OK! From today I am officially retired!!! After 42 years of professional radiomonitoring now I can go back to "play" with the radio 😎😎😀😀😀

@ibelings YES, PLEASE!!

While looking for a power connector, found 50-100 new SDR-IP motherboards. Maybe I should make a new Artix-7 plug-in for it, or just make a new SDR.

@Rainmaker1973 ZERO

How many points did you get?

@Rainmaker1973 positive

Post below the first word you see.

@aborgnino ne sono passate diverse sotto le mie lenti !!!! molto bella e funzionale :-)

My dream

@F5VMJ .. 2nd edition here, but an evergreen book !!!🤓🤓

Later on co-wrote a bible: ‘The Art of Electronics’ by Horowitz and Hill. Which I’ve had versions of on my shelves for nearly 40 years. A handy reference especially in the pre-internet days. #AmateurRadio #hamradio #qo100

@g0mrf cool!!! any more infos ( avail / price)? tnx 🤓

Need a UHF preamp? I've just received these boards from PCBWay. Should be 16dB gain on 435 with a 2m notch filter on the input. N F. Less than 0.7dB with power via the coax. Should have the first one assembled tomorrow.

last night my first heard "over the pond" via LEOsat: #KB1HY FT4 via RS44 at abt 4000km slant range ... Actually my little system works nice!! 😎😎

@vk6ysf97230 try to move "outward" the helix... it's phase center is in the wrong place... my one Eurocent 😎

Received signals from GEO‑KOMPSAT‑2A (GK‑2A) are way weaker than required, so work on the focal point of the Helical Antenna or review of the general focal antenna design maybe needed. Any comments or suggestions most welcome. #goes #weathersatellite #satdump

L Band Dish antenna assembled with Nooelec GOES SAW filter & ultra–Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) Attached. Bench tested with SDR receiver and all working. #goes #weathersatellite #satdump

@flo_0_ .... with 1W/85cm over 60KHz... nahhh, going to have a beer...🤬😈

ears *and* eyes hurt ... 🤬😫

Just worked VO1/@F4BKV in Canada 🇨🇦 (Gridsquare: GN37PN / distance: 4224.5 km) on QO-100 🛰️ (28.6° el / 156.7° az) using USB #hamr #wavelog #amsat

@F5VMJ Nice! Seems a lot my setup HIHI!! Go for SKY65135 PA, 30 dBm OP / 30 dB gain, nice spectrum, very affordable, perfect buddy for Pluto+

1. Spent winter in the dungeon… and collected a smörgåsbord of QRPp main movers: Ordered+tested for different configs. Also, a mix of cheap Amazon coax cables …perfect as AdHoc 2.4GHz cable ‘attenuators’ for milliwatting into QO-100. Because in SM/ less is more …it’s roving ‘al dente’. #qo100 #hamradio #AmateurRadio #amsat

@Rainmaker1973 32

Only 9 for me. You?

@indiawhiskey1 @aborgnino @Chris_Diemoz @shortwave78 @i56578_swl secondo me no... online si trovano info più aggiornate ed in più molte UTE non esistono più

@vittben @aborgnino @Chris_Diemoz @shortwave78 @i56578_swl Adesso vale la pena comprarlo? Ne ho una copia di 10 anni fa

It's impressive to see how many Italian UTE stations were active on HF (from a Klingenfuss guide from the early 90s) @Chris_Diemoz @shortwave78 @i56578_swl

@ryzerth congrats!! well done 🤓😎😎

I have just officially graduated. I now have an MSc. in Aerospace Engineering!

Post a picture you took. No descriptions, just a pic.

@nascom1 It's a very sad news -- all my support to you and your colleagues. All the best Richard 👍💪

After 15 Year of posting about my passion for NASA and specifically the DSN, I'm finding it harder posting as an individual within the new NASA media framework. Its been a pleasure sharing my experiences and hopefully people have enjoyed them. All the best 😀

@F5VMJ CW please!!! 😎 I do not like FTx, but seems that to get a new country/grid/etc today this is the way, sadly... Expecially if been QRP (...you know...!)

Thanks for the feedback. Great for rubber stamp QSOs (but sloooooooow). FT4 faster (but still slooooow). I tried VarAC many moons ago. And also JS8Call. But ultimately both seemed over complicated …in the end, I would just use CW. Although, did like the mailbox facilities (but then, I could just use WinLink).

Not my cup of tea. 🇮🇸Trying FT8 on this trip. Runs flawlessly (mostly) and I can switch between SSB/FT8 smoothly (mostly). As much as I dislike it …it does seem to be popular. So will try it more over the next week. Thanks for video Tasos SV2HZT @sv2hzt" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">tiktok.com/@sv2hzt

Just had qso with TF/@F5VMJ IP26bh via QO100 SSB with my mighty 500 mW !!! Tnx Paulo for your ears, hi!!

And, as promised, here it is!!! First public release of my SDR transceiver developed with @gnuradio dev software: urtx.sourceforge.io Comments, suggestions, infos will be welcome via my QRZ.com email profile

and, at last FIRST QO100 QSO!!! @DJ0WJ worked in FT8 with abt 250 mW + 85 cm dish... My SDR transceiver works too!!! I am almost moved after months of experimentation....😁😁😁
