JG1VGX: A Review of Cloud File Syncing Services
http://rin3.blogspot.com/2011/04/choice-of-cloud-file-syncing-services.html
Friday, April 22, 2011. A Review of Cloud File Syncing Services. I've been a big fan of Microsoft's Live Mesh beta. Until its scheduled cease of service on March 31, 2011. Microsoft suggests users to move to the new Windows Live Sync. Service (not beta) which won't support XP anymore. I can't step on to that because XP is still my OS of choice. So I did an extensive search for replacement FREE file syncing services. Here is the summary of that. This is currently my service of choice. It gives you 5GB.

JG1VGX: September 2011
http://rin3.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 25, 2011. While I was thinking about homebrewing PC control cables for various TRXs, I became quite confused so I made a schimatic to help me understand the issue. In today's serial communications, there are three 'states' which are ' USB. UART)' and ' RS232C. The source of the confusion comes from the fact that each maker employs a different method to hook up their TRXs to a PC. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). USB = TTL = RS232C(Serial, COM).

JG1VGX: ViewProp: Visualising openings from JA to Europe and North America
http://rin3.blogspot.com/2013/06/viewprop-visualising-openings-from-ja.html
Friday, June 21, 2013. ViewProp: Visualising openings from JA to Europe and North America. Kudos to Rick ZL2HAM, who has developed a truly fantastic tool called ViewProp. With which you can visualise RBN data in various ways (as well as traditional DX spots). From a contester's perspective, I am very interested in the time course of the openings from JA to Europe and North America. Knowing and preparing for them are most crucial in contest strategy.

JG1VGX: AP Sprint (Fall, CW) @Futtsu Point
http://rin3.blogspot.com/2011/10/ap-sprint-fall-cw-futtsu-point.html
Sunday, October 16, 2011. AP Sprint (Fall, CW) @Futtsu Point. I made a short trip to Futtsu Point, Chiba. To kick ass in AP Sprint CW (20/15m). This is a mobile action. Futtsu (pronounced like Footz. Point is located along the inner coastline of Boso Peninsula. It is some 50km away from my Tokyo home, but it's a comfy one hour driving via Aqua-Line Way. Apparently it's a place for surfing. Straight to the west, you can even see Mt. Fuji (shady at the center of the picture). I use TR4W for most occasions.

JG1VGX: How to Key Your Amplifiers with TS-590(G) or TS-990
http://rin3.blogspot.com/2014/12/how-to-key-your-amplifiers-with-ts-590g.html
Friday, December 19, 2014. How to Key Your Amplifiers with TS-590(G) or TS-990. In Yahoo Groups forums I've seen so many posts asking about how to hook up TS-590(G). To an amplifier via the REMOTE connector to key it properly and how to configure in the menu setting for it. I too was confused initially and have found Kenwood's explanation in Instruction Manuals. Rather vague and inadequate. So here's my attempt to shed some light on this. Two Ways to Key Amplifiers. DC 220V or AC 250V. Of the REMOTE conn...

JG1VGX: ViewProp: more charts
http://rin3.blogspot.com/2013/06/viewprop-more-charts.html
Saturday, June 22, 2013. This is a continuation from the last post. Let's look at some more. 2013/4/13) SFI=125, SSN=148, A=6, K=2. 2013/4/14) SFI=116, SSN=111, A=12, K=3. This 30-hour contest starts at 7z Saturday and ends at 13z Sunday. So there is a 6-hour overlap. That means we have two chances of high-band EU openings and low-band NA openings. Being situated during one of the best times for DX (mid-spring), both high and low bands open pleasantly for a good amount of time. 2013 ARRL DX CW. This I re...
