A Treatment Guide for Health Professionals
This essential guide is designed for mental health practitioners and primary care providers without advanced training in geriatric psychiatry. Gary J. Kennedy sets forth a clear framework for understanding the interplay of medical, psychological, and social factors in frequently encountered problems among older adults. Clear guidelines are delineated for assessing and treating such conditions asPsychological Treatment of Older Adults
"This is one of the best mental health and aging books I have ever read. [It] is one that I will turn to often in my teaching of doctoral students, and in my work with older adults. One of the phenomenal aspects of this book is the research reviews; which are in-depth and broad in their scope. It is clear that Lee Hyer is an exceptional scholar-clinician and geropsychologist.."—Peter A.The Effects of Early Adversity on Neurobehavioral Development

There has been a burgeoning of interest in the relation between biological development--particularly brain development--and behavioral development. This shift in focus does a better job of reflecting the whole child and all of development. Not surprisingly, many of the individuals who are concerned with the theoretical side of brain-behavior relations are also concerned with the more practicalPromoting Adherence to Medical Treatment in Chronic Childhood Illness

Microsoft Yanks Windows Updates After a Rash of Blue Screens
The company nixes a handful of updates after this month's Patch Tuesday left "Blue Screen of Death" in its wake for many users.
Patch Tuesday is proving problematic for Microsoft this month after several Windows users were left seeing blue. The company was forced to pull four updates released on Aug. 12 following reports that they were causing Windows PCs to display the so-called "Blue Screen of Death" (BSOD), an error screen that can only be dismissed by restarting the operating system. Encountering a BSOD can result in lost work and presage an imminent hardware failure, among several other faults in software and/or hardware. Microsoft quickly took the blame for a rash of BSODs that occurred after the Redmond, Wash.-based software maker issued a collection of patches and bug fixes last week. Users flocked to the Windows Update support forum on Aug. 13 to report that their systems were unresponsive after applying the Patch Tuesday updates, which included fixes for 37 vulnerabilities. Microsoft narrowed down the culprits to four buggy updates, including a security update for kernel-mode drivers (2982791); two update "rollups" affecting Windows RT, Windows 8.x and Windows Server 2012 (2975719 and 2975331); and an update that adds support for the Russian ruble's new currency symbol to Windows.

