Over the Horizon Radar on 10 meter hambandLots of noise on 10 meter today. Centre is around 28.190. You can not hear any radiobeacons due to the radar. Date 8th of may 2022 - 12:37 GMT
Checked on the webSDR in Twente and you can hear and see it!
So is it QRN or QRM? :-) Lots of noise, static, sounds.... bad sh#t !

![7MHz cw - am transmitter
I made a simple cw/am transmitter for 7 MHz [hamradio]
The design is from Nitin VU3GAO.
Just one tube [EL84] and you are on the air.
As a modulator for AM I used a TDA2005, just one section because its a stereo amp.
To finish it off a boxed it in a cabinet I had on the shelf.
Hamradio is always fun :-)

![Grateful Dead in Space - NASA STS-119 wake up call
This recording [Box of rain] I made during a live broadcast. Two things I like come together : Space and the Dead :-)
Day 6 [03202009] STS-119 wake up call - Deployment of the S6 solar array on the ISS
Box of rain - Grateful Dead
Music played for mission specialist John Phillips
Discoverys crew attached the segment to the end of the S5 truss, completing the starboard side of the stations structure. The segment includes the fourth and final set of solar arrays and batteries for generation, storage, regulation and distribution of electrical power for the station.

![My Rockmite 2.0
Today I repaired my Rockmite QRP tranceiver. There was a resistor in the 12 Volt-line of the amplifier burned. It works again :-)
I added a SWR-meter and an antennatuner for when im using an wire-antenna.
So now I have a working Rockmite 2.0
Sorry for the shaky video ... I have only 2 hands ...

![Velddag Regio04 Amsterdam Vondelpark 26 juni 2010
Een impressie van de velddag welk georganiseerd was door regio04.web-log.nl
Behalve veel toeristen en mensen die langsliepen met vragen zoals wat doen jullie ? waren er ook nog zendamateurs zoals PD1RP, PA0ASD, PD0DEN, PD0FDZ, PE1ABK, PE0CDN, PA3DMI EN PD ...ja en die zijn we even kwijt [hallo Almere meld u even!].
Er hing en Fritzel FD3 voor HF en voor 2 was er een diplool qubical-quad.
Diverse verbindingen via de repeaters in Amsterdam en Zaandam zijn gemaakt op 2 en of HF waren vooral 10 en 20 in trek met de ft817.
Over de grens zijn o.a. F6GPD, EF1W, EW8O, IT9RYH, BG5AFD gewerkt en PA0END was zelfs op 2 en 20 in phone en cw te vinden.
Kortom een geslaagde dag !
