Adding Antenna Support Pole (#543)

Post author By admin
Post date October 9, 2021

Frank, KD9FRT, has a EFHW 80-10 antenna between 2 trees but its very low. He is pretty sure he needs to raise the antenna so the trees won’t interfere but he needs some pointers. Watch to learn more.

Post author By admin
Post date October 8, 2021

I’m taking a 10,000 FT look at three types of ham radio programing software. There’s so much to unpack here that a quick overview is 20 minutes. We’re looking at RTSystems software, Yaesu’s ADMS-14 package and CHIRP. The radio I’m using is the new Yaesu FT5.

You can pickup the software at:
https://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/Home

Show Notes:
Join Me every Monday at Noon Mountain Time (1800 UTC) for lunch & ham radio. I’ll bring in short subjects that we can dive in and look at, you can bring up subjects to discuss. You can also join me as a guest on the show.

More Gain, More Power – 2m S2S Madness

Post author By admin
Post date October 8, 2021

The Arizona Summit-to-Summit 10 Point Madness event provides a great opportunity to push the limits of 2m simplex and see what’s possible over long distances. Although I didn’t set any new personal records on this trip, some great contacts were made and plenty of fun was had.

The yagi is a homebrew design made from U-channel aluminum, steel hardware, and arrow shaft elements. The matching network is made from parallel 1/4 wavelength sections of 75 ohm coax to transform the 28 ohm yagi impedance up to 50 ohms. Those coax sections are wound a few times through a toroid as a common mode choke.

The boom is about 8 ft in length when extended and folds down to 32 inches. total weight of the antenna is about 2 lbs, and the pool cleaning pole mast adds another 2 lb or so.
