The purpose of a pool cartridge filter is to clean your pool water by capturing debris and decontaminates in the folds of the filter. With time these folds will become clogged, water will not flow thru the filter as easily, and pressure within the filter will increase. Operationally, with water flow down, you will not be turning you pool water as frequently and your pool decontaminates will start to build up. It's time to clean your filter. As a general rule of thumb, your filter should be clean at least once a month during the summer and every other month if your pool is operational during the winter. Although this description is specific to a Hayward cartridge filter, many of the steps can apply to other models of cartridge filters.
The first step is to turn off the pool pump to stop the flow of water through the pool filter.
Next you will have to relieve the pressure that has built up in the pool filter. Note the pressure on the pressure gauge. It will typically read between 15 - 20 psi. To relieve pressure turn the air relief valve on top of the filter counter clockwise. Water will spray out initially as you see the pressure on the pressure gauge go to 0 psi.
To access the pool filter cartridge you will have to take the pool filter head off the top of the filter. Turn the locking knob counter clockwise until you feel the pool filter head is loose.
Next lift the pool filter head off the top of the filter. It may be a little hard to lift initially as you break the O-ring seal between the two pool filter parts.
With the pool filter head off, you will see the top of the pool filter cartridge.
Lift the pool filter cartridge straight up to remove it from the pool filter body.
Set the filter cartridge on the lawn and begin cleaning it with a garden hose. Use a full stray nozzle. A pressure nozzle may be too strong and will cause unnecessary wear on the pleated folds. When spraying, start at the top of the cartridge.
Work your way straight down the cartridge to work the debris down and out the bottom of the pool filter cartridge
Rotate the filter cartridge to the next section and starting at the top work your way down again to the bottom. Continue rotating until the filter cartridge looks clean. Check inside the folds to make sure all the debris has been removed.
Some of the debris will have collected at the bottom. Spend extra time spraying out the bottom.
When you've finished cleaning the pool filter cartridge, replace the cartridge by placing it straight down into the filter.
It's always a good practice to lubricate the pool filter head O-ring before replacing the filter head. Lubrication will insure a better fit and extend the life of the O-ring. Rub a thin coat of lubrication on the outside of the O-ring.
Replace the pool filter head on top of the pool filter. Position the top so that you can read the pressure gauge.
When replacing the filter top, watch that the O-ring doesn't bulge out of its grove. This becomes more of a problem as the O-ring becomes older and stretches. If the O-ring is not set properly the top will not close correctly and water will spray out when the pump is restarted. The O-ring should be replaced if this is a recurring problem.
Hand tighten the locking knob clockwise.
Turn on power to the pool pump to repressurize the pool filter.
The air relief valve should still be open. As the pressure builds, air will be released through the relief valve. When water starts to spray out of the valve, turn the valve clockwise to close it.
Check the pressure gauge. It typically reads between 10 - 15 psi but this will vary according to the make of pool cartridge filter or its age. This value is your system's clean filter pressure. When the pressure is 8-10 psi higher, it's time to clean your pool filter again.

Hi, Very well written steps. I am trying to open my filter which is the exact model shown in the steps but the lid does not come off. Is there any trick to get it open. i am new to this.

opening pool - There are several steps to follow when you open up a pool. See our series of guides starting with "How To Maintain A Swimming Pool Part 1 (Chemicals)" for more information.

We are trying to open our pool and we've cleaned the cartridge and shocked it but the water is still not clearing. Is there something we aren't doing?

edhoff - You might try soaking the cartridges in a TSP solution overnight. See "How To Chemically Clean a Pool Cartridge Filter", then rinsing that solution out good with a hose. Don't know if that would get everything out that would affect your pond. I don't know how fragile your pond elements are. It might be safer to use new cartridges.

Filter soak - I would soak your cartridge filter in a TSP solution to get the embedded chemicals and debris out of the folds. See our guide on "How To Chemically Clean a Pool Cartridge Filter" for detailed instructions.

We're cleaning our filter to put it away for winter. Is there a home solution that we can soak it in?
Posted: 3/18/2014 10:19:35 AM
experio - It sounds like your system needs to be primed. The system lines to the pump have air in them and your pump is not able to suck water into the pump. See our guide on "How To Prime a Pool Pump" for further instructions.

Thanks for great instructions on cleaning the pool filter. I was able to do clean filters, but my problem is that after putting everything back, I started the pump, kept the air valve open - but it seems no pressure is building up at all. Left it running for 15-20 min, and still pressure reading shows 0 psi (no outflow of air/water from the air valve)... am I doing something wrong here? Should I be checking something else?

I have a 24' x 16' above ground pool that I've had problems with in terms of keeping the water chemistry balanced. Recently, I threw in apparently way too much Alkalinity Up (the container said I needed 7 lbs. for my size pool - I put in 5 lbs. but I guess you're not supposed to put it in all at once) and now the problems are worse! The cartridge filter got very clogged up with blue gunk...it is the same color as the liner! Is my liner dissolving because of the chemicals - into the filter (and who knows where else?) Help!!!
Posted: 6/26/2013 11:26:42 AM
ellen - If the cartridges were filtering during those four year, four years is stretching the life or a typical cartridge. But try the TSP soaking for 24 hours. It is used to get the body and tree oils and general gunk out of the creases. Follow this up with a 10-1 muriatic acid soak for an hour to clean out the mineral build up. That should give you a much cleaner filter cartridge.

hi,have an older pool with an almost unheard of filter - "modufilter", by the Wet Institute, and have finally found cartridge filters on-line that will fit. will it or will it not extend the life of the cartridge to do the TSP soaking? pool gets very little use and last set of cartridges were bought in summer of '09, so that's about four years. is that average life span or will they last longer if I TSP? have many issues this year with cloudy water, dirty walls, sweep kind of poopy, but think all are probably due to the worn out cartridges. if not, may be back in touch. but would like your opinion of the TSP and longevitythanks.

TRI-CLOPS - Some suggestions - If you are vacuuming very dirty water and it appears to return to the pool, check the cartridges. There is nothing in the filter to collect (and dispense) debris back to the pool except the cartridges. Make sure the cartridges are set correctly onto the bottom manifold. Check that there are no rips in any of the cartridges. Clean out the bottom of the tank. If you're vacuuming relatively clean water and it is returning dirt and debris back to the pool, have someone check your vacuum suction line. You may have developed a leak in this line that sucks in dirt when you vacuum.

