Your Icom IC-705 can show your callsign on bootup/power on. It makes it a bit more personal and is a good way to identify your radio! In this #shorts video I show how to configure your 705 to do just that.
Also check out my other video on setting up the IC-705 for booting an opening picture!

The Windcamp Quick Release Antenna Bracket for the Icom IC-705 is a small accessory which helps for portable operation of your IC-705. The bracket provides stability to your radio, allowing better table top viewing, a convenient banana plug for GND connections and a SO239 for connecting to antennas (including portable verticals).

I’ve recently set up my HF station again after a number of years off air. I want to now start logging my QSO’s and chase my DXCC. So my question to you is: How should I log my ham radio contacts?
What do you recommend I use? Let me know in the comment below.

Can you use WSPR (Weak Signal Propagation Reporter) data to predict if it’s possible to make a SSB or CW contact? How can you use the data and correlate it up to make a contact?
Well after a recent comment by a viewer claiming that you can’t and that WSPR is useless, I decided to provide my opinion on this.

WSPR is a great tool to look at and measure propagation on the various ham radio bands. In this video I test my EFHW (end fed half wave) antenna to see if it is "getting out" and who could hear me. The results are quite interesting and you can clearly see propagation results!

Often, during the summer months, it is often possible to hear FM broadcast stations from far and wide thanks to the Ionosphere and Troposphere bending signals over the horizon. There are a few tricks to getting the most out of tuning the broadcast band looking for that distant station however.
At the next AREG meeting on Friday the 20th of November, Andy, VK5LA will give a presentation on “DXing” the FM band. He will discuss, what gear is needed, what gear works best and how to identify stations you don’t normally hear and cover topics like locations, antenna polarisation, and explore the RDS station ID feature built in to most modern FM receivers.
Andy will also discuss using the ACMA database to determine if that exotic station you’ve just tuned in to is 70, 700 or 1700 km away and describe the various propagation modes that make this interesting activity possible. Finally he will take a look at how that information can be used to predict openings on the 6 metre (50MHz) band and above.

The Icom IC-705 has the ability to set a opening picture that is briefly displayed at power ON. To set the displayed picture, a microSD card is required and the picture converted to a format that the IC-705 can read.
In this video I show the simple steps to convert a picture using Windows and Irfanview and load up a startup picture.

Can you reuse and recycle 18650 LiPo batteries for other projects and make a battery pack for 12 volts? Yes!
At a regular DATV experimenters night, Justin VK7TW took the audience through an update on his 18650 recycling project with a 12.6V battery pack. Justin covered the battery differences with 3.7V versus 4.2V batteries, the difference in balance charger boards, the Battery Matrix and construction method and the schematic of the battery configuration.
