RCA Victor Models 54Bx Radio Data Sheet

RCA Victor Models 54B1, 54B-N, 54B2, 54B3 Radio Data Sheet 335, May 1946, Radio-Craft - RF CafeSometimes finding an existing instance of one of the vintage radios is difficult or impossible. The RCA Victor Model 54Bx portables are an exception. Plenty can be found for purchase on eBay as this is written, as was a 54B1, 54B3, and a 54B4. I did a capture of some of the listing images for a Model 54B2, and had Archive.org story a copy for once the eBay site deletes it. In the internal photos, all four miniature vacuum tubes (3S4, 1S5, 1R5, 1T4) can be clearly seen. Note also in the photos you can see where, per the alignment procedure, rubber bands have been place around the tubes in order to keep them from moving. The extremely cramped space required particular attention to the routing of interconnect wires...

Sangamo Electric Company

Sangamo Electric Company, May 1950 Radio & Television News - RF CafeRemember the Sunday comics feature for kids where there was a picture drawn with things wrong in it, and you had to find them all? This 1950 advertisement for the Sangamo Electric Company's line of capacitors, which appeared in Radio & Television News magazine, could server as a modern-day version for the Cancel Culture "woke" crowd that believes it has a duty to criticize and impugn everything it happens to fear, not like, or not understand. My list is at the bottom of the page if you want to compare it to yours. On other Sangamo ad post pages I have provided a bit of research on the background of "Samgamo" to try to determine whether the use of Native Americans (aka "indians" at the time) was based on a local tribe. No link has ever been found. Below the ad are a few of the items discovered...

Rainy Day Amusements, 1982 Old Farmer's Almanac

Rainy Day Amusements, 1982 Old Farmer's Almanac - RF CafeThe "Rainy Day Amusements" feature was not usually a mathematical challenge; for that, see the "Old & New Mathematical Puzzles" section. Some years they were worthwhile, end others not so much so. 1982 was a pretty good year for Rainy Day Amusements, so they are included here. Each autumn I used to anxiously await the appearance of the newest edition of The Old Farmer's Almanac on the store shelf, and such was the case with this 1982 issue. It is not that I was/am an avid farmer, just that I enjoy reading the anecdotes, tales, and interesting historical tidbits included amongst the pages along with tables of high and low tides, moon and sun rising and setting times...

Origin of "HAM" for Amateur Radio Operators

Origin of the Name "HAM" for Amateur Radio Operators - RF CafeThis story was posted sometime around 2009. Since that time, research has been conducted by members of the Harvard Wireless Club regarding the veracity of the claim. RF Cafe visitor Fred Hopengarten, Esq. (K1VR), wrote to apprise me of the situation. It concludes as follows: "Back in 1999, the late K3UOC, who received his Ed.D. from the Harvard Graduate School of Education and was very active with our club, wrote: Note: This legend has been published and told by word-of-mouth countless times over the past 90 years. Unfortunately, it isn't so. HWC members researched this story, even obtaining the copy of the Congressional Record for the date in question. We could find no record of Mr. Hyman appearing before congress. We have to admit, though, it's a very entertaining story!"

Fundamental Crystal Control for Ultra-High Frequencies

Fundamental Crystal Control for Ultra-High Frequencies, April 1932 QST - RFCafeYou always need to pay careful attention to "breakthrough" type articles when they appear in April issues, since many magazines have a tradition of burying an "April Fools' Day" item without notice. This April 1932 issue of QST magazine seems to be legitimate. The term "lycopodium pattern" aroused my suspicion, but it turns out to refer to a pattern of vibration that resembles the needle orientation of certain pines and cedars. As radio frequencies continued to increase during the early years of "wireless" development, the use of quartz crystals as a stable reference source ran into a physical limitation because as crystal slices reached a certain thinness, overtone and subharmonics appeared that caused problems in circuits. A new mineral called tourmaline saved the day. With an elasticity much greater than quartz, tourmaline is able to vibrate at higher fundamental frequencies for a given thickness...

