At first glance, it’s easy to tell Utility and Sport ATV’s apart, and many people will eliminate one class of these quads solely on appearance. However, other than size, there are some important differences between Utility and Sport quads that you might want to take into consideration if you are looking for a new ATV, or the next time you go riding...
ATVs (all-terrain vehicles) were first developed during the 1950s. The earliest models had six wheels instead of the four that riders are now familiar with. Honda was the first company to make the 3-wheel ATV in 1970. These were famously displayed in the James Bond film, 'Diamonds Are Forever.' Originally called the US90, the ATV was purely for fun...
Not all of us can afford a brand new 2007 ATV with all the bells and whistles. As with cars or motorcycles or any large vehicle for recreation or pleasure, we sometimes have to start out with buying second hand. Of course there’s nothing wrong with purchasing a used car, bike or ATV. If you are going to buy used, you have to know what to look for, ...
The ATV trail is a place for dirt, mud, gravel and romance?
Today’s ladies are hardly the proper models of the Victorian Era; in fact, there are plenty of gals out there just itching to ride their four-wheelers with as much gusto as their male counterparts. So if you’re a dude who’s scratching his head for the perfect place to woo your...
The wireless enthusiasts have been again purposing satellite dishes for a couple years now. A dish that big is regularly overkill for most people and current mini-dishes work just as well. The dish helps spotlight the radio waves onto a directional antenna feed. The building of biquad antenna feeds because it offers very good performance and is pre...
Antennas are electronic devices used to transmit and receive radio signals. Antenna is an arrangement of aerial electrical conductors. Heinrich hertz discovered antennas in 1888. For the first time he used the antennas to prove the existence of electromagnetic waves. The antennas convert radio frequency electrical current into an electromagnetic wa...
Antennas are the transmission devices used to transmit audio and visual frequencies in the form of electromagnetic waves. The maximum use of antennas is in radios with special antennas available for satellite radio reception. The antennas are designed according to purpose and accordingly there are exclusive home antennas designed for satellite radi...
Before eternally mounting the antenna for digital television reception it is a good idea to perform a quick view survey to find the spot with the best signal. Moving the antenna one way or another just a few feet can make a wonderful difference in the success of the antenna installation. Digital television is a little different than analog TV. With...
The omni directional antenna is an antenna system that radiates power uniformly in all directions. The only 3 dimensional omni directional antenna is the isotropic antenna, a hypothetical construct derived from actual antenna radiation patterns and used as a suggestion for specifying antenna gain and radio system effective radiated power. Practical...
Television antenna signals are strongest and reception is generally the best when the station's transmitting tower is in clear line of vision with the home receiving the broadcast. Mountains, buildings or trees that block this line of sight tend to weaken and degrade the received signal. The signal also becomes weaker as it travels further from the...
