What is Big Wilson doing. He was a DJ out of Cleveland Ohio around 1956-1958 on KYW radio?
Went to NY and then Miami, died in 1989: http://www.nytimes.com/1989/10/07/obituaries/big-wilson-dies-at-65-ex-nbc-disk-jockey.html
That my friend is the wonderful SECURITY system of GM, that little bump on your key has a resistor in it, when you put it in, if the security system doesnt read the proper value, due to various conditions -- worn contacts, dirty contacts, etc. This causes everything to work, except it will disable the starter and the fuel pump..neeto huh. To test if its this is the case simply put the key in, try to start it and then remove the key, if you see a SECURITY light on the dash lit up after you remove the key, then that is the problem.. it will wait 3 minutes before the light goes out and you can try again. The cheep fix for this is to buy a remote start kit from Kragen, as it simulates the resistor that is in your key -- they go for 24-40 bucks, lot cheaper than going to a dealer to have it fixed, or taking your steering column apart ...

What is over the horizon communication?
Most communications are conducted via electromagnetic radiation. This isn't universally true; there are submarine-to-ship comm systems that use high-frequency sound waves, but this is generally true. At lower frequencies, electromagnetic waves can be "ducted" around the curve of the Earth by being reflected from the ionosphere, or refracted by several atmospheric layers, providing over-the-horizon radio signals that follow the curvature of the Earth. Commercial AM radio and the paradoxically named "high frequency" amateur radio fall into this category.
Higher frequencies - above about 50 MHz - generally are line-of-sight. The signals do not follow the curve of the Earth, and don't reflect off the ionosphere; the signals travel straight off into space. Commercial television in the VHF range starts at about 54MHz, and commercial "FM" radio starts at about 87MHz; these signals are only receivable if you have a straight shot to the transmitter.
We can communicate "over the horizon" by using repeaters; stations that receive on one frequency and broadcast the same signal - "repeating" it - at a different frequency. Many repeaters are positioned on high towers, high buildings, or high mountains to provide broad area coverage.
But if you could put your repeater in space - at a 23,000 mile synchronous orbit - you could receive the signal in about 40% of the Earth's surface at once. Science writer and SF author Arthur C. Clarke proposed a scheme in which three such satellites, located 120 degrees apart around the globe, could provide coverage of nearly the entire world outside of the polar regions. (You can thank Clarke's shortsightedness for the low cost of your satellite TV service; it didn't occur to Clarke to patent the idea, and since it had been published openly, nobody else could patent it either!)
How do you remove the radio from a 1995 Voyager?
You need to buy a special U shaped tool from parts store or radio store, slide points in sides of radio till they snap in and gently pull out.
Real AnswerWrong answer! That's how to remove a Ford Radio. On a 1995 Voyager, its a complicated but fairly easy process (if there can be such a thing).First, remove the trim piece which runs the width of the car between the windshield and the top of the dashboard. It's pressure-fit in place, and can be popped up with a screwdriver.
Next, remove the trim piece in front of the "idiot light" console on top of the dashboard. Again, it'll pop up with a screwdriver.
Then, remove the "idiot light" console. It's held in place by several Phillips screws, and is connected via a wiring harness on the bottom. Disconnect the wiring harness, but don't drop it down inside the dash.
Next, remove the instrument panel cluster, which is held in place by more Phillips screws both on top and on the bottom (check the side by the driver's door as well, I think there are 2 screws towards that too). You'll also have to pull off the trim around the center console with the AC vents as well to access all the screws for the instrument panel cluster, it just pops off. Then you should just be able to move the instrument panel cluster out of your way to reach the radio mounting screws without actually removing it from the vehicle or disconnecting anything.
The radio itself is held in with two bolts, remove them and it'll slide out. The wiring harnesses and antenna can be removed from the back of the radio.

