Hey, Gilber34, I actually studied under Kraus himself! What did you 
study? Not much as far as I can tell. Sorry but I have to side with jimp 
here. You haven't a clue.

cool, you are one of the priveleged, bet that was great too.
  I studied under Rau, inventer of JPG encoding, (cosign transform) and 
I know RF/uW very well, +patents, got paid big bucks for it too, designs 
and systems worldwide, mil and civilian, Old Crow. (big bucks turned 
into obama dollars, 50% smaller in size far less in value) So I will 
take some to task if they blow it on RF or uW in a large way.

If anyone wants to stay on subject we could discuss something, but pot

LOT of things to remember, and posting in a news group is like chalking

up this time saying over and over "...haven't got a clue"(he's 
projecting again, unconcious self referenceing, still looking for that 
gamma ray parabolic dish antenna)

FYI - I do have a phased array antenna that I will soon sell on ebay, 
goes on an F111, part of terrain following radar, works well about 15 to 
20 GHz, dual feed too, (makes a great clock on the wall) and I have 
another chunck of the radar system that goes with it, receiver mostly, 
dual channel, I think the last of the F111s were burried in Austrailia.
your not going to find any of these antennas anywhere, anymore.

ANYHOW, this is much better that C+Peeing in here with global worming 
lefty green shallow propaganda from some dense fat man in a cube in 
england.

you can side with jimp, like Erdogan sides with Putin, like Trump and

We implemented a JPEG2000 RWT/IWT in silicon.  

You all should get along.  This is a serious 
radio shack and you all should get along.

That said I heartily enjoy the differences 
because those are informed differences of 
opinion.  Informed differences of opinion 
are key and critical for development.  
Please carry on as you see fit.

That said I somewhat despise garbage smack 
talk and you all should get along.  It's OK 
where it's not distracting and as among men 
and as among peers, as it were, show those 
garbage smack faces how small they are instead 
of how easy it is to go so low as them.

All you here should get along just fine, dammit.

One can't get along with those who job it is would be to disrupt and 
derail discussion on certain "forbidden" topics. Or one can't get along 
with those who have a political agenda based upon public respect for 
science and use that respect to attempt to fool the public for political 
and financial gain (Glow-bull warming).

And unfortunately garbage-smack from those activities carries over into 
other subject which aren't political or forbidden, but it is the mere 
ignorance of and misapplication of science of the posters that leads 
them to reject any attempt to correct their errors. Such hard-headed 
nonsense then leads to more garbage-smack.

Yes?

You're an Aussie.  (I surmise this 
from your vocabulary.)

We're looking for "wit", not "twit".

Those are trolls, benj.  Don't bait 
the trolls, and don't bate the bears.

Now back in the interests of "long 
antenna" and keeping it on-topic and 
making sci.physics an uncomfortable 
place for trolls, I have it as falling 
under signal engineering, the design 
and implementation of antennae.  I 
just don't know so much about them and 
op-aps and transistor networks for boost 
and otherwise the amplification of signals 
as resonate the antenna medium then for 
filtering and variously for means of 
reconstruction of the carrier signals 
then the extraction thereof of noise.

That said, I will that _others can learn 
here_, because there's honest, open, and 
ebullient input and output from all these 
emeritus engineers and anyone else who 
cares to sign on to sci.physics and not 
be disgusted away by trolls, sock-puppets, 
nor shifts, fake-nyms, channel hijackers, 
and other dishonest would-be defacers of 
the charter.  

So trolls or toads can go stuff it!

perhaps not gamma ray, but you DO know that X-ray parabolic antennas 
exist, right?

You mean the actual antenna off an F111 for sale as a decorator item? I 
love crap like that!

Much better. The whole problem is this is supposed to be technical 
discussions and the people with political agendas and no technical 
knowledge come in and take it over. For them it's all about WORD GAMES 
and unfortunately that seems to rub off on everyone else here...even me.

using glancing, paraboioids and hyperboioids, not quite the same as a 
dish.  but my point was to counter the over generalization that EM 
frequency being the same.  Still waiting on the size of the 60 HZ dish 
for 20 dB gain...

that was great you studied w Kraus, his book(s) are very clear on the 
complex relationships in antenna design

yes, I bought about 10 of them on ebay, cheap, a group was selling off 
all the stuff this depot level tech accumulated into a wherehouse, they 
did not know it was an antenna, did not take off the cover.  They had 
about 40 of them.

