How to drop the tower back down if the wind is blowing in the wrong direction..? Woops!! https://youtu.be/BYuIEu9KOrE - Yagi Project - Full Build Last time out, we had a successful first lift and have had it guyed and upright for a week before fitting the control cables for the rotator. Before that, we broke the Create Rotator. We fished out the Yaesu G-450 and did a successful "launch"...

BIG UPDATE! Amazing. These are Band-Pass filters. Mandatory for any 2-Station ham shack. Or Two Radio / Two Radio setup. Ideal for this weekend when Jonathan and I will be running on both 40m and 20m bands (for instance). See what you think! ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sXJNeaQe1xs

Pushing the limits of the Yaesu control cable length and mechanical strength.

Last year, Django (my dog) ran into one of the guy lines and managed to destroy my freshly built and newly designed trib-band vertical which was on an 18m / 60-ft pole. I am trying to rebuild it on a 12.4m telescopic pole. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dMB6l6kByEg

Last time out, we broke the Create Rotator. We fished out the Yaesu G-450 and we're going to try again - this time with the whole 13m (42.5-ft) and a 6:1 pulley. Wish me luck! ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zSgjOi8E5LY

It went wrong. Can we fix it? This is a 12m tower project for an HF Yagi / Quad etc. long story.. *BUT* the guys are dual-use as both a 40m 4-Square switchable antenna array - as well as the tower. So there will be 4 vertical antennas coming off each guy point. Accuracy is mandatory for both the 4-square (impedance matching and gain etc) and you'll see shortly in another video why they need t...

I drilled out the scaffold guys for the eye bolts, fitted the rotator, fitted the falling derrick system and the first scaffold tube to deliver the first piece of the tower. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O_pQN0pMvmA

I run a LOT of toys on my shack PC and because I live-stream the screen, lots of folks want a full explanation of my current setup. This is it. Enjoy and be inspired! ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mr-Eo7l2YIw

It is rare that a modern aircraft can get lost, although there are plenty of reports of small light aircraft and private planes having a panic. To the rescue comes the VOR (Very High Frequency Omnidirectional Range) which is key navigation system used by aircraft worldwide, although somewhat supersceded these days by GPS. VOR transmits radio signals that help pilots determine their exact direction...

Just faffing about - feel free to join me... ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YUgmdRPv0Pc

I am co-locating the guys for the 40-ft / 12m mast with the 4-Square on 40m. Some careful measuring and lots of muscle was required. QUAD: This is a multiband antenna that ideally needs independant feeders for each band and a rotator. I have a mast-head remote switcher for this. Similarly, I need control lines for the 4-Square. More details about the 4-Square antenna in a later video. Have fun. En...

How many times do I have to fix this before I realise I need to replace the whole thing? Spoiler: PL259 failure ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HHGgdeNvRaM
