One of my favorite ham radio web sites was 100 pound DXpedition, a look at what it takes to organize and execute a light weight DXpedition. Unfortunately, Scott, NE1RD, decided he had written all he needed to write about the subject for his blog back in November, 2007.
But he hasn’t stopped writing.
Scott’s latest foray is to take all of the experience from his DXpeditions and write about the antennas used and tested. He’s initially published this report on the web. But, it also looks like he’s going to be publishing it in a couple of different formats, available for download as well.
The most encouraging sign: this is volume ONE.
Can’t wait for the rest.
Scot, K9JY
