SUMMARY:Monthly Tech Session
DESCRIPTION:For this Tech Session\, John will be showing some simple DIY 2m/70cm dual band antennas that you can build easily and cheaply. \nThis will make either your new hand-held perform much better\, or plug into the back or your base station radio in the shack. \nThere are a number : \nOpposed  dipole\nColinear (made from RG-58)\nFlowerpot\nSlim Jim\nJPole \nWe will also be able to provide build details either by printed media or an Internet Link for the above antennas \nThere will also be a NanoVNA and an Antenna Analyser that we can use to have a look at the performance and VSWR. \nLook forward to seeing you there. \n

SUMMARY:Saturday Tech Session
DESCRIPTION:The May Saturday Tech Session will revisit programming the Quasnsheng UV-K5/6 Radios.  AHARS President John VK5RJ  will demonstrate how to do it using Chirp or the native Quansheng software\, and possibly even how to do a firmware upgrade on someone’s radio. \nJohn will also show how to use the Python modules with Chirp when working with the later firmware upgrades. This can be a bit daunting if you haven’t done it before. \nIf you have a Quansheng that needs programming\, bring it along and we can do it on the day!

SUMMARY:Saturday Tech Session
DESCRIPTION:The Tech Session for next Saturday will be on a couple of topics which are sure to be interesting: \n\nFirstly\, Paul VK5PH will be talking about Field Days\, and he will be giving tips on\nwhat where and how to do them. Should be good\, especially for all those newbies who have not been involved in such activities.\nSecondly\, led by Geoff\, VK5JB\, there will be a round table discussion on HF Antennas in the smaller suburban back yard. Hans VK5YX will be explaining how he does it by using a combination of a Vertical antenna to transmit\,  and listening on the Kiwi SDR at Ironstone Range for receiving.\n\nAs always\, there will be coffee and maybe a nibble or two.
