20watt Rig I got rid of ages ago.

http://img475.imageshack.us/img475/4843/20watttter0fq.jpg

[djreload]

30w PLL. This was actually a nice rig, NRG 4w PLL retunable driver board, Veronica no tune broadband PA. Sun Power PSU, fan, all boxed up.

http://img456.imageshack.us/img456/9092/30w9xc.jpg

[djreload]

1w PLL I knocked up for fun :)

Although, getting caught by the police with it at half 1 in the morning... Didnt turn out to be much fun.

Microwave linkbox I put together for someone. Stereo, RDS, PSU, Microwave link tx.

http://img456.imageshack.us/img456/2268/vtx21et.jpg

[djreload]

Mono linkbox, limiter, rds, link tx board (microwave).

Was still unfinished though, never actually finished wiring everything up, in the end I just ripped parts out of it for other projects, shame, that would have been a nice linkbox.


http://img451.imageshack.us/img451/4629/reloadbox4px.jpg

[djreload]

Ha, the first thing I ever boxed about, erm, duno, a few years ago. A T*K driver board with a Z** PLL circuit attached to it (left side of the pic). The Driver board was frequency locked with an IC so aparently it was Z** who added the little green board (same circuit as a pira.cz pllz circuit) and that could be used to change the frequency for the main driver board. Was a nice little set up that was, bought that 1w from a very nice man up in the midlands. On the right is a dodgey PSU board that a mate lent me for the project. All of it nicely boxed up in an upturned double CD rack (plastic) and held in place by lots of blue tack (but white) and bits of tape. As soon as that was boxed I was round a mates free house slappin the dipole out of the roof window.

Ahh, Those were the days.

Dont know wot the gain was on it i cant remenber but at the time we (Temptation Fm) was broardcasting on 102.4 in Dagenham(east london) ant there was a station called Galaxy on 102.5 in Peckham (south London) before we was using this we didnt hit North London but wen we switched on using this aerial we cut claen through them and was ******* them up in North. So it done the job !!

[teckniqs]

Heard Mr May had a nervous breakdown and quit a few years ago now.....he used to send people out to nick back rigs he'd sold to stations, I even heard he sold a station the same rig they originally just bought from him before his chav's got it back...........he also used to put a low rating fuse on the PA so it would pop and charge people for a new PA transistor or more!!

I've never had this misfortune but know of it happening, not good!!

[djbungle2k3]

yeah man ,was pretty funny to see the newspaper pic then your pic.
Like you could have had a new headline

"and this be the toerag wot did it." :)


But mateys right though man, be careful, me and my mates were setting up once when a bloke in the top floor flat threw/pushed his wife out the window!! (apparently they were junkies or something) trust me, when we got to the bottom it WAS NOT a pretty site. (teams of police were there by then too and they looked pale and sick, they really didnt care about our business)

Once youve seen a pavement pizza like that it really hits home how totally totally dead you would be if you slipped. I mean theres dead and theres falling from a tower block.. its a lot worse man.

ps I know this is a gallery thread but I think this should be left in for the chappie with the balls of steel. as ur balls will also be proper flat man, its grose. :o kind of like one of those jackson pollock paintings.

[teckniqs]

Close......but was that in relation, caught on camera too?

[missionb]

How about climbing a tree 50 meters high bareback!!:eek:
I will climb almost anything and absailing is piss, not taking anything away from ya Tek still have to ave the balls to make that step over the side of the block, but i would say absailing is easier than climbing if ya have no fear of heights going down is easier than going up lol

[missionb]

Teckniq wot station u from mate ? pm me if ya would rather not say on here !

[teckniqs]

Climbing a tree without any kind of safety is damn right stupid and not worth it, atleast weekend rush/temptation fm both used safety harnesses and took precautions, ok a block might be higher but 50m is still high enough.

I know people who have been setting up on tall trees for the last 10 years but they've always taken safetly precautions. Only a fool wouldn't!!

[shivar]

mission b had a harness on though :p

As I read what you said I firstly thought you may have misread my post and not seen it saying it, lol, anyway nevermind!

[missionb]

i remember that station absailing down a block...has any1got that on video..

ps also after the program that had flarefm and powerjam on it
Yeh i remember that on tv the one with flare fm and power jam it showed them raiding power jams studio at the end and wot about that bloke climbing up on that disused house on the roof nxt thing u hear is all the tiles falling off

[teckniqs]

Ahh the old house in the hospital, what memories!!

[missionb]

This is the typical C&K horn, i spotted this one a few months ago in the mannor, went an got it 2night was shocked it was still there !

[teckniqs]

Thats the new version!! This is the more commonly known typical c & k......

