La posición del walkie en las salidas al campo
La montaña no negocia señales, ¿cómo podemos optimizar la cobertura durante las caminatas? Con todo preparado, nuestra salida a la montaña tiene un componente extra de preparación…

I pulled every frequency within 100 miles of home from RepeaterBook and had Claude organize them into 391 channels across 17 named memory banks, exported as a CSV for RT Systems. It also designed a two-sided quick reference guide (images).
Best part: I finally get named memory banks on my Yaesu FT5DR.
Has anyone just tried to plug in the cable and see if Claude can program the radio directly??? I may give it a go.

There's something cool about having all your radios turned on in the dark

Last night I gave a 20-minute talk to PART of Westford about island operating: four years of Scout trips to Peddocks Island in Boston Harbor, the US Islands Awards Program, getting there, camping, my gear, and why a short trip feels like a small expedition.
Slides are in the post.
Order has arrived. Each box has a smaller label with an RF chip and antenna on the back. I'll have to do a net search later on to see what band they operate in and see if I have any gear that will allow me to read it.
Edit to add a URL. It appears to be this chip: https://www.arizonrfid.com/shop/az-mr7n-178

Evidence that I'm a radio geek.
TIL that UPS has RFID tracking for some packages. Have a shipment arriving today. Looking forward to playing with the tags about as much as receiving the order.

Hey if one is bored you could use amateur radio to bounce signals off of Venus!
Most ham radio operators will go silent 48 hours after a grid failure. Paper licenses and commercial power won't save us when infrastructure collapses. Build real off-grid capability now. 📻⚡️

I now have my HAM radio license! I’ll be on the airways as callsign KO6PPG. #amateurradio
Two good things that happened.
Installation of Pulse Effects on Debian was successful.
AC DC Bon Scott version is kicking my eardrums asses. Dirty Deeds album to be exact.
A Prolific PL203 usb to serial port adapter was found to work on the Kenwood TS870.
Now computer control and other modes of transmit are opened up for me.

Particularly as this country slides into #WhiteSupremcist #authoritarianism. The idea of #apolitical #amateurradio rings hollow when platform companies can shutdown the sites of folk because they are attempting to curry favor with the #trumpregime.
This is tough post. I’m grown. If you don’t like what I write or say, let’s talk about it. What I can’t abide is the #ghosting. It’s cowardly. I’ve no interest in or time for retribution. I’ll leave that for the president & his minions. I’m attempting to build something grand with the help of the #amateurradio community. Join us and be free.
If at first you don’t succeed, try again.
Anyone know how to plug up a ⅜″ hole, though?
Troop 119 took Jamboree on the Air to the center of Lexington this year.
We got a town permit, set up a station in the town center, and invited other troops to drop in. 10 and 20 meters, lots of contacts, and several Scouts on the mic for the first time. 7 licensed adults and 4 licensed Scouts made it easy.

So my first proper 2/70 radio, a Yaesu FT-736R. Got it at a rally and I'm pretty happy with it

EI0TOG & EI2OARC out in the park! 📻🌳
Vic EI5IYB, Ana EI5IXB and Jeffrey EI7IRB headed to Kerdiffstown Park in Kildare yesterday for some Parks on the Air fun, joined by friends from the Online Amateur Radio Community Ireland.
We got on the air using both club callsigns, EI0TOG and EI2OARC. Good company and a great excuse to get the radios outdoors!
Thanks to everyone who gave us a call.

I've traveled past this summit dozens of times, but for whatever reason I've never made the trip up. It's pretty easy - from Bouquet Canyon Road, turn onto a dirt fire road and follow it up to the ridge. Make a right onto Del Sur Road (also dirt). At the time of this writing, the dirt roads were in pretty good condition, but I think a sedan would struggle on some parts. I drove around up there a bit looking for a way up to the true summit. I parked the truck at 34.56905, -118.42011 and […]
