While we weren’t looking, HRN’s 10th Anniversary rolled by last HRN 427 Ten Point Tooth Anniversary plus MARS Interop
February. We’re gonna make up for it now.A little. A very little.
And last week we noted the MARS/Amateur Interop event all last week. That caught our attention more than we expected. So we listened, and now we review.
Ata, TA3KVO, asks maybe a little too much about Baluns, nevertheless Dave will do his best to answer and explain all he can, but if you would like to point us to more sources please do so by sending it to askdave@arrl.org.
