  • History, It Is Checkered
    Historical Notes ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Mon, 3 Nov 1997 23:30:10 +0500 From: "Chuck Rippel" <crippel@...> Subject: [R-390] BA Receiver Fun - Targets Thanks for the many notes I received about posting some targets for our BA receivers. I was astounded at the number of affirmative replies received. As many know, I find listening a great deal of fun and very challenging. There are basically two styles of listening. Short Wave Listening is where the operator tunes in to a particular program. Short Wave Broadcast DX'ing is listening for very weak or seasonally challenging radio broadcasts or stations. In most cases, the language used by the broadcaster is not english as they are serving the local population. It is DX'ing v/s Listening where I intend to focus. Being a good SWBC DX'er is a bit like being a good detective. Various clues are pieced together to arrive at a conclusion. In our case, identifying an unknown station. Some of those clues are: Time Frequency Language Programming Music Style Time: Audibility of a station depends on the time it is broadcasting and the frequency it is on. Typically, the frequencies over 10 mhz are best during local day light and below, local dark. Signals below 7 mhz generally require darkness between the transmitter and receiver locations. However, not always and we will explore the opportunities when that rule can be expanded a bit. Frequency: Armed with the time and knowledge of propagation, frequency is the next big clue. There is general frequency consideration or band consideration. An example might be if a station on 4915 were being heard at 2200UTC on the East Coast.

  • IF DECK TIPS R390A IF Deck Alignment
    IF DECK TIPS R390A IF Deck Alignment (Chuck Rippel) R390's made after 1954 and those with mod 2 stamped on the IF chassis have a field change installed to the mechanical filters. Filter input and output trimmer capacitors have been added. The 4 input trimmer capacitors are found by removing the 2 square can on top of the IF chassis using the single nut in the top. The 4 output trimmer capacitors are located behind 4 holes in the left hand side of the IF deck. The IF chassis will need to be loose but still electrically connected to complete these procedures. An accurate counter, analog VTVM and a signal generator capable of outputting 455.00 KC, is required for these alignments. Connect the VTVM to the Diode Load bus on the rear and configure it to read a negative voltage of approximately -7vdc. Set the receiver FUNCTION control to MGC, BFO to OFF and the LOCAL GAIN control to a comfortable level. Lift and tilt the IF deck resting the front captive (green) screw over the front panel. You should be able to gain access to the mechanical filter trimmer capacitors through the large ventilation holes in the main chassis. Locate the cable running from the rear of the IF deck to the *IF OUT* BNC connector in the rear panel, upper left side. Unplug the cable from the IF deck only. Also unplug J-513 and the one next to it. Plug the cable running from the rear IF Out jack into J-513 on the IF deck.

  • A Lot Has Changed in a Decade.When Rockwell Collins Spun
    a lot has changed in a decade. When Rockwell Collins spun off from Rockwell International and started trading shares on the New York Stock Exchange in 2001, our company didn’t offer business jet cabin solutions, for example, or integrated systems for ground vehicles. Suitcase-size satellite communication equipment, virtual environments and unmanned aircraft systems weren’t as common as today. And when employees talked about “tweets,” you assumed it was a noise a bird made, not a way to communicate with a colleague. Over the last 10 years, companies around the world have made exponential advances in knowledge and computational capabilities, and Rockwell Collins is no exception. Today, our company’s breakthroughs in GPS technology, communication capabilities and avionics are supporting U.S. and coalition forces deployed around the world. In addition, an extensive fleet of aircraft — including business jets, regional aircraft and airliners, as well as military tankers, transports and rotary wing platforms — is flying safer and more efficiently with Rockwell Collins’ next-generation capabilities. With one decade behind us, it’s a good time to ask, “What’s next?” While no one can predict the future with certainty, a look at global drivers of change and macro-level trends often provides a glimpse of the changes coming in the aerospace and defense industry. In the next pages, you’ll read more about the underlying forces shaping our business environment and the anticipated effects. Editor’s note: There are a number of classifications for developed and developing countries. For the sake of simplicity, in this article, developed countries are defined as all nations in Europe and Northern America, plus Japan, Australia and New Zealand.

  • Rockwell Collins, Inc
    IMPORTANT TAX INFORMATION FOR ROCKWELL SHAREOWNERS PLEASE RETAIN FOR YOUR RECORDS July 3, 2001 Dear Rockwell Shareowner: On June 29, 2001, Rockwell International Corporation ("Rockwell") distributed all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of Rockwell Collins, Inc. (“Collins”) to holders of Rockwell Common Stock. In the distribution (the "Distribution"), each holder of Rockwell Common Stock received one share of Common Stock of Collins for every one share of Rockwell Common Stock held as of the close of business on June 15, 2001. Shareowners do not need to surrender or exchange their Rockwell stock certificates in order to receive the Collins shares to which they are entitled and will not be receiving new Rockwell stock certificates. Your ownership of Collins shares initially will be registered only in book-entry form, and you will receive a stock distribution statement indicating the number of Collins shares that have been credited to you. You will not receive a certificate for Collins shares unless you request one. All Rockwell shareowners will receive full and fractional shares of Collins Common Stock based on the number of shares of Rockwell Common Stock held. Fractional shares of Collins Common Stock which Rockwell shareowners would be entitled to receive will not be aggregated and sold. Rockwell has received a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") to the effect that the Distribution qualifies as a tax-free distribution to holders of Rockwell Common Stock for U.S. federal income tax purposes. This ruling, while generally binding upon the IRS, is subject to certain factual representations and assumptions which, if incorrect in any material respect, would cause the ruling to become invalid.

  • Dinosaur Concepts - Why Are We Always So Conservative?
    Dinosaur Concepts - why are we always so conservative? By Nils Schiffhauer The digital short-wave world: the SDR-14 is the size of a book The Icom IC-R9500 has received enough praise by now. The demand can barely be satisfied - surprising enough, considering the price of around 12000 Euro. Everybody wants one. And for the one who does not yet have it, his piggy-bank still needs a little feeding. It is high time that Nils Schiffhauer should look at it from another perspective - an interruption, a "Not so fast!" The history of receivers for the radio hobby field ran alongside the history of professional receivers for many years: Professional technologies showed up in slimmed-down form with Yaesu, Icom & Co. after a time-delay of some years. Of course, far too few manufacturers of professional devices practised what is today known as line extension. But at least firms such as Watkins-Johnson and JRC took the initiative and modified their professional designs for the high-end hobby market, at the same time addressing governmental purchasers in the Third World. However, it was with the advent of DSP that the professional and hobby spheres began to drift apart - ever so gradually at first. From a technological viewpoint, when we stand in front of dinosaur concepts such as the IC-R9500 [1] or a Hilberling PT8000 transceiver [2] this certainly becomes clear to everyone. (Clearly, if parenthetically: These radios are wonderful and highly desirable. But they portray the past, if admittedly on a very exalted plane!) 1 The Icom IC-R9500.
