Building Antennas: just remember KENS EASY ANTENNA FORMULA: 54mHz=54 inches.
Forget those difficult antenna book formulas involving square roots etc--just compare the frequency for your antenna project--to that 54mHz=54 inches for a Quarter-Wave! Use a calculator for simple division & multiplication: Results 3mHz=81 feet; 9mHz=27 feet; 27mHz=108 inches; 108mHz=27 inches; 162mHz=18 inches; 486mHz=6 inches. A Half-Wave dipole has a Quarter-Wave Length each direction from the center insulator--so a 54mHz dipole has 54 inches each side of center =9 feet overall.

Surplus Radio Free Technical Repair Tip: Motorola Syntor-X trunk mounted "110 Watt" trunk mounted (1975-1985) police/fire/business radios can be used for Ham FM operation even though the Motorola Software to reprogram the E-PROM doesn't cover ham bands! Contact "john73west@yahoo.com " to get this done. The Low Band version can cover both the 10-Meter and 6-Meter Bands, the High Band version can operate on 2-Meters, & the UHF version can operate on the 70CM band. They come with 2, 4, 8, or 16 channel control heads; but they can have 32, 64, or even 128 channels; with switchable output of 1W, 10W, & 100W (up to 150W). The buffer IC =NTE74LS367 may need replacement.