City Slicker S'mores for secret eating
I love making marshmallows.
I think it nothing short of culinary alchemy. Water and sugar boiling into a thick syrup, then turning into a bowl of fluffy white clouds, and finally setting into a smooth, satiny pillow of marshmallow.
One of my favorite parts comes when I've lifted the giant marshmallow from the pan and dusted it over with powdered sugar. I love the feel of that huge marshmallow: perfectly soft, silky, and so much like a Tempurpedic mattress that I have a long running fantasy wherein I fall asleep atop a giant marshmallow.
I know. I need therapy.
And then, once cut, who could resist those chubby little cubes?
Why eat some other stuff, indeed.
But the greatest property of the homemade marshmallow? Their square shape, once toasted, melts perfectly to the very edges of a graham cracker for the ultimate S'more.
S'mores are one of my favorite autumnal traditions, but sadly I haven't stood before a bonfire in at least three years. We don't even have a fireplace in our house. Toasting marshmallows over a gas flame (or, more shamefully, a candle) gets the job done, but with none of the magic that makes a s'more more than the sum of its parts.
So, I came up with a solution. If I can't toast my marshmallows over a smokey flame, what if I make them with the smoke built in? Which lead me to making Smoked Vanilla Bean Marshmallows.
Yet, using these deliciously smokey, homemade marshmallows actually made my S'mores worse. Suddenly, the graham crackers weren't holding up their end of the bargain. The mismatch in quality and flavor totally ruined the experience, like expensive cheese on grocery store baguette.
Obviously, I needed homemade graham crackers.
You can find a good recipe for them online without doing much exploratory clicking. It seems the Culinary Mitochondrial Eve may originate with Nancy Silverton's recipe dating back to at least 2000 with the publication of Pastries from the La Brea Bakery. Ten years later, Alton Brown has a spookily similar recipe (perhaps there is a legitimate connection between them?).
It's pretty much Nancy's recipe, converted to weight measurements, with the addition of "graham flour" (a type of whole wheat flour that has been milled a certain way to result in an especially fine textured flour) and some tweaks that up the brown sugar while reducing the molasses.
So, using the basic ratios set forth by those Graham Ancestors, I set out to concoct a gluten free recipe. This has a lot to do with not wanting to leave my gluten intolerant friends sidelined as everyone else chowed down on s'mores.
As per my tirade in Matchy Matchy Matcha I think that gluten free baked goods have to taste awesome to both the "average Joe" and the gluten intolerant alike. So here is a BraveTart approved, gluten free recipe for Honey Grahams.
After baking and mixing away, once I had sufficient quantities of both homemade marshmallows and graham crackers, Rosco appeared. Go figure.
In trying to figure out how we wanted to shoot said goodies, we played around with a lot of ideas, all while quoting various Homestar Runner Fluffy Puff Marshmallow commercials. ("Made from the best stuff" and "I'm going this way!" being our favorites.)
Then it hit us. "Stack 'em to the heavens!"
As Marshie notes in the Fluffy Puff Malloween Orange and Black Flavored Marshmallow Commercial, "they fit on top of each other. Stack 'em to the heavens!"
So, we did. And then poured chocolate ganache all over them.
Afterward, we played S'mores Jinga, and disassembled the tower one delicious piece at a time.
If you'd like to make your own tower of S'mores, or just a normal configuration of S'mores, you'll need:
A batch of Honey Grahams
Some Smoked Vanilla Bean Marshmallows
And a few bars of the chocolate of your choice
I've always found an entire bar of chocolate in a s'more too much. It never gets melty all the way through. So I like to melt my chocolate and then spread a layer on the bottoms of all the graham crackers. Then, pop 'em in the fridge until the chocolate sets up.
That way, there's chocolate on the top and bottom, and both layers are thin enough to get all melty style from the heat of the toasted marshmallow.
Use a gas flame, candle, blow torch or broiler to toast the marshmallows all over, and S'more away.
Is Hershey's everyone's go-to s'mores chocolate, or does anyone else favor dark chocolate instead? To me, a classic S'more has enough sugar to put my teeth on edge for a week. I need the dark chocolate to tame it down. What's your s'more chocolate of choice?
And, also, am I the only person totally obsessed with Marshie, even eight years after his debut? I love his demented, somewhat sinister approach to the shill.

I'm thinking, I'm planning, how am I going to get this done? When am I going to get this done….We flame cook over an open fire pit at least once a week and "s'more" at least twice a week. That is a lot of graham…a lot of mallow, but it must happen.

Stella, I thought you might be alluding to HSR with the Sweet Cuppin' Cakes entry earlier, but Marshie confirmed it. Gorgeous food and stunning photography aside, you are the coolest pastry chef in North America. (If that isn't a thing already, it is now. Because I said so.)

Before Garrett Hedlund won the role of Dean Moriarty in Walter Salles' 'On the Road', there were reportedly many characters who really wanted the role – now we know that one of them was James Franco. In an interview with the Huffington Post, he talks about watching the movie and attending the Q & A with Kristen Stewart in Toronto.
He says, "I saw On the Road at the Toronto Film Festival. I remember auditioning for that movie three or four years ago opposite Josh Hartnett -- needless to say neither of us got the roles based on young Kerouac and Cassady. I played young Ginsberg in Howlsoon after that. It has taken a long time for On the Road to come out and over the course of those 50 years the material has changed, because we have changed."
Of course, now that the film has come out, Hedlund has been getting extremely strong notices for her performance as Moriarty, and his co-stars [including Kristen Stewart] have also been getting good reviews. However, the film itself has been getting mixed notices, mostly for not capturing the zeitgeist feel of the novel. Despite this, Franco clearly seems to think that he missed out – what do you think? Would it have been good to see him as the iconic character of Dean Moriarty or was it better to see him as the iconic character of Allen Ginsberg?

