Ham Radio - Viewer request - Notch filters explained. 

Glad you found it helpful Craig, that's exactly what I was trying to achieve.

I would be willing to do so, except that I don't run windows. All my machines are linux only. I believe that software is windows only. Router issues are common with any kind of remote access stuff. The router is a firewall, protecting you from the constant scanning of black hat hackers looking for machines they can exploit. Ports have to be opened to allow your desired incoming connection through. That's complicated by the multitude of routers and their varying user interfaces. Setup of port forwarding is different for each router brand and sometimes models from the same manufacturer. It would be difficult to cover just a few of them. One could speak to the general concepts and leave it up to the viewer to navigate the maze of configuration menus for their particular router. But not much more could be said.

@@loughkb general concepts video would be great. I know the success rate of hams using RSBA1 is low and there is a lot of grumbling. You would be doing a service to all those who need to operate remote if you could review that software, plus general concepts.

Solar charge controller, switching power supplies, TV sets, just about any electronic device can potentially generate signals.

Yeah, but that would burn through my propane in two to three days. I can layer up and deal with the cool mornings for now.

I don't think it would make any difference as far as noise is concerned. Noise generally comes in via the antenna primarily, maybe a bit on the power line. It would help protect the radio from static discharge though.

Unfortunately, HRD and Icoms remote software are windows only. All my stuff runs linux. Port forwarding through the router seems to be the biggest problem people face. The concept is simple, but routers all have different interfaces and it's often hard to find the correct menus within to set up port forwarding.

Nothing major really. You have to deal with the weather on a more direct line. That is, it has more of an effect on your day-to-day life.

Delta loops are one antenna type I have yet to play with. As far as going as big as you can and using a tuner. Experiment! It only costs time to try it.

Howdy.
