Today on the Bands — Sunday, October 11, 2026
Sunday's roundup leans practical and a little nostalgic: documenting your station so future-you isn't baffled, a neural net taking a crack at CW, and a homebrew noise source for the microwave crowd. Add SAQ's historic alternator firing up for UN Day and a fresh AMSAT bulletin, and there's something for every bench and band.
In today’s roundup
- KV4AN: Documenting Your Station Configuration — QRPer
No summit vistas here, just a sensible framework for documenting your station setup so you can rebuild, troubleshoot, or hand it off without the guesswork. - Radio Waves: SAQ UN-Day Broadcast & Test Transmission, Radio Bulgaria QSL 10, Liblice Transmitter Masts Demolition, and Source for Streaming Station URLs — The SWLing Post
SAQ's venerable Alexanderson alternator is set to transmit for UN Day, bundled with QSL news and the bittersweet demolition of the Liblice transmitter masts. - ANS-284 AMSAT News Service Weekly Bulletins — AMSAT
This week's AMSAT bulletin covers six new satellites launched on Transporter-18 plus leadership re-elections, so check which birds may soon be joining your pass predictions. - DeepCW: Real-time Neural Network Morse Code Decoder — The DXZone
A cross-platform neural network aiming to decode CW in weak-signal, noisy conditions could be a genuine help where traditional decoders fall apart. - Simple Microwave Noise Source Construction for Receiver Testing — The DXZone
A straightforward homebrew noise source built from salvaged mixer diodes gives microwave experimenters an affordable way to characterize and test their receivers.
