Let's Start the New Year with... THE KNACK!

Happy New Year everyone!  Our friend Rogier PA1ZZ sent this to me. I'm sure there are parts of it that people will disagree with, but the overall message (BUILD THINGS!) is, I think, right for this group. Thanks Rogier! 

 

"Rig Here is Homebrew" -- The Joys and Sorrows of Building your own Rigs

This is kind of a re-run.  I came across it today on YouTube and thought it was pretty good.  So here it is again.  

 -------------------

Dean KK4DAS asked me to speak to our local radio club, the Vienna Wireless Society.   It was a lot of fun.  I talked about my evolution as a homebrewer, some of the rigs I made, the moments of joy, and the tales of woe.   You can watch the presentation in the video above. 

I was really glad to be able to explain in the presentation the importance of people like Pete, Dex, Farhan, Wes, Shep and even Dilbert. 

I was also pleased to get into the presentation the N2CQR sign that Peter VK2EMU made for me.  Thanks Peter!

Dilbert Knack Video: Who was the "Doctor"?

I was looking at this again and I realized that there was more to it than I thought.  Who was the "doctor" who was filling in for their regular doctor?
