Marine VHF antennas have not changed much since VHF radios were adopted by recreational boaters in the 1960s. We have seen improved durability and materials, optimized transmission and reception range ...

In the first half of this paper (Engineering Extra, Apr. 14), I discussed the need for an accurate antenna capable of repeatable measurements and presented the design of NPR Lab’s transportable ground ...

Malvern, Pa. – Second-generation MOS monolithic ICs from Vishay Intertechnology allow designers to upgrade the performance of UHF and VHF tuners, VCRs, set-top boxes and multimedia equipment, the ...

I viewed my first television image when I was all of six years old. What made this event remarkable was that the TV station was some 200 miles distant—really deep fringe reception. My dad was an early ...
