Heat Dissipation Arrangement = Large Pile of Snow! Great video and info as always - ty!
Thanks!
I can remember a time when I had sort of a disdain for SMA and BNC connectors, but becoming more portable is easier with them. Keep up the content providing Steve!
Will do!
Nice build. Bulkhead SMAs are usually mounted in 0.250" holes or 6mm. Seems loose at first but after you snug the nut really good its not going anywhere. Just be sure to use the star washer with the nut. Truly a nice build 👍
Thanks Daniel!
Really nice build Steve, that box looks Sweet!
That's high praise coming from the master builder! I'll take it!
Nice Steve. In electrical boxes, I'd also add some silicone before installing the fitting, especially if cable glands were on the top or on the side of a metebox.
Electricities don't like water. Lol⚡️
Exactly!
I use petroleum jelly, but the concept is the same.
Silicone RTV is what we use. The black colored RTV. Not sure whats the brand name but it hardens like a thick rubber
@@danielkramarsky5858 nice, I must see if we can get that here.👍
Might the right size of O ring be available?
Nice build! Wonder how long the battery will last in -6f? (-21C). BRRRRRRR
I guess long enough for me to clear off the snow and get the solar connected!
Well done!
Thanks!
A mountain of snow is a *kind* of heat dissipation device.
Or insulator! Tunnel in or sit on top. Very useful!
Eyeball once, Drill twice; nice ;) - Looks awesome btw! really enjoying the content recently.
Awesome, thank you!
Wood Working! Now you're speaking my language nice job pal.
Easiest way I could think of to test out the hole sizes.
How about instead of using coax between the dongles and the antennas, you connect the dongles directly to the passthrough SMA with an adapter and then use USB extension cables to connect the dongles to the computer? That way, you will minimize signal losses in the connections and cables.
That's a good idea.
I was cringing when I saw the length of antenna cables coiled up in there. Hopefully he found shorter cables, or went with your idea @JohnTarbox. Aside from that, nice build Steve. 73.
Drill, baby, drill!
UBet!
Those wires would drive me nuts if I didn't zip tie them or something. Loose bundles irk me.
Totally agree, I need to get shorter wires. Still building/making progress!
The nano vna sma cables are a good length if u can buy them Steve
great idea!
Ya, it's nice, but can you fry an egg with it ?
Not in this weather!
And Whats in the Box? Did I miss that?
Hey Chris! This is my ADSB go-box kiosk. There is a whole playlist here: czcams.com/play/PL01YuCls6edaySf2CRljj8lc4YqhSXmUL.html
Great idea! Stay warm, it looks very cold there. KO4HPC 73
Its going to be warmer tomorrow... then more snow.
-6 degrees isn't enough to dissipate the heat? 😂🥶
It is today!
-6F? Absolutely balmy!
Stayin inside by the fire!
What is it for?
Its for tracking planes overhead. There are a couple of videos in the series so far. czcams.com/video/-gQZh-Hurtc/video.html
