Molokai DX - 80-6M 100W HF Ham Radio Antenna OCF Off-Center Fed Dipole



This is one of the 3 antennas used on our Holiday DX Peditions on Molokai, in the Hawaiian Islands. Stayed up for 7 days. Used for sending HF Winlink emails, FT-8 and SSB phone/voice contacts for both NVIS in the island and DX. This was great for switching bands and checking propagation very fast. I used more for 40m and 80m as the other antenna was Vertical I would switch on don't 10m, 20m, 15m. We hung it about 20 feet in the air. The center-hung from a ironwood tree and the to ends were hung around coconut trees. Using Bungee Cords and 8" Canopy/Tarp Ball Ties and paracord rope. Once the loops around the coconut trees had tension, they were pushed up with a random bamboo pole that had washed up with high tide. This info is from N9SAB the maker of the Antenna. 80-6M 100W HF Ham Radio Antenna OCF Off-Center Fed Dipole Integrated 4:1 matching transformer with a UHF SO239 his antenna requires a tuner. The antenna is an 80 Meter half-wave dipole fed 1/3 of the distance from the end. This raises the feed-point impedance to approximately 200 ohms. To compensate, the antenna is equipped with a 4:1 Ruthroff -style voltage balun (impedance matching transformer) embedded between the UHF female connector and the 18 AWG UL1007 elements. The transformer uses one (1) FT140-43 ferrite toroid. The result is a highly functional OCF dipole for use on 80 through 6 meters. Parts and connections have been weather proofed using marine-grade, adhesive-lined double-walled polyolefin shrink tubing Weighs under 20oz. (566 grams) 47 feet in length, the other approximately 83 feet It fits easily into a pocket. What is Winlink? It works all over the world, all the time, and requires no infrastructure other than that provided by amateur radio operators themselves. As a result, many emergency planners see Winlink as a crucial backup when all else has failed. The Winlink has a large library of forms that allow hams to enter information or transmit messages in the specific format needed by whichever agencies are involved in a particular emergency event.

Molokai Venison Shepherd's Pie Recipe Chef Ronnie Cooking with Grace Lee on Hawaii News Now

Molokai Venison Shepherd's Pie Recipe

 St. Patrick's Day is coming up and if you're looking for a unique twist on traditional Irish fare, look no further than Molokai Venison Shepherd's Pie. This dish, created by Ronnie Nasuti of Tiki's Grill &  Bar, is a savory blend of fresh ingredients and game meat, making it the perfect main course for any St. Patrick's Day celebration.

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb of molokai venison
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon of tomato paste
  • 1 tablespoon of olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon of butter
  • Fresh herbs (thyme, rosemary, etc.)
  • 2 cups of kale or collard greens
  • 4 medium potatoes, peeled and boiled
  • 2 tablespoons of green onions, sliced
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup of chicken or beef stock
  • 1/2 cup of frozen peas
  • 1/2 cup of carrots, diced
  • 1/2 cup of fire-roasted corn

Instructions:

  1. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and cook until they become translucent.
  2. Add the minced garlic, tomato paste, and fresh herbs to the skillet and cook for 1 minute.
  3. Add the chopped molokai venison to the skillet and cook until browned.
  4. In a separate bowl, mash the boiled potatoes and add salt, pepper, and green onions.
  5. Add the peas, carrots, and fire-roasted corn to the venison mixture in the skillet and stir to combine.
  6. Sprinkle the flour over the mixture and stir until combined.
  7. Pour in the chicken or beef stock and continue to stir until the mixture thickens, about 3-5 minutes.
  8. Preheat your oven to 375°F.
  9. Transfer the venison mixture to an oven-safe dish and spread the mashed potatoes over the top, covering the mixture completely.
  10. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the mashed potatoes are lightly browned.
  11. Serve hot and enjoy your delicious Molokai Venison Shepherd's Pie.

This Molokai Venison Shepherd's Pie is a great alternative to traditional lamb-based shepherd's pie, and the use of venison adds a unique flavor that is sure to impress. The venison used in this recipe is from Molokai, where hunting is allowed due to the large population of deer on the island. The venison has a mild flavor, but if you prefer a stronger game taste, simply add more herbs or seasonings to the dish.

