Chuck, That is why I mentioned it. You cut off 17ft for the CP and the rest is the antenna. Nice way to give you both and not need a feed line. ---John AC9UV

Rex is including a counterpoise. There are No-Tune sources who are expecting coax to be the counterpoise. Connecting direct to the V6 kit cuts out feed line. Sent: Wednesday, February 22, 2023 4:18

Based on feedback from Chuck, the antenna for the Sea Sprite+ with built-in No-Tune antenna coupler is designed to work with an EFHW (End Fed Half Wave) antenna.? ?The antenna included with the Sea

Daniel, I have only had the experience with the AD9850 DDS in making the VFO project. It went together well and has been a solid stable frequency source for my projects. Also in building various

John, Very cool.? I want to home brew my own VFO.? I will eventually.? I have all the parts to build multiple VFOs using Si5351A (module or chip), LCD, rotary encoder, and a microcontroller (chips

John, This procedure works exactly as shown, the smaller the screwdriver the better. Actually, I had more of an issue putting it back together than I did taking it apart (as usual!). How to open and

Rex, Just got that nifty tool. I read the instructions but getting the cylinder out to clean seems to be stuck. Not wanting to force it. How is it best to do that. I thought of a screwdriver between

Oh, yeah--Daniel--? If you haven't tried 7055 kHz, most of the ops there don't go very fast--usually more than 5WPM, but I've heard 10WPM or slower, too. You don't have to stick to 7110-ish for speed

Daniel-- Short answer: Anything your license will support. Why? When I was a Novice (Tech +, actually, but still a novice operator), I loved the 40m Novice Band. It was years later, as a General or

I did a little research. Many rock-bound CW QRP or QRPp kits come with crytals around 7.030, 7.040, or 7.110.? My Two Tinned Tunahs came with 7.110 and another I forget.? The March Buildathon and

Rex isn't kidding. I've built a few TT2 transmitters that way. Be thankful for the lip and up-top connectors. In the pic, you can see a Rex Super Tuna, an updated (aka toroid version) TT2, and an

Rex, The big three Ham manufacturers have nothing on your tuna cans!? Thanks for sharing and thanks for the history lesson! Davey - KU9L

Dave & Gangue, The new Sea Sprite+ kit will come in all sealed up in a 401 size can....with a special label. Short lesson on cans for QRPme proto boards is here:

Rex, Does the kit still use the large-size Dole can? I see in your video it is about 2" tall, but our local Walmart either had the skinnier cans or the 5-6" tall variety. I am learning about cans

Ordered and I also received my desoldering iron today with 3 spare tips. My XYL Ham is accusing all of the kit builders of putting something addicting into those kits!!!!

Gangue, I was wondering why nobody ordered an RF Probe kit from me in a long time even after all the RF Probe emails that flew around a few weeks ago. I went looking for them, as Ihave more than 1

Gangue, While Dan has been keeping you all aware of my upcoming Buildathon, I thought you might care for an update from me directly. This will be the 9th & 10th live streamed Buildathon I've done in

Daniel, I used the AD9850 DDS. I have attached pictures of the board and the circuit for the pixie. The firmware I would have to track down. I did the CWOPS Basic course a couple of years ago. It

I ordered. That weekend is only a few days before we leave FL for the weekend, We will be in IL for 2-3 weeks before we head to Colorado for the summer so worst case we will make it a buildathon with
