Interesting bits on building amplifiers, and how to properly maintain crank-up antenna towers (it's remarkably complicated).

The Easy Way edit / delete

Why high SWR and feedline radiation isn't necessarily a bad thing (because it doesn't actually cause much loss in practice, and it lets you tune the antenna from the transmitter end).

VOACAP Quick Guide: HF Propagation Prediction and Ionospheric Communications Analysis edit / delete

The Google Maps-based predictor is pretty cute: it'll give you a nice chart showing which frequencies should work well between two points throughout the day.
