2' Grounding Plate (Short #112)

@Daimajin696 mentions that a 2′ square grounding plate could work as an alternate for a full 8′ ground rod. Is this true?

LCR Meter – Homebrew Test Equipment #hamradio #electronics

LCR Meter - Homebrew Test Equipment #hamradio #electronics

I went to the Oro Valley Amateur Radio Hamfest in Marana, AZ and found a great deal on an LCR meter.

I’ve made progress on the Solder Smoke Podcast homebrew 40 meter direct conversion receiver. I didn’t have an LCR meter for testing the transformers of the mixer. It really isn’t necessary to measure the inductance of the transformers. Just making sure there are 10 turns is good enough. But I wanted to be thorough and wanted to makes sure I have an LCR meter for future projects. So I picked one up at the hamfest.

HRN 553: EmComm Display at the 2025 Dayton Hamvention®

HRN 553: EmComm Display at the 2025 Dayton Hamvention®

When you walk in the main gate at the Hamvention, the first exhibit you encounter is a collection of vehicles outfitted to the gills with ham radio. The banner says ‘EmComm Vehicle Display’, and some of the vehicles are truely that, sponsored by organizations dedicated to emergency response. Others have diffeent purposes: contests, rovers, or just the ability to escape a poor home QTH and get to a better operating location, and they are personal projects.

In this episode we’ll meet some of the hams responsible for these impressive rolling ham shacks, and take a look at what they’ve built.

About this episode:
Last May, the HamRadioNow Mobile Production Unit (that’s Gary K4AAQ) shot some TOURS at the Hamvention, which the HRN Editorial Unit (also Gary K4AAQ) promptly edited and posted. The MPU also shot a bunch of interviews at the ‘fest, which have been languishing on the editor’s hard drive ever since, while life went on. Now, somehow, Gary found a few spare minutes to slap one of those segments together.

There are a bunch more. Apparently Gary could use some encouragement to spend time slaving over a hot editing computer. Perhaps you can make some comments. Or just tell him to burn the drives and forget the whole thing 😒
