Constructing a high-power 70cm solid-state amplifier presents unique challenges, particularly when aiming for 500 watts output using modern LDMOS devices. This resource details the author's experience building a 70cm amplifier based on a _Freescale MRFE6VP5600H_ transistor, initially from an RFHAM kit. It meticulously outlines the necessary modifications to achieve advertised performance, including optimizing input and output matching, correcting bias circuitry, and ensuring proper output balun connections for stability. The author shares specific adjustments, such as trimming the prototyping board for better transistor fit, drilling additional mounting holes for improved heat sinking, and replacing original matching capacitors with a single _20pf MIN02 metal mica_ for superior output. A critical fix involved jumpering gate decoupling pads to balance the push-pull transistor halves, which increased output to 580W and improved IMD. The resource also highlights a crucial correction to the output balun connection, initially reversed in the _Dubus_ article schematic, which resolved intermittent stability issues. Test results are provided, showing input power, output power, and drain current at 50V, demonstrating the amplifier's performance after modifications. This practical account offers valuable insights for hams undertaking similar high-power UHF amplifier projects, especially those working with LDMOS devices and kit-based constructions.

Constructing a 2-meter Moxon antenna for MURS channels, this resource details the antenna's geometry and expected radiation pattern. The design, optimized for low SWR, high gain, and front-to-back ratio on the first three MURS channels, uses 1/8-inch bronze brazing rod for elements. Author John E. Davis provides specific geometric parameters (A, B, C, D dimensions) rounded to the nearest 16th of an inch, along with a link to the final _.nec_ file for further analysis. Performance results show the attic-mounted Moxon performs well on the 2-meter band, despite its MURS optimization, with measured SWR plots provided. NEC-2 modeling predicts over 6 dBi gain and 40 dBi front-to-back ratio in free space. The author compares its directional performance to a _J-pole_ antenna, demonstrating substantially better signal strength for a nearby repeater when the Moxon is pointed in its general direction, confirming its superior gain and directivity.

Several bash scripts are provided to automate common amateur radio tasks on Linux and FreeBSD systems, addressing the need for quick access to specific data without navigating web interfaces. These utilities include `call` for fetching US callsign details from callook.info, `qth` for obtaining address information for US and Canadian callsigns, and `grid` for determining grid squares based on license addresses. Each script is designed for command-line execution, allowing for single lookups or interactive sessions, and emphasizes a KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid) programming philosophy. Another script, `au_kp.sh`, is tailored for weak signal VHF operators, fetching and displaying the NOAA 30-minute Aurora forecast and GFZ Space Weather Kp index data. This script generates static images, requiring re-execution for updates, and is intended to be run as a clickable desktop object for real-time space weather monitoring. It helps operators track propagation conditions, especially during solar cycle peaks. Beyond bash scripts, the resource offers a PHP/web page `fortune` implementation, including Henrik Aasted Sorensen's PHP script, sample HTML/CSS, and a HOWTO guide for creating fortune files. W3DHJ provides several amateur radio-themed fortune files, such as "Ham Humor & Wisdom" with 354 entries and "VHF Rover Humor & Wisdom" with 223 entries, along with other general humor and wisdom collections. These fortune files are designed with embedded HTML for web page display and are refreshed monthly, offering a total of 21,400 entries.
