Indeed! Let's see if we can out-topic the mudslingers in here with real technical topics.
Here's what I'm working on:
I just ordered a replacement microphone for my FT-847, as it did not come with one.
The 3D printed passive Lindenblad article is written and needs a good going over before submission to the journal. On-air experience is good!
I've ordered some 433MHz SAW filter (RFMi) from Mouser to install at the output of my homebrew LNA. Hopefully this will reduce overload of the FT-847. A FCDP+, with it's internal SAW, works very well with that antenna and LNA, so I think I'm on the right track.
That have y'all been working on?
