Standing Up
for Standing Waves


1 hour 40 min

featuring Bill Hays

Standing Up for Standing Waves
See those two little lights?  They indicate voltage and current on the "transmission line", the two parallel copper pipes they're sitting on.  As Bill adjusts the antenna at the end, and adds inductors, capacitors and stubs to "tune" the line, you see exactly what's happening by watching those lights (and the usual meters and scopes). And he can slide the lights along the line so you see how the SWR changes (or doesn't) anywhere along the line.

Another light on a receiving antenna shows what matters most - how your received signal is affected by all the manipulation.  Bill explains it all as he demonstrates.  It's the best way you'll ever "see" VSWR...

... except for that story Bill tells about the radio engineer who saw icicles that formed a sine-wave as they were hanging from the transmission line of an iced-up broadcast antenna.  That was more visual.

This DVD is indexed by topic for easy review, It's a little long for a single club meeting, but some clubs have broken it up into multiple programs and it's been well received.

So, want to see some SWR?  Play the preview....
