Hmmm. -40C degrees is not -95F, it is -40F. The scales come together there. This error didn't affect the content of the talk.

Fascinating. Thank you.

He should have said VLF, not (VOF-???).

👍👍👍👍👍👍

Hey, Well enjoyed🙌! I'm not really sure if it is the best time to ask but, I was wondering if I could help you create a better distribution by working on post-production like better storytelling through Edits, Keywords, think catchy intros and outros, or even some engaging short clips! Would love to chat if you're interested and keep creating good content:)

How am I able to hear radio TG 1336 all the way here in Rockville MD clearly ?

Would not the typical green-CRT Anritsu or Hameg units, or something like a Tektronix 7L... plugin or 49x, or similar units that have been sold secondhand for 800 bucks -ish prices for a long time, be the closer comparison?

I think encryption is ok for the most part but I still wanna see transparency too

Simplex would Also be known as talk around

Do they have any Old equipment at the shop they wanna get rid of ?

What you all do with the equipment they remove

So is most of HT,s and mobile units still phase 1 ?

A sdr based scanner work's good

I had a uniden scanner the older one was deaf here in Montgomery county MD but would never shut up in FF and PW Co

Easy to look up the licensee on radio reference

I think I seen TG 1001 and 1311 and others in the 5 digit numbers too

Makes sense about the illegal carrier knocking down the system or site

Yes metro had that cellular redistribution system

I can actually hear right now FF all the way up here in Rockville MD

I still wanna Learn how to really optimize my radio and yes I can make it so it won't affiliate in the PC configure 2.18.6

Yes a Apx and xts can be setup as a nas scanner

Yea I had to create a conventional code plug for my radio and I use radio wide scan mode

The encryption sounds garbled

I can see the IDs of the units on my EF Johnson radio and the TG too it's pretty cool my EF Johnson radio is setup as a Nas scanner works ok but I would love to know how I can get it to actually track trunks it's a P1 radio but I can still hear quite a bit

I have a EF Johnson 5100 es model 3 and I can fpp it and I'm able to hear most stuff by programming the control channels from RR why is that ?

Great Fun! Great food! Great People.

Great fun.

Great video. 73 KB3NG

Really awesome video! I have done some PCB hand dremmeling in the past, but I have not used the Manhattan construction technique. I'm surprised this is able to work so well for RF stuff considering how large it is, and all of the component leads. It makes me want to make similar systems. It could be a fun way to construct a modular synthesizer or something

Joe Carcia is a good guy. I knew him in Hartofrd when we were all a lot younger.

Spent the afternoon today at a park attempting to participate in the Virginia QSO Party as a mobile, at 2,400 ft above sea level. Back home with a log full of 7 contacts. Seven contacts from 1:30 PM to 6:30 PM. As with most contests, really a playground for the big guys. I have neither amplifier, nor 100 foot tower, nor 80 meter capability, nor dipole higher than 23 feet-so… not really fun. Unless you’re in the six-figure-points-total crowd, it’s like entering the Indianapolis 500, in your Chevy Nova. Somebody suggested “go for a new personal best… try to decrease your time for 4 laps… then go home.” Unless you’re a fanatic, lots of other things you can do on a spring Saturday are more fun. Preceding just MY story-probably not YOURS-but I’m sticking to it.

Thanks for the video. I learned a lot. I don’t have a 3D printer but I really liked the wire winder antenna holder combination. It makes the antenna setup and breakdown so much easier! 73 George KB3WAQ

Excellent presentation. I'm curious, you used 18awg copper magnet wire, do you know if 16awg could be used with an FT240-43 transformer? I know it might be a little stiffer to wind but might it otherwise work?

Forgot to mention - the audio output on the tinySA makes it a WB receiver, just like SDR, with the waterfall display as well.

I use a $15 noise source with the tinySA to characterize filters. Works great!

Good information. Note every furnance is the same however so one has to really consult the proper documentation and resources. Here you are not allowed to do any work or modifications to a furnance/AC. Warrenty, home insurance and gas company fines or void insurance. Not something we can do here.

I bought the tinySA Ultra ... even better

Well done. Going to recommend this video to my clubs. Thank you.

Tinysa is an amazing instrument 😊

This is a interesting topic John. What I am wondering is could this antenna somehow be used for a Free to the Air TV ?? Please drop a line on what you think Sir.

Nice project. Far too many inserted ads (every 5 minutes)

great presentation but also great AV production - loved the consistently good audio and the camera skills. Thanks for all the references, too.

What would the effects on performance be if you modified this using PVC of greater diameter, effectively shrinking the length even more.? Just thought a long stealthy antenna could be built by wrapping copper tape directly around a wooden telephone pole 12 inches or so in diameter.

Really nice ! I have a bunch of that stuff here also ! Thank You for the video ! KE6QK

Liked and Subscribed ! Thank you so much for this content!

As a listening only station, spotting is my only tool. I've already spotted 5 continents. Only Antartica is missing!

Thanks for uploading this video. Very useful explanations and has given me some great info. Cheers and 73 from VK

What type and gauge antenna wire would you recommend (QRP)?