I just bought a house with an in ground pool. It has a TRI-CLOPS filter system. I have researched and learned how to open the pool, had a water test done added chemicals etc. The problem I am having is when I try to vacuum the pool, it goes right through the filter system and blows debris and sediment, like a gray cloud right back into my pool. I can't get the water to clear up from being cloudy, so I am stumped?? ANy ideas??
Posted: 5/20/2013 11:12:18 AM
Ahhhh - It sounds like your cartridge is getting clogged with whatever is suspended in the water. I talked to a filter rep and he suggested two partial solutions. Vacuum off the bottom for the denser particles. This all goes out the waste line - bypass filter if you can. Vacuum out 2-3 inches of water and refill. You may still have to keep re-cleaning your filter for a while but hopefully less often. Another suggestion is to use a TSP solution to help clean out the fine residue in the creases of the filters.

I opened our pool a little early this season and the water was more green than our grass. I shocked and used algeside and the water turned blue in hours. Unfortunately it also got very cloudy. The ph was low so I added ph up and shocked again. The chlorine was low so i added enough to bring the levels good. Once the pool was balanced I added a clarifier. After all of this the water became quite milky. The main issue i am dealing with now is my pump runs really well for 7-10 minutes then slows to a stop. I take out the filter, spray it and replace it and the same flow, great for a few minutes then trickle to nothing. The same happens with a brand new filter. I have also checked all connections on both the pump and pool. I know its the cartriges getting clogged but it must be something clear or white because while i can see a slight change im color, they look almost like new. I have been going at this for about a week now anda kinda stumped. Thanks in advance.

mimi - Cartridges get clogged with minerals like calcium that don't rinse out with a normal hosing. Try soaking your cartridge with a TSP solution. TSP can be purchased at must local stores. Do not use muriatic acid as this tends to set the contaminates. If this doesn't work, you may have to purchase a new cartridge.

I just started cleaning my green pool (shock treatment, algaecide, etc). Ive cleaned the filter inside and out, did everything Ive read about, but everytime I put the filter back the pool intake stops pulling debris. I tested the pool without the cartridge and it pulls great, skimmer and all. Any suggestions??

Eval, Yes - the Fix-a-Leak manufacturers recommend pulling the cartridge filter and circulating water through an empty tank when using Fix-a Leak.

When I clean and replace the cartridge on my filter, it goes right to 25 -35 lbs pressure. The filter is only 4 months old. I have had to hose it done 4 times in the last 2 weeks. The pool is not green, the water is fine. What could be sending the pressure up so quickly?
Posted: 7/27/2012 11:23:09 AM
green pool - The chemicals you used to clear you pool may be clogging your cartridge. Try placing your cartridge in a weak solution of muriatic acid (1 part acid to 10 parts water) for 10 -15 minutes. Rinse well and let dry before reinstalling.

My pool was deep green when we tried to open it this year. I know we did not close it properly the year before. We could not get decent flow through our sand filter and the service company said the filter needed replacing and them pump was too small. We put in a new pump and a C900 filter. The pressure when a cartridge is new is about 10 PSI. WE clean it a few days later around 20. We can get the cartridge looking clean, but when I reinstall it the pressure is still around 20 psi. I've replaced the cartridge once already after less than a month. What else can I do?
Posted: 6/26/2012 11:50:17 AM
kenjen - Try getting as much of the debris out of your pool with a hand net so it doesn't keep clogging the filter. Even so you are going to have to clean your cartridge filter repeatedly (like every day) until your pool is clean of the debris. Try shocking the pool a couple of time and add algaecide if the pool contains algae. Make sure your pool chemistry is under control. See our How To Guides for more information on cleaning up a dirty pool.

Posted: 5/8/2012 7:08:26 PM
Felix,Sounds like your pool pump is right at the edge of generating sufficient water flow to run your pool vacuum. If you have the option, try shutting down the water from your main drain or skimmers while you are running your suction cleaner. If not, you may need a bigger motor.

please help - If you are just reopening your pool that has a lot of debris in it, we recommend that you clean out as much as you can with a net before you start filtering the water. Otherwise you will be catching it all in you filter and having to repeatly clean it.

My pool service cleans my filter monthly. Now they say that it needs to be replaced with a significant cost. How often does an in ground pool filter need to be replaced on average use?
Posted: 12/23/2011 9:05:29 AM
Neesee - I assume from your discription that your bearings in your pump motor are bad. Filters don't usually make that much noise. Make sure your filter is large enough to handle the size of your pump. If it is too small, the pump will get overloaded. Also, when replacing your motor, always replace the shaft seal and check that your impeller is the right size and sound.

My filter howls. It was pefect all summer and I did clean it regularly. Now, I have cleaned it and cleaned it and it still howls. It's less than a year old and the old one did the same thing and was only about a year old too. Shouldn't one last longer than that? They cost an awful lot.

Is there a nice proof for the following fact?
In a plane, there does not exist a square such that its vertices are at a rational distance from each vertex of some equilateral triangle.
What if we replace the square with a cyclic quadrilateral?
Well, it seems the following idea works for the first part of the question: It is well known that there is no equilateral triangle in the Cartesian plane with rational coordinates. Let $(x,y)$ be at rational distance from the square with vertices, $(0,0), (0,a), (a,a), (a,0)$. Then it is easily seen that $2a(x-a)$ is rational. Hence if the coordinate system is scaled by a factor of $a$ and the origin is shifted to $(a,a)$, the coordinates become rational.

