Cooling Radio Station was at the UK end of a point-to-point, shortwave signal beamed from Lawrenceville, New Jersey. The site of the station was carefully selected as the antenna, MUSA (Multiple Unit Steerable Antenna), upon which it depended to receive the incoming transmission, had to be: directly aligned with Lawrenceville NJ, USA; two miles long; comprised of an array of 16 individual rhombic antenna; and have an area of three miles in front of the MUSA that would be free from radio interference. The 16 rhombic antenna were strung between 60ft high telegraph poles; each side was 315ft long with internal angles of 140 degrees. The signal from each antenna was sent to the station via a core coaxial cable sheathed in a watertight copper tube and buried in a central trench.

In ham radio, CQ is a call to anyone listening on a particular radio frequency, meaning "I wish to contact any amateur station".
In ham radio, CQ is a call to anyone listening on a particular radio frequency, meaning "I wish to contact any amateur station". When an operator sends "K" or says "Go Ahead" after calling CQ, it's an invitation for any licensed radio station to respond.
Here are some tips for using CQ:
Be enthusiastic: Some say you should call CQ like your life depends on it.
Use directed CQ: You can call CQDX to look for someone in a specific area, such as CQDX Europe.
Use Q-codes: Q-codes are an international shorthand used by radio operators to make communication quicker and easier. For example, you can use the Q-code QRZ to indicate that you're ready for another station.

What is a Transistor? A transistor is a semiconductor device that controls the flow of electrical current between its terminals based on the voltage applied to it. Transistors are used to amplify or switch electronic signals and electrical power.

What is Inductor? An inductor is a passive electrical component that stores energy in the form of a magnetic field when electric current passes through it. It's also known as a coil, choke, or reactor.
