The site also features a comprehensive list of N4GN's recommended ham radio web picks, covering various categories like contesting resources, DXing, VHF/UHF/Microwave, and propagation information. The KCG's map center coordinates were updated on May 16, 2015, shifting approximately 16.5 miles SSW to 37° 21' N, 85° 39' W. Despite acknowledging current inactivity and an outdated web presence, the group remains operational, exploring options for reorganization, including a potential merger with the Tennessee Contest Group (TCG), which was ultimately rejected. The site emphasizes that membership applications are considered from anyone with a genuine interest in contesting.

The software seamlessly integrates critical tools like WSJT-X, DX Cluster, and PSKReporter for monitoring digital traffic. Additionally, it provides vital environmental data, including real-time space weather indices, solar activity, and personalized HF propagation predictions. With customizable themes and a modular architecture, OpenHamClock offers modern operators comprehensive, at-a-glance situational awareness of global radio conditions

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.
