RFI hunt for the club Field Day setup was a success! Keep your choke at the rig. 💫 #VE5MA 🫎

Hamvention was back in May, but the love for ham radio never signs off.
Still thinking about the Icom ID-5200 making its debut in Dayton. Ham Radio Prep @HamPrep hands-on with it, and their video title says it all: built-in TNC + APRS?!
The quick rundown:
• 4.3" color touchscreen
• 50W on 2m/70cm with true simultaneous dual receive (FM/FM, FM/DV, DV/DV)
• Built-in Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and GPS
• KISS TNC mode for APRS, with full APRS on the way via firmware update
• Airband receive, including UHF 225–400 MHz
Worth a watch if you've got a D-STAR itch to scratch: loom.ly/8rQGP44
73!

Stepping back into the early '90s golden era of HF radio! ✨
🔀 @f1mij @pj4ish @ki5uev
Behold the legendary Kenwood TS-950SDX — introduced in 1992 as the ultimate flagship rig built for serious DX hunters and contesters.
From its adjustable 20–150W RF power (SSB/CW/FSK/FM) driven by MRF150MP MOSFET final transistors to that iconic analog-meets-early-DSP architecture, this heavyweight champion still commands ultimate respect today.
Who remembers the fierce radio wars back then? Team Kenwood (TS-950SDX) vs. Team Icom (IC-775DSP), while the Yaesu FT-1000D crew also made some serious noise! 😄
Drop a comment below if you used to spend hours tweaking your audio settings on one of these masterpieces.

The coronal hole on the Sun has grown and will soon hit Earth with it's high-speed stream of solar wind. High-magnitude (M6.8+) earthquake watch is in effect for the duration of the #spaceweather impact plus a day or two afterwards. Earth November is looking especially critical...
Very true - and the more inexpensive it is the more likely this happens
Manufacturers love hiding screws behind confusing panels. When the device is already broken, you have nothing to lose by opening it up. At least some companies keep their hardware standardized.
