The Antenna - Buy or Build? Ham radio has changed over the years...Do you still build antenna's, or do you buy a commercial product?
[387 votes since 2008-11-20]
  I still build my all my own...
  No time/inclination to build, I buy commercial...
  My station uses a combination of both...
  I'm an Experimenter, always constructing/trying something new...
  I'd love to build, but for reasons, I can't...
  I have a limited income, I HAVE to Build!

Strays Add a Stray!
Does anyone have any experience with the Feature Tech AW06A antenna analyzer? I have been looking for an alternative to the normal $300-$400 analyzers and this seems to be a reasonable option. There are no reviews pro or con on this product. I saw it on CheapHam.com and at $140 it seems to be a deal. Any info would be helpful. Please reply to g_dub54@yahoo.com. Thanks and 73 to all. - Gary

DXCC Status
A contributor states, "Currently there are only two countries that do not issue Amateur Radio licenses to their citizens, Yemen and North Korea. Thousand of deserving Ham's worldwide who enjoy working DX are shut out of any hope of obtaining the #1 Top of the Honor Roll status due to this. It would seem rational that these two countries (and any others who take a similar position) should be deleted from the official DXCC list in view of this. Why recognize a country on the DXCC list that does not recognize Amateur Radio? What say you?"

Shack Showcase K4DGW's somewhat messy shack
K4DGW's somewhat messy shack A set of Heathkit twins that I put on the air occasionally with a straight key. Primary rig is a TS-570D(G) that I use for SSB and CW. Digital rig is a IC-718. Also setup for 2m FM and 2m packet. Been in the hobby less than 2 years and I am enjoying it very much.
