Why do radio altimeter have 2 antennas where as weather radar have 1?

  • A RADAR altimeter must have 2 antennas (one transmit, one receive) so that it can operate continuously making altitude measurements by matching modulation and carrier phase of received signal with transmitted signal.
  • A weather RADAR needs only 1 antenna because it operates in a pulsed multiplex mode: the antenna is used as a transmitter antenna to send a short pulse of carrier, then is used as a receiver until the last possible reflection from the furthest distance could return. During this time the antenna has rotated only a tiny amount. The transmit/receive multiplex cycle continues as the antenna rotates 360 degrees.
  • A targeting RADAR operates much like the weather radar but it sweeps back and forth over a limited angle instead of in a full 360 degree circle. (e.g. 120 degrees, 90 degrees, 60 degrees, 45 degrees)

Why X-rays can damage organism but radio wave can not?

The X-Ray has more energy than the radio waves, E=hf. The f in X rays is billion times higher than radio waves. Thus X-Rays are a billion times more energy.

Roughly damage can be caused around f=E15 hertz, UV Rays. Radio waves are around f=E12 and X-Rays around f=E18. Radio waves are 1/1000 of the danger level and X-Rays are 1000 times the danger level.

Is ham radio and shortwave the same?

Not necessarily. Normally, Ham Radio is used to describe amateur, 2 way radio where 2 individuals talk to each other back and forth; on the other hand, shortwave radio generally is used to describe commercial High Frequency radio broadcasting. This band is a commercial service that provides long range (worldwide) audiences for broadcasts but is a 1 way media. Think about a local FM radio show that you could listen to anywhere in the world but you can not talk back to them.

What is the maximum range for voice messages when the transmitting range of a sincgars rt-1523 and the radio is mounted in a vehicle with a power amplifier?

The running range of a RT-1523 in manpack mode is about 8KM.

The running range of a RT-1523 in vehicular made using a power amplifier is about 35KM. There is no maximum range due to being able to use other systems as retrans stations.

What part of component of the radio tuner intercepts and collects the radio signal?

That would be the antenna ... before anything ever reaches the components of

the tuner. The purpose of the antenna is to collect an electrical current in the

conductor as the electromagnetic waves fly by it. Once you have that current,

you're ready to extract useful material from it ...

-- selecting the one signal you want from the hundreds that have created a

current in your antenna;

-- sifting the actual radio signal out of all the natural and man-made noises

that also created currents in your antenna;

-- stripping the information (intelligence ??) off of the signal;

-- converting the electrical signal representing the information into a form that

you can observe with your senses ... typically listening to it or viewing it.

I would like to burn music from my radio while im driving to a CD device?

That's a distraction that you don't need or want while driving.

Look at all of the boneheads who cause accidents because they're hanging onto a cell phone or trying to text. In a lot of states it's now illegal to use cell phones while driving, and some of them are starting to ban texting. If you were to cause an accident by taking your eyes off the road to fiddle with a CD burner, you'd probably end up in similar doo-doo.

1985 Mercedes 190e blower motor not working were are additional fuses ect other then in fuse box?

Did you check the little box in front of the fuse box that houses 2 fuses? One of these is responsible for the blower motor, however the motors are prone to failure so you may be in need of a new motor. Try the fuse first! If none of the obvious fuses solve the problem, it's possible your climate control head has been overloaded by a shorted auxilliary circulation pump. The pump is designed to keep water moving through the heater core when the motor is at low rpm's. It's located on the firewall, directly behind the motor. Remove the power cord to take it out of circuit. Now the bad news. Newer versions of the climate control system have an automatic overload protector, and will immediately come back once the pump is disconnected. Older versions have a fuse. Getting to that fuse requires removing the control panel from the dash. The fuse is on the back side of the control unit.

Do microwaves or ultraviolet waves have longer wavelengths?

Microwaves have the longer wavelengths.

Here is a basic electro magnetic spectrum from smallest wavelength to largest:

Gamma Rays: 10-12 to -10 (.000000000001 meters)

X-Rays: 10-10 to -8 (.0000000001 meters)

Ultraviolet: 10-8 to -6 (.00000001 meters)

Visible Light: 10-6 to -5 (.000001 meters)

Infrared: 10-5 to -2 (.00001 meters)

Microwaves: 10-2 to 3 (.001 to 1000 meters)

Radio waves: 103 (1000 meters or more)

How many listeners does ARRL have?

Although it does have extensive radio communication facilities, the ARRL is not

what you'd call a radio 'station', and the number of its 'listeners' is not an

appropriate metric to characterize or describe it.

The American Radio Relay League is a membership association dedicated to the

development, promotion, representation, and advocacy for the amateur ('ham')

radio hobby in the USA and before international telecommunications organizations.

The number of licensed amateur operators in the USA broke 700,000 at the

beginning of 2011.

At the beginning of 2012, the paid membership of the ARRL was about 154,000 .
