Always happens. Got a phone call and I have had something come up. I'll probably get on later this evening when conditions are better anyway. Sorry about that. 73, Jim, W0EB

Any 4 Stater with some free time? I'm looking for a QRP contact using my 40 meter QCX Mini (puts out 7 watts at the moment.) Right now I'm parked on 7.122 exactly and listening for anyone - calling CQ

Looking to buy a used, working Elecraft T1 QRP portable antenna tuner (USA only). Cosmetic condition is not a concern as long as it’s working. Or, if anyone has an unbuilt kit with all parts complete

I give all of mine to the local library at the end of the year when I’m done with them. Head librarian is a ham but not an ARRL member so they all get bound up a year at a time and made available for

Hi Woody, I have mine set to 750 Fahrenheit on a mostly pointed tip with very slight rounding on the end. Seems to handle just about everything but the really heavy jobs like PL259 shields and the lik

Just worked Bert on 3.815 AM. I forgot to give him a Signal report - if you read this Bert, it was 5-5 to 5-6 in Park City, KS -- DE W0EB. Unfortunately I wasn't QRP at the time - used my K3S barefoot

Yeah, seems like my N3FJP log program has you at the wrong bearing and distance. It said bearing 170 degrees from me and 192 miles. You are at 65 degrees roughly and around 85 miles. It computed it fr

We're still too close - can't hear you on 30 - you're only about 190 miles from Park City and propagation just ain't there - LOL. Jim, W0EB

Anyone in the group (US hams) have an unbuilt QRPometer kit they would sell? Green board if possible? Please let me know price if you . Prefer to pay via Paypal. Reason for wanting an unbuilt one - I

Congrat’s Pam! Welcome to the hobby. Jim, W0EB

Call them using their NON 800 number during business hours Monday thru Friday. They are not open for the season yet so the phones are manned M-F during business hours only and I don't believe the 800#

I just saw a notice by David Cripe on the 4SQRP Facebook Group that the board has cancelled Ozarkcon 2020. Looks like Dayton ain’t gonna happen either as the Ohio governor just banned all large gather

Hey John, I was actually just joking with you, but your point even though humorous was well spoken. Thanks for thinking of those of us who are getting older and have such accessories as pacemakers kee

Morbidly funny John, but really, a good point. Some info on at least one brand of pacemaker (the one I have). I too have a pacemaker. I often run 500 watts and one end of the 160-80-40 meter antenna r

This was spoken for even before the message got sent out by groups.io Sorry. W0EB

The old iPAD has been spoken for already. W0EB

I have an older (I believe 4th generation - first one with the "Retina" display) iPAD available if anyone is interested. (My wife bought me a new Gen 7 version.) It has 16 gigs of memory which is a li

I have fond memories of those old heavy copper soldering irons. The first radio I ever repaired (I was around 11 years old) was done with one of those irons heated on the kitchen stove! The radio was

So sorry to hear of Bart's passing. He was a good friend and will certainly be missed by his family and those who knew him. Rest in Peace old friend. Jim - W0EB

Nice job Robert! I too have a 3D printer (in fact I have 2 of them). Thanks to K8IQY's tutelage, I've gotten to the point I can design stuff like this using Fusion 360. Currently working on cases for
