The spark gap transmitter was one of the very first forms of radio transmitter. It was the form of transmitter used by Heinrich Hertz when he confirmed the existence of electromagnetic waves. Such a spark gap generates a very broadband spectrum and is therefore suitable as an antique broadband jamming device. However, it is very ineffective because the spark causes a short circuit and very little energy is converted into electromagnetic waves. Nowadays, there are much better ways of generating broadband jamming in electronics.

The Navy was caught releasing tons of chaff at sea.

@@looseygoosey1349 My friend was on a ship and they unloaded all the old ammunition just firing it into the ocean he said it was the only thing he liked about the navy.

Your comment has no use in this thread.

@@hambonesmithsonian8085 this wouldn't be considered a thread it is a comment which people are allowed to make. But your reply has no use under my comment. 😆

Agreed - I'm at 2 minutes and it's already hard to continue listening, even though I'm interested. You could also speak in German and add English subtitles - you'd cover two audiences! Note to others: try increasing the playback speed to 1.25.

Yes, you could... but most of those who make such comments are too lazy to do so.

In an impressively bad way, unfortunately. Ze wörst Dschörman akzept wuld be preferable ;-)

who here actually has something to do with system intelligence

Who wants to know?

I’m here solely for educational purposes only!

I ain't me but you never know when you suddenly find yourself in a situation where you need it

Here we talk about flat moon instead. Do not be distracted.

@@shadmansudipto7287 I worked topography ,i have 10 proofs on the flat earth. 1- the horizontallity of contourn line.

are u flat?? if not dm me

I wish the earth was flat. One single radar, powerful enough and we could monitor the whole pizza!

Correction: I also began to have doubts because the radiation losses of the cathode alone should be larger. And in comparison with a normal incandescent lamp... I searched for data sheets: frank.pocnet.net/sheets/190/y/YH1040.pdf Conclusion: Yes, you are right!

And TWTA as "Tweet-ah" or "Twee-tah".

I agree. I spent 5 years working with TWT's at Microwave Electronics Corp. in the 70's and we never called them twits. That phrase was reserved for human dimwits. We would have been fired for using that term. Sorry, can't watch this past the first 45 seconds

@@tomlevenhagen I worked with them in the early 2000s. Glad to know they weren’t called “twits” in the ‘70s, either. I never learned the engineering of them, just how to replace them, so I went down the YouRube rabbit hole to see if I could learn something. Not from this one.

@@TheRealMake-Make I"m very glad they didn't become known as twits. I was just a 20 year old tech back then, but had the privilege of working with one of the co-inventors of the TWT. We all had to have secret clearances because the military was buying them as fast as we could make them. They were being used in air craft electronic counter measure systems. Pretty exciting stuff for a kid :)

it's not a person speaking lol

Das ist bereits in Vorbereitung, dauert nur noch ein paar Tage. :-)

In den meisten Fällen ist das ein sehr starker Permanentmagnet. Zum Beispiel hier gut zu sehen: www.radartutorial.eu/19.kartei/10.weather/pic/img10-026-04.jpg Bei manchen Röhren ist er sogar fest mit der Röhre verbunden und kann nur gemeinsam mit dem Magnetron gewechselt werden. Es gibt aber auch vor allem ältere Röhren, bei denen der Magnet als eigenständiges Bauteil eingesetzt ist. Hier in diesem interaktiven Bild eines Senders kann der Mauszeiger auf den einzelnen Baugruppen den Namen der Baugruppe aufrufen. www.radartutorial.eu/08.transmitters/Radarsender.de.html

@@christianwolff8053 Vielen Dank! Bis zu deinem Video wusste ich nicht dass ein Magnetfeld involviert ist, sogar nötig ist damit es so schön "durchdreht" und eine Resonanz entsteht. Und wenn du mir nicht gesagt hättest dass das auch dem Bild drumherum Magneten sind hätte ich es für normales Metall gehalten - ähnlich wie bei Transformatoren.
