using-the-btech-aprs-k2-aprs-cable-with
This is a video review and demonstration on the Btech APRS-K2 cable and how to use it with the Aprsdroid app.
This cable is super handy, although it's a bit pricey. It regulates the volume and voltage for audio interface with the baofeng.
This cable works with almost all baofeng models, including the UV5R UV5RB UV5RE and F8HP.

HOW R

thought it would be a fun idea to tackle "How Radios Work"
So I try my best to explain amplitude modulation, frequency modulation, how radio signals are generated, modulated and converted into electromagnetic waves to be transmitted and received by distant stations.

THE C
the-christmas-light-efhw-antenna
We took about 70 feet of incandescent Christmas lights, and strung them to an EFHW 5:1 balun. This was a really fun way to celebrate the holidays while experimenting on the radio. The lights would only light about 35 feet or so on 80 meters. Looks like I only needed one set. May set them up for a live-stream via FT8 before Christmas.

putting-up-my-hf-apartment-antenna(end
So I bought the antenna listed here:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/HF-End-Fed-Dipole-EFHW-4010-200W-40-10m-NO-TUNER-NEEDED-65-ft-long/192924219299?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20160908105057%26meid%3D7e220cd46a46407a98cda9cdc57a1847%26pid%3D100675%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D15%26sd%3D192924219299%26itm%3D192924219299&_trksid=p2481888.c100675.m4236&_trkparms=pageci%3A87394afa-7f54-11e9-873b-74dbd1804a28%7Cparentrq%3Af1ba0d7816a0aad9a212da4bffd4dd91%7Ciid%3A1
I am in an upstairs apartment so it was a challenge coming up with a way to get an hf antenna up. The best conclusion I could come to was an end fed dual band antenna for 20-40 meters
It's not the best job, but I've gotten a few contacts and it's a start.
I do hope it doesn't cause any problems with the landlords.

WEATH
weatherproofing-a-rtl-sdr-stock-dipole
Weatherproofing a RTL-SDR Stock Dipole Antenna
This is a video on how I personally weatherproofed my rtl sdr stock dipole antenna that came with it.
I used PVC Pipe, bubble Wrap, and tape, all materials I had laying around the house.
(I Had spare PVC Pipe from other projects.)
I've used this setup with my aprs digipeater for a while, and it has held up well, in storms with no signs of water damage, so I figured I'd share it with others looking for ideas to do the same thing.
The stock number for the PVC Pipe used is
Lowe’s (stock # 23990).
Amateur Dipole Antenna Calculator: http://www.csgnetwork.com/antennaedcalc.html
It works well, with the antenna wire coming in through my window, hooked to my raspberry pi.

VLOG
vlog-being-a-youtuber-with-personal
Just a small update video on what's going on in life for those who care. Behind the YouTube scenes, sometimes it intrudes on the hobby itself. I want to make sure I continue enjoy playing radio while still offering content for the community. I just gave myself a few weeks to calibrate and adjust my focus. Next week, we are going to finally start taking a look at VARA. Thanks for watching.
