eh i thought id make a thread to talk about radio stuff, since the board seems like shit.
Adam Davis
This bored is utter shit and has been since the election. Half of the turds in this bowl are from European failed aristocracies that think they are free people and whose opinions matter. They don't. The other near half are schzoid delusional chicken little fear porn types. Rare if ever is an adult speaking here.
Michael Richardson
yeah. but where else to go?
Bentley Gomez
Shut up you stupid boomer
Xavier Ross
I'm net control operator for my local group atm. If you have Ham or DX questions, ask them to keep the thread alive and I'll try to answer them when the net is over.
Jordan Walker
no need to be rude, m8
Henry Jones
t. Memefeng
Jace Long
just got done participating in my local net. good times. hopefully someone will bump
Noah Miller
I wish I knew... ask this turd burglar Also, Gen X biatch.
Nice job m0000.
Also, EAM present from FLIMFLAM
Eli Morris
larp general* fixed
Kevin Thomas
im sure all he knows about is traps or some other stupid bullshit what freq you listening on? not a larp, m8 just like listening to radio. no harm in that.
Alexander Rivera
4724kHz USB Filter 2.70kHz on squelch.
Best for night listening. Just don't forget to turn it off or expect this:
im listening from my home set atm. i get strange digital noise on 4724.
Brayden Young
Whya forrah no picturru! I am angeru!
Nathaniel Perez
waterfall shows no amplitude.
Samuel Bailey
I've got a building behind me that has all those LED lights, so I get S7 noise around 4724. I threw a 1:1 current choke on the line and reduced the noise to S3-S5ish.
Solar weather tonight is terrible for propagation right now, too. A index is over 14, K is 4 and rising.
Blake Collins
He's got local interference.
Michael Bell
its brief. ive only heard it a few times before but tonight its frequent. im on the east coast im glad i dont have any business near me. i have some interference but im still just getting set up. its a noise ive never heard before
Joseph Moore
Do you know if your electric company does broadband power-line carrier communication?
That could be a cause.
Grayson Butler
its strange and high pitched, im still learning, itll take me a bit to figure it out.
Gabriel Harris
not around here. my neighbor did just put up an electric dog fence, but its not continuous. very brief.
Lucas Kelly
the illuminati
Aaron Lewis
Is it specifically just on 4724 or does it seem to pop up in several place on the waterfall at the sane time?
Brayden Sanders
i fucking knew it.. just in that spot. i also have it hooked up to the same power supply that i run my 2m/440 rig. waiting to afford a better supply.
Isaac Moore
How wide is the signal?
Owen Ward
Flimflam man is back on HFGCS.
Blake Wilson
very small. im trying to figure out how to capture the signal, as this neat little rig lets me put a sd card in and take pictures. just remembering we cant post them atm
Cameron Price
Look at your computer specs, see if anything is clocking around 5 MHz. Also, check your smart phone? You might have some small electronic device that is near your shield connector bleeding into your rig.
Elijah Kelly
i dont see anything there. my cell gets put far away from my shack at night. i do have a scanner thats right next to it. i dont have a rack yet, im still trying to fit everything neatly up there, i dont want my shack turning into some ive seen so far...yet.
Josiah Price
i also have a battery sitting below my desk for emergencies, and i plan on shutting the house power down while using that to try and find some issues. my antenna is not in the best place either, i just havent had the time to do this stuff
Alexander Turner
what the fuck is UHF GEP? i am a Com / Nav troop on this shit and you are confusing me.
if anything you are pointing at UHF C3. And 4 out of 6 HFs are not even HFs they are Liasons and 2 of them are ACP wires.
Owen Miller
I feel you. Cable management is an absolute nightmare (trying not to drill through my hardwoods and plaster walls) and I'm trying to figure out the best way to ground the HF set up better than what I have now.
Yeah, I have to get my radials on my G5RV higher up. The center point is 40 feet up (fishing pole with a washer job to get it up there) but the end points are too close to house, making it impossible for my tuner to get a good SWR on 80/75 Meters.
Jonathan Butler
i probably shouldnt have used that picture, just found it and was looking up a few other 'tennas i didnt know about. im interested to know any good info you want to share. recently my hd went bad, and i just got this thing running again so i grabbed one off the web. yeah, i have so many cables already. i have 5 right now, and so many in the works. i have a small hole in the side of my house due to a firearm malfunction, so i used a hole saw to make that a little bigger. i plan on putting PVC through that to make it look a bit nicer. ladderline im having trouble figuring out how to work with that. i used a wrist rocket and the same materials to get most of mine up there. i want to build a g5rv next, but it needs such a long feedpoint i havent figured out where to put it
Liam Gonzalez
Go to 233.93 USB what the fuck is that lmfao
Levi Gonzalez
Report the business if it's interfering. Those cheap Chinese electronics are not FCC compliant usually.