46 year old man | Los Angeles, CA, USA | Seeking women 27-35 within 50 miles
Looking for the ONE
I'm well educated, take care of myself, and have what I believe is a good sense of humor. I'm caring, respectful and loving and expect the same in return. An outgoing, happy and adventurous woman would be ideal. I recently moved (back) down to LA after a long stint up in the Bay Area. I like both areas, but have to say I prefer LA in many ways. So I'm re-acquainting myself with the city and all it has to offer. Family is very important to me, and I hope you are the same way. Although I come from a small family (2 brothers), and we are "scattered" around the country, I try to see them as much as I can. My parents are still together after 50 years... amazing. What am I looking for? In a relationship, definitely something long term, leading to a family. I've been single long enough since my marriage ended and am ready for the next chapter. In a person, I seek someone who is genuine, grounded, simply fun to be with, someone who is ready to try something new. A love of travel is a plus. Where we go and what we do, not all that important, as long as we do it together. I'm a super honest guy... though I will admit my age is *slightly* higher than what I've listed here! In the short time I've been on this site, it seems that is rampant, unfortunately... On the plus side, my pictures are really me, are very recent, everyone tells me I look way younger than I am and that I look better in person. Sprinkle in a great sense of humor, lots of ambition, intelligence, success and a kind heart, and I think you could do a lot worse :)

Renne, Elisha. 2006. "Perspectives on polio and immunization in Northern Nigeria." Social Science & Medicine, 63(7): 1857-1869.
Through the efforts of the global campaign to eradicate poliomyelitis, polio cases have declined worldwide, from 35,251 cases in 1988, to 1449 cases as of 28 October 2005. However, confirmed cases of wild polio virus continue to be reported from Northern Nigeria. This paper examines the reasons for the difficulties in eradicating polio in Northern Nigeria from the perspective of residents of one town, Zaria, in northern Kaduna State. Research methods included participant observation, open-ended interviews and the collection of polio-related documents. While some people believed that the vaccine was contaminated by anti-fertility substances, others questioned the focus on polio when measles and malaria were considered more harmful. Some also distrusted claims about the safety of Western biomedicine. These concerns relate to questions about the appropriateness of vertical health interventions, where levels of routine immunization are low. While the Polio Eradication Initiative was considered to be cost-effective by Western donors, from the perspective of some people in Zaria it was seen as undermining primary health care, suggesting that a collaborative, community-based framework for primary health care, which includes routine immunization, would be a more acceptable approach.

UnNews:New York magician David Blaine to be filled with custard and fired into space
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
This article is part of UnNews | Straight talk, from straight faces |
25 April 2006
New York: Magician David Blaine has announced plans to be filled with custard, emptied, filled again, steamed gently, covered in turmeric, turned around and around until he is really dizzy, set loose in traffic, hunted by dogs, thrown off a cliff, hauled aboard a nuclear submarine, left on a desert island for 6 years and then fired into space wearing only socks and a glove.
Once in space, he will unfurl a huge banner with a special message for the whole world. According to press reports, it will be a message of love, forgiveness and advice for humanity. Shortly afterwards, according to Blaine, all war will end. Then the Pope, realising that he is beaten, will put Blaine in charge of everything. Blaine, 33, says that he will run things from a specially built space station, but adds that he intends to leave routine tasks such as parking and making sandwiches to ordinary officials.
Blaine's spokesman, Pat Smith, says that the mysterious mumbling one has spent six months practicing for the stunt in the Cayman Islands. When pressed to release more details, Mr. Smith would only say that Blaine had been running around in traffic a lot and that he was on a special diet of acorns.

I would like to plant horestail rush indoors and cannot find a nursery online that sells mature horestail rush (i.e., as seen at Huntington Gardens: http://jeffnycity.blogspot.com/ ).
Does anyone know of a nursery? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!
Hi. I sell horsetail reed. What do you mean by "mature plants?" The plants I sell are about 3 1/2 foot tall, which is as tall as the box, and sometimes have to be cut to be that short. I can send taller but the shipping is more. They get up to about 6 foot tall. How many do you want? Each stem is a plant.
Happy ponding!

