Ripples in the Ether

Emanations from Amateur Radio Station NT7S

Etherkit Rev B

You may have already seen it, but please allow me to direct your attention to my latest post on the Etherkit blog. For the tl;dr version: sorry to have been quiet on the business front so long, also sorry to have failed to do a good job keeping up on business communications, the OpenBeacon and… Read More Etherkit Rev B

Wideband Transmission #2

CC1 Beta Kit For Sale I ended up having one leftover kit from the CC1 beta test and I thought that an experience builder might like to build it. There are a few minor mods to perform to the PCB, so it’s best suited for someone who feels comfortable with that. The (hopefully) final PCB… Read More Wideband Transmission #2

Wideband Transmission #1

This is the first in a series of blog posts covering a wide variety of topics. In the past, I have used Twitter for my microblogging needs. For a variety of reasons, I’m on a Twitter hiatus right now, so I’ll be using this series to convey some of the disconnected (and possibly connected) random… Read More Wideband Transmission #1

Stuff ‘n Things

As a mild winter turns into an unusually nice spring here in Beaverton (last week we had multiple days with clear skies and highs in the upper 70s °F), a young ham’s thoughts turn to portable activations, Field Day, SOTA, and the like. I’ve been looking forward to this summer for the opportunity to take… Read More Stuff ‘n Things

Resurrect Dead

I imagine that nearly all of my readers are interested in radio in some shape or form, so I thought I would recommend a fun documentary that you can view on Netflix streaming called Resurrect Dead: The Mystery of the Toynbee Tiles. If you enjoy the world of crazy conspiracy theories, pirate radio, and solving… Read More Resurrect Dead

Junkbox

No earth-shattering news to report on the blog, but a few little things to mention (hence the “junkbox” title). The CC-20 Beta 1 test is proceeding pretty much as planned. As of tonight, AA7EE has his receiver up and running now and a couple of the others are close behind. I’m eagerly awaiting the results… Read More Junkbox

Real Radios Glow in the Dark

I’m getting older. Why do I say that? Because I’ve been feeling a huge wave of nostalgia for hollow-state and other simple radios lately. I think it started out when I stumbled upon a YouTube video from someone who had built a replica of the classic TwinPlex receiver. That reminded me of the Lindsay Publications… Read More Real Radios Glow in the Dark

In Case Anyone Cares

Here is the “Project X” proto: It’s kinda big with thru-hole components, but the current plan is to use SMT in production. Does that sound like a good idea, or does the mere mention of surface mount turn you off? Update Due to “popular demand”, I’ve decided to release a bit of information on this… Read More In Case Anyone Cares

About This Blog/Bio

You've arrived at the blog of Jason Milldrum, NT7S. It's mostly related to amateur radio (especially homebrewing and QRP) but occasionally other topics will pop up when they strike me as amusing. The QTH is in Oregon wine country. Husband of Jennifer, dad of Noah and Eli. Butler to a pair of cats and a rescue Beagle.
