Just days after releasing LPH # 19 here we are already with # 20.

This one is titled “Interference 2” and we still aren’t done with the subject so watch for # 21 in a few days.

On this one MRAM chats about his 55-foot tower and the experimental End-Fed Antenna.

To “sort out” a hard to get radio signal from either a jamming station or simply an interfering station on the same frequency, maybe you could try the “Anti-Jamming Antenna” presented by Keith Perron, at PCJ Media, producer of THE HAPPY STATION>

Back in the 1980s there was a period of time during which standards for dangers and exposures to electromagnetic radiation were being reviewed and revised.

Back in the 1980s there was a period of time during which standards for dangers and exposures to electromagnetic radiation were being reviewed and revised.

Prior to that time there was a book by Paul Brodeur called “The Zapping of America.” In the book, which seems to have disappeared from the market, Mr. Brodeur sites corporate and military studies of a whole range of health effects or affects caused by different types of non-ionizing radiation.

Around that time CBS 60 Minutes ran a story about hazards from television and FM high power levels and the public health consequences, including depression, lukemia and cancer. I wrote CBS and asked for a transcript of the program, and they wrote back and said, “There has never been any such program.”

I was involved in FM and TV work and held conversations with engineers, and at one TV station the engineers spoke in a state of fear, because they said they had the highest cancer rate in the station’s building, but needed their jobs. One engineer told that major dental problems resulted from electrolytic reactions between the enamel of teeth and fillings in the teeth, brought about by the RF from the many TV monitors and microwave relay transmitter.

So I did an article in a city magazine titled “The Electronic Soaking of St. Louis.” But the journalistic standard kept me from going full tilt on what I believed, and I only reported what could be definitely proven, which was not too much. I protected the identities of the TV engineers but that weakened my report.

I also had known an engineering union official who was dying of prostate cancer and told by his doctor that his cancer was a result of years working at the 5kW transmitter at 1380kHz. When I asked my doctor, he said, “There’s a lot we don’t know.” When I asked another doctor he said, “If there was something to it we’d know about it.”

The hint and suggestion of RF danger continues to boil. Fine time to be a frog.

Many good projects get shared here on this site. Here is a Status Report on some of those projects.

The Big Talker shortwave transmitter was designed by contributing members of part15.us and the prototype has been running daily on 13.560mHz and is available to build at this link

There is a design feature I would like to add to Big Talker, but will need input from the “better schooled,” so please watch for a post about that, coming soon;

The Deep Voice long wave transmitter is in first draft, parts being ordered, building of a prototype soon to commence. The link is here

There is a Version 2.0.0, but the site needs to be updated;

Since I am trying to find a way to start with Carrier Current, I have an idea for a special linear amplifier designed to work with AMT5000 or AMT3000 to add the needed power increase and variability for driving 50-ohms into a CC Coupler. The name of this project, if it goes forward, will be “Back End.”

All of these projects comply with FCC part 15.

Has anybody tried Stitcher? I just did a quick study about what Stitcher provides to the broadcaster, and I noticed two things in particular that Stitcher provides.

It puts radio programming onto Apps, and there is work underway to get internet radio into automobiles. By Apps of course we mean cell phones and the like.

Stitcher, as I understood their description, programs from RSS feeds, which means that programs or podcasts must be pre-recorded and posted.

It does not appear that Stitcher can present a streaming radio station, but if you have other information please share your knowledge.

Still, the idea of getting a part 15 radio station to the Apps, which are part 15 devices, is appealing. So Stitcher might be worth knowing about.

MRAM has been declared WINNER of the Website of the Show Award by Low Power Hour # 19, for his website from a home computer which has been running for several months.
