I work in RF and have to mess around with SMA cables all the time. As a result I carry a 5/16 wrench on my lanyard.

Pretty sure she was just hot dude

Lol it even implies that living on the Western edge of a time zone increases your likelihood of breast cancer. Get the fuck out of here

Holy victim mentality

Honestly looks like a malfunctioning app to me. With propagation effects, the strongest radar returns should naturally be closest to the center of the circle with weaker returns as you go farther out.

In this case you’ve got strongish returns right up to what looks like the edge of the radar’s unambiguous range and basically no returns towards the inside… Which I don’t think represents any real phenomena. Looks more like the app is incorrectly rendering (or not rendering at all) the higher value radar returns, leaving that weird ring. Notice how there are some splotchy lower value returns towards the center though, which would be expected under normal circumstances.

Some antennas have active components (not just preamps) that require some kind of DC voltage to work properly. Pretty common in dedicated GPS antennas. They also have bias ts covering pretty much any band you can think of. Well into the GHz range.
