Happy 4th of July. How to solve the Supreme Court Problem!

[Karma is a bitch. Now Harvard is being sued for Legacy Discrimination using the recent Supreme Court Decision as the basis in law. Just when you thought you got rid of Affirmative Action. You have to love it when Thomas and Alito screw up!]

Hey, Joe Biden, an input to you on how to work through the system to solve the lopsided 6:3 court.  You have two paths -- you can raise the bridge or lower the water. One of those solutions is a bridge too high and regrettably you are already starting on that path of raising that bridge. 

A perhaps better solution is a page from the MAGA Republican Playbook is offered below:




  1. Get Re-elected!
  2. Use The ALCU, Planned Parenthood, the NAACP, the Sandy Hook, Parkland, and Uvalde Survivors add other activist organizations like our US College Students* to step up the pressure and "out" Alito and Thomas based on their "questionable outside interests". Raise the pressure so that the only course for them is to resign. [*Read up on Mario Savio at UC Berkley.]
  3. Add two reasonable replacement Justices whose views are diverse and inclusive.
  4. Revisit the bad decisions from the six and Make America Whole Again (MAWA) by reversing their questionable work!

What a sham -- 6 people who substitute their personal partisan political views for those of the majority of Americans.  An IRS Audit of the 6 sure is a great 1st step. 

A majority of Americans have a very negative view of the Roberts Court, and the actions by these 6 Justices during the last week only confirms and cements their low approval rating perhaps even driving it to below ZERO.

Instead of adding to the court, pick off the two who have their past actions as a basis of removal. You would be lowering the water!

To the 770,000 US Hams take your nose out of the ICOM IC7300 Menu Manual and get involved. Next, those 6 Conservative Republicans will be coming after your ham bands. Then it is too late! 

You don't think that could happen -- well all it takes is some rich Republican Donor who sees the 20 Meter Band and above as having some financial return and you are toast. It is suggested that the 8 Meter band won't happen here either because somebody figured out, they needed 45 MHz for some project.

Get off the couch and get involved! 

Do we have a Supreme Court or a Kangaroo court?

Keeping Things Simple. Update 11-01-2023. Back to the 6BA6 Radio

How About Building Something (HABS)?   Update 11-01-2023. The 6BA6 Parts Arrived Some of the parts included a panel meter that ranged from 0 to 30 ma and 2.5 Mhy RF Chokes. Back in the day you could fund these items in any decent electronics store but no more.  The meter was selected because the idle current on the 6BA6 will be about 3ma and at two watts the current should peak to 18ma. (about 2/3 scale). The panel cutout will present some challlenges but with the CNC short work. Pete N6QW Update 10-23-2023. It is indeed shirt pocket size. About two watts out and 60 kHz coverage on 20M.   My daughter took this photo and she asked who else has built a rig this size (mine is 16 cubic inches). I know of three including ZL2BMI and VK3HN and I think a DL station. Likely there are more but if you know of others please email me at my QRZ email address.  Of note this was built in 2011 so soon to be a teenager.  73's Pete N6QW  Update 10-22-2023. Some Clean up! I installed a 1pF NPO SMD cap

Update 12-31 2023 Rounding Out the Year

Update 12-31-2023. The last day of 2023. What better way to finish the year than to think about older boat anchors and how they can be rejuvenated to work on today's bands. Spending a better part of each day at the hospital where the only TV service is standard TV with the stupid quiz shows and of course HGTV, you basically go nuts. Quite often the OL is asleep and so not much to do but think about how to replace the drifting and non-linear Analog VFO's in boat anchor radios. No time to build stuff but lots of thinking time. One of my favorite radios is the Hallicrafters SR-160 (right along with the SR-150 which I don't have). But it suffers from a drifting  and NON-Linear VFO.    Based on my success with the Triton II, I asked why can't we do the same with the SR-160 (or National NCX-3 or even a SWAN 240). Well I think it can be done!   The SR-160 used the old trick of a higher frequency VFO @ 9 MHz with a 5.2  MHz IF. Subtract the IF from the VFO and you get 75/80M LS

Ham Radio didn't start with an Appliance Box. Real Hams Build their Rigs! Update 5-13-2023 (XYL is in Hospital)

Image
Ham Radio used to be synonymous  with home constructed radios! This Project will soon be winding down! Listen to N6QW and his daughter Gina, discuss the music business. An easy listen and an opportunity to hear Pete discuss a subject outside of ham radio. Yes, he is a genius! https://spotifyanchor-web.app.link/e/Giy1JZWD7xb Update 5-13-2023. XYL in Hospital No work being done on the 10M SSB right now as I spend a majority of my time at the Healthcare facilities attending to the care of the XYL. Last night well into the early morning hours I was at the local ER with the wifey. I only regret that I didn't wear my beret as I found that to be the #1 Chick Magnet.  But there are some interesting tools to be found in the ER like the no touch thermometer. Then of course there is this jewel. A unique Urine collection system! This is the equivalent to having a vacuum pump placed between the holidays with deference to the YL who named one leg Christmas and the other New Year. It may be a bit
