		<description><![CDATA[I came acros the site of IK0VVE with a wonderfull description of a MEPT. MEPT stands for Manned Experimental Propagation Transmitter and is usually very low power. He uses a crystal oscilator but I find them pretty expensive. So I Looked around the net for programmable oscillators. Those are even more expensive and in the most cases [...]]]></description>

I don&#8217;t use the antenna anymore (collecting dust in the basement) but the article will stay here for informational purposes. I live in an appartment and don&#8217;t have the space to put up a large antenna for my Kenwood R1000 receiver. I knew [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This post is taken from my old website. I&#8217;m still dismantling that site. What is PMR446 anyway ? PMR446 stands for Personal Mobile Radio and is a license free radio in the 446 MHz UHF band. That is about 6 Mhz above the 70cm amateur radio band. There are 8 channels starting at 446.00625 MHz [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ham radio operators interested digital modes will often use these computer interfaces to automate CW contacts (send morse code from the PC), use the PC soundcard for RTTY and control push-to-talk functions among other things. Many of the PTT interface drawings  found on the net suffer the same problem. Well it is not really a problem. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m currently experimenting with a PIC processor. The term microcontroller is actually better, but you know what I mean. It all started when reading about the bitx20 kit. This transceiver has no frequency readout and if you look around you&#8217;ll notice that everyone is using a PIC or an AVR to build a frequency counter [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ON0VRT is a repeaterplatform installed at the VRT tower, located in Sint Pieters Leeuw, near Brussels. The platform will house a 6m, 2m, 70cm and a 23cm repeater. To see the range, I thought that displaying the various reception reports on a map is usefull. So after a couple of days playing with Google Maps [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A cantenna is a directional waveguide antenna for long-range Wi-Fi used to increase the range of (or snoop on) a wireless network. Although the original design was based on a Pringles potato chip can, a cantenna can be made from various cans/bottles. These include antennas on both the ground and antennas heightened by means of [...]]]></description>

There is about 21m of H500 coax between the transceiver and the antenna. The antenna performs well on 70cm with a very low SWR [...]]]></description>
