00:00:37.359 --> 00:00:41.880
<v Speaker 1>here early. Some good chat going on before for the

10
00:00:41.920 --> 00:00:45.399
<v Speaker 1>stream went live, so thank you for that. And I

11
00:00:45.479 --> 00:00:48.840
<v Speaker 1>caught the last little bit of Frank's video. He's got

12
00:00:49.000 --> 00:00:51.880
<v Speaker 1>rob on over there, and I guess they're talking about

13
00:00:51.880 --> 00:00:58.840
<v Speaker 1>the fram too satellite that recently went up, and I

14
00:00:58.840 --> 00:01:00.640
<v Speaker 1>don't know. I haven't really been keep up with that.

15
00:01:01.240 --> 00:01:03.359
<v Speaker 1>I talked to those guys the Frame. I talked to

16
00:01:03.399 --> 00:01:07.159
<v Speaker 1>amsat and the Aris guys briefly at Hamcasion in February,

17
00:01:07.480 --> 00:01:08.920
<v Speaker 1>so I know what the FRAM two is. I know

18
00:01:08.959 --> 00:01:11.159
<v Speaker 1>what they're doing with it. They're gonna do an SSTV

19
00:01:11.319 --> 00:01:15.120
<v Speaker 1>thing upcoming. I think if that hadn't passed yet, I

20
00:01:15.120 --> 00:01:17.400
<v Speaker 1>don't remember. I don't remember if that's passed yet or

21
00:01:19.920 --> 00:01:21.719
<v Speaker 1>I don't I remember. I don't remember what the dates

22
00:01:21.719 --> 00:01:24.719
<v Speaker 1>on it are, but it should be a pretty cool

23
00:01:26.239 --> 00:01:29.840
<v Speaker 1>effort for amateur radio and space amateur radio satellites. So

24
00:01:30.079 --> 00:01:34.920
<v Speaker 1>if you are into that sort of thing, I would uh,

25
00:01:34.959 --> 00:01:37.159
<v Speaker 1>I would suggest going and checking that out. Frank's got

26
00:01:37.200 --> 00:01:40.280
<v Speaker 1>several videos on it and it's pretty cool to see

27
00:01:40.280 --> 00:01:41.719
<v Speaker 1>what it's doing. I need to try to get some

28
00:01:42.359 --> 00:01:47.719
<v Speaker 1>SSTV stuff going here. I've got MMSSTV installed back here,

29
00:01:47.959 --> 00:01:52.560
<v Speaker 1>some listening a couple of weeks ago, and SSTV is done.

30
00:01:52.640 --> 00:01:54.719
<v Speaker 1>That's why. Okay, yeah, that's I knew they were doing

31
00:01:54.760 --> 00:01:58.920
<v Speaker 1>an after action report, but I don't know. I haven't been.

32
00:01:58.959 --> 00:02:01.480
<v Speaker 1>Like I said, I haven't been keeping up with it. Glenn,

33
00:02:01.519 --> 00:02:04.359
<v Speaker 1>thank you for the super chat. Appreciate you being here tonight. Buddy.

34
00:02:07.920 --> 00:02:12.759
<v Speaker 1>Let's see the ISS has SSTV. Now, yeah, that's gonna

35
00:02:12.759 --> 00:02:15.919
<v Speaker 1>be a permanent thing. The ISS having SSTV is going

36
00:02:15.960 --> 00:02:18.280
<v Speaker 1>to be a permanent thing, which I was I was

37
00:02:18.319 --> 00:02:22.199
<v Speaker 1>hearing about that as well. So good deal. Thanks guys

38
00:02:22.199 --> 00:02:28.919
<v Speaker 1>for being here. Appreciate everyone's willingness to spend your Sunday

39
00:02:29.080 --> 00:02:32.960
<v Speaker 1>night with me. So Frank, I assume he's going to

40
00:02:33.039 --> 00:02:35.560
<v Speaker 1>join here in a minute, but until he gets here,

41
00:02:36.639 --> 00:02:41.319
<v Speaker 1>see that, see that camera camera freaks out sometimes. These

42
00:02:41.319 --> 00:02:43.800
<v Speaker 1>Sonys have really fast focusing. But man, I don't know,

43
00:02:44.240 --> 00:02:46.280
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I'm not convinced I like it better

44
00:02:46.319 --> 00:02:48.680
<v Speaker 1>than my canon. I might be going back to canon soon,

45
00:02:48.719 --> 00:02:52.360
<v Speaker 1>we'll see. But okay, So first of all, I want

46
00:02:52.360 --> 00:02:55.639
<v Speaker 1>to a couple of quick things, real fast before we

47
00:02:55.680 --> 00:03:00.759
<v Speaker 1>get started here. I am working on. I say I'm

48
00:03:00.800 --> 00:03:04.479
<v Speaker 1>working on. I'm leading the effort. I got a developer

49
00:03:04.520 --> 00:03:08.879
<v Speaker 1>working for me and making some major updates to my

50
00:03:08.919 --> 00:03:12.680
<v Speaker 1>website shop dot Hamradio two dot com or grape vineanmateur

51
00:03:12.800 --> 00:03:15.159
<v Speaker 1>radio dot com. This is not finished yet. We're not

52
00:03:15.199 --> 00:03:19.439
<v Speaker 1>finished with this yet, so let me make that a

53
00:03:19.439 --> 00:03:23.039
<v Speaker 1>bit smaller T shirts and whatnot. Got a new T

57
00:03:34.000 --> 00:03:38.199
<v Speaker 1>That's all there. But there you might see some you

58
00:03:38.280 --> 00:03:41.319
<v Speaker 1>might see some hiccups. It might come down for a

59
00:03:41.319 --> 00:03:43.360
<v Speaker 1>little bit overnight, it might go back up again. But

60
00:03:43.439 --> 00:03:46.199
<v Speaker 1>there are updates being made to this site right now,

61

82
00:04:54.279 --> 00:04:58.360
<v Speaker 1>and this is something that I wanted to mention last week.

<v Speaker 1>You go? Yeah, Well that's going on.

117
00:06:42.439 --> 00:06:45.000
<v Speaker 2>Doing all right, man, doing all right. I had a

118
00:06:45.040 --> 00:06:48.800
<v Speaker 2>great weekend. I kind of took the weekend off from

119
00:06:48.839 --> 00:06:54.920
<v Speaker 2>ham Radio and relax. However, that being said, Friday morning,

120
00:06:55.000 --> 00:06:59.879
<v Speaker 2>I did film the complete unpacking of my new SAT

121
00:07:00.160 --> 00:07:05.319
<v Speaker 2>like kit and it is complete and working, fully functional.

122
00:07:05.600 --> 00:07:07.279
<v Speaker 2>Unlike Jason's camera is freaking out.

123
00:07:08.319 --> 00:07:09.920
<v Speaker 1>I know it. Yeah, that's what I get for using

124
00:07:09.959 --> 00:07:11.399
<v Speaker 1>a Sony. I got to go back to Cannon.

125
00:07:12.120 --> 00:07:14.879
<v Speaker 2>Well, isn't that your canon was having the battery issues?

126
00:07:16.439 --> 00:07:18.680
<v Speaker 1>Uh no, it was, well one of the well, I've

127
00:07:18.720 --> 00:07:21.199
<v Speaker 1>got like four Cannon cameras, okay, so one of them

128
00:07:21.240 --> 00:07:24.120
<v Speaker 1>was having a re it was rebooting itself for no reason,

129
00:07:24.199 --> 00:07:27.079
<v Speaker 1>and that that's actually my newest one, sadly geez.

130
00:07:27.319 --> 00:07:32.240
<v Speaker 2>But so yeah, I'm looking at getting some new cameras.

131
00:07:32.600 --> 00:07:35.759
<v Speaker 2>I'm still doing it cheap ish, a couple of new

132
00:07:35.759 --> 00:07:40.240
<v Speaker 2>cameras around. And the mic and the mic is I'm

133
00:07:40.319 --> 00:07:41.600
<v Speaker 2>trying to figure out what i want to do with

134
00:07:41.600 --> 00:07:44.319
<v Speaker 2>the mic. I'm thinking a shotgun mic because I hate

135
00:07:45.439 --> 00:07:49.959
<v Speaker 2>personally having a mic right here as you're talking, and

136
00:07:49.959 --> 00:07:52.560
<v Speaker 2>and half my mouth is either covered or partially or

137
00:07:52.600 --> 00:07:55.240
<v Speaker 2>it's just right there. So I was thinking about a

138
00:07:55.279 --> 00:07:57.959
<v Speaker 2>shotgun mic and maybe something I can use when I

139
00:07:58.000 --> 00:08:00.439
<v Speaker 2>am out in the field and double that that be

140
00:08:00.519 --> 00:08:02.680
<v Speaker 2>kind of cool. I don't know, but that's that's thoughts

141
00:08:02.680 --> 00:08:05.480
<v Speaker 2>for later. I was talking about Satellite Kid, which I

142
00:08:05.519 --> 00:08:08.639
<v Speaker 2>did just get done finishing showing on the live stream

143
00:08:08.680 --> 00:08:12.279
<v Speaker 2>and the video coming up later this month, about breaking

144
00:08:12.319 --> 00:08:17.879
<v Speaker 2>this down. It's working, Jason, It's worked good. Good, have

145
00:08:18.399 --> 00:08:19.319
<v Speaker 2>contact yet.

146
00:08:19.199 --> 00:08:23.759
<v Speaker 1>But good, well, well still good.

147
00:08:24.160 --> 00:08:26.600
<v Speaker 2>I need I need time. I tried to do it,

148
00:08:26.680 --> 00:08:31.399
<v Speaker 2>but it was just the timings for the satellite passes

149
00:08:31.399 --> 00:08:36.360
<v Speaker 2>didn't work out. And okay, this is how I'm gonna

150
00:08:36.399 --> 00:08:40.080
<v Speaker 2>say this, all right, say it. This weekend I played nerd.

151
00:08:40.879 --> 00:08:43.360
<v Speaker 2>My my nerd card came out. I went to the

152
00:08:43.759 --> 00:08:45.639
<v Speaker 2>Scarborough fayir of the Renaissance Festival.

153
00:08:46.799 --> 00:08:51.399
<v Speaker 1>However, told me to double down on this.

154
00:08:52.200 --> 00:08:57.600
<v Speaker 2>I had my HT. I had my HT on side too.

155
00:08:58.600 --> 00:09:05.000
<v Speaker 1>And did you make content with anyone.

156
00:09:03.000 --> 00:09:04.919
<v Speaker 2>In the parking line? And a couple of times we

157
00:09:04.960 --> 00:09:07.840
<v Speaker 2>were resting. However, one time I was sitting in the

158
00:09:07.919 --> 00:09:10.600
<v Speaker 2>bookshop and it was quiet, and people were looking at

159
00:09:10.639 --> 00:09:12.320
<v Speaker 2>books and I'm trying to be quiet and I hear

160
00:09:13.759 --> 00:09:18.120
<v Speaker 2>I forgot the call signed KG. It's like no way,

161
00:09:18.320 --> 00:09:20.080
<v Speaker 2>and I pulled it out. I was like, KG five

162
00:09:20.320 --> 00:09:23.279
<v Speaker 2>h Jay, what's going on? I'm overheat the Resaissance Vestival.

163
00:09:23.360 --> 00:09:26.759
<v Speaker 2>I'm dressed up in garb and talking on a radio.

164
00:09:26.799 --> 00:09:31.080
<v Speaker 2>I don't think you're getting nerdier than this. The female

165
00:09:31.120 --> 00:09:33.679
<v Speaker 2>repellent is very active right now. What's up man?

166
00:09:34.639 --> 00:09:35.879
<v Speaker 1>No doubt, no doubt.

167
00:09:36.919 --> 00:09:40.159
<v Speaker 2>He was also there at the festival and broke away

168
00:09:40.240 --> 00:09:42.480
<v Speaker 2>from his family to want to go to the car

169
00:09:42.519 --> 00:09:45.960
<v Speaker 2>and play radio for a bit, and we had a

170
00:09:46.519 --> 00:09:50.399
<v Speaker 2>find you. So when I was inside h and at

171
00:09:50.399 --> 00:09:53.440
<v Speaker 2>that book, out of all the places, the places that

172
00:09:53.639 --> 00:09:56.559
<v Speaker 2>everyone's waking, be quiet and read, and I'm there yelling

173
00:09:56.559 --> 00:09:57.600
<v Speaker 2>at the radio being me.

174
00:09:58.919 --> 00:10:02.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, perfect, there you go, there you go. Good. Well,

175
00:10:02.360 --> 00:10:03.039
<v Speaker 1>I'm glad you had five.

176
00:10:03.120 --> 00:10:05.080
<v Speaker 2>I guess I should have wrote down the contact and

177
00:10:05.120 --> 00:10:08.200
<v Speaker 2>submitted my name for your right simplex.

178
00:10:08.559 --> 00:10:11.679
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. So I got this, So I say, in a

179
00:10:11.720 --> 00:10:14.960
<v Speaker 1>second ago, I know that people were talking about I

180
00:10:15.039 --> 00:10:17.080
<v Speaker 1>kind of got distracted. I know that people were talking

181
00:10:17.080 --> 00:10:21.559
<v Speaker 1>about the repeater challenge. So March is the last month

182
00:10:21.600 --> 00:10:23.759
<v Speaker 1>of the Repeater Challenge, and I didn't announce the winner

183
00:10:26.159 --> 00:10:29.440
<v Speaker 1>last weekend. So I have a winner, and it is

184
00:10:30.159 --> 00:10:33.600
<v Speaker 1>k E E O d Y Chris. If we look

185
00:10:33.639 --> 00:10:37.279
<v Speaker 1>over here, he says, he titled his email to me

186
00:10:37.519 --> 00:10:40.120
<v Speaker 1>Repeater Challenge list. I put in some work, and he

187
00:10:40.159 --> 00:10:43.360
<v Speaker 1>had quite a few things, almost every day going down

188
00:10:43.399 --> 00:10:49.919
<v Speaker 1>here two meter for forty all of these no contacts

189
00:10:49.960 --> 00:10:52.919
<v Speaker 1>that day. That's okay, A net that he had forty

190
00:10:52.919 --> 00:10:56.080
<v Speaker 1>two check ins he was a part of. And he

191
00:10:56.120 --> 00:10:58.679
<v Speaker 1>got on three twenty three and activated Spruce Knob with

192
00:11:00.600 --> 00:11:04.559
<v Speaker 1>two eight five on a machine and spoke with some

193
00:11:04.600 --> 00:11:08.320
<v Speaker 1>guys that I talk in great. Well, I activated Spruce No, okay,

194
00:11:09.080 --> 00:11:12.200
<v Speaker 1>I guess not PODA. You can't activate PODA on a repeater.

