A Mobile Antenna Base with Internal Capacitive Matching

admin — Wed, 28 Jul 2010 11:46:11 +0000

Do you have a mobile antenna for that new car but don’t want to drill any holes? Here’s a great solution that adds the convenience of antenna matching built right into the mount. For years I’ve tinkered with electronic projects at home. Two things have started to impact the fun: a harder time focusing up close (since I turned 50) and the fact that parts are getting smaller. One way around this is to concentrate on physically larger projects—like antennas and related items. I needed a simple antenna mount that could easily attach to my new Volkswagen Beetle without drilling holes. I wanted this antenna mount to support most mobile HF antennas, especially a Hamstick or Carolina Bug Catcher, since these are my current antennas. Additionally, I wanted the mount to include internal capacitive matching which is normally required for short antennas.

1998 - 2005 Volkswagen New Bettle Throttle valve control module, checking

admin — Wed, 28 Jul 2010 11:44:38 +0000

If the complete throttle valve control module is current-less (e.g. connector disconnected) the throttle valve moves into a particular, specified mechanical position, which signals an increased idle speed with an engine at operating temperature. If only the Throttle Position (TP) actuator -V60- is current-less, the throttle valve also moves into the specified mechanical position (emergency running gap), however, since Closed Throttle Position (CTP) switch -F60- can still be recognized, an “almost normal” is reached via the respective ignition angle retardation. If the Engine Control Module (ECM) detects a malfunction at Throttle Position (TP) sensor -G69-, Throttle Position (TP) actuator -V60- is switched current-less by the Engine Control Module (ECM) and the throttle valve moves into the specified mechanical position (emergency running gap) again.

VW New Beetle GLS Convertible Complete Report

admin — Wed, 28 Jul 2010 11:32:53 +0000

VW captured major attention and significant sales when it brought out its New Beetle in 1998. As the Bug’s popularity
began to flag, new versions such as the Turbo S were unveiled. But what could generate renewed interest more than a
convertible model? When the droptop Bug hit the streets in 2002, heads were turning and wallets were being reached for
once again. The Beetle convertible comes in GL and GLS trim levels. As with other VWs, the GLX model has been
discontinued for 2004. The GL and GLS can be equipped with a 115-hp, 2.0-liter four-cylinder or a 150-hp, 1.8-liter
turbocharged inline four. A five-speed manual transmission is standard, and a six-speed automatic is optional. New color
combinations are added for 2004-along with new wheels-and a Monsoon audio system is now standard on the GLS. The
power top comes down in 13 seconds.
