In this bumper edition you will find the exciting news of the Long Mynd receiver project - now you can plug your MiniTiouner hardware in to your Portsdown Raspberrry PI and you've got a one box DATV transceiver solution!
If you have blown up the inductors on your Serit tuner you will be interested in G4KLB's RT5047 project which provides current limiting for the LNA outputs and Jim G7NTG describes his 2.4GHz 250 watt PA for Oscar100. There's the June IARU contest results and good news about the 144 MHz band but a more worrying update on 23cms.
And finally to celebrate 70 years of BATC, Turning Back The Pages has a fascinating history of CQ-TV starting at issue 1 - and don't forget all the back issues are available on the BATC website. https://batc.org.uk/cq-tv/cq-tv-archive/
In response to requests from our members the copy available for download from the webpage is a high resolution version at approximately 28Mb. If due to limited broadband speed, you need a smaller, lower resolution version, send an email to admin@batc.tv and we will send you a link to a 5Mb version.
The printed version of CQ-TV 265, in full colour on high quality gloss paper, will be dispatched by Friday October 4th to those members who subscribe to the printed magazine. If you currently don't receive the printed version, why not consider upgrading when you next renew your subscription.
We hope you enjoy this high quality, packed issue of CQ-TV and we really, really ,really would love to have some feedback from you - a lot of effort goes in to producing it and it sometimes feels we push it off out in to the ether and never know what you think about it - or if you even got it!