195
00:11:12.279 --> 00:11:14.399
<v Speaker 1>But you got You went to Spruce Nob in West

196
00:11:14.480 --> 00:11:16.559
<v Speaker 1>Virginia and got on the repeater. So that's good as

197
00:11:16.600 --> 00:11:19.320
<v Speaker 1>it is a repeater challenge, so that's great. So Chris

198
00:11:19.720 --> 00:11:22.679
<v Speaker 1>k E once again k E eight od y repeater

199
00:11:22.759 --> 00:11:27.080
<v Speaker 1>Challenge for March of twenty twenty five, and that's probably

200
00:11:27.120 --> 00:11:28.639
<v Speaker 1>gonna do it. That's I think I'm gonna shut the

201
00:11:28.679 --> 00:11:31.240
<v Speaker 1>repeater challenge down simply because I would like to keep

202
00:11:31.240 --> 00:11:36.879
<v Speaker 1>it going. And oh, yeah he's in that there is

203
00:11:37.240 --> 00:11:39.039
<v Speaker 1>k E eight od y Ham Dad there he is

204
00:11:39.120 --> 00:11:43.120
<v Speaker 1>right there. Yeah, congrats, dude. I'd like to keep the

205
00:11:43.159 --> 00:11:45.120
<v Speaker 1>repeater challenge going, but I can't do it and the

206
00:11:45.279 --> 00:11:48.120
<v Speaker 1>HF giveaways that I'm doing at the same time because

207
00:11:48.159 --> 00:11:52.000
<v Speaker 1>of financial reasons. So maybe we'll spin that up back

208
00:11:52.039 --> 00:11:55.519
<v Speaker 1>up again later maybe I don't know, but we'll see.

209
00:11:55.559 --> 00:12:00.320
<v Speaker 1>We'll see what happens with that. But that's it. Yeah,

210
00:12:00.320 --> 00:12:01.960
<v Speaker 1>So where I got a couple of emails this week

211
00:12:02.000 --> 00:12:03.720
<v Speaker 1>saying is it still going for April And the answer

212
00:12:03.759 --> 00:12:05.039
<v Speaker 1>is no, No, I'm not going to do it for

213
00:12:05.080 --> 00:12:07.679
<v Speaker 1>April again. I might do it a little bit later on,

214
00:12:08.399 --> 00:12:10.120
<v Speaker 1>but I don't. I haven't decided a hundred percent on

215
00:12:10.159 --> 00:12:13.279
<v Speaker 1>that yet. So thank you to everybody who participated. Still

216
00:12:13.279 --> 00:12:15.159
<v Speaker 1>go out and kee up your repeaters every day. You

217
00:12:15.159 --> 00:12:17.639
<v Speaker 1>don't have to worry about winning a radio for me

218
00:12:17.799 --> 00:12:19.600
<v Speaker 1>or anybody else. But still go out and kee up

219
00:12:19.639 --> 00:12:23.039
<v Speaker 1>your repeaters every day. What's sad trying to trying to

220
00:12:23.080 --> 00:12:23.320
<v Speaker 1>do that.

221
00:12:23.679 --> 00:12:27.919
<v Speaker 2>Some of the most active repeaters around, but recently they've

222
00:12:28.000 --> 00:12:31.000
<v Speaker 2>just been going quiet. I've been getting on and listening

223
00:12:31.000 --> 00:12:33.879
<v Speaker 2>to the radio more and more in the mornings and

224
00:12:34.159 --> 00:12:37.039
<v Speaker 2>it's just where are y'all? Where did they? Right?

225
00:12:37.360 --> 00:12:39.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I had a good conversation with someone on the

226
00:12:39.440 --> 00:12:41.360
<v Speaker 1>roster and two meter repeater the other day coming back

227
00:12:41.360 --> 00:12:45.360
<v Speaker 1>from the hunting Lees. I tried. I tried the the

228
00:12:45.480 --> 00:12:49.840
<v Speaker 1>w f ARC repeater out there that Rob monitors and I.

229
00:12:50.200 --> 00:12:51.440
<v Speaker 1>But I think it was during the day when he

230
00:12:51.480 --> 00:12:53.720
<v Speaker 1>was probably at his office, so I'm assuming that he

231
00:12:53.840 --> 00:12:57.279
<v Speaker 1>wasn't monitoring from his office. But I try to key

232
00:12:57.320 --> 00:13:00.519
<v Speaker 1>up that repeater every time I drive north. But but

233
00:13:00.559 --> 00:13:02.559
<v Speaker 1>I did have a good conversation on the Roster repeater,

234
00:13:02.559 --> 00:13:04.120
<v Speaker 1>which is a very far reaching repeater.

235
00:13:04.759 --> 00:13:07.519
<v Speaker 2>Oh, I kind of want to blame COVID on this one.

236
00:13:07.799 --> 00:13:11.200
<v Speaker 2>COVID did open up a lot of doors some amateur radio,

237
00:13:11.879 --> 00:13:16.480
<v Speaker 2>but I think it's killed the commute drivetime talking groups. Yes, yeah,

238
00:13:16.840 --> 00:13:19.360
<v Speaker 2>And that's what I want to blame on COVID, because

239
00:13:19.399 --> 00:13:23.720
<v Speaker 2>before COVID there was healthy talk groups on amateur radio

240
00:13:23.759 --> 00:13:26.320
<v Speaker 2>repeaters in the Dallas area. There were a number of them,

241
00:13:26.720 --> 00:13:30.960
<v Speaker 2>like always guys going And since then, I'm like, where

242
00:13:31.000 --> 00:13:31.200
<v Speaker 2>are you?

243
00:13:31.679 --> 00:13:35.919
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I missed the fun ed AC three I k

244
00:13:36.120 --> 00:13:39.080
<v Speaker 1>ask is the missus celebrating on Tuesday now that busy

245
00:13:39.120 --> 00:13:39.720
<v Speaker 1>season is over?

246
00:13:39.879 --> 00:13:40.240
<v Speaker 3>Lol.

247
00:13:40.639 --> 00:13:44.919
<v Speaker 1>Actually that's a common misconception. That's a common misconception because

248
00:13:45.000 --> 00:13:52.200
<v Speaker 1>she is a corporate CPA, and corporations don't have the

249
00:13:52.240 --> 00:13:55.679
<v Speaker 1>April fifteenth deadline. She doesn't do personal taxes, so the

250
00:13:55.679 --> 00:13:58.519
<v Speaker 1>April fifteenth deadline for her job is basically a romant.

251
00:13:58.559 --> 00:14:02.080
<v Speaker 1>She does our taxes and she does my business taxes,

252
00:14:02.120 --> 00:14:04.679
<v Speaker 1>and that's always that sometimes can be a challenge, but

253
00:14:04.759 --> 00:14:08.440
<v Speaker 1>her job has nothing to do with April fifteenth at all. Plus,

254
00:14:08.480 --> 00:14:11.279
<v Speaker 1>she doesn't really do tax work. She does light kind

255
00:14:11.279 --> 00:14:13.720
<v Speaker 1>of exchange work. She does a specialty thing, and their

256
00:14:13.720 --> 00:14:16.679
<v Speaker 1>busy season is actually January and February, so she's passed

257
00:14:16.720 --> 00:14:20.200
<v Speaker 1>that busy season. But but yeah, the April fifteenth deadline

258
00:14:20.200 --> 00:14:22.480
<v Speaker 1>doesn't really mean anything to her. So but she gets

259
00:14:22.480 --> 00:14:24.799
<v Speaker 1>asked that question every year, So are you are you

260
00:14:24.840 --> 00:14:27.320
<v Speaker 1>gonna take a break or She's like, now, my busy

261
00:14:27.360 --> 00:14:30.279
<v Speaker 1>season two months ago, but it'll start up again in

262
00:14:30.279 --> 00:14:35.120
<v Speaker 1>like April or like or there's the quarterly right, yeah,

263
00:14:35.200 --> 00:14:39.519
<v Speaker 1>the quarterly quarterly stuff for corporations and all that kind

264
00:14:39.559 --> 00:14:45.919
<v Speaker 1>of stuff. But whatever, but that is that's what I said. Well,

265
00:14:46.320 --> 00:14:47.639
<v Speaker 1>I saw him in the chat. What do you say?

266
00:14:47.720 --> 00:14:49.919
<v Speaker 2>He said, I got my Tank Radio shirt and it

267
00:14:50.000 --> 00:14:54.039
<v Speaker 2>looks great. Oh good, okay, And what he's talking about

<v Speaker 1>It's not done yet. It's currently I I actually hired

00:15:48.840 --> 00:15:52.159
<v Speaker 1>hand that we're gonna do tonight, I'm going to start.

<v Speaker 1>I'm going to start this build tonight. And Freddie Mack

288
00:16:00.039 --> 00:16:03.120
<v Speaker 1>and I were on Zoom two days this week putting

289
00:16:03.120 --> 00:16:06.440
<v Speaker 1>together a brand new all Star node that I'm gonna

290
00:16:06.519 --> 00:16:09.039
<v Speaker 1>use in the truck mobile, and we had some trouble

291
00:16:09.039 --> 00:16:10.440
<v Speaker 1>with it and ended up taking us two or three

292
00:16:10.480 --> 00:16:12.399
<v Speaker 1>or four hours to put everything together. And I made

293
00:16:12.440 --> 00:16:14.120
<v Speaker 1>the comment when time I was like, thank god, we're

294
00:16:14.159 --> 00:16:16.360

295
00:16:16.639 --> 00:16:18.960
<v Speaker 1>because we'd struggle with a couple of things. That's just

296
00:16:19.039 --> 00:16:22.600
<v Speaker 1>the nature of live streaming. But tonight, I'm going to

297
00:16:22.639 --> 00:16:25.279
<v Speaker 1>start this build. This is called a dx FT eight

298
00:16:25.360 --> 00:16:27.360
<v Speaker 1>and I haven't seen ed in the chat tonight, but

299
00:16:27.639 --> 00:16:31.360
<v Speaker 1>ed into XDD shout out to him. He told me

300
00:16:31.440 --> 00:16:34.000
<v Speaker 1>about this kit when we were at Hamsai last month

301
00:16:34.320 --> 00:16:35.879
<v Speaker 1>and he's like, have you seen this kit? And he

302
00:16:36.720 --> 00:16:38.480
<v Speaker 1>I don't know how old or new it is. I

303
00:16:38.519 --> 00:16:42.320
<v Speaker 1>think it's fairly new. But it is a kit that

304
00:16:42.399 --> 00:16:45.960
<v Speaker 1>you put together for this and apparently there's two versions

305
00:16:46.000 --> 00:16:48.480
<v Speaker 1>of it. And I got the seven band. There's a

306
00:16:48.519 --> 00:16:51.799
<v Speaker 1>five band and a seven band. And after doing a

307
00:16:51.840 --> 00:16:54.559
<v Speaker 1>little bit of digging and sending a couple of messages

308
00:16:54.600 --> 00:16:58.440
<v Speaker 1>in the group's there are no build instructions specifically for

309
00:16:58.480 --> 00:17:01.399
<v Speaker 1>the seven band, but there are for the band. So

310
00:17:01.519 --> 00:17:04.759
<v Speaker 1>that's what we're gonna follow tonight. And you have to

311
00:17:04.799 --> 00:17:07.240
<v Speaker 1>and it's only like forty bucks for this kit, okay,

312
00:17:07.279 --> 00:17:10.079
<v Speaker 1>So if you I will share this link in the chat,

313
00:17:10.119 --> 00:17:12.119
<v Speaker 1>you guys can go join this groups dot io if

314
00:17:12.119 --> 00:17:14.720
<v Speaker 1>you want to and you can learn more about it.

315
00:17:14.759 --> 00:17:17.240
<v Speaker 1>And I don't want to share this guy's You got

316
00:17:17.240 --> 00:17:19.279
<v Speaker 1>to email a guy and he'll send you a PayPal

317
00:17:19.319 --> 00:17:22.240
<v Speaker 1>link and that's how you buy the kit. And uh,

318
00:17:22.359 --> 00:17:26.400
<v Speaker 1>his his name is Uh. You guys might recognize this guy.

319
00:17:28.079 --> 00:17:33.240
<v Speaker 1>Keys Talent kb K five b c q K five

320
00:17:33.400 --> 00:17:36.160
<v Speaker 1>B c Q Keys K E E S. He's the

321
00:17:36.160 --> 00:17:39.240
<v Speaker 1>one who is in charge of putting the kits together

322
00:17:39.480 --> 00:17:43.480
<v Speaker 1>and taking the payment and shipping them out. They're they're

323
00:17:43.480 --> 00:17:46.759
<v Speaker 1>also they're designed by uh Bar W B two C

324
00:17:46.960 --> 00:17:49.079
<v Speaker 1>B A and Charles W five B A A. But

325
00:17:49.119 --> 00:17:52.079
<v Speaker 1>for some reason Keys is the uh He's the guy

326
00:17:52.119 --> 00:17:54.359
<v Speaker 1>who takes all the orders and ships them to He's

327
00:17:54.359 --> 00:18:00.000
<v Speaker 1>actually in Texas, believe it or not, so but that is.

328
00:18:00.119 --> 00:18:01.880
<v Speaker 1>But that's what we're building. And I always thought it'd

329
00:18:01.920 --> 00:18:03.400
<v Speaker 1>be cool to have a kit that you have a

330
00:18:03.400 --> 00:18:06.359
<v Speaker 1>little QRP radio you can throw in your pack when

331
00:18:06.680 --> 00:18:10.680
<v Speaker 1>you when you uh, you know, may travel on an airplane.

332
00:18:10.680 --> 00:18:12.880
<v Speaker 1>Can't take a big intenna with you take you know,

333
00:18:12.960 --> 00:18:16.359
<v Speaker 1>get a pac TENA, get a small QRP radio like this.

334
00:18:16.960 --> 00:18:18.960
<v Speaker 1>And if you do FT alright, if you do c

335
00:18:19.240 --> 00:18:21.039
<v Speaker 1>W great, But if you don't, this might be a

336
00:18:21.079 --> 00:18:23.279
<v Speaker 1>great thing for you because it'll it's just ft eight

337
00:18:23.279 --> 00:18:26.480
<v Speaker 1>only ed no no six meters. So the five band kit,

338
00:18:26.559 --> 00:18:30.400
<v Speaker 1>let me see, I've got a let me find my temp,

339
00:18:30.599 --> 00:18:32.680
<v Speaker 1>let me find my screen here. So the five band

340
00:18:32.759 --> 00:18:39.599
<v Speaker 1>kit is let's see ten, twelve, fifteen, seventeen, and twenty.

341
00:18:39.759 --> 00:18:45.079
<v Speaker 1>I think and then the the that's the I've got

342
00:18:45.079 --> 00:18:47.960
<v Speaker 1>a few pages here. So here's the uh here's a

343
00:18:47.960 --> 00:18:51.759
<v Speaker 1>picture of the board from the five band kit and

344
00:18:51.799 --> 00:18:53.880
<v Speaker 1>it is uh no, I'm sorry, this is the seven

345
00:18:53.920 --> 00:18:56.319
<v Speaker 1>band yet this is the seven band kit board. So

346
00:18:56.440 --> 00:18:59.880
<v Speaker 1>this incorporates ten, twelve, fifteen, seventeen, twenty thirty and.

