A recent trip to Milford on Sea found a couple of unexpected problems with the Sammy Netbook when he is out and about. RF managed to get into the touchpad somehow and it went silly with very little RF power about. This problem never showed up at home, I am hoping that shorter audio leads maybe with a ferrite filter will sort that one out.
All in all it was a successful trial. The complete station including Sammy ran on Solar Power. The Wind was not really significant in the provision of Current.
Running less than 1 Watt of WSPR on 10MHz, (I couldn't run any more power due to the RF problem), I was pleased to be copied in China.
Hiding round the side of the 'van proved to avoid a little of the RF getting at the Sammy.
