    A bit of frustrating start…

    I’ve watched a lot of POTA videos and I see guys with really modest equipment/antennas setting up and, shazam, dozens of contacts in an hour or two. Yeah, that’s not happening for me. I’ve tried to activate a couple of parks four or five times and while I’ve made contacts, I’m definitely the...

    Learning CW…

    I am 100% on of those guys that said I was never gonna learn code. I’ve tried the portable code players in the past, used some very basic online tools, and it all went in one ear and out the other. Now that I don’t *need* to pass a code test to get a license, I found myself poking around on...

    How do you know which way to point the microwave antenna?

    Believe me, there are folks that get paid a lot of money to figure this stuff out... I'm basically doing it on the back of a napkin (in Excel) and will have to learn a bit once the radio gets here. Here's a handy spreadsheet that I put together to help me with the azimuth and change (+/-) in...
