Selamat Berpuasa dan Kemerdekaan ke-52

Salam untuk semua rakan..Menjelang bulan baik dan mulia ni, kita seharusnya bersyukur kerana masih lagi dipanjangkan umur untuk merasai nikmat berpuasa bagi tahun ni..Alhamdulillah..Seronok melihat kemeriahan di bulan puasa samada pada waktu malam maupun siang hari terutamanya di pasar ramadhan..hahahah..mungkin sesetengah kita masih teringat bagaimana meriahnya masa kita kecil apabila tibanya waktu berbuka..Segala makanan yang dibeli sewaktu di pasar seakan-akan ingin ditelan sekali gus..Tapi..bila minum je air 2 gelas...semua makanan tolak tepi..ni bukan budak2 je yang alami..sindrom ni aku rasa akan menyerang xkira siapa..kanak2 mahupun dewasa.Janji ikut spesifikasi yang ada iaitu "lapar mata". Bulan ni jugak aku rasa beruntung kerana bulan Kemerdekaan turut jatuh pada bulan Ramadhan. Semoga Malaysia terus maju dan cemerlang. Cuma kadang kala aku terfikir apa maksud kemerdekaan bagi setiap rakyat Malaysia. Setiap kali malam merdeka pasti akan ada situasi seperti undang-undang jalan raya seperti tidak wujud pada pandangan remaja. Mereka akan memecut dan melakukan pelbagai aksi2 yang mengerikan dan ku kira amat BODOH..Malam merdeka yang lalu aku bersama rakan-rakan ham Melaka di Restoran K5 di Semabok, Melaka. Situasi yang sama turut berlaku menyebabkan ketidak selesaan dalam kalangan pelanggan restoran dan kami..Apa pun sama-sama lah kita mendoakan agar generasi pewaris akan datang tidak akan menjadikan gejala ini sebagai sebuah gejala baru yang harus dialami oleh setiap remaja. Akhir kalam selamat menjalani ibadah puasa dan selamat menyambut hari Kemerdekaan yang ke-52, semoga tanah tumpah darah tercinta ini akan terus maju dan maju..Merdeka, merdeka, merdeka!73

My 9 Elements Yagi Homebrew Project

Hi again..Today i'm quite free and would like to share with those reader who visit this 'funny' blog. My latest homebrew project is 9 elements Yagi. So far i still do not test the performance of that antenna because of time constrain and no suitable pole to erect the antenna. However based on the SWR ratio that i have checked, the performance was so good at 145-148 Mhz..The length of the antenna is quite long.


In the process...9 Element Yagi

Still in progress..




Done...9 element Yagi
The boom is about 3.5 meter. A bit long and need more free space to erect the antenna. I wish to put on 20 feets pole and raise it from ground level. This is because as we know the nature of Yagi is directional. So without any rotators i have to swing it around to find the most strong signal. Those who interested to check for the diagram may browse it to http://users.belgacom.net/hamradio/homebrew.htm. They provide a variety of diagram to those who happy in homebrew..Cheers 73

V24 Close Up

On the tip of 20 feet pole on my base station roof.

My antenna base station

My antenna base station:
Brand: Antenna Silver V-Two 4 Special
Radiation: Omnidirectional
Frequency range: 142-148 Mhz
VSWR: 1:1.5 max
Maximum Power: 200 Watts
db: 9dB, 11.1 dBi
Length: 18 feets

v24 Special Review
My homebeli antenna base station. So far the performance is quite good. I do simplex with 9W2TGA bang Rosli Manjung on v32 with full blast of power output. My transceiver is icom ic v8000. I can listen to 9w2tga in r4 with busy mood. Just for 3-4 over then the propagation was closed. Another dx contact station is JZ04BDP Bang Power from pekan baru indonesia..He can received me well (r5 s3) with 25 watt power output. The most far dx station i think is YD6STO handle Sutikno from Sumatera Utara, Indonesia. I do not know performance of other antenna, but my colleagues always suggest me to use diamond x510. So far i do really satisfied with this v24 special performance. Those who wanna try may contact 9w2tga. The price is quite cheap compared to another antenna since the performance is quite good too. With RM280 you may own one. My intention is more on dxing and try to contact with another station who stay really really far away from my base station. By using this antenna, Kuala Lumpur is very near to me. As low as 5 or 10 watts i may contact with 9w2uaw Bang Nuar in Cheras. The dB is quite high compared to another antenna. Normally we may have this number of dB by using Yagi antenna with certain element. However it depends on you guys..Tepuk wallet tanya selera nak antenna mana...hehehehe..73

Here we come..."CW MINI MARKET" dah di dah dit...

Salam again..Hi all..Those who wanna learn or train CW, please do come to this market..Hahaha..Just kidding..The mini market is just nearby to my base station. At first sight when i look at the signboard of the shop i was wondering where did the CW's name come from. So when i approached the owner without asking anything, then i know the answer. The owner is Chinese..So you also know guys...73
