This morning I asked YouTube to show me recently posted videos of "ham radio homebrew." The results were disappointingly meager... except for the content of this site, which were downright inspirational.
Don't let the Italian language bother you. You can see what he has been doing just by watching the videos, the shorts, and the posts.
There is a lot of Manhattan-style construction here. There is even a Tuna Tin 2 (made in a mushroom can!). Above all, there is a lot of FB homebrewing in this site. Va bene!
Here is the YouTube site: https://www.youtube.com/@SelectaCs
Please view and subscribe. He could use the visits and we definitely want to encourage construction like this.
Also, who is he? Who is "Selecta Cs"? (Listening to his CQ in one of the videos, I think it is Samuele, IU2QBW.)

I searched for "homebrew ham radio transceiver" on You Tube and found several other interesting rigs, such as the SOTA Monster 1 - Homebrew QRP Transceiver by VK2AOE, and some by AE7AX, neither of whom have ever been mentioned on the Soldersmoke blog.

Walter: You should put these rigs on YOUR blog. I was saying that using my prompt (different from yours) and setting the search to "recently posted" I found the results "disapointingly meager." But hey, if you think there is a lot of good homebrewing going on out there, you should let the world know about it. Via your blog, OK? I liked the Italian receiver. So I put it on MY BLOG. 73 Bill
DeleteSamuele does good work. It's interesting he labels the rig's modules in English, and it's encouraging he pursues homebrewing (entirely analog) at a pretty-young age. Maybe there's more twenty-somethings in the United States doing the same thing than we realize. Chi sa le cose può le cose.
