Re: A955 = λ

Charlie T, K3ICH
Instead of typing out "lambda", just hold down the "ALT" key and type 955
= λ

Same for :
Alt 171 = ½
Alt 172 = ¼
Alt 0216 = Ø
Alt 227 = π
Alt 234 = Ω

There's lots more where those came from...

73, Charlie k3ICH

Counterpoises are good.

Also very helpful is to adjust total length of flattop and feedline to be
an odd multiple of Lambda/4 for the bands of interest. This keeps max RF
voltage peaks out of the shack. Not always convenient to do if you want
multiple bands.

Re: A955 = λ

Hi all,

No, please don't use anything beyond the 0x20 to 0x7E standard ASCII characters range. There are too many different delivery options for these messages to reliably render anything outside this range correctly. I am using marc.info to read messages and Nabble to respond to them.  Using fancy email clients to create HTML codes for the standard ASCII apostrophe and quotation marks is also an irritating, but common "feature" on this reflector.

Good advice from Charlie, K3ICH.

Check the following website:
www.asciitable.com/index/extend.gif

Scroll down to "Extended ASCII Codes"

Hold the "ALT" key and type the three-digit number on the right-hand-side
number pad on a standard keyboard (not the numbers across the top of the
keyboard - I have not yet figured out how to access the number pad on the
reduced-size laptop keyboard).  Good idea to print the section.  Very
useful for tech- and language-writing in WORD.

Cheers,

Alan V31FA

Re: A955 = λ

Andy McMullin
But much better advice from Knut.

Wonderful if you're in the limited group of Word users under Windows. Not so useful for the much larger group of email users on every platform.

Sorry if there are any typos,
this is sent from my iPad
