Ham Radio Users Clash With Starlink Rival AST SpaceMobile Over Spectrum Use
AST wants to use the 430 to 440MHz band for a satellite-to-phone service. Ham radio enthusiasts say the company's plan is vague and could interfere with their slim slice of spectrum.

Here is switching on and off an 800A breaker I got from ewaste.

It has an internal motor to wind the spring, but its not powered up, so the manual winder has to be used.

Shiny waveguide multiplier with a WR-137 flange.
So maybe 5.76GHz target output with suitable Drive.
Currently best output was achieved on ~6GHz with 1.5GHz and 3GHz drive.

That we even considered sheltering such a wild slate of stories under D&W's patchy umbrella speaks to one of its great strengths and, to me, joys - it was less a comic, more a launchpad for whatever hare-brained thing tickled us in a given week, like releasing an entire album of in-character noise.

Okay so, one of the local radio clubs got these Avaya things.
Outside of them doing VOIP and that one dude reportedly has two controllers for them, I don't really know anything about them.

4x G450 and 3x G430
Is there anything useful one could do with these?

Or should we just part these out?

Got a SNES and a flash cart?
Find some fun data on how cheap ceramic resonators they used age and drift in frequency.

Came across an older video in my archives about the initial setup I used for testing the EDUP 2.4GHz linear amplifier.

Rated to do at least 50W from 20MHz to 512MHz and do that while being VERY linear.

Guess what, it's dead.
A quick lil thread about it.
