- Chokes and Temperature changes
- The influence of temperature changes in Common Mode Chokes. To get an indication of the impedance behavior when the core temperature changes, the author tested a CMC by heating it with a hairdryer, and measuring its temperature with an infrared thermometer. When the CMC temperature rises from 30C to 90C, the frequency of maximal impedance shifts down from ca.10 MHz to ca.7.2 MHz, or by a factor 1.4.

- Moxon Mania - Building the Ultimate 4-Band Moxon Antenna
- The article details the design and construction of a four-band Moxon beam by a radio amateur. The beam, mounted atop a rooftop tower, aimed for gain over a dipole on 20 meters, cost under $500, and included additional bands. The design features fiberglass spreaders, four bands (20/15/10/6 meters), and a single feedpoint. The construction involved computer modeling, NEC source code, and specific dimensions. The article outlines the assembly, materials, and tuning process, including in-situ adjustments for optimal performance. Despite initial challenges, the beam improved signal strength and facilitated contacts on multiple bands, marking it as the best HF antenna the author has owned.

- A mobile radio installation
- Detailing a Yaesu FT-857 and ATAS-120 installation in a 1997 Toyota Tacoma, the author used Polar Plot to map signal strength. Using a hand truck with a laptop, FT-817, and an Iron Horse antenna, they circled a chalk-outlined 100-foot diameter, revealing potential nulls towards the truck's rear and through the cab, offering insights into antenna performance.

- Propagation on 630 Meters and 2200 Meters
- This is a theoretical look at propagation on 630-Meters and 2200-Meters using ray tracing software. It expands on the brief discussion in the ARRL Handbooks.
The Earth's magnetic field affects 630-Meter and 2200-Meter band propagation. Lower ionization reduces absorption, aiding low-frequency propagation. Differences exist between bands, limited daytime sky-wave propagation. Sunrise/sunset show promise, yet mechanisms are unclear. Ducting possible at night in specific conditions. Negative ions enhance propagation. Inefficient antennas and high man-made noise are anticipated. Groundwave propagation is significant on 2200-Meters.

- Icom 706MK2G Repair
- After years of reliable performance, a 26-year-old Icom 706MK2G exhibited an unusual deviation during FM transmission, with the actual frequency being 10kHz off from the displayed frequency. Additionally, the power meter showed a sharp dip during transmission. Upon investigation, it was discovered that the FM VCO voltage adjust variable had become dirty and sluggish over time. By adjusting the variable capacitor and cleaning it with switch cleaner, the issue was resolved, restoring stable power output and accurate frequency transmission.

- Yaesu FT-817 Audio Enhancement: Heathkit-inspired Homebrew Project
- Inspired by Heathkit, author aimed to enhance his Yaesu FT-817 with audio and RF processing. Design goals included a compact enclosure, PCB simplicity, matching jacks, a visual meter, and a built-in signal generator. Despite challenges in finding a suitable compressor IC for a 5V DC mic jack, he chose the Analog Devices SSM2165/2166 series. Prototyping with a solderless breadboard, author planned a PCB layout for its versatile performance in communication use.

- A 2 meter band-pass cavity using surplus Heliax
- Cavity is often required at a busy site to not only prevent its receiver from being overloaded by off-frequency signals, but also be a good neighbour and prevent low-level signals from your transmitter from getting into other users receivers - not to mention the preventing of those other signal from getting back into your transmitter to generate spurious signals in its own right.
