▶️ Radio Interference - QRN vs QRM - I'm Confused?!

Every time I mention Man-Made QRM, I get an argument from someone telling me I have it wrong. Well, I’ve only been doing this 20 years so I need to know. What is it? QRM or QRN?

Fitting new Coax Cabinet in Antenna Field

Fitting new Coax Cabinet in Antenna Field

This second cabinet is for the Genius 8×2 remote switch, CCTV, Ethernet Switch, Mains and WiFi etc, etc . This one is from RS Online. It’s 50mm / 2-inches deeper than the previous one which is just as well because EcoFlex 15 doesn’t bend very well! I didn’t know it was this deep when I ordered it but handy anyway. Callum.

Genius 8×2 Incredible Remote Coax Switch

Genius 8x2 Incredible Remote Coax Switch

I have JUST plugged this in and so far it exceeds my expectation. Works with any radio although deep inside the guts, Flex is supported heavily as well as Yaesu and Icom. But any radio will work with this. You just need an ethernet connection between your shack and this box (and a 12V supply) to your shack bulkhead. In my case, it’s going out in the field in a professional electrical metal box. I will show you that video at a later date – this is my initial findings. Enjoy! Callum.

The device is here: https://4o3a.com/antenna-genius-8×2

Parasitic Antenna Array with 2 Verticals

Parasitic Antenna Array with 2 Verticals

The 2-element parasitic array follow same principles as the Yagi. One of the verticals is parasitic and is the reflector. Delivers around 4-5 dB extra gain and has reasonable f/b. Easy to make for /P or temporary work. Have one facing USA or EU. Lots of fun. 73, Callum.

How to Make Your Radio Louder and BE HEARD

How to Make Your Radio Louder and BE HEARD

You don’t need to be technical to make this work. This is not a technical solution, this is about how to manage your power output on SSB. Works less well on FM and AM but the concepts are the same. I talk about compression and how to modulate your SSB signal better to cut through the pile-ups and get your station heard. Callum.
