LOOKING FORWARD

Sierra Foothills Amateur Radio Club. Vice Presidents
Jim Jupin (WA8MPA) & Greg Dolkas (KO6TH)

• For the April meeting, Jim WA8MPA will do a technical dive into Common Mode Currents, the skin effect in coax cable, and how to visualize it all with a Nano VNA. Got a kink in your garden hose, and wonder how that works with your cables? What kind and how many ferrite beads cause a given result? They’re not all the same, and with apologies to Yogi Berra, if you don’t know what you have, it’s probably going to do something different! Come to the April meeting and find out how to make sense of all of this, and keep the currents (and garden hoses) flowing the way you want them to.

  But wait! There’s MORE!
