 The proper care and feeding of
vinyl records was - and still is - a big topic amongst audiophiles. As with
so many things, phonographs and platters have experienced a resurgence in popularity
in the couple decades as the world gets nuttier and people crave for a simpler,
saner time - imagined or otherwise. I remember back in the barracks at Robins AFB,
GA, where there was always at least one guy who would have a very extensive (pronounced
"expensive") stereo setup complete with an equipment rack, reel-to-reel tape player,
dual cassette tape deck, super-sensitive AM/FM receiver with a huge tuning knob
on the front, a turntable with a precisely balanced and weighted tone arm (with
a stylus that cost two month's pay for an enlisted man), a multi-hundred watt power
amplifier that never had the opportunity to put out more than a small percentage
of its capability due to barracks noise rules, a patch cable panel for routing signals,
and monster speakers...
 The term "ovonic" - a fairly unfamiliar word
these days - appeared in the May edition of Radio-Electronics, in an article
entitled, "All About Ovonics," just a few months after this news item ran in the
January issue (which I posted last month).
Ovonics is a portmanteau of "Ovshinsky" (from Stanford R. Ovshinsky, the inventor)
and "electronics." Read the "All About Ovonics" article for a deeper dive into the
subject. The big deal, which turned out to be not a big enough deal, was the use
of amorphous (strangely spelled "amphorous") glassy compounds as semiconductors
rather than the standard crystalline silicon structures. Maybe someday an enterprising
genius inventor type will give a rebirth to the concept...
 "It was a great idea for its time - a network
of NASA communications satellites high in geostationary orbit, providing nearly
continuous radio contact between controllers on the ground and some of the agency's
highest-profile missions: the space shuttles, the International Space Station, the
Hubble Space Telescope, and dozens of others. The satellites were called TDRS -
short for Tracking and Data Relay Satellite - and the first was launched in 1983
on the maiden voyage of the space shuttle Challenger. Twelve more would follow,
quietly providing a backbone for NASA's orbital operations. But they've gotten old,
they're expensive, and in the 40 years since they began, they've been outpaced by
commercial satellite networks. So what comes next? That's the $278M question - but,
importantly, it's not a multibillion-dollar question..."
 How RF circuits work have long been referred
to as "black magic," even sometimes by people who fully understand the theory behind
the craft. To me, the ways in which a transmission line - be it coaxial cable, microstrip,
or waveguide - can be manipulated and controlled with various combinations of lengths
and terminations is what most qualifies as "magic." Sure, I know the equations and
understand (mostly) what's happening with incident and reflected waves, etc., and
how the impedance and admittance circles of a
Smith chart graphically trace out what's happening, but you have to admit there's
something mystical about it all. Fortunately, Mr. John Marshall published this
"Antenna Matching with Line Segments" article in the September 1948 issue of
QST magazine...
 Anatech Electronics offers the industry's
largest portfolio of high-performance standard and customized RF and microwave filters
and filter-related products for military, commercial, aerospace and defense, and
industrial applications up to 40 GHz. Three new filter models have been introduced
- a cavity bandpass filter with a bandwidth of 15 MHz ±2 MHz, an insertion
loss of 3.5 dB; a ceramic duplexer with a Band 1 frequency of 824 to 835 MHz
and a Band 2 frequency of 869 to 880 MHz; and an LC highpass filter with
a pass band of 402 to 1500 MHz with an insertion loss of less than 1.0 dB.
Custom RF power directional coupler designs can be designed and produced when a
standard cannot be found, or the requirements are such that a custom approach is
necessary...
 Unlike today when resources of all types
seem to be endlessly available, during World War II countries needed to collect
and recycle much in the way of metal, rubber, cloth, and other basic materials for
re-purposing into products used in fighting the enemy. Media coverage of bottle,
metal, and tire drives showed children pulling Radio Flyer wagons loaded to overflowing
with such items gathered from trash piles and soliciting neighborhood residents
for anything that could be spared. Raw materials were not the only type of items
needed, however. "Use it up, Wear it out, Make it do, or Do without" was the slogan.
Finished goods like electronic components - vacuum tubes, transmissions cable, transmitters
and receivers, tuning capacitors, d'Arsonval meter movements, and other parts -
were sorely needed by manufacturers both for building new equipment and for servicing
damaged gear. After the war was won, the
War Assets Administration made good on the government's promise to reward citizens
for performing their patriotic duty. This four-page spread in a 1947 edition of
Radio News is an example of the effort to make surplus components available...
 It was a lot of work, but I finally finished
a version of the "RF & Electronics Schematic & Block Diagram Symbols" that
works well with Microsoft Office™ programs Word™, Excel™, and Power Point™.
This is an equivalent of the extensive set of amplifier, mixer, filter, switch,
connector, waveguide, digital, analog, antenna, and other commonly used symbols
for system block diagrams and schematics created for Visio™. Each of the 1,000 or
so symbols was exported individually from Visio in the EMF file format, then imported
into Word on a Drawing Canvas. The EMF format allows an image to be scaled up or
down without becoming pixelated, so all the shapes can be resized in a document
and still look good. The imported symbols can also be UnGrouped into their original
constituent parts for editing. Check them out!

