Subject: Converter?
To: info-hams@ucsd.edu

 Would it be possible to build a _simple_ converter, located between
antenna and receiver, which would convert incoming FM (with 18-20kHz
deviation) to WFM (75kHz deviation)? It should cover frequencies
from 137 to 138MHz. It's just that the signals from the NOAA
satellites are so weak that I can't get any useful pictures with
signals received in WFM mode. ( to me the sound isn't that noisy,
go and figure)

I'm looking for ICs or suggestions on how to generate and decode
subaudible tones (CTCSS) for amateur radio. Any help would be
appreciated. It is part of my senior project which involves
building a computer controlled 2M transceiver.  Thanks.

This is a matter of personal taste for many of us.  I really prefer the
narrower, my favorite filter is the Kenwood 270 Hz filter in the TS 430.
The 500 Hz filter is fine, though, especially with IF shift or PBT
(though there is a difference in PBT and IF shift that seems to make PBT
much preferable :-).  The filter can do two things for you :

1.  Eliminate QRM nearby
2.  Quiet down the background noise.

Reference number 2, some filters don't do so well at this, and some narrow
filters have a "ring", or hollow sound to them.  Many don't like this at 
all.  Most IF filters don't have much ring, though some, many audio filters
(except DSP I understand) can ring pretty badly.

My two cents.

SYNOPSIS OF ACTIVITY
--------------------

             Solar activity was low.  Region 7654 (N08E46) remains the
       most active region on the disk.  Five optically uncorrelated
       C-class flares were observed this period, most likely
       originating from this region.  Magnetic inversion line analysis
       indicates 7654 has developed a beta-gamma-delta configuration
       while maintaining its overall size and shape. Region 7656
       (S22W08) was numbered this period as an AXX spot group.  All
       other regions quiet and stable.

            Solar activity forecast:  solar activity is expected to be
       low.  Region 7654 is forecast to continue producing C-class,
       and possibly M-class activity.

       STD: The National Solar Observatory has confirmed that
       Region 7654 is associated with extremely intense Ca XV
       emissions.  Intense emissions were observed on 16 and 17
       January.  These emissions reduced to moderate levels today.
       The group has been relatively quiet over the last 24 hours, but
       remains capable of producing potentially strong activity.

            The geomagnetic field has been at mostly unsettled levels
       with some minor storming experienced from 18/14Z-17Z at
       middle latitudes.  Levels have been quiet to unsettled
       since.  High latitudes were at mostly unsettled to active
       levels with some major to severe storm levels recorded from
       18/14Z-17Z.  Levels have calmed down to mostly unsettled to
       active since.

            Geophysical activity forecast:  the geomagnetic field is
       expected to be mostly unsettled at middle latitudes with
       unsettled to active levels expected at higher latitudes.

                        Major-Severe Storm    05/01/05

            HF propagation conditions were again near-normal over the
       low and middle latitudes today, and below-normal to near-normal
       over the high and polar latitudes.  High and polar latitude
       paths (particularly night-sector transauroral circuits)
       observed additional periods of minor signal degradation.  No
       changes are expected.  Middle and low latitude paths should
       continue to see near-normal propagation, while high and polar
       latitude paths are expected to see periods of minor signal
       degradation during night-sector signal transits.  There remains
       a moderate risk for potentially strong SWF activity on daylit
       circuits.

Subject: Expanded receive mod for Yaesu FT-41R
To: info-hams@ucsd.edu

I and a friend each just got a Yaesu FT-41R HT.

I called Yaesu and asked for any available mods.  They have an expanded
Rx/Tx mod which they won't give out without proof of MARS/CAP
authorization.  They did tell me about a keypad mod for getting just the
expanded receive.  You just hold down both the up and down arrow keys
while powering the unit on.

Now it accepts frequencies from 420-470 MHz instead of its normal limits
of 430-450.  It still only transmits on 430-450.  It also now requires
the 100MHz digit to be entered when a frequency is directly entered.  I
don't know why this is since it doesn't seem to accept any frequencies
that don't start with "4".  Does anyone have any explanation for this?

Does anyone know of any other mods for the FT-41R?  I heard that some
Yaesu 70cm HTs can pick up the 800MHz range; can the FT-41R be modified
to do this?

    Thanks,

You're absolutely right howie.  
One is well thought out and designed, and the kits are meticulously assembled
to ensure the components are correct (NorCal).  The other is quickly thrown
together to make a profit (Ramsey).  My hats off to N6KR (designer) and
WA6GER (assembler).  I can't wait for the new 5 band QRP rig that the
Northern California QRP club it putting together.

AMATEUR RADIO EXAMINATION OPPORTUNITIES 



*****************************************************************

Special Note: Amateur Radio licenses usually arrive between 8 and
    10 weeks after the test session.  The FCC considers their 
    processing time to be 90 days--from the date they receive the
    application.  The FCC usually receives the application one
    to two weeks after the test session (once the VE Team and the 
    coordinating VEC have completed their processing).


Note: Codeless Technician to Technician w/HF upgraders (who pass a 
    Morse code test) will not receive a new license from the FCC.  
    The existing Technician license plus the CSCE conveying the Morse
    code test credit is the only documentation issued for use of

The following paragraph appeared in an article in today's San Francisco
Chronicle about what local companies are doing to help prepare for the next
earthquake:

   Finally, in an attempt to encourage the use of amateur (Ham) radios, 
   which are used by many relief agencies during an emergency, Pacific 
   Bell has reduced the cost of operating a Ham radio to the basic 
   service rate of $8.35 a month.  Ham radios are licensed through the 
   phone company. 

I called PacBel to ask about this.  They didn't have any idea.  They
realize that they don't license amateur radios, and they also don't rent
any kind of amateur equipment.  I thought they might be referring to a
special rate for phone patches, but they denied knowing anything about that
either. 

Any ideas?  Do other phone companies do anything to encourage amateur
radio?