347
00:18:59.839 --> 00:19:02.440
<v Speaker 2>Five forty one. Do you head again?

348
00:19:02.519 --> 00:19:04.319
<v Speaker 1>I have the seven This is the one that I have.

349
00:19:04.519 --> 00:19:05.720
<v Speaker 1>This is the one that I have right here.

350
00:19:06.039 --> 00:19:07.960
<v Speaker 2>That's a good spread.

351
00:19:08.440 --> 00:19:11.319
<v Speaker 1>Right exactly. Yeah, you know, thirty meters is great because

352
00:19:11.359 --> 00:19:13.480
<v Speaker 1>it's CW only, but you can do digital, so you

353
00:19:13.480 --> 00:19:15.279
<v Speaker 1>can do FT eight on thirty meters all day long

354
00:19:15.319 --> 00:19:18.400
<v Speaker 1>if you want to, and thirty seventeen or twelve or

355
00:19:18.440 --> 00:19:21.720
<v Speaker 1>work bands. So if you get out there and get

356
00:19:22.359 --> 00:19:24.400
<v Speaker 1>you want to do some activating or operating during the

357
00:19:24.680 --> 00:19:26.799
<v Speaker 1>contest weekend and you don't want to play the contest,

358
00:19:26.839 --> 00:19:28.839
<v Speaker 1>you can get on seventeen or thirty meter FT eight

359
00:19:28.839 --> 00:19:31.720
<v Speaker 1>and you can still do some stuff. So I believe

360
00:19:31.759 --> 00:19:34.880
<v Speaker 1>the five band I had a there's a there's a

361
00:19:37.160 --> 00:19:39.559
<v Speaker 1>there's a picture in here somewhere. There's a a lot

362
00:19:39.559 --> 00:19:42.079
<v Speaker 1>of information in here, which is good. It's almost it's

363
00:19:42.119 --> 00:19:45.200
<v Speaker 1>almost information overload. But I'm pretty sure that in a

364
00:19:45.200 --> 00:19:49.079
<v Speaker 1>good way, in a good way, I'm pretty sure it does. Again,

365
00:19:49.200 --> 00:19:50.640
<v Speaker 1>you know what, I don't even know. I think it's

366
00:19:50.640 --> 00:19:53.720
<v Speaker 1>like between two and five. It's a QRP radio.

367
00:19:53.799 --> 00:19:56.400
<v Speaker 2>It's not a B can mean anything under ten.

368
00:19:57.079 --> 00:20:01.119
<v Speaker 1>Correct, Yeah, yeah, that's true, but but it'll uh I

369
00:20:01.160 --> 00:20:04.359
<v Speaker 1>mean QRP. Actually, the definition of QRP means turn your

370
00:20:04.359 --> 00:20:07.400
<v Speaker 1>power down or are you running low power. It's actually

371
00:20:07.400 --> 00:20:09.119
<v Speaker 1>not a number. I don't like it when people say, well,

372
00:20:09.160 --> 00:20:11.000
<v Speaker 1>if it's over five, it's not qr Yes, it is.

373
00:20:11.519 --> 00:20:13.880
<v Speaker 1>If it's less than, if it's fourteen hundred and ninety

374
00:20:13.920 --> 00:20:17.200
<v Speaker 1>nine watts or less than, it's QRP technically. So I mean,

375
00:20:17.279 --> 00:20:19.839
<v Speaker 1>that's that's the T shirt I read at Dayton. Now

376
00:20:19.880 --> 00:20:21.759
<v Speaker 1>I really really want to make one of those myselves

377
00:20:21.759 --> 00:20:26.039
<v Speaker 1>because it's true. But yeah, QRP just means low powers.

378
00:20:26.160 --> 00:20:28.200
<v Speaker 1>There's not actually a number assigned to it in the

379
00:20:28.400 --> 00:20:31.640
<v Speaker 1>In the strictest definition of the Q code.

380
00:20:32.680 --> 00:20:35.559
<v Speaker 2>It says no, it is a milli watt radio.

381
00:20:36.079 --> 00:20:38.480
<v Speaker 1>It might be a million. I haven't read through all

382
00:20:38.519 --> 00:20:40.799
<v Speaker 1>the files here. It might be a million watt radio.

383
00:20:40.799 --> 00:20:43.799
<v Speaker 1>I don't remember. There's a lot the stuff that I

384
00:20:43.839 --> 00:20:46.000
<v Speaker 1>read didn't have a power output, and I don't really

385
00:20:46.000 --> 00:20:50.400
<v Speaker 1>care because FT eight is a low noise mode. It's

386
00:20:50.440 --> 00:20:51.960
<v Speaker 1>not a low power mode. You want to run five

387
00:20:52.039 --> 00:20:54.079
<v Speaker 1>hundred thousand wats on FT eight, you can certainly do that,

388
00:20:54.119 --> 00:20:57.519
<v Speaker 1>there's nothing wrong with it. Just don't burn up your transformer.

389
00:20:58.240 --> 00:21:03.039
<v Speaker 1>But it's a low noise mode, so it's easier to

390
00:21:03.039 --> 00:21:07.240
<v Speaker 1>operate on low power than say sideband is so anyway,

391
00:21:07.799 --> 00:21:09.799
<v Speaker 1>but I'm pretty sure that the five band kit, which

392
00:21:09.839 --> 00:21:12.359
<v Speaker 1>you can still get as well, just does not include

393
00:21:12.480 --> 00:21:15.839
<v Speaker 1>thirty and forty meters. I think it's ten, twelve, fifteen, seventeen,

394
00:21:15.839 --> 00:21:20.680
<v Speaker 1>and twenty. Now, in my typical in my typical way

395
00:21:20.799 --> 00:21:25.599
<v Speaker 1>I do things here, I ordered this. I ordered two

396
00:21:25.599 --> 00:21:27.720
<v Speaker 1>of these kits. I have a second one. I have

397
00:21:27.759 --> 00:21:31.960
<v Speaker 1>a second one, and you have to order the kit

398
00:21:32.039 --> 00:21:36.920
<v Speaker 1>and then you have to order this this board. Well no,

399
00:21:37.200 --> 00:21:40.200
<v Speaker 1>with the instruction. Yeah, you have to order this board

400
00:21:40.200 --> 00:21:43.559
<v Speaker 1>from mau either Mauser or Digike called this this STM

401
00:21:43.559 --> 00:21:46.400
<v Speaker 1>thirty two board with the with the Ethernet port on

402
00:21:46.440 --> 00:21:48.240
<v Speaker 1>it and whatnot. And I've ordered this board, but I

403
00:21:48.240 --> 00:21:50.240
<v Speaker 1>don't have this board yet, so we can't complete the

404
00:21:50.240 --> 00:21:54.039
<v Speaker 1>build tonight. But I knew a screen on it also,

405
00:21:55.319 --> 00:21:58.440
<v Speaker 1>uh yeah, yeah, this is yeah, this is the screen. Yeah,

406
00:21:58.440 --> 00:22:00.559
<v Speaker 1>this is the screen board here that you will see

407
00:22:00.559 --> 00:22:04.279
<v Speaker 1>because you can see right here that running right there.

408
00:22:05.039 --> 00:22:08.359
<v Speaker 1>That's what it looks like when it's uh all done

409
00:22:08.400 --> 00:22:11.000
<v Speaker 1>and up and running and whatnot. And in typical fashion

410
00:22:11.039 --> 00:22:12.680
<v Speaker 1>the way that I do things, I ordered these, I

411
00:22:12.680 --> 00:22:14.519
<v Speaker 1>got him in, paid for him, got him in. I

412
00:22:14.559 --> 00:22:16.920
<v Speaker 1>was like, okay, I'm gonna put these together, and uh

413
00:22:16.960 --> 00:22:19.640
<v Speaker 1>only seven band of shipping, thanks Jerry. I didn't know that,

414
00:22:19.839 --> 00:22:22.640
<v Speaker 1>but okay, But as soon as I got these two

415
00:22:22.640 --> 00:22:26.160
<v Speaker 1>boards in, they announced a new version. So he's got

416
00:22:26.160 --> 00:22:29.599
<v Speaker 1>a new version that he's taking he's taking orders for.

417
00:22:29.680 --> 00:22:31.599
<v Speaker 1>I haven't started a ship yet that will have its

418
00:22:31.599 --> 00:22:34.359
<v Speaker 1>own life Po four battery and BMS built in it,

419
00:22:34.440 --> 00:22:36.680
<v Speaker 1>so you'll be able to just plug it in the wall.

420
00:22:37.000 --> 00:22:39.920
<v Speaker 1>It will charge the battery, stop charging when it's uh

421
00:22:39.920 --> 00:22:42.680
<v Speaker 1>when it's done. And then so it's got its own

422
00:22:42.720 --> 00:22:44.799
<v Speaker 1>battery charger and BMS in. And so I ordered one

423
00:22:44.839 --> 00:22:47.920
<v Speaker 1>of those. Key sent out an email and he's like, hey,

424
00:22:48.200 --> 00:22:50.000
<v Speaker 1>got this new one Lippo four battery. I don't know

425
00:22:50.000 --> 00:22:51.640
<v Speaker 1>how big of a battery. I assume it's pretty small

426
00:22:52.240 --> 00:22:56.079
<v Speaker 1>LIVEPO four battery with a BMS. I don't I think

427
00:22:56.119 --> 00:22:58.559
<v Speaker 1>the price the price on this board was like forty bucks.

428
00:22:59.160 --> 00:23:01.319
<v Speaker 1>And I said, yeah, go ahead and send me one

429
00:23:01.319 --> 00:23:03.279
<v Speaker 1>of those when you're done with it. When you, I said,

430
00:23:03.359 --> 00:23:06.160
<v Speaker 1>he goes, he goes, reply back to this email. Let

431
00:23:06.200 --> 00:23:07.440
<v Speaker 1>me know if you want to be put on the list.

432
00:23:07.839 --> 00:23:10.200
<v Speaker 1>So I did, and I said, put me on the list.

433
00:23:10.319 --> 00:23:12.960
<v Speaker 1>And uh, I don't have any further information on that

434
00:23:13.039 --> 00:23:18.519
<v Speaker 1>right now, but but that is what is going on

435
00:23:18.599 --> 00:23:20.279
<v Speaker 1>with that. So I want to turn my camera on

436
00:23:21.400 --> 00:23:26.039
<v Speaker 1>over there, and here is the kit I'm gonna I

437
00:23:26.079 --> 00:23:28.920
<v Speaker 1>don't want to solder it on this thing. So here's

438
00:23:28.920 --> 00:23:33.519
<v Speaker 1>the kit. Here's the board that we have here, and

439
00:23:33.519 --> 00:23:36.359
<v Speaker 1>and it comes with this stuff. Here comes with the

440
00:23:36.839 --> 00:23:40.599
<v Speaker 1>comes with this. No, there's not that much to it, really.

441
00:23:40.680 --> 00:23:42.799
<v Speaker 2>I suspect that that's just a pain in the butt.

442
00:23:43.400 --> 00:23:45.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, these these are a pain. This actually comes as

443
00:23:45.519 --> 00:23:49.759
<v Speaker 1>one piece. It's a forty pin uh whatever you call it,

444
00:23:50.119 --> 00:23:52.200
<v Speaker 1>the riser pin card or whatever you call this thing.

445
00:23:52.559 --> 00:23:54.680
<v Speaker 1>And you break it off into like four pieces, a

446
00:23:54.720 --> 00:23:57.240
<v Speaker 1>six piece, two eight pieces, and a ten piece, and

447
00:23:57.279 --> 00:23:59.079
<v Speaker 1>this got these little notches in here. It's just easy

448
00:23:59.200 --> 00:24:01.039
<v Speaker 1>kind of Actually this one was broken when I got it.

449
00:24:01.079 --> 00:24:02.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, wait a minute, that's already broken. So I

450
00:24:02.720 --> 00:24:05.359
<v Speaker 1>hope that's right. The second one that I got, I

451
00:24:05.400 --> 00:24:06.759
<v Speaker 1>told you about two of them. The second one I

452
00:24:06.759 --> 00:24:09.240
<v Speaker 1>got is a whole piece that that's the full forty pins.

453
00:24:09.480 --> 00:24:11.680
<v Speaker 1>So I hope this broke the right place. I don't know.

454
00:24:11.920 --> 00:24:14.880
<v Speaker 2>So so everyone's asking, is the bill complete? No, we're

455
00:24:14.920 --> 00:24:15.720
<v Speaker 2>about to do it live.

456
00:24:15.799 --> 00:24:17.599
<v Speaker 1>No, we're about to We're about to do We're about

457
00:24:17.640 --> 00:24:18.960
<v Speaker 1>to start this build live.

458
00:24:19.279 --> 00:24:21.559
<v Speaker 2>And we're going to see if this is a weekend

459
00:24:21.720 --> 00:24:23.119
<v Speaker 2>or a live stream milled.

460
00:24:24.359 --> 00:24:27.039
<v Speaker 1>Right, Yeah, totally. So these are the risers here. You

461
00:24:27.079 --> 00:24:29.480
<v Speaker 1>put the the the board I'm a build now, you

462
00:24:29.480 --> 00:24:31.720
<v Speaker 1>put it on the bottom. You put the second board

463
00:24:31.759 --> 00:24:34.480
<v Speaker 1>from Mauser or digit key on top on the in

464
00:24:34.559 --> 00:24:37.000
<v Speaker 1>the middle, and then you put this little guy on top. Here.

465
00:24:37.119 --> 00:24:39.119
<v Speaker 1>This is the This is the bottom bottom piece of it.

466
00:24:39.519 --> 00:24:42.160
<v Speaker 1>So it comes with all this stuff. It comes with

467
00:24:42.200 --> 00:24:45.480
<v Speaker 1>the case and whatnot, and the riser's in it, and uh,

468
00:24:45.559 --> 00:24:48.039
<v Speaker 1>a little battery port for a CR I think it's

469
00:24:48.039 --> 00:24:51.440
<v Speaker 1>a CR twenty thirty two, and then you know power

470
00:24:51.480 --> 00:24:53.119
<v Speaker 1>cable that kind of thing. So this is not a

471
00:24:53.160 --> 00:24:55.240
<v Speaker 1>hard build at all, and and I looked at it

472
00:24:55.279 --> 00:24:57.279
<v Speaker 1>and like, oh, even I can do that. So this

473
00:24:57.319 --> 00:24:58.279
<v Speaker 1>is why I chose it.

474
00:24:58.359 --> 00:25:01.200
<v Speaker 2>So so that battery is just for the sea moss,

475
00:25:01.440 --> 00:25:03.200
<v Speaker 2>and it's not correct power.

476
00:25:03.480 --> 00:25:06.920
<v Speaker 1>That's correct, Yes, it is correct. Yeah, yep, that is correct.

