DIY Radio

Published by Robert under Tech

Since upgrading my ham radio license a couple of weeks ago, I’ve been obsessed with the idea of building my own radios from scratch. Once Christine and I get back from Hawaii, this WWII foxhole radio is going to be my first project.

General Class

Published by Robert under Tech

After nine years as a Technician Class ham, I guess it was about time I upgraded my license. And since I would have to renew next year anyway (and they dropped the Morse code requirement last month), I went ahead and did it. Drove out to Manteca at the crack of dawn to spend the day studying for the General Class exam, and now I’m KF6WIA/AG. Mad props to David Coursey and all the ham crammers at the Manteca Amateur Radio Club for organizing the event.
