Demonstrates various practical amateur radio projects and technical discussions through video episodes. One episode details cutting and retuning a _1/4 wave shorted stub_ from 101.7 MHz to 107.5 MHz to safeguard a transmitter's driver stage, alongside insights into advanced _160-meter antenna systems_ like eight-circle arrays and beverage antennas. Another segment covers upgrading firmware on an _ATS-20+_ receiver using AverDudes for improved display and functionality, and a detailed guide on using D-Star DR mode on an _ICOM ID-52A_ for international repeater programming. Additional content includes a deep dive into _OpenHamClock_ as a potential replacement for the HamClock project, updates on _Raspberry Pi 5_ running Trixie OS, and a review of the Choyong LC90 Internet radio with AI integration. The series also features "Ham College" episodes, which meticulously prepare viewers for the Technician Exam by covering topics such as antenna and transmission line measurements, SWR interpretation, and the functions of basic electronic components like rectifiers, relays, and transistors. Practical advice on coaxial cable characteristics, dummy loads, and proper soldering techniques is also provided.

Twenty-four repeaters, including D-STAR and Fusion systems, are maintained and operated by MARCA Inc., primarily located on Arizona mountaintops and around the Phoenix metropolitan area. The organization, holding the callsign _W7MOT_, facilitates a wide range of amateur radio activities, such as ARRL Field Day events near Forest Lakes, Arizona, and participation in ARRL FMT contests. Members engage in antenna experimentation, construction, and maintenance trips to repeater sites. The club's interests span diverse topics, including HF voice, digital modes like _WSPR_, _WSJT-X_ (FT8, FT4), and CW, alongside DXing, MESH networking, and EOC operations. It supports technologies from SDR radio building to antique radio restoration and computer-based operations like Echolink, fostering a Single Board Computer (SBC) and Raspberry Pi group. Monthly meetings, held on the third Tuesday, feature business discussions and guest presentations, with informal summer gatherings and an annual holiday dinner in December. Monthly VE testing sessions for Technician, General, and Extra Class licenses are conducted by Ray Vasquez, K4RMV. Post-meeting discussions often cover specialized interests such as repeater operations, technical topics, D-STAR, SDR, APRS, Fusion, and Raspberry Pi projects.

An interesting guide to installing software on a Raspberry for amateur radio use. This documentation cover the Raspberry Pi 4 version that whose hadware is powerfull enought to fullfill all requiriements for ham radio programs.

Monitoring extremely weak signals in the QRSS (Very Slow Morse) mode requires specialized receiving and processing capabilities to extract information below the typical noise floor. This project provides a software solution, _QrssPiG_, designed to run on a Raspberry Pi, enabling it to function as a dedicated QRSS grabber. It interfaces with various Software Defined Radio (SDR) devices, including the popular _rtl-sdr_ dongles and _HackRF_ units, to acquire raw I/Q data streams. The software then performs the necessary signal processing to visualize and decode these faint, long-duration CW transmissions, often operating with milliwatts of power. The system leverages the computational power of the Raspberry Pi for real-time signal analysis, allowing hams to participate in QRSS experiments and monitor distant beacons. It supports different SDR hardware, offering flexibility in setup and deployment for home stations or remote monitoring sites. The project includes detailed instructions for installation and configuration, making it accessible for those familiar with Linux environments. This grabber is particularly useful for tracking propagation on the LF and HF bands where QRSS activity is common, providing a visual representation of signal presence over extended periods.

OpenHamClock is a modern, open-source dashboard for amateur radio operators, designed as a web-based successor to the original HamClock. Deployable locally on a Raspberry Pi or via the cloud, it centralizes essential DX operations into a single, intuitive interface. At its core is an interactive world map that visualizes real-time DX spots, signal paths, satellite tracking, and POTA activators. 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

This detailed guide provides step-by-step instructions on setting up a HamClock for your shack using a Raspberry Pi and the HamClock 4.21 software. It includes recommendations for hardware such as Raspberry Pi models, SD cards, PSUs, and displays. The guide covers installation, setup, configuration, and suggestions for customizing the default settings. Whether you are a beginner or experienced ham radio operator, this guide will help you create a functional HamClock for your shack with ease.

MARCA, Inc. operates approximately 24 repeaters across Arizona mountaintops and Phoenix-area rooftops, supporting modes like D-STAR and Fusion. The club, holding the **W7MOT** callsign, engages in diverse activities including ARRL Field Day events near Forest Lakes, AZ, ARRL FMT contests, and antenna experimentation. Members actively participate in HF operations such as voice, digital, CW, DXing, and various digital HF modes, alongside MESH and EOC operations within the valley. The club's interests span a broad technical spectrum, from SDR radio building to antique radio restoration, and include modern digital modes like WSPR, WSJT, FT8, and FT4. They also explore computer-based operations such as Echolink, fostering a dedicated Single Board Computer (SBC) and Raspberry Pi group. Monthly VE testing sessions for Technician, General, and Extra Class licenses are conducted by Ray Vasquez, K4RMV. Meetings are held on the third Tuesday of each month, typically lasting two hours, with a business segment followed by a technical presentation. These gatherings occur in-person at IHop in Mesa, AZ, and concurrently via Zoom, accommodating both local members and winter visitors. Informal chat groups often form post-meeting to discuss specialized topics like D-STAR, SDR, APRS, MESH, and Fusion.
