“INTERVIDENIE” IN THE VILLAGE

More rapidly advancing digital satellite TV, coming to replace the bulky radioligand lines. The population of our vast country, even in its most distant corners, appeared a real possibility of a wide choice of television channels with excellent quality of image and sound. Therefore, a great demand began to use satellite receivers with antennas in the form of “saucers.” Installation of reception of the electronic equipment does not cause trouble, but with the installation of the antenna sometimes there are difficulties: for example, in the zones of “shade” trees, high buildings, etc. In some cases, the reception of the satellite TV signal even becomes impossible. There is a need to install antennas as high as possible to get out of the “shadows.”

WARM “TABLE”

WARM Adjusting the temperature of the local heating using the original heating element. The idea of local heating of a small area is implemented with the help of available details that it will probably in the reserves prudent owner, including, of course, owned and hams. Moreover, as the heating element applied to ordinary fixed resistor with a power dissipation of 2 watts. Depending on the power and resistance of the constant resistor can be achieved heating limited site to a temperature of -40 °C or even 60 °C.

INSTEAD OF BATTERIES

INSTEAD OF BATTERIESThis miniature power pack sits in the battery compartment handheld radios, calculators and other miniature electronic equipment where they need to be connected to AC power. After capacitor C1, Zener diode V1 and V2 (see diagram) we obtain the rectified current voltage of 15 V. It is used to supply voltage to the transistor V4. During the negative half-wave current of the diode V3 returns to the power supply portion stored in the power transformer.

“ELECTROMAN” FOR RATS

Many people keep different Pets, communication with which brings a lot of pleasant moments for both children and adults. However, there are those animals, which are also constantly live with the man and often visited his home (for example, mice, rats). But they are uninvited guests and even harmful, as they are considered (and probably not without reason), carriers of different pathogens of dangerous infections.

SPARK DRILL SHARPENING

SPARK DRILL SHARPENINGWhen performing electrical work have to drill a very large number of holes in the walls and partitions. In a brick or prefabricated houses not to dispense with carbide drills. However, such a tool is not enough for a long time: the working edges of the drill bits become dull and crumble and need to be sharpened. This is typically done using special “green” wheels, but they are expensive and wear out quickly. Faced with this problem, I started looking for alternative technology and stopped at electroerosion grinding devices.
