This antenna design came about following discussions about what antennas to use for the RSGB 21/28MHz contest. Eventually it was decided to go for a loop on each band. This article describes the construction of the 10m version, although the 15m version is similar.

Here in Worthing I have been wondering IF the great man himself, ever visited here. I believe that it has been said somewhere that he came up with a version of the Morse code whilst on a trip across the Atlantic…. But was that trip preceded by a visit to the Worthing, or more appropriately High Salvington, area?

This article describes the construction of a lightweight, ultra-portable 5-element beam antenna for 2m. It provides useful gain and front-to-back ratio whilst packing down to a very portable metre-long package. It is quick and easy to deploy; it is possible to set it up single-handed in less than 15 minutes.

The Twin-T oscillator is a simple, reliable oscillator that gives a sinusiodal output without the need for a negative-resistance element to stabilise it. It runs happily off of a range of supply voltages and can be built around almost any NPN or PNP trnasistor, or around an op-amp. It makes a nice sidetone oscillator for a CW transmitter, or a very good Morse practice oscillator. It can also be used as the basis of a two-tone oscillator for testing SSB transmitters.
