The HF Test Set
As announced at OzarkCon 2007, a bunch of ham radio geeks called the Four States QRP Club (4SQRP) have developed a new kit, a multifunction HF test set, designed by Wayne McFee, NB6M. This new kit contains the following individual pieces of test equipment:

* Frequency Counter
* Crystal Oscillator
* Wideband Noise Generator
* Audio Oscillator
* 50 Ohm Dummy Load
* RF Probe
* Time Domain Reflectometer

I don’t even know what a time-domain reflectometer is, but well, thar she blows!

This week, Surfin’ visits the ARRL’s Evolution of Amateur Radio Exhibit — virtually and in person.

Here is a short pan across our campsite at 5600′ atop Santiago Peak in Orange County, CA. Darin and I setup a nice HF + VHF station the previous night. Equipment was a YaesU FT-857d and a Kenwood TS-520. The antenna was a 102″ G5RV setup as inverted-v. The metal pipes you see sticking out of the ground are viewfinders for popular landmarks like Catalina Island, Mt Palomar and Mt Wilson.
