Amateur Television (ATV) operations, particularly within the Arizona region, require dedicated resources for technical information, operational guidance, and community engagement. This club provides a focal point for hams interested in transmitting and receiving video signals on amateur bands. Members engage in local ATV repeaters, participate in technical discussions, and share knowledge on video modulation schemes, antenna designs, and station configurations. The club supports activities ranging from local simplex contacts to wider area repeater usage, fostering skill development in this specialized mode. The organization maintains a roster of club officers and offers membership opportunities to local amateurs. It also curates offsite links to other ATV resources, expanding the knowledge base available to its members and the broader amateur community. The club's emphasis on ATV helps propagate interest and technical expertise in a mode that combines traditional RF engineering with video technology.

The Nederlandse Vereniging voor Radio Amateurs (NVRA) operates from Haarlem, Netherlands, under the club callsign PI4HLM and maintains an ATV repeater, PI6HLM. The organization's website provides updates on internal governance, such as the postponement of a General Members Meeting due to necessary amendments to its 1986 statutes. These amendments are required to comply with the Wet Bestuur en Toezicht Rechtspersonen (WBTR) — Dutch legislation concerning the governance and supervision of legal entities. The NVRA's operational focus includes local amateur radio activities, indicated by its Haarlem location and the presence of a **PI6HLM** ATV repeater. The club's adherence to national legal frameworks for non-profit organizations, specifically the **WBTR**, demonstrates its structured approach to club management and long-term viability within the Dutch amateur radio community.

This article was first published in CQ-TV issue 208. Author try to explain digital television in layman's terms and without getting too involved in mathematics.

The article, "Using 75 Ohm CATV Coaxial Cable," details methods for employing readily available 75-ohm CATV hardline in standard 50-ohm amateur radio setups. It addresses the inherent impedance mismatch and practical considerations, such as connector compatibility, for hams seeking cost-effective, low-loss feedline solutions. The resource specifically contrasts common 50-ohm cables like RG-8, RG213, and _LMR-400_ with 75-ohm hardline, highlighting the latter's lower loss characteristics, particularly at VHF and UHF frequencies. It explores two primary approaches to manage the impedance difference: direct connection with an acceptable SWR compromise and precise impedance transformation. The direct connection method acknowledges that a perfect 1:1 SWR is not always critical, especially when using low-loss coax. For impedance transformation, the article explains the use of half-wavelength sections of coax to reflect the antenna's 50-ohm impedance back to the transmitter, noting its single-frequency effectiveness. It also briefly mentions transformer designs using toroid cores and a technique involving two 1/12 wavelength sections of feedline for broader bandwidth. The content further clarifies the concept of _velocity factor_ for calculating electrical versus physical cable lengths, providing a generic formula for precise length determination. It notes that while half-wave matching is practical for 10 meters and above, it can result in excessively long runs for lower bands like 160 meters, potentially adding **250 feet** of cable. The article also mentions achieving a usable bandwidth of 28.000 MHz up to at least **28.8 MHz** on 10 meters with specific transformation techniques.

A synthesized 2.3 GHz Amateur Television (ATV) transmitter design, conceived by Ian G6TVJ, is presented, targeting broadcast-quality video performance on the 13cm band and extending up to 2.6 GHz. The core of the design utilizes a commercial Z-comm Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) that tunes from 2.2-2.7 GHz, providing a +10 dBm output and simplifying RF alignment. This VCO's stability, originally intended for narrowband applications, readily accepts high-frequency video modulation, contributing to the transmitter's robust performance. The exciter stage, incorporating a Mini Circuits VNA 25 MMIC amplifier, boosts the signal to +16dBm, while a Plessey SP4982 prescaler divides the output frequency for the synthesizer. The synthesizer employs a Motorola MC145151 CMOS parallel IC, favored over the common Plessey SP5060 for its superior video modulation characteristics and ease of programming without microprocessors. This choice addresses issues like LF tilt and distorted field syncs often seen with SP5060 designs, particularly when operating through repeaters or over long distances. The MC145151 divides the signal further, enabling precise frequency stepping, with programming handled by EPROMs for channel selection and LED display. The loop filter network, critical for video integrity, was developed through experimentation to prevent the PLL from reacting to video modulation, ensuring a clean transmitted picture. The transmitter incorporates a Down East Microwave commercial power amplifier module, delivering approximately 1.6W output, driven by the exciter through a 3dB attenuator. Construction involves surface-mount SHF components on micro-strip lines etched onto double-sided fiberglass board, housed within a tinplate box. The design boasts no AC coupling in the video path, preserving low-frequency response, a common failing in other ATV transmitters. Performance tests with a 50Hz square wave revealed no LF distortion, and a calibrated "Pulse & Bar" signal showed a near 100% HF response, demonstrating its capability for high-quality ATV transmissions.
