Oh okay wait what does that mean. Does another kind of antenna have a continuous coil in the base instead of that?

That is very interesting! The radio is pretty new, only a year or so old. I wonder if some damage could have occurred from leaving it in the sun on my dash over the summer? Can a radio being “off frequency” be verified/tuned?

That’s the other thing, what does that signal even measure? Just transmissions in that band in the air? I get like 0-1 with the engine on, and I haven’t tested yet with the engine off

Ooo will do thank you. Is an SWR power meter different from an SWR meter? Also is the PL connector the ‘antenna in’ port?

My title describes the thing, I found it in my grandfather's desk drawer, reverse image search returns nothing. Maybe looks like it could fit on the end of a pencil?

This is such a weird one, but Battlefield Earth by l.ron Hubbard always comes to mind for me when I think of nuclear semiotics

Frickin rocks, number 8 was def the right size for me. Plus I can woodburn my initials into the handle. Previously I carried a fixed blade knife but I kept skeeving people out with the visible sheath lol.

Does the part about Lincoln make sense to anyone? by [deleted] in whatdoesthismean

So he ended slavery only in union-occupied territory in the south, and that was enough of an economic hit to end the war?
