Joe Devonshire AB1YO New Jersey Radio Amateur Receives InternationalAstronomical League's Gold Certification Blair Hearth, KD2EPA, of Oceanport,New Jersey, has joined the select group of individuals who have receivedGold certification in the Radio Astronomy Observation program of theInternational Astronomical League for making at least 10 galactic observations.Hearth, who already had qualified forSilver certification, used the InfoAge Science History Museum's TLM-18 dish for a few of his observations, butmost were accomplished by using Amateur Radio equipment to scan the void. Amember of the Garden State Amateur Radio Association and the Society ofAmateur Radio Astronomers, Hearth was the recipient of the ARRL HudsonDivision Technical Achievement Award in 2015 for his work in radio astronomy andRFI. As Hearth explains on his QRZ.com profile: "I use a low-frequencyreceiver to collect data that indicates sudden ionospheric disturbances. Myvenerable The TLM-18 dish atInfoAge. Kenwood R-600 receiver isdedicated to receiving Jovian radiation at 20.1 MHz. I also monitor and countmeteors via radio reflection using a NooElec 2 dongle, SDR#, and HDRFFTsoftware. I attempt observations of extra-solar radio objects in the 408MHz 'band' using GNU Radio, an excellent LNA, and a DB8 bow-tieantenna." Hearth said he uses the TLM-18 60-foot dish for research into "the velocityof the sun with respect to the Local Standard of Rest." He also will takepart in data-gathering during the August solar eclipse. Hearth will delivera presentation, "How to Use Ham Radio Gear to Do Radio Astronomy," at theInternational Astronomical League's 2018 international meeting. He enjoysQRP operating and has a WSPR beacon on 20 meters. BlairHearth, KD2EPA. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

It was very sad from the standpoint of the customer's and of course the employees. I was there a couple of times over the last few week's of operation, bought some things at incredibly low prices and talked to some of the customers. Not that RS had much of what I needed over the last 10 years or so, they did have some things and even-though it tended to be pricey, I could get that role of solder if I needed it. Now, it's all memories and mail order for me. Does anyone remember the RS Dictionary of Electrical Terms? Thick book about the size of War and Peace? Imagine how much that has changed since it went out of print.

Tried the re-repaired speaker tonight (see previous message below for background). It wasn't pretty! Sent it back to the fellow who repaired it. Says he played it for hours to "break it in". Says that he got the freq response down to 55Hz from the original 72Hz. It sounds no different, after the break in, from the original repair. It looks like the problem may be that the spider is too stiff, limiting the travel of the cone. Any ideas?? I'll probably just give my customer the speaker from my Zenith 7S-529, "eat" the repair cost and put that speaker in the 7S-529 for display. So after all the pluses and minuses, I lost money on this repair. Perhaps I can eek a learning experience out of this. Nah!

I think I know more about electronic parts being used as props than I do on how electronics actually work. I remember when I lived in Ohio there was a travelling tour of props and costumes from the movie on display at the Toledo Museum of Art. The show was called the Magic of Myth. I have film pictures of it somewhere. I remember seeing a pair of prop binoculars. I think they were the ones from A New Hope where Luke looks out at the binary sunset looking for R2-D2. I remember my dad pointing out that the adjustment knob appeared to be the base of a vacuum tube with the pins cut down short.

I've spent a lot of time reading about prop building. There is plenty of radio parts used for props in lots of popular movies - Star Wars, Back to the Future, Ghostbusters, etc. Anyway, enjoy your useless knowledge for the day!

The variable cap is a 2 gang with each having the same capacitance value. I can't disassemble it due to the push-button assembly on either side of it. Using my magnifier, I can not see any contact on the blades. Here's the problem... it is shorting when it gets just past half closed. I get the same reading on both sides. Also, I disconnected the leads to it so nothing else will influence it. So, aside from not having the blades short, what else could be causing it to short at exactly the same point on both sides? I have no loose metal bits, wire, solder, etc... visible on either side. Tonight, just to see if it would change anything, I tried compressed air to clear it out. Still no change. Since it shorts at exactly the same point on each side, I'm thinking it's possibly in the moving area of the shaft. Does anyone have any thoughts on what else I could try, or to look for? I haven't tried any chemistry on it and that would be my last resort. If I can't clear this up, the radio will be mostly useless. Thanks for any help you can offer.
