I’ll be posting about this wonderful, yet plagued by TikTok device.
To start however, I have created a GitHub for my files of IR and Sub-GHz captures for those interested.

VA7ZZS – Yep I passed!
I finally took the exam, and I passed with a graceful 82 out of 100… Meaning I got honors!
For those not aware of what this means:
A simple pass (70/100) = Access to bands above 30MHz only
An honors pass (80/100) = Access to bands below 30MHz.
My handhelds that were collecting dust now have a purpose again! (I used to hold a business license in the UK)
Amateur Radio License
This year I look forward to being able to get my amateur radio license, and take to the airwaves.
I have long been an avid listener to stations, and have been interested in walkie talkies, CBs, and RF stuff for many years and thought it was about time I took this a step further.
The community in British Columbia seems to be strong and growing, and I would like to be a part of that now I am a permanent fixture here in Canada.
Tools in my arsenal:
- Motorola MOTOTRBO DP4800e (NA: XPR7550e)
- Retevis RT8
- Retevis RT81
- Retevis Ailunce HD1 (awaiting delivery at time of writing)
I look forward to chatting to you on the airwaves soon!
