INTERFERENCE:
The
precious radio spectrum from 2 MHz to 330 MHz is under threat from
Power Line Network adapters - PLT / PLA - supplied by, among others,
BT, BT Vision, Comtrend, and Belkin etc. These devices are not
compliant with the
Wireless Telegraphy Act - yet the UK's inept and useless radio spectrum
'regulator' fails to act. Ofcom's incompetence and willful neglect must
be challenged. Please Donate to the Spectrum Defence Fund:

ANTENNAS
If you're
building antennas you're bound to require some good knots:
ANIMATED
KNOTS - It's
important to use the correct knot for the job. The Bowline I find most
useful for fixing end, egg and dog-bone insulators to the ends of the
wire and/or ropes. The Round Turn & Two Hitches, Anchor Bend
and
Buntline Hitch knots are very good for tying a rope to a pole or a
mast. 'Animated Knots' will show you how to do them: http://www.animatedknots.com

BRATS - Amateur Radio Training for all UK
licence levels - this site is no longer being updated (summer 2009) so
the minor syllabus changes made in June 2009 will not be included.
Never the less the vast majority of the information provided on this
site is an invaluable learning resource: http://www.the-brats.net/

These are excellent on-line tutorials that
were designed to help students pass the RSGB exams for the Foundation
Licence, Intermediate Licence and finally the Advanced Licence. It
should be noted that the RSGB made some minor syllabus changes in 2009
which were not reflected in the BRATS courses because the author had
retired from this duty. This does not make any of the basic information
out of date or less useful, it's just that the course material may not
quite mesh with the new RSGB syllabus.