There are many different kinds of radios. Here is a sampling:
-- If it runs on batteries and fits in your pocket, it uses something like 0.00009 KW.
-- If it's like a boom-box, runs on batteries and you carry it on your shoulder, then it uses maybe like 0.001 KW.
-- If it plugs into the wall, sits beside your bed, and has a clock and CD player in it, then it uses maybe like 0.005 KW.
-- If it takes up half of a wall in your living room, plays AM, FM, weather alerts and TV audio, and the speakers for it
take up the rest of the wall, then it uses maybe 0.3 KW.
Why is AM radio only talk and news?
AM (amplitude Modulation) radio is generally dominated by talk and news, though there are some music stations in most markets (mostly country, classical, and standards - what are generally referred to as "oldies"). Before the dominance of FM (frequency modulation) radio as a music medium, AM radio carried all kinds of programming: news, talk, music, etc. FM was set up as a stereo medium, and broadcasts in a cleaner manner (i.e., less interference and static), which makes it a preferable music carrier. Previously FM used its superior audio quality to cater to the audiophile, presenting more long-form or "album oriented" programming, while AM concentrated on the singles (especially Top 40 pop). As FM radios became more common, more people wanted to hear their music with clearer sound, and migrated to FM, where more stations changed to singles play to accommodate the new audiences. Eventually, with pop music audiences drifting away, AM stations changed their formats to capitalize on their strength: namely, longer range. People who listened to AM were frequently travelling, and needed to find stations with longer range, so they could hear them while driving between cities (such as truck drivers) and other in-car audiences. This allowed the AM stations to build audiences with talk radio and news, as voices don't need to be in hi fidelity or in stereo, and (less frequently) country or classical music, or standards, which retained audiences with older people who still preferred their older AM consoles (and AM stations could make due with the smaller, but more loyal audience share), and professional drivers such as long-haul truck drivers, who could listen for longer stretches before falling out of signal range (or without losing signal at all).
Meaning of aircraft radio failure?
An aircraft have avionics computers and equipment and radios that help the pilot fly the aircraft. A "failure" of a system or one of the computers means there was something that went wrong with the computer or in this case the radio. Sometimes there is an internal failure within the box caused by a problem with a computer chip or a short in a wire or a failure of a power source.
Most passenger aircraft have 2 or more radios for communications. Aircraft may also have 2 or more radios that are used for navigation by receiving signals.
In modern aircraft, the avionics computers have a trouble-shooting diagnostics. If the computer detects a problem, it will send or display a warning to the pilot in the form of a simple message displayed on his Monitor. This message is called a "Fault". The computer records a code number of this fault, called a "fault code", that will allow the ground maintenance personel to know what could be the source of the problem.

What is the role of a diode in an am radio?
Whenever a signal with components at several different frequencies flows through a diode,
the diode causes "mixing" among the frequencies ... for every pair of frequencies in the original
signal, two new frequency components are created: one at the sum of the original two, and one
at their difference. That is, if the original signal's wave has frequencies 'A' and 'B' in it, and it's
passed through a diode, then the output wave will have four frequencies in it: A, B, A+B, and A-B.
The original signal that enters an AM radio is the one that comes down from the antenna. If it's
an AM radio signal, then it consists of three frequencies: Carrier, Carrier+music, and Carrier-music.
There are 3 pairs of frequencies in this set. For each pair, the diode creates new signal components,
at the sum and difference of the original 2 frequencies. So with 3 different frequencies before the
diode, we have all of the following frequencies coming out after the diode:
1). Carrier
2). Carrier+music
3). (Carrier) + (Carrier+music)
4). (Carrier) - (Carrier+music)
5). Carrier
6). Carrier-music
7). (Carrier) + (Carrier-music)
8). (Carrier) - (Carrier-music)
9). Carrier+music
10). Carrier-music
11). (Carrier+music) + (Carrier-music)
12). (Carrier+music) - (Carrier-music)
To see what we've got now, let's go through the list and simplify the expressions:
1). Carrier
2). Carrier+music
3). 2xCarrier + music
4). -music
5). Carrier
6). Carrier-music
7). 2 x Carrier - music
8). music
9). Carrier+music
10). Carrier-music
11). 2 x Carrier
12). 2 x music
Looking through the list, we see that 9 of the 12 products are up around the frequency of the
radio carrier. It's easy to filter them out and throw them away, leaving only the following
three component signal frequencies, in the audio range:
4). -music
8). music
12). 2 x music
Mathematically, positive and negative frequencies are the same signal, so components #4 and #8
can be added to produce a component with double the amplitude (volume) of either one, which
only leaves the component at double the frequency of the music. It's in the range of legitimate
music frequencies, so we can't get rid of it completely. But it's weak to begin with, when it comes
out of the diode, and it's competing with the double-amplitude component at the real-music-frequency,
so it doesn't trash the desired signal too severely. What we're left with is the components
equal to the frequencies in the original music program, with some unavoidable distortion
on account of the presence of the low-level second harmonic.
The purpose of the diode was to perform the mixing of frequencies, so that we could separate
them by filtering, discard the ones that were used only to transport the music to us through
space, and keep the ones we want to send to the speaker or earphones.
When were the first radio control planes made?
The first radio control planes were made in the late nineteenth century where they were flown as a musical hall act around the auditorium for the customers during the show.
Do all cb radios have to be pluged into a car?
No. Some carry batteries internally (handhelds), and some are wired for 120v power (base stations).
What age range is the Radio Flyer Wagon suitable for?