Mathematical Puzzles, 1982 Old Farmer's Almanac

Mathematical Puzzles, 1982 Old Farmer's Almanac - RF CafeEach autumn I used to anxiously await the appearance of the newest edition of The Old Farmer's Almanac on the store shelf, and such was the case with this 1982 issue. It is not that I was/am an avid farmer, just that I enjoy reading the anecdotes, tales, and interesting historical tidbits included amongst the pages along with tables of high and low tides, moon and sun rising and setting times, astronomical events, and weather patterns expected for the year that lay ahead. Most of all, I liked working the puzzles and riddles. Over the years the difficulty levels gradually got lower and lower (aka dumbed down), to the point where for the last decade or so I have not even bothered buying the OFA. Now it is full of numbnut stuff. Because quite a few of the Mathematical Puzzles from the older editions are worthy of an engineer's cerebratio

Webinar: Pulse Stability Measurement of Radar Signals

They appreciate your registering, but if for some reason it doesn't work, click on the thumbnail above to go directly to it. "With the arrival of sophisticated radar and communication systems, phase noise has become the most important factor engineers focus on during the design and validation phase. Phase stability is the key parameter for defining target acquisition in radars, spectral integrity in communication systems and precision beam steering capabilities in active electronic scanned array antennas (AESA)..."

The Conical Monopole Antenna

The Conical Monopole Antenna, November 1966 QST - RF CafeIt is important to concentrate your transmitter power into the proper beam if you wish to deliver the best signal to the other fellow's receiving antenna. This has logically led to the popularity of the Yagi beam antenna on the higher-frequency amateur bands. A beam antenna for the 80-meter band should have a 140-foot reflector and a 77-foot boom on a 250-foot tower. This makes the beam antenna impractical for the 80-meter band, and even for 40-meter operation a full-size Yagi is a forbidding structure to the neighbor's narrow-minded view - even a well-trained XYL might view such a monster beam with alarm. There is no easy solution to the need for a good DX antenna at low frequency, but the conical monopole antenna may be of interest to the more eager radio amateur as a more practical solution. The conical monopole antenna is a base-fed vertical antenna that has an omni-directional pattern in azimuth but with an elevation...

Axiom Blog: Test Equipment Are Investments in Low Carbon Footprint

Axiom Blog: Test Equipment Are Investments in Low Carbon Footprint - RF CafeAxiom Test Equipment, an electronic test equipment rental and sales company, has published a new blog post that aims at informing people about the importance of carbon neutrality and about the different test equipment that support it with the help of regenerative energy. It suggests a thinking-out-of-the-box approach regarding how "test applications can strive for low carbon footprints by characterizing the quality of a device under test (DUT) that supports carbon neutrality, such as regenerative energy in an EV's charging system. Efficient use of energy is possible by feeding power generated by a DUT during the measurements back to the power grid, rather than dissipating the energy as heat lost to the environment." On a single DUT (Device Under Test) basis that might seem insignificant, but when hundreds of millions of vehicles are being tested of time, the energy saved can be enormous...

The RCA Antennalyzer

The RCA Antennalyzer, May 1946, Radio-Craft - RF CafeIt is little wonder that advancements in technology, mathematics, finance, medicine, chemistry, and other disciplines requiring massive numerical computation began accelerating at a rapid pace following the invention of computers. The mechanical computers of Blaise Pascal and Charles Babbage were some of the earliest attempts to make laborious, repetitious calculations faster and less error prone, and they quickly led to many other types of general- and special-purpose machines that by the mid-twentieth century were calculating ballistic flight paths, astronomical positions, electrical circuit functions, probabilities, and other quantities. Programmable electronics computers like the ENIAC greatly enhanced the ability to apply mathematics to just about any problem. However, even by the early Apollo era the government and private institutions employed teams of human calculators to crank out large volumes of tabular data...

Chinese Long March to Reenter Atmosphere Uncontrolled

Chinese Long March to Reenter Atmosphere Uncontrolled - RF Cafe"China launched the first module for its space station into orbit late Wednesday, but the mission launcher also reached orbit and is slowly and unpredictably heading back to Earth. The Long March 5B, a variant of China's largest rocket, successfully launched the 22.5-metric-ton Tianhe module from Wenchang Thursday local time... Designed specifically to launch space station modules into low Earth orbit, the Long March 5B uniquely uses a core stage and four side boosters to place its payload directly into low Earth orbit... this core stage is now also in orbit and is likely to make an uncontrolled reentry over the next days or week as growing interaction with the atmosphere drags it to Earth. If so, it will be one of the largest instances of uncontrolled reentry of a spacecraft and could potentially land on an inhabited area..."

