Accurate meteorological data is crucial for optimizing antenna performance, predicting propagation, and ensuring safe tower work. This resource provides a curated inventory of weather stations, including models like the _AcuRite Atlas_ with lightning detection and the _Ambient Weather WS-2902_ WiFi Smart Weather Station, which offer real-time data on environmental factors. The product listings detail specific features such as direct-to-Wi-Fi connectivity, rainfall tracking, and temperature insights, enabling informed decision-making for various amateur radio operations. The platform categorizes products by application, featuring weather stations tailored for home and backyard use, as well as more robust systems for farm and agriculture, which can be critical for field day operations or remote station monitoring. It also highlights _Made in USA_ options, emphasizing local manufacturing and support. Beyond weather instruments, the site also presents related surveillance technology, such as the _Waggle solar CCTV camera_, designed for outdoor reliability with an IP65 weatherproof rating. This integration allows for comprehensive monitoring of remote ham radio shacks or antenna sites, combining environmental data with visual oversight.

Developing operational amateur radio equipment for the 134 GHz band presents significant technical challenges, particularly in frequency generation and stability. This resource details the construction of a 134 GHz system, outlining its architecture with separate transmit (Tx) and receive (Rx) modules, each employing a local oscillator (LO) and RF head units. The system utilizes a dual Flann 50 GHz lens-type horn antenna configuration for optimal signal coupling. The transmit path incorporates an LMX2541 synthesizer chip operating at approximately 2.8 GHz, referenced by a 10 MHz double-oven Morion OCXO for exceptional stability. This signal is multiplied through a series of stages (X4, then X2) to generate a 22.4 GHz signal, which subsequently drives a dual series diode multiplier to produce the final X6 signal for 134 GHz operation. The receive side features an anti-parallel diode mixer coupled to a 144 MHz transceiver via a preamplifier, ensuring effective downconversion. Operational mode is CW, achieved by keying a multiplier stage. The project includes images of the Tx and Rx head units and describes a successful 3.5 km test with G8ACE, demonstrating stable signal tones due to PLLs locked to OCXOs at both ends, confirming the system's robust performance.

Approximately 30 active members comprise the _Racine Megacycle Club_, W9UDU, a long-standing amateur radio organization based in southeastern Wisconsin. The club provides a local hub for hams interested in various aspects of the hobby, including contesting, DXing, and technical experimentation. Regular meetings offer opportunities for knowledge exchange, project collaboration, and social interaction among licensed operators. The club actively participates in public service events and promotes emergency communications preparedness within the community. They often host field day operations, providing hands-on experience with portable setups and demonstrating the capabilities of amateur radio to the public. Membership is open to all licensed amateur radio operators. Their website serves as a central point for club news, event announcements, and contact information, supporting the club's mission to advance the art and science of amateur radio.

The Washington Totem Award recognizes licensed radio amateurs who submit proof of two-way radio contact with the state of Washington. Applicants must confirm contacts with a specified number of Washington counties, with different requirements for stations located within and outside the state. For example, stations outside Washington need 25 confirmed contacts from 25 different counties, while Washington stations require 15 contacts from 15 different counties. Contacts must be made after January 1, 1970, and may be established on any amateur band using any mode. QSL cards or other acceptable proof of contact must be submitted with the application. The award promotes activity within Washington state and encourages DXers to seek out contacts across its diverse geographical areas. Applications are processed by the Western Washington DX Club, which also manages the award rules and verification process.

This group is located just north of Reno, Nevada and primarily uses simplex frequencies.
