    Nostalgia....mobile handheld transceivers before the internet....kids today find it impossible to believe that we could communicate through amateur radio back before ordinary citizens had access to the internet. I built my first tube mobile radio in a fishing tackle box in 1954.

    I'm a ham radio operator since I was a child, my wife also and yes... my 8 year old son and my 12 year old daughter also. We enjoy the hobby. My son enjoys talking DX but my daughter enjoys talking and she has a group on 75 meters she talks too.

    We shot the show in 1977 and 1978. It was released in late 1978 as a part of an ARRL growth in Amateur Radio campaign. It was the second film for the ARRL that I worked on that was directed by Dave Bell, W6AQ. It was also the last ham radio show shot on 16mm film. . When I first noticed the fade to magenta I transferred it to videotape so a far better archive copy exists about a foot to my right on Betacam SP video. So it survives.

      CQ CQ DE G8WOF ........ 1978 was a good year, formally British Receiving Station BRS41712 giving reports to VOA and CBC and others also receiving RTTY news wire and slow scan. Then go my Licence a few years later and met a good few chums on the way. I remember JY1, we had a 5 minute QSO as part of the Jamboree on the Air, pinged AMSAT a few times and a very short QSO with the shuttle. I am now working on getting the shack up and running as all my old gear has been sitting quiet for too long good memories of early mornings and the dim glow of the heaters.

    I watched the video with some amusement, but most of all I kept reliving the memories I have of my dad, W5XU, formerly WA5LMH, 'bringing up the autopatch,' taking pride in his antennae, pushing pins into a map of cities worldwide, collecting QSL cards, and falling asleep in his shack with his thumb and finger still holding his Morse code keyer.

    Hi to everyone. what a great old peice of film footage. The Phone-patch piece takes me back to my first night in Malaysia. I had only just got to my new unit there and found the Ham club with help from my new troop sergeant and the Squadron Forman of signals. Who was a ham. I met up with Maj. Salisbury (Bob) 9M2RH down at the ham shack and was left to it. I got In contact with a ham in Scotland who asked me what my mother-in - laws telephone number was. The next thing that happened was her voice comming back to me to let me know that unfortunatley my wife was not in to be able to speak to me. Phone patch was not leagal to uk hams, but all the ham was doing was letting me hear what was comming over his phone and visa-versa has I spoke he was letting my mother in law hear my voice comming back over the air. I bet that my mother in law could not believ her ears when the guy from Scotland told her that he had her son in law on the radio.

      Hi John those were the days. I was up at Quoy Chee for 3 months doing the conversion course from Radio Mechanic to Radio Technician [ Heavy ] . Held the call 9M6DY and was based over in Borneo. Ham Radio was more effective than the old ComCan network. That was my first foray into RTTY. I scrounged an old model 7B and built up the decoder etc. pinching pot coils from the Radio store lol. Was acting F of S - IC M troop Workshops.

    This is excellent! Seeing JY1 King Hussein of Jordan reminds me of working him in the 70s from K1KMV University of Rhode Island Radio Club. I worked him on 15 CW running a kilowatt into a 3 element beam at 100 feet, needless to say I had a very strong signal into Jordan. When JY1 responded to me I mistakenly asked him what the rest of his call sign was. He replied my call sign is JY1 and name is Hussein, I knew right away who it was... 3 weeks later we had a nice QSL card from him!

    To all asking about "better transfers." They exist - mostly done by me in 1985 on an RCA Film Chain - but these are the property of the ARRL even though they are in my possession. I have them on 3/4" U-Matic and Betacam SP but do not at present have video tape players for either format on my premises. However, Dave Bell, W6AQ, has done a compilation DVD of all of his ham radio films which he gave the ARRL. Included is an introduction to each show by Dave himself ARRL may have it out in 2012

    Great to see JY1. I worked him from my College club station at Lamar Tech in Beaumont, TX in, Oh, 1967. Our signal was so strong, we wrote lists for him to work. Had to break the pile-up to do this. Used a Drake 2B, HT-37, four 811A's Amp, and
    TH6DXX Yagi on the roof of one wing of the Electrical Engineering class rooms.

    @wa6dij That is not "added flicker". That in genuine, off the vintage 16mm projector flicker as actually projected and recorded by my video tape camera many years ago. Nothing has been added "for effect" to this post. That's how it actually looks when projected from the original film on a projector. The flicker is slightly more pronounced because a video camera doesn't react like the human eye to the frame rate (the eye "fills in" the flicker somewhat the video camera doesn't.)

    Woaw the spark-gap transmitter at sequence 3:10... ! I had never seen a so noisy one... The QSO with JY1 King Hussein at 14:20 is also nice. Note that JY1 was active until 1991 maybe a bit later.
    An interesting film. Thanks for sharing

  • @amp3cx10000a7jp
    @amp3cx10000a7jp 12 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    It is activity of the nostalgic ham radio of the 1970s.
    Although it did not QSO in Mr. K7UGA Goldwater, KC4USN and JY1 King Hussein are QSO(ing) those days.
    a collins line, SWAN yaesuFT101, TRIO[kenwood]TS520, etc. are seen and a walkie-talkie is also nostalgic.
    It is the wonderful transfer which exceeded the border, a race, and thought to ham radio.

  • @thebakerman1
    @thebakerman1 11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    This was an excellent video and as dated as it is I still found it very interesting. Ham radio has changed a lot since these earlier years and it looks like this video is possibly from the 1970's.
    King Hussein was an avid amateur in his day and it was good to see him operating here. He clearly understood the benefits of amateur radio and he certainly seemed to have a very likable demeanor about him. It's a shame he's gone now. He died in Feb 1999.

    Mike Davis wd6ffv, is still active on QRZ, but probably not active on HF with just over 1000 lookups.
    King Hussein passed away in 1991.
    That's one bodacious (yeah, CB term...so what?) field day station!
    Noticed use of the word "break". I wish this weren't considered such a "no-no" on ham radio today, as it is useful; particularly if you need just a short break to make a quick and done contact. I like to say "short break" so the ones operating know that I won't be long.

    I know the flicker post was a whole year ago but I wanted to say I transferred some old silent 8mm film to DVD and I also had the flicker effect but was able to get rid of it by changing the frame rate. This pretty much eliminated this issue for me. I mention this only in the event someone else sees it because it may help you get rid of it as well :)

    I sure I got my license sooner then I did. The CW requirement was an issue back in the early 90s, but I know could have over come that obstacle and learned CW. Then an CB wasn't too bad, even though CB is restricted to 40 channels. The down fall to CB is there a lot nonsense with individuals using profanity and using excessive power that is way above the legal 4 watts. Yep, I'm glad I got my license, because I can send my voice or thoughts around world with out leaving home.

    What does jy1 mean? What does the y mean.
    My friend in the mid 60s, said he contacted the king on his Ha-Am radio. Ha-Am (the people) has a more kosher sound than ham :)
