Documents the _XT1T_ DXpedition to Burkina Faso, active from February to March 2013. This operation provided DXers worldwide with an opportunity to work a relatively rare entity, with the team focusing on maximizing contacts across various bands and modes. The expedition utilized an online log provided by _IDT_ (Italian DXpedition Team), enabling immediate verification of contacts and facilitating QSL requests. The _IDT_ system allowed participants to check their QSOs shortly after they were made, a crucial feature for contesters and award hunters aiming for DXCC credit. The expedition's success was measured by the total number of unique contacts and countries worked, contributing significantly to the global DX community's pursuit of new entities.

The resource, formerly JH6QIL's blog, now displays a service termination notice from teacup. byGMO, the hosting provider. It explicitly states that the teacup. byGMO service ceased operations on August 1, 2022. The page conveys a message of gratitude to users for their past patronage of the platform. This content serves as an archival record of the service's discontinuation rather than an active amateur radio blog. The original blog content from **JH6QIL** is no longer accessible through this URL, indicating a complete cessation of the hosted service.

Tysonpower details a DIY AZ/EL antenna rotator project designed for under €150, inspired by the Satnogs Tracker. Constructed with 2020 aluminum extrusion and NEMA23 stepper motors, the rotator is controlled via an Arduino Nano. It effectively tracks smaller antennas like Yagi, though struggles with heavier dishes. STL files are available on Thingiverse.

Analyzing 433 MHz radio signals from common wireless devices, such as temperature sensors and remote controls, involves understanding **On-Off Keying (OOK)** modulation. This resource details the process of capturing these signals using a Software Defined Radio (SDR) like Gqrx and then visually inspecting the captured audio data in a sound editor such as Audacity. It differentiates between **Pulse Width Modulation (PWM)** and Pulse Position Modulation (PPM) encoding schemes, illustrating how to identify and decode binary data by eye based on pulse and gap durations. The article provides a step-by-step walkthrough for decoding a wireless thermometer's data, correlating bit patterns with known temperature, humidity, and channel values. It also demonstrates decoding an RF remote control's button presses, highlighting the constant and varying parts of the transmitted packets. The content further introduces automated decoding using tools like RTL_433, explaining its capabilities in parsing various device protocols and showing how to interpret its output, including modulation type and decoded data. Specific examples include analyzing Prologue sensor protocol specifications from RTL_433's source code and noting common operating frequencies like 433.92 MHz in Europe and 915 MHz in the US.

The DIY 137 MHz WX SAT V-dipole antenna project details the construction of a specialized antenna for receiving weather satellite transmissions. It provides specific dimensions for the dipole elements, designed for optimal reception around the 137 MHz band, which is commonly used by NOAA and Meteor weather satellites. The resource outlines the materials required, such as aluminum tubing for elements and PVC for the support structure, along with the necessary coaxial cable and connectors. The article presents a clear, step-by-step assembly process, including how to form the V-shape and connect the feedline. It emphasizes practical considerations for mounting and weatherproofing the antenna for outdoor deployment. The design focuses on simplicity and effectiveness for amateur radio operators interested in satellite imagery. Key aspects include the precise angle of the V-dipole and the lengths of the radiating elements, which are critical for achieving the desired circular polarization response for satellite signals. The resource includes photographic documentation of the construction phases and the final mounted antenna.

If You are using a separate receive antennas then you need a good protection circuit to eliminate the possibility of blowing out the receiver front-end while using these auxiliary receive antennas specially on low bands.

A balun is a MUST for dipoles or similar antennas when they are feed with coaxial cable. From the RF point of view, the shield can be modeled as two conductors, the internal shield (the real shield, this is, ground) and the external shield, who is really far to be ground. In this way, your dipole has 3 arms, the two from the dipole and the coaxial cable shield (external face)

DecoDXLog is a station logbook application for Windows, designed to integrate seamlessly with the _Decodium_ family of software, as well as _WSJT-X_ and JTDX, by receiving QSOs via UDP. It operates around a local SQLite file, providing automatic callbook lookups from QRZ.com XML or HamQTH to complete log entries with name, QTH, and locator data. The software tracks 15 different awards, including DXCC, WAZ, WAS, WPX, IOTA, POTA, and SOTA, calculating progress in real-time and allowing confirmation via LoTW, paper cards, or eQSL. It also features comprehensive statistics, a world map displaying worked locators and cluster spots, and a built-in DX Cluster client that aggregates data from DX Spider/CC Cluster, Reverse Beacon Network, HamAlert, and POTA activations, providing alerts for new DXCC, band, or mode. The application includes a CW keyer/decoder, a contest mode with real-time scoring and Cabrillo export, and robust QSL management for LoTW, QRZ Logbook, eQSL, and Club Log. An optional DecoDXLog Cloud feature enables synchronization of QSOs, station profiles, and settings across multiple devices, ensuring a consistent operating environment. The software is open-source under the GPL-3.0 license, developed by IU8LMC and contributors, and supports lossless ADIF import/export, making it compatible with existing logs. It also integrates with _DecoRotor_ for antenna control, allowing operators to point their antenna directly from the logbook interface.

EDI is a common electronic data file format required to submit contact logs. Very popular among contest logs formats.
