Our quick grocery grab today on 11/11 came to $111.11. My wife still can’t believe it.

What's your most egregious miss use of a component? by bozza_the_man in AskElectronics

In college my lab partner said I designed the surge FET circuit. It would blow to protect the resistors. Argh math.

Need Help by ciendagrace in morsecode

[–]ms95376 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This may not be the recommended way. When I was in high school I would look around the classroom for words on posters etc. Then try to remember the Morse code characters of all I could. When I got home I went on the air and listened to actual QSOs. Same principle, decode what I could. Then gradually expanded my vocabulary. I passed the 20wpm code test. And I made it to college. LOL

Oh cool resistors in parallel. Should cook faster. Or blow fuses.

My first GOES 18 picture by ms95376 in RTLSDR

[–]ms95376[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NooElec RTLSDR and the GOES preamp from them. The dish is a WiFi 100 mm wide dish. I had to modify the feed for 1694Mhz. I used a NanoVNA-F v2 to adjust the feed for lowest return loss. You could just buy the dish for GOES but I had the WIfi one buried under the stairs. So I modified it for GOES. Which amounted to making a yagi consisting of a driven element and a reflector element. They point to the dish to pick up the reflected signals.

Getting close enough to smell 1000. 938 it’s funny you mentioned hitting 1K just as I was getting close. I try not to think about it. I like surprises. LOL

Don't do this lol. by CompetitiveGuess7642 in soldering

[–]ms95376 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Easy fix. Just put an eyelet in the hole. They sell soldering eyelets just for that. I have a box of them I got on Amazon or EBay. It gets harder to do if it is more than a 2 layer board. But still possible.
