Im planning some upcoming videos of how we, as Hams, can use the Raspberry
Pi devices in our hobby. Might as well start at the beginning - lets talk
about what it is, and what they do.

100 Watts and a Wi Episode 84

On this episode, we all love our radios. But, what radio is non negotiable?
Meaning, no matter what - youd never let it go. Listener answers are
revealed. Warmer temperatures have inspired a lot of thought about antenna
work. Clearly, these is a first world problem. Plus, the 100 Watts and Wire
Net inches closer to resurrection. All of this and more on this edition of
100 Watts and a Wire.

Austin Munger just wanted a C.B. Radio to give him an alternate means of
communicating when out hunting or camping. Little did he know that a
random trip to HRO would turn into a full-bore hobby!



Not content with kerchunking repeaters, Austin set out to challenge himself
with this new ‘thing’ he’d heard about called SOTA (Summits on the Air).
It didn’t take to long to figure out he was a little unprepared, but a
strong will goes far when determination sets in!

Seems I have forgotten everything I thought I had learned so far. This is
very frustrating for me. I took a complete 24 hours off between sessions to
see if that helped but as of tonights lessons I am drawing a blank. I would
like to say I could have used another full week in between lessons but I
dont know if that would do any good either. I guess the morale of this
story is, If you fill yourself sinking, grab a life...

This is the letter I sent to the ARRL this evening upon thinking about
spending $49 per year for a magazine that I dont really want. I wonder if
Im the only one who feels this way?, or am I way off?

Year 91: Another Milestone Reached



Three times in its first 90 years MARS trod center stage and won the
American public’s admiring applause: During 1965-1973, the job was
connecting the front-line troops in Vietnam with loved ones at home. In the
1933-1941 depression years, it was linking up some 3,000 wilderness camps
of the Civilian Conservation Corps where jobless young men built roads and
parks (there were no telephones). In the...
