Message-ID: <074801ce5cd3$937c3a10$ba74ae30$@com>

To Our Valued Customers,

 

We will be releasing a wireless control system in the near future.

 

We are looking for several test sites, folks who are willing to install this
system and give us feedback over a month or so.

 

The system in its initial release will replace the control cable.
Installation is simple. Just disconnect the current control  cable, and wire
the TX unit to the shack switch and wire the RX unit to the phase
controller, simple point to point.

 

The range that this system will cover can be out to over 2000ft.

 

If interested please contact me directly. We will evaluate your QTH and
decide if that is a good Beta candidate. We will offer some special pricing
and or other value in exchange for your efforts and reporting.

 

The goal at this time is proof of range in a variety of locations and
configurations.

 

THANK YOU,  Dick  KO7N   541.543.9921

Funny you should ask.  I am already doing exactly that.  The only wire that
goes to the 4 sq is the coax.  All switching is done remotely and wireless.
I am also feeding the array dc voltage via a bias t.  I talked to you about
this Lee when I purchased the array.

Since I have the experience, I would be more than happy to give it a good
workout.

Obviously, this went to the reflector.  I apologize for that. I  should have
not been so quick on the draw.

In any event my intent was to indicate that this approach to controlling the
array(s) works just fine.   I have been doing it now for almost a year with
great success.  In addition, I have the ability to remotely switch in a
gelcel to power the array for "A" "B" testing of power feed.  
Once again, sorry to spray the ether with this dribble.
