Arduino Ham Radio Starter Kit – Open New Gateways
Welcome to my Arduino Ham Radio Starter Kit, a “virtual box” of ideas and motivations with one objective: More hams and their clubs engaging the local maker community as a gateway to amateur radio. (Spoiler Alert: We are not selling anything. Starter Kit is information only!) Read more
Making the Most of Useless Frequencies
Ham radio is about making the most of useless frequencies. And supporting scientific discovery along the way. Read more
Ham Radio Parity is about Antennas
Ham radio parity is a big deal for hams and shortwave listeners in America. Parity makes it easier to use outdoor antennas. Here’s how. Read more
Solar Cycles – Enjoy those Sunspots
I was surprised to see tons of signals on the 15 meter ham band this weekend. Solar cycles effect how well radio signals propagate, and latest cycle has not been very good. Read more
Morse Decoder Circuit Completed
I have finished the breadboard testing and and finalized the Arduino Morse Decoder circuit. Here is the description. Read more
Recording Radio Signals with SDR
Recording radio signals is easy with modern software defined radios. Read more
Morse Decoder First Run Successful
My Morse Decoder first run was successful. Building the prototype quickly gets you on the learning curve faster. Read more
