LMR400 Coax Jumper Cable with PL259 UHF Male Crimp Connectors. Episode 1 VK5SMO HAM Radio Series.
This is episode 1 of my HAM Amateur Radio Series. I purchased a magnetic mount antenna off of Ali-Express - an ANT-7900D...

..I was originally going to use this on my car but have decided to use as a base station antenna. In order to do this I've learned that I will need to create some form of 'ground plane' or add radials. Thus, I will need to test the antenna's SWR after I do this. Hence - video 1 - create a Jumper Cable for use with the SWR meter.
This is not a how-to. This is my journey. Any suggestions on why the SWR varied between the cable and non-cable tests would be appreciated. Cheers.

Caravan air filter DIY replacement. Dometic CAL 136 B3241 B3242 B3253 B3254 air filter replacement.
Переглядів 2 тис.3 роки тому
We purchased a 2004 Geist LV 535 caravan and I don't think the Dometic return air filters had ever been replaced. In fact, they disintegrated in my hands. After searching around I found the cost of replacement filters was quite expensive. So I purchased "Frost King" air filter material from Amazon for about $23 (inc delivery) and cut the fabric to size, replacing the filters myself for a fracti...

Ozito Cordless Chain & Blade Sharpener. Chainsaw chain sharpener. 3.6V Lithium Ion.
Переглядів 28 тис.4 роки тому
We purchased this chainsaw chain sharpener as I found the manual hand sharpeners to be somewhat cumbersome (or perhaps i'm just uncoordinated). Anyway, I reckon this little beauty worked a treat as can be seen by the final post sharpening test. Cheers, Steve. :-)
Giantz Post Hole Digger Petrol 92CC and Auger Kit. Ebay purchase. Unbox and initial test.
Переглядів 28 тис.4 роки тому
Purchased this GIANTZ gasoline ground auger off ebay recently. We will be using it to lay fence posts on our property. This is its unboxing and initial test. Works well in my parents sandy soil, not sure how it would go in clay soil. I'm sure it's powerful enough to run in clay soil - would just need a strong human to keep it still due to the torque produced. Anyway, I give this a big thumbs up...
RYOBI Chainsaw 38cc 2 stroke. Model RCS3845. 45cm Blade. Unboxing and initial Australian test.
Переглядів 5 тис.4 роки тому
We bought this RYOBI 4.4kg chainsaw from Bunnings for $229 to assist in clearing a bush block we've purchased. The block is full of tea tree. A number of retailers have advised that tea tree is quite hard and can blunt blades quickly. So, we thought why not test her out on my parents block which also has plenty of tea tree. We were pleasantly surprised by the results. We were on a budget and co...
BRAUN Series 5 Shaver Model 5190cc with Clean&Charge System - Unbox and Test.
Переглядів 34 тис.4 роки тому
Braun series 5 shaver. Model 5190cc clean and charge system. Unboxing and first test. In summary I found the shaver head performed exceptionally well. The trimmer full filled its purpose and removed my beard. However, I bench marked the trimmer against my WAHL trimmer and as expected it did not perform as well or feel as comfortable. However, as a men's grooming product I would most certainly r...
Bidet Spray Bum Gun Australian Installation.

Last time we were back in Chiang Mai we picked up a bidet spray / bidet shower / health faucet / bum gun. Call it what you may, after explaining to customs what it was we finally made it home and installed it. I originally hated using these things but now I don't feel clean without them! Go figure? Anyway, there easy peasy to install - check it out.
Street Triple R 2013 Radiator Cowl GoPro Mount. Home Made.
Переглядів 6198 років тому
I'd had enough of having my head ripped off when the GoPro was on the top of my helmet. I love the footage other riders have taken with the GoPro down near the front side of the bike. And thus, my home made GoPro mount was born. Stay tuned for footage of iconic Sydney rides. Cheers, Steve.

Hi All. Fellow UA-camr Roxic12 was kind enough to send me her blue rear seat cowl. I've had a crack at respraying her and reckon she looks not too bad for a rattle can, first time effort. Feel free to share any advice though.

Hi Guys. I've been lucky enough to pick up one of these new entry level GoPro Heroes. And, I tell you what, I am stoked! I wanted an action camera that would deliver decent quality daylight results. I needed something much clearer and sharper than the Target action camera I was "training with". I didn't need all of the extra "bells and whistles" the pricier models provided, I just wanted decent...
