The steel-and-aluminum shape of the great, steerable dish antenna, designed for modern astronomy, was silhouetted against the sky. Rick was excited. He enjoyed new sights and experiences more than most people, and here, within sight of each other, were unique objects of almost equal interest, but entirely different.
But somehow the two did not conflict, probably because the Egyptians had been wise in their choice of architecture. "Maybe we'd better burn some incense and do a chant or two," Rick suggested. "How's this? Oh, Osiris, son of Isis, please get the bugs out of our antenna." "That's no fit chant," Scotty objected. "A chant should rhyme, shouldn't it?"
The antenna might be needed for fringe-area television or, on the other hand, it might be a communications antenna, as Scotty had said. "Looks interesting," Steve said. The creek flowed only a little distance past the mansion before it became so narrow that Orvil Harris had to turn for the trip downstream.
The experimenters realized that future success lay in making the ether carry telephonic currents as it carried telegraphic currents. They succeeded in establishing communication without wires, using the same antenna as in wireless telegraphy, and the principles determined are those used in the wireless telephone of to-day.
Symbols may thus become eloquent, vivid, important, being endowed with both poetic grandeur and practical truth. The facts from which this truth is borrowed, if they were rehearsed unimaginatively, in their own flat infinity, would be far from arousing the same emotions. The human eye sees in perspective; its glory would vanish were it reduced to a crawling, exploring antenna.
Soames swung after him. Together, they set up the device which was a time-transposition unit, with its complicated small antenna aimed out at the waters of the reservoir. "I've gambled," said Soames, "that we understand each other. Now you pull the string." There was a cord which would discharge the strobe-packs through the apparatus itself. The discharge would cease with absolute abruptness.
The antennae are long, delicate and threadlike, and must be broken very easily in the flight of the moth. It is nothing unusual to see them with one antenna shorter than the other, half, or entirely gone; and a perfect specimen with both antennae, and all the haif on its shoulders, is rare.
At each radar site we proposed that a long focal-length camera be synchronized to the turning radar antenna, so that any time the operator saw a target he could press a button and photograph the portion of the sky exactly where the radar said a UFO was located. These cameras would actually be astronomical telescopes, so that even the smallest light or object could be photographed.
An outstanding antenna system designed by Rex G4JUJ for Phase III amateur satellite communication. The up-link section comprises four 88-element Jaybeam multi-beams which provide a power gain of 225.
At length he tossed the loosened folds of his toga in the air; in reply to the signal, over the aplustre, or fan-like fixture at the stern of the vessel, a scarlet flag was displayed; while several sailors appeared upon the bulwarks, and swung themselves hand over hand up the ropes to the antenna, or yard, and furled the sail.