What are the benefits of radio waves?
Some benefits of radio waves are: You can use many devices such as tv's,cell phone's and radio's without a cord, they can send signals easily to your device and they have the longest wavelength among the electromagnetic spectrum.
What is the estimated net worth of Rush Limbaugh?
No one knows for sure, as Rush Limbaugh is not tied to a public company, and thus does not have to publish figures. This said, however, press releases and insider sources have been able to change a guess to "educated guess". Known revenue includes:
- $285 million salary and bonus for 2001 through 2008 ($35m bonus, salary of approximately $31.25m/year)
- $400 million salary and bonus from 2009 through 2016 ($100m plus bonus - the exact figure was not disclosed, except for "nine digit bonus" - and $38m/year salary)
So through his salary itself, he has earned $285 million for current work, $400 million for future. And that only covers back to 2001. Rush has been on the air since 1988. While he certainly earned less in his early days, it can be assumed his salary was significant. Additionally, it is rumored that he receives a share of advertising revenue, which would be quite large, considering his 20 million listeners each week.
Thus, in conclusion, Rush Limbaugh is close to, or just over the billionaire net worth mark. With at least $685 million, and advertising revenue joined with previous contracts which must be in the hundreds-of-millions range, Rush can be assumed an essential billionaire.

How do you fix a radio in a 1999 VW Beetle that quit working after the car was jumped started?
You must turn off the radio before disconnecting the battery or applying a jump-start, to protect the logic circuits. You did not, so now you must replace the radio.
--supplement from Kadanis --
Based on this post I thought my radio was dead after disconnecting the battery. The radio did not even come on in safe mode. However, I pulled it out (using nail files instead of the official removal hooks) and found that the 10 v fuse at the back of the radio needed to be replace. Once done, it came right back on and I had no problem.
One note, however, it is very hard to put the radio back in. The cables have to be pushed way back down behind the consol in order to create enough room to push the radio in the last 1/2 inch. I couldn't do it myself and had to get someone with one of those long grabbing gadgets to reach in from behind and pull the cables down. It was tough. Maybe someone with more experience can suggest a better solution for that problem.
dear fellow vw owners if you have a problem with your radio safe mode function and not sure how to ( example 2000 beetle )program your radio please follow this advise (decoding the radio)
The radio should be decoded when the vehicle is taken into the workshop and it has to be decoded if you sell your vehicle.
- Switch on the coded radio.
- Push and hold AM/FM BAND SELECTOR and then push and hold the SCAN BUTTON.
Continue to hold the AM/FM BAND and SCAN BUTTONS until the display changes to 1000 and then goes blank.
- After the display goes blank, release the AM/FM BAND SELECTOR and SCAN BUTTONS
- Finally, push and hold the AM/FM BAND SELECTOR and then push and hold the
SCAN BUTTON until the word "Code" is displayed. After releasing the buttons, the radio statin frequency is displayed. The code has now been erased and the radio is no longer theft protected. any further help you can go to this site http://www.nwlink.com/~vdb/vw/Electrical/Coding_Radios just copy and paste into address bar im a mechanic myself and any help is much appreciated
How do you get the code for the radio in a CRV?
I have a 1998 Honda CRV. Under the Hood of the Car is a Fuse-Box. (Different Fuse-Box than Inside the Car) This Fuse-Box has a Lid. Under this Lid is the Radio Code. Therefore, lift the Lid off Completely and the Code is underside of this Lid. Good Luck!
You Got Lucky... Most radio stickers are installed by the PDI Tech. and are not put in the same place. If you can't find your code or code card your will need to remove the radio write down the serial number and take it to your dealer to get the unlock code.
Mine was inside the lid of the interior fuse box.
I got a tip from a dealer service person that if you turn on the ignition, then hold down the 1 and 6 buttons, then turn on the power to the radio, you may get the passcode displayed. This didn't work for me and I tried disconnecting the battery to clear an error msg. on the radio. Maybe you have to hold down 1 and 6, THEN turn on the ignition and THEN turn on power to radio. I have a 2000 CRV.
The code for my Honda CRV was in the glove box (a sticker inside)
