SS40TX sold
Don Jackson
The SS40TX kit is sold pending funds and 3 more buyers in line.
Thanks everyone! I'll eventually be cleaning house with more various kits I never got "a round 2" over the years. It is amazing what a pack rat like me accumulates over 63 years of ham radio plus even a few before that. 72/73, Don AE5K

AES is closing it's doors..........announced via ARRL email today
Phil <w0xiphil@...>
Hey All,
The AES amateur radio chain is closing its doors this week. The company was
founded in 1959 or so by Terry, he is since SK.
I attended many hamfests at AES Millwaukee over the years and even got a
ride in Terry’s private aircraft back in the 1980s.
He had four FM rigs equiped with trailing antennas and we’d make FM
contacts with walkies on the ground; lots of fun.
Uncle Phil,
w0xi

Antique Vibroplex Original bug for sale
I have for sale a 1934 vintage Vibroplex Original that saw lots of
service in a telegraph office somewhere. The serial number is 107,5xx which through look-up on the Vibroplex.com website dates it to 1934. Considering it's age it's in remarkably good condition. It has chipping in the original "Japanned" black lacquer base and the pinstriping is almost completely gone but can still be seen if the light is right. It's easy to tell that this was a working telegrapher's key by the groove worn in the key's paddle and knob. I've never seen one like this before. I'm asking $130.00 shipped anywhere in the continental U.S. only via USPS Priority Flat Rate mail. I've had this bug on the air and it really sings. Preferred payment method would be PayPal, but I'll take USPS money orders as well. Please reply off the reflector if you're interested and I can send pictures via email. I do not know how to post pix on the reflector. Jim Sheldon, W0EB 2029 East Evanston St. Park City, KS Phone# 316-744-3022

For sale: SS-40TX Kit
Don Jackson
It appears I'll never get to this kit, so I'm selling it with the hope someone else may build and benefit from it.
This is the K8IQY-designed SS-40TX transmitter which is now sold out and discontinued from the 4SQRP kit stable, but sold earlier this year for $50 plus shipping. You can still read about it and get all the info on it from the 4sqrp.com web pages. If you have the companion SS-40 receiver and not the transmitter, here's your possible last chance to get the companion transmitter. Description: This well designed transmitter is a companion to K8IQY's highly regarded SS-40 receiver. It produces up to 9 watts (can be set to 5W) and uses a hefty, cool running MOSFET as a final. All parts are through hole lead parts. This is an unbuilt kit, only the outer bubble mailing envelope has been opened for inspection, all parts are still in their respective original plastic bags. I am asking $35.00 and $2.00 postage, or $37 total. PayPal accepted as well as a USPS postal money order. Email me OFF LIST and please give a phone number where I may reach you to finalize the transaction. My email is donj at ae5k dot us Don AE5K

Second Sunday Sprint
John Lonigro
Don't forget! This coming Sunday, from 7:00 - 9:00 pm CDT, is the July Second Sunday Sprint. Go to QRPContest.com/4sqrp for complete rules. That's also where you will enter your results. Please do that by Tuesday evening, July 12th, at the latest. I will take a look at the results Wednesday and record them for my spreadsheet. I will also send a certificate to the person with the highest score this month. It could be YOU!!!! (but only if you participate).
Just for curiosity, if you participate for 15 minutes or more, please enter your score, even if it is ZERO (0). I'd like to get a feel for how many people are trying each month, even if they are only listening. I'll do this for 6 months (July - December) and decide whether I want to continue running this contest or throw in the towel and let it fall by the wayside (or let someone else pick it up). 72, John AA0VE 4SQRP Contest Coordinator

Re: Opinions or experience
random.path
I think that they make reasonable hardware. For more info on scopes, go to eevblog.com forums and do a search on GDS-2204E. Lots, and lots, of discussion on test gear and oscilloscopes in particular by people who use them. Plenty of opinion available. 73 Chip AE5KA

Re: Moon-bounce stuff
Lets not forget Tommy - WD5AGO, a college professor in Tulsa, OK who has world records via moon bounce! Tommy, has been a member of 4SQRP nearly since our inception. He also designed the 17 meter transceiver that is on our Group web site. He is a super resource if you are serious about doing moon-bounce. 72 / 73....Walter Dufrain - K5EST

Receiver kits back in stock
ZZRX-40 kits are back in stock, orders are being accepted, and shipping has resumed. Thank you for your patience. Yes, this is the red enclosured receiver that was featured on the front cover of July QST. The kit also includes AAØZZ's excellent silk screened and drilled enclosure design. Refer to the photo page for details. There are NO SMT parts to install, only through hole parts are used, making this an easy kit to build. After all the parts are installed it is complete and ready to try out. No alignment is required and it may be put on the air immediately after the last part is installed. Thank you for your support of the 4SQRP kits which allows us to present OzarkCon, the premier QRP Conference in the Mid-West in April each year. April 7-8, 2017 in Branson, MO! 72 / 73....Walter Dufrain - K5EST -- Kit Mgr 4SQRP

This from the NOGA reflector. Really good stuff, informative and
entertaining, especially the scope usage videos.

Mr Carlson videos
are very good. I've been a subscriber for over a year now.
YouTube has a wealth of information on ham radio and
electronics. Another one that I subscribe to is W2AEW, Alan
Wolke. He is an electronics engineer and Tektronix guru and
has lots of scope, electronic tutorial and repair videos.
This is a compiled list of his videos.