Nice, nice.
For your first time, that's pretty decent. It ain't bad, and it definitely made me chuckle at more than a few parts. (Like the "You butt-fag. >:(", mostly 'cause I'm immature. XD)
To me as a viewer, there were a few issues though, mainly in the sound of it all. Certain things were louder and/or quieter than others, and certain sounds/voices contained clipping. (i.e., popped or "fizzled" distortion due to overdriven volume.) If I recall, a large majority of those issues could be solved (at least somewhat) in an audio editing program such as GoldWave or Audacity.
The only other issue I had was the quality. Is the microphone you were using any good? If so, then it really is such a horrible scene when potential voice acting is hindered by a sub-par microphone. Then again, I understand issues when it comes to obtaining one.
Still, like I said, for your first submission it wasn't at all bad; the animations weren't horrible, the jokes/comedy worked, and we could at least make out what you were saying. It can only get better from here, right?
Good work, man. ;D
The mic wasn't professional. But i did use audacity. Thanks for the tips.
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars
Not too shabby
As others and you as well have said, the voice acting isn't really good. Especially on the news part, where I still don't know what the guy sez.
The part I DID understand was very good though, I liked the timing of the humor and how the pitch goes up when he gets upset and stuff.
Drawing wasn't really special (kinda like mine tbh :D), but it really fit the whole thing so I dont think that's a bad thing really.
Just please give it a listen before you upload the next, really looking forward to seeing more.
Lol, he said "Sh*t the fu*k". thanks for watchin.

Could improve voice acting.
Funny because it's true, and nice to see the world expressing their anger through Flash, as stated above though, I could barely make out what you were saying. Just hope PSN is up soon.

Ryan says "no question" Sanchez still Jets starter
Updated: October 9, 2012, 1:10 PM ET
Associated Press
NEW YORK -- Mark Sanchez is staying put as the New York Jets' starting quarterback.
Despite struggling again in a 23-17 loss to the Houston Texans, Sanchez is still Rex Ryan's guy -- despite many fans and media suggesting a switch to Tim Tebow could help the Jets (2-3) get back on track.
"Yeah, no question," the Jets coach said Tuesday without hesitation when asked if Sanchez remains the team's starter.
Sanchez has completed less than 50 percent of his passes in four straight ...

My attempt at a 5.8Ghz skew-planer. This antenna was much easier to build then the cloverleaf.
This is the second antenna I have built and I think this one came out better then the cloverleaf I built first. I used a printed PDF protractor and MM ruler to take all the measurements. |
Feb 26, 2012, 12:11 AM | |
looks good, in your first picture, though seems your lobes are a bit flat? maybe around 35 degrees?
my first one was also like that, once i got the 45, and compared it to the old one, it was unreal how off i was...i never used a jig!! lol When i dry fit my lobes together in a small jig i made from a scrape piece of EPP foam, i traced out the 45 on another piece of foam and size it up while placing it behind! I found this really easy to get you angles! Then once satisfied! put some flux on the already tinned ends/centre with a tooth pick, tin your iron and touch the 3 or 4 ends in the centre ,(which ever you are building) form the bottom! That should make a nice solder joint! Mine are not perfect, i think the skew wheel is a bit flat! I need to make make a set for a friend and another skew for myself! I finally got my 7'' monitor yesterday and tested it with these antennas, its like night and day comparable to the stock whips...i left the RX on the table in the kitchen, and walked to the other side of the house in another room, and never dropped out once! even when i was shaking it. It got a touch snowy/static for a split second! I honestly could not believe it! My Big TV has to be very sensitive or something. When i tested them on it, if i shook either of the antennas i would get a black out screen. I can not wait to try these on a Plane or my Quadcopter... Now i just need to find where to get some of those 90 degree adaptors so i can lay my RX flat on the aircraft! where did you get them ebay!? if so ,got a link!? Thanks |

yeah, here are adapters:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/SMA-90-Degre...item1c23720a7b but if you are building it anyway, why not just start with a cable that already has a 90 deg end on it already? something like this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Cable-RG174-...item2eadbd556a (although I don't remember if RG174 is a good cable to use or not, but at this short of a distance, I'm not sure it matters much.) |

Building the antenna - Soldering it all together
Now this is the hard part. Soldering this without overheating the coaxial cable is difficult. First, mark the centers of the pinwheel blades. Now place them over top of each other 90 degrees apart. Each of the blades should set at a 45 degree angle from the "X"......... Ok, How do tell if I overheated coax? Wire gets softer? |

