Is There a List of Museums Ships with Active Radio Rooms?

Posted: 10 Apr 2022 07:16 AM PDT https://www.reddit.com/r/amateurradio/comments/u0iha8/is_there_a_list_of_museums_ships_with_active/


So, I spent a good part of the pandemic binge watching Battleship USS New Jerseys YouTube channel. At some point the curator mentioned that the ship
has an active radio that hams can come and use which I think is really cool.
Is there a well maintained list of museum ships with active radio rooms somewhere? It would be cool to work all of them. Is there a "worked all
museum ships" award? submitted by /u/s-ro_mojosa

Xiegu G90/C19 Very Low AUX Out Level

Posted: 10 Apr 2022 04:21 AM PDT https://www.reddit.com/r/amateurradio/comments/u0flbb/xiegu_g90c19_very_low_aux_out_level/


Good Morning,
Ive been playing with the G90 and C19, using the Y audio splitter and a
short 3 pole cable. Ive tried internal audio and two different USB sound
cards but I keep struggling with low audio output.. For testing, I have the
AUX OUT set to 15 and have to set the volume of the Mic level in Windows
100 to get WSJT-X to register between about 30. With the recommended
values, the bar is in the low reds.
I know this is likely destroying the input to WSJT-X... anyone have any thoughts?
Thanks! submitted by /u/TechJeeper

Dead Transmitter?

Posted: 10 Apr 2022 07:11 AM PDT https://www.reddit.com/r/amateurradio/comments/u0iefa/dead_transmitter/


Hi all. Several days ago, we had a pretty gnarly lightning storm. It blew
out the data jack in my modem. A few days later, I went to my workshop and turned on my ICOM-5100A...and...nothing. No fan noise or lighting up on the display.
Its wired to an Astron power supply which is plugged into a surge
protector, and that appears to turn on fine, but its not registering the
ICOM as drawing any current. The cable itself goes out of the window
through one of these: https://mfjenterprises.com/products/mfj-4602I also
have the window unit grounded to a 4 long piece of rebar I have driven into
the dirt. What are the chances that this radio is dead? Any troubleshooting
I could do? I really like it, so I hope so.
Edit: I know I should have unplugged the antenna cable when it wasnt in
use. Im relatively new to this hobby and plumb forgot. submitted by /u/SirFluffkin
