Santa Arrives at SolderSmoke HQ! Rigol and Black&Decker


Santa Claus obviously heard my distress call when the TEK 465 gave up the ghost.  This morning it was replaced by a RIGOL digital scope.   I'm going through the tutorials.  Wow, lots of features.  A Black&Decker jig saw also arrived -- this will help in my cabinetry efforts. 

Last night just before dinner I talked to Kiyo, JH1MDJ, in Tokyo on 17 meter SSB with the 5 watt BITX.   I kind of broke through a small pile-up and we then had one of those "please repeat your power level... I can't believe that is 5 watts to a dipole" conversations.  

Happy Holidays to all!

Some say he’s half man half fish, others say he’s more of a seventy/thirty split. Either way he’s a fishy bastard. Google
