Hello SARC and Friends
I tested out the radio I built and received a strong SSB signal from Australia on 20 meters so I know the receiver is working well. To my surprise I worked a Minnesota station call sign N0W on 20 meters using the USB power source and the built in microphone. He replied my signal was weak but easy to copy through the noise. Excellent for half a watt.
So please get your coil winding fingers ready for some more fun tomorrow. Same place same time. I have a bunch of rulers for measuring the coil lengths.
The table setup will be the same as last time so we should be able to get off to quick start.
Thanks to all who participated in this build.
I will bring the radios with me for those who haven't yet pick theirs up.
See you tomorrow.
Duncan...