Milan against fascists
CARC national direction statement of 17th June 2006
On late 11th March in Milan, some hundreds of antifascists demonstrate against the neo-fascist parade of that day, permitted by city Authorities and protected by the police. The centre-left political forces, which could very easily have the city mobilized against the fascists and so prevent their parade, just "show their disdain" about any fascist expression. We must remember that the same Italian Constitution forbids any demonstration exalting Fascism. Despite of it, the antifascists determined to oppose themselves to the fascist parade were alone. The police attacked. There were clashes and 43 people were arrested. 25 of them are still in jail. Other two comrades were arrested later, and one of them was Valter Ferrarato, member of the National Direction of CARC. These two comrades were liberated, thanks to an intense mobilization that has gone on, in support of the 25 people still in jail. A climax of this mobilization was the national demonstration held on 17th June. About that demonstration, the National Direction of our party delivered the following statement.
Adhesion to the anti-fascist demonstration of 17th June (Statement of CARC National Direction)
The Party of the CARC adheres to the national demonstration of 17th June called by antifascist Milanese movement for the liberation of the antifascists imprisoned after the events of 11th March in Milan.
The solidarity towards the imprisoned antifascists is dutiful. Solidarity means to struggle for their liberation, to prevent the isolation of the antifascists arrested, to line up in the antifascist front without any doubt. Most of all, solidarity means to stand against any rehabilitation of Fascism and any persecution of the Communists and antifascists. Today, having doubts under the pretext of violence, under the pretext to agree or not upon the way the demonstration was carried out, under the pretext of its shortcomings, means to support more or less directly those forces that, with all their ifs and buts, allow the rehabilitation of fascism by bourgeois parties. Wondering if the antifascists have the legitimacy to stop a demonstration exalting Fascism means to justify the fascists' presence in our squares.
On the contrary, we need to contrast and make fail the operations of Prodi's circus and Berlusconi's gang who continue to spatter with mud the militant antifascism and to rehabilitate Fascism. It is beyond any doubt that fascists must have space nowhere, and particularly not in Italy. Fascism has been won on 25th April 1945 by the sacrifices and strength of popular masses, workers, partisans and Communists,by the heroic struggle of the Resistance. It has been won and we shall not allow it coming back.
We need to mobilize workers, women, and young people. Today, as yesterday, their mobilization is the best mean for blocking the way to Fascism rehabilitation and to make fail the right and left wing bourgeoisie's vile operation of Fascism rehabilitation. The masses' mobilization will give difficulties to the two bourgeois poles' politics.
We need to promote the development of a united anti-fascist front.
We need to promote the comrades' participation and most of all a really popular participation in the national demonstration calling for the immediate release of the antifascists. We need to propagandize the true values of freedom and justice that give life to antifascist movement.
In Italy the rich people exploit workers, speculate, steal billions and are free, while the proletarians that do all they can for living are in jail. In Italy, since the first post-war period, the fascists were liberated and the partisan were imprisoned. Today the fascists start again to rove arrogantly and the antifascists are in jail. The repression of antifascists is only one of the political forms of the war running between bourgeoisie and popular masses.
This is what needs to be answered with the demonstration of 17th June in Milan.
The demonstration was successful. 10000 people share in it. The march going on in the city ways towards the jail of Milan was opened by the parents of the young antifascists imprisoned, supporting the banner where there was written: "Freedom for our sons." Near them there were representatives of institutions and of some centre left parties, obliged to intervene and to face their responsibilities by persistent calls and statements. There were the leaders of the Party of Communist Refoundation (PRC) of Lombardy, Dario Fo (Nobel Prize winner for literature), Daniele Farina, vice-president of Justice Commission of the Chamber of Deputies, Francesco Caruso (PRC) and don Gallo, a famous no-global priest. Besides the PRC, there were Communist Project (a Trotskyist part), all the occupied social centres of Milan and of other Italian cities, anarchist groups and some Marxist Leninist organizations.
Our Party contributed to the success of the demonstration opposing against the opportunism of all those force that pretended the condemnation of "violence", as they call the resistance opposed by the antifascists to the police's attack, and against the "leftist" sectarianism that refused the participation of representatives of centre-left parties and of the institutions. Our Party shared the march with a banner where there was written: "Let us defend the Resistance's values", spreading leaflets, launching slogans against Fascism, exalting the Resistance, in solidarity with the antifascists imprisoned and with all the revolutionary prisoners. Despite the bourgeois media's propaganda, attempting to terrorize the population fearing new clashes, the demonstration was peaceful.
The success of this demonstration is a step on in comparison with the conditions before and after the 11th March clashes. We underline the effectiveness of the work carried out by the CARC among the popular masses. The mobilization of young antifascist's parents, promoted and supported by CARC comrades was decisive for breaking the wall of silence that, also owing to the opportunism and sectarianism of Milanese politaical movement, was preventing that the issue of the imprisoned comrades' defence was shared by the popular masses. That is why we shall go on on this way, for the liberation of the imprisoned comrades, now and forever against Fascism and for the Resistance.

