Tumd cw keys, 49 bucks in Amazon, very solid cnc aluminum, magnetic returns, precise, almost same size with Bamatech TP-III and enjoy to operate, even when I set it tight. Love it 👍 Nice #cw for #POTA. Can't beat it for the price and feel. #QRP #hamradio
Hustler 6BTV plus 17m mod project is done. 24 radials were installed so far. Signals in all bands covered are great to various DX including EU, South Pacific and Japan. It is worth the pain installing the radials 😅 #hamradio #cw
Now this #ELECRAFTK1 lights up. Thanks to the cheap backlight mod from #w1sfr on his blog ....yes I saw bleeds on the sides but I don't mind. I need also some lights on those buttons anyway 😃. Made of 4 small 3v leds in connected in series #cw #hamradio #qrp #POTA
I decided going vertical with Hustler 7BTV (6BTV plus 17m) and got rid of my EFHW. Result was amazing! First contact on 10m to Brazil #PY3PZ then RBN in Canary Island and Namibia, Africa on 17m. I haven't put any radials yet, that's next project. #hamradio #cw #morsecode
Got my hand on a beautiful used #ElecraftK1 2 bands #cw #qrp 20m and 15m loaded with ATU, NB & internal batt option for a good deal. Also got a 40m and 20m filter board for add'l bands. Selective and very nice sounding receiver. Perfect for #POTA #hamradio #morsecode
This little Venus SW-3B a #cw #qrp radio arrived today from #NAQCC swap, but the radio doesn't have a flexible memory cw keyer. So I hacked it using ultra picokeyer from #hamgadgets 😊and whoala..it's working flawlessly. Now, it is ready for my next #POTA activation #hamradio
OMY to Houston around 12UTC today, I tried to work @n4jaw.bsky.social on 7.0555Mhz on his #cw #POTA, but got loud S-7 SSB background. When I flipped to LSB, look what I got, the 40m Indonesia National Net on 7.055 Mhz. OMG 😲 really? On my FT-891 & #ATAS 120A? #orari #hamradio
Recently acquired an #FX4CR, but found out no cw memory keyers in it. Well, no problem, an ultra pico keyer from #hamgadgets will do the trick (free from a friend who doesn't know how to use it 😁). Now my new radio is ready for my next #cw #qrp #POTA activation. #hamradio
My project replacing the old Cushcraft A3S Tribander with #Mosley Mini 33A Tribander (14, 21 & 28Mhz) and #Momobeam 3 6P (50Mhz) is done. Now I got 2 beam in 1 push up tower from #Spiderbeam Aluminum 10HD 33ft with #Yaesu G-450 on the bottom. I AM A HAPPY HAM 😁
Trying out a new to me LNR #MTR4B.V2 on #K1USN #SST today. This tiny gorgeous red #qrp #cw only radio is so quiet, but when a signal is present...boom! wow!..so clear! 9 contacts coast to coast in 20 minutes with only 5 full #qrp gallons. Using EFHW-4010 at 40ft. 👍 #hamradio
Taking my new LNR #MTR3B.V4 Currahee #cw #qrp radio. Tiny but mighty. Love it!! Low noise floor. I enjoyed my #POTA in US-2996 today for hours with no fatigue and had over 60 qso with only full 5w qrp gallons. Pairing it with Par Endfedz Trail Friendly by the lake. #HAMRADIO
Got it, thank you, Chris.
OK. Please send me email as listed on QRZ.
I am puting my #QCXMINI 20m version on sale. It is QRPLab assembled with AGC and TXCO installed. Based on the test, it put up 6.7 on 12v and 7.1w on 13.8v. Power cable and homebrew CAT cable included. US CONUS shipped only please. DM me if interested.
What toilet stuff got to do with #hamradio antenna? 😝 well, I made a drive-on support for my 33ft #sotabeams mini pole from a 3" toilet flange, 2ft 3" pvc, screws & a piece of wood. The pole suports my #packtenna random wire 9:1 . #cw #POTA #qrp see toilet stuff works!!
I don't know why I keep coming back to #yaesu #FT-891 just got my 3rd after trying out similar models like FT-100D and FT-857D. 891 is really nice radio and the best hands down. 👍
Speachless...that someone that I didn't know, just give me this radio for free. TU #K1CHM for you kindness! #blessed #yaesu #FT8800 #hamradio
Yes. This is the KING in Yaesu lineup. 👍 The best receiver in ham radio industry.
BEHOLD, THA NEW #KING IS HERE!!!
#Yaesu #FTDX101MP
It is considered #qrp, right?
(well, I am running barefoot @ 200watts only, no amp!) 😂🤣😅
#cw #hamradio #morsecode #POTA
#morsecode #cw hf mobile, anyone?
oh wait.... yes, it's on #ElectricVehicles using #yaesu #ATAS 120A antenna. Hunted #WO4O this morning on #POTA on my way to Houston.
HF Mobile on Tesla M3, really?? Yes. Not at stop, but real mobile! I think must be analog HF radio, not SDR based. Not working with IC-705. Using #yaesu FT-100D and mini hamstick. #cw #hamradio #qrp #ssb #POTA
Yeah, that was a very bad condition, qsb and a LID start calling cq on your freq. Well, next time, my friend 😀
Under high wind advisory, my #slidewinder antenna was bending, but that didn't hold me to complete #cw #qrp #POTA activation at US-2996 this afternoon while picking up 2 Japan DX stations #7N1RFE and #JA9KRO on 15m. TU all, that was fun!😀 #KX3 #hamradio
Yap. SWR is flat 1.1. See my other tweet on this antenna testing for swr sweep.
Yes. He got me on 20m and 15m today. Nice guy 👍😀
It works!! Pairing my $22 vertical whip from Aliexpress with #icom IC-705 for #cw #qrp #hamradio #POTA activation on US-2996. Coast 2 coast, plus Japan #JH1MXV (15m) and Alaska #AL7KC (20&15m). Met #K5MEC on site before his own POTA.
Typo!! should be JH1MXV.
