Monthly Archives: May 2015. A friend of mine (and the president of our radio club. N4ESS, heard I was interested in CW. Being mainly a CW guy himself, he stopped over at the house one afternoon and brought me some equipment. One of the things he had with him was a beat up hamfest-special, Speedex straight key.

Tag Archives: Google Drive. Using Google Drive for RAW backups. The benefit though is that with Unlimited you get 1TB of Drive storage, vs. the 32GB I already had. Seemed like a good deal to me! No file type limits, and I wouldn’t have another bill or account to manage. For non-apps users, you can do the same thing with a normal (free) Google account, by upgrading your storage limit here. Same pricing applies, $10/month for 1TB of storage. This entry was posted in Photography. And tagged .DNG.

There are certain contests that requir...

Our club president, N4ESS, demonstrates a novel new antenna system. In convenient roll packaging. And it actually worked! This entry was posted in Radio. October 6, 2015.
