HOW F

Trying to make FM simplex contacts with a handheld transceiver is a lost cause. Especially if it's a cheapie like a Baofeng. Or maybe it isn't. Find out in this video where I take a handheld with a homebrew antenna for a walk along the beach to try to make simplex contacts.

ELECT
electronics-on-the-floor-generators-from
A cheap wind-up LED torch wasn't holding its charge. So it was opened, the torch wires disconnected and the generator output brought to external wires.
Its voltage output was measured - both without and with resistive loads. A resistor burns and smells as the generator's output was somewhat greater than realised. However it means that many electronic items could possibly be converted to wind-up operation.

28-50-144-mhz-wspr-with-hand-carried
WSPR transmitting on 10, 6 & 2m with very simple antennas. I was near sea level and no masts or towers were used. Conditions did not seem enhanced on 10 & 6m. But they were likely good on 2m.
