HRN 434: Programming Strategies

/

The Live Stream has shifted
to 7 PM Pacific, 10 PM Eastern Sunday,
0200Z (Monday, during US Daylight Saving Time)

So, I know it looks like we’re talking and doing the pre-show right from the beginning, but you don’t hear anything. Because Gary did it again and didn’t switch audio onto the stream. Until his friend KE4TTS called to tell him. At the 11:05 point. Zoom on in. Gary’s an idiot😤🤪

How do you program your VHF/UHF radios? Totally by hand? Using software? Either way, do you have a plan? A strategy? Or do you just chunk channels in there willy-nilly?

We do ‘promos’ different. This one’s a 20 minute mini-show… longer than some shows do shows. And oops, Gary forgot to turn on audio for the first minute.

In tonight’s show, hosts Gary K4AAQ, David W0DHG and Midwest Correspondent Kyle AA0Z reveal their elaborate plans for programming their radios, and the software they use.

So there’s that, but so much more. Starting with the Hammy awards. And Gary and David did a 20 minute promo for this episode on Friday, so check that out, too.

And finally, thanks to Jason Johnston KC4HWB from Ham Radio 2.0 for giving us the lead-in at the end of his show.

AUDIO FILE TROUBLE: Fixed!

No Show Promo Show (July 4, 2022)

/

We’re not doing a show on Sunday, July 3rd, because holiday. But we can’t leave you high and dry. High is up to you. Dry we can help with a little. David and Gary popped online to do a five-minute quickie, and almost an hour later, they were done.

It starts right up!

Among other things, they discussed moving the show to a different time/day. There’s a poll on the HRN Facebook Group, asking when you the audience would like to see the show live. The results will ‘influence’ our choice.

Of less significance, Gary has a new green-screen background. He’s saying goodbye to the old Cary studio (just a memory, and also a picture), and he made a composite of the stuff lining the new studio. See if you can spot the discontinuity errors.

Have a good holiday and we’ll see you next week.

David was up almost all night. Could he do a show?

Jim was on the road. Could he show up?

Starts right up, no delay 😀

And Gary had spent a live stream earlier in the day* insulting Kyle AA0Z while restreaming Kyle’s Field Day live stream, then had the audacity to invite Kyle to come on the show. Would he show up?

The answers to these important questions will be revealed as you watch or listen to this week’s thrilling episode.
