Project notes

[Saturday: 5 miles; Monday 3.4 miles]

I’m a bit behind on my blogging these days.

The TV repair project has turned out to be something of a bust.  I replaced some damaged components but the thing still isn’t work.

The autonomous weather station here has been giving me some trouble recently.  First it was that I had used up all of the “disk” space.  So I deleted some unused software packages.  Now it runs for a few days and then quits talking to the network.  🙁  I may need to reinstall that bad boy.

I’ve been playing with the Si5351 signal generator.  Over the weekend I built up some parts of a receiver for the 40 meter band.  The little receiver is doing pretty good!  I’m thinking about trying to make it a multi-band receiver.

Thanksgiving is coming up.  I hope you find lots of reasons to be thankful.  I am thankful that I have the opportunity to play with all of this stuff, do ham radio, take pictures, go out for a run.  It’s a good life.
