[SOC] getting out

[John Davies]

Hello Charlie,

yeah the man with the Yagi had obviously not done his homework.

Everyone knows that RF is a funny thing  and you should always remember that it squirts out of Yagi's in odd places unless the holes are properly plugged with traps etc

>I sold radio stuff at hamfests in mid west.  I sold out of 2000 ft of SILVER colored jacket RG-8 in two hamfests.  The black jacketed wasnt touched.



>Sold a 3 el yagi to a man who called back to complain he could not "get" EU  and instead got Canada.  Discovered he thot tthe RF went out the ends of the elements (like >your water example) so he pointed it so that the ends would point toward EU.

>(Dont know if he was using a flat map or a globe either.)



>Two true stories.
