The article describes the construction of a 1:49 impedance transformer designed to match the high impedance (around 2500Ω) of an end-fed half-wave (EFHW) dipole antenna to the 50Ω impedance of a typical transceiver. The EFHW is a popular portable antenna due to its simple construction, but feeding it can be challenging compared to a center-fed dipole. The transformer was built using an FT240-43 ferrite toroid core, with 2 primary and 14 secondary windings for a 1:49 impedance ratio. A capacitor was added in series with the primary winding to improve performance at higher frequencies. The author compared versions with one and two cores, and found that 100pF worked best for the single core design while 200pF was optimal for the dual core transformer.

Paul McMahon presents a compact VSWR meter designed for QRP portable use, ideal for SOTA operations with rigs like the FT817. The device, constructed from readily available components, employs a simple resistive bridge for wideband performance from 1.8MHz to 52MHz, with diminishing accuracy at higher frequencies. Key features include no need for external power, simple calibration, and operation with low power levels. The design, detailed with parts lists, schematics, and construction guidelines, ensures a 2:1 worst-case VSWR to protect transceivers during antenna matching. Calibration points are set for accurate VSWR readings at various loads.

This page by Lajos Hoss, HA8HL, provides a detailed guide on how to build a simple direct receiver using FT8QRP CAT control support. The author shares his experience in making QSOs with FT8, WSPR, and JT65 modes during the Covid-19 lockdown. Modifications to the VFO, transmitter design using BD329 transistor Class A amplifier, and the challenges faced in achieving clean output signals within legal limits. This project is interesting for those hams that are interested in experimenting with DIY transmitter projects and understanding CAT control support for various amateur radio modes.

The F6AOJ RX splitter project was created to split the antenna signal from an LZ1AQ receive loop to multiple receivers, such as radios or SDRs. The design is simple to build and effective. The splitter, mounted on the back of the LZ1AQ control board, provides two outputs—one for an Afedri SDR and another for a K3 transceiver. Measurements show a damping of -3.01 dB at 1 MHz and -3.10 dB at 30 MHz, with a low SWR (max 1.07 at 30 MHz and 1.4 at 60 MHz).

SvxLink is an advanced software suite for the ham radio community, initially launched in 2003 as an EchoLink application for Linux. Now a comprehensive voice services system, the SvxLink Server functions as an advanced repeater controller and can operate on simplex and duplex channels. It acts as an intermediary between transceiver hardware and applications, offering essential system services. The modular architecture of SvxLink supports customization, with modules in C++ or TCL. Key modules include a help system, parrot mode, EchoLink connectivity, DTMF repeater, voice mail, propagation warnings, and selective calling sequences. SvxLink's development and source code are available on GitHub, promoting open-source collaboration in the ham radio community.

This article describes the design and construction of a 4-meter band vertical sleeved dipole antenna, built to complement a newly acquired Yaesu FTDX10 transceiver. The simple yet effective antenna consists of modified coaxial cable housed in weather-resistant plastic conduit, featuring an integrated 8-turn choke coil. Despite common misidentification as an EFHW antenna, this design is actually a sleeved dipole that provides an excellent 50-ohm match across the band, achieving SWR values between 1:1 and 1.1:1. The project demonstrates an economical approach to entering the relatively quiet 4-meter band.

INTERCOM is a freeware application designed for remote control of KENWOOD TMD700/710/V-71 transceivers, as well as other transceivers equipped with UP, DOWN, and PTT commands. Compatible with Windows XP and higher (32 & 64-bit), INTERCOM offers multilingual support in English and French, and can be used on Linux, Ubuntu, or Android platforms via WINE 1.0 or CROSSOVER. The software enables users to send basic commands—such as selecting TX, VFO, memory channels, or power levels—either through manual inputs or over a TCP/IP link. INTERCOM is tailored for SIMPLEX setups, facilitating the interconnection of VHF/UHF repeaters with nearby repeaters. Remote commands are transmitted using DTMF codes, which are decoded by SIMPLEX and forwarded to INTERCOM via TCP/IP. This functionality makes INTERCOM an ideal tool for radio enthusiasts and operators seeking seamless remote management of supported transceivers in simplex configurations.
