..good job...very nice..
Thanks Tim....It was a fun build. 73 de VK2AOE
Nice.
I am afraid I don't have electronic skills sufficient enough to build a switch myself without mucking up, hence, I ordered the $48 no-name switch off Bangood that was introduced several years ago.
I probably should have read the comments attached to Tech-Minds review of the device a year ago. Apparently there are insertion loss issues according to some. If believable they are significant....
Well, I only use Qrp HF, and have a RS 918 as my rig. Mostly I use my license to either simply listen or else experiment with radiation patterns and radio astronomy where a zero amount of contesting is in my set of interests. Hence, if it gives me a panadapter showing the entire 40 meter band & some ability to switch to transmit without mucking up my RSP-1A I will be satisified.
By the way, if your a Ukulele player too you should take a shot at building one from scratch. It is really quite addicting.....

I have to be honest. I haven’t officially done an insertion loss test on mine yet. I have compared signals with box and bypassing it, that seems ok…. but logarithmic loss etc being what it is … probably should test. I’m the same re contesting … prefer HOMEBREW and testing. Yes the luthier uke building would be cool but my wood work skills are bogus 😜😆🤣. I did build a kit and it turned out ok after some issues were surmounted

The Kenwood ATU to the right may look sexy, but the toolbox is red and therefore goes faster
Faster than my CW presently hi hi hi hi🤣
Great Switcher Box!!! Nice job!
Thanks…. Got me thinking about receive only antennas 73 de VK2AOE.
Not sure I'd be trusting the front ends of my receivers to those Ali Baba relays... Maybe swap them out for Japanese ones. You have an interesting and eclectic approach to radio! Love it! subscribed.
Livin on the edge! 🤡🥹😝😂. Thanks for the sub ! 73 de VK2AOE.
I wanna see the antennas!😊
The antennas are in this one from 2 mins in! 73 de VK2AOE

Do you mean a VHF or UHF REPEATER? Presently I only have HF…. The Baofeng died 💀! Maybe in future 73 de VK2AOE
