Coil wizards is program to find the number of turns/inductance of any coil wound on torriod core or balun core or IFT core, air core. It has got a database of all AL values of standard torriod cores so you need not to know the AL value of torriod that you want to use you can just find the turns by knowing the torriod core number (ex:T-50-2). Useful for home made coil construction for Electronic hobbyists and Hams.

quiz yourself on your weak areas, or set yourself a mock exam. The FCC
Question Pools are updated each year. Ham University provides you with
three ways to learn Morse code. First there are formal lessons which
introduce the code one letter at a time. Then there are exercises -- a
set of typical transmissions to practice on (you set the speed). And
finally there is Pentode - This highly motivating game (inspired by
Tetris) makes mastering the code effortless.

RFP

Summary: Free Radio Propagation & Diffraction calc 1.03

Author: Colin Seymour
Email: cseymour@crl.co.uk
Homepage: http://www.crl.co.uk/
Download: rfp103.zip (Jun 22 1998, 82.6K)
Description:
This is a radio frequency propagation calculator for the transmission
path between an RF transmitter and a receiver. It is aimed mainly at
short range radio applications, such as in-building LAN and
point-to-point links up to a few km where there is a direct line-of-sight
or a simple diffraction profile, or a modified range law model, but it
can also support calculations for satellite, aeronautical and space
communications where the line-of-sight model can be applied. It is
useful to both ham operators and radio professionals.

The knife-edge diffraction calculation option allows the effects of a
hill or other obstruction to be taken into account. Loss factors can be
included, e.g. building penetration loss.

Maximum range and path budget margin are rapidly calculated and viewed
while modifying the input parameters conveniently using the main graphic
window. The parameters are displayed against a bitmap of radio stations
and a hill to visually aid entry of the various parameters. A text-mode
window can be opened up to list the results, with additional information,
and then output to an Ascii file. A built-in help file includes
information about the various parameters and calculated results and
includes further information about changes in this version.
