    Now that's what I call a Shack! Just reading Volumes 2 and 3 of Radio Projects for the Amateur. Hopefully I can get the parts together make some time and get some home construction done (QRP transceiver?). I have a Ubitx. That's fun but something from scratch like when I was young would be nice.

    I was starting to think I was the only one that wasn't screaming how great it is. Echolink is super convenient and objectively good. However, it dilutes the purity of amateur radio, which is supposed to be RF. During a busy net the Echolink users cause long hang times and generally just walk all over each other trying to talk. I guess in the overall big picture it is a benefit for users to be able to have this technology, but it is definitely not without issues it causes on its own.

    You must still be using apple or something odd to post on youtube and facebook it always has broken emoji's in your titles that do not show on Windows PC's or Android phones. just a suggestion but probably better off not putting them in titles, looks odd having OBJ "The object replacement character" throughout the titles, in this one 2 of them after shack and one after vk3xu. still like your content though, 73
