If It Works, It Ain’t Stupid – Ham Radio Improv

Post author By admin
Post date November 17, 2024

Where is the line between innovation, improvisation and just plain stupid? Does it even exist when operating portable. Growing up on a farm, improvisation was a way of life. Broken things needed to be fixed, and usually with what was on hand. Portable operations are much the same when things don’t go exactly to plan. This is a light hearted look at “making do” when operating field days, SOTA and EME.

The FUTURE of Ham Radio DXing & Contesting

Post author By admin
Post date November 15, 2024

Technological progress has impacted radio contesting, most strongly on operating systems, logging and entries to the competition but also on the technical facilities used to maximize score.

Martin VK7GN talks about radios used in those early field days to the modern SDR and top range transceivers like the Icom 7851. From the paper logging to computer logging. From entries by post to real-time internet entry.

Ground is a Myth! | Kristen McIntyre K6WX

Post author By admin
Post date November 10, 2024

Kristen McIntyre K6WX, First Vice President of the ARRL presented at the Tassie Ham-E-Con Ham Radio Conference about "Ground is a Myth" and the intriguing cases of grounding!
@ARRLHQ

Ground is easy to understand when it means something you stand on, but in the electrical world, it’s a bit more complex—especially for hams. We pound rods into the earth, but why? Let’s dig into whether this all makes sense and what theory really says about "ground." Does it exist in any practical way?
