Roof Mount Antenna Install
This is a basic run through of installing a roof mounted antenna on a modern vehicle. The vehicle in question is a 2013 GMC Sierra Crew Cab. Though the installation is of a Panorama Sharkee all-in-one antenna (GPS, Cellular, 2.4/4.9 GHz and optional whip).

Jim Crash
มุมมอง 1169 ปีที่แล้ว
We took a weekend trip up to Ski Apache and decided to take the Go Pro's. It was a little icy. Jim took his mile long skis circa 1985 (by the time I started skiing shaped skis were in). It was a little icy (hard packed according to the locals) and he went down a few times and caught it from different POV's.

Making BNC Jumpers
มุมมอง 1469 ปีที่แล้ว
Short video of how quick jumpers can be made with tools made to strip and crimp RF connectors on coaxial cable. The cable size is RG-58 (.195" dia) and the cable being used it RG-142 (double shield RG-58). Found I didn't have enough jumpers for tuning duplexers laying around...so I made this real quick (not my best time but you can get the picture).

Rohn 25G Tower Installation
มุมมอง 161K10 ปีที่แล้ว
This video demonstrates the basic principles for installing a Rohn style tower using a Gin Pole, small ground crew and a man on tower. This uses safety practices that are no longer up to OSHA standards for tower work, however the lineman's belt method allows for the most moment on this size of tower. Any climbing is done at the operator's risk, period.

Just How Tough is a GoPro?
มุมมอง 42910 ปีที่แล้ว
Just how tough is a GoPro? Would it survive close proximity of an explosion? For the record, wasn't trying to blow up the barrel...just trying to get lift off. Made an inverse cone to disperse the force into the barrel evenly, ended up with a shaped charge. My GoPro was sitting atop the barrel. So just how tough is a GoPro when it comes to explosives...I'll let you know if mine ever shows back up.

Portable Repeater

It was built out of SM50 radios, a mobile duplexer and a 16-pin interconnection cable. It's setup for mobile use but I figured I'd try it as a portable setup and lug it up a 6 story fire station training tower. The antenna is two elements off a DB420. Running 12W out of the duplexer.

    I have a short 40 foot one with one small antenna on it not guyed. My tall one is a HDBX 85 foot free standing I always feared my kid would get the tractor into the guy wires and pull it all down ! Being in the metal fab biz I have a friend with a large boom truck that has I think a 120 foot reach with the jib folded out makes it a lot easier!
