    You can set the VOX delay to a setting that will keep the transmitter keyed in between words. It works quite well.

    A very good explanation of the basics.
    Always enjoyable to watch your productions and I always take something away that is most useful.

    Great video on basics. I built an efhw with the 49:1 transmatch based on your video and it works great!

    Great Video! Just what I needed. Thank you! If I may, I like to make a couple of suggestions. Yes, you should definitely read your transceiver’s owners manual first but a quick reference manual may also be available. I was able to buy one for my Yeasu 3000. Also, please consider your spouse/family when choosing your station location. For example, they may not appreciate you disappearing for hours into your ham shack or basement. A station in the main living area be a better choice for domestic tranquillity or you may be out of the hobby.

    Hi,
    supposing you were setting up with a foundation licence and wished to use a vertical antenna mounted to a pole on a garage, looking for a secondhand transceiver t reach as far and wide as is possible what would you look for?

    The radio is indoors. The antenna is outdoors. Needed some ideas about connecting the two, considering the complication that an outside wall is in the way 😢

    Hi, earthing the station. Any recommendations? I do appreciate that it is 'safety' question, I am looking for ideas. My radio is an upstairs bedroom, meaning running an earth wire out of the window is not viable; is using the central heating system which of course is well earthed, a possibility? Thanks in advance.

    Did you say that even with global warming we still get cold days and night (10:20)? Are they gas-lighting you about this so called global worming there in England too? The propagandists are pushing that same lie here in the U.S. and in Arizona suddenly we had "record" temperatures even though the actual temperatures were average and never peaked higher than past years. Yet I have observed people who actually believe it feels hotter, even though the temperatures are no different than any typical season 10, 20, 30 or 50 years ago. Anyway, I do find it odd that with enough propaganda and gaslighting, people's perceptions can be effected to the point where you have to remind them to heat their shed.

      If some of us can stick around long enough we will know the answer!

      ​@@watersstantonI can remember Al Gore telling us 20-30 years ago that New York City would be underwater,,, it's still there Pete!!!

    • @lmaoroflcopter
      @lmaoroflcopter 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      ​@@ekbanjosworld4926yes. Primarily because we have reduced greenhouse emissions. Same with acid rain, back in the early 90s it was a genuine concern with crop yields demonstrably being affected. Thankfully governments, companies and people have put the effort in and actually reduced harmful emissions.
      You may not, but thankfully not everyone in the world is as dim-witted and ignorant as yourself.

    I would leave political comments of the global warming sort, off your channel.

      Too late, he done stepped in it !!! What a joke !!! Next thing he'll have Greta Thuneburg on here screaming at us to stop driving our cars and eating steaks because of all the cows farting in our atmosphere!!!😮😮😮😂😂😂

      Yet you seem to think it fine to place your political comments on his channel.
      Hypocrisy much.
