Hey,
The Overcomer Ministry has a short wave radio spot. I have listened to him and his pretence of being able to read Biblical Greek - entertaining if it wasn't so scary.

: Hey, The Overcomer Ministry has a short wave radio spot. I have listened to him and his pretence of being able to read Biblical Greek - entertaining if it wasn't so scary. Rev Stair had a dream of owning his own pirate radio station aboard a retired Canadian offshore fishing vessel. His captain for the project was an American who lives in St Kitts/Nevis, who is a ham radio operator I met on the local 2 meter VHF repeater when he brought the boat to a local boatyard to install the 70KW HF/MF broadcast transmitter into the old fish hold directly under its main hatch. The boat was old, but quite large. Two 100KW diesel gensets were welded to the main deck fore and aft to power it. Extra diesel tanks were installed every place they would fit to power it between trips to port for fuel. It drank lots of diesel at full power. The transmitter was purchased as scrap from Voice Of America. It's picture is he http://hawkins.pair.com/voanc/voanc07.jpg The captain got worried about the motives of the bearded "brothers" from the cult's commune in Canadys, SC, carrying a handgun at all times. He wanted out, as did his elderly engineer, who had formerly helped him install a big FM transmitter into an old sailboat they anchored in international waters off NY City to broadcast pirate radio to NYC from a microwave transmitter ashore at the studio when FCC wouldn't give them a license. (The Navy sank the sailboat after removing them by force.) So, they lit this beast off at Halsey-Cannon Boatyard in the Wando River, SC, tied up about 50' off the Boatyard dock. 70,000 watts of HF power lit every flourescent light at the boatyard, briefly, until the 300,000 volt feedthrough insulator that fed the RF through the hold's hatch cover to the T cage antenna between two big towers welded to the bow/stern exploded...right over my head, by the way. Way too much fun was had. On top of the transmitter in the webpage picture, notice the big insulators coming out the top of the power amp cabinet, 2nd from the right with the big final tubes in it? A copper pipe makeshift balanced feed connected that to the bottom of the feedthrough conductor inside the big insulator. As a souvenir of this fiasco, I kept the part that didn't fully explode, just had a little arc until we got the transmitter shut down. You can see me holding the insulator on my QRZ ham webpage at: http://www.qrz.com/callsign Just put w4csc into the callsign search box top left of the page.... That little black burn mark was caused by excessive ionization of us all inside the hold....We glowed blue for a few minutes! When it broke off, the bolt holding the shaft down the middle of it kept it from being smashed. The top looks like what I'm holding in my hand....it simply exploded into a million pieces to small to save. Noticing the "Big Signal" at the FCC monitoring stations from subsequent test transmissions near 7.4 Mhz, FCC swooped down on the boat with a crane stolen from the contractor Navy shipyard and confiscated all the gear, even the broadcast studio on the main deck. The local paper showed the FCC engineer proudly displaying the contraband, holding a 35 watt Heathkit CW ham transmitter up for the photo op, making him look like a complete idiot to anyone who knew what it was. The captain fled to St Kitts and the old engineer vanished, leaving the brothers and RG Stair holding the bag, so to speak. It wasn't going to happen, anyways. The intensive RF current flowing out of the hull into the salt water was just eating holes into the hull they could not stop. FCC did them a favor and saved lives....(c; The first indication was when the fresh water tank suddenly got all salty, overnight as its hull wall flooded it....not good.... You have to hear Rev Stair in person to see how scary religious zealots really are....if you don't know Ted Armstrong or Jim Jones. Larry -- I must admit glowing blue WAS a lot of fun. It's why I guffaw so hard when someone warns me about cellphone radiation hazards at .15 watts... (c; Too funny. PPS - Don't send emails to the account listed...its bogus. |

This is way off topic of course, but I hate to see Ted Armstrong's name mentioned in the same sentence as this Rev Stair, and Jim Jones. Ted was a lusty SOB, ex-navy, ex-smoker, and got kicked out of the church his dad started for compulsive gambling, excessive partying, and supposedly fornicating with his secretary. He died a few years back, after getting kicked out of the church _he_ started for basically the same reasons. I can still hear his voice coming from the radio: "And greetings friends around the world... This is Garner Ted Armstrong bringing you the plain truth about todays world news and the prophesies of...the world tommorow." Takes me back to the late 1960's and early 1970's. I met him in person a few times back in the mid 70's--entertaining fellow, and not really scary at all. I don't know what happened with him after that. Don W. |
