Re: Boy Scout activity event
Wonderful... scouts and spies... all kids must learn Morse Code at certain point of their progression. They play with it using flashlights, why not use the real thing, introduce them to CW.

Tool advice: contemporary oscilloscopes and Spectrum Analyzers
Hi, a friend wants to replace his 30+Y old stuff. I said experienced hams use Rigol stuff, which good models would you suggest that do not cost a leg to be used with modern and vintage PA/rigs?

Re: Boy Scout activity event
This sounds like a ton of fun!
How about a ham radio escape room? Make up a fictional scenario whereby the kids must assemble a radio station to call in a rescue or pass on secret spy intelligence,

Re: Apparent component swap in design and assembly of pc board v3
#ubitx-help
Mine is like yours, injecting a signal of around S3 was clearly audible anyway, that swap does not jeopardise anything.

Re: the cause for the spurs, found!
Sascha,
Have you checked the wiki and http://ubitx.net/ ?
Info in both places.
The bias at Q20 should not be about 6V. It should be more like 9V.
Reason for this is the ideal bias is about 10mA and

Re: Boy Scout activity event
This is how I got started in ham radio in 1954. We did a field trip to W8FTQ's QTH in Medina, OH, to hear his weekly schedule with his son...in SOUTH AFRICA!! The hook was set and I've been licensed

Ahh the good DP0GVN station in the Antarctica. Looks like we reach the same stations abroad.
The bands are not dead they’re just not doing SSB :)

Boy Scout activity event
I am looking for some ideas that can be used in a 30 minute window, or less, to introduce ham radio to a dozen scouts. My idea is to employ a few HTs in simplex mode, divide the the groups into 2 or 3

Re: µBITX: CAT connection
I have set mine up through the USB to work with N1MM logger Plus and it works just fine. As said before set it up as if it is an FT817 and it will do everything even the CW keying.
My uBitx is set up

Re: weak signal fun

People love to cry that the bands are dead, but do very little to make activity. Combine that with poorly built stations and folks who don't like to work for contacts or use digi modes, and thats what
