Want to see where baby antennas are made? This is the spot.
Stop by for a quick tour of my electronics workbench, the simple tools I use, and how I organize my junk, then join us on Temporarily Offline’s stream to chat about our workbenches.
Welcome to my youth workshop series! Learn how to be a good elmer, inspire young people, and share your passion for amateur radio. We need your help to make amateur radio a fun and welcoming place for youth!

#Ham #Radio #Repeater #2MC
2MC ANTI-NET EVERY WEDNESDAY AT 7PM PST
INFO: Channel 2 for the Anti-Nets if this one is down will be over on Nick’s / KN6DAL channel Link: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCvQ5mDcc4zlgdW10hy3c5Fg
This is not a net in the traditional way and everyone is a visitor. We take check-ins so we can circle back to people and give them a chance to chat. There is a Facebook Group to join under “2MC”.
EchoLink and AllStar was added in the beginning of 2020 to allow people globally to check in and join the fun. Also, we leave the links up all the time. So feel free to key up the repeater anytime.
Primary EchoLink is W6VVR-R and Secondary is WG5EEK-L. You can also use our AllStar Node 51094
Live AllStar/EchoLink website & more: https://WG5EEK.com
A huge thank you to the Vaca Valley Radio Club – W6VVR for the use of the repeater. It’s a great machine sitting on top of Mt. Vaca around 2,800 feet high, about 60 miles East from San Francisco. Link to club’s website: https://w6vvr.net/
