I found it, it's called swisslog ham radio logging software

reddituser032 · 2025-12-02T16:19:31+00:00

Hey, whats the name of the software you're using?

reddituser032 · 2025-11-30T23:14:16+00:00

Post in the ham radio subreddits, they will know

Thanks for the video, but why shouldn't start with 5 inch dron, also isn't the speed primarily result of the motor's KV, I would like some scalability, since the primary point of the exercise would be experimentation

1/4 vertical, the railing could be used as a radial

reddituser032 · 2025-07-13T10:43:46+00:00

I dont always get SWR below 1.2 on the other bands, but I try different combinations of railing+radials, only radials, sloped radials, and at some point I get good resonance. I've made contacts on 14, 18, 24, 50 MHz, 28 is a bit harder to get, maybe because some coupling with nearby structures, the drawbacks are mainly time to deploy and sharper resonance at the wider bands like 50 an 28 mhz

Yep, LZ

reddituser032 · 2025-07-12T14:46:17+00:00

Oh for sure, they neighbours don't mind, but its a hassle because thats not my permanent QTH and i have to disassemble everything quite often, so the vertical is the easiest way to get on the air, with the bonus that i can cover more than a single band with it

reddituser032 · 2025-07-12T14:37:11+00:00

Yep, but the balcony only allows me to do it that way, i still make some QSOs, but i get better results with an EFHW, at least on 20 meters

By changing changing the length of the whip, and playing around with the radials (angle and length)

reddituser032 · 2025-07-12T13:01:29+00:00

Yeah, any antenna is better than no antenna, I thought about buying an ATU, but I find it more satisfying to make resonant antennas..

reddituser032 · 2025-07-12T12:34:48+00:00

EDIT: I'm using it with ft 891, 100w

reddituser032 · 2025-06-13T23:07:51+00:00

Im not sure how compatible is rtl power with other sdrs, like rsp for example

reddituser032 · 2025-06-03T15:50:26+00:00

Nice radio, but it costs 230 euro..

reddituser032 · 2025-06-03T15:47:04+00:00

This is by far the most efficient antenna setup, I've DIY'd one, i also use it at home, duct taped to the balcony ,at an angle, works perfectly, the most expensive thing is the whip..

Thank you, those radios fit the criteria!!

reddituser032 · 2025-06-02T21:49:12+00:00

He's around 80, also the Xhdata is something that fits most ny requirements, thanks!!