477
00:25:06.960 --> 00:25:10.240
<v Speaker 1>So uh yeah, I'm gonna turn this thing back on

478
00:25:10.319 --> 00:25:13.640
<v Speaker 1>manual focus. I don't like the ways doing that, so okay,

479
00:25:13.680 --> 00:25:17.079
<v Speaker 1>not tonight, but eventually. So so this is where we're

480
00:25:17.079 --> 00:25:19.440
<v Speaker 1>gonna start tonight, and uh, I will get as soon

481
00:25:19.480 --> 00:25:22.079
<v Speaker 1>as I get there again, I've ordered these, uh these

482
00:25:22.160 --> 00:25:25.680
<v Speaker 1>mouser boards over here, and uh, I guess they take

483
00:25:25.799 --> 00:25:28.039
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. It says can ship immediately, but I

484
00:25:28.039 --> 00:25:29.920
<v Speaker 1>haven't gotten mine yet. Actually it might be at the

485
00:25:29.960 --> 00:25:31.880
<v Speaker 1>mailbox waiting for me. I don't know yet. But these

486
00:25:31.880 --> 00:25:35.599
<v Speaker 1>are about fifty seven fifty so all in, all in

487
00:25:35.680 --> 00:25:37.799
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna look look about it, about one hundred bucks

488
00:25:37.839 --> 00:25:42.200
<v Speaker 1>to build that, all the stuff that can tasting but not. Yeah. Yeah,

489
00:25:42.359 --> 00:25:49.039
<v Speaker 1>so pretty cool, kit, I think, And later John gotta

<v Speaker 1>like that.

492
00:25:53.079 --> 00:25:56.079
<v Speaker 2>The other comment I love this is this ahead nuest episode.

493
00:25:56.119 --> 00:25:58.359
<v Speaker 2>No wait, he's following the instructions nevermind.

00:25:59.160 --> 00:26:03.359
<v Speaker 1>Ah, yes, yeah, so m hmm, so that's what we're

495
00:26:03.400 --> 00:26:07.559
<v Speaker 1>gonna do tonight. These are cool. These these uh oh, where'd.

496
00:26:07.240 --> 00:26:07.680
<v Speaker 2>You get that?

497
00:26:08.079 --> 00:26:11.160
<v Speaker 1>County, Calm County. I've got this one. I've got a

498
00:26:11.200 --> 00:26:13.039
<v Speaker 1>I've got an orange one, all Right'm sorry. I've got

499
00:26:13.039 --> 00:26:14.920
<v Speaker 1>a green one and a gray one. These are really

500
00:26:14.960 --> 00:26:19.400
<v Speaker 1>cool plastic. Uh what does that say? You find her inactive?

501
00:26:19.759 --> 00:26:21.799
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? Inactive push anything?

502
00:26:22.559 --> 00:26:26.359
<v Speaker 1>Okay, So yeah, well that's something else I did, so okay,

503
00:26:26.559 --> 00:26:28.640
<v Speaker 1>so chalk this up to a boneheaded move. I took

504
00:26:28.680 --> 00:26:32.160
<v Speaker 1>that camera to ham Side to record the Hamsie conference

505
00:26:32.920 --> 00:26:35.799
<v Speaker 1>and it had my battery eliminator in it, and I'm like, oh,

506
00:26:35.839 --> 00:26:37.440
<v Speaker 1>I got to keep that, and I put it somewhere.

507
00:26:37.480 --> 00:26:40.039
<v Speaker 1>I lost it. So it's running on battery power right

508
00:26:40.039 --> 00:26:44.200
<v Speaker 1>now because I lost my battery eliminator I was gonna see. Yeah,

509
00:26:44.200 --> 00:26:46.279
<v Speaker 1>so I woulder another and I forgot that I had

510
00:26:46.319 --> 00:26:48.559
<v Speaker 1>lost that, so I order another one today. Of course

511
00:26:48.559 --> 00:26:50.160
<v Speaker 1>it won't be here till tomorrow, so I've got to

512
00:26:50.200 --> 00:26:52.799
<v Speaker 1>deal with the battery on this thing all night tonight.

513
00:26:52.839 --> 00:26:55.240
<v Speaker 1>But oh well that's just how it is, all right,

514
00:26:55.319 --> 00:26:58.119
<v Speaker 1>So real quick, real quick, you guys know that I

515
00:26:58.119 --> 00:27:02.680
<v Speaker 1>turned fifty last year, right, yeah, there we go, all right?

516
00:27:04.960 --> 00:27:08.599
<v Speaker 1>I uh, all right, So we're gonna uh, Frank, it's uh,

517
00:27:08.640 --> 00:27:11.599
<v Speaker 1>you are in charge of the chat. I'm gonna start

518
00:27:11.640 --> 00:27:15.200
<v Speaker 1>in on this and see what kind of bumbling we

519
00:27:15.240 --> 00:27:18.960
<v Speaker 1>can get through here. And I've got I'm gonna pull

520
00:27:19.039 --> 00:27:23.079
<v Speaker 1>up these build instructions here. I forget where that which

521
00:27:23.119 --> 00:27:23.920
<v Speaker 1>tab did I have that?

522
00:27:24.039 --> 00:27:24.160
<v Speaker 2>On?

523
00:27:24.200 --> 00:27:24.920
<v Speaker 1>There? It is right there?

524
00:27:24.960 --> 00:27:29.519
<v Speaker 3>Okay, good? So where that? Where did that gets it?

525
00:27:30.039 --> 00:27:34.000
<v Speaker 1>So here's the here's the first page here? So and

526
00:27:34.079 --> 00:27:36.680
<v Speaker 1>again this is the five band version, because I emailed

527
00:27:36.680 --> 00:27:38.359
<v Speaker 1>and I said, do you have build instructions for the

528
00:27:38.400 --> 00:27:41.519
<v Speaker 1>seven band version? And uh? And somebody replied back and

529
00:27:41.559 --> 00:27:44.440
<v Speaker 1>they gave me this link right here with all of

530
00:27:44.480 --> 00:27:46.240
<v Speaker 1>this stuff down here, a lot of pictures, a lot

531
00:27:46.240 --> 00:27:49.079
<v Speaker 1>of images, some PDF files, some how to's and whatnot,

532
00:27:49.119 --> 00:27:53.240
<v Speaker 1>et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. And someone said, ah, yeah,

533
00:27:53.279 --> 00:27:55.119
<v Speaker 1>did you find the step by step? And I'm like, no,

534
00:27:55.200 --> 00:27:57.200
<v Speaker 1>I didn't, where's the step by step? Well, the step

535
00:27:57.240 --> 00:28:00.079
<v Speaker 1>by step instructions are actually for the five band, but

536
00:28:00.119 --> 00:28:02.599
<v Speaker 1>I think it's pretty darn similar. And then key and

537
00:28:02.640 --> 00:28:06.279
<v Speaker 1>then uh and then what's his name? The guy barb.

538
00:28:06.359 --> 00:28:09.119
<v Speaker 1>He replied. He's like, he's like, man, I'm sorry, I've

539
00:28:09.160 --> 00:28:11.880
<v Speaker 1>just gotten he's busy. It's cool. It's not a you know,

540
00:28:11.960 --> 00:28:14.480
<v Speaker 1>this is an open source project, you know. Uh. He's like,

541
00:28:14.559 --> 00:28:17.319
<v Speaker 1>I haven't gotten a seven band instructure put together. I'm

542
00:28:17.319 --> 00:28:19.839
<v Speaker 1>sorry for that. And I'm like, no, don't worry about it.

543
00:28:19.839 --> 00:28:21.640
<v Speaker 1>It's uh, I think I can get to it with this.

544
00:28:21.759 --> 00:28:23.519
<v Speaker 1>I think he's working on that either way, though, So

545
00:28:23.839 --> 00:28:25.680
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna see how we can do with this tonight.

546
00:28:26.079 --> 00:28:28.880
<v Speaker 2>And Chris, we did talk about the price point all

547
00:28:28.960 --> 00:28:32.000
<v Speaker 2>total with the secondary board that you need for the

548
00:28:32.119 --> 00:28:35.880
<v Speaker 2>LCD screen plus the additional board, you're looking around eight

549
00:28:36.000 --> 00:28:36.680
<v Speaker 2>hundred dollars.

550
00:28:36.920 --> 00:28:39.079
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, about one hundred bucks for everything something like that.

551
00:28:39.599 --> 00:28:42.079
<v Speaker 1>So this board here, well, this kit with all the

552
00:28:42.119 --> 00:28:44.319
<v Speaker 1>stuff that I just showed you is about forty bucks

553
00:28:44.759 --> 00:28:47.359
<v Speaker 1>before shipping, and I think it's like five bucks for

554
00:28:47.400 --> 00:28:52.799
<v Speaker 1>shipping or something, and then uh, the and then the

555
00:28:52.799 --> 00:28:55.440
<v Speaker 1>the mouser board's like fifty seven bucks something like that.

556
00:28:55.559 --> 00:28:57.400
<v Speaker 2>So let's let's get to it.

557
00:28:57.480 --> 00:29:01.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, okay, let's get to it. Uh. Let's see all right,

558
00:29:01.240 --> 00:29:04.400
<v Speaker 1>So the first thing in this shot right here is

559
00:29:05.200 --> 00:29:11.279
<v Speaker 1>to let me turn that on switch and switch. That's better.

560
00:29:12.079 --> 00:29:14.319
<v Speaker 1>So I wish they wouldn't have used this red text

561
00:29:14.319 --> 00:29:15.920
<v Speaker 1>on top of this green here because it's hard to

562
00:29:15.920 --> 00:29:19.400
<v Speaker 1>read sometimes. But this says there's a switch over here.

563
00:29:19.920 --> 00:29:23.680
<v Speaker 1>There's the T two six thirteen transformer here, the SMA

564
00:29:23.720 --> 00:29:27.599
<v Speaker 1>connector down at the bottom, and then another connector over

565
00:29:27.640 --> 00:29:32.319
<v Speaker 1>here and another switch there. Oh, power switch there. So

566
00:29:32.359 --> 00:29:37.079
<v Speaker 1>there's two switches which you're right here, and then the

567
00:29:37.319 --> 00:29:41.720
<v Speaker 1>U This is the barrel connector and this is the

568
00:29:41.839 --> 00:29:45.039
<v Speaker 1>SMA connector right there. So we're gonna so we're gonna

569
00:29:45.079 --> 00:29:48.039
<v Speaker 1>start on that and see how far we get. So

570
00:29:49.920 --> 00:29:52.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry, Yeah, this is the SMA connector. I gotta

571
00:29:53.039 --> 00:29:57.480
<v Speaker 1>remember which screen I'm on. Switches and a barrel connector.

572
00:29:58.359 --> 00:30:02.240
<v Speaker 1>Bought a battery clip that on the bottom side. There

573
00:30:02.279 --> 00:30:04.079
<v Speaker 1>we go. Okay, oh you Frank?

574
00:30:05.039 --> 00:30:12.160
<v Speaker 2>All right? Uh the linked link for this again?

575
00:30:13.559 --> 00:30:15.640
<v Speaker 1>Did you get that? I put it in there? Did

576
00:30:15.680 --> 00:30:16.119
<v Speaker 1>you see it?

577
00:30:17.640 --> 00:30:20.119
<v Speaker 2>You did it a while ago, and I did I

578
00:30:20.400 --> 00:30:22.799
<v Speaker 2>wasn't quietly paid attention to your posts.

579
00:30:23.279 --> 00:30:25.119
<v Speaker 1>That's okay, okay, So I'm gonna put it in again.

580
00:30:25.119 --> 00:30:27.759
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna put a link to the groups dot io

581
00:30:30.519 --> 00:30:32.839
<v Speaker 1>and you can save that there. Frank, d x F

582
00:30:32.920 --> 00:30:35.880
<v Speaker 1>T eight, dot groups, dot io, and that's where you

583
00:30:36.000 --> 00:30:39.400
<v Speaker 1>get you can get all the information about who to email,

584
00:30:39.400 --> 00:30:40.519
<v Speaker 1>how to order it, and that kind of thing.

585
00:30:42.799 --> 00:30:54.000
<v Speaker 2>I saved it off, okay, tip maintenance also, yes, a

586
00:30:54.240 --> 00:30:57.240
<v Speaker 2>good safety thoughe. When you're done today, Jason, please don't

587
00:30:57.240 --> 00:30:59.960
<v Speaker 2>forget to turn off your sawdery irons.

588
00:31:00.000 --> 00:31:00.720
<v Speaker 1>That's a good idea.

589
00:31:00.799 --> 00:31:01.079
<v Speaker 3>Frank.

590
00:31:03.000 --> 00:31:05.279
<v Speaker 2>I'm not saying who, but someone on the stream left

591
00:31:05.279 --> 00:31:08.079
<v Speaker 2>it off for a week.

592
00:31:08.799 --> 00:31:11.559
<v Speaker 1>Well you know what I mean to each his own.

593
00:31:11.599 --> 00:31:14.960
<v Speaker 2>I guess I walked in the room. I'm like, what

594
00:31:14.960 --> 00:31:16.680
<v Speaker 2>what smells like? Bernie?

595
00:31:16.920 --> 00:31:17.880
<v Speaker 1>Ah?

596
00:31:17.920 --> 00:31:24.200
<v Speaker 3>Whoops, I gotta get some higher powered glasses.

597
00:31:24.240 --> 00:31:26.279
<v Speaker 1>I think I gotta stand back from it.

598
00:31:29.880 --> 00:31:34.680
<v Speaker 2>Okay, once you're done, your camera just went no signal?

599
00:31:35.359 --> 00:31:39.480
<v Speaker 1>Oh hold on, okay, can it is that? Dep No?

600
00:31:39.720 --> 00:31:42.960
<v Speaker 1>You know what. It's got a power saving feature that

601
00:31:43.039 --> 00:31:45.279
<v Speaker 1>I turned off. But I don't think that power saving

602
00:31:45.319 --> 00:31:49.160
<v Speaker 1>future works on battery power. So okay, tell me if

603
00:31:49.200 --> 00:31:49.839
<v Speaker 1>that does that again.

604
00:31:49.920 --> 00:31:56.400
<v Speaker 2>We're good. We're good.

605
00:31:57.640 --> 00:32:01.319
<v Speaker 1>So you around next Friday for the happy hour, Frank, uh.

606
00:32:00.920 --> 00:32:04.240
<v Speaker 2>This coming happy hour for Thanksgiving.

607
00:32:03.680 --> 00:32:07.160
<v Speaker 1>Weekend Thanksgivings in November. This is Easter.

608
00:32:08.160 --> 00:32:09.440
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, easter.

609
00:32:10.720 --> 00:32:12.799
<v Speaker 1>I know what you mean, but it's a live stream,

610
00:32:12.839 --> 00:32:13.640
<v Speaker 1>so I gotta tease you.