The creamy, gravy-like sauce is made from the combination of flour and chicken or beef stock, and the fresh herbs, garlic, and kale add a touch of green to the dish, making it the perfect meal to celebrate St. Patrick's Day. Serve with a cold beer or a glass of red wine and enjoy a delicious and unique twist on traditional Irish fare.

KH6ML Takes First in South America 1Øm Contest from Molokai 2022 Hawaiian Islands #1 rank and #1 in OC a World Rank of #202.

Amateur radio operators have a unique opportunity to connect with people from all over the world. The South America 10m contest is just one example of the exciting events that bring amateur radio enthusiasts together. 

Last year, I was lucky enough to participate in the 2022 contest and was honored to receive the Hawaiian Islands #1 rank and #1 in OC and a World Rank of #202.

OC in Ham Radio refers to the "Oceania" continent, which includes countries in the Pacific region such as Australia, New Zealand, and various island nations. In the context of Ham Radio contests, OC is used as a shorthand to designate the geographical location of amateur radio operators. This designation is used to keep track of the number of contacts made with different regions around the world, and to foster friendly competition among Ham Radio operators.

The South America 10m contest is a great way for amateur radio operators to improve their operational abilities and to connect with others who share their passion for the hobby. The contest organizers, http://sa10m.com.ar/wp/en-home/, put a lot of effort into creating a fun and enjoyable event for participants. I was thrilled to be a part of this contest and I look forward to participating in future events.

Operating from Molokai during a DX Holiday was an amazing experience. I used an IC-7300 and mainly a Rob KH6RX vertical push-up mast to beam my antenna towards South America. The 28MHz propagation conditions were excellent and the enthusiasm of the participants made it a truly enjoyable contest.

I want to extend my gratitude to the South America 10m contest organizers for creating such a fun and exciting event. I also want to thank the amateur radio community for their support and encouragement. It is through events like this that we can continue to share our passion for this amazing hobby and inspire others to get involved.

Receiving the Hawaiian Islands #1 rank and a World Rank of #202 is a humbling experience and I am honored to have received such recognition. I hope that my participation in this contest will inspire others to get involved in the amateur radio community and to continue to share the passion for this amazing hobby.

In conclusion, the South America 10m contest is a great way for amateur radio enthusiasts to connect with others who share their passion for the hobby. I am grateful for the opportunity to participate and I look forward to future contests. Let’s continue to share our passion for amateur radio and inspire others to get involved.


Contest are just one of many ways that the Ham Radio community comes together to celebrate this amazing hobby and to connect with others from around the world.

Winter Field Day Association
 Winter Field Day Association (WFDA) is a dedicated group of Amateur Radio Operators who believe that emergency communications in a winter environment is just as important as the preparations and practice that is done each summer but with some additional unique operational concerns.
​ We believe, as do the ARES & RACES organizations, that maintaining your operational skills should not be limited to fair weather scenarios. The addition of Winter Field Day will enhance those already important skills of those that who generously volunteer their time and equipment to these organizations. This is why WFD is open to all licensed amateur radio operators worldwide.
​
 Disasters are unpredictable by nature and can strike when you least expect them. WFDA's goal is to help enhance your skills and ready you for all environmental conditions found in the US and Canada during the spring, summer, fall and winter Preparedness is the key to a professional and timely response during any event and this is what local and state authorities are expecting when they reach  out to the emergency service groups that offer their services.
​
 If you are serious about emergency communications as we are; we welcome you to join us for our yearly event. We are sure you will find this event a pleasant change and challenge to that of a normal summer time field day.

An amateur radio operator is someone who uses equipment at an amateur radio station to engage in two-way personal communications with other amateur operators on radio frequencies assigned to the amateur radio service. Amateur radio operators have been granted an amateur radio license by a governmental regulatory authority after passing an examination on applicable regulations, electronics, radio theory, and radio operation. As a component of their license, amateur radio operators are assigned a call sign that they use to identify themselves during communication.

Extended, the dipole is cut for the 80 meter band with one element approximately 47 feet in length, the other approximately 83 feet. It can be used in any of the standard dipole configurations, flat-top, inverted V, sloper, vertical dipole, wire vertical w/counterpoise, etc. but the patterns achieved through different configurations are not the same as with a classic half-wave dipole in a standard configuration.
