The RSGB EMC Committee has released a new leaflet explaining how to build a portable loop antenna to help radio amateurs find sources of EMF interference. You can download it and all other EMC leaflets in the series, at rsgb.org/emc #amateurradio #hamr #hmarradio #EMC #EMFinterference #EMF

Have you heard of RADE? It is short for ‘radio auto encoder’ and is a new high-quality voice mode which has gained a great deal of attention in recent months This mode, and the software that implements it, continues to be rapidly developed👀#RSGBmembers, read more about RADE on page 70 of March's #RadCom in the mobile and web app #amateurradio #hamr #hamrradio #RadioAutoencoder #SDR #SSB #RADEv1 #MachineLearning #DigitalVoice #Codec

We didn't know this, did you?
