TAHO.EXE, an open-source software, facilitates the creation of APRS maps for _UI-View_ by converting free data from _OpenStreetMap_ into the required *.JPG and *.INF file formats. This utility, developed by Dimitri Junker with specific UI-View format support added at the request of HB9DTX, streamlines the process of integrating detailed geographical information into the _UI-View_ platform. It operates on Windows, generating map files with border coordinates in just a few clicks, eliminating the tedious manual creation of *.INF files for custom maps. This converter allows UI-View users to leverage the continuously updated and community-contributed data of OpenStreetMap, which often surpasses commercial map quality in specific regions. The process is straightforward, with a detailed step-by-step guide available on the OpenStreetMap wiki, translated into French and German. TAHO.EXE significantly enhances the utility of UI-View by providing a readily accessible and continuously improving source of detailed, current geographical maps for displaying APRS station positions and objects.

The Collins TRC-75 autotune linear amplifier, owned by JF2SVU, is presented with a focus on its internal modifications. This QRO amplifier utilizes three 4CX250 tubes in parallel for its final stage, delivering 1 KW output power. Notably, the amplifier achieves full power with only 100 mW of RF input, a characteristic often associated with Collins designs. The original 400 Hz power supply has been converted for easier shack integration, and the entire RF and power supply sections have been rehoused into a compact, clean enclosure. The control unit, positioned above the amplifier, features three meters for individual vacuum tube IP monitoring and a multi-meter on the right. A dedicated 7 MHz receiver, recently completed, is also part of this integrated system. The autotune functionality means the main amplifier unit only requires connections for power, control, and coaxial cables, simplifying its operation. Key components like the 4CX250 tubes and NF capacitors are visible, along with the gearing mechanism for the final tank circuit. A timer and relay system manages high-voltage delay and cooling fan off-delay, although the cooling fan's airflow is noted as somewhat insufficient. A central volume control, which experienced a contact issue, is also highlighted.

Details the construction of an **HF converter** designed by M1GEO, George Smart, specifically to extend the frequency range of the FunCube Dongle Pro (FCD) for amateur radio reception. The FCD natively covers 64 to 1,700 MHz, but this project enables reception from 0 Hz to 64 MHz by up-converting signals to the FCD's operational range. It employs a **double-balanced mixer** with a 100 MHz local oscillator (LO) to translate incoming HF signals; for instance, a 1 MHz signal appears at 101 MHz within the FCD's passband. The design incorporates a 7th-order Chebyshev low-pass filter with a 62 MHz cutoff frequency at the input to mitigate image frequencies, ensuring cleaner spectral presentation. George provides the schematic, PCB masks, and Gerber files for replication, noting that Far Circuits also offers PCBs. The resource includes test results for the low-pass filter and measurements of LO leakage, identifying -36.8 dBm at 100 MHz as a potential sensitivity concern. M1GEO discusses potential improvements, such as adjusting the mixer's LO drive, adding a balance pot, or incorporating a post-mixer high-pass filter to reduce LO breakthrough. Audio recordings from 40m and 17m demonstrate the converter's performance with WRplus SDR software.

This online project guide details the construction of a homebrew boom microphone system. It details the assembly of a microphone shell from a 3/4" PVC pipe section and an end cap, requiring a drilled hole for a snug fit of the electret or condenser mic element. The internal wiring schematic specifies a **2.2 K** resistor and a **47 uF** polar capacitor for signal conditioning, with a circuit diagram provided for integration with IC-706 series transceivers. The guide outlines the use of CAT-5 cable for internal connections, incorporating strain relief at the rear of the mic shell, and an inline 3.5 mm jack to facilitate an external _PTT_ line, designed for a foot-mounted switch. Further construction involves fabricating a microphone shock mount from a 2-inch PVC connector, detailing the creation of four "fingers" and the insertion of screw-eyes for attaching elastic bands, which are twisted 180 degrees for tensioning and vibration isolation. A foam wind screen is also incorporated into the microphone assembly, secured with adhesive. The boom arm itself is repurposed from an articulated architect lamp, with the original lamp assembly converted into a **60 watt** resistive load for testing power sources. Microphone cabling is secured to the boom arm using wire ties, ensuring sufficient slack at hinge points to maintain articulation. The boom base is mounted to a bookshelf, requiring specific positioning to achieve proper microphone placement in front of the operator. Performance evaluation of the microphone system is conducted through on-air audio signal reports from other amateur radio operators.
