Wires-X Node for Dagenham

 I have purchased an HRI-200 Interface to launch a node/Gateway for Dagenham, it sits at 433.6375 MHz.

I wanted to do this for so long and now it's happened. Thing is, there are no Digital repeaters around this way, whether it's Fusion, DMR or DStar. There is a repeater in Romford (Harold Hill) but you need to take out all three radio's with you because it could be any of those three modes. My one is Fusion only, so from the outset you know what it is and it's listed on the likes of UK Repeaters and Repeater book.

I am in the middle of creating a website for the Gateway, it will only be a couple of pages but hopefull give much information

 Welcome to 2022 from me 2E0IPK, let's hope it's a happy and safe one for all. So here we are with my second blog, still cannot quite get my head around this at present but hey ho I'll have a go (hey that rhymes).  So sunspots are starting to become a regular thing now and that's pushing up Solar Flux, the very thing we need for exceptional propagation. The SN and SFI at this specific moment in time are SN 38, SFI 99, but they are predicted to rise further this week so all is looking good. No matter where you live Get on the air on HF Bands and make a colossal effort, after all if people are calling and nobody answers people will find other ways to communicate and that's not good for HF that way. Take care all, another blog next month

27th Feb Update

 Hi folks, Well been a busy week working on my websites, and last Thursday (24th February 2022) I had a meeting with the deputy headteacher of a nearby school as we work on an ISS Contact. It's been a long time in the making too, I took it to the school a couple of years ago, then it all stopped because the teacher that was dealing with it left to work abroad, so we started over, then Covid stopped it once again. So here we are, Post teacher leaving, Post Covid, now hopefully we can move on, it certainly would be nice to get the application in sometime soon after all that has preceded up until now. I also intend to work on two radio video's showing the Yaesu FT 70DE and the Wouxun KG-UV8G the 2m and 4m handheld, so lots going on just getting the time to do them is another matter. So did you manage to work the ISS SSTV stream in December?  It was a great pass over London and I managed to get the image below, I must admit I was surprised to get such a good image considering I onl

 20M End Fed Half Wave antenna now up and running and working really well, I never thought it would actually fit in my garden, but it does, "Just". If you look on my contact page  Contact (ipklondon.uk)  you will see my latest contacts at the bottom of the page, all of these were made using this antenna, there are 40M, 20M, 15M and 10M contacts at differing times of the day. The antenna still isn't in its permanent position but it's getting there, rather than using a tree as I am doing at present, I intend to purchase another pole at some point. So, the RSGB Convention is now over and I must admit from what I saw online it looks to have been a success, I like this hybrid idea, I wasn't able to attend the event this year, but I did get the chance to see a couple of presentations and also worked the live station outside of the main entrance.
