The YouTubers Bunch
Many people have built one of these. They display some incredible characteristics higher up the frequency range, particularly on 20m and up. But still outstanding on 80m and 40m too. If you have the space, please build one! Callum, M0MCX.

It’s Friday again and I’m on HF. I have NO idea what conditions will be like but we can try for some contacts. Join in, chat or call me. I don’t mind. I just love my hobby! Using club callsign M0XXT and logging software is N1MM. 73, Callum.

HRN 436: Finally… a Real Show
After several ‘No Show – Not a Show’ shows, this is an offical show. All that means is that it’ll be longer. Not necessarily better.

Rember the Starduster? Why don’t we make a copy of this out of wire and put it up 18m or 60 feet? We can make this from wire and have the legs as guys! Let me know what you think and if there is enough support, we’ll build it. Callum, M0MCX.
Any hobby done well is expensive. Fishing and Golf cost about a THOUSAND notes to get into – so does Astrophotography (for instance). But how much can we build our first station for? Let’s have a look. 73, Callum, M0MCX.
I’m getting rid of all this wire (it’s gone now already!). If you want 2nd reserve in case Aaron can’t make it, leave a comment 🙂
Not all PL259s are the same. The newer designs are a superior design and accurate. Anyway, I nearly cock this up. Perhaps rate me out of 10! Callum.
