Looks like the last post is a year old. Are there any hams/amateur radio operators here on lemmy? If so, what projects (if any) are you working on? I’m building a 5 element yagi for 2m.

    I think I have all the parts for a tape measure yagi but I’ve got a lot of life going on right now so that project has been sidelined :/

    I’m here. I have my tech license, but I don’t use my ham radio much because I really hate talking to strangers…

    …Oh…

    I got a trusdx a week ago. Going to make an efhw antenna for it today using a k6ark kit. So far looks like a great little radio. If you just want to receive then you only need a 5V supply.

      I built a qdx a while back but haven’t even gotten it on the air yet. I need to figure out 9v supply for it.

      The QMX is out now, but I’m making myself use the last one I built before I build another… But part of me likes putting the stuff together more than actual using it.
