Audio and Speaker Building
Building audio equipment has been a hobby since I was a young lad. From those meager days of building and repairing amplifiers that I would find in the trash. The latest speakers are in a sealed enclosure configuration. I plan to tri-amp the system with an active crossover. They sound pretty good with a passive crossover now. I am in the process of building the amplifier. It will contain three 2 X 100 watt RMS amplifiers powered by two 24 VDC 18 amp power supplies configured in current share mode. And yes.. plenty of capacitance for those large current spike demands.. I have attached a few pictures of the speaker construction project. When I get the amp further along I will put up some pictures.
Amateur Radio
Ham radio is a great hobby. It has something for everyone. I got hooked during a field day event years ago and joined my local club. I really have enjoyed modifying commercial equipment and building amplifiers, antennas and assorted electronics. I have included a few pictures of one of my favorite contests the June VHF QSO contest.. These pictures were taken on a high outlook at Skyline drive (Shenandoah National Park) in Virginia. I was operating as a Rover and active on 6 meters, 2 meters and 440Mhz. And my call you ask.. N3RBW
