I am doing a presentation for the Philmont Radio Club based on my CQ
magazine article from a year or so ago. It?s entitled ?How I Became a
Lunatic? where I discuss my first experiences in making EME contacts. They
have invited SJRA members to join this coming Wednesday if you wish.
Details are below. If you login around 7:15 that should get you there in

Message-ID: <A3AD0B86-BB87-41D8-A1F1-65DFA50C4759@applegate.org>

The latest issue of Harmonics had an excellent article by Al KD2ST about building a simple but effective wire antenna.  Al broke down the cost of various pieces assuming someone had to buy many of the parts brand new.  The single most expensive item on the list is the coax cable.

Well, I?ve been replacing a lot of cable at my station and have a couple chunks of RG-213U, which is UV protected, can be directly buried, and can easily handle full legal power.  They ran from the bulkhead connectors at the top of the tower down to the remote antenna switch at the base.  They were not connected to the antennas; no flexing from antenna rotations.  Now, both pieces are about 16 years old but I did a loss analysis and found they were still quite good.  Sorry, I forget the actual dB loss but it was pretty close to brand new cable at 30 MHz.  PL-259s at both ends of both cables.

The part numbers indicate they are 85? each.

The price?  Free.  Pick-up in Medford, or if you?re in the area I could even drop them off at your front step.

Email if interested.

Lots of interest, but it is gone.

I might have more this summer? I?d like to replace the 100? runs to the base of the tower.

Rumors I suspect are circulating that installation of the K2AA station at
the Deer Park Fire Station has been completed. The crew put it 2 days this
week taking advantage of the great wx and while I can report that we are
nearly done with our work, the station has not been fully commissioned and
is under testing at this point. Once it has been fully checked out by the
committee members we will notify membership that it is available for use by
SJRA members only. At that time you will be reminded of operation and
protocols.

Thanks for your patience on what has been a long time in coming but
hopefully winter is over and we can soon have the station on the air!

Hi,

 

Fascinating- I did not know that Sears sold amateur radio equipment.  They
had a very comprehensive 64 page catalog (attached) back in 1940.

 

The scan is 13 MB so hopefully the reflector will allow this large
attachment.

That was really neat to see.  Thanks for sending this!!
A few take away observations from a quick scan...
1)  Receivers and transmitters were sold as separate devices/purchases.
2)  Test equipment was more prolific than and almost as expensive as the transmitters/receivers.
3)  Sears offered NO antenna equipment?
4)  A Presto Portable Recorder (portable 45 rpm record maker) cost only $169.50 and could set you up in the recording business for making records with singers or bands and cost more than a transmitter.  I didn't know these were even available to the general public?
5) I don't think any of the manufacturers/name brands they sold are still around today.
6)  Looks like Sears was a front runner of the "Easy Pay" plan, apparently charging about 10% interest to go on the payment plan. 

Cool Stuff!!

What a find Al. I want a new Speed X 320 key for $ 1.91 + .14 shipping and an ARRL
Handbook for $ 1.00 postpaid. Charge my still valid Sears card, no easy pay plan.

Hi,



Fascinating- I did not know that Sears sold amateur radio equipment.  They
had a very comprehensive 64 page catalog (attached) back in 1940.



The scan is 13 MB so hopefully the reflector will allow this large
attachment.



73,

We've been doing some testing and I can now open up ONLY VHF/UHF operation
using the RemoteHams RCForb Client software. Today we identified a problem
with HF operation that we hope to correct next week when the WX improves.
DO NOT attempt to operate on HF until further notice.

For those of you wanting to use the remote station on VHF or UHF, there has
been an audio problem that has now been corrected. Sorry for any
inconvenience.

I hope we can correct the HF issue next week when the warmer wx arrives.

Last night we took the wraps off of the K2AA remote station. It is now
available for use on 180-10 meters as well as VHF & UHF. PLEASE carefully
read through the attached tutorial before you attempt to use the station.
Once you get the hang of it it's fun and easy!

If you want to use the station and have not yet been approved to transmit
on it you must contact me first so I can set up the server software to
recognize you. I will add you to the approved list ASAP.

73s and have fun

Hi Bob,

You can?t connect any Hot Spot, including the OpenSpot2 or 3, to Yaesu?s WiresX network, they are not compatible.  Since the SJRA repeaters are not connected to the YSF or FCS networks, that approach won?t work either.  

What will work is to setup a Yaesu Portable Digital Node (PDN) which takes a Yaesu compatible transceiver like a FT2D, FT3D, FTM400 or a FTD300, the special Yaesu connection cable, a PC with an internet connection and free Yaesu software.  You will have to register the transceiver you use with Yaesu and receive your node and room ID DTMF codes.  This will allow connection to any WiresX node or room including the SJRA machines.  See the Yaesu web site for details.  My PDN system is down now but Jack WA2HJG has a system that was featured on the cover of Harmonics a few months ago.  If you own one of the compatible transceivers and PC, the cable is sold at HRO for about $60, your total new cost.  I hope this helps. 

73, John WY2J

That probably won?t work either, with the two repeaters connected, all I get when I try to connect is ?Offline Etror?

You will have to register the transceiver you use with Yaesu and receive your node and room ID DTMF codes.  This will allow connection to any WiresX node or room including the SJRA machines.  See the Yaesu web site for details.  My PDN system is down now but Jack WA2HJG has a system that was featured on the cover of Harmonics a few months ago.  If you own one of the compatible transceivers and PC, the cable is sold at HRO for about $60, your total new cost.  I hope this helps.

Hi Craig,

I haven?t tried to connect to either repeater in over a year via WiresX but in the past it did work with my PDN.  Both repeaters should be connected to WiresX with internet connections but this objective has been walked away from over the years by trying to do it on the cheap.

I have been told the introduction of Echo Link on K2AA has really screwed things up.  Also K2AA has had hardware problems that have plagued it for years and remain unfixed.  I gave up trying to encourage the SJRA Officers and BOD to get serious about fixing these problems.  There is just no interest in C4FM and WiresX within the current administration.  Maybe the new one will get serious and stay with it until finished.  

And our third repeater is still off the air with no visible plan on what to do with it.
 
73,
John WY2J

John,

Thanks for clarifying that there are existing issues. I'm new to the club. I had read on the SJRA webpage that Wires-X was active on the repeaters. However, when I've tried connecting to the K2AA repeater I keep getting transmit errors on my FTM-100D. I thought it was me, but I've had success doing the same with other Wires-X repeaters. I wasn't sure what was going on.

Just to add and echo everyone else, my experience has been the following:

I just tested with my FT3D and was able to connect using the x button.? Obviously you would need to be in range of the k2aa repeater.? If theres another wires repeater by you, you'd be able to connect to that and then control it to? join the k2aa room. 

If you use the kit cable with a PC and the wires x and join the k2aa room you can do the same thing, although im not sure you will have the ability to have the repeater join other rooms

The hotspot rooms aren't the "real" rooms but with at least piStar, you are able to connect DMR to Wires type rooms.? I can't confirm if the dmr rooms are "real" but i was able to talk to someone with dmr via my wiresx.? "It worked" but not sure it was worth the effort-- was fun to try and see if we could make it happen :)

On a seperate note with piStar i wound up getting a screen and using someones code that displays flags based on call signs which makes it pretty neat when talking in those ysf rooms.

I have had similar issues trying to connect to K2AA via WIRES-X, but I haven?t tried recently.
