–Devvrat Singh and Nishita Gupta Introduction The Supreme Court recently stayed an order of the Bombay High Court discharging Professor G.N. Saibaba in an alleged Maoist links case under the UAPA (Unlawful Activities Prevention Act). The effect of the order was that professor Saibaba who happens to be wheelchair bound and suffering from 90% disability … Continue reading Interpreting Sanction for Prosecution under UAPA in the light of GN Saibaba verdict| The Criminal Law Blog
Wait… It’s September already? Where did the summer go? Anyway, I observed the (unofficial) end of summer with a POTA/WWFF activation—and it was a fun one. I drove up to Norristown Farm State Park (US-4363, KFF-4363) for an early morning activation. I tend to do early activations to avoid the crowds. There was another reason … Continue reading "End of Summer Activation"| WB3GCK QRP Amateur Radio
A while back I purchased one of AD8HK’s end-fed random wire (EFRW) antennas. I tried it for the first time during my ill-fated Flight of the Bumblebees (FOBB) outing. With everything that went wrong that day, the AD8HK antenna certainly deserved a better evaluation—at least one where I wasn’t in a panic over problems with … Continue reading "Round Two with the AD8HK EFRW"| WB3GCK QRP Amateur Radio
In my last post, I talked about using a simple antenna comprising a 15-foot radiator, a 7.5-foot counterpoise, and a 4:1 unun. It worked well, but I found it a little touchy to tune on 40M. Today, I tried the same configuration, but with a slightly longer radiator and counterpoise. I wanted to add a … Continue reading "More Antenna Testing in Valley Forge"| WB3GCK QRP Amateur Radio
On Wednesday, August 7th, I set out to do some antenna experimentation. So, why not get in a POTA/WWFF activation at the same time? To kill those two birds with one stone, I drove down to Ridley Creek State Park (US-1414, KFF-1414). (Disclaimer: No birds were actually harmed during this activation.) I saw some discussion … Continue reading "Antenna Testing at Ridley Creek"| WB3GCK QRP Amateur Radio
I normally have my old YouKits HB-1B nearby as a backup radio. In that role, it spends a fair amount of time tucked away under the backseat of my truck. I hadn’t used it in a few months, so I fired…| WB3GCK QRP Amateur Radio
I’m at the stage in my life when I should be “thinning the herd” when it comes to radios. So, what do I do? Instead of getting rid of some stuff, I fire off an order to Elecraft for a KH1 Edgewood package. I need another QRP rig like a hole in the head, but … Continue reading "I Went and Did It"| WB3GCK QRP Amateur Radio
Wanting to take advantage of the excellent weather today, I drove up to Evansburg State Park (US-1351, KFF-1351) for a quick morning activation. I wanted to give my Gabil GRA-7350TC vertical some a…| WB3GCK QRP Amateur Radio
I made some contacts in the monthly Straight Key Century Club (SKCC) Weekend Sprintathon (WES) this morning and completed a POTA activation while I was at it. My operating site today was Ridley Creek State Park (US-1414, KFF-1414). I rolled into one of my favorite spots and set up my table and chair in the … Continue reading "WES & POTA at Ridley Creek"| WB3GCK QRP Amateur Radio
The (far) better half and I took the trailer back to French Creek State Park (US-1355, KFF-1355) for a weekend of camping. We were hoping for some nice weather, but Mother Nature had other plans in…| WB3GCK QRP Amateur Radio
I made a quick trip over to nearby Valley Forge National Historical Park (US-0761, KFF-0761) this morning. It almost didn’t happen, but it turned out to be a fun morning. Located a few miles from m…| WB3GCK QRP Amateur Radio
