tubes sold it 2 years ago. Thanks

You won't whoop mine ,your ass be running to candy store mudduck 😅😅

Best beam i have had, here in Lumberton NC. Thanks

That's great to hear. 73's down your way

31 feet. Thanks

Very Nice 👍 now that's all a man needs.

@@davidlewis8124 Not as wide banded, i get 1.03 at ch 20 at 40 1.3 at ch 1 i get 1.3 the best talking antenna in 40 years that i ever used. check me out at 6:00 min of this video.ua-cam.com/video/dlAd5vGzEB4/v-deo.html

Talking good like it is, it's in conduit pipe and the SWR is flat. Thanks

@@mm555nc9 okay I couldn't see it looked like the coax is taped to the boom I apologize.

25 watt drive. Thanks

Doing good rooster,got the swr close to flat. Thanks

Whats the reason for that ?

So you don’t have any common mode.

@@woodchuck8197 Don't understand watt your asking.

You would have phasing issue

@@lizzyfan1986 no you wouldn’t. They are in opposite polarity.

Why put a lightning attractor above it. Put Sirio serious antenna instead.

How high for talking skip with a beam?

@@lizzyfan1986 No issue by mounting a vertical ground plane antenna above a horizontal aka flat side beam.

I let it go for 24 hours.
