| VHF/UHF Antennas you can build for $15-$20 or less...Will correct the one error in the page soon when I remember what it is. Also look at Kent Britain's own site as he now has (original source) info there on these nifty, well trade-off designed antennas. | Kent Britian, WA5VJB's "Cheap Rover Yagis" |

| SDR-Cube. Neat little Software defined radio that actually works because latency is controlled well | SDR-CUBE |
| Small Wonder Labs PSK-20 -- Neat PSK-31 Rig (GREAT "New" Digital Mode) -- Built it and it works like a charm | Small Wonder Labs |
| NJ QRP Club PSK-80 "Warbler" -- Neat PSK-31 Rig -- simpler than the PSK-20 | NJ PSK-80 rig |
| Microwave equipment for roving.. have several of his units from several generations... 902 (old), 1296 (old), 2304, 3456, 10368 MHz: | Down East Microwave |
| 1296-Equipment: Antennas: Double-Quad Antenna. I am always interested in experimenting with odd (non-yagi) antennas. This antenna is supposed to be a broadband 8.5 dbd antenna. I've built a small one out of nothing but 12 gauge wire and feedline. Later I'll test it on a network analyser and on the range next year at the CSVHF Conference. | Double-Quad Antenna |
