HAMIC, is a program designed to simplify a number of calculations commonly used by HAMs. It is designed for the HAM radio hobbyist, but may be useful to others as well. HAMIC has a simple to use, but powerful graphical interface that allows solving simple circuits such as resistors in series or parallel, or more complex circuits such as L networks or T networks. As well, other calculations such as SWR and reactance conversions are supported. Windows shareware.

Presents a dynamic, searchable database of shortwave broadcast schedules from around the world, enabling users to locate active stations or plan listening sessions based on scheduled transmission periods and frequencies. The resource details specific station names, such as _Radio Habana Cuba_, _Deutsche Welle_, and _All India Radio_, alongside their operational times and assigned kilohertz frequencies. It also incorporates a distance calculator, which leverages geographical coordinates to estimate propagation paths, though it notes occasional data inaccuracies leading to transmitters appearing in oceanic locations. The platform's development log highlights continuous updates, including the integration of new seasonal schedules like "A24 frequencies" and "B23 schedule," reflecting the fluid nature of shortwave broadcasting. It documents challenges with geolocation services, particularly concerning Google API changes that impacted distance calculations and required user-side browser configuration adjustments for optimal functionality. The site owner, VAXXi, frequently communicates these technical adjustments and database updates, often acknowledging user contributions and donations. Distinctively, the resource provides a historical perspective through its update archives, illustrating the evolution of shortwave listening over more than a decade since its inception in 2011. It also mentions specific events, such as the BBC adding shortwave broadcasts for Ukraine on 5875 kHz and 15735 kHz, demonstrating its responsiveness to global events impacting broadcast schedules. The site's commitment to user feedback is evident in its bug reporting and feature request mechanisms, contributing to its ongoing refinement.

A javascript online calculator of bearing and distances by G4VWL

Accurately determining an antenna's feedpoint impedance is crucial for optimal performance, especially when experimenting with new designs or making adjustments. While SWR meters provide basic information, a full complex impedance measurement reveals the resistive and reactive components, which are essential for proper matching. Modern antenna analyzers, like the _Palstar ZM30_ or MFJ259B, simplify this task, but measurements taken through a transmission line require careful interpretation due to impedance transformation. This resource details a calibration method to precisely account for the effects of the feedline. It explains how a transmission line can significantly alter the measured impedance, illustrating this phenomenon with a Smith Chart example where an 80m antenna's [22 + j6] Ohms feedpoint impedance transforms to [82 + j45] Ohms after a 10m line. The guide demonstrates using a transmission line calculator applet, such as the one by W9CF, to reverse this transformation. It outlines the process of calibrating a specific length of RG174 coax, showing how an initial 26ft estimate was refined to **25.85ft** to accurately predict a known 22 Ohm load, significantly improving accuracy over uncalibrated results.
