Assembly the Sound card interface.

I re-checked problem the design. I make wrong circuit wire in PCB. I must be re-making PCB. After make PCB I assembly in box. In PCB have 2 circuits for Sound card Interface and CAT Interface.

The idea for include the USB interface and Sound card in same box.

Complete set up new antenna for EME

Special approved 6 meters for CQWW VHF 2010.

This year 2010. This is a good news for Amateur radio in Thailand. NTC(Nation Telecomunication Commistion of Thailand) has authorised to use 50-54 Mhz in CQWW VHF contest 2010 or 48 hours on July 17-18, 2010.

"RAST had applied for permission to operate on six-metres during the CQWW VHF Contest this year following a suggestion by RAST Committee member John/Narissara, HS1CHB, during a committee meeting in May, 2010" news from http://www.qsl.net/rast/

6 meters has many hams have call a magic band because this is VHF band can communication in long distance.

First for this contest I must be make the new antenna for 6 meters band. I can't guess I can make the points in contest.
Last year made points very low becuase I have a little time to operate. This year hope to make contact to many hams in many countries.

New Interface

I would like to make new interface for my station. This design is first step of controlling my station and must design for portable station. I have update new station every time.

Example recived SSTV

Check my station received SSTV (Slow Scan Television) on 2 meter. Only on Thailand Field Day Contest can received the picture but at the normal I have not heard Thai’s Ham transmitted SSTV. Now I study the digital mode.

Get fun on digital…..see on air.

Why don't take the better station?

This is a one for all in TFDC2010. I can not completed setting up new antenna. My plan must be set 7 elements 4 stacks before stating TFDC2010 but actually I do not set following my plan because I have a little time to do set up. So I must be continuous to complete set up my antenna

Thailand Field Day Contest 2010

In last weekend (Feb 6) I have been to challenge in the TFDC2010.I setup my station for class D again. Class D is contest in the home station and a transmitter is not over 5 watts. For this year I am feeling bad again because this weekend I have working until I can made the points in 6 hours. So many problems for this contested. Working day, I can not completed set up homebrew antenna 4 sets of 7 elements and the noise in somewhere over my station. So I must improve my station again.

For TFDC2010 has difference from last year. This year many Thai’s Ham was interested the contest more.

Improve my station again see next contest.
