Some random bits from this week.
Are the pliers for the extra thick hairs the trimmer can't handle?

You should start a thread

Put that up as a first post and it would be

Hmmm. There's a thought. If anyone else thinks this is a good idea, I'd be happy to start one. I do have a few other projects I've completed which could be posted too.
Plus I really enjoy seeing what people put together as it's a good source of ideas.

Yes, do it, that would be a great thread.

Upgraded my scanner aerial to a high gain whip (Nagoya NA-771), what a difference. I can now hear clear as a bell the tower at London City airport, even from downstairs, before I was only getting one sided conversation from nearby passing aircraft departing and arriving. Also able to hear a lot more aircraft traffic in general on London ATC, Heathrow holding patterns and now able to hear VOLMET. Massive increase in range.
Am also now able to pick up TFL bus radio network which is used to communicate to bus drivers from a repeater. Many wireless headphones & TV extenders from neighbours.
Some silver cleaning polish, this stuff is like magic.

Nice. Imagine how much better it would be connected to a roof or mast mounted antenna.

Cool.
What kind of range have you got? Wouldn't mind getting something like this to see what I can hear. I'd probably only get Luton airport traffic at the moment but would like to know the ranges on the original and upgraded aerials.

Sounds like a slippery slope!
Cool.
Hard to tell, as I have no real reference for signals which are marginal. London city airport is around 6 miles away but I am receiving that well now on the upgraded aerial. On the standard rubber duck, I wasn't even hitting that. Worth mentioning that the area is extremely built up.

Testing out whether pliers or machine work better for those stubborn nose hairs?
Picked up a little bit of bird seed:
Should last a few weeks...
It works out at around £900 if all the issues are collected (100)
But might be really good if it does what it says it does.

Loads of similar stories regarding these sort of magazine builds.
This one is far better than the Hot toys one, more detail for a start.
People say otherwise the the Hot Toys one is far more detailed????????
