Re: Raspberry Pi 4 Course
I have a R-PI3+ built up as laptop and running Raspbian on a 64GB uSD.
I call it my steampunk craptop (laptop based on Pi and battery powered).
Its been fairly easy to take most anything that runs

Re: Cw encoder and decoder sleeping in your drawers
Thanks Vojtech for pointing out KD1JV design but the idea I have in mind is to recover parts or modules of old cellphones to be reporposed for ham cw encode and decode.
Today I dont know enough of

Re: Alternatives to metal shear
I handle a lot of metal over the years and a few tricks.
Improvised brake, two pieces of steel angle iron and the material to be cut
between them and score along the edge with a really sharp

Re: Alternatives to metal shear
Hi guys, New to the group. You can use a carbide tipped Formica scoring tool you will never wear it out, just use a straight edge and pull it to you (clamp straight edge to part and table) 73

Re: powering an SWR meter from transceiver output
Hi Juanjo,
Thanks for your interest.
The project will be published completely on github. The firmware is just a working sketch as of now, and there is no printed board. I am in the process of

Cw encoder and decoder sleeping in your drawers
A lot of resources are wasted on tons of out of fashion? but still good cell phones!!?
Why not rescue the text mode together with the key board and the lcd display for use as CW keyer

Re: powering an SWR meter from transceiver output
Hi Vojtek,
Would love to see the full document write up for the project. My guess is
you are using a resistive absortion bridge for direct/reverse wave sampling
and then a small microcontroller but I

Re: powering an SWR meter from transceiver output
I have a prototype working, see the attached photos showing the infinite SWR with open antenna terminals by lighting up the last LED, and showing a SWR roughly 1:1.1 with a 50 Ohm load. The bridge is

Re: powering an SWR meter from transceiver output
Unless you expect your antenna impedance to change radically while you are transmitting, there is no need to continue monitoring your SWR once you have properly adjusted your antenna tuner.? There is

Re: powering an SWR meter from transceiver output
There are two reasons to try it: First, it is challenge therefore fun. Second, it shall be an external box and it is great to not to worry about flat batteries.

Re: powering an SWR meter from transceiver output
The suggested SWR meter shall draw roughly 1.5mA using a 1:2 or 1:3 transformer from the transceiver. Using a 1:2 transformer, with the assumption that only the positive polarity peak will be
