My friend from Seaside has asked me to sell his "Elk Antennas 2M/440L5 Dual-Band Antenna". It appears to still be brand new and never used. I pulled it out of the bag today and I'm not sure if it has ever been out before.
https://elkantennas.com/product/dual-band-2m440l5-log-periodic-antenna/
If you were to buy this antenna with the way it is configured today, it goes for $162.95 plus the bag of $28.95. Shipping to LG is $17.60. Grand total of $209.5
I'm asking $150. I'll bring it to the meeting if anyone is interested.

Re: VE session Tuesday at 5pm - Need Extra Class VEs
Ok I have Ted, Dennis and myself for today's test. So I have enough people to do the test.? If anyone else wants to come, please do. More the better.
Ted and Dennis, Please remember to look up your passwords for Exam Tools. I think I will bring my label printer tonight, so if you also bring your VE badges, maybe I can put a password reminder on the back.

Re: An interesting YouTube video I found
Sounds great. Thanks for sharing

I stumbled upon this fascinating video today on one of the YouTube channels I follow. The link starts around the 9-minute mark and delves deeper into the world of radio. I found it incredibly intriguing, not only because it sheds a little light on the fascinating history of radio but also because it revealed a surprising aspect of Amelia Earhart’s navigation - radio played a pivotal role in it! If you’re into history, radio, or simply curious about how Amelia Earhart used radio to navigate, I highly recommend checking it out. Here are some of the topics covered in the video that might pique your interest:
- History of radio
- The discovery of radio waves
- Various uses of radio
- Frequency skip
- Loop antennas
- Sense antennas
- Locating source radio waves
- The significance of communication and planning
The video is quite short, clocking in at around 35 minutes, even if you watch it from the beginning. It left me intrigued and inspired to try out the radio source location technique mentioned in the video. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

SSTV via the ISS this all this week
Good Morning,
??? The ISS is now transmitting SSTV images for the next few days. If you want to try to receive them, all you need is an HT tuned to 145.800. Then using a smart phone download a SSTV app to convert the sounds to a picture.
For Android download Robot36
For Apple download SSTV Slow Scan TV (they do charge money though)
Take a look at the N2YO web pages below for pass times and predictions. Also, placing your HT antenna parallel to the earth tends to pick up a better reception if it is over head.
