He started to play. Homo ludens was born! Homo sapiens to Homo Ludens Homo ludens radiactivus – amateur radio Homo ludens [...]

Tweet-a-Watt! A safe and simple wireless power monitor
This is an Embedded Project using a XBee. Makes an Energy/Watt/Power Meter into a Wireless Intelligent Sensor. These Sensors are Interfaced to a PC using another XBee. The Data Acquired can be Displayed(monitor), Logged (sql/csv) and Analyzed (graphs/reports). Then you can form a set of Green Resolutions and Implement them. Tweet-a-Watt! A safe and simple [...]
Antenna-amplifier with BFT 12 for FM-range
The only way to improve the reception of FM-signals or particularly of stereo FM-signals under disadvantageous receiving conditions is to amplify the antenna signal. This should be made directly at the antenna, since the loss is increased meter by meter of any cable. In most cases higher line attenuations can be expected than usually calculated. [...]
