3 rd Thursday this month 70MHz RSGB / DAC contest
see what can be catched with my 2 ele 4m of 3 band VHF246 DK7ZB
Band was noisy here local carriers sort of digi QRM
But signals present in this normally very quiet band.
managed 10 QSO in tropo scatter propagation

Today received the "Ukraine" 144 28 MHz transverter
I am planing to use it with the K3
First impression: very good, nice designed high quality unit
34$ ! 10W 144 146 +7$ shipping from Ukraine not from China this time

10W at 144 with the RD15VHF1 good! i use the same FET in the 5WPA QRP-LABS
this FET has it source at the cool flange easy!
Barely 5W out at 28MHz and 50MHz with 1W/ 700mW drive
must be somewhere an error here?
not yet tested also received 2 U3S from QRP-LABS
a lot of toy's to keep me busy
The new U3S PCB seems to differs slightly from the one a have build before
I had to figure out how to solder L1 there are 4 holes now
L1 25wdg choke coil symbol is now printed at the bottom side
Seems a new jumper to connect RF out over C5 that must be open if the 5W-PA is integrated
earlier this year needed C5 removed for use with the 5W-PA and LPF unit
My SOFTWARE ANNOYING ISSUES
I can not get into the QRPLAPS@groups.io
there is always some problem now it says my name is missing in the profile
But my name is there
And an old irritation key-layout opens over the input field
again i have to apply to become member of this group
But I was a member ? I could post some questions earlier
Do i have to go trough the whole circus again i get tired of this
This W7 PC also starts to get annoying
In Chrome sudden the microphone disabled icon is placed over the text screen
have to work around annoying
.. i can't get rit of it the microphone is normal enabled ...
it is just a ghost icon that popped up it is fixed in the screen memory and stays at front
The spell check that was sudden disabled could be enable again deep in the settings
but.... r-click shows the correct spelling suggestions but does not replace..
that has worked fine before until someone??? thought to improve the software??
annoying annoying
Also the HTC1 Android is annoying