The old study was established in the Blacks Mountain Experimental Forest (BMEF) in the 1930's and 1940's and examined different levels of harvesting timber. It was designed to determine what minimum levels of timber harvest could be economically feasible over large areas, and to determine the differences in tree growth over time. The new study takes a holistic approach to answer complicated ecological questions by examining the responses and interactions of many forest components to different forest structures within an interdisciplinary, experimental framework. A key goal of the research is to provide useful information for achieving the necessary balance of forest management to simultaneously meet the demands of people and the needs of a functioning forest and its soils, plants, invertebrates, and wildlife. Questions to answer include: How do the forest's functions, or ecological processes, change through time? How do they respond to different forest management strategies?
The response from many scientists working in different disciplines was an overwhelming "yes." As they talked about the importance of the 50-year data base at Blacks Mountain, they began to see new opportunities for research within a different framework. Out of the first meeting in 1991 came a commitment to develop a new research plan for Blacks Mountain that would address some of today's concerns. The study would be on the cutting edge for developing research technologies and integrating information to answer large, complex questions.
"We had always given lip service to interdisciplinary studies," Oliver says, "but we really didn't know how to go about it."
The team has now worked together for more than four years and has developed techniques and processes necessary to conduct interdisciplinary research on a variety of scales.
Both sets of these questions are directly related to important aspects of
Blacks Mountain Experimental Forest is largely forested with eastside pine, a major forest community that extends from Baja California north through eastern Oregon and Washington and into British Columbia. These forests consist primarily of ponderosa and Jeffrey pine, with white fir and incense-cedar also present. Eastside pine is valuable for timber and cattle production, clean water, outdoor recreation, and habitat for a variety of wildlife.
Major problems also exist within this forest type; temperature extremes -- hot in summer and cold in winter -- and low precipitation combine to create difficult growing conditions. Decades of use and wildfire exclusion in the 20th century, combined with other factors, have resulted in less than fully productive forests that seem to be prone to bark beetle outbreaks. The risk of catastropic fire is high, and many ecological processes have been altered.
Both future forest health and the economic base of local communities depend on new management techniques. As foresters move more and more toward practices that emphasize long-term productivity and ecologically sound management strategies, they will rely heavily on information from research: basic ecological information about the way forest ecosystems function.
Ecosystem interactions and emergent properties can be understood only if two or more factors are studied together. Physically, this is difficult when some factors (such as bacterial mineralization of organic matter) are studied on a micro-geographic or temporal scale, while others (such as habitat needs and/or reproductive success of cavity-nesting birds) are studied more broadly. The relationship between, and influences of, the various forest properties and processes can be determined by knowing the exact location of the data in the landscape and, in time, the community conditions that it represents. Findings can then be discussed with specialists in other disciplines who are involved with similar or related communities. Spatial and temporal integration of the findings from field studies of differing scales will be achieved by referencing all data to permanently monumented plot centers accurately located on a 100-meter grid. This grid will facilitate the integration and extrapolation of information obtained from periodic sampling through time.
To further facilitate this, geographically-referenced digital orthophotos will be used to determine the spatial distribution of plant communities. The photos will permit a description of the landscape at varied spatial scales, and subsequent photos will show how the treatments and vegetation response to such have altered the landscape through time. Data will be stored in a corporate relational data base, and analysis will include the use of geographic information systems.
Structure refers to the shape of a forest: its height, the diameter of trees, and the spacings around trees and groups of trees. The study design compares the effects of two different forest structures (high diversity and low diversity), two grazing strategies, and two fire treatments on forest ecology. The treatments will set the evolution of forest structures on eight different paths. Various forest attributes will repond differently to these treatments through time.
The study consists of twelve 250-acre plots. Six of the plots will be harvested to high structural diversity and six to low structural diversity. These structures will be created by timber sales planned for the summers of 1995, 1996, and 1997. Grazing will be excluded from half of the high diversity and half of the low diversity plots. Each of the 250-acre plots will be split, and fire will be re-introduced (and maintained on a regular basis) on each of the 125-acre splits.
After logging, each 250-acre high diversity treatment area will contain many large, old trees, abundant snags, multiple canopy layers with dense clumps of smaller trees, and small openings. Each low structural diversity treatment area will have few large trees and snags, and a single canopy layer with trees well spaced, and a few large gaps in the forest canopy.
The fire treatment will reduce the amount of woody debris and forest floor litter on half of each of the treatment areas. It will also increase nutrient availability through mineralization, provide optimum places for plant seed germination, and stratify seeds, which encourages them to sprout.
The grazing treatments will result in the trampling of woody debris, mixing of upper soil layers, and consumption of sprouting grasses and forbs.
The responses of various forest attributes (including soils, vegetation, genetics, and wildlife) and the interactions of ecological processes (nutrient mineralization, plant growth, and wildlife population changes) that will result from the treatments are unknown. The important question is: is there a real difference between management strategies through time?
Scientists are invited to join the group if they think they have something to contribute to the research at Blacks Mountain.
Kathy Harcksen, a full-time team leader, coordinates the project. Her responsibilities are to facilitate the efforts of the research team, oversee planning, and serve as liaison to National Forest and other cooperators. This role is necessary to relieve scientists of the administrative burden and allow them to continue their investigative role in research.
All of the studies are planned with certain objectives in mind; scientists want to learn things that will have practical application in forestry. But no one knows exactly what will come out of this work. "We expect surprises," Oliver says. "Through the collaboration of scientists working in different disciplines, we will undoubtedly find many environmental relationships we simply cannot foresee."
In the past, most ecological studies were not designed to assess the effects caused by specific activities, nor were they intended to answer questions relevant to more than one discipline. As a result, it has been difficult to draw broad conclusions on the effects of activities on the array of ecological components within a forest. At Blacks Mountain, scientists have put considerable effort "up front" into planning a study that would answer big questions on biodiversity and sustainable productivity and that would provide statistically-sound information for years to come. That is the special interest of Dr. Pat Shea. Shea was involved in large insecticide studies in the 1960's and 1970's. Those studies, which included analyzing the effects of insecticides on birds and wildlife, have helped him appreciate the importance of good experimental design.
"Fifty to 100 years from now, we want researchers and managers to have confidence in the data base," he says.
The research team will determine the interaction of these components before and after treatments are installed, as well as any differences between treatments. Through time, any significant differences in forest management strategies will become evident.
Scientists involved in the Blacks Mountain study have, essentially, a lifetime commitment to their work and to this particular project. "No one has to do this research," according to Kathy Harcksen. "They have a commitment to finding the answers to larger questions, and each of them subscribes to the philosophy of interdisciplinary research. Each one has given up a lot, betting that the pay-off in gaining the knowledge pertinent to understanding ecological systems will come in the long run."
To learn more about the studies at Blacks Mountain Experimental Forest, refer to the article titled "Long Term Response of Old Growth Stands to Varying Levels of Partial Cutting in the Eastside Pine Type," by Dolph, Mori, and Oliver, in the Western Journal of Applied Forestry, 10(3):101-108 (1995). This article is now in press.

Does Mitt Romney really want to win the Presidency? He keeps showing up for Debate Club when this is Fight Club. The first rule of fight club is not that you do not talk about fight club. The first rule of fight club is that you win.
Does Mitt Romney really want to win?
Who knows?
But if Romney wants to win, he had better get on message quickly. He had better learn messaging.
Here is messaging for Mitt. I hope he is taking notes.
First, Barack Obama is not a nice guy. Quit saying that. No anti-American Marxist is a nice guy. You say he is a nice guy and he says you are an uptight jerk, born with a silver spoon in your mouth and you want to see Americans fired, starved and have all of their rights stripped away.
If you start with the premise that he is a nice guy, you lose. The drive by media and Madison Avenue are working overtime to help Obama win the popularity contest. You won't.
But then again, you don't need to.
Tip O'Neil said, "All politics is local," and you do not get any more local than the individual American and his or her economic situation.
Quit saying that we are in economic recovery. We are not. This is the Great Obama Depression. Make him own the economy.
You are not offering us a conservative alternative. Your message is that you can manage the nation better. First, your message sucks. But if that is going to be your message, then you must make him own the Great Obama Depression.
That should be your talking point. Every time you start talking about the economy, that should be your tagline. If the economy is recovering, even slowly, what the hell are you offering us?
Right now, this is the Great Obama Depression. If we calculated unemployment today, the way we did back in the first great depression, unemployment would be 17%. One out of every two college graduates cannot even find a job. The last time the Republicans controlled the government, 90% of college graduates found a job
This is not hard. It only takes a little discipline and the willingness to fight. Your big problem is that you have a serious case of "Member of the club syndrome."
You treat Obama and the other Democrats as "members of the club." The club is of course, the governing class. John McCain made that mistake, as did Bob Dole before him. He will not show you the same courtesy so why do you?
This is Fight Club not Debate Club. You have to be willing to throw some punches and take a few hits. You may get a bloody nose and get some blood on your freshly laundered white shirt.
So what? How badly do you want it?
John Kerry's messaging in 2004 was, "We can do better." Actually he could not do better but that is about as uninspiring a message as you can get.
Since you are not going to offer us a Reagan alterative to liberalism, at least do your messaging correctly so you have a chance.
Republicans are amazingly bad on messaging and even by Republican standards your messaging is abysmal.
In 1976, Ronald Reagan began mocking Gerald Ford on Détente. What had been a foreign policy triumph for Ford turned into such an albatross around his neck that Ford gave orders that his campaign not mention the word Détente.
This is simple. Four words: The Great Obama Depression.
If this is your message and you stay on it, people will vote their pocket books. All you have to do is ask them, "Are you better off now, after almost 6 years of Democrat control of the Congress or were you better off when Republicans controlled government? Are you better off now after four years of Obama or were you better off when the Republicans controlled the government."
This is winning messaging. It is simple.
This is messaging for Mitt. The question for Mitt is, "Do you want to win?"

