  1. SHIRO!'s first scheduled NetLink Night yielded a lot of fun — and a lot of chaos! Read all about it, check out some photos and a video, and get the details on our plans moving forward here:

  2. So, this LNB is built around a very cool channel stacking ASIC from MaxLinear, the MXL862.
    But as there is no public documentation, I cannot control it.
    So I had to resort to other measures.

  7. Wanna chat on Discord from your Saturn? Those with a DreamPi and a NetLink or XBand modem can enjoy even more functionality now that SHIRO! has added Discross to our Discord server! Guest writer Shadowmask has the details:

  8. This song has been stuck in my head for several days now thanks to a photo of Exene Cervenka and John Doe taken by Chris Stein that he posted to his BlueSky account. So now I'm passing the favor along to you all. Sorry not sorry. 😄

  9. Have any of you folks encountered thus type Soviet waveguide relay before?
    Looking for:
    A pinout for the connector
    A datasheet with the specs for driving it
    Connector type.
    This is X-band based on the waveguide dimensions.

  10. What uses would there be for 7638MHz and 7554MHz DRO oscillators?
    Not phase locked, so not super stable, don't multiply immediately to any interesting bands either, so not that usable as a marker either.
    And these have a negative supply voltage.

  11. A #homebrew, suspected #xband mixer from a scrap research device.
    Rat race hybrid in it, but only a single diode.
    And a cleverly mounted THT diode at that.
    The IF port does not look very #GHz, so I guess it is HF/VHF with this one.

  12. Huh, did not know that #Ferranti made #GHz brick oscillators.

    This might be usable as high side #xband downconverter LO or lowside for 10GHz hamband converter with L-band IF.
