AJ4KI's Radio-Activities

Going on hiatus for a while

It pains me to do it, but I’m taking a hiatus from radio for a while. I recently received some news that is forcing a re-evaluation of my priorities. With luck, this too will pass and I will get on with my life and rejoin the radio community. Until then, I wish you excellent propagation and good DX.

Think EME is cool? Try EVE!

AMSAT-DL has succeeded in bouncing a 2.4 GHz signal off of Venus and receiving it back here on earth. That’s a 31 million mile path length! AMSAT-DL used this as a test to prove the radio techniques they will need for their planned P5-A amateur Mars satellite.

Starting Work on Field Day

I’m the assistant activities director for the Bullitt Amateur Radio Society. My position’s primary responsibility is planning and coordinating the club’s ARRL field day operations in June. Since it’s never too early to get started on a large logistical undertaking, I’ve begun the initial planning on a new Field Day page.

This is very much a work in progress. I’m looking forward to input from the club and interested others. I’ll keep updating the page as I go.

Getting Started

Hello and welcome! I’m just getting started here. Not much to see and even less to read at the moment. The plan is to document my operating activities and other interesting bits I find while operating my station.

My interests focus on EMCOMM and mobile operating. I still haven’t set up a fixed station at my QTH. I live on a small city lot with too many power lines running nearby. I’ll eventually get things sorted out though. Thanks for reading and check back soon.
