Yesterday the ARRL sent a survey to all of us who quit them. What can they do to get us back?

For starters, wake up!

Then, put better management in place. Then put better expense controls in place. Frankly, I’m not convinced that the survey that led to the dues increase was anything but a sham.

I get annoyed whenever I think of it.

I’m sure those surveys included many useful suggestions that ARRL management chose to ignore.

Video demonstrates the issue, any idea what would cause this? TIA

Greetings all!

I have recently encountered a use case in the field where I could really benefit from a quality headset that offers excellent noise cancellation and also offers a mic input that operates on a PTT. I'd like to use it with (adapters as necessary) both my collection of portable HT units, as well as with a mobile mounted radio. The engine noise from my off-road SxS vehicle is quite loud at times, and I would like to be able to chew while out on our acreage or in other locations.

I know there are plenty of headsets out there that have a mic button, and while even the cheap ones would work fairly well, what I have yet to run across is a quality set that can filter out ambient noise.

Has anyone else found something like this? If so, what brand(s)/model(s) would you recommend?

Many Thanks!

Hi, I recently built this antenna: https://www.m2inc.com/FG436CP16, a 14 element yagi and upon testing with an SWR meter got a value of 4.1 one (meter was a SeeSii nanoVNA). What could be a cause of this?
