Radio dabbler and recovering physicist. Mostly on 40, 20 and 2m. Likes building things and learning how things work. Working on my Extra.
@HopelessDemigod They also neg their applicants for the same reason. They run applicants through multiple day-long interviews, don't hire them, and then call them 6 months later asking them to re-apply.
Q: I've got a 40m/20m fan dipole and I'd like to add an 80m element but don't have enough space. Is there a way to fold or otherwise reduce the length of the 80m element while still feeding it at the same point?
The bad news: tree branch took out one leg of my fan dipole antenna. The good news: that stopped it from taking out my roof
@kirkman Brings me back to working at WMBR
@MW1CFN Do you know of low cost transmitters for HF? That seems to be the sticking point for a lot of folks
@HopelessDemigod I monitor 146.520. mostly folks are just on the local repeater though
I have some grow lights that produce a lot of interference on 40m. If I want to fix that, how hard is that likely to be and where would I start?
@k8vsy I've practiced for a while with some Android apps. Also just came across morsle here and it's really helping my letter recognition
