Welcome

Here are some of my documents that may interest you.

SHORTWAVE RADIO

• Advice to Shortwave Newbies (useful sources of information and useful links)
• Minimal Antennas and Grounds (why they may be all you need)
• So You're Certain You Need an Outdoor Antenna (with a link to a reasonable design)
• Why Antenna Tuners Aren't Necessarily Useful for Shortwave Listening (this article could save you some money)
• A Rambling Review of the Lowe HF-150 (a nice receiver)

BICYCLES

• Mounting and Gluing Tubular Tires (honestly, it's not all that much of a bother)

SOME SITES ON THE WEB

• Useful and/or Interesting Sites I've Found (More than 20 sites I use. Point and click to link to sites where you can get FREE INTERNET SERVICE, FREE LONG-DISTANCE TELEPHONE service, movie schedules (also reviews and film clips) at theaters near you, Bach Central Station, and more)

SOME STUFF ABOUT ME

• How I Got Started in Shortwave (an historical perspective)
• Me and the Usenet News (a philosophical perspective)

• Hana's Suitcase  (This is not about me. It's about what might have become of me, but for my Brooklyn connection. Check out the audio file, it's awsome.)

My home is a little bit outside of Kensington, Maryland USA. Kensington is about five miles north of Maryland's border with Washington, DC.

Nyx.net, this page's host, suggested some other pages, when Nyx generated my initial home page. Since they looked interesting and you (or I) might want to look them sometime, I thought I'd keep some of the links.

NYX' LINKS

• Nyx Home Page
• A Primer on writing HTML documents
• Lynx home page
