I had the day off work today, but with the hectic life in a house where the kids are 5 and 1, I didn't get to do much Radio. We did run some errands, so I got to spin the dial a little bit from the mobile, but there's not much to talk about on that front today.
For me, the exciting radio activities for the day were in between other tasks, and after everyone went to bed. Earlier today, while my YL was picking up our daughter from school, I had the chance to add a couple more pieces to the sound card interface I've been playing with. I'll write more about that in another post because I made a couple fun little tweaks to it. Later on, after everyone went to bed, I finally put a cord on my new paddles:

This might not seem that exciting to many of you, but I felt like my paddles needed something nicer than just a PVC covered cord. Luckily, I found a nice cloth jacketed cable on Amazon for just a couple dollars - I think it adds a touch of refinement, don't you?

Link to the amazon cable? The ones that I found were over $11.

    - N3VEM -

         Welcome to my Ham Radio Blog!  This blog was started primarily to share my two concurrent shack builds - my mobile station and my home station.  Over time, this has grown to include sharing about my operations, and general radio-related thoughts that I have as a newer operator.  
         
    ​Enjoy!
