HAMS That Push Others Away – STOP Doing This!

Post author By admin
Post date November 18, 2024

This is from a Reddit article titled, "One of the Many Reasons People Avoid Amateur Radio" – I don’t know if I agree with "many reasons" but the point made in this article is a valid one. We need to stop doing this, and start welcoming more people into the fold. Your thoughts?

I Made a Home Brew Tilt-Over Antenna Mast – Q & A

Post author By admin
Post date November 17, 2024

I made a 14m / 45-ft ham radio mast from scaffold tubes using a "falling derrick". This is how I did it and these were the top questions that were asked many times:

1. No gloves. Correct, I can always let go rather than get tangled in clothing
2. The slot at the base is fine there is no sideways or twisting pressure here only downward pressure
3. The lines will be changed once I have prototyped this (read description!)
4. G- 450 Rotator has a spec of 200kg downward force. Create RC5-1 is 400kg. We’ll fix the Create
5. Marine hardware and pulleys are better. Yes they are (cost!) but this is a cheap prototype
6. You don’t have help? No – what would the other person do other than get in the way?
7. Edge-trim. Now sourced, thanks.
8. The music is listed below
9. Twisting pulleys will get fix on next upgrade
10. Still worried about the rotator? Don’t be
11. Yes – some day we’ll get a winch. Hang on
12. Detuning the mast from 40m – won’t coax and ethernet cock calculation up? Maybe – but I still need to detune the mast.
13. Yagi is off by 1.8 degrees. Yes – not checked before lift. Fixed next time it’s down
13. Does the PoE Ethernet up the pole generate any noise? No.

Music at end is "Celestial Spheres – Ave Air" [found on Epidemic Sound]

If It Works, It Ain’t Stupid – Ham Radio Improv

Post author By admin
Post date November 17, 2024

Where is the line between innovation, improvisation and just plain stupid? Does it even exist when operating portable. Growing up on a farm, improvisation was a way of life. Broken things needed to be fixed, and usually with what was on hand. Portable operations are much the same when things don’t go exactly to plan. This is a light hearted look at “making do” when operating field days, SOTA and EME.