I also got the receiver box for one, not too hard to reverse engineer 
it, but if I got it working, what would i do with it, so....  nada.
THe box is a lot of discrete logic on about 6 large boards, not enough 
support for a mil aircraft imho. (MTBF killer), if you look at the F111 
nose electronics, no wonder lot of large boards, discrete electronics, 
before the implementation of  uP I guess.  or nuclear hard.

I still have 2, one is a wall clock, the other is in garage "ageing" 
with all the other stuff.

the dish is about 8" across.
The AN/APQ-171 is a very large system, low MTBF, boat anker

Pretty large, but the physical size is irrelevant; the gain of a dish
is a function of it's diameter in wavelengths, so the gain of a 3 lambda
60 Hz dish is the same as the gain of a 3 lambda 60 GHz dish.

The only issue with a dish at gamma or X-ray frquencies is that the
dish has to be made of a material that is reflective at those frequencies,
so a 3 lambda dish at X-ray frequencies would have the same gain as
a 3 lambda 60 Hz dish.

as usual, WRONG.

the 60Hz dish would be 17,794,063.6 meters wide or 11,056 miles wide or 
100 times the diameter of the Earth. Impossable to build it at all.

THE PHYSICAL SIZE IS THE ISSUE !

(what size waveguide do you feed a 60 Hz dish with ?)


your max surface roughness at 60GHz is what ?
How much beam taper do you illuminate the edges with to avoid backlobes 
at 60GHz? which would pick up the 60HZ earth very well. What would the 
F/B ratio be to pick up a 60Hz craft 1,000,000,000 miles out ?

which there are not any for a parabolic dish.
what is the max surface roughness you could have ? (hint: 1/4 lamda and 
how much is that?) can anybody do that yet ?
so you are WRONG again, find the answer in ARRL, not.

Nope.

Then why do antenna books have nomographs of dB gain verssus physical
size with straight lines for frequency.

Not in space given enough time and money.

Nope.

Physical size only determines the econonomic practicably, not the RF
characteristics.

> (what size waveguide do you feed a 60 Hz dish with ?)

You assume due to your utter ignorance of antennas and RF in general
that all dishes are fed with waveguide; they are not. It is very
common to feed dishes in the lower microwave region and below with
coax.

> your max surface roughness at 60GHz is what ?

It is perfect because competant people were used to build it and
irrelevant to the fact that antennas scale in frequency.

The same as at 60 GHz.

Which is irrelevant to the fact that antennas scale in frequency.

If you can find a material that is relective at gamma or X-ray frquencies,
then such a dish will perform just the same as any other dish at any
other frequency with the same diameter in wavelengths.

> what is the max surface roughness you could have ? (hint: 1/4 lamda and

The requirements would be the same as any other dish at any other frequency
with the same diameter in wavelengths.

The thing you are utterly unable to understand is that electromagnetic
theory of antennas is frequency independant.

The practical ability to construct a given antenna may change with
frequency, but the electromagnetic theory does NOT.

Wrong.  In what bands is RF treated as primarly magnetic, treated as EM, 
and then treated as partical ?

answer the question, what size waveguide do you feed a 60Hz dish with ?
(since you say RF scales with everything)

so what is the surface roughness ? use rms

and again you are wrong, antennas scale over ranges, not infinities.

Totally wrong, one is easy, the other is impossable.

How thick must your dish be to reflect 60Hz ?

how much beam taper ?

Wrong, because you cannot use a parabolic with gamma, so the do not scale.
wrong, because you over-generalized

"if"  but it dosent, so a parabolic dish will not work, and has no gain.

Not scalable.

more foo-foo.  You have not been able to justify your absurd

wrong.  antennas are resonate material structures only at certian 
frequiencys.

wrong again.
  EM theory(s) applies differently to different structures, it is not 
one equation governs all. And is driven by boundry conditions, some 
scale, some do not.
  at times you have to use other means than stright EM to make the 
antenna work, like the capacitive match at a single helix antenna 
reflector, diameter of Yagi elements.

take the transmitter, receiver transmission path reciprosity, it can be 
non linear. EM theory says linear.

