Michael, OK7SE, is having some problems with Over-The-Horizon Radars and is wondering what he can do to reduce the interference they are causing to his station. Where do these signals come from? Why are they so harmful to Hams?

Stephen, KK6ZJC, wants to make a dipole so that he can raise and lower 1/2 at a time. Is an antenna like this possible? What will such a contraption look like?

The Shock-Cord Vertical Antenna Guying Experiment (It Works!)
I’ve been experimenting with guying on my 18m fibreglass mast – and I’ve added 3 x 1m lengths of 12mm (1/2 inch) heavy shock-cord to the top guys. The result? Instead of the mast top shuddering in the wind, it’s now smooth and controlled.
In this video, I show you how I did it, why it works, and what I’m planning next for the station. If you’ve ever wondered whether shock-cord can tame verticals, this is for you!

Another day, another “broken” radio… except this one works perfectly. The only “problem”? It’s region locked, so it can’t transmit on the 70cm ham band. That’s not a defect — that’s how it was built.
In this video, I snarkily walk through the motions of testing a perfectly good radio that got returned by an unhappy customer. Spoiler: there’s absolutely nothing wrong with it.
⚡ What you’ll see in this episode:
• Why this radio isn’t “broken” at all
• The truth about region locking (and why it matters)
• How returns like this happen all the time
• A dose of sarcastic commentary for your entertainment
If you’ve ever bought a radio online and thought, “This thing doesn’t work!” — maybe watch this before you send it back.
