Lid---- ( Ignorant CB radio operator (CB’er with poor operating skills. The Term LID originated in Amateur radio and the CW mode. It meant "Poor Fist"). )

Lightning Protection---- ( There are several ways to help prevent lightning damage to your equipment (and your house), among them unplugging equipment, disconnecting antenna feed lines and using a lightning arrestor. )

Lights---- ( The signal strength of a received signal or S-meter units. (e.g. "You're giving me about 8 lights"). See also "Pounds" . )

Li-lon---- ( Rechargeable battery which has a better capacity than Ni-Cad, Ni-MH, and others, No memory effect after re-peated non-full charge/discharge cycles.) . )

Limiter---- ( A stage of an FM receiver that makes the receiver less sensitive to amplitude variations and pulse noise. )

Linear amplifier---- ( Device used to step up power above legal maximum set by FCC. )

Linearity---- ( The property found in nature and most analog electrical circuits that governs the processing and combination of signals by treating all signal levels the same way. )

Line-of-sight Propagation---- ( The term used to describe VHF and UHF propagation in a straight line directly from one station to another. )