All the laws of electromagnetics says it scales. The fact that there is

electromagnetics.

Apples and oranges and shows an utter lack of understanding of 
electromagnetic theory.

A yagi antenna has a particular size in WAVELENGTHS. That means that
if the antenna is described in WAVELENGTHS, it works identically
at any frequency.

All half wavelength dipoles work identically because their size is
described in WAVELENGTHS.

so what is the number in inches ?  Can't  you figure it out ?
All you do is answer in *weazel word* vague statements like grandma

is it 1/10 of an inch ?   afraid of "guessing", that is all you do.

wrong, you stuck on this wrongness, things scale some, but if not into 
the real world, the do not scale.

Does you parabolic dishes work on atoms ?

and what is your "laws of electromagnetics" AND "theory of
  electromagnetics" ?

they are just buzzzwords to you, some EM god equation that saves your 
obviously wrong postings from smelling like poo poo.

it doesnt work at gamma, nor at 60 Hz, so it does not scale, your so

wrong, it works only at that one wavelength, that is why is it called a

so where is your 60GHz  1/2 wavelength antenna ?

Yet more ignorance.

You assume due to your utter ignorance of antennas and RF in general
that all dishes are fed with a feed horn; they are not.

I have a very nice X band dish that is fed with a dipole.

Surface roughness has nothing to do with the fact that antennas scale
in frequency.

Surface roughness is measured in wavelenths, not inches.

You might try reading the works of Fraday, Henry, Maxwell, Lorentz,
Poincare, and Einstein.

If you want a specific book, start with "Electromagnetics" by Kraus
and Carver as it is a standard text on the subject.

Electromagnetic theory scales.

All half wave dipoles work exactly the same no matter the physical
size because they are all a half wavelength long.

Utter nonsense.

If such actually existed, you would be gleefully pointing it out and
crying "see, see!!" but you can't as such does not exist.

what is the pattern of a dipole ?
you have a cheap splatter dish, not a good focused one.
Your pattern is multilobed with high F/B ratio, and you dont know it.

and yagis are resonant structures, like dipoles, monopoles, waveguides

Every antenna defined in physical units, i.e. meters, has boundary
conditions, but an antenna defined in terms of wavelength does NOT,
GOT IT?

A half wave dipole is defined in terms of wavelengths and has no
"boundarys" until it is physically constructed in physical, i.e. meters,
GOT IT?

Sigh, like EVERYTHING ELSE, waveguide defined by wavelengths is frequency
independant. It is ONLY when physical units, i.e. meters, are assigned
that waveguide becomes frequency dependant, GOT IT?

Wrong again, idiot.

The area of a circle scales with the square of the radius, that is NOT

Exactly correct. And in fact X-ray antennas have been built and used!
They are very interesting practical physics.
As jimp said the theory works exactly the same as at any frequency!

The trick with X-ray antennas is to get reflectivity and achieve the 
accuracy of figure at the given wavelength.

The first was done very cleverly by not trying to come into a dish 
perpendicularly like a typical dish antenna or optical mirror, but 
building a very low off-axis parabola so the radiation comes in at a 
very low angle. Things that are not so reflective straight-on become 
very shiny at low angles! Cute!

And as for accuracy, well that just means that one must use modern 
techniques VERY carefully and you can get some passable results even at 
x-ray wavelengths.

I wonder how much babbling nonsense he would generate if I were to
bring up dielectric lens antennas, which work exactly like a magnifying
glass given he has already said RF does not work like light and
magnifying glasses?

you said that, not me, a dielectric lens change phase across an area, 
just like a reflector, but no, you cannot understand phase, too complex.

and it does not "work exactly like a magnifying glass"

RF is not light, dude.  study the nomenclalture first.

RF refers to the band of frequencies from about 0.5 MHz to 1Mhz

the FCC disagrees with you,

Nope, you said RF doesn't work like a magnifying glass.

A dielectric lens does.

RF and light are the same thing, i.e. electromagnetic energy, at different
frequencies as are gamma rays and X-rays.

Try greater than 0 to low THz.

You are clueless.

Where do you get the silly nonsense you spout? 

Show me anywhere in electromagnetic theory where there is anything even
remotely like A < frequency < B or shut the hell up.
