Hello fellow Snovarcians, I have a brand new Mackie Mix 8 mixer that is still unopened in its box (actually it's still in its unopened UPS shipping box). Mixers are great for connecting, for example,

My Yaesu 400 has an altitude indicator. That is a great correlation with signal strength I’ve learned.

... and I forgot to mention how the Fresnel zone affects highly directional antennas. Basically the lower the frequency the wider the Fresnel zone. Sent from my T-Mobile 4G LTE device

There was a guy in the Redmond Radio club that built a device that would measure tuned signal strength RSSI (received signal strength indicator). I used to have test equipment and software for Mobile

Does this take the tree line into consideration? -- Thanks, Rowland

Yes, that is a great map. I’m curious what software that is too! Lots of uses for that.

Every Saturday night at 8pm, there is a Simplex net on 146.55 Lately, the host has been Dan KB7RYY in Bellevue. Dan is easy to hear, but there are lots of 5w stations around that can be a challenge.

I defiantly want one when they go on sale! That is assuming Icom does not price it outside of my means. Cool QRP Rig. I love the display on the 7300, so this is big plus. Also it

I’m in need of a portable HF unit. I love the idea that this unit is both HF & VHF/UHF with lithium ion battery on board. Also same interface as the 7300. Only 10w but could carry an amp. What do

Awesome Shawn! I'm interested in learning more about HAMWAN and how we can leverage it. Thank you and to the rest of the team driving this! P.S. What software did you to create that map? --

Grr. the screenshot I added didn't go through...resending --Shawn --K7ATA

Cool! I wasn't up to speed on HAMWAN.

We (K7RWB, W7PFB, K7ATA) recently did a LOS (line-of-sight) survey from the carnation shack to the HAMWAN station atop Rattlesnake Ridge. WITHOUT roof access (new locks, new code) we were able to do

Don't pull too much hair out or you will look like me.......and that is a scary thought! I would be up for a Zoom VARA class. Thanks, Rowland

Paul (W7PFB) - you are correct. It was a good learning experience and exactly what the drill was for… (its still frustrating ;-) and It’ll take a while to grow back the patch of hair I pulled out

The problem with two tuners is that they’re solving for a tuning solution at the same time, at varying speeds and by adjusting impedances in different ways. In essence, each tuner is expecting a

Paul - here is the unit that I’m using… of course, there’s alway a high probability that I am not using it