[missionb]

Thats the new version!! This is the more commonly known typical c & k......
I wouldnt agree with u there mate, exactly the one u are showing is the older version, in the 11 years ive been doin radio ive never seen that one but like u said its the older version, Bet they still work as good as the newer ones though. But most pirates of today would recognise the one i pictured as the common c&k horn, or maybe not lol who knows :)

[teckniqs]

Fair enough in your case there then bro, I gotta say myself that they are the first horns I ever saw (the one I pictured) and have had absolutely loadsa them in the past, I've only ever seen a couple like the one in your picture I have had one or two but it does seem mad that you have never seen those horns in 11 years if I've seen hundreds in the past 10, lol.

That horn shown in your picture (personally) I have only seen for like the last 5 years but Im not saying you are wrong!!

Whats the most common horn out of the 2 pictured some other users would say out of both our C n K's, Im interested to see on this tip?

[Rig1]

I've got both those horns right here and I've got to say that, I can't link more than KM with the one Mission has got. I'm not sure if it's faulty or it's just the way it is? As i've only ever had one of these so can't campare! Try linking it up mate and let us now how it performs.....

must b faulty mate at the right voltage and with th right capacitor and resistor these horns will link 6 to 7 miles and with the bigger horn attached to it ie the horn u get with a alpha it will link abit further ! they r probably equally as good though.

[teckniqs]

Yeah I had a horn like yours but it was slightly yellow painted and it linked a good 3 or 4 miles no problem the only difference was the audio was very slighly lower then on the other C n K, but was still loud enough like and worked well so I'd say it must have a prob.

[missionb]

went to help put a station on today an they was using one of them horns you was talking about !

[The Funksta]

Put a big flang on any of the 2 horns and u should be able to link upto 10miles with a clear line of site.

[teckniqs]

yeah and what about with a satalite dish on the horn and on the lnb,

.....whoosh 30miles plus

[missionb]

yeah and what about with a satalite dish on the horn and on the lnb,

.....whoosh 30miles plus
Ive used a dish on the lnb but neva actually tried using a dish on the horn, would that actually make it link further, i would ave touhght once the signal fron the horn hits the dish it would spread it out over a wider area and thus not travelling as far, tell me more about this ?

[The Funksta]

yeah and what about with a satalite dish on the horn and on the lnb,

And the dti can get you much faster useing dish

[teckniqs]

Personally I haven't tried it but I imagine it would work the same effect as it has with the LnB but in reverse effect, I understand it would be 35dB gain thats savage coz thats just at the one end, lol!!

someone posted a picture a while ago on the y2k pirates site with a horn attached to a dish so I have seen its been done and I bet it was nuts!!

[teckniqs]

And the dti can get you much faster useing dish


How do you know this??

[Rig1]

How do you know this??

If anything, it would be harder, becuase it makes it so much more directional! Dish on horn that is!

Thats one thing I did think, also I did take into account though it would make the signal much stronger but also you gotta take it into account if they really want ya they'll get ya!!

[The Funksta]

it makes it so much more directional!


Witch mean its much more eazyer for them to track! it may make it much more eazyer for people to link long distance but it allso gives thgem a helping hand finding ur studio


DIRECTIONAL! = DIRECTING IN 1 PLACE! = THEY KNOW WHERE YOU ARE

[djbungle2k3]

theres nothing like a big flange :eek:

Big flange on the horn , dish catching your microwaves - nice.

I know that you may believe facing the horn at a concave dish would deflect it,
thus acheiving more gerth,(something that bothers us all)
but this is not so, it would simply bring it back to the horn.
As it does with the standard lnb/dish scenario , concave dish catches the microwaves (lively little buggers they are) and channels into a focal point.

This is the same as light on a concave mirror.

So when you are concentrating on your erection , remember that its all about big flanges , dont be thinking about gerth on a dish :D

[djbungle2k3]

if you turned the dish around and then beamed the horn at it, then ud have your gerth

[djbungle2k3]

check here for more details ,it could be that im wrong,
if you use a horn pointed at a dish, the distance of the horn away from the dish would definately determine how well it worked.

someone posted a picture a while ago on the y2k pirates site with a horn attached to a dish so I have seen its been done and I bet it was nuts!!

Do you mean these one's? :)

[teckniqs]

Thats it I think,

What horn is that? I don't recognise it!!

Looking at the picture made me wonder why the dish is strapped to the link box and pointing down towards the ground?

[missionb]

Even though its been done it doesnt mean that it works good, not heard of many people trying it, or seen many pics of it i think there is some more investigating to b done, but the more i think about it the more i think maybe it does work !

