Bought some stuff from SM2GCR

We went two trips down to SM2GCR to pick up some things that he sold us. First trip it was me, SM2XJP and SM2XLL and the second trip me and SM2UVU went down there. We got some stuff that will be useful in future projects.

Another K-600 adventure

This weekend was spent at SM2GCR QTH taking down a tower that SA5BJM had bought. This is a video me and SG3P (SK3W) filmed and I edited. We are speaking Swedish but it might be fun to watch anyway.

Safety stop #1

I forgot to post this update on the website. Me and SM2XJP installed the safety stop on the military tower. It’s not the best solution but it should work just fine. If for some reason the tower starts to rotate when it shouldn’t it will unplug itself. I saw this solution first on a multi-million dollar installation of a parabolic dish used for research and thought it was a neat solution.

More work at the station

Here is an update from earlier when SM3JLA was helping me. This weekend I am at the work QTH but I will go down to SJ2W tomrrow and start to prepare for CQWW SSB next weekend.
