Frequency and Wavelength and Speed of Light

Frequency and Wavelength and Speed of Light

Wavelength and Frequency can be worked out once we understand the speed of light. By dividing the frequency by 300, we achieve the exact wavelength. Try it yourself, divide 300 by 3.75 and you get 80m. That’s the 80m band. In this video we discuss mains frequency, 3-phase, audio frequency and in particular, the famous 300 – to – 3000 Hz frequencies ideal for communications voice and also sound frequencies. Enjoy! Callum.

HMD 300 Pro – Best Headset I’ve Ever Owned

HMD 300 Pro - Best Headset I've Ever Owned

I know you can buy headsets for a "fiver" but if you are serious, these take some beating. I plugged these into the TS-990s Ham Radio and was quite surprised. NOTE: I have EQ set on my radio for a Heil Headset – there is no doubt I could probably make both mics on show here sound a lot better..! Callum.
