[Milsurplus] BC-611 to external antenna

[D C *Mac* Macdonald]

Just goes to show the benefits of doing slide
rule calculations using scientific notation, keeping
notes as to where you are, and converting to
basic units (if necessary and/or convenient)
AFTER  all computations have been completed!

| I think you'll find 103.5 volts X 0.035 amps = 3.6225 watts.  That would
| be an efficiency of about 7%.  Hey, what's a couple of decimal places
| among friends? :-)
