to
remain
unidentified, predicted
today
that
the recent
spectacular
successes in
the
United
States
space program
may result
in more
efficient
high-
frequency receivers and
trans-
mitters.
He points
out that the losses in
their
coils largely determine
the
efficiency
of
high- frequency
tuned
circuits and that the
most
efficient coil is
of the space
-wound
type.
He has,
therefore, proposed
that the
astronauts
in the
next space shot spend
their
spare time in winding
coils for critical
applications.
After volunteering to join the
program for this
purpose, our informant
is
presently
undergoing
an
intensive
series of
tests.
Rochester, April
2. The Rochester Ama-
teur
Radio Association's RaRa
Rag
reports
that the December,
1968
"Pennython"
of
Eddie Meath,
WHEC radio personality, col-
lected
112,757 pennies in cooperation
with
the Rochester Amateur Radio
Association.
When a WHEC listener
called Eddie
with a
pledge, he and other
club members
verified
the address
and sent the information
by
closed- circuit teletype
to the amateur
con-
trol
station,
WB2MAC. From there, the ra-
dio-
equipped cars of the club
members were
dispatched
to pick up the pledges.
Approxi-
mately
67
amateurs
and their families
par-
ticipated
in
the operation,
making 208 col-
lections and travelling
1500 miles in
doing
so. The money raised
was used to buy
toys
for the needy children
of Rochester.
Million
Dollar
Ham /TVI
Lawsuit.
One of
the most
unusual
lawsuits
involving
ham
radio is taking place in Sarasota,
Fla. Sev-
eral months ago,
Ansel "Grid"
Gridley,
W4GJO, was sued
by
his
neighbor -claiming
$1,000,000 damages -for
alleged interference
to TV reception.
April,
1969
Richard
M. Tavan, K3QDD, receives
the
John W. Gore
Memorial Scholar-
ship from Rosel H.
Hyde, Chairman
of
the FCC. The
scholarship,
of-
fered by the Foundation for Amateur
Radio, Inc., Washington,
D.C. is
presented
for excellence
of activi-
ties as an amateur operator
and
high
scholastic
standing. Tavan
is in
his
third year
at
Massachusetts Insti-
tute
of Technology,
majoring
in
Electronics Engineering. Looking
on
is J. F. DeBardeleben, W4TE, Past
President
of the Foundation, which
is supported by 21 clubs in
area.
The suit
was
filed regardless of the ef-
forts of the FCC,
Sarasota
Amateur Radio
Association
and Grid
to resolve the prob-
lem.
W4GJO
is world- renowned for his in-
terest in
UHF
-VHF propagation and the
equipment
in
Grid's
ham shack
meets or
surpasses
all FCC Standards for interference
suppression. However, his neighbor has re-
fused to permit any device or filter to be
connected to his TV
receiver to increase
the
receiver's ability to reject radio signals
out-
side the TV channels.
The plaintiff in the lawsuit has
also used
paid advertisements
to literally "damn"
the
existence of
radio
hams. This was
in
addi-
tion to
other
more tangible
harassments.
When served with a
restraining order
and
injunction,
the plaintiff allegedly threatened
Grid's
life.
The eventual outcome
of
this lawsuit may
have long- standing effects not only on
hams
but on
CB'ers
and
anyone else using
ra-
dio transmitting equipment.
Should
the
court find
in favor
of
the plaintiff, it
would
enable any TV viewer to decide when
and
how a transmitter might
be
used.
This lawsuit has cost money
to defend
and donations are
being
solicited by the
Sarasota Amateur Radio Association,
P.O.
Box 3326,
Sarasota, Fla.
33578. Any con-
tribution will be
appreciated.
We will
keep
you
informed
of developments.