PAT, Exactly---I want to know WHY and who, and how can OB decide he just wants to move our election votes, votes of the citizens of this country, to SPAIN for tabulation???
I can't even believe that this is possible. What reason has he given? Does all of the Washington representatives know this? It has never been done. Why is this okay? Why Spain? What is wrong with our system? Doesn't this have to be approved?
There is a blog article by Marion Algier, a tea party nation member that someone had a link to. It is all about the Spain Thingy. It was posted April 21st, not as an emailed tea-party notice that you get in your email. It is hidden!
This article should be up front and emailed out to every member! If my link doesn't work try typing in Marion Algier's name in and see her personal blogs. It is so important!
Every single person should contact their reps and question this.
Ah! It worked.
I will probably comment about this anytime a see a chance to. It is too important to ignore.
I can't understand why some are giving up before the fight has began.
You think back to the days of Washington. The soldiers then had little to fight with. Had they given up we would still be bowing to a King.
Now, Here, Today, we all have a roof over our heads, plenty to eat, no one beating down anyone's door, and some still give up because of, WHAT?
Each moment we decide to live is a moment we have a choice to make a future we want to live in.
If you want a future with Obama as president why are you writing on these pages?
It's simple, people, decide on a future without Obama and do the next step. You know what you can do. Do it. When you do that you have nothing but positiveness.

ps don't forget, ABSENTEE BALLOTS for the elderly in your circle come NOV.
Thank you for the positive message Peter.
I don't think it's possible for somebody with tens of millions of dollars in the bank to "See" the world the way most of us do. However, I do think it's possible for such a person to CONSIDER the perspective(s) most of us have, if only for a very short period of time. Here's an email that Mitt might like, which is actually a little TOO TRUE for my liking:
Scary Obituary
In 1887 Alexander Tyler, a Scottish history professor at the University of Edinburgh ,
had this to say about the fall of the Athenian Republic some 2,000 years prior:
"A democracy is always temporary in nature; it simply cannot exist as a permanent
form of government.
A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover that they can
vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury.
From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates who promise the
most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally
collapse over loose fiscal policy, (which is) always followed by a dictatorship."
"The average age of the world's greatest civilizations from the beginning of history, has
been about 200 years.
During those 200 years, these nations always progressed through the following sequence:
From bondage to spiritual faith;
From spiritual faith to great courage;
From courage to liberty;
From liberty to abundance;
From abundance to complacency;
From complacency to apathy;
From apathy to dependence;
From dependence back into bondage."
The Obituary follows:
Born 1776, Died 2012
It doesn't hurt to read this several times.
Professor Joseph Olson of Hamline University School of Law in St. Paul, Minnesota,
points out some interesting facts concerning the last Presidential election:
Number of States won by: Obama: 19 McCain: 29
Square miles of land won by: Obama: 580,000 McCain: 2,427,000
Population of counties won by: Obama: 127 million McCain: 143 million
Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by: Obama: 13.2 McCain: 2.1
Professor Olson adds: "In aggregate, the map of the territory McCain won was
mostly the land owned by the taxpaying citizens of the country.
Obama territory mostly encompassed those citizens living in low income
tenements and living off various forms of government welfare..."
Olson believes the United States is now somewhere between the
"complacency and apathy" phase of Professor Tyler's definition of democracy,
with some forty percent of the nation's population already having reached
the "governmental dependency" phase.
If Congress grants amnesty and citizenship to twenty million criminal
invaders called illegal's - and they vote - then we can say goodbye to the
USA in fewer than five years.
If you are in favor of this, then by all means, delete this message.
If you are not, then pass this along to help everyone realize just how much is at
stake, knowing that apathy is the greatest danger to our freedom..
This is truly scary!
Of course we are not a democracy, we are a Constitutional Republic .
Someone should point this out to Obama.
Of course we know he and too many others pay little attention to The Constitution.
There couldn't be more at stake than on Nov 6, 2012.
If you are as concerned as I am please pass this along.
Mittens is an idiot. There is no way that he can be as intellegent as you are Judson. He has no idea what he is doing and he is a liberal. So he has NOTHING going in his favor. How did he win again? Why didn't Newt win? What is wrong with our Country that MITTENS became the winner here? Beyond me.

