Frame build for Yaesu FTdx10
I recently purchased a Yaesu FTdx10 as an upgrade to my IC-7300 for portable use. I wanted to build a frame around it again as I did with my IC-7300, as I really like it. I’d like to share the first design with you. Since the FTdx10 has stamped feet on the enclosure itself and…
V Dipole 40m Expansion kit
STL FILES: downloads here Although the design of the V Dipole is not new at all, the past few months after building the V Dipole have proven to be a great success. Success in the sense of being very quick to set up, requiring a small footprint for guy wires, and still being able to…
MiniBook Source Available
Why I Decided to Make MiniBook Public When I first started building MiniBook, it was just a personal project — a lightweight, no-nonsense logbook that did exactly what I needed without all the clutter of bigger applications. I never really planned to release the source publicly. But as the project grew, I ran into some…
Portable V Dipole
Update 27-04-2025: New body added, for 16mm tube mount. I saw 5.6m telescopic antennas on Aliexpress a while ago. I ordered a set with the idea of doing something fun with them later. I wanted to make a lightweight dipole to hang in the mast. Later I thought it would be much more fun to…
New portable setup for my IC-7300
Last summer I cycled a lot from park to park with my IC-705 and telescopic mast, with various experiments in terms of antennas. I have had a lot of fun with this, and will certainly expand this further for next summer season. The only thing I really missed is the simplicity of setting up something…
New portable Telescopic mast

It was a perfect fit for my plans, so I decided to make the purchase. Back home, the excitement of my new acquisition fueled…
Fixing 10/11m 5/8 Vertical
During a field activation I noticed that my 10m 5/8L Vertical occasionally performed poorly. I soon discovered that a solder contact had broken loose. Probably due to transport. With some trickery I was able to temporarily solve this problem. When I got home I soon discovered that there was more going on. The center pin…
Battery Box upgrade
In the summer of 2023 I started using a LifePo4 battery. I had made this in a bag for the time being, with all electronics loose in the bag. Of course this will cause problems at some point. To solve this I was looking for a suitable box. The problem with my size battery was…
Tuner functionality added to Portable Setup
Portable Setup Upgrades April 2024 I’ve made some additions to my Portable Setup. Auto tuner added, with a wider tune range. BalUn added to work with ladderline. Tuning Aid added. Auto tuner I had owned an ATU-100 tuner for a while. But I had a lot of problems with that. Coils that quickly went into…
