General Radio Discussion / Discord Chat Link & FAQs
« on: July 23, 2021, 1945 UTC »
Hey guys. As you know, our AWESOME and action-packed chat is now on Discord. In coming days I will post information that may be helpful to you. But generally getting on Discord is really easy! Join our Discord server here:
https://discord.gg/7bDbARJ
You can use Discord in a browser, or download the desktop app. There are also mobile apps for iPhone and Android, and they were awesome. I prefer the desktop app on my PC because I think it offers a slightly richer experience. But the browser site is almost exactly the same. I also use the iPhone app, since that's the phone I have. The official Discord download site is here:
https://discord.com/download
But again, you do not need to download an app; you can just click the link at the top of this page [this one: https://discord.gg/7bDbARJ] and Discord will load in your browser!

Very nice S9+ signal here and good audio, track playing is The Meaning (S.A.T. Remix) by Seven24 & Arma8 at 1640 UTC. Listening on the Airspy HF+ and an OCF dipole. Signal is an impressive 22 KHz wide.

I do like the ammo can idea. If you get a choice surplus military can the gasketing is unbeatable. I've bought cans from this place: https://ammocanman.com/

Oops! Didn't see someone had posted this already to the general forum a few days back. Well, I'll leave it here in this forum anyhow as it may be helpful specifically to this audience.

The RF Workbench / Chinese electronics products tested
« on: April 12, 2021, 1244 UTC »
This is a really interesting site authored by a Dutch electronics engineer. In it he extensively tests, you guessed it: Chinese electronics products. I posted this here in the RF workbench forum because a lot of his reviews are focused on inexpensive equipment you may find on an RF workbench: scopes, function generators, multimeters, power supplies and so on, as well as parts like caps and resistors.
The reviews are extremely detailed and and most conclude with a go/no-go opinion. Check out the site here:

You have to give him credit for having the cajones to say "when I committed adultery the women were old enough and we had a good time" lol.
This is good news for humanity but not great news for the shortwave stations that profited from his criminal cult *waves towards Monticello*
