Since moving to the current QTH, it has now become something of a tradition for me to operate in the ARRL 10 Meter Contest. The last few years of the contest have been enjoyable since we’re on the peak of the solar cycle, and I don’t have to stay up all night to catch stations,… Read More 2014 Ten Meter Contest
I recently received a very interesting e-mail from Dave W8NF regarding a very spiffy looking labeling technique that he successfully used for his latest LogiKlipper prototype (BTW, LogiKlipper is going to kick the butt of the RF clipper manufactured by that other company in the South…). Here’s the details on how he did it: I… Read More A Nice Labeling Technique
Dave W8NF has been kind enough to post a short video demonstrating the effect that RF clipping has on a SSB transmission. You can see that peak voltage isn’t affected, but that the power density of the output waveform is increased as the amount of RF clipping is increased. The trade-off is in the sound… Read More RF Clipping Demonstration