LHCP or RHCP
So It doesn't matter? If I use LHCP or RHCP as long as both are same polarization? There's no setting on tx or rx? Well on 5808 type Vtx / rtx? |
Mar 01, 2012, 04:21 PM | ||
One thing is important though. ALL CP antennas known to me that you can buy commercially are RHCP. RHCP is how the industry assures that antennas from different manufacturers match eachoter. At least RHCP is always the default. So it's a good idea to make yours RHCP if you ever consider to buy a CP antenna somewhere. HTH Markus |

Made a skew planar, a bit crooked, but I have run out of RP-SMA leads, so that'll do for now at least until I get a set from Markus
I am looking forward to testing to see how much it outperforms my cloverleaf on the rx. When flying out in the open, I have found the pair of cloverleaf's work beautifully, but lately I have been flying in a paddock on the edge of the suburb I live in, about 40m from our units, and have been getting bad interference (multipathing I am guessing). I am hoping the SPW will help with this. Feel free to comment on my antennas, I know they aren't the best, but hopefully will do for now |

Hi IbCrazy.
Based on that : " If I use a .040" ( 1mm) wire do I need the lobes be slightly small them ?" Best. FRED Quote:
Mar 02, 2012, 07:15 PM | ||
They look nice, and shape and proportions also look very ok to me. The problem with 5.8Ghz is that a nice looking antenna does not mean that it's a good working antenna as it's very very difficult to build one that resonates where planned and that resonates good. As a matter of fact, bending one of those horizontal parts of the lobes up or down by a tenth of a milimeter easily can make the difference between a 1.2 or 2 SWR. Now how would one want to predict this without the ability to measure? So for what you can do, those antennas look beautifull. The colour you used lowers the resonant frequency, but what the heck, since we don't know if they are above of where they should be or not - it probably does not matter! Markus |

at what length do i cut my RG316 cable? 2-3-6inches long??
ive got my Skew-Planer and Cloverleaf all bent up ready to solder to the cables, and im confused as to how long they can be cut at I understand the tips, for soldering,, ive got two RG316 cables with male female connectors mounted, can i measure from the female case looks like its almost flush,, and how long/short do i cut it at for either one,, both are for 1.3 system antennas thank you very much, jp |

Yes and no, they are great to have the 90 on one end for your CL, and they do look as if they are rg316. But...they are male. You need Female? I have bought these on 2 occasions now! Great seller! http://www.ebay.com/itm/150701624632...ht_3037wt_1185 Note. After looking at the ones i get, they also say Male...But shows the female?

Cord length?
I've been reading the first 15 pages of this thread. I don't think anyone mentions anything about the antenna cord length? Some seem to solder the antenna directly to the SMA contact. And others leave some cord and solder the antenna on that. Is there a general rule here? (I have heard that cord length must match frequenzy, but that was in another context.) I'm using a 1280MHz system and will make a "Skew-Planar Wheel Antenna" for the RX and a "Cloverleaf Antenna" for the TX. I'm using this receiver: Link - 1.3GHz receiver Thanks! /Windman |

Now, I did make my own, but I did pay for these and a pair made by someone who knows how to actually make these would come in handy now that I have several quads and cameras. |

What is near field? What I've done, is on rx, put two 5mm rg 316 leads to two sma/sma-rp connecters. For a panel and a SPW. This make 10 mm...am I messing up reception? Badly?

Awesome! Well alrighty, kudos to you for making sure you ship out products you're happy with.

