Channel Title: HB9BLA Wireless Channel Description: The things presented on this channel are mainly for licensed HAM radio operators (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amateur_radio). Please respect the laws of your country before you start a project that will emit radio frequencies. Otherwise, you will be punished. The first videos are HAM-related videos cross-posted from my main channel (https://www.youtube.com/c/AndreasSpiess/ ) <video> 020 QO-100 Update: Fried Things and a Success (Part 6) Description: Cross-posted video from my main channel (Because it is HAM related) In this video series, we are building a ground station for a geostationary satellite and trying to talk to a Swiss guy in Antarctica. It is a bonus series and not directly related to the regular topics of the channel. It is strongly suggested to start watching at the beginning of the playlist.

In this video, I will show you the architecture of a modern network consisting of state-of-the-art technology used by HAM radio operators. It should act as a teaser and an overview of our possibilities. All network parts are wireless, independent of the internet, and primarily TCP/IP based. A goal should be to make them also independent of the power grid. The backbone is extremely high-speed compared with older technologies like packet radio. It can include satellite communication as well as smaller devices like DMR radios and even LoRa boards. Parts of this network can be used stand-alone for your projects. And most of the technologies shown are available and used right now. Just not integrated into one network. This is what we try to build here in Switzerland.

While this is a good thing for quality life, it is less than satisfactory for a HAM Radio operator. There are mainly two solutions to this dilemma: A divorce with a move to a remote location or a remote station. Because I love my wife, a remote station is a proper solution. Today we will cover one of the most critical topics of such a project: Connect the Flex Radio at the remote station to our shack PC at home. Fortunately, we can use the same technology to connect securely to your home network from everywhere without the hassle of OpenVPN or Wireguard. Secure, simple, and free of charge! So this knowledge is valid for most of us.

If not done so, I strongly suggest you watch the series from the start, as you do it on Netflix. In the last videos, we built a prototype for the transmitter and learned how we could create a receiver out of standard and quite cheap parts. And we heard stations from the QO-100 satellite In today’s video, I try to finish the prototype of the Transmitting part by building a 2.4GHz directional antenna, mounting it to the dish, connecting it to the power amplifier, and trying to receive our signal through the receiver in Cornwall. The goal is to hear my own voice from the satellite. Exciting!

It is a fast, IP-based wireless mesh network using cheap commercial components. Because it is self-organized, it is easy to use. Its initial purpose was for emergency communication, but it is also a lot of fun without an emergency. Today, we will build our first network and connect it to the “SwissDigitalNet.” Beginners can learn what it needs, and experienced users see how we solve things.