Radios Serviced by Observation

Radios Serviced by Observation, September 1945, Radio-Craft - RF CafeAnyone who has done a lot of electronics troubleshooting - especially on a wide variety of hardware - knows that proficiency depends on acquiring a 'feel' for how things ought to be. An oft-given example is that bank tellers and store clerks are taught to spot counterfeit bills not by showing them what all the different phony currency looks like, but what real money looks like. That way, anything that does not look familiar is readily apparent. The same philosophy has served technicians and engineers well since the beginning of electrical and electronic circuits. The more senses that can be drawn upon to facilitate troubleshooting, the more quickly you are likely to pinpoint the problem. Depending on the symptoms of the failure, sniffing the assembly for toasted or cracked components and looking for discolored areas is a good first step for catastrophic scenarios. Broken wires and failed solder joints are very common causes, as are partially plugged-in or contaminated...

The Radio We Could Send to Heck

The Radio We Could Send to Heck - RF Cafe"There were few bright spots in the pandemic summer of 2020. One of the most dazzling was the flight of U.S. astronauts to the International Space Station and their safe return to Earth aboard a commercial spacecraft from SpaceX. This demonstration was significant for many reasons, one of which was that it suggested a future in which NASA, freed from the demands of getting people to low Earth orbit, could aim much farther. Perhaps as far as Venus. Excitement over a possible mission to Venus was stoked by the (now somewhat disputed) discovery of phosphine gas - a possible sign of microbial life - in that planet's atmosphere. But the second planet from the sun has such an extreme environment that the longest-lasting lander, the Soviet Venera 13, was able to send data for only 2 hours and 7 minutes. The average surface temperature on Venus is 464 °C..."

Sperry Gyroscope Company

Sperry Gyroscope Company, April 1946, Radio-Craft - RF CafeAt the end of World War II, much of the basic technology developed under the cover of secrecy was made available to the public for the purpose of stimulating research and development for commercial purposes. As with selling surplus material to the American public at significant discounts, the plan was to reward citizens for a five-year-long sacrifice in the effort to beat back the advances of Communism, Socialism, Marxism, and the other oppressive forms of "isms" around the world. History shows that the effort resulted in a major post-war era of prosperity and a general feeling of well-being by the country. This Sperry Gyroscope Company advertisement appeared in a 1946 issue of Radio-Craft magazine, promoting its development of gyroscopically stabilized marine radar. Other magazines of the era and into the 1970s...

Radar Safety Warning: "Don't Cross the Streams"

Radar Safety Warning: "Don't Cross the Streams" - RF CafeHere is an interesting article on the EE Times website entitled, "Radar Safety Warning: 'Don't Cross the Streams'." In it, author Junko Yoshida tells a tale of potential problems that can emerge when a highway filled with radar-equipped vehicles need to content with each other's broadcasts. He begins, "The little-noted issue of radar safety is emerging as a potential Achilles heel of driver-assist and highly automated vehicles: radar signals interfere with each other. Radar has become an essential sensing modality complementing CMOS imaging cameras. Radar works in all weather conditions and enables a range of automated driving features, including automatic emergency Brakes (AEB). But radars can be foiled or faulty if they end up, like Ghostbusters' particle accelerators, crossing each other's streams..."

Bionics a Weird World

Bionics a Weird World, October 1962 Popular Electronics - RF CafeHere is an interesting article that appeared in a 1962 issue of Popular Electronics magazine discussing some of the early electronic system developments that were based on sensory elements found in nature. I'm a bit surprised and disappointed that the author made the mistake of equating a bat's sound-based detection and navigation system to radar rather than sonar. Yes, the principles of operation are the same regarding transmitting a signal and then computing the distance based on the round-trip time of the reflected signal, but there is a fundamental difference between radar which uses radio (the 'ra' part of radar) signals and sonar which uses the sound (the 'so' part of sonar) signals. I would bet that if I had the following December or January edition of the magazine, I would find a letter to the editor...
