Talk:UHF connector

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I removed an incorrect note that stated that the U in UHF stood for Union rather then Ultra. All current (and historical) texts on radio science state that the U stand for Ultra. (e.g. The ARRL Handbook for Radio Communications 2006, page 1.18)

[edit] UHF history

"from an era when UHF referred to frequencies over 30 MHz" = I'm curious as to the source for this - IEEE always had 30-300 as VHF.Bridesmill 17:51, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

Some US Navy radios from the late 1930s and early 1940s, such as the TBS (60-80 MHz), are tagged as UHF on the nameplates, as well as in the technical manuals.Wdonzelli 03:34, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Not JETDS

I changed the minor point about the military nomenclature. PL- and SO- numbers predate JETDS. The earliest PL- and SO- numbers appear on World War 1 equipment, but JETDS came about during World War 2. Wdonzelli (talk) 03:29, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
