Re: [IRCA] 1610 signal

["David Gleason" <david@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Could Kintronic have some kind of authorization to test the antennas at a
higher power? They may be looking into some of the concerns about the
antennas? There have been reports about the need for analysis of skywave
angles and directional usage of the Kin-Star antenna. They have a paper on
the system at http://www.kintronic.com/site/techpapers/KTL_NAB_Paper.pdf so
you can see the current state of the design of these low-height antennas
that perform much like a conforming quarter wave (90 degree) tower. At the
end, it says that operation in DA systems is subject of further
development... maybe that is what we have here?

I doubt if it is Kintronics because for the distant
reports and signal strength it sounds like high power
and not 400 watts.
