Thank you Don for your kind words. In the spirit of amateur radio this was definitely an amateur video. Glad you liked it. 72 and have fun in Thailand! Kevin K9NSE

I remember well Garriott's 1983 shuttle flight. Our family lived in Honduras at the time and I marveled at the possibility of hearing the space shuttle. One day I was doing something outside the house

I've got an Emtech ZM-2 I built about a decade ago. Still works like a champ. It'll frequently tune what my Elecraft T1 won't. I needed to use it for my Cricket 30 because the antenna was really

Speaking of magic/fun, and antenna experimentation, and balanced wire feedline... you might consider adding a z-match tuner to your arsenal of ham goodies. Something like:

Bob, I have been using WSPR for a couple of years now to check the effectiveness of my antennas for TX & RX. In just a few minutes you can see just how your system is working, make some changes and

Kevin K9NSE, Great job! A true labor of love and respect for the hobby. Your arms must still be aching after all that rock steady "Armstronging" of your phone/ camera Kevin. Hope to make OzarCon

All, I want to say I had a great time at OzarkCon!  Everyone I talked to was very friendly and interesting. I hope you all enjoyed the presentation on KiCad. There is a lot to learn and I really

Hi Bob, Antennas are the magic part of ham radio. Your 4sqrp tuner is a great one, basically designed for use with a "random length wire" antenna and a counterpoise wire. For portable use, the antenna

I've found the same thing, Curt. Using ExpressPCB to make SMT toner transfer designs, the footprints that are standard are no-doubt fine for machine assembly or paste & heat, but if you are using a
