we started today with the last big construction in my house.
The Hamradio Room---New
NEW in the Ham Radio World
I quick idea to make my Tower better !
Home made Tower Hazzerd
A quick idea, what I plan in the future. My kids just moved out of the house. I have now 6000 sq free and not used, I am thinking about renting it out to Hamradio operators for vacations with use of Equipment.
You can visit local clubs in the Triad Area. We also have the availablity of 3 VE's testers to make a USA licence for Europa Ham operators. (The US goes 2 times a year to Germany to make VE testing for Ovesea Operators). We are able to do it here, with photos taken on testing day. Special event on side at HF and D-Star at that day, ending with a grill party in the evening and much more.
Area attrections within a day drive are: North Carolina Zoo; the USS North Carolina, which allows operation from the new public hamradio room; Wet-n-Wild Water Park; Race Tracks in Wiston-Salem & Concord.
We are close to finishing a nice Fitness Room with Hydro Spa and Sauna .
Plan on having the completion of Renovation sometime the end of 2009. I would like to start the first of the year. I have been already ask by other Hams in Burlington, who can also host some more visitors.
I know this is a new type of vacation and not much is available on this planet. I am planning on taking reservation, but if space is available, I will take last minute booking.

Old remembers:How it started in Burlington. Testing started without gateway in Okt.2007
| April 2008 | | It started in Oct. 2007.A german Ham Group from DOK F10 Werra Meissner ,taught me about Dstar. They just had a few Dstgar Radios at this time. I bought my fist D800, and traveled to Germany to find out more. after I came back I got the VHF Dstar repeater and Controller and Burlington was on the Air with my call sign AI4UE. KB4HG was already working at that time. I try to learn fast all I could about Dstar. In Jan 2008 until March the Repeater was without Duplexer on the City Garage K4EG. then back to the House, Duplexer Testing . Adding UHF also.. Then it moved to the final position at the Fire Tower Road, Snow Camp in Aug. 2008 Under the Eyes of Don Miller, HF Specialist all around, that System, now AK4EG, is doing better and better. We have spent a lot of time and money already on it to have it , where it is now ! And we're still not Finished! Also thanks to KJ4BEE, K4LAL and the Software master Ken KC4YOZ and Torsten DG1HT and Markus from Hamburg, Without these Hams with Amateur Radio in the Bood, it would not be like it is now, in Burlington, NC Big thank you to all, AI4UE Repeater Admin of AK4EG Repeater installed and on gateway G2 , first time April 2008 |

| 5/30/08 | | We have our own Hewlett Packard HP 8756A Scalar Network Analyzer 10Mhz to 60 Ghz Measure insertion loss and gain, return loss, and absolute power quickly and accurately with the 8756A scalar network analyzer. These scalar measurements can be performed over a broad 10MHz to 60GHz frequency range.
The 8756A features two independent display channels with separate controls. Complete measurements can be performed using only five control keys for each channel.
Make even faster measurements with one key - the "Autoscale" key. Press it and the built-in microprocessor chooses the optimum scale and reference level to display your measurement. Use the convenient display cursor to read out magnitude and frequency at each data point.