611
00:32:13.640 --> 00:32:19.079
<v Speaker 2>Right perfect, Yes, I'll be here, okay, and and I'm

612
00:32:19.079 --> 00:32:21.480
<v Speaker 2>looking forward to it, and I'll probably be on my

613
00:32:21.640 --> 00:32:23.000
<v Speaker 2>patio or deck.

614
00:32:23.440 --> 00:32:26.319
<v Speaker 1>You know what. It's possible then I will string the

615
00:32:26.359 --> 00:32:28.079
<v Speaker 1>camera out there and do that same thing.

616
00:32:28.920 --> 00:32:29.720
<v Speaker 3>It's possible.

617
00:32:32.200 --> 00:32:33.759
<v Speaker 1>You know what that This is a good solder joint

618
00:32:33.799 --> 00:32:36.720
<v Speaker 1>if I do say so myself. So so everything else

619
00:32:36.799 --> 00:32:39.400
<v Speaker 1>I do tonight that screws up. I'm gonna be like, hey,

620
00:32:39.720 --> 00:32:43.839
<v Speaker 1>I put the switch in right, so we'll see, all right?

621
00:32:44.160 --> 00:32:47.839
<v Speaker 2>Was there only two soldering joints? You did? There? You did?

622
00:32:48.079 --> 00:32:49.160
<v Speaker 1>There was five pins?

623
00:32:49.480 --> 00:32:51.759
<v Speaker 2>Five got five pins perfect.

624
00:32:51.759 --> 00:32:56.359
<v Speaker 1>Five pins, three little pins in the middle, and then

625
00:32:56.359 --> 00:32:58.799
<v Speaker 1>two two larger kind of slat pins on the on

626
00:32:58.839 --> 00:33:02.559
<v Speaker 1>the side there. So okay, let's uh, we're gonna go

627
00:33:02.599 --> 00:33:06.440
<v Speaker 1>back here. And this says a T to six thirteen

628
00:33:06.519 --> 00:33:11.240
<v Speaker 1>dash one transformer and I I don't know what that is.

629
00:33:11.559 --> 00:33:17.160
<v Speaker 1>Oh you know what? Okay, so that is already on here.

630
00:33:17.559 --> 00:33:20.079
<v Speaker 1>That's something I noticed. So this is something either different

631
00:33:20.720 --> 00:33:22.920
<v Speaker 1>about the seven band or maybe they just started putting

632
00:33:22.920 --> 00:33:25.039
<v Speaker 1>it on here. I don't know. This little guy right

633
00:33:25.079 --> 00:33:29.680
<v Speaker 1>here that I'm pointing to this little white transformer. It's

634
00:33:30.160 --> 00:33:32.599
<v Speaker 1>on these instructions it says to it to solder that on.

635
00:33:33.119 --> 00:33:37.119
<v Speaker 1>But this is already on here, So we're gonna we're

636
00:33:37.240 --> 00:33:40.039
<v Speaker 1>we're we can skip that part and then the uh,

637
00:33:40.119 --> 00:33:44.279
<v Speaker 1>the SMA connect out. The SMA connector here has three

638
00:33:44.279 --> 00:33:46.240
<v Speaker 1>pins on the top and two pins on the bottom.

639
00:33:46.240 --> 00:33:48.319
<v Speaker 1>And you can see right there, if you can see it,

640
00:33:48.599 --> 00:33:51.799
<v Speaker 1>there's three little slats there and two slats there, so

641
00:33:51.839 --> 00:33:53.559
<v Speaker 1>you have to solder it on both sides of the board.

642
00:33:54.599 --> 00:33:56.200
<v Speaker 1>So that is that's gonna happen.

643
00:33:56.240 --> 00:33:56.480
<v Speaker 3>Next.

644
00:33:57.839 --> 00:34:01.519
<v Speaker 2>What's the frequency? Happy Halloween by the way, way.

645
00:34:02.519 --> 00:34:04.759
<v Speaker 1>Oh they got you there, Frank m.

646
00:34:09.039 --> 00:34:10.159
<v Speaker 3>Is the frequency in use?

647
00:34:29.960 --> 00:34:49.679
<v Speaker 2>Okay, Ed says, you need a circuit board holder for you.

648
00:34:50.480 --> 00:34:53.119
<v Speaker 2>I'm on one hand, I don't like the holders. On

649
00:34:53.199 --> 00:34:54.880
<v Speaker 2>the other hand, I want to holder.

650
00:34:56.000 --> 00:34:59.400
<v Speaker 1>I have one. The helping hands I have one, and

651
00:34:59.440 --> 00:35:02.440
<v Speaker 1>I find isn't that now I'm not an expert. Okay,

652
00:35:02.519 --> 00:35:04.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm not an expert, and some of you guys who

653
00:35:04.519 --> 00:35:06.840
<v Speaker 1>are more adept at this might not agree. But I

654
00:35:06.960 --> 00:35:10.559
<v Speaker 1>find it to be a little bit more challenging to

655
00:35:10.719 --> 00:35:13.280
<v Speaker 1>use than just sitting on the table. See this, this

656
00:35:13.280 --> 00:35:14.880
<v Speaker 1>this pad that I have down here, I don't care

657
00:35:14.920 --> 00:35:19.519
<v Speaker 1>if I get stuff on it, so I don't. I

658
00:35:19.519 --> 00:35:21.480
<v Speaker 1>don't find them to be all that beneficial. If you

659
00:35:21.519 --> 00:35:23.360
<v Speaker 1>guys disagree with that, let me know in the chat.

660
00:35:24.920 --> 00:35:28.920
<v Speaker 2>Kevin, Happy New Year's to you.

661
00:35:28.920 --> 00:35:30.000
<v Speaker 1>You get happy New Year's now?

662
00:35:30.039 --> 00:35:35.199
<v Speaker 3>Huh that's good. Okay, put some more on that one

663
00:35:35.280 --> 00:35:35.840
<v Speaker 3>right there.

664
00:35:37.360 --> 00:35:39.400
<v Speaker 1>I actually got an email from some Chinese company wanting

665
00:35:39.400 --> 00:35:41.719
<v Speaker 1>to send me a set of helping hams. Can you

666
00:35:41.760 --> 00:35:44.239
<v Speaker 1>make a video on this? And I'm like, eh, I

667
00:35:44.239 --> 00:35:45.199
<v Speaker 1>could use it in the video.

668
00:35:51.039 --> 00:35:53.519
<v Speaker 2>Now it looks like we're doing the INTENTA port.

669
00:35:53.880 --> 00:36:01.679
<v Speaker 1>Yes, this is the SMA port. That's correct. Okay, all right,

670
00:36:02.119 --> 00:36:02.719
<v Speaker 1>that's on there.

671
00:36:02.760 --> 00:36:04.960
<v Speaker 2>Paul does not like the extra hands.

672
00:36:06.360 --> 00:36:15.400
<v Speaker 1>Prep Pam, Paul, yep, yeah, okay. So next is that's

673
00:36:15.440 --> 00:36:18.400
<v Speaker 1>not there? Okay? This is switch up top? And what

674
00:36:18.519 --> 00:36:22.280
<v Speaker 1>is that on this on the middle there? Oh, that's

675
00:36:22.320 --> 00:36:26.159
<v Speaker 1>that thing. Okay, So if you look at okay, so

676
00:36:26.280 --> 00:36:28.639
<v Speaker 1>what this picture here is showing me is that there's

677
00:36:28.639 --> 00:36:31.679
<v Speaker 1>another switch that goes right here, and there's what they're

678
00:36:31.719 --> 00:36:36.199
<v Speaker 1>calling a DC barrel connector, which is this guy right here.

679
00:36:37.159 --> 00:36:42.039
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna, I'm gonna, I'm gonna change this camera, Frank.

680
00:36:42.320 --> 00:36:46.239
<v Speaker 2>Yep, and your other one just went.

681
00:36:47.239 --> 00:36:50.760
<v Speaker 1>Okay, camera issues glory, Okay, I tell you what, Frank,

682
00:36:50.800 --> 00:36:52.519
<v Speaker 1>you take it for a minute. I'm gonna change this camera.

683
00:36:54.400 --> 00:36:56.800
<v Speaker 2>While Jason's changed the camera. I'm just gonna be hanging

684
00:36:56.880 --> 00:37:02.119
<v Speaker 2>out with y'all. Many hat holidays to whatever one is

685
00:37:02.159 --> 00:37:09.480
<v Speaker 2>happening in this particular moment in time. Yeah, but more

686
00:37:09.519 --> 00:37:13.000
<v Speaker 2>expos also coming up, Jason, and I'm looking forward to that.

687
00:37:13.159 --> 00:37:16.360
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna be packing coming up this week. I got

688
00:37:16.360 --> 00:37:23.079
<v Speaker 2>to do my tent and I'm making some beans. They're

689
00:37:23.119 --> 00:37:28.440
<v Speaker 2>not going to be too outrageous. Toss me a link

690
00:37:28.519 --> 00:37:31.440
<v Speaker 2>or show me where these helping hands are bulletholders are.

691
00:37:33.559 --> 00:37:35.440
<v Speaker 2>Toss it to me on the discord and I'll get

692
00:37:35.480 --> 00:37:38.880
<v Speaker 2>it out there because I'm kind of looking into some

693
00:37:38.960 --> 00:37:41.360
<v Speaker 2>of these. I want to get back into doing kids

694
00:37:41.559 --> 00:37:44.440
<v Speaker 2>and sometimes holding stuff down in the right place is

695
00:37:45.039 --> 00:37:49.280
<v Speaker 2>really annoying. And I've tried the board clips and other

696
00:37:49.360 --> 00:37:52.039
<v Speaker 2>stuff that it just getting it to hold it right

697
00:37:52.199 --> 00:37:55.320
<v Speaker 2>is takes more time than just trying to finaggling it

698
00:37:55.360 --> 00:37:57.880
<v Speaker 2>with just holding it on the table or with a

699
00:37:57.920 --> 00:37:58.719
<v Speaker 2>pen or something.

700
00:37:58.760 --> 00:38:00.639
<v Speaker 1>You're talking about helping hands there.

701
00:38:00.559 --> 00:38:03.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, helping hands or some of the clips that I

702
00:38:03.559 --> 00:38:06.000
<v Speaker 2>that came with some of the son and irons, like

703
00:38:06.239 --> 00:38:09.159
<v Speaker 2>getting it right takes more time for the instead of

704
00:38:09.199 --> 00:38:11.920
<v Speaker 2>like you're just doing putting a pen behind it, and just.

705
00:38:11.920 --> 00:38:14.840
<v Speaker 1>I agree, I agree. I just I just put a pin,

706
00:38:15.480 --> 00:38:18.039
<v Speaker 1>a writing pin underneath that to kind of hold it

707
00:38:18.119 --> 00:38:20.039
<v Speaker 1>up there for a second. And I find that, because

708
00:38:20.079 --> 00:38:21.440
<v Speaker 1>now I've got all this space, I don't have to

709
00:38:21.840 --> 00:38:22.920
<v Speaker 1>turn around it like that.

710
00:38:23.360 --> 00:38:26.760
<v Speaker 2>I want to see what what options are out there,

711
00:38:26.800 --> 00:38:31.920
<v Speaker 2>So maybe there is a nicer one, maybe a newer one.

712
00:38:34.719 --> 00:38:39.000
<v Speaker 1>Possibly. Yeah. Yeah, the one I got is just from Amazon.

713
00:38:39.039 --> 00:38:41.880
<v Speaker 1>It's nothing special. It worked, I mean it worked for

714
00:38:41.960 --> 00:38:44.280
<v Speaker 1>what it is. It works. It's just I find that

715
00:38:44.360 --> 00:38:46.519
<v Speaker 1>it's you know, it's it's like an extra step you

716
00:38:46.519 --> 00:38:48.199
<v Speaker 1>have to do. And I was like, oh, you know,

717
00:38:48.320 --> 00:38:51.079
<v Speaker 1>just get rid of it and you don't have to

718
00:38:51.320 --> 00:38:52.280
<v Speaker 1>fool with it anymore.

719
00:38:52.639 --> 00:38:55.280
<v Speaker 2>Okay, Like I'm feeling like I'm watching a holiday from

720
00:38:55.280 --> 00:38:55.920
<v Speaker 2>the holiday and.

721
00:38:57.320 --> 00:39:05.480
<v Speaker 1>Ah, okay. So there's the DC connector right there, and

722
00:39:05.559 --> 00:39:08.239
<v Speaker 1>I'll put another the other switch in. So this switch

723
00:39:08.280 --> 00:39:17.599
<v Speaker 1>here says uh, let's see RF power select. So this

724
00:39:17.679 --> 00:39:19.519
<v Speaker 1>is the switch. So this is the power select switch.

725
00:39:19.519 --> 00:39:24.039
<v Speaker 1>Here high and low. I guess this switch here is

726
00:39:24.079 --> 00:39:26.920
<v Speaker 1>the power the power off and on of the transceiver,

727
00:39:27.639 --> 00:39:32.159
<v Speaker 1>so it's got two. Yeah, I should know if this

728
00:39:32.280 --> 00:39:34.679
<v Speaker 1>single poll single three. I should know that, but I

729
00:39:34.719 --> 00:39:36.360
<v Speaker 1>took my hand radio test thirty years ago and I

730
00:39:36.360 --> 00:39:38.599
<v Speaker 1>don't remember. It's a two way switch. It's either left

731
00:39:38.679 --> 00:39:39.079
<v Speaker 1>or right.

732
00:39:39.199 --> 00:39:51.000
<v Speaker 3>So let's see.

733
00:39:52.599 --> 00:39:55.280
<v Speaker 2>It's Josh Man. Welcome to the stream, he says, just

734
00:39:55.280 --> 00:40:02.360
<v Speaker 2>got back from camping, Josh Hanrito crash course.

735
00:40:02.519 --> 00:40:04.679
<v Speaker 1>Oh it's I didn't see him in there. M up, dude,

736
00:40:06.159 --> 00:40:08.639
<v Speaker 1>So I saw you on twelve meter or no, I'm sorry,

737
00:40:08.639 --> 00:40:10.079
<v Speaker 1>twenty meter fight last night.

738
00:40:10.480 --> 00:40:13.039
<v Speaker 2>Ooh that's fun.

739
00:40:13.599 --> 00:40:16.159
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it was before before his stream started too.

