A Guide to Being a Skywarn Spotter
The United States is the most severe weatherprone country in the world.

Approximately 90% of all presidentially declared disasters are weather-related, causing around 500 deaths each year and nearly billion in damage.

Monitor your Ham Radio transmitter with an oscilloscope
This video shows a few ways that you can monitor your ham radio transmitter with an oscilloscope. Look at the RF carrier, the carrier envelope, the amplitude demodulated signal, as well as linearity “trapazoid” patterns (please see below). It shows a simple circuit I put together for a local ham radio club meeting and presentation. I put this circuit together to show the radio club members examples of a sampler and a amplitude demodulator. Of course, since these were built onto the same “demonstrator” board with a common RF input, the linearity can not be measured with this since any non-linearity in the output would appear in both sensors. This is indicated by the notes in the video. In order to truly measure the non-linearity of an amplifier or a modulator/exciter, the X-input would normally be driven by the baseband signal, or the demodulated input to an amplifier, etc., and the RF output would be sensed with the sampler and applied to the Y input of the scope.

Too Old for Contesting?
The club meeting was nearly over, but Charlie hadn’t uttered a single word all evening. He was sitting in the rear of the room, which was also unusual. After 15 years of attending Lakes-of-Utah Contest Club meetings with him, I knew he always arrived early and raced inside as soon as the doors opened to get a front-row seat. The unhappy frown on his face worried me the most because Charlie was …

KBRF-350 (9511) RADIO FREQUENCY Interference Filter Reviews
KBRF-350 (9511) RADIO FREQUENCY Interference Filter
The KBRF-350 is an RFI filter used to suppress electronic interference caused by motor speed controls. These controls utilize SCR or transistors that switch on and off rapidly causing high frequency interference pulses. These pulses are easily transmitted through the AC power lines which can then enter other equipment wired to the same line. In addition once the interference is allowed to conduct through the power lines the wires become radio antennas which actually radiate electromagnetic energ

The coax was cut to length, pl-259 was soldered on & a Tram dual band antenna was screwed onto the NMO mount.. The antenna was tested with an analyzer & all SWR checks were good on VHF & UHF..

14 mhz delta loop antenna
this is my 14mhz delta loop home made out of a 30ft fibreglass pole vertical section and 18f horizontal section,i have worked usa,brazil,argentina,africa,china,europe with this antenna with a yaesu ft847 and 50watts. The loop is fed in the centre for horizontal polarization and as you can see i have had good contacts all over the world.
Hey guys the edition sucks I know but Is just a sample to get some input about if is working or not! I will be updating this video later on. On this video I test in this order a Rubber ducky/Cloverleaf/SPW and last the helical. Thanks for watching and stay tuned for more info. Note that my helical antenna doesn´t have any type of impedance matcher.

Modification of an Alinco DR-635 dual band radio (144/440Mgz) to expanded transmit capability (MARS/CAP) 137Mgz-175Mgz, 420Mgz-480Mgz range. Their are many other dual band radios with the same capabilities and more, this one is just one I stuck with as a simple, easy to use, no frills mobile radio. There are many other radio bands to use, this is a small slice I like to use because of its proximity to Fire/Law/EMS/Govt frequencies for monitoring. It’s close to FRS, MURS, and GMRS frequencies as well. Nothing wrong with our CB and longer wavelength cousins, antenna construction and size limitation gets a little challenging when you are trying to be discreet in those bands. Don’t want to spend the money either.
