Crazy 40m pileup last Thursday evening (4th Jan 24) here in England. Left VFO is the Vertical Array and Right VFO is a low-to-ground dipole. The Preamp switched on for the dipole because it can’t receive DX that well. Left VFO does not have preamp. Headphones recommended. Callum.

In this insightful video, we test the performance of K-Type Toroid Balun Chokes. Join us as we explore the effectiveness of these balun chokes in for your ham radio station. Ham radio enthusiasts understand the significance of having a well-tuned antenna system for optimal signal reception and transmission. Traditional coaxial cables can be prone to noise, interference, and imbalanced signals. However, with the integration of K-Type Toroid Balun Chokes, we want to test if you can minimize these issues and elevate your overall ham radio experience. Chokes not only help in achieving a balanced transmission line, but they also drastically reduce the common-mode currents that can cause signal distortions and interference. In this video, we provide a comprehensive guide on how to test K-Type Toroid Balun Chokes for your ham radio antenna setup. We demonstrate the step-by-step testing process, ensuring you understand how to correctly evaluate these balun chokes. Whether you are a seasoned ham radio operator or a beginner looking to take your antennas to the next level, this video is a must-watch.
NOTE: Perhaps stacking the k-type cores would give to better thermal protection and greater attenuation? Maybe more testing in the future…

First, we take a look at a TODAY show segment on a high school radio club’s ARISS contact, outstanding because the whole thing was student-led, and also because they got Network TV coverage.
Then – SPOILER ALERT!! – a review of the Netflix movie "Leave the World Behind", which caught ham’s attention for a brief scene right at the end that featured a well-equipped ham station. Yes, we will SPOIL THE PLOT because it deseres to be spoiled, and you don’t need to waste time on this movie.

You can do this too. John made it through on 35W 🙂 This is a quick summary of the calls I made a few days ago whilst remote from Cornwall. Just amazing. It was so much fun to blast all those calls in the log. And 2 nights later, it was even more crazy! Time stamp on this video: https://www.youtube.com/live/BOX2sPAZaOk?si=KDnDyAQkCWaxYrNa&t=850
