S-Meter Ham Radio Website
You may find this web site of interest. It was suggested a while back by Smitty. Here is a quote from the home page:
"Check your signal and listen to others on remote receivers. Read thousands of pages of ham radio information. Download virus-free radio-related design programs. There is no charge for receiver usage, any of the information, or any downloaded computer programs."

Updated Links
I have updated the Bell Ringers links page with some new content and some regrouping of existing content. Let me know if you have other links / topics that you'd like to see displayed there. I consider it to be a repository that will be updated infrequently while serving to complement the dynamic content of this blog.
In the green box to the right I have spotlighted a free open-source program - QUCS - that I enjoyed using recently to produce some neat and easy-to-revise schematics. I'm also learning to use its powerful circuit simulation capabilities. I have used both the Windows and Linux versions of the program. Contact me if you'd like more information.
Another program for you to check out is the 4nec2 Antenna Modeler.