 The
G−Line (aka G−String) RF transmission system is a rather amazing invention contrived
through out-of-the-box thinking by its inventor, Dr. George Goubau (from whence
the "G" in the name derives). He determined that a sort of waveguide could be made
with a single conductor surrounded by insulation with a specific dielectric constant
that would cause the dielectric-air interface to reflect the wave in a manner similar
to atmospheric channels that facilitate long distance communications. The G-Line
is designed to efficiently transmit UHF television signals (470 - 806 MHz),
and like a waveguide exhibits a lower cutoff frequency (~300 MHz), thus acting
like a highpass filter. G−Line has its weak points, like that it must not come near
to obstacles that will affect the dielectric-air interface or the line will radiate
like an antenna. Also, over time the insulation cracks and/or absorbs moisture and
changes the impedance parameters, thus affecting the transmission characteristics...

 While not many people are likely to build
this
R-C bridge circuit with vacuum tubes for use during design and troubleshooting,
this 1947 Radio News magazine article has a good basic description of operation
of any calibrated bridge circuit used to measure an unknown value. Interestingly,
a "magic eye" or "cat's eye" tube is used in lieu of a meter movement to give a
visual indication of an open, short, intermittence, poor power factor, and low "Q,"
as well as when the selected switch position correctly identifies the value of the
resistor or capacitor under test. Note that in that era μfd = μF and μμfd = pF...

 As is frequently the case, John T. Frye's
intrepid teenage technophile experimenters,
Carl Anderson and Jerry Bishop, find themselves in an unplanned adventure. Often
times they end up applying their electronics knowledge to bail themselves out of
trouble, but this time the pair - and a friend - ended up helping the police catch
some bad guys (an oft-occurring theme). As you will see after reading "All's Fair
--," the device used would some day (today) be used by automobile manufacturers,
at the behest of law enforcement agencies, to enable remote control of somebody
else's vehicle with a "kill switch." This technodrama appeared in the September
1963 issue of Popular Electronics magazine...
 "The airbags in your car… the camera on your
video doorbell... the phone or other electronic device you're reading this on right
now. The everyday products that make modern life possible wouldn't be able to run
without key electrical components maintaining functionality and stability for years
at a time. And yet, these electrical components experience
complex thermal and mechanical loads during the daily course of their operation,
or, in the case of the airbag, during long-term passive cycles of environmental
heating and cooling while they wait unused within a car's interior. As producers
and consumers require ever more from electronic devices, those devices are becoming
more powerful, further increasing the thermal loads being subjected to vital components..."
 For a long time I have been scanning and
posting schematics & parts lists like this one featuring the
International Kadette Model 400 4-Tube Battery-Operated Superheterodyne radio
in graphical format. As with all the other vintage articles posted, it requires
running OCR on them to separate the textual content from the graphics. This particular
Radio Service Data Sheet came from the July 1936 issue of Radio-Craft magazine.
There are still many people who restore and service these vintage radios, and often
it can be difficult or impossible to find schematics and/or tuning information.

 Often, the photo on the covers of magazines
is related to a feature article within, but in the case of the March 1954 Radio-Electronics,
only a couple paragraphs are devoted to it. Although more commonplace back in the
day, mention of a
Lecher wire for measuring VSWR values of the antenna under test caused me to
look it up. The Wikipedia entry says, "Lecher line or Lecher wires is a pair of
parallel wires or rods that were used to measure the wavelength of radio waves,
mainly at VHF, UHF and microwave frequencies. They form a short length of balanced
transmission line (a resonant stub). When attached to a source of radio-frequency
power such as a radio transmitter, the radio waves form standing waves along their
length. By sliding a conductive bar that bridges the two wires along their length,
the length of the waves can be physically measured. Austrian physicist Ernst Lecher,
improving on techniques used by Oliver Lodge and Heinrich Hertz, developed...
 AC alternators replaced DC generators back
in the 1940s as demand for conditioned electrical power in vehicles rose beyond
that needed for ignition and lighting. Radios are the most notable additions, and
because amplitude modulation (AM) broadcasts were the dominant method of the day
for commercial stations, noiseless electrical supplies were required. Spark-induced
noise from ignition systems was bad enough since its frequency varied with engine
RPM, but the DC generator's commutator sparking noise - much of it right smack in
the audio frequency range - was just too much for the public to endure if widespread
acceptance of radio was to be realized. Remember that in the era, a radio was not
standard equipment in cars and trucks so customers needed to be convinced the extra
expense would be worth their hard-earned dollars. Use of a 3-phase alternator reduces
the component performance requirements for conversion to DC...
 "An on-chip circuit that can produce up to
six microwave photons simultaneously has been created by researchers in France
and Germany. Gerbold Ménard and Ambroise Peugeot at the University of Paris-Saclay
and colleagues built their device by connecting a Josephson junction to a microwave
resonator. While the team did not establish that the photons are entangled, previous
research suggests that the device could be a source of multiple entangled photons.
The ability to produce pairs of entangled photons is vital for many quantum technologies.
Most often, it involves a technique called parametric down-conversion, whereby a
single photon is split into two lower-energy photons after interacting with a nonlinear
optical medium. This technique could be used to produce higher numbers of entangled
photons, but such a system would be bulky and complex. Ménard, Peugeot and colleagues
have now shown that multiple photons can be produced..."
 In a continuing effort to provide archival
material for researchers and for anyone seeking information on a particular radio
restoration project, this Radio Service Data Sheet for the
Crosley "Chief" Model 132-1 radio from a 1933 edition of Radio-Craft is being
posted. An Internet search will show that there are many people engaging in such
activities. Restoring my Crosley Model 03BC console radio would have been more difficult
if not for others who have done similar work to assist the "community." I generally
despise the phrase "giving back" because it is usually uttered by people that really
owe nothing to anyone, but somehow feel obligated to do so or are conditioned to
automatically say such things. This is a case where I benefitted from somebody else's
work and there is an opportunity to return the favor...