The food store scene in Palm Beach County just keeps getting better. Where else can you find an Italian restaurant, a French bistro, and olive oil store, a bagel and pastry shop, a produce market and now, a new Russian/Eastern European market, all in one strip shopping center?
Euro Market, meet your international neighbors.
Open just two months, this tucked-away shop is packed with foods you remember from your immigrant mother or grandmother's kitchen, or perhaps from trips abroad and packages smuggled in suitcases, back in the day when airport security was a little more lax.
For dairy products, you'll find kefir, butter from several Federation countries (as well as Chimay brand from Belgium), a freezer full of ice pops, cones and cups, thick, tangy sour cream from Lithuania, chicken and lamb vareniki (similar to both pierogi and tortellini), fresh farmer cheese and a variety of prepacked meats and cheeses. Fish such as sprats, sardines and herring come plain, pickled, creamed and smoked, in cans and jars, packed fresh and frozen, by the piece or by the pound. In the deli case, there are enough meats and cheeses to create a well-loaded table of zakuski (hot and cold Russian appetizers; the real heart of a meal): kolbasa, ham and sausage from Moscow, the Ukraine, Estonia, Latvia, Hungary and Poland, plus cheeses that can be sliced to order, and are best served with the fresh-baked brown bread Euro Market offers. There's also real Russian black bread and plenty of mustards, and for the multicultural, even a few chili sauces.
You need some side dishes with all that meat, and Euro Market carries a good variety of noodles and kasha, or buckwheat groats. Rice and corn aren't staples in this cuisine, but the different types of noodles alone more than make up for anything that's missing. As for groats; this roasted grain just needs some water or chicken stock, a bit of onion and seasonings to turn it into something special.
Russians are undaunted in their love of sweets, and Euro Market has plenty. Try the gingerbread, honey poppyseed rolls, jellied candy, halvah, fruit-filled pierogi, beze (meringue cookies), multilayer cream wafers or the wide selection of fancy chocolates. And don't leave without a visit to the bakery counter up front, with homemade honey cakes, wafer cakes, Esterhazy torte, cream horns and pashka.
Beverage choices include single-bottle and six-packs of beers you won't find elsewhere, Hungarian, Georgian and Moldovan wines, sparkling and still bottled waters and sodas.
What else can you say to all this food, except Na Zdorovie (Cheers!)
Euro Market, 4603 Okeechobee Blvd. (just west of Military Trail), Suite 118, West Palm Beach, FL. Phone (561) 683-1911(561) 683-1911. Open Monday through Saturday 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Sunday 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Preston Herman Cook, 72, died after a brief illness at his Sharon Center home, with his family by his side, Wednesday, April 16, 2014. He was born June 23, 1941, in Lorain, to Wilbert Preston and Mary Ellen (Sikorski) Cook, who predeceased him.
A man of many gifts and talents, Preston had a keen intellect and skilled hands. He built databases and custom cabinets with equal precision. He taught himself the art of gourmet cooking, designed the home in which he and Lorraine raised their family, loved crunching numbers and chopping wood. After graduating from Kent State University, he enjoyed successes in his business career with Ohio Bell, AT&T and later, as a district manager for Litel Communications Corp. He also served as a 1st Lieutenant in the U.S. Army. His greatest satisfaction, however, came from his 12 years of substitute teaching in the Highland School District, to which he brought a passion for inspiring young minds.
He will be deeply missed by his devoted wife of nearly 45 years, Lorraine (Warner); children, Preston Joseph and Melissa (Ross) Roadruck; and brother, Dennis (Ruth) Cook. Held in loving memory by Joseph Richard Warner of Louisville; Marc (Gay Smith) Warner of Canton; Lynne (Michael) Dragomier of Canton; Marsha (Rod) McGregor of Hudson; Joel and Pam Roadruck of Cincinnati; nieces and nephews Lisa Cook Kirkpatrick; Dawn (Carl) Sommer; Kevin (Paula) Cook; John Warner; Michael (Terra) Dragomier; Matthew Dragomier; Drew McGregor; Kate McGregor; and great-nieces and nephews, Abigail Sommer, Lorelei Sommer, Micayla Cook, Dylan Cook, Nathan Cook, and Lucas Dragomier.
The family will receive friends from 6 until 8 P.M., at Cox Funeral Home, 1376 High St., Wadsworth, Wednesday, April 23, 2014. Preston's life will be celebrated with a memorial service at Cox Funeral Home, 11 A.M., Thursday, April 24, 2014, with Deacon Robin Adair officiating. For details about the service, please contact Cox Funeral Home, 330-335-3311, or visit their website.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests memorial contributions to Medina Creative Accessibility, which provides housing and affiliated services to developmentally disabled adults (www.medinacreativehousing.com).

Not surprisingly, the Gators came out flat Friday night, falling behind 10-0 to start the game and by as much as 19 points in the second half on their way to a 75-69 loss to Mississippi State in the quarterfinals of the SEC Tournament in Nashville. When your team has as little depth as Florida, winning in back-to-back nights can be difficult this late in the season.
A win would have secured an NCAA Tournament berth. Instead, the Gators find themselves with a long and uncomfortable wait until Sunday night to find out if they will end their two-year NCAA drought. With fellow bubble teams Minnesota, Illinois, Mississippi State, Rhode Island, and Washington still alive in their conference tournaments, making the NCAAs is by no means a sure bet at this point.
Aside from the first 10 minutes of the game, the Gators didn't really play poorly-- they shot 43% from the floor including 38% from three-point range while dominating the boards 33-20-- but the Bulldogs were just too good, shooting 57% for the game and making 10 of 20 three-point attempts.
The starting frontcourt of Chandler Parsons, Alex Tyus, and Vernon Macklin that played so well against Auburn Thursday night was held to a collective 18 points on Friday, and only scored three points in the first half. Guard Kenny Boynton led all scorers with 23 points, while Erving Walker also contributed 19 for Florida.
For the Bulldogs, Barry Stewart led with 17 points and all-time NCAA block leader Jarvis Varnado added 15 points and 4 blocked shots. All five Mississippi State starters finished in double digits for scoring.
Mississippi State now advances to play Vanderbilt in the semi-finals-- a game in which the Gators will strongly be pulling for Vandy to win. It seems highly unlikely that the SEC would get more than four teams into the NCAA Tournament, and a Bulldog trip to the SEC Final would be hard for the committee to ignore.
Should the Gators make the NCAAs, they would likely be somewhere around an 11 seed. Being seeded that low isn't necessarily a bad thing, because if they would get past their first-round game (against a five seed in that case) they would have a second round matchup against a possible four seed rather than a one or a two.
First things first, however. Until Sunday night, it's all just speculation.

Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill are the perfect duo; heading off to fight crime without leaving each other's sides, constant support and will forever be appreciative to have the other in his life.
Jenko (Tatum) and Schmidt (Hill) are partners for crying out loud. But not partners as in boyfriends, partners as in best friends and work buds. You'll understand the clarification after seeing it.
Anyways, the dynamic pair is back at it again with another so smoothly handled investigation, but this time on a college campus. Another drug is being distributed to students. One student's taking of the drug became fatal.
The guys' boss, Captain Dickson (Ice Cube), calls on them again to go find and arrest the dealer.
If you haven't seen '21 Jump Street," you should know that even in this film you don't have to know anything about the first. There are a few characters from it who play small roles in this new adventure, but it's a whole new endeavor Jenko and Schmidt are taking on.
Tatum and Hill seem like they've known each other for years with the chemistry they have on screen. They play brothers and it comes across as if they are in real life. There isn't enough praise for how well they seem to work together and how much they will make you laugh.
But let's not forget Ice Cube. The interaction between the three of them is highly amusing. Never has a boss been so intimidating that it was comical.
Getting back to the story, Jenko and Schmidt arrive at MC State and move into their dorm room. They schmooze a bit with their neighbors and start their classes like any other average student.
They create some relationships along the way and get distracted at some points because of the social scene. This also stirs some tension between the guys as one feels a bit different than the other about the way they're working together. But that doesn't stop them from getting the job done.
During the infiltration you'll be laughing at the easygoing and silly humor. Jenko doesn't come off as the brightest but it's his loving qualities which make him the best partner for Schmidt. Schmidt, the insecure of the two, shines through this journey growing as a cop and a friend. Both of them are endearing and good models for friendship and teamwork, even if it goes array sometimes.
Again, don't worry about not seeing the first film; both Tatum and Hill will entertain you.