Now to buy more video transmitters and one that's compatible with my Fatshark goggles, if I can find the Tx in stock anywhere at a reasonable price, grr.
Mar 14, 2012, 11:34 AM | ||
The near field is the area around an antenna which is about one wave lenght in radius. Objects that are in this nearfiled will change the radiation pattern of the antenna. That's because the velocity factor of such objects is different from the otherwise surrounding air. An effect like light going through a lense comes into play. Needless to say that conductive objects are even worse. HTH Markus |

Ah, I get word fast and brain slow...
Yes, 2 pieces 5mm long to two different sma's No, only one antenna at a time, I forgot most electricity rules, but thought two antenna at same time without diversity would create more multi path problems, So the different antenna connecters would be for wider range of different rx antennas, one at a time, of the four antennas I have, three bought for one I made, the sma's are different. The one I made has sma -rp, the ones I bought have sma and sma-rp... I was wondering about reception interference from the 5mm lengths of rg316 from board to connectors? On test to tv, clear on test with myvu's I had a black vertical line moving horizontal across. Slow. Myvu's connected to disc player or iPhone was clear, but I don't have any 16 volt caps on rx wiring yet. |

I would love some advice on my tx and rx antenna setup!
I have a 1.3GHz system. Tx is 400mW. I will be using it on a quad for some aerial photo/video. I will not be flying extremely far away, but maby up to 1000 meters (maximum). I have two receivers with SAW filter modification and an Eagle Tree ground station with diversity. What would be the best antenna setup? I'm planning on using a "Cloverleaf Antenna" for the tx, and a "Skew-Planar Wheel Antenna" for the rx. Would this be a good setup? And what would be a good choice for the 2nd receiver? I have a patch antenna, but I think it is to directional for my purpose? Thanks /Windman |

However, I usually use not jig at all. I see all these fancy jigs and laugh because they're all guessing I use some fancy jig. My jig is my two hands -Alex |

What about a ground plane?
Hi all,
I have been playing with 4nec2 software for a while to see how to increase gain for the SPW. It seems that adding a ground plane underneath the SPW can boost the gain to about 5dBi. Of course the antenna cannot get any signal under 5deg elevation but who really flies underground... For low altitude flying, the antenna would just need to be tilted by 10deg in the good direction to offer 4-5dB over 30deg in elevation and almost 120 deg in azimuth. Is it a software artefact or can we get even further with our beloved omni antennas? Here is the file for those who want to play with the software, together with the 4nec2 output at my frequency 5645MHz: |
Apr 09, 2012, 08:53 PM | |
I just wish I knew what it is.... I bought it online locally and it has no branding on it...but using my lawmate RX I figured most of the freqs. looks like the center freq is VERY close to my target. 1080 Mhz. Now I have to make another for 1200 just because I bought a Lawmate that only does 1.2G... faulty unit...

Hi Alex,
I found an article about making SPW antenna here: Antena Skew Planar Wheel: ACTUALIZADO CON PRUEBAS COMPLETAS DE LABORATORIO Arc Angle = 90° Pitch Angle = 50° It is a bit different. Does it have the same performance with your SPW antenna here? Thanks |

Alex, Markus, any opinion on this finding? Could it be a route to explore?
For instance, I have no clue whether this would work in CP. Pat Quote:

Obiviousely if you can increase gain on the SPW this way, that could be beneficial as I agree that most people don't fly from the top of a mountain. One of my flying sites is on a hill though, so there it might not be an ideal aproach but in many many cases this could be interesting. I'm truly held busy currently with lots of things in paralell, I will definately have a look. You may better post this in the CP Antenna developement thread though.

What is interesting with this ground plane (if it really works!) is that it does not require any modification of the SPW itself. Then it is easy to install or remove the ground plane depending on the flying site. |

Is that MIG wire dirty/corroding?
Cleanliness of the metal is very important, along with a good flux and/or flux cored solder. Try to get some 60/40 tin/lead flux cored solder, like this http://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/solders/0555235/ Don't rub away the copper flash on the outside of the MIG wire as the base metal underneath is carbon steel and it does not solder at all well. A Scotchbrite pad or similar is good enough for preparing the wire. HTH Nigel. |

I guess that was my mistake. I did rub the copper from the MIG wire which makes things even worse. I've got pretty much same 60/40 solder with 2.2% flux. I didn't clean the pieces before soldering. Maybe that was my mistake. |

Dear Antenna Gurus,
I'm planning to make SPW for a FrSky receiver to extend bidirectional (telecommand and telemetering) link range. Since it has 2 antennas, should I make two SPWs or just one SPW with a stock antenna are good enough? If I build just one, I'll put it on top fuselage right next to the canopy. If I have to build two, I'll put them on wing top or even wing bottom facing ground with 10-12" separation. What's your suggestion? Does cloverleaf better suit for this purpose? |

