Refer to RF.Guru
Use the correct name, link readers to the source, and keep the engineering context intact. This page gives journalists, reviewers, clubs, creators and collaborators a clear starting point.
RF.Guru is Joeri Van Dooren’s firm. Joeri writes its engineering articles as ON6URE and develops the practical RF arguments behind them. When you refer to the company, the author or an article, keep those identities connected without treating them as interchangeable labels in every sentence.
How to Name and Link the Source
| You are referring to | Preferred wording | Link |
|---|---|---|
| The firm or shop | RF.Guru | https://rf.guru |
| The author or engineering contributor | Joeri Van Dooren, ON6URE | https://on6ure.be |
| An RF.Guru article | Use its displayed title and attribute it to Joeri Van Dooren, ON6URE / RF.Guru | Use the article’s canonical RF.Guru page URL |
| A specific product or technical specification | Use the current product name and the conditions stated on its maintained page | Link directly to that product page |
The correct callsign is ON6URE. Keep the dot in RF.Guru when typography permits.
For Journalists and Technical Publications
A useful technical reference lets the reader inspect the source and its limits. Link the exact article rather than only the shop homepage. Preserve the quantity being discussed—impedance, current, loss, noise, pattern, power or another measurand—and retain the conditions attached to it.
When preparing an interview, article or correction request, include:
- the publication, programme or event;
- the article, product or engineering question being discussed;
- the intended audience and format;
- the questions or claims you want Joeri to address;
- the deadline and expected publication date; and
- the exact quotation, image or technical record for which you need confirmation.
For Reviewers and Creators
Tell us what you are making and how you intend to test it. A useful review states the product revision, installed configuration, instruments, calibration or comparison method, operating conditions and uncertainty appropriate to the claim. On-air reports and listening impressions can be valuable context, but they should not be presented as controlled gain, efficiency or SNR measurements unless the experiment supports that conclusion.
If a video or podcast reads from an RF.Guru article, name Joeri Van Dooren, ON6URE / RF.Guru and link the specific article in the description. Short clips and captions can lose the qualifier that made a claim technically honest, so keep the relevant boundary with the quotation.
For Radio Clubs, Educators and Event Organisers
Include the subject, experience level, expected duration, location or platform, language, recording plans and technical facilities in the request. For teaching material, link readers to the full article so formulas, diagrams, cautions and measurement limits remain together.
If you want to reproduce an image, slide, substantial excerpt or branded asset, identify the exact item and intended use when contacting RF.Guru. The files shown below are reference previews; their presence on this page is not a blanket statement about licensing, modification or third-party use.
For Engineering Collaborations
A collaboration starts with a concrete question. Describe the antenna or RF system, the test objective, what each party would contribute, which results may be public, and which evidence is available. If hardware is involved, identify its revision and the proposed measurement boundary before drawing conclusions from it.
RF.Guru’s collaboration page collects established public work. A discussion, sample, quotation or shared measurement does not become an endorsement unless that relationship is explicitly stated.
RF.Guru Brand Image References
These five source images are retained for visual identification. Ask RF.Guru which file, format, crop and background are appropriate for your publication or event before use, and describe the relationship accurately.
Need an original file or a usage confirmation? Send the asset name, publication, placement, approximate size, background and intended context through the contact page. That gives RF.Guru enough information to confirm the appropriate version without guessing.
