First soldering project
WOW that’s impressive. I love really small radios so much that I have two ATS 3 rigs in altoids tins. In fact I have a lot of gear built in those tins. Ok ok it's a bad habit I know, but it's better t

Filters for portable ops
Paul K3WWP operates exclusively QRP at 5 watts as does the people he operates with. I am unsure if filters would be required with QRP rigs operating on different bands using separate antennas. I did s

Antenna analyzer/SWR meter
Bob I hope what I said helped. Please let me know if there's anything I can do to be of more help. Best of luck with the General exam, and I look forward to rag chewing on CW with you.

Antenna analyzer/SWR meter
Well the answer to your question depends, 1. What type of antenna are you making? 2. What is the intended frequency of operation? 3. Is it to be fed with 50 ohm coax? 4. Is it a full size radiator or

Jim I just bought a model BM4070 off ebay (NEW) for $26.95 which includes free shipping. It arrived in about 5 business days. I checked it out and it seems to be reasonably accurate on low value (pf)

Good afternoon Dave, I have a question about the ATmega328P-PU micro available from Mouser. I would like to purchase another micro chip and load the latest version of the firmware using an Arduino uno

GM Dave and all in the group. I took a couple days off to extend the 4th holiday and used some of the time to build the Hilltopper kit. I followed the manual verbatim, doing each section in sequence.

Regarding the dummy load idea, Back in the days when I was running QRO (100) watts, I made a dummy load by immersing 20 1Kohm 2 watt carbon resistors in a quart of mineral oil with a SO239 mounted to

You don’t need a specific calculator, Just keep in mind that for parallel values of resistors the equivalent resistance will always be lower than the lowest value of any one resistor in the parallel c
