Baby's first unun!
My #AmateurRadio journey continues with making some of my own equipment...
I wanted to be able to connect either an EFHW or an EFRW to my KX3, but move the actual antenna away from the radio, so that I can POTA with other people close enough to talk, while keeping the antennas for the different out of each others' near field so they don't interere. To …

Partially-assembled unun. A nut on the upper right is connected to the coax shield, and is connected to a brass screw on the right for a counterpoise connection. A blue 100pf capacitor is in the upper left of a purple 3d-printed box, connected between ground and the center terminal of the input. At the bottom, the 6th turn is tapped and run to another brass screw which provides the 9:1 random wire connection. A strand of red magnet wire goes up to the upper left over the blue capacitor; it conn…
The internals of the unun with kapton tape covering the torroid, and the 49:1 antenna connection brass screw in the lid at the upper left.
The assembled unun with two wires attached. At the top is a wire next to a ground symbol on the side of the 3d-printed box. This wire is the counterpoise. On the lower right is another wire connected to the side of the box. This is the random wire connected to the 9:1 antenna connection. At the lower left, in the middle of the lid, is the antenna connection for an end-fed half-wave antenna.

Each of the terminals uses a heat-set insert as a finger nut to connect the antennas.

Wenn "Minecraft" und Co. die Leinwand erobern
Viele Game-Verfilmungen sind in der Vergangenheit gescheitert, "The Last Of Us" wurde zum Megaerfolg. Wann gelingen sie – und wann nicht?

For any observant souls who spotted my #MicroPrompt before an edit, yes, I originally had a typo, sorry for any confusion! If Timeome as a word makes you think of anything I will also totally take that as a prompt word! Or you can just write inspired by typos in general! !

I understand that people think their microphone is off when they have muted the microphone in the online meeting. Now, consider that the meeting software reminds you that your sound is muted when you speak.

[”Your microphone is muted.”]

It does this because your sound isn’t really muted… the software ”heard” you. The sound is just not transferred to other participants. But there is of course nothing stopping the software from capturing your sound anyway.

This is one o…

If you don’t have a mute button on your microphone, the next best thing is software that will mute your microphone at the system level. MicDrop is an example of an app I’ve tried for this (Mac only): https://getmicdrop.com

You know it’s working when the meeting software starts throwing an ”error” and saying it’s not picking up sound from your microphone.

My tome has
bloodstains and
tearstains and
ripped up pages.
I treasure the mess. But I also cherish the
abstract glitter doodles I've
left in the borders of my
paper-pressed heart, the
shimmering blue of dream that sometimes
flecks the red ink and corrects it to something
a little softer. It's a
book of contradiction, and
every bit is
true.
Especially the tired unicorns. #MastoPrompt #MicroPrompt #WSS366 ,

The tome's cover shifted whenever I looked at it—a cottage bordered in sunflowers, an underwater city of gleaming coral and abalone, a pair cuddled up in a rocker by a cozy fireplace. I stroked its spine and turned it over to read the jacket, but those words shifted, too, shimmering and abstract, so that I couldn't quite grasp them. But I caught snippets, such alluring snippets! I made myself a cup of tea and turned to the first page. #MastoPrompt #MicroPrompt #WSS366