LINCOLN, Neb. - The No. 13 Stanford softball team dropped a 7-1 decision at No. 16 Nebraska, Saturday, in the NCAA Lincoln Regional at Bowlin Stadium. The Cardinal falls to 38-20 overall, while the Huskers move to 42-13.
Senior pitcher Teagan Gerhart started the game in the circle and took the loss, dropping to 20-12. She gave up two runs on three hits in 1.0 innings. Freshman Kelsey Stevens entered the game in relief, giving up five runs on five hits in 4.2 innings. Nebraska's Tatum Edwards picked up the win, moving to 28-8.
Nebraska snagged an early 1-0 lead in the bottom of the first inning after loading the bases with no outs. Designated player Courtney Breault hit a sacrifice fly to left field, scoring Tatum Edwards.
The Huskers added to its lead in the bottom of the second on an RBI single with the bases loaded by catcher Taylor Edwards.
Stanford cut the lead to 2-1 in the top of the fifth inning. Sophomore Leah White hit an RBI single up the middle to score senior Tegan Schmidt from second.
Nebraska tacked on five runs in the bottom of the sixth inning to take a 7-1 lead. Tatum Edwards hit a sacrifice fly to left field, bringing home Mattie Fowler to start the rally. Taylor Edwards then hit an RBI single to centerfield, plating Jordan Bettiol. Breault hit a two-run single before Alicia Armstrong drew a bases loaded walk to cap off the scoring.
Stanford will face the winner of Northern Iowa-Tulsa in an elimination game on Saturday at 5:30 p.m. PT at Bowlin Stadium.

Now it can be told: Bennett Davison wasn't the only Arizona Wildcat to mess up Coach Lute Olson's hair the night Arizona defeated Kentucky to win the NCAA basketball championship.
"If you find the photos -- and they're there -- you'll see that Bennett is getting him from one side and I'm getting him from the other."
Confessing after ten years was Quynn Tebbs, who was a redshirt freshman, along with Justin Wessel, on that 1997 Wildcat national championship team.
Tebbs said, "Justin and I, as redshirts, were just along for the ride." Coach Olson and the rest of the team would disagree. Tebbs and Wessel contributed much to that national championship effort, providing fierce competition in practice and vocal support during games from the bench.
Quynn, now in the insurance business in Riverton, Utah, said he'll attend the Aug. 18 dinner honoring the 1997 national champs. It will be held that evening in the Grand Ballroom of the Westin La Paloma Resort & Spa, 3800 East Sunset Drive.
Tickets are $175 each or $2,000 for a table for ten. For more information, you can call 621-7491.
Tebbs and his wife, Ivy, have a 3-year-old son, Carsyn. "A second boy is on the way in a couple of weeks," Tebbs said.
Quynn was just back from an LDS mission in Sao Paulo, Brazil, that season. He spent 2 1/2 years with the Wildcats before transferring to Weber State in Utah. "It was tough to leave the Wildcats, but it was for personal reasons -- a family member had leukemia and I wanted to be nearer," Tebbs said.
"I wish I could have stayed."
What he remembers most about the Wildcats' 84-79 overtime victory over Kentucky for the national championship on March 31, 1997, at the RCA Dome in Indianapolis, is "storming the court afterward."
"I remember running around hugging everybody," Tebbs said. "Then we all went out after the game and had a good time."
That's not all he remembers.
"Everybody got to hold the National Championship trophy," he said. "My dad, Chuck, and my brother Brady were there at the game and I took the trophy to them. It was great."
Quynn agreed with most of his teammates, that other than the championship game against the Kentucky, the toughest contest Arizona played was against South Alabama in the first round. "South Alabama played that slow-down style," he said. "Being down by ten points to them was like being down 20 or 25 points to any other team. It was scary."
No kidding. Arizona trailed South Alabama by ten points with seven minutes left in the game, at the Pyramid in Memphis, Tenn. The Cats rallied to win, 65-57.
En route the national crown, Arizona defeated three No. 1 seeds, something that's never been duplicated. "The Kansas game (UA won, 85-82) was pretty tight," Tebbs said. "But I still think South Alabama was our toughest."
Arizona finished fifth in the Pacific-10 Conference and was a No. 4 seed for the NCAA Tournament, but Tebbs said he felt all along that the Wildcats had a "good shot at it."
"We had a lot of talent," he said. "The team chemistry was great. I mean, everybody got along very well. And with (Michael) Dickerson, (Mike) Bibby and (Miles) Simon -- wow! You get those guys going and we were tough to beat.
"We had a great sixth man in Jason Terry," said Tebbs. Terry is now one of the biggest stars of the National Basketball Association. He's with the Dallas Mavericks.
Tebbs said he is looking forward to getting together again with his old teammates. "We had great coaches and great guys on that team," he said. "It was a special bunch."

- Keep your finger off of the trigger and out of the trigger guard until ready to fire.
- Ear and eye protection must be worn before entering the range and at all times while inside the range firing area.
- If any problem should occur while on the firing line, leave your firearm at the position and contact the Range Master immediately. Smoking inside the building is prohibited. No food or drink is allowed inside the range firing area. Black powder firearms are prohibited. Tracer and metal piercing ammunition is strictly prohibited and grounds for being removed from the premises. Only holsters which provide for a "muzzle forward" carry and with a covered trigger guard will be permitted. If the muzzle points up range at any time during the draw, the holster will not be allowed. The Range Master's decision will be final. No one will be allowed to go forward of the firing line at any time under any circumstances. Children must be supervised at all times and will not be allowed to roam freely about the premises. No one under the age of age 21 may fire without an adult on the lane with them. Firearms and range bags will be inspected by the Range Master at any time while in the range facility. Any firearms the Range Master deems unsafe will not be permitted in the range firing area. You may only clean up your own brass. DO NOT remove brass from the brass buckets or brass previously left by other shooters. Only those persons who have purchased range time are permitted inside the firing area. Observers may watch from the observation area only. Up to four persons may be assigned to each lane; however, only one person is permitted at the firing position at a time.

