For a change of pace I’ve done a little operating. Can’t
always build and not use the creations.
I worked 5 stations in the 13 Colonies Special Event. Did
that for about 3 hours or so. Wished I
started earlier. Worked Italy with 5
watts using the KX3 and was happy with the 54 report. Tried to check into the Trans Provincial net
with the LBS. No luck this time. Nor did
I contact friends in Toronto either with the LBS. However using CW that mode did get thru. Hmm.
Back to listening to code again.
Christmas came early today in the mail. Package of thru hole
2N7000’s, smd’s J310’s and LM385’s along with a Nano terminal adapter. Still waiting for some larger pcb’s, copper
rivets for the other side of the pcb,(see how that works out) zvp3306 mosfets,
smd caps, rg316 and some sma connectors.
I must be gearing up for my next generation LBS rig. I haven’t really decided how I’m going to go
about it. For sure shrinking down boards and I may just go with 1 or 2 main
boards and some daughter boards as well. Things to ponder on the patio with a beer. And
that is a good idea. Out I go.
73, Peter
