What’s the Buzz?
 Eclectic Tech – Episode 31 – April 8The PSK31 digital mode is still very much alive, and many amateurs are using it to rediscover the joys of real keyboard-to-keyboard conversation. Also, QST and QEX author Phil Salas, AD5X, discusses the revolution taking place in small, inexpensive Vector Network Analyzers, or VNAs.  .

Support the W1AW Endowment Fund
 The Hiram Percy Maxim Memorial Station tells the story of amateur radio. It uses Maxim’s revered call sign, W1AW, and is the home of “Old Betsy,” the spark-gap transmitter he built more than 100 years ago. Today, the station is a modern facility that is on the air every day.
This valuable resource needs your help. Maintaining the historic building and having up-to-date equipment requires a tremendous financial commitment. Support for this comes from the W1AW Endowment Fund. Your donation to the fund will help keep the station in top condition for hams now and in the future. Please go to arrl.org/arrl-donation-form to donate. Thank you for your support! |
