    Display = Field Strength & % AM

    Flyingron, Yes, that would be nice to have on our field. Although 8W5 is a public use but privately owned, by 41 family/members of APOIA, we get NO, ZERO, in any sort of government help to fund such a device as a SuperUnicom. In fact we all pay more in property taxes to have the privilege to...

    Display = Field Strength & % AM

    Jim, I still have a fair selection of Ge transistors US & Japanese made + many peanut tubes with docs too.... You are one of the last techs that designs & builds at the discreet component level. I appreciate that & like reading your AEROlectrics column. 1952 is about when I got started in...

    Display = Field Strength & % AM

    I am glad that the Denverpilot got a good laugh out of this. Send me the $$$$ for the unit you believe would work the Best. I'll get it installed. Since I am on SSI & have minimal funds to waist, I felt that a display with IDIOT LIGHTS would be the least expensive & most likely I have the...

    Display = Field Strength & % AM

    I was hoping to get this directed to Jim Weir, who has his AERO'lectrics in the Kitplanes , since his writ up says to visit this site. I have a challenge for you. I live at an Airpark & monitor our frequency (122.80mc) & see a need to place at our run-up pad an indicator for our pad. I hear...

    INTERESTING!! The closest automated system I have found is Port Townsend 0S9 where you key 3 times & it will give you ATIS. One can get an idea of field strength by how far out when keying for ATIS. I do not know of any Superawos out here in the Pacific Northwest = Seattle area. I can imagine...

    Display = Field Strength & % AM

    Not familiar with a "superawos" . How does that, at a run-up pad, let a pilot know just how his transmitter is getting out & it he/she is over/under modulated?? With pilot renters, using their head sets in a rented A/C, that are different from the head set that the % modulation was adjusted to...

    Display = Field Strength & % AM

    I have searched & E-mailed Jim Weir (has a column in Kitplanes magazine = Aero'litics) about a display that I would like to build & place @ our run-up pad on our airpark. The reason is; Aircraft VHF (108 to 139mc)is Amplitude Modulation & simplex Transmitters/pilots/crew have NO idea what they...