740
00:40:16.880 --> 00:40:20.559
<v Speaker 2>We were talking in the chat earlier. Some people are

741
00:40:20.960 --> 00:40:25.679
<v Speaker 2>saying FT's not fun and it's just you pushing a button,

742
00:40:25.719 --> 00:40:28.400
<v Speaker 2>and I kind of agree with them. On the other hand,

743
00:40:28.440 --> 00:40:31.159
<v Speaker 2>it has its place, you know, when I'm out there

744
00:40:31.280 --> 00:40:33.400
<v Speaker 2>in one activating a park, I find it more fun

745
00:40:33.440 --> 00:40:37.079
<v Speaker 2>to do voice. When you're running FTA. You just click

746
00:40:37.119 --> 00:40:39.760
<v Speaker 2>a button and wait a minute and then yay, I

747
00:40:39.800 --> 00:40:43.760
<v Speaker 2>got a contact. However, if you're looking to do some DX,

748
00:40:43.920 --> 00:40:46.719
<v Speaker 2>you know FT eight is where it's that, especially on

749
00:40:46.760 --> 00:40:49.400
<v Speaker 2>twenty meters. There's a lot of DX on there that

750
00:40:49.559 --> 00:40:53.719
<v Speaker 2>it's hard to pull those voice contacts out. And then

751
00:40:54.000 --> 00:40:57.079
<v Speaker 2>one of the place for me I really enjoyed is well,

752
00:40:57.079 --> 00:40:59.880
<v Speaker 2>we're just sitting around at camp at night, smoking a

753
00:41:00.079 --> 00:41:03.280
<v Speaker 2>cigar and relaxing and just click a button and we're

754
00:41:03.320 --> 00:41:05.480
<v Speaker 2>still doing ham radio.

755
00:41:06.000 --> 00:41:08.679
<v Speaker 1>So I find that FT eight is fun in two

756
00:41:08.679 --> 00:41:14.000
<v Speaker 1>different ways. Number One, Yeah, if you go out, so

757
00:41:14.039 --> 00:41:16.079
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna I'm gonna talk about Poda here for more

758
00:41:16.079 --> 00:41:19.960
<v Speaker 1>than anything else. Okay, So on Poda. I go out

759
00:41:19.960 --> 00:41:21.920
<v Speaker 1>and I activate Poda and I get on sideband, and

760
00:41:21.960 --> 00:41:24.679
<v Speaker 1>I do you know, fifteen hundred hundred fifty contacts whatever,

761
00:41:26.840 --> 00:41:28.880
<v Speaker 1>and unless I'm just trying to get activated and leave.

762
00:41:28.920 --> 00:41:31.280
<v Speaker 1>But if I'm going to camp overnight like we did

763
00:41:31.320 --> 00:41:35.519
<v Speaker 1>in Big Ben National Park last week, I find that,

764
00:41:35.559 --> 00:41:38.559
<v Speaker 1>you know, I get tired of talking and I'm like, eh,

765
00:41:38.679 --> 00:41:40.880
<v Speaker 1>but I want more contacts. So I get on FT

766
00:41:41.000 --> 00:41:43.679
<v Speaker 1>eight and I start making FT eight. I also like

767
00:41:43.800 --> 00:41:46.639
<v Speaker 1>the fact that you go into your potologue on PoTA

768
00:41:46.639 --> 00:41:53.239
<v Speaker 1>Dot app and you can see more activity than just sideband,

769
00:41:54.320 --> 00:41:57.119
<v Speaker 1>so you could see sideband, digital and CW so you

770
00:41:57.119 --> 00:41:59.320
<v Speaker 1>can see all of that and it'll do you know.

771
00:41:59.559 --> 00:42:02.119
<v Speaker 1>I like doing different modes that way. So that's my

772
00:42:02.199 --> 00:42:04.760
<v Speaker 1>own personal preference. You guys, If you don't like that,

773
00:42:04.760 --> 00:42:06.719
<v Speaker 1>that's okay, there's nothing wrong with that. But that's that's

774
00:42:06.760 --> 00:42:08.320
<v Speaker 1>what that's kind of what I like about it.

775
00:42:08.760 --> 00:42:10.719
<v Speaker 2>I enjoyed at night, like you said, when I get

776
00:42:10.719 --> 00:42:14.519
<v Speaker 2>tired of talking, or I'm around the campsite of campfire

777
00:42:14.800 --> 00:42:17.840
<v Speaker 2>having fun with everyone, and I still want to play radio,

778
00:42:18.199 --> 00:42:20.000
<v Speaker 2>but I don't want to be off by myself to

779
00:42:20.000 --> 00:42:23.480
<v Speaker 2>saying c Q, c Q and c Q, right. I

780
00:42:23.920 --> 00:42:25.039
<v Speaker 2>enjoyment out of that.

781
00:42:25.360 --> 00:42:27.920
<v Speaker 1>Agreed, all right. So here's something I was. I was

782
00:42:28.000 --> 00:42:31.079
<v Speaker 1>kind of tinkering with this a little bit before the stream,

783
00:42:31.119 --> 00:42:34.000
<v Speaker 1>just kind of make sure I'm not gonna screw something up.

784
00:42:35.239 --> 00:42:37.880
<v Speaker 1>So right here on the left of this picture is

785
00:42:38.000 --> 00:42:39.760
<v Speaker 1>where you are. Now, this is the bottom side of

786
00:42:39.800 --> 00:42:44.519
<v Speaker 1>the board, which you can see right right here, and

787
00:42:44.639 --> 00:42:46.519
<v Speaker 1>right here where the circle is is where you put

788
00:42:46.559 --> 00:42:50.440
<v Speaker 1>the battery holder. And then these are where you put.

789
00:42:50.239 --> 00:42:53.760
<v Speaker 2>The uh these fourteen pins.

790
00:42:53.960 --> 00:42:55.639
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, the fourteen pin thing?

791
00:42:55.880 --> 00:42:58.639
<v Speaker 2>Now, what's way to put the fourteen pin?

792
00:42:59.199 --> 00:43:01.400
<v Speaker 1>I don't think that woe that one does not matter,

793
00:43:01.800 --> 00:43:03.880
<v Speaker 1>but the battery does matter because it's marked on the

794
00:43:03.880 --> 00:43:06.920
<v Speaker 1>board positive and negative. So this is the negative side.

795
00:43:06.960 --> 00:43:09.000
<v Speaker 1>This is the positive side. And you have so you

796
00:43:09.039 --> 00:43:10.719
<v Speaker 1>have to look on the battery and the battery is

797
00:43:10.760 --> 00:43:14.000
<v Speaker 1>marked positive on this end right here. So it matters

798
00:43:14.000 --> 00:43:16.360
<v Speaker 1>which way you put this hold. So it needs to

799
00:43:16.400 --> 00:43:19.519
<v Speaker 1>go that way, not the other way, because to line

800
00:43:19.559 --> 00:43:22.719
<v Speaker 1>up positive to positive obviously. So and this is a

801
00:43:22.760 --> 00:43:25.239
<v Speaker 1>really tight fit. I was trying to get the pins

802
00:43:25.239 --> 00:43:28.039
<v Speaker 1>turned a little bit or just kind of bent a

803
00:43:28.079 --> 00:43:30.519
<v Speaker 1>little bit before the stream storted, but does are really there?

804
00:43:30.519 --> 00:43:33.079
<v Speaker 1>It is okay, nice, So it just barely fits in there,

805
00:43:33.119 --> 00:43:34.760
<v Speaker 1>but then it holds itself. So I'm just gonna turn

806
00:43:34.760 --> 00:43:38.280
<v Speaker 1>over and solder it because it's gonna be easy while.

807
00:43:38.119 --> 00:43:41.559
<v Speaker 2>You're doing that. Ken Simpson said he did his first

808
00:43:41.599 --> 00:43:46.400
<v Speaker 2>PoTA activation today fourteen contacts and learned a lot good excellent.

809
00:43:46.840 --> 00:43:50.440
<v Speaker 2>Congratulations on your first activation and being successful on your

810
00:43:50.480 --> 00:43:53.320
<v Speaker 2>first activation. Sometimes it doesn't happen on your first one,

811
00:43:53.719 --> 00:43:57.079
<v Speaker 2>and you will always learn to keep seconds of everything

812
00:43:57.639 --> 00:43:58.760
<v Speaker 2>on doing charge of it.

813
00:43:59.000 --> 00:44:00.199
<v Speaker 1>That's the truth of it right there.

814
00:44:01.519 --> 00:44:04.159
<v Speaker 2>Oh, thank y'all. I see a bunch of links here

815
00:44:04.159 --> 00:44:09.440
<v Speaker 2>in discord with helping hands. Let me get those loaded.

816
00:44:10.119 --> 00:44:11.920
<v Speaker 3>All right?

817
00:44:11.960 --> 00:44:15.920
<v Speaker 1>We got that it's good there. Now this one here

818
00:44:16.360 --> 00:44:20.519
<v Speaker 1>this uh so if we go down here, so it

819
00:44:20.599 --> 00:44:24.239
<v Speaker 1>says to put these uh one right here down at

820
00:44:24.239 --> 00:44:26.440
<v Speaker 1>this part right here, it says one six pin, two

821
00:44:26.519 --> 00:44:29.400
<v Speaker 1>eight pens, and one ten pin are Dueno style male

822
00:44:29.519 --> 00:44:31.920
<v Speaker 1>headers cut from a forty pin mail header. That's what

823
00:44:31.960 --> 00:44:36.880
<v Speaker 1>it says right there. And I'm always like, okay, which

824
00:44:36.920 --> 00:44:39.440
<v Speaker 1>side goes where? I don't know. But if you look

825
00:44:39.440 --> 00:44:43.880
<v Speaker 1>at this picture right here, it shows that the long

826
00:44:44.000 --> 00:44:49.679
<v Speaker 1>pin and the the header itself, the black part of

827
00:44:49.719 --> 00:44:56.159
<v Speaker 1>the header go on the bottom right here. So that's

828
00:44:56.159 --> 00:44:58.079
<v Speaker 1>what that that's what that's showing me. So I'm gonna

829
00:44:58.119 --> 00:45:02.280
<v Speaker 1>solder mine on. I've got this one broken down. This

830
00:45:02.320 --> 00:45:08.400
<v Speaker 1>one here, that's the right number. And then yeah, I'm

831
00:45:08.400 --> 00:45:13.320
<v Speaker 1>not sure. I think I might have gotten there's enough

832
00:45:13.320 --> 00:45:16.480
<v Speaker 1>for that one there. Oh no, that should be okay, okay,

833
00:45:16.559 --> 00:45:19.920
<v Speaker 1>one two three, four, five, six seven eight on that one,

834
00:45:21.440 --> 00:45:30.159
<v Speaker 1>two three seven eight, on that one that was nine,

835
00:45:30.199 --> 00:45:32.199
<v Speaker 1>I think yeah, it was one too many.

836
00:45:32.559 --> 00:45:37.320
<v Speaker 2>M one too many. Oh that means you got to

837
00:45:37.440 --> 00:45:38.679
<v Speaker 2>pull one and put No.

838
00:45:39.760 --> 00:45:42.719
<v Speaker 1>I think that there they gave me more than I need.

839
00:45:42.880 --> 00:45:46.039
<v Speaker 1>I believe I counted, So I think I'm okay.

840
00:45:46.840 --> 00:45:53.599
<v Speaker 2>Don welcome to the chat. Okay, what's the frequency? Says

841
00:45:53.599 --> 00:45:56.199
<v Speaker 2>So we finally got the Alaska firmed contact and worked

842
00:45:56.280 --> 00:46:01.119

00:46:18.960 --> 00:46:22.679
<v Speaker 2>can do FT eight during the holidays, and I laugh.

847
00:46:22.760 --> 00:46:25.920
<v Speaker 2>I'm like FT eight and also this is correct. I

848
00:46:26.000 --> 00:46:29.440
<v Speaker 2>probably will be on the band's Friday, not Friday Saturday,

849
00:46:29.960 --> 00:46:32.199
<v Speaker 2>because that's when we're doing our family get together and

850
00:46:32.239 --> 00:46:37.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna go hide where they start talking politics politics.

851
00:46:37.880 --> 00:46:40.679
<v Speaker 1>That's a good day. Yeah, start family starts talking politics,

852
00:46:40.760 --> 00:46:41.440
<v Speaker 1>go to FT eight.

853
00:46:41.920 --> 00:46:45.159
<v Speaker 2>Oh you know, my stepdad is an amateur radio. He

854
00:46:45.280 --> 00:46:49.239
<v Speaker 2>has his life and a radio. Yes, so when they

855
00:46:49.239 --> 00:46:51.320
<v Speaker 2>start doing that, I'm like, okay, and I sneak off

856
00:46:51.360 --> 00:46:54.559
<v Speaker 2>and turn on the radio in his office and start working.

857
00:46:57.000 --> 00:47:01.320
<v Speaker 1>There's nothing wrong with that. He's the one who wy

858
00:47:01.320 --> 00:47:03.239
<v Speaker 1>don't you plug his morse monkey? Real quick, Frank?

859
00:47:03.840 --> 00:47:09.360
<v Speaker 2>Right, is that still on your shop?

860
00:47:09.480 --> 00:47:11.440
<v Speaker 1>It's on there somewhere, but I couldn't tell you where

861
00:47:11.480 --> 00:47:13.480
<v Speaker 1>it is. Right now because everything's been moved around.

862
00:47:14.199 --> 00:47:16.719
<v Speaker 2>Okay, okay, it'll.

863
00:47:16.159 --> 00:47:19.599
<v Speaker 1>Be it'll be under like radios or kit. I might

864
00:47:19.639 --> 00:47:20.480
<v Speaker 1>have a kit section.

865
00:47:20.519 --> 00:47:23.599
<v Speaker 2>I don't know yet, but that would be the perfect

866
00:47:23.599 --> 00:47:31.840
<v Speaker 2>transition for something else I'm looking. I'm looking categories antennas,

867
00:47:32.519 --> 00:47:46.320
<v Speaker 2>bug out kits, solar shirts, monkey, monkey, monkey, bam. Here

868
00:47:46.360 --> 00:47:50.800
<v Speaker 2>it is. This is my stepdad's Morse Monkey, a kit

869
00:47:50.880 --> 00:47:53.199
<v Speaker 2>that you can put together for one hundred dollars to

870
00:47:53.599 --> 00:47:58.719
<v Speaker 2>learn amateur or I'm sorry CWW. I was about to

871
00:47:58.760 --> 00:47:59.800
<v Speaker 2>call amateur CW.

872
00:48:00.679 --> 00:48:03.960
<v Speaker 1>Well, well it is. It is amateur CW. That's true.

873
00:48:04.159 --> 00:48:07.280
<v Speaker 2>Yep, yep. There's a great kit to help you learn

874
00:48:07.360 --> 00:48:11.880
<v Speaker 2>CW skills and there's several different modes and practices to

875
00:48:11.920 --> 00:48:15.199
<v Speaker 2>strengthen your skills. And plus it is a fun kit

876
00:48:15.239 --> 00:48:17.920
<v Speaker 2>to put together. And I've done it and it's fun.

877
00:48:19.039 --> 00:48:19.960
<v Speaker 2>It is fun.

878
00:48:20.480 --> 00:48:21.039
<v Speaker 1>It's a good kit.

