Aw man, I thought it was going to be a different "R" word. :(


Going to tell future generations that this is Harry Potter. :P

Some cool #radio stuff just showed up. 👀


Got my dipole onto the 12m band while investigating power limit issues for 10m and I might just stay here for a while. :3

Still need to figure out the power issue, though. Using the braid of LL240 coax as the conductor for the loading coil worked a charm. When I was using magnet wire for the same, the turns got hot, but now I don't notice any heat. I also have stacked T200-2 cores, which don't appear to be warming up like the earlier single T200-2 core. At this point, it seems like the matching autotransformer (a single FT240-43) might be the issue, as it is still getting pretty warm. Will most likely rebuild it with stacked cores. 🤔

Even the buses where I am are electric. :3

@ToroidalCore I'm a huge fan! I've made so many toroid coils and transformers for ham radio. :D #joke


Equipping my new modded T-Deck gives +5 jank. :P #MeshCore #LoRa


Playing with reflectors for the first time. It's so cool seeing how its positioning affects the feed point impedance! :D #AmateurRadio #HamRadio #antenna

What do you all do with the clippings from pruning antennas? 🤔 #AmateurRadio #HamRadio

I propose Cascadia, perhaps also including California. :3 (Flag source)
