SysLabs RadioControl is a software platform for radio device control and application development. It operates on _Windows_ versions from Windows 95 and Windows NT 4.0 through _Windows 11_. The software is available in Lite, Standard, and Professional editions, each including Frontpanel for direct radio control, a Frequency Database for management, and a Memory File for channel operations. Features include frequency identification, memory scanning, and graphical spectrum views with bitmap export capability. The Professional Edition supports multi-device control and utilizes radio device-internal scanners, achieving scan rates of **40-60 steps per second** compared to the RadioControl-internal scanner's **10-20 steps per second**. Supported devices for internal scanning include AOR AR-5000, AR-8200, AR-8600, AR-ONE, R&S EB200, and various Icom receivers and transceivers. RadioControl supports older devices such as ICOM IC-R71, IC-R7000, IC-706, IC-735, YAESU FRG-8800, and FRG-9600, extending their control capabilities. The platform offers APIs for integration and supports import/export with formats from VisualRadio, SCANcontrol, shoc Radio Manager, WiNRADiO, AOR ACEPAC-3A, as well as generic Text, CSV, and HTML.

For amateur radio operators seeking to confirm two-way radio contacts, a QSL card serves as a traditional, tangible verification. ON5UR QSL Printing provides a service for designing and printing high-quality, full-color QSL cards, including options for full-color backsides. The service offers various paper weights, such as 250, 280, 300, and 400 grams, allowing hams to select a card stock that meets their preferences for durability and feel. Pricing structures are detailed for different quantities, with 1000 cards starting at 96.00 Euro for 300-gram stock with gloss laminate, inclusive of design costs. The service includes free QSL cards with larger orders, such as 500 free cards with a 2000-card order, or 500 free cards with a 7000-card order. Shipping costs are categorized into six zones, primarily covering Europe, with specific pricing for countries like Belgium (Zone 1) and a request-based system for other regions and export conditions outside Europe. Testimonials from operators like M0URX highlight the design quality and quick turnaround, which are crucial for DXpedition QSL managers needing efficient processing.

The **Escort** series Tactical Carrying System provides robust protection and enhanced portability for popular HF transceivers, addressing the need for secure field operation and transport. These systems, designed for models such as the Yaesu FT-857D/891, FT-991, FT-817/818ND, and Icom IC-706/703/7000, IC-7300, feature military-grade construction with front panel protection and versatile carrying strap attachment points. Operators can confidently deploy their rigs in various environments, from SOTA activations to casual field days, knowing their equipment is safeguarded against bumps and impacts. Beyond tactical carriers, Portable Zero LLC also produces the **Sherpa Pack** for the Yaesu FT-817 and the Field Power 12 and Field Power 3 Battery Cases. These accessories complement portable operations by providing essential power solutions and additional carrying options, facilitating extended off-grid activity. Established no later than 2013, Portable Zero LLC manufactures its products in the USA, leveraging CAD design and CNC precision laser cutting for consistent quality. The company's commitment to enhancing portable amateur radio operations is evident in its specialized product line, available in finishes like Black Texture and OD Green.

Documents the OC1I and OC6I IOTA DXpeditions to Peru, specifically highlighting operations from SA-098 (Isla La Leona) and SA-076 (Isla Lobos de Afuera). The OC1I team logged over **8000 QSOs** from SA-076, while OC6I made 1400 QSOs from SA-098, despite challenging propagation conditions. The resource details the equipment used, including an _IC-7000_, an IC-706mkIIG, and a TS-440SAT, along with various antennas such as a 160m dipole, FD4, G5RV, and a multi-band vertical for 17m, 20m, 30m, and 40m. The DXpedition dates are specified: OC6I operated from SA-098 between December 28 and December 30, while OC1I was active from SA-076 from January 2 to January 7. Both operations are confirmed as valid for IOTA credit. The page also includes a video link for the OC6I operation and a photo gallery from the DXpedition. Feedback is welcomed, and the webmaster is identified as Bodo Fritsche, DL3OCH.

A 15-pin data switch, typically a rotary-knob type designed for DB-25 connectors, forms the basis for this microphone selector project. The resource details the conversion process, which involves replacing the original DB-25 connectors with **RJ-45** or **RJ-12** jacks to accommodate modern amateur radio microphones. It specifically addresses wiring for radios like the Icom IC-706 series (including the IC-7000 and IC-703) and Yaesu transceivers such as the FT-857, FT-897, FT-817, FT-7800, FT-7900, FT-8800, FT-8900, FTM-100, and FTM-400. The design ensures all microphone lines are switched straight through, with separate contacts for external speaker/headphone jacks, allowing simultaneous switching. The project emphasizes the practical application of switching between a headset for net control and a hand mic for rag-chewing without repeatedly plugging and unplugging cables. It highlights modifications to the original concept, such as eliminating a separate PTT jack by integrating PTT into headset cables and building the external speaker cable directly into the selector. The article provides guidance on managing the non-color-coded wiring often found in these data switches by soldering wires one by one from old to new connectors, ensuring correct pin alignment. This approach simplifies the conversion, making it accessible for hams seeking a functional and cost-effective mic switching solution.