 These days it is probably rare that a person
would find the need to construct a custom
transformer for a power supply since just about anything you need can be found
on websites like eBay and Amazon. However, there are still many homebrew types out
there who enjoy the challenge (and maybe nostalgia) of creating a transformer for
a special need. For those folks, this article from a 1952 issue of Radio−Electronics
magazine will be a welcome bit of information. Author T.W. Dresser presents
the fundamental equations and design methodology needed for winding a transformer
on a laminated steel core frame. There are plenty of abandoned transformers which
can be stripped down and rebuilt as required. Even the newest electronic devices
- radios, TVs, Blu−ray players, kitchen appliances, etc. - have a transformer of
some sort...
 Transistors were still relatively new when
these cartoons were published in the September 1959 issue of Popular Electronics
magazine. Most people had never seen a transistor, much less handled one. Soldering
irons used for working on the point-to-point wiring used on vacuum tube gear could
also be used for soldering the old copper guttering and downspouts - at least the
ones that got hot enough and had enough thermal inertia to melt solder on sheet
steel chassis'. Does the guy in this General Transistor infomercial look a bit like
Dilbert - or maybe I should ask does Dilbert look a bit like this guy? BTW, are
you thinking what I'm thinking about the picture on the bottom left?
 "Most electromagnetic interferences (EMIs)
in the field are conducted emissions/immunities, radiated emissions/immunities,
electric fast transients (EFT), and electrostatic discharge (ESD). There are, however,
other types of EM-related disturbances, including
low-frequency magnetic fields, the subject of this article. The power-frequency
(50-60 Hz) magnetic field is a direct result of currents flowing in power networks.
When low-frequency currents flow in the entire power network, depending on the size
of the current-circulating loop, the impact on equipment/products in the environment
can be significant. A typical case is an equipment with a cathode ray tube (CRT)
screen. The display on a CRT screen would appear to wobble due to the presence of
a nearby low-frequency field1. Professional audio equipment such as electric guitars,
tape recorders, and loudspeakers are also sensitive to external magnetic fields..."
 As quoted in this 1954 Radio & Television
News magazine article about analog[ue] computers as compared to digital computers,
"Add two and two. Coming from an analogue computer, the answer would most likely
be, 3.999 or 4.001." While that is a true statement, there is one important feature
that an analog computer had over digital computers of the era: once initially set
up with a transfer function, outputs were nearly instantaneous as the input was
varied over a range of values, whereas a digital computer could take quite a bit
of time to crank through involved mathematical equations. Performing tasks such
as computing aircraft flight paths and other sequential operations was the analog
computer's forte. If you needed to calculate exact values for atomic research or
cryptographic code cracking, that was and still is the domain of digital computers...

 Don't miss this chance to observe one of
the longest possible
lunar eclipses
tonight, Sunday, May 15th - a
super flower blood moon. The earth's umbral shadow first touches the edge at
10:27 pm EDT, then totality begins at 11:29 pm. The 85-minute-long total
eclipse is midway at 12:11 am, then leaves the umbral shadow at 12:53 am.
A lesser darkening of the moon happens on both sides of the eclipse while in
the earth's penumbral shadow, but it is not as stark. A second, nearly identical,
lunar eclipse will occur in November of this year, so if the weather does not cooperate
in allowing you to see this one, maybe you will get luckier in half a year. The
skies here in Greensboro, NC, are forecast to be clear tonight. I hope yours are,
