This Field Day Vertical Antenna project is the result of many years of attending various field day sites and realizing that what was needed is a simple, easy to assemble vertical antenna. The design of this Field Day Antenna is not very novel and leverages ideas from Butternut verticals and ARRL publications. The one essential requirement was that the antenna can be raised by just one person. The design of this Field Day Antenna is an above ground mounted ground plane vertical.

FSQ is a Fast Simple QSO mode designed specifically for HF. It works well under NVIS and sunrise/sunset conditions on the lower bands, and also works well for short skip and grey-line on higher bands and can be used also on VHF FM.

This small dual band UHF VHF directional antenna is good choice for portable operations. This antenna is composed by a moxon antenna for the two meters band and it includes two parastatic elements for 70 cm band.

This antenna just requires about 24m of free space instead of 41m that a normal half wave 80m antenna needs to hang up. The so called loaded dipole uses a coil in every dipole arm to electrically lengthen the mechanical too short dipole arms. Every coil has an inductivity of 120 microHenry.

Ham Call Lookup is an windows phone app that allows you to perform amateur radio callsign lookups via QRZ.COM. It also incorporates DX cluster feeds, DXCC information retrieval and Solar data all within one application on your Windows Phone. For callsign lookups, the application uses the QRZ.COM XML interface, please register at QRZ.COM for an account if you do not already have one. The application will happily work with a free QRZ.COM account although it is recommended to use a paid account, as a minimum the XML Logbook Data paid option, in order to access the full functionality of callsign lookups within the application.

The Waterway Net, sponsored by the Waterway Radio and Cruising Club, is dedicated to enhancing amateur radio communications for recreational boaters. Meeting daily at 0745 ET on 7.268 MHz LSB, the net focuses on safety and weather updates, providing a vital link for live-aboards and cruising boats to stay connected with families and friends. Position Reports and Float Plans are essential components that ensure safety for offshore passage makers. Established in the early sixties, the Waterway Net is one of the longest-running nets in amateur radio history. Open to all amateur radio operators with a General class license or higher, it encourages participation without requiring WRCC membership. Newcomers are advised to listen initially to understand net procedures before checking in. In emergencies, FCC regulations allow anyone, licensed or not, to use any frequency to call for help, with the 20-meter frequency of 14.300 MHz available for emergency assistance approximately eighteen hours a day.

Amateur Radio enthusiasts who are interested in the LF and MF bands may be familiar with WSPR and WSJT JT9. Used as a propagation probe or beacon, WSPR allows very weak signals to be detected, frequently as weak as -27dB SNR.

The Digital Communications Interconnect (DCI) resource details the operational philosophy and technical implementation of an open _MotoTRBO_ IPSC network, emphasizing the use of _c-Bridge_ technology for interconnecting DMR repeaters and talkgroups. It outlines the group's mission to facilitate dynamic connections within the regional DMR amateur radio community by openly sharing network resources and talkgroups, promoting independent network growth and exploring the capabilities of c-Bridge linking. The site provides insights into the technical advantages of c-Bridges, such as breaking the finite peer slot limitation of simple IPSC networks and enabling more flexible talkgroup routing beyond two timeslots. This legacy asset, last updated in October 2022, also reflects on the group's history and challenges encountered in national DMR efforts, citing political divisiveness among major c-Bridge groups. It discusses the practical application of c-Bridges for emergency communications and nets, ensuring redundant talkgroup servers for smooth day-to-day operations and priority events. The resource encourages other c-Bridge operators to adopt international talkgroups like "_iCall Talkgroup_" and a nationwide "Emergency Talkgroup," while also offering guidance on affiliating repeaters or IPSC networks with DCI's open network.

Operating as FY/F5UII, Christian F5UII conducted a DXpedition to French Guiana (FY) from January 13 to 30, 2013. The primary operation utilized the FY5KE radio club station in Kourou, with activity focused on voice modes during specific weekday hours. The resource details the operator's intent to transmit before 12:00z and after 22:00z, or as availability permitted, from the mainland. A significant aspect of this operation involved a dedicated weekend activation of the Salut Islands, specifically **IOTA SA-020**, from January 19-20, 2013. This segment of the DXpedition was conducted from Royal Island (Ile Royale), part of a group including Devil's Island (Ile du Diable) and St. Joseph Island (Ile Saint Joseph), located 14 km offshore from Kourou. The station setup for the IOTA activation included 100 Watts of power, a GPA-030 vertical antenna for 10m, 15m, and 20m, and dipole antennas for 17m and 40m, with antenna deployment contingent on site conditions and propagation. The operator anticipated strong interest for the SA-020 entity.
