K9KJ's Havana Project: TJ Points a Dish at the Moon
TJ, K9KJ, never meant to learn Morse code. Then he walked into his uncle's Field Day and heard a room full of grown men cheering over "Nebraska." Thirty years later he's working the world from his truck, bouncing signals off the moon from his driveway, and letting the neighbors wonder if he works for the NSA. Ask his wife what the dish is for and you'll get a different answer.Links:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@k9kjInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/_k9kj_/Blog: https://blog.k9kj.com🎵 Copyrighted music licensed from Lickd. https://lickd.coNext Up by Terry Devine-King, https://t.lickd.co/l/3j8GKMkV8lE

FEPLabs Jeem - We're Killing Ham Radio!
Jim Perry, WT1W of FEPLabs Radio, is back on Hamdom Thoughts. He was last here in June 2022, back when he co-hosted Coffee and Ham Radios. We swap Dayton roommate stories, he tells how he went to Extra and where the FEP name came from, and then we get into the wave of new ham software, including his antennacalc RF exposure calculator (which I sent a couple of pull requests to) and my Pat Winlink front end, Phat. Jim also announces on the show that one of his other new desktop apps will be released as opensource. We opine on UI/UX, clunky radio menus, why ham radio is a hobby and not a service, and why a yellow vest doesn't make you very useful at a fire scene.Links:FEPLabs Radio on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@FEPLabsRadioFEPLabs Radio on Twitter (X): https://x.com/FEPLabsRadioAntennacalc RF Exposure Calculator: https://github.com/WT1W-Actual/antennacalcPolished Ham Airmail Tool (Phat): https://github.com/denmojo/phat🎵 Copyrighted music licensed from Lickd. https://lickd.coSmokin' In The Boys Room by Mötley Crüe, https://t.lickd.co/l/4M90gQkOaXo

TTP Unplugs from IT
Hamdom Thoughts is back, and the first guest of the revival is a returning fave: KT7RUN Gaston Gonzalez, The Tech Prepper. Gaston first joined the show in January 2021, back when he was KT1RUN and EmComm Tools was still in its very early stages. Last September he left a 23-year career in IT to run The Tech Prepper full time. We catch up on what that change has been like, on Release 7 of EmComm Tools, and on the year he spent going deep on Reticulum. He explains his monthly shortwave show on WRMI and WBCQ and we nerd out about analog tools for a while.Links:The Tech Prepper on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thetechprepperWebsite: https://www.thetechprepper.comEmComm Tools Community: https://community.emcommtools.comTTP's Buy Me a Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/thetechprepperInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thetechprepperGitHub: https://github.com/thetechprepperIf you're using Apple Podcasts, please leave a review of this podcast!Also, please send in your podcast topic ideas or guest interview suggestions!🎵 Copyrighted music licensed from Lickd. https://lickd.coPARANOIA by HEARTSTEEL, League of Legends, BAEKHYUN, Tobi Lou, Ozi, Cal Scruby, https://t.lickd.co/l/YzVE8aW0Z3w

Tribute to KG6HQD Jerry Hildeman
In this long overdue episode, several hams share about Jerry Hildeman, KG6HQD (Silent Key). Jerry was a huge influence in many people's lives through his work as a police officer, his superb videos about Summits on the Air and his indomitable spirit of getting outdoors and "just doing it". He passed in late September after a long battle with brain cancer. A few years before that he stepped back to focus on other creative endeavors, and as news of the cancer came he went straight to God and family and made the most with those most important to him. We can only hope to be as brave, amazing, strong, and impactful as he was.
