When Electricity Doesn’t Take The Shortest Path

Everyone knows that the path of least resistance is the path that will always be taken, be it by water, electricity or the feet of humans. This is where the PCB presented by [ElectrArc240] on YouTu…

I think I'm finally starting to understand the reactance part of #impedance . You can increase the reactance by adding an inductor (X = jωL; ω = 2πf) and lower it by adding a capacitor (X = 1/(jωC)). You can use networks of variable capacitors and inductors if you want to adjust that (which affects SWR) while transmitting at the frequencies you want. :3c

And once you're done, you can replace those with fixed capacitors and inductors because you'll know what works! :D

Coax Stub Filters Demystified

Unless you hold a First Degree RF Wizard rating, chances are good that coax stubs seem a bit baffling to you. They look for all the world like short circuits or open circuits, and yet work their ma…
