I've noticed that they are now accepting PayPal, so I thought I would browse around. Purchased a few items a couple of weeks ago and received first item, a multi-tester, TC1 for $11.48USD + free shipping. It shipped from a depot in eastern Canada. I've had one of these for a few years now but it...

... not likely, being they are at 25.9 Ghz. See link below for details; https://spectrum.ieee.org/james-webb-telescope-communications

Found this news article on Yahoo. Wonder how they came up with this name? https://news.yahoo.com/man-jailed-sending-6-lewd-images-telegram-group-085733257.html

... not quite but almost as elusive, Mikes Radio Repair! He recently responded to one of his video's. I was watching one of his on the GE 3-5825B and scrolled through the comments to find this;

Just came in from a dissatisfied eBay customer; "All the caps are 36 volt while my radio is 12 volt. Is this some illegal kit designed to boost power beyond the FCC limits? If it is I will contact Ebay as I am not a criminal. You will take the kit back or I will contact Ebay tomorrow." Oh my...

Aloha. I know we have a few members from that area. Anyone care to share some personal stories/photo's with what is going on there?

I was monitoring a local SDR on 20m and viewed something I've never seen before ... a call sign displayed on the waterfall. How is that done? If it is only a function of the SSTV mode, could it not be incorporated into a voice mode? Like a roger beep feature that would ID the station at each key-up.

Many advantages. Me not being a RF or Audio Engineer, I ponder how these new devices would operate in our vintage CB/HAM radio's. A few links of interest below; https://product.tdk.com/en/techlibrary/solutionguide/mlcc_replace-guide.html

Some things never change.

I do not have one of these microphones on hand to physically inspect but after reviewing the schematic I count 6 electrolytics. Worthy of me putting together a kit. I suspect these are axials but one does not gleam that information from a schematic. Could anyone confirm whether these are axials...

Pleasantly suprized/shocked when I received an item from a Chinese eBay seller the other day. Took only 202 days since I ordered. I received a refund a long time ago due to non-delivery. 50% of my orders from eBay China never shows up. I guess this is a good thing that it actually arrived...

I was forced to do some maintenance on my IMAX 2000 installation. Earlier high winds had unscrewed the top section and threw it to the ground. It was stuck in the ground like a javelin. Fortunately and amazingly no damage was done. I cleaned up the threads and reattached. I have a bottle of...

Yikes! Another good one on Yahoo news. Broadband Internet for whole village in UK shut down every day @ 7:00am. Took the experts 18 months to figure it out. Maybe they should have used the tinySA instead for troubleshooting...

... and did you have to return it to Cherry Point? Just read about a thief who stole test equipment from the military and then sold them on eBay. Must have been some good deals ... https://news.yahoo.com/millions-military-gear-vanishes-until-201849086.html

Just came across one of these. I've been looking at 10Mhz reference clocks for years and watching the price continue to drop. Is this something a hobbyist could use on test equipment that has provision for an external 10.00000Mhz clock reference? https://www.ebay.ca/itm/224041680715?ul_noapp=true

I've opened up a new website outside of eBay. I'm sure there are a few that do not login there and will now have access to my kits. See link below; klondikemikescapkits.com

I just finished watching this recent episode with Danny stopping a trucker and asking to use his radio for an emergency call. Do you think if you needed to do the same would you get a response or just crickets? I put the video clip on my Google drive. See link below...

I've cleaned up Vol. 29. See link below. https://drive.google.com/open?id=1OZ_V6rxKeLHlwiqJPBpc79A4Mg2SmgUd