[teckniqs]

Even though its been done it doesnt mean that it works good


without sounding rude(im not trying to be) how can you comment if you know nothing about it?

Basically I will tell you the simple reason why you haven't heard of anyone doing it is because firstly no-one hardly even knows you can do it more to the point actually being able to do it.

Its quite a mission by the looks of it, getting it in the right place and all set up but it WILL be ALOT better once set up correctly.

Why don't sky tv just use an LnB without the dish, coz of the massive gain, and it works both ways TX and RX mate. :)

[teckniqs]

Oh yeah mission, you've seen it done before anyway......

Maybe not by a pirate station in this case but by BT........you know them big massive dishes just over the thames in North Woolwich (Im sure ya do) well they transmit and recieve using those massive fu ck off dishes for stupidly sicko amounts of SHF gain!!

[missionb]

I do know about it mate ive used a dish on the lnb before but never on the horn ive seen people use the old metal dustbin lids aswell, but im gonna be doing a long link soon so i may just try it, ive used massive horns b4 on the front of c&k's made it out of them thin metal ceiling tiles worked well.

[teckniqs]

Fair enough, I just thought you might know them dishes as they aren't too far from ya.

Yeah using a big flange is alot easier then a dish but I don't think you can get as much gain as using a dish.

A big flange and a dish........theres an idea.;)

[Signal]

went to help put a station on today an they was using one of them horns you was talking about !

Btw that horn is missing the alignment screw and won't work properly.. just pointing it out ;)

[missionb]

yeh i know mate that wasnt the actual horn they was using, just a spare one they had laying about the missing screw is probably y it was there an not at the studio

....A 100W rig for direct??``...It appears to only have an audio input connector which suggests its not used with a link. And the filtering looks poor on the PA, is that a David Bowman PA??

[Sunrise]

just because it has an audio-in connection doesnt mean its not used with a link.

[teckniqs]

Quite right,

....But I said it suggests it, not means it!! :rolleyes:

:rolleyes: .....It seems you actively make yourself LOOK a cock!!

But I understand as you don't know the first thing about the way a rig works! ;)

[Sunrise]

The general concensus of opinion on here and several other boards is that you are a cock.
If i were you, i'd probably look for a painless way to end it all....

and i know quite a lot about how a rig works.... and as regards you, i find it funny that an idiot would disregarde my experiance.....

Can't you lot have ya pink handbags elsewhere, it's getting very boring now.:D

Ok, OK....lol,

....Might aswell pop something in the old Gallery for contribution sake. ;)


Heres a picture of one of the first blocks I used at Walton in Surrey around 1996/1997, OK its not particularly high but got me out well enough for what I wanted, it was so good going into Slough, even when I tried a small 4 watt from there it was still crystal in Slough, not bad going but the lands very flat around there!!

[teckniqs]

Heres another block about 3 miles to the West, which we really tried hard to get on but failed due to high security on the roof and the top floor partly owned by the police.

....Has anyone actually used it? Its in Addlestone, I'd be interested to hear if anyone managed to get on it before it became impossible.

[TheHat]

ummmm nice block that Addlestone 1, wouldn't have thought the Police would be able to find something that close to them, lol.

You'd hit a fair few miles, nice little double!!

[teckniqs]

....Yeah you know that!! the view from the top floor windows was Kaaaboom and you can see the planes land at Heathrow no problems.

I was told a station used it in the very early 1990's but Im under the impression it still couldn't have been used then too so I am highly interested to find out!! ;)

Yeah it is direct at the moment mate, just while i was testing the rig etc, its a Bowmans yeah.! Are these pretty shit?
I know im only getting about 90w max out of it..

Cool Cool, how comes you didn't get old Dave to sell you some Band 1 bits? ....Its never too late! ;)

....And I wouldn't nessasarily say they are shit, but don't tend to work aswell as many other designs especially where the final power output is concerned.

beleive Face FM used to come off their as did Edge fm both on 99.7 over that last 3 years.

[Dezine]

All so I drove passed it around 3wks ago and it can clearly be seen from the M25. Seemed to be a old stack coming off the phone mast.

Thats more like it tree huginn fm, run by swampi

nah, that's not where they were! No one's been up there since early ninties!

[Dezine]

We are talking about the Addlestone, near Chertsey, Surrey? Jnc 11 on the 25. ??


If so I am telling you they did used that block for at least 2/3 months.

Don't worry about it mate, 90watts aint too bad(for that) as they only do about an average of 100watts anyhow!!

....I wouldn't expect more then 110watts, lol!!

[teckniqs]

oh p.s: whats in there as the driver device into the 1407?
