Hello, Antuino!
Having just come back from my first Four Days in May, hosted by QRP-ARCI, I have a lot to talk about. My first FDIM really exceeded my expectations; true, the Dayton Hamvention is an impressive event, but the activities and … Continue reading

Goodbye, old Paint
I can’t believe that I haven’t made a post since the middle of August. The latter part of summer was absorbed by major family events, and the time just evaporated. Now as winter is approaching, and things have settled down … Continue reading
T-R Time Machine
This past January, I became aware of a new event celebrating the vintage rigs popular in the 50’s, 60’s and 70’s, the Novice Rig Roundup. I love the tube rigs from that era, and absolutely had to put together a … Continue reading

The other display.
Back in March, around the time I had received my SI5351 breakout board kit from EtherKit, I ordered a new Arduino board to use with it. I knew I would need some kind of display, but to date had not … Continue reading

More software, less radio.
My recent foray into the world of software defined radio, the SI5351 based 3 Band VFO (3BVFO), has been a fun project so far, but I have to observe that since it is mostly software, it is mostly acting like … Continue reading

Not a tube project, version 1.1
This is just a brief update to last week’s post about the 3 band VFO sketch for the Si5351 breakout board and Arduino. Software never stands still…. Working with Joel Caulkins, KB6QVI, who generously expressed an interest in the sketch … Continue reading
Definitely not a tube project.
Lately I have been having lots of fun working on a variety of different bench projects, all involving very different technologies, switching between them as parts arrive and time allows. I have been experimenting with space charge tubes, with the … Continue reading

Can I hear you now?
Almost immediately after finishing the two-tube transmitter last spring, I began to think “Gee, wouldn’t it be great to build a receiver from scratch, so I could have an entirely homebrew station?” Apparently this kind of self-destructive thinking is a … Continue reading
