Looks like the last post is a year old. Are there any hams/amateur radio operators here on lemmy? If so, what projects (if any) are you working on? I'm building a 5 element yagi for 2m.

I got a trusdx a week ago. Going to make an efhw antenna for it today using a k6ark kit. So far looks like a great little radio. If you just want to receive then you only need a 5V supply.

Just finished a dual band pi-star build using a raspberry pi. First time really getting into any of the digital modes. Have it set up with D-Star, DMR, and YSF.

I am! I just moved over from reddit a few days ago.

I'm not working on any projects at the moment but just got a new rig and am obsessed. I'm going to go on another POTA activation this weekend if the weather permits.

I joined Lemmy recently. I have my amateur license but have not had time to play in a long time. I wanted to get back into it soon.

My recent project has been putting my QDX on the air using my Steamdeck for Parks on the Air. Here's version 1.0: https://todon.eu/@Chicory/109253278031948863

I have been gradually refining the station. Once it gets cold again I am going to work on restoring a Heathkit HW-9 QRP CW rig. And perhaps building a QMX.

I built a qdx a while back but haven't even gotten it on the air yet. I need to figure out 9v supply for it.

The QMX is out now, but I'm making myself use the last one I built before I build another... But part of me likes putting the stuff together more than actual using it.
