Setting up a SHARI Allstar Node with Kyle, AA0Z

Setting up a SHARI Allstar Node with Kyle, AA0Z

From HamProjects.info, the SHARI is a ham construction project designed by N8AR that implements a Raspberry Pi hosted Allstar node using a NiceRF SA818 embedded UHF (420 – 450 MHz) or VHF (144-148 MHz) radio module.

Tonight Kyle, AA0Z, joins me to assemble this node and do some on-the-air testing. Join us and be ready to connect to a Node that I will announce on the stream, and we will do some QSOs

A chat with David Minster NA2AA – ARRL Chief Executive Officer

A chat with David Minster NA2AA - ARRL Chief Executive Officer

When I received a ARRL mug in the mail and a personalized note from ARRL CEO, David Minster NA2AA I was stunned at the generosity and appreciative comments surrounding the YouTube channel from a radio organization that is in another country!

Today I have a chat with David around the ARRL, how you can be an international member and the benefits you can receive from doing so, as well as the upcoming Cycle 25 and the potential for some real ‘DX’ on the 10 meter band!

3 Reasons Not To Buy The Baofeng UV-5X GMRS Radio

3 Reasons Not To Buy The Baofeng UV-5X GMRS Radio

The new Baofeng UV-5X is FCC approved HOWEVER, it ships locked to a specific CTCS tone for receive and transmit and locked to narrow FM.
Available on Amazon, but hold off on them: https://amzn.to/3vrD2Wn
I much prefer the Midland GXT (now $70!): https://amzn.to/3tkpmuE