879
00:48:22.079 --> 00:48:29.320
<v Speaker 2>Then, since we're over here, these is magnetic helping hands

880
00:48:29.320 --> 00:48:34.000
<v Speaker 2>sets like this, and what's the other one? Uh, I'm

881
00:48:34.000 --> 00:48:38.760
<v Speaker 2>gonna come back to this one. I find it's harder

882
00:48:39.199 --> 00:48:42.880
<v Speaker 2>and it takes more time to get these stupid clamps

883
00:48:42.920 --> 00:48:45.599
<v Speaker 2>clamp correctly tightened up to hold the thing that you

884
00:48:45.639 --> 00:48:50.639
<v Speaker 2>can solderate the magnifying glass. Okay, I kind of do

885
00:48:50.760 --> 00:48:56.440
<v Speaker 2>like the magnifying glass. That does help. However, I think

886
00:48:56.480 --> 00:48:59.440
<v Speaker 2>this is what Josh was showing on his stream. This

887
00:48:59.519 --> 00:49:03.400
<v Speaker 2>is the circa board holder. I think that's pretty cool.

888
00:49:03.440 --> 00:49:06.800
<v Speaker 1>That does show some promise I've got. I've got that

889
00:49:06.920 --> 00:49:09.239
<v Speaker 1>it is if you're doing an act like this, circuit

890
00:49:09.280 --> 00:49:12.559
<v Speaker 1>board right here would probably be that's probably a good

891
00:49:12.599 --> 00:49:14.280
<v Speaker 1>thing to be using right now. I didn't. I just

892
00:49:14.280 --> 00:49:17.159
<v Speaker 1>didn't feel like using it because again, it's it's really

893
00:49:17.159 --> 00:49:19.760
<v Speaker 1>a preference of what you want to do. Do you

894
00:49:19.800 --> 00:49:22.599
<v Speaker 1>want to do if you find it more helpful to

895
00:49:22.679 --> 00:49:25.039
<v Speaker 1>use that than use it. If not, then don't you know.

896
00:49:26.599 --> 00:49:31.800
<v Speaker 2>But most of these I've used various types of them,

897
00:49:32.400 --> 00:49:36.480
<v Speaker 2>and it just takes longer to get that clip hold

898
00:49:36.599 --> 00:49:39.280
<v Speaker 2>correctly at that right position so you can solder it.

899
00:49:39.840 --> 00:49:44.079
<v Speaker 2>Then it's really worth I wish, I wish, I want

900
00:49:44.119 --> 00:49:47.320
<v Speaker 2>them because getting it right place right is such a

901
00:49:47.360 --> 00:49:52.119
<v Speaker 2>pain in the butt. These were much more easier to use.

902
00:49:52.840 --> 00:49:55.920
<v Speaker 2>There was another one that had was it the one

903
00:49:56.519 --> 00:49:59.599
<v Speaker 2>camera again I just closed.

904
00:50:01.079 --> 00:50:02.440
<v Speaker 1>I got you Okay.

905
00:50:03.960 --> 00:50:06.519
<v Speaker 2>This one my friend has and it seemed to be

906
00:50:06.519 --> 00:50:09.679
<v Speaker 2>a little easier because you can move the wire around

907
00:50:09.719 --> 00:50:14.159
<v Speaker 2>and it holds in position, which is nice. So the

908
00:50:14.199 --> 00:50:18.239
<v Speaker 2>other ones you had to unbolt, bolt, clamp down over here,

909
00:50:18.320 --> 00:50:22.719
<v Speaker 2>plamp down. Then when you release it, they move. Yeah,

910
00:50:22.800 --> 00:50:25.280
<v Speaker 2>they move, literally they move when you let go.

911
00:50:25.679 --> 00:50:30.320
<v Speaker 1>Come on now, yeah, yeah, it's a little bit crooked.

912
00:50:31.519 --> 00:50:34.159
<v Speaker 2>But this one is much nicer that you don't have

913
00:50:34.199 --> 00:50:37.039
<v Speaker 2>all the bolts to for all the joints to lock

914
00:50:37.119 --> 00:50:43.559
<v Speaker 2>it in place. Yeah yeah, maybe maybe, but it's not

915
00:50:43.719 --> 00:50:48.480
<v Speaker 2>in the budget yet. However, the the circuit board, I'm

916
00:50:48.519 --> 00:50:50.800
<v Speaker 2>going to consider that because I really do enjoy kits.

917
00:50:50.840 --> 00:50:53.800
<v Speaker 2>I got another kit in the mail and I'm going

918
00:50:53.880 --> 00:50:58.280
<v Speaker 2>to be putting it together later this month. It is

919
00:50:58.440 --> 00:51:03.559
<v Speaker 2>in a ten kit. Good Okay, I am really enjoyed.

920
00:51:03.719 --> 00:51:05.920
<v Speaker 2>I really enjoyed doing those a tent kuts. Now I'm

921
00:51:05.960 --> 00:51:08.519
<v Speaker 2>almost with Mike. Where I've got my I have so

922
00:51:08.679 --> 00:51:12.000
<v Speaker 2>many in feds and other antennas, like I need another

923
00:51:12.079 --> 00:51:14.039
<v Speaker 2>bag or box to put these in.

924
00:51:16.679 --> 00:51:19.400
<v Speaker 1>I've got my carten that I took to the to

925
00:51:19.440 --> 00:51:24.079
<v Speaker 1>the park when we were down there in Galveston last month,

926
00:51:25.079 --> 00:51:28.599
<v Speaker 1>and I strung the wire out and I measured it.

927
00:51:28.599 --> 00:51:33.119
<v Speaker 1>It's that, Uh what's the one? What's the uh? It's

928
00:51:33.119 --> 00:51:36.840
<v Speaker 1>the nine to one in random wire. So they said,

929
00:51:37.039 --> 00:51:39.280
<v Speaker 1>I think it's like forty one feet is the main

930
00:51:39.320 --> 00:51:43.760
<v Speaker 1>element in like a seven or eleven foot I don't remember, uh, counterpoise.

931
00:51:43.800 --> 00:51:45.199
<v Speaker 1>So I measured all that out and put all that

932
00:51:45.280 --> 00:51:47.000
<v Speaker 1>together and it's ready to go. I didn't get a

933
00:51:47.039 --> 00:51:49.960
<v Speaker 1>chance to actually use it. But when I get when

934
00:51:50.000 --> 00:51:52.880
<v Speaker 1>I get back out to that park, I'm gonna use that.

935
00:51:54.559 --> 00:51:57.079
<v Speaker 2>I just thought of something. I was going to clean

936
00:51:57.159 --> 00:52:04.400
<v Speaker 2>up this window. Uh not discord, where's zoom? Get away zoom?

937
00:52:05.159 --> 00:52:09.239
<v Speaker 2>If this board had a secondary component so when you

938
00:52:09.239 --> 00:52:11.639
<v Speaker 2>flip it over, because you're soldering on the top side, right,

939
00:52:12.000 --> 00:52:14.360
<v Speaker 2>and when you flip it over, the component component will

940
00:52:14.400 --> 00:52:18.039
<v Speaker 2>fall out on the on the circuit board holder. If

941
00:52:18.039 --> 00:52:20.159
<v Speaker 2>it had like a helping hand or something that you

942
00:52:20.199 --> 00:52:23.719
<v Speaker 2>can turn over and just say and then holds the

943
00:52:24.280 --> 00:52:27.960
<v Speaker 2>thing up, the capasitor up, the something whatever you're soldering

944
00:52:28.039 --> 00:52:29.920
<v Speaker 2>up so you don't have to hold it. Oh, that'd

945
00:52:29.960 --> 00:52:31.199
<v Speaker 2>be pretty cool, all.

946
00:52:31.199 --> 00:52:34.000
<v Speaker 1>Right, No, I agreed, Yeah, no, and it and it

947
00:52:34.239 --> 00:52:41.159
<v Speaker 1>would work that way. It worked, just find that way. Yeah,

948
00:52:41.519 --> 00:52:45.280
<v Speaker 1>so we'll see. But uh uh again, I've I've got one.

949
00:52:45.320 --> 00:52:47.119
<v Speaker 1>I just I just opted not to use it today

950
00:52:47.119 --> 00:52:52.480
<v Speaker 1>for whatever reason. So let's see put two off of

951
00:52:52.519 --> 00:52:53.800
<v Speaker 1>that one.

952
00:52:55.280 --> 00:53:01.679
<v Speaker 2>Two, Jeff, when you clamp hearts, be careful where you

953
00:53:01.840 --> 00:53:05.480
<v Speaker 2>are clamping them. If they clamp is actually part of

954
00:53:05.519 --> 00:53:07.320
<v Speaker 2>the solder or clamp, it will keep up.

955
00:53:07.320 --> 00:53:11.880
<v Speaker 1>And it's true. Ye yep, that is a good point.

956
00:53:11.960 --> 00:53:18.360
<v Speaker 2>Also, Don says, tape will do it. Yep. That I'm

957
00:53:18.360 --> 00:53:20.480
<v Speaker 2>clicking on these the highlight. I'm like, but it's not

958
00:53:20.559 --> 00:53:21.119
<v Speaker 2>my strength.

959
00:53:21.559 --> 00:53:23.239
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, no, it's okay. Sorry.

960
00:53:23.360 --> 00:53:29.639
<v Speaker 2>Uh, that's why you bend the wire. Yeah, you could

961
00:53:29.679 --> 00:53:31.800
<v Speaker 2>do that too, but bending the wire to hold in

962
00:53:31.840 --> 00:53:34.559
<v Speaker 2>the place. But depending on what you're doing. Like these

963
00:53:34.599 --> 00:53:37.719
<v Speaker 2>forty pins that Jason Soldery, there's no wire to bend.

964
00:53:38.639 --> 00:53:39.719
<v Speaker 2>They're all straight wire.

965
00:53:40.119 --> 00:53:42.960
<v Speaker 1>Correct. It's not wire, really, it's just pins.

966
00:53:43.760 --> 00:53:45.760
<v Speaker 2>No, a pin is a wire is cut shortly.

967
00:53:46.079 --> 00:53:49.559
<v Speaker 1>Technically, it's not stranded wire though.

968
00:53:50.079 --> 00:53:55.440
<v Speaker 2>Mm hmm. Painter's tape raph says, yep, that's a good idea.

969
00:53:55.519 --> 00:53:58.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you know, I've actually used that before. I've used

970
00:53:58.000 --> 00:54:00.559
<v Speaker 1>painters tape before. It is good idea.

971
00:54:13.639 --> 00:54:16.360
<v Speaker 2>I don't know why my discord's not discording the sound

972
00:54:16.400 --> 00:54:17.960
<v Speaker 2>to people sending me messages.

973
00:54:20.079 --> 00:54:20.559
<v Speaker 1>I don't know.

974
00:54:20.840 --> 00:54:24.000
<v Speaker 2>That's a little annoying. I'm about to reinstall this whole

975
00:54:24.000 --> 00:54:30.239
<v Speaker 2>computer and just go fresh again, maybe upgraded all the

976
00:54:30.239 --> 00:54:36.000
<v Speaker 2>way to eight or eleven. I mean, there's a couple

977
00:54:36.000 --> 00:54:38.639
<v Speaker 2>of things that I find annoying. Chrome is acting up.

978
00:54:39.320 --> 00:54:46.239
<v Speaker 2>I just yeah, thinking about starting fresh. Yeah, yep, ten

979
00:54:46.280 --> 00:54:49.440
<v Speaker 2>dollars super chat from don N five s KT says

980
00:54:49.880 --> 00:54:53.199
<v Speaker 2>nice soldering job. And that's a compliment coming from coming.

981
00:54:53.079 --> 00:54:55.519
<v Speaker 1>From don that's really good. Thank you done. Yeah. I

982
00:54:55.519 --> 00:54:57.239
<v Speaker 1>don't think it's all that not. I mean it's it's

983
00:54:57.320 --> 00:54:59.960
<v Speaker 1>it's in there, it hasn't fallen out, so you know

984
00:55:00.400 --> 00:55:00.920
<v Speaker 1>that's good.

985
00:55:01.239 --> 00:55:03.519
<v Speaker 2>Well, if it's more, then he'll give you money for

986
00:55:03.840 --> 00:55:07.360
<v Speaker 2>the right and disoldery stuff.

987
00:55:07.559 --> 00:55:12.519
<v Speaker 1>Right, yeah, exactly exactly. So okay, all right, here we go.

988
00:55:13.719 --> 00:55:16.679
<v Speaker 1>So okay, so the next one is uh okay, So

989
00:55:16.800 --> 00:55:20.239
<v Speaker 1>this is the disco what they call the disco board, uh,

990
00:55:20.280 --> 00:55:22.800
<v Speaker 1>the audio interface board, which is the part that you

991
00:55:22.880 --> 00:55:27.079
<v Speaker 1>get from digitke or mauser. They said they didn't give

992
00:55:27.079 --> 00:55:29.760
<v Speaker 1>a link for mauser, but they did for digitke and

993
00:55:30.039 --> 00:55:31.840
<v Speaker 1>has the Ethernet port on it right there. So this

994
00:55:32.000 --> 00:55:35.480
<v Speaker 1>is the board that goes next, and then it tells

995
00:55:35.480 --> 00:55:39.239
<v Speaker 1>you how to assemble the disco board and r F board,

996
00:55:39.239 --> 00:55:41.199
<v Speaker 1>and this is the r F board here. You know

997
00:55:41.280 --> 00:55:44.079
<v Speaker 1>this is an r F board because it has the

998
00:55:44.159 --> 00:55:46.280
<v Speaker 1>SMA port, it has our F coming out of it.

999
00:55:46.840 --> 00:55:49.599
<v Speaker 1>So and then it shows you how to assemble it

1000
00:55:49.639 --> 00:55:53.840
<v Speaker 1>there kind of like that goes through. That step.

1001
00:55:55.440 --> 00:55:58.119
<v Speaker 2>Is those additional things that you put on there are

1002
00:55:58.159 --> 00:56:00.320
<v Speaker 2>the no.

1003
00:56:00.559 --> 00:56:02.599
<v Speaker 1>In fact, it says the first step to do on

1004
00:56:02.639 --> 00:56:07.519
<v Speaker 1>this disco board is cut thirty millimeters one and a

1005
00:56:07.559 --> 00:56:11.679
<v Speaker 1>quarter inch along three different colored flexible cables. Solder those

1006
00:56:11.679 --> 00:56:15.239
<v Speaker 1>cables to the audio out connector IQ and ground pins

1007
00:56:15.280 --> 00:56:18.800
<v Speaker 1>for the RF board. So basically, just take some cable

1008
00:56:18.840 --> 00:56:21.519
<v Speaker 1>of your own and soldered on there. He's got yellow,

1009
00:56:21.559 --> 00:56:24.719
<v Speaker 1>black and blue on his right here, So you have

1010
00:56:24.800 --> 00:56:27.840
<v Speaker 1>to do that and then it kind of looks like

1011
00:56:27.880 --> 00:56:30.480
<v Speaker 1>that when it's done, or well, then you solder it

1012
00:56:30.559 --> 00:56:34.360
<v Speaker 1>to the other board when it's done, I guess, And

1013
00:56:34.599 --> 00:56:37.280
<v Speaker 1>it says sm on the bottom of it. There. That's

1014
00:56:38.320 --> 00:56:40.320
<v Speaker 1>where is that? See I don't even see that on here.

