marcspaz Posted September 5, 2022 Report Share Posted September 5, 2022 Speaking of how smart someone is... A neutron walks into a bar and says "Bartender... I'll have a beer." The bartender says "Sure" and slides him a beer. The neutron said "Thanks! What do I owe you?", and the bartender replied "For you? No charge!" kerstuff, axorlov, Sshannon and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sshannon Posted September 5, 2022 Report Share Posted September 5, 2022 3 hours ago, KAF6045 said: However, the GMRS regulations specify an ERP of 0.5W -- not a radio output of 0.5W (1-7, the original GMRS interstitials, are also now specified in ERP). That means that use of a "gain antenna" (gain over dipole, or more than 2.1dBi) is going to result in an ERP greater than the regulations allow. If you use an antenna with 3dBd gain, the radio output will have to be 0.25W to be "legal". I enjoyed this reminder. We don’t all need to be quite so ready to find fault with each other even when we’ve gotten on each other’s nerves in the past. And I really appreciate Marc’s humor! marcspaz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axorlov Posted September 6, 2022 Report Share Posted September 6, 2022 Two antennas met on a roof, fell in love and got married. The ceremony wasn’t much, but the reception was excellent. Sshannon, MichaelLAX and marcspaz 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
