Hi Stu, when i reset I get all the folders on my desktop event though I have shortcuts on my desktop and unzipped to their own folders.. Any ideas? Thank you. Tony.

Unfortunatly the MFJ is no longer available.

Hi Stu, great video. My question is once I have set, send and receive to NO, and then upload the adi file to LOTW, then once every thing is up on LOTW go and set sent to Yes, do I then leave it on YES moving forward with uploads on closing the program? Regards Brent G5TV

I bet you are a teacher - your videos are very easy to understand even for non native speakers. thanks and 73 de HB9ATU

I'm not great at math, but followed your formulas as closely as possible. Hopefully I used my calculator properly. Anyway, can you do a double check on my figures. My antenna is a yagi, triband Cushcraft A3S with 8dbi gain up 11 meters. (roof peak = 15.5' plus up 21' on a mast for 36.5 feet. I run 500 watts (sometimes) ssb or CW. RG213 coax 55' long. I came up with a min distance power density of 0.1062 @ 100w pep; 0.5311@500w pep; and for the future 1500w pep, 1.593 . . . I didn't figure all the other stuff you did for cable loss etc because I don't know how. N7BUD

Thanks for the video . Appreciate the effort but , the radio noise really takes away from yoru explanation. Hard to make it through the end.

Great job on the video thanks! I see they have a smaller discone too on their website.

TNX Stuart from Spain, I'm Manuel, EA2BDR and I finally managed to get my QSOs uploaded to LOTW. I'll follow your posts. Thanks for everything 73

Great Work as always

*but, can you install a flat screen tv to the wall. weld, rebuild a manual tranny, engine?* *no sir, me no like math (this type) i'll stick to "half of the half, of the half. eye balling it or getting zapped* *my motto has always been "next math geek i see and hear gets a knuckle sandwich* *had to troll you, friendly neighborhood troll here. i keep some formulas written down and saved on my device (photovoltaic/solar thermal technician here) Keep Up The Good Work and I'll Pass it On*

Great video sir.... im 52 years old.... since m'y young age i always asked m'y father or m'y grandfather for advice on everything !!!!!.... even at home depot no matter what that young kid tells me ..... ill turn around and find a grey hair customer and ask him!!!!.... your vidéo is the proof.... older guys no what the f#$% they are talking about!!!!.... honest and reliable!!!!.... you made me 100% sure of m'y next purchase... buy the way excuse me for any grammary error.... im a french guy from Québec Canada !!!!.... great vidéo buddy!!!!

I love it-welcome to what I teach in all of my Technician level classes! (and disturbingly, often have to teach in Amateur Extra classes also). Oh, another handy addition is 1dB, or a ~20.6% increase. Close enough to call it 20%. So if 40dBm=10W, 41dBm=48W. I wish the League's license manuals would spend more time on this method and less on the pure mathematics. de W6KME

I have two BF's GT-5R and a UV-K5 Plus. Basically only the GT is clean. The rest are all the same old board with just different stuff soldered to it. We should stop buying them till they make some more up to date boards. The difference is probably 0.02 cents of filtering.

I used a commercial TDR ($$$) at work. The double length bump is always there.

Thanks for doing these reports. I was very interested in this radio

Good to see you back and testing ham radios again, Stu! Keep 'em coming!

Great work Stu a real eye opener. Have you tested the Anytone 878UVIII HT. I am using one

I have FT710. My win4yaesu works with FT710 virtual coms 7 and 8 connecting to win4yeasu but UCXLOG and JTDX and FLDIGI programs don't want to communicate with tranceiver via win4yaesu.

Great video, Stu.

Amazing but I wish there was a guide for going from a larger drive (with only a small portion actually used), to a smaller drive!! I’m pulling my hair out!

Good scanner antenna dont bother with tx on it though

Well done. I had been using a different utility that won't boot anymore.

stop stupid music in into

My analog Kikusui boot up really fast compared to digital Rigol 1054z.

I just recently purchased this antenna and according to Jetstreams website it will transmit on 11 meters and 6 meters too.. If it will work on 11 meters then maybe it will work on 10 meters with a few tweaks.. Dave W5DMG

Color me confused but you said the crimp connector was spinning on the coax, then hacked off a standard solder Amphenol (new ones suck btw) to replace it with another crimp? If that wasn't the bad connector you cut off why cut it so close, you could've made a short jumper with it... But I digress.

tnx for your kindness

Stu, a setting in my Yaesu 991A changed, and I can no longer use Winlink P2P packet 1200. I suspect it may be the COM port selection in the settings for Soundmodem as to the modem. Under PTT, did you select the standard Silicon Labs COM port or the enhanced Silicon Labs COM port for use with the 991A? Thanks.

Hey Stu! Thank you! I have a question. My Vara Hf winlink works great, but when I use HF P2P the tones that are generated upon attempting to connect are barely audible and I have difficulty connecting. Tones when using an RMS are perfectly loud and clear. Any insight as to why the P2P tones would be so weak compared to RMS?

Thank you so much for the lesson - LOTW needs someone to write their instruction manual :)

I am giving my pc to a nephew. Will they have to have the windows key for windows to work? (without watermark)

added mine to the logs waiting for confirmations, added YBOX1 Satellite not sure if it will add it

Very useful for a new user like me. Thanks - Atanu, VU2ATN

stop whistling and shushing your "S"'s

The issue with all the boost units is will they cause RFI

Nice video. Covers the pertinent information and hits the gotchas, as well as exploring use just beyond simple person to person use. N1TEN SDG ARES

After being on the air coming up on 59 years in October and having been proud of my only earned "Rag Chewers Club" I am considering LoTW and Log4OM. Your videos have given me a success path and I thank you for the help!

Thanks Stu very helpful video. 73s

Great just what I needed best regards

Nice presentation which answered a few of my own question. What brand name and model is your 2m rig?

Thank you so much for sharing this video!

Good explanation of radio waves and antenna info. Thanks, AK6HP

Great video Stuart. This gives lots of ideas....

Just out of curiosity, could you just use standard coaxial cable for a tv and throw on pl-259 adapters at either end to use it as a UHF coaxial cable? I apologize if that's a silly question, but I'm new to this, so please humor me....

The center top long element is for 6 meters but will need adjustment probably In you video you did not show the SWR for all the other bands that its designed for 25 mhz to 1300 could you reply to my comment I am setting up a recieve system for any signal any band all rf digital or analog. You will get better transmit signal with colinear antenna but this saves you money. I'm a disabled USMC vet that can't work but tinkers all day with my radios 73 AA4CP Fort Pierce FL on the beach

Hi Stu, tnx for your light and refreshing way of presenting informations :-)

Thanks, I needed that. 73

I should add that i running this on a FTdx3000