1015
00:56:44.599 --> 00:56:46.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm not sure where that is. I'm have to figure

1016
00:56:46.440 --> 00:56:50.679
<v Speaker 1>that out. Oh, that's probably this little guy right here.

1017
00:56:51.039 --> 00:56:54.400
<v Speaker 1>It came with this guy. So there's a couple other

1018
00:56:54.400 --> 00:56:56.639
<v Speaker 1>pieces I haven't soldered on yet. These are all parts

1019
00:56:56.679 --> 00:57:03.320
<v Speaker 1>of that or so anyway, Yeah, it tells you how

1020
00:57:03.320 --> 00:57:05.519
<v Speaker 1>to do that and put all that together and there,

1021
00:57:07.519 --> 00:57:09.079
<v Speaker 1>and then it shows you kind of kind of like

1022
00:57:09.079 --> 00:57:10.760
<v Speaker 1>like it'll kind of look like that without the top

1023
00:57:10.800 --> 00:57:12.159
<v Speaker 1>on it. And then once you put the top or

1024
00:57:12.320 --> 00:57:16.480
<v Speaker 1>well the boughty technically that's the bottom there, and then

1025
00:57:16.480 --> 00:57:19.000
<v Speaker 1>that's what it looks like with the SD card, antenna

1026
00:57:19.039 --> 00:57:24.320
<v Speaker 1>connector all that kind of good stuff, bless you. So

1027
00:57:24.559 --> 00:57:27.719
<v Speaker 1>that's about as far as I can get on this tonight.

1028
00:57:27.960 --> 00:57:31.119
<v Speaker 1>All right, I've got the two switches on it. I've

1029
00:57:31.159 --> 00:57:34.199
<v Speaker 1>got the audio out cable here or the power out

1030
00:57:34.280 --> 00:57:42.880
<v Speaker 1>rather oh god, yeah, SMA connector and the four the

1031
00:57:42.880 --> 00:57:44.760

<v Speaker 2>when you were sitting the manual focus and focused on

1073
00:59:53.519 --> 00:59:55.800

01:00:18.159 --> 01:00:21.679
<v Speaker 1>pick up one of these pretty pretty nominally priced, pretty

1082
01:00:21.679 --> 01:00:24.119
<v Speaker 1>reasonably priced kit And it doesn't look like he's going

1083
01:00:24.199 --> 01:00:25.599
<v Speaker 1>to be that that difficult to put to.

1084
01:00:25.679 --> 01:00:28.559
<v Speaker 2>One hundred dollar is not that bad?

1085
01:00:28.760 --> 01:00:30.480
<v Speaker 1>No, No, I don't think so at all.

1086
01:00:31.159 --> 01:00:36.719
<v Speaker 2>So good fun mm hmm. Good Paul Prepp pant Paul says,

1087
01:00:36.760 --> 01:00:42.159
<v Speaker 2>got my new truck, bed, tent and hangars fan.

1088
01:00:43.159 --> 01:00:47.440
<v Speaker 1>So he's getting ready good good, getting ready good good.

1089
01:00:47.719 --> 01:00:50.239
<v Speaker 2>Hanging out with Paul I don't think he's hung out

1090
01:00:50.280 --> 01:00:51.800
<v Speaker 2>with us at night. He's gonna be in.

1091
01:00:52.079 --> 01:00:57.599
<v Speaker 1>He was it. He was at winterfield Day. He yeah, yeah, yeah,

1092
01:00:57.719 --> 01:00:58.800
<v Speaker 1>he was at winterfield Day.

1093
01:00:59.360 --> 01:01:02.760
<v Speaker 2>I think he miss the first night of drinking. That's

1094
01:01:02.800 --> 01:01:05.320
<v Speaker 2>always the big yeah.

1095
01:01:05.679 --> 01:01:08.440
<v Speaker 1>Don I have seen the z bit X. Yes, I

1096
01:01:08.519 --> 01:01:10.639
<v Speaker 1>have the nest bit X version two over there. I

1097
01:01:10.639 --> 01:01:13.039
<v Speaker 1>think he has the version three out now, that's the

1098
01:01:13.039 --> 01:01:14.840
<v Speaker 1>one that he that he came up with last year.

1099
01:01:15.000 --> 01:01:18.360
<v Speaker 1>I have seen the z bit X and honestly, it's

1100
01:01:18.360 --> 01:01:20.880
<v Speaker 1>probably one of those things that I'll probably just be

1101
01:01:21.079 --> 01:01:23.760
<v Speaker 1>forced to buy at ham benchon on four days in May.

1102
01:01:23.800 --> 01:01:26.440
<v Speaker 1>This is coming next month, because I'll see it and

1103
01:01:26.440 --> 01:01:28.639
<v Speaker 1>I'll be like, oh, that's cool, I'm just gonna buy that.

1104
01:01:28.880 --> 01:01:32.320
<v Speaker 1>So and I think Josh built the QMX last night,

1105
01:01:32.960 --> 01:01:36.639
<v Speaker 1>which they announced a single side band. He's been talking

1106
01:01:36.639 --> 01:01:37.840
<v Speaker 1>about that for like a year and a half. The

1107
01:01:37.920 --> 01:01:41.320
<v Speaker 1>single sideman is supposed to be added to that that

1108
01:01:41.440 --> 01:01:44.440
<v Speaker 1>transceiver at some point, and I was I did not

1109
01:01:44.519 --> 01:01:46.679
<v Speaker 1>watch Josh's live stream last night it was out, but

1110
01:01:46.800 --> 01:01:49.559
<v Speaker 1>I saw his notification come across my stream and it

1111
01:01:49.559 --> 01:01:52.800
<v Speaker 1>says single sideban on the QMX, let's build one. So

1112
01:01:52.800 --> 01:01:54.599
<v Speaker 1>I assume that went. I hope that went well for

1113
01:01:54.679 --> 01:01:59.159
<v Speaker 1>him last night. But yeah, so I and I have

1114
01:01:59.199 --> 01:02:02.679
<v Speaker 1>a QMX kit and it's a lot more complicated than

1115
01:02:02.679 --> 01:02:04.480
<v Speaker 1>this one is. I just put it that way. One

1116
01:02:04.480 --> 01:02:05.760
<v Speaker 1>of these days, I might try to build it.

1117
01:02:05.800 --> 01:02:06.199
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

1118
01:02:07.159 --> 01:02:08.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm kind of I kind of jealous of Mike because

1119
01:02:08.840 --> 01:02:12.039
<v Speaker 1>he just got them to build his, and it took

1120
01:02:12.119 --> 01:02:13.840
<v Speaker 1>him an extra few months and then they send it

1121
01:02:13.880 --> 01:02:16.239
<v Speaker 1>to him built, so he's already gone out and used it.

1122
01:02:16.280 --> 01:02:19.639
<v Speaker 1>But oh well, that's just how it is.

1123
01:02:19.880 --> 01:02:20.599
<v Speaker 2>Mike built one.

1124
01:02:21.599 --> 01:02:23.719
<v Speaker 1>No, he bought one and had them build it.

1125
01:02:24.239 --> 01:02:27.440
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, cheater. Yeah, but that's what you get for

1126
01:02:27.480 --> 01:02:28.639
<v Speaker 2>those Matt guys.

1127
01:02:29.079 --> 01:02:31.880
<v Speaker 1>Uh yeah, Mike's good at building kids. He just didn't

1128
01:02:31.880 --> 01:02:34.800
<v Speaker 1>build that one for whatever reason. And I have the

1129
01:02:34.880 --> 01:02:36.440
<v Speaker 1>kid and I've never built it, so I don't know.

1130
01:02:36.519 --> 01:02:39.880
<v Speaker 1>But whatever. It was a VOD premiere and it went

1131
01:02:39.960 --> 01:02:44.719
<v Speaker 1>well at least I think, okay, good.

1132
01:02:44.880 --> 01:02:47.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. I don't want to build stuff live. I'm very

1133
01:02:47.840 --> 01:02:50.920
<v Speaker 2>slow building. I don't know why.

1134
01:02:51.039 --> 01:02:53.000
<v Speaker 1>Well, see, and that's why I said up front. I

1135
01:02:53.039 --> 01:02:55.280
<v Speaker 1>was like, we're not going to finish this tonight. So

1136
01:02:55.320 --> 01:02:58.000
<v Speaker 1>it's just it's not going to be finished, which is okay.

1137
01:02:58.039 --> 01:02:59.440
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I didn't have all the pieces to finish

1138
01:02:59.519 --> 01:03:03.320
<v Speaker 1>it anyway, but but I wanted to, you know, at

1139
01:03:03.400 --> 01:03:05.119
<v Speaker 1>least start it. And I'll probably when I get that

1140
01:03:05.280 --> 01:03:07.559
<v Speaker 1>second board, and we'll probably do another live stream and

1141
01:03:07.559 --> 01:03:09.639
<v Speaker 1>start putting stuff together. I do have a live stream

1142
01:03:09.719 --> 01:03:13.840
<v Speaker 1>plan for the week after, yeah, two weeks from tonight,

1143
01:03:14.599 --> 01:03:17.440
<v Speaker 1>which will also be I have a high hand radio livestream,

1144
01:03:17.480 --> 01:03:19.360
<v Speaker 1>but it will also be our next RV chat live

1145
01:03:19.400 --> 01:03:22.239
<v Speaker 1>stream as well. So we're gonna do that that night.

1146
01:03:22.559 --> 01:03:26.599
<v Speaker 1>But sometime in sometime in May, we'll probably finish this

1147
01:03:26.639 --> 01:03:30.559
<v Speaker 1>one up. So you want to laugh, okay.

1148
01:03:30.760 --> 01:03:33.360
<v Speaker 2>I was looking over the comments and I did a

1149
01:03:33.400 --> 01:03:36.360
<v Speaker 2>short on the gigab This is the name of the video.

<v Speaker 2>A guy underneath that? Geez? This whole time I was

1155
01:03:55.400 --> 01:03:57.000

<v Speaker 2>I'm thinking and they're tugh. I just wrapped up this

1179
01:05:24.039 --> 01:05:29.320
<v Speaker 2>monthly farm to launch and got all that done. The

1180
01:05:29.519 --> 01:05:33.400
<v Speaker 2>live stream, I just finished talking about the winners and

1181
01:05:33.519 --> 01:05:36.840
<v Speaker 2>kind of looking back and how we tried to get

1182
01:05:36.880 --> 01:05:39.239
<v Speaker 2>all the images, and Robert came on and shared the

1183
01:05:39.280 --> 01:05:42.960
<v Speaker 2>images he was able to download. His working from home

1184
01:05:43.079 --> 01:05:45.519
<v Speaker 2>was able to let him get out more and to

1185
01:05:45.639 --> 01:05:53.760
<v Speaker 2>capture the images than me because I do team right, Hey,

1186
01:05:53.760 --> 01:05:56.159
<v Speaker 2>but it works sometimes it works out like that.

1187
01:05:57.079 --> 01:05:57.320
<v Speaker 1>Sure.

1188
01:05:58.159 --> 01:06:01.840
<v Speaker 2>Also going on in the average or ARIS amateur radio

1189
01:06:01.880 --> 01:06:06.719
<v Speaker 2>ISS currently to April sixteenth, there is also new slow scan.

1190
01:06:06.840 --> 01:06:10.159
<v Speaker 2>It was just being transmitted from the International Space.

1191
01:06:09.920 --> 01:06:11.840
<v Speaker 1>Station until the sixteenth.

1192
01:06:12.000 --> 01:06:16.239
<v Speaker 2>Until the sixteenth on what band? On twenty meters or

1193
01:06:16.559 --> 01:06:17.920
<v Speaker 2>from ISS two meters?

1194
01:06:17.960 --> 01:06:20.559
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, oh, on two meters okay.

1195
01:06:20.519 --> 01:06:23.039
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, these there are two meters four forty. I think

1196
01:06:23.039 --> 01:06:27.280
<v Speaker 2>it's they're on their two meter down link whatever their

1197
01:06:27.280 --> 01:06:32.920
<v Speaker 2>DOWNLAK frequency is. Okay, it's transmitting. So when the ISS

1198
01:06:33.000 --> 01:06:34.280
<v Speaker 2>is overhead, listen for it.

1199
01:06:35.199 --> 01:06:38.000
<v Speaker 1>I was, uh, when we were at Big Ben last week,

1200
01:06:38.039 --> 01:06:39.599
<v Speaker 1>I was tuning up and down the twenty meter band.

1201
01:06:39.679 --> 01:06:44.159
<v Speaker 1>There was some loud signals on fourteen two thirty for SSTV, Yeah,

1202
01:06:44.199 --> 01:06:47.000
<v Speaker 1>but I didn't I didn't stop, and I was like, Okay,

1203
01:06:47.000 --> 01:06:48.920
<v Speaker 1>I know what that is. I'll may come back to

1204
01:06:48.960 --> 01:06:51.199
<v Speaker 1>it later, but I was trying to find some post contacts.

1205
01:06:51.199 --> 01:06:54.039
<v Speaker 2>So if you're just like tuning around, you know, pull

1206
01:06:54.119 --> 01:06:56.679
<v Speaker 2>up your phone and go to that Robot thirty six

1207
01:06:56.800 --> 01:07:00.280
<v Speaker 2>app and just lay it on the speaker. That's what there.

1208
01:07:00.880 --> 01:07:02.679
<v Speaker 1>Well you remember when we did that at Ray Roberts.

<v Speaker 2>Sit there and throw it on top of the speaker.

1212
01:07:09.599 --> 01:07:11.920
<v Speaker 2>Wait for the images go. You don't have to have

1213
01:07:12.000 --> 01:07:12.920
<v Speaker 2>a computer.

1214
01:07:13.239 --> 01:07:19.000
<v Speaker 1>Right right true. Okay, guys, thanks for joining us tonight.

1215
01:07:21.559 --> 01:07:23.880
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, I did work n A Yo on a

1216
01:07:23.920 --> 01:07:26.280
<v Speaker 1>big bit. He was on sideband Believe or not nice

1217
01:07:26.639 --> 01:07:28.519

1221
01:07:38.480 --> 01:07:40.719
<v Speaker 1>I get the other pieces in and doesn't look like

1222
01:07:40.719 --> 01:07:43.119
<v Speaker 1>it's that complicated put together. In fact, I think programming

1223
01:07:43.159 --> 01:07:46.800
<v Speaker 1>and firmware download may be the most complicated part. So

1224
01:07:46.920 --> 01:07:49.719
<v Speaker 1>we'll see. Uh there's there's a little bit of information

1225
01:07:49.800 --> 01:07:52.880
<v Speaker 1>on that, but I've I've not read too deep into

1226
01:07:52.920 --> 01:07:54.760
<v Speaker 1>that yet, so we'll see what happens with that. But
