1700FT TOWER CLIMB (To Change a Light Globe)

Hello and welcome back..... Something I have always wanted, a huge tower with all my antennas on it..... But, what happens when the little light on the top goes 'bink'? .
You wont get me climbing up there, but these guys do.
Stunning Video, make sure you go HD and fullscreen :)

U.S ARMY HELICOPTER STARTUP AND TAKEOFF

Hello and welcome back.... Found this interesting, several U.S Army Helicopters starting up and taking off....  The sounds are amazing.
Helicopters inc EC-145/UH-72 Lakota, Boeing AH-64 Apache, Sikorsky UH-60M Blackhawk, and the Boeing CH-47F Chinook.
Enjoy

AIRLINE COMPANYS

Hello and welcome back.... I had a brain snap this morning, after programing my Alinco handheld Scanner and turning it into a Aircraft radio, I noticed that all the company Frequencies for most Aircraft are all over the place....
Which is ok if you just want... say, Qantas frequencies but what if you want all of them in one spot....
Well, Here it is.

RURAL FIRE SERVICE CAR

Hello and welcome back...... This Rural Fire Service car was parked at a local school. What caught my eye was the 2 large VHF Antennas on the front bonnet skirts.
Most RFS frequncies are UHF, could be to liaise with NPWS... Time to do some homework :)

SORRY, the photos are from my very old IPhone and not the best quality

MAKE YOUR OWN ANTENNA

Hello and welcome back..... This looked interesting, Its from a Magazine called 'Siliconchip'.
Build your own Collinear Antenna mainly for Aircraft but you can change the lengths to change Frequencies.... Best of all, Its from parts you probably have already around the house, mostly Coax and PVC Piping.... Check it out.

Thanks to  SILICONCHIP.COM.AU for the info
