10FT8R PCB

Jason Woodman M0NYW has been working on a PCB for the 10FT8R. I have still
to check the layout, but it looks easy to make. If you can find a low cost source of 14.037MHz crystals then the inductor to pull the crystal is
probably not needed. As soon as I have checked the layout I shall share it here.

Day off?

As there was a risk of storms today, I decided (for now at least) not to go
on the air. At the moment, storms are still a long way away.

4m (70MHz)

Posted: 07 Aug 2021 05:47 AM PDT http://g3xbm-qrp.blogspot.com/2021/08/4m-70mhz.html

It is some years since I have been on 4m. There are now far more countries
on the band many within Es range. The last time I was on the band I used a homemade transverter. This design was in GQRP SPRAT.
