What The Heck’s Been Going On, Stan? You Ask…

Mostly pretty much SSDD except for the following: Thurs the 25th the Ham Radio Club I belong to (NMARES) had their annual picnic at the Allyn Waterfront Park. It went really well. About 30 people showed up; members and visitors from the “other” clubs. Burgers were great! I had to be there early to help [...]

Where Does The Time Go? I’m “Retired” DangIt!

Well, lots has been going on even if not much of it is even worth writing about. Things have been mostly SSDD around here even if the weather has been getting better. At least it isn’t raining constantly! Radio “stuff” is going pretty good. Been talking to Australia & New Zealand, Canada and all over [...]

Testing Windows Live

Cause I haven’t yet found a decent blog program (for local writing and editing) since Post2Blog quit accepting input. I’ll delete this post later. IF it works… Seems to be doing okay posting a picture…

Radio stuff is going okay. Re-built my dipole and added coax instead of the 300 ohm tv line. I was getting way too much RF back into the shack. It worked pretty good with me getting all over the USA. Then I switched the transmitting side from the western side of the house to the [...]

New Antenna

Not bad for a home made antenna if I do say so myself! It works REALLY good on 10 & 20 meters.

Still doing the PSK31 Thing.

OTT, not much going on on the Radio front. No new equipment. Still thinking about building another antenna. Still making do with the one I have. But that's sort of the way it is when you do Ham Radio on a shoestring...

PSK31 And I Are…

Keep trying to get my friend in Pa on psk31. Pskreporter.info reports that my signal can be heard all around him but never where he lives. Kind of frustrating. But my signal has been reported in Maine, Florida and China. Woo Woo
