Lee, KD9SWA, wants to know how to tune his antenna without an analyzer as he does not have one right now. He has an SWR meter and some good methods to find it without all the tools but is there a better way?

QRP POTA from Australia. Can I get 10 contacts? Parks on the Air

Post author By admin
Post date April 26, 2022

This weekend I decided to go camping – and activate my first ever park with Parks on the Air – POTA.

The park was the South Bruny National Park (VK-0547). This park is also part of the VKFF and WWFF programs.

I had a blast – and you won’t believe the contacts I made with just 5W to a KM4ACK EFHW antenna.

How Solar Weather and Propagation Works

Post author By admin
Post date April 25, 2022

Larry K7HN hosts an "almost daily" YouTube livestream where his contagious, positive, uplifting personality attracts amateur radio operators from around the world. He promotes the hobby by featuring hams at their best, and imparting his knowledge about the hobby. On every show he explains solar weather in a way that is easy to understand. We have invited him to the show to help us better understand solar weather, it’s related charts, and radio propagation generally. We will also talk about his portable ops experience in Hawaii which should be quite interesting.

Join us as we talk about how YOU can better understand solar weather in this episode of the All Portable Discussion Zone “AP/DZ”. Every aspect of Portable Ops is explored in this biweekly live stream as we discuss news, gear, achievements, the workbench, contests, awards and more – find all Portable Ops related topics here.
