@Fuquet Foolish. Many think of antennas as an afterthought instead of properly as a key system component.

@BuildBoost I think they also rely on the rx/tx doing most of the work and yeah almost nobody seems to care about optimization these days, people getting sloppy ...

@BuildBoost It’s RF, there are like 3 people who understand it. And from what I can tell, it looks like one of them is in Isreal, one is in Ukraine, and one works at SpaceX.

@HB9VQQ Better antennas and more height whenever possible

Investing in better antennas is often easier (and cheaper) than investing in Amplifiers... That's why I always run barefoot 100W max. 73

@HeyDanitsme It's a useful resource but it rarely works for concentrated high loads. Maintenance gets much more complicated and tends to reduce lifespan of roofs anywhere that gets any rain. Good resource as a supplemental, sure.

@BuildBoost In South Australia, we get ~22% of our generation from rooftops. In Western Australia it's ~20%. If we really wanted to, we could meet all electricity demand from rooftops, so no need for land for solar.

Well first off you need 4MW of solar panels plus battery storage, assuming youre running ops outside of peak solar availability, so youve already blown the gas turbine budget. Oh and also you need at least 20 acres of land for the solar farm vs < 1/10th acre for the turbine Why indeed would anyone want a turbine
BladeoftheSun@BladeoftheS

That's nice, but a 1MW Gas Turbine costs $3m and needs fuel. 1MW of Solar Panels costs $0.8m and doesn't need fuel. Why would you want something 4x more expensive that also needs fuel?

@Elliott_EcomMfg For some reason I thought 25% utilization was reasonable but maybe that's just socal or im remembering wrong But yeah its not even close to the turbine lol

@BuildBoost if you want 24hrs you need 5-6x solar and then 4-5x batteries compared to solar hit 1MW continuous. not accounting for cloudy days

@BuildBoost Allowing intermittent energy sources to be rated by max output has done a number on people's brains.

I stand with @Teamsters. We do not have planes without pilots. We need drivers on trucks for safety, edge cases, and inclement weather. AI should be for the people, not just billionaires. I will continue to fight for legislation to stand up for truck drivers that was vetoed.
Teamsters California@TeamstersCA

Yesterday, the California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) made a rushed and reckless decision to change the rules and open the door to 80,000-pound driverless trucks to operate on California roads. bit.ly/4tL3qZc
