When you asked Hannah what she thought when she saw the broom, I thought she would say either, “chores” or “quiditch.” lol You have a lovely young girl who I am sure is inspired by all that you do. I hope to be blessed with a little me someday to teach about the world and watch grow. I loved the music. Question for you- is there a reason why someone would prefer to make a quarter wavelength antenna vs half, or full. I’m really trying to understand this question and answer and hope you may clarify.

Hello, ⚠️! The information mentioned in this video corresponds to a standard battery charging operation made of lithium Iron Phosphate. The optimal charge of a portable lithium Iron Phosphate LifePO4 battery is much more "complex" and requires a "BMS" device integrated inside the lithium Iron Phosphate LifePO4 battery. Using this internal "BMS" device installed by the manufacturer, you can for example charge a 100Ah/140Ah/200Ah battery etc. using a 40A/50A STABILIZED SWITCHING POWER SUPPLY (stabilized power supply used in radiocommunication, totally different from a stabilized linear laboratory power supply!). I myself charged my 140Ah (39% capacité remainig)) lithium Iron Phosphate LifePO4 battery with a 40A DIAMOND ANTENA stabilized switching power supply (14,6v) My Lithium Iron Phosphate LifePO4 battery was fully charged after about 2 hours. During the charging cycles, the Lithium Iron Phosphate LifePO4 battery repeatedly drew 40A. During the charging process, the "BMS" device regulated the amperage levels that fluctuated between 10A and 40A. Please note that the first charging cycle lasted about 5 minutes with a constant absorption rate of 40A! (VERY IMPORTANT!!) WHEN THEY ARE MANUFACTURED, LITHIUM IRON PHOSPHATE LIFEPO4 BATTERIES 100Ah and above ARE CHARGED AT AMPERATURE LEVELS AROUND 90A! Conclusion: to obtain an optimal charge and discharge of a lithium Iron Phosphate LifePO4 battery, A HIGH AND CONSTANT AMPERAGE LEVEL IS REQUIRED SO THAT THE "BMS" DEVICE CAN CARRY OUT THE MOST EFFICIENT AND OPTIMAL CHARGE OF THE ELEMENTS (BALANCING/CYCLING/ABSORPTION...) Sincerely

There are some differences in menus since you've done this video. It's either that or one of us has a fake unit. (I got mine from 1 of the 2 allegedly legitimate sources on Amazon)

When you use the tune function or check the SWR the radio defaults to a low power CW signal. That is why you don't find a difference between RTTY and SSB when you tune. You also don't have to reduce power because the radio does it anyway. Great videoand very helpful for people that are new to the hobby.

I had my 7300 for a week and a half and got the portable antenna this Monday so just listening and getting advice, some nets sound echo-y so don’t know if my set is not quite right or does everyone hear the echo-y voice? I’ll discuss it with the club tomorrow.

For my UHF radio, I restrict it to 5W so I use a Dometic fridge adaptor which has a cigarette lighter socket. I can provide 6A or 72W, not sure about RF noise as a fridge doesn’t care. I also have a linear power supply but it is a big heavy bastard. I bought it in 2000 bud never used it much, it doesn’t (apparently) have capacitor disease. I would like to put a cigarette lighter plug on my Icom 7300 (for DXing) but the wires are too thick to connect to the plug. I might just use banana plugs to join it knowing I won’t exceed about 20W.

getting a 7300 tomorrow, does the update include past updates, or do you have to install older updates first? Presumably the new radio will be up to date but I’ll check anyway.