Return to the introduction to Marianne's journal
June 11, 2004
Well, dear reader, this entry brings my journal to an end. I feel I should tug on my earlobe and sing "I'm so glad we had this time together," like Carol Burnett, or "Thanks for the memory," ala Bob Hope, but it would probably be more appropriate to hum a few bars of the Beatles', "The Long and Winding Road."
Rather than post the final entry in July, I promised LLB I'd do an author interview to coincide with the release of The Damsel in This Dress on the 27th (a month and a half from now - I know, because I'm counting each and every day until then). That leaves me with this final chance to wrap things up in terms of what getting published feels like, how it works, what I understand of it (and what I don't), and to say good-bye.
Over the last eighteen months - since I got The Call - I've learned quite a few things, and not only about writing. I'd like to share a few of them with you.
There's one more thing I should add to the list, and I'll share it with you after I relate this story. I knew a little girl once, years ago now. Nice kid. Kind of cute, but not beautiful. Kind of smart, but no rocket scientist. Working class family, a little on the poor side. Her parents drank. A lot. They were abusive. A lot. This little girl got smacked around a lot and eventually became a victim of both physical and sexual abuse. She never told anybody, because in those days, you didn't. Time passed. She did okay in school, but could have done better, but her parents' continuing spiral of alcohol and abuse had begun to take their toll on her. Whatever confidence she'd been born with, was gone.
She wanted to be in love, but was too shy and self-conscious to put herself out there. The guys she did date were a lot like her father. Big surprise. Eventually, she got married to a guy she adored who had so much baggage, the marriage failed under its weight. He left one day, just before her thirtieth birthday, saying he didn't want to be married anymore. He just wanted to go live in his car. She had no job, was estranged from her family, she didn't have a car, was living in a rented house with no money to pay the rent, and now the man she loved had taken off on whim.
Years passed. She got a job, but not a career. She dated occasionally, but not much. Money was tight. She had an argument with her father and finally told him off. He didn't get it. One day, she decided she needed a change of scenery, so she packed what little she owned into her car and drove to a new city. All she really had of any value at that point, was her beloved cat. And then, wouldn't you know it, the cat died.
Not for the first time, she thought about suicide. Why go on? No family, no money, no husband, no kids, no career, not getting any younger, friends far away . . . why bother? She was 34 and ready to call it quits.
But she didn't. From somewhere, deep down inside, she pulled something out. Maybe it was anger, maybe blind determination, maybe something that doesn't even have a name, but she decided she was about as far down as she was going to go. There were things in life she wanted to do, and dammit, she was going to do them. There was nowhere to go, now, but up.
She moved again, got a job as a temporary typist, took some classes to learn how to use a computer. She got a better job, met a man, got married, had a couple of kids - smart, funny, wonderful, beautiful kids. Yet, even with things on the upswing, she had her own baggage she'd brought with her. That lack of confidence thing, that unworthy-of-love thing that children of alcoholics deal with pretty much forever.
But there were still mountains to conquer. The one thing in life she had always wanted to do, but had never thought she could, was write and get published. So, she began to write. It was bad. She wrote some more, it was better. She studied and wrote and worked for it, and finally, it worked for her. Her first published book will hit the shelves in a month and a half.
The point of the story? Life's tough sometimes (and I'm not talking the kind of "tough" where you can't find the right designer jeans for your kindergartner). Some days, you just want to pull the covers over your head to hide your bruises, not only from the world, but from yourself. The world truly can be a lonely place, and your dreams may seem too far out of reach to ever get your fingers around. But whether you want to write or paint or fly or dance, if you give up, you'll never get there, and that's a fact.
So my final words to you, dear reader, whether you're an aspiring author or not, come from the mouth of an animated fish, and yet, are as true as they can be: Keep on swimming . . .
Thank you for letting me share my experiences with you. It's been both a privilege and an honor. I wish you success and happiness in all you do.

Editor's Note: This specification has already been published on dev2dev—this page represents the same specification, albeit in a slightly different, article-style format.
Service Data Objects is a technology that was originally developed as a joint collaboration between BEA and IBM and is now being developed by BEA, IBM, Oracle, SAP, Siebel, Sybase and XCalia. Service Data Objects (SDO) is designed to simplify and unify the way in which applications handle data. Using SDO, application programmers can uniformly access and manipulate data from heterogeneous data sources, including relational databases, XML data sources, Web services and enterprise information systems.
SDO is based on the concept of disconnected data graphs. Under the disconnected data graphs architecture, a client retrieves a data graph (i.e., a collection of tree-structured or graph-structured data objects) from a data source, mutates the data graph, and can then apply the data graph changes back to the data source.
The task of connecting applications to data sources is performed by data access services. Client applications can query data access services and get a data graph in response. Client applications can then send an updated data graph to a data access service to have the updates applied to the original data source. This architecture allows applications to deal principally with data graphs and data objects.
SDO enables both a static (or strongly typed) programming model and a dynamic (or loosely typed) programming model. This enables a simple programming model without sacrificing the dynamic model needed by tools and frameworks.
SDO also provides a metadata API, which allows applications, tools and frameworks to introspect the data model for a data graph. The SDO metadata API unifies data-source-specific metadata APIs to enable applications to uniformly handle data from heterogeneous data sources.


text: Delta loop antennas have been used by amateur radio operators since the early 1970's. The antenna was built with aluminum tubing and the apex was above the boom making the antenna top heavy. This type of construction didn't become popular as a standard antenna for the ham community because of its restrictions and installation difficulties. Now, amateur radio operators are experimenting with the new delta loop antenna because of its balanced design. Also, the weight is lighter then the quad and yagi antenna because of one less spreader making this antenna more manageable. This antenna can also be used on 40 meters as a rotatable. Now, with new polymer fibreglass support spreaders that are available, this antenna can now support larger volumes of ice and survive higher wind loads. There are many variations of the antenna as to how it is installed. I have found that with the apex at the bottom and below the boom, it can support the feedline easier and be more balanced. I have a 2 element 40 meter delta loop and have found it to be a joy because it has almost the same gain as a 3 element yagi and is considerable lighter. With proper calculations and antenna modeling, the experimenter builder can design a 7 band multi-element delta-loop antenna (10,12,15,17,20,30,40 meters) that will survive extreme weather conditions and have high gain. Now, the question is, what manufacturer has one of these antennas for sale? I would assume not many if any. We at deltaloopantenna.ca or .com manufacture 2 inch ID brackets X 3/16 inch wall. 3 and 4 inch ID X 1/4 inch wall. All brackets are made of 6061-T6 aluminum. The aluminum bracket is welded every 120 degrees and are designed to work as a boom clamp. 2 inch brackets can be used for 2 elements down to 20 meters, 3 inch for 4 elements down to 20/30 meters and 4 inch can be used for 30/40 meter delta loops. I have used 3 inch brackets for 40 meters but the boom was quite heavy being it was 1/4 inch thick. With the 4 inch bracket, the thickness of the boom can be less, possibly 3/16 inch thick thus making it lighter. These recommendations are only suggestions for the antenna experimenter.