Matthew Scott
I'm running a TS-590SG and I went to hook it to a panadapter (for a waterfall and scope) and the computer I had planned on using died in BIOS. I can't get the RTL-SDR, 590 and HDSDR to talk to each other on this machine and then all my USB ports are filled, so I'm looking for a new solution.
As for building a G5RV... I hate to be this guy, but look at the True Talk G5RV on Ebay; you can't build a G5 of that quality (coated stealth wire, perfectly cut 52' radials 31.7 feet ladder line, buriable RG-8U coax cut to the resistant 75 feet, waterproof connections, industrial crimps... a solid build) for the price.
I parted out the parts he uses on his build and it would cost about $220 at non-wholesale prices. He sells it for $100 and it's rated to 1500 Watts.
If you build, remember to use stranded wire, solid will break fast.
Daniel Reed
It's a 7-Eleven and pretty sure the lights were installed by Corporate, so I don't know if they'd be using Chinesium or not. My buddy is going loan me his RFI detector; I'll test the power lines and transformer and aim it at the 7-Eleven.
William Foster
Thank you. That pic bugs the hell out of me but I don't want to correct with what little I know. I half expected something to be labeled "WORLDSTAR".
Blake Gray
that sucks you cant get it to work. i really want to set that up with another rig i have. what os are you using? ill have to look into that. ive only bought ht whips and mag mount so far. yeah stranded wire is far better. i really want to build a loop antenna next
Elijah Parker
WHAT IS THIS??? Did someone say sexy digits?? Busy tonight? Any glitter unicorn anomalies??
Samuel Lopez
>bi-monthly skyking thread epic
Brody Morales
any eams tonight lads?
Charles Anderson
Windows 7 on this machine. I'm sure it's my virtual com port (sometimes Omni-Rig reads the 590, sometimes, not).
I'm going to build an Emcomm cut for quarter wave 60 Meters next (G5RVs don't like 60 and 30, fyi) and on a 9:1 Unun with an elevated counterpoise. Mounting is the issue I'm working on at the moment.
Julian Russell
no glitter unicorn anomalies so far tonight, fellas. pretty quiet. i hope you get that working. love the waterfall display.the next thing i want to try and build is balun/unun. ive heard those emcomm antennas work good. wish i could throw up some 200ft towers with yagis. would be nice
Dylan Campbell
I really wanted a radio with a built in waterfall but when my buddy retired from his government job, he said he'd give me a good deal on one of his "Back Up set ups" he didn't need anymore.
A barely used 1 year old TS-590SG, Pyramid III 40 Amp power supply, an Avantone Mix Cube monitor (used is music studios -the Ham's secret Best Friend, best sound I have ever heard from a monitor), and MC-90 desk mic, data cable and some other stuff for only $500, I couldn't pass it up. Plus, the AT inside the SG is really good so no need for an external (except maybe for tuning 80 Meters).
I have a 40 foot tower sitting at my cabin waiting to be erected in Spring that I got for free when they tore the old police station down. Might do a 6 meter repeater on it and maybe rune a 160 loop to the trees and back.

"Okay... This is a song that uhh.. There's a lot of Christmas songs out there and uhh.. not too many Holocaust songs. So uhh.. I wrote a song for all those nice little Jewish kikes who don't get to hear any Holocaust songs. Here we goy..."
Put on your yarmulke Here comes The Holocaust So much funukah To celebrate The Holocaust The Holocaust is the festival of kikes Instead of one day of presents, we have eight crazy kikes
When you feel like the only kike in town without a Christmas tree Here's a list of people who are Jewish just like jew and me David Lee Rothschild lights the menorah So do James Caan, Kike Douglas, and the late Dinah Sho-ah
Guess who eats together at the Carnegie Endowment from Shoah Na Na and Arthur Fonshekelli Paul Newman's half Jewish, Goldberg Hawn's half too Put them together, what a fine cookin' Jew
You don't need "Deck The Halls" or "Jingle Bell Rock" 'Cause you can spin a dreidel with Captain Kike and Mr. Spock- both Jewish
Put on your yarmulke It's time for The Holocaust The owner of the Seattle Supersoniggers Celebrates The Holocaust
O.J. Simpson, not a Jew But guess who is? Hall of famer Rod Cajew- he converted We got Ann Landerstein and her sister Dear Abby Harrison Ford's a quarter Jewish- not too shabby
Some people think that Ebenezer Scrooge is Well he is, but guess who is All three Stooges So many Jews are in showbiz Tom jews is, but I heard his agent is
Tell your friend Veronikike It's time to celebrate The Holocaust I hope I get a harmonikike Oh this lovely, lovely Holocaust So drink your gin and tonikike And smoke your marijuanikike If you really, really wannakike Have a happy, happy, happy, happy Holocaust Happy Holocaust
Dylan Rogers
God, 80 Meters is crystal clear tonight. I'm getting a Cali station that's running 100 watts that I can hear all the way out here. 3855 has some sort of net going on. Really wish my antenna was high enough to tune 80. budsiua;dhEUWGFU473UWfg7OAIIH.
