Amateur radio construction – Steve G0FUW and Pete N6QW
Despite what many people think, building your own radio equipment is still a very popular aspect of amateur radio.
In fact there has never been a better time to do this, with readily accessible building blocks and high spec test equipment available at bargain basement prices, or, in the case of software, absolutely free.
This presentation covers the reasons why people homebrew radio equipment, share some ideas on how to get started and provides some examples of homebrew gear, and using hardware and software.

Starting out on the microwaves bands – Neil G4LDR
‘Starting Out on the Microwave Bands’ will provide basic information needed to understand the microwave bands and how to become operational on them.
Topics covered will include:
- What are the microwave bands
- Propagation properties and microwave beacons
- What classes of licence can use which microwave bands
- Equipment requirements including antennas and transverters
- Examples of typical equipment including simple wideband systems
- Operating on the microwave bands including satellites, contests and activity periods
- Resources to help you get going on the microwave bands
Those who become operational on the microwave bands will find there are plenty of opportunities to try the many aspects of this part of the hobby. These include operating portable from a hill top using relatively simple equipment; satellite operating; DXing; trying different operating modes including CW, voice, digital and even DATV; right through to probably the most challenging part of the hobby, moonbounce or EME.

Limburgse Radiovrienden
Elke 1e woensdag van de maand om 19:30 vindt er in Heerlen een meeting plaats van gemiddeld 25 man, bestaande uit het merendeel van radio hobbyisten.
Nu de avondklok weer beeindigd is gaat deze avond weer door, maar onder toepassing van stricte Corona regels. Met name het afstand houden en er wordt GEEN alcohol geschonken.
Het doel ( opgericht in januari 2001) van deze club is om maandelijks met elkaar wat (technische) kennis en ideeën uit te wisselen, maar ook om zo even wat bij te praten.
Soms worden ook radio’s te koop aangeboden of vindt er ruiling van toestellen plaats.
De leden zijn ook van verschillende komaf, dus je hoeft niet persé een technicus te zijn om een radiohobby uit te oefenen.
Heel vaak draait het op een leuke chat sessie uit en praten we vaak wat bij wat we de afgelopen tijd hebben gedaan aan onze hobby.
Meestal zijn we toch met gemiddeld 20 man bij elkaar.
Ofschoon de avond om 19:30 uur begint is het voor je het weet al gauw 22:00 uur. De bezoekers komen uit alle uithoeken van Limburg en een deel van Noord Brabant.
Je hoeft geen lid te zijn om eens een bezoekje te brengen. Om de zaalhuur te dekken wordt wel per avond per persoon € 2,50 entree gevraagd. Verder gelden de normale consumptieprijzen.
Op onderstaande foto’s krijg je een indruk van een aantal min of meer vaste leden.
Elke 1e woensdag van de maand 19:30 – 22:00
