April 18, 2025 General Club Meeting

Since we assume that everyone is interested in radio, we’ll be looking at some various types of software defined radios. While these radios can listen to amateur radio frequencies, you can also explore the radio waves that are all around you. These radios are fun to use and the software for them is generally free.

 

Please join us this Friday!

Collins 30L1 linear amplifier. Perfect condition. Good for about 600W on CW or SSB. 400W on ft8. (power supply wasn’t designed for digital service).
I have added stability modifications to prevent parasitic oscillations. Wired for 240V but can be used on 120V.

$500