The advantage of Circularly Polarised antennas is the ability to significantly reduce multipath signals.
In your case, 2 Skew-Planar's would be best, one oriented upwards and one oriented sideways (90 degrees difference). This way, you will eliminate the 'nulls' and hopefully, the built in diversity will choose the best one for reception. At the same time, to make best use of your system, you should equip your Tx with a C-P antenna (maybe a Skew-Planar also or even a C-P patch/helical if you can keep it pointed toward the aircraft). Let us know of any improvement you notice. Nigel. |

Thanks for quick reply.
I'm currently building Sky Surfer V4 for my future FPV platform and planning to put RP-SMA plug to U.fl pigtails (http://www.ebay.com/itm/320847624761...84.m1497.l2649) before joining the fuselage. I can put two SPWs with 90 degree offset - one at upper fuselage right next to the canopy and another at left side of fuselage under the wing near COG point. (I'll put VTX near tail in the future.) Is there any spacing requirement between two SPWs? I'm worrying about the reflection. |
Apr 27, 2012, 06:02 AM | |
Hey, I had posted this elsewhere, but how would it go on a SPW?
"Hey does anyone know how well a windsurfer antenna reflector works? I have read a few bits and pieces about people using it for RC 2.4GHz for FPV. Not sure whether its worth giving a go, but hey, it costs practically nothing, there's not much to lose (except my plane!) http://www.freeantennas.com/projects...te2/index.html" Im thinking it may have problems due to reflecting and antenna polarization. (would a right handed tx antenna then work with a left handed rx antenna with refector?) Im not expecting it to work well at all, probs very dodgy, but RF stuff has caught my interest. |
Apr 27, 2012, 05:00 PM | |
I asked this in another smaller thread but it's slowly drifting off onto page three
Are these antennas installed backwards? I thought the CL was supposed to go on the Vtx and the SPW on the Vrx? ______________________________________________ http://www.readymaderc.com/store/ind...roducts_id=781 |

i used 0.6mm steel wire making two SPW antenna, it really perform well in nearby airspace, but radiation fade out quite quickly. Previously the V may loose signal during banking and easy like noisy when move around. but now it is crystal clear in near by space, I see video signal down grade around 200meter away, and quickly loose signal with about another 100 meter. but regain it right back.
admittedly, my antenna is not perfect shape as designed, eg. the curve may not be perfect, and skew is not perfect 45degree and the feedpoint is not aligned perfectly. i am going to rebuild another few to have better connector alignment, etc. what is the expected range for home brew SKPW? and how critical are the dimension/angel/arc? I am looking effective way to use home tools to calibrate steel wires (flex enough), make curve in right way and angle to be exactly angle |

I am worried about getting it too close, because I got it soooooo close on my first try on these antennas and they did not work well. I can get it so I can barely fit a piece of paper in without being shorted if you want, but then most likely the antenna will suck again, So I purposely built my last ones with like a 1-2mm gap...

Hey guys, Im understand that a 3db loss occurs if I use Linear antenna on my plane and CP gear on the ground. What I dont understand is how much distance will this translate too. I know i cant get an exact number but how can I correlate 3db off of the overall db of the setup. I guess I am missing something because the 1.95 db of my clover leaf - 3 would be negative lol.... Im confused
Is my 900 clover going to be an issue on my Radian Pro? |

The 1.95 has to do with the quality of the antenna. The -3 has to do with polarization as KillerCut said. it goes something like this; linear to in polarized linear = 0 loss CP to in polarized CP = 0 loss CP to linear = -3 loss or vis versa linear to out of polarized linear [i.e. @ 90* to each other] = -26 [i.e. not much signal] CP to out of polarized CP [ RH polarized to LH polarized] = -26 or so [WAG] Null areas excluded I'll take a -3 loss which never gets worse than that, any day compared to the potential of up to a -26 loss because the antennas get perpendicular to each other in flight. WAG = Wild Assed Guess as I don't know how bad LH CP to RH CP is HTH Richard |
