Im the captain the sailor man

Dapat can masuk ke kokpit feri..so apa lagi...rampasan kapal pun berlaku. Captain feri ni baik semacam lak. Sesambil dia drive feri tu dia pun tunjukkan dan beri penerangan tentang apa yang ada di console feri tersebut. antaranya ialah radar, ultrasonic depth meter, GPS bearing dan coordinate serta tak lupa vhf marine radio. Byk alat2 yang dipakai jenama Furuno. Cuma radio vhf tu je jenama Samyung. Feri pangkor ni bergerak dalam kelajuan 13 knot..tak sure nak convert ke kmj tapi dengan guna gps etrex vista yang saya bawa, kelajuannya lebih kurang 27km/j. Maximum speed ialah 17knot kata captain tu. Laluan feri pergi dan balik telah ditetapkan so bila track dengan gps, memang betul2 feri ni ikut laluan. Tak puas rasanya lepak kat dalam kokpit ni sebab kejap je dah sampai jeti. Anggaran masa diambil ialah 30 minit.

What happen to my paddle?

Hi hi...lepas exam hari tu paddle yang dibawak ke MCMC masih terbungkus rapi dalam kotak beserta keyer. Rasa macam nak keluarkan..entahler...bila lepas exam tu rasa macam nak rehat dulu kejap. Kalau tak QRL nanti bleh start semula untuk mengetuk. Harap2 rakan lokalan masih stay on CW practice. Takut gak bila terbiar lama then habis semua berkarat termasuk kepala otak. hi hi. Risau bukan apa kang nanti orang cakap lak mengetuk ni nak lulus exam je...keh keh keh.

Out of office

ada panggilan lak untuk menghadiri mesyuarat di Pangkor 26-29/05 so tak dptlah nak dxing. Kat sekolah keja banyak yang tertangguh terutama nak menanda kertas student. Minggu ni adalah minggu exam kat semua sekolah sebelum cuti pertengahan tahun hujung minggu ni. Rakan-rakan semua dah planning nak pegi bercuti kemana? Cuti ni ingat nak makan/tido je kat umah...letih keja so nak rehat2 dan tenangkan jiwa..:-)

Baru tukar banner

Ada cantik ka takda cantik...hi hi. Takde koroje so design banner kat atas tu. Tu je la idea yg ada.

My first 40m QSO

Petang ni monitor di 40m. Kedengaran 9M2SW dan 9M2NZ tengah QSO dengan rancak. Still tak berani nak masuk sebab setup belum mantap. Sesambil layan harmonic dan monitor di 7043 then kedengaran 9M2MGL cq. Cuba try contact, Alhamdulillah dapat walaupun report 56. Kira OKlah tu dengan antenna QRP ni. antenna yang diguna ialah PAR end fedz 10,20,40m. Masa tu guna 45W tapi pwr meter cuma tunjuk 25W je. Then kedengaran 9M2SW masuk dengan 59 report dan 9M2RS 55. Tapi 9M2SW tak boleh copy saya. Then 9M2YAS dan 9M2NAZ pun join. Copy semakin merosot dan terus qro ke 75W..so apa lagi, rig terus padam lcdnya dan restart bila PTT ditekan. Terus panic. Memang sah antenna ni tak boleh guna high power. sebenarnya antenna ni terbengkalai agak lama kat atas rumput...suatu hari masa trim rumput kat halaman guna mesin potong rumput bermatakan pisau, then tak perasan ada antenna kat atas rumput tu, habis antenna tu kena sapu dengan mata pisau dan luka parah. Insulatornya byk yang terkopak kena mata pisau potong rumput dan perasan hari tu masa nak naikkan ada karat kat wirenya. Mungkin disebabkan itu so conducting dah tak berapa baik. Apapun terima kasih pada rakan2 terutama pada 9M2MGL atas QSO. Harap jumpa lg di 40m.....sekian alkisah

Harmonic lagi..

Harmonic

Ingat hari ni nak balik kampung sungai Besar tapi tukar arah pulak ke taman permainan. Lama tak bawak harmonic ke Playground sebab QRL. sesambil nengok diaorang main-main, bolehlah try D5000 ni. Asyik dengan kamera so G5RV masih belum sempat nak naikkan lagi. Memula cable RG8x G5RV ni dipotong sebab nak buat antenna yagi. So sampai sekarang belum sambung balik cable tu. Masih belum dapat dx lg di 20m dan 40m.

Echolink validation

Need to repeat again the validation process for echolink. Nasib baik the echolink support team very fast and efficient. Within 10minutes after the license upload and send to them, they approve me with no hassle. So now im using my new callsign at echolink..c u all there.

Hands on D5000


My first try using D5000. Ini ialah my eldest harmonic named Ihtishaam. 4 years old boy. D5000 with 18-55mm VR + SB600. Quite impressive with this little DSLR.

Nampaknya zaman kegilaan DSLR melanda lagi. The kits lens just OK but not suitable for candid portrait shoot due to lack of bokeh. But PS CS3 will do the job by adding some blur to the background. The lens quit sharp but I really hate the variable aperture lens. My favorite lens is Tamron 24-75mm F2.8. Picture dibawah diambil dengan canon 350d + Tamron 28-75mm + 580ex. Canon color saturation is marvelous. The main disadvantange of D5000 is its cannot support other than AF-S lens. So cannot use Nikkor 50mm F1.8 prime otherwise use Nikkor AFS 50mm F1.4 which is 5 times more expensive than F1.8 version. :-)

Self portrait

Bercerita mengenai DSLR, mungkin ramai yang meminatinya. Kalau dahulu film SLR hanya mampu dimiliki oleh golongan elit sahaja (betul ke ni) tapi kini dslr mampu dimiliki oleh semua orang. SLR camera menggunakan filem ni tak mahal tapi nak membeli consumable macam bateri, filem dan develop gambar tu yang kos agak tinggi. Tetapi DSLR telah mengubah persepsi ini. Pengguna boleh mengambil shot tanpa memikirkan kos yg tinggi kerana semua gambar disimpan dalam memori dan bateri pula boleh dicas semula. Pendek kata semunya boleh direcycle. Akibat dari itu, pengguna lebih kepada 'shoot and think later' dari 'think first then shoot'. Kalau gambar tak jadi, terus delete dan compose semula. Ianya memudahkan tapi hasil seninya tidak seperti pengguna SLR yang mana sebelum menekan butang shutter, fikir dulu dan dah yakin barulah tekan.
Kalau dilihat teknologi dslr ni terus berkembang pesat. Saingan terkuat adalah nikon dan canon. Walaubagaimanapun, sony, pentax dan olympus mengiringi arus semasa. Kalau dulu sememangnya canon agak mendahului dari segi pengawalan noise pada ISO yang tinggi tapi sekarang Nikon mampu menandingi Canon.

Nak beli DSLR


Off topic sikit. Baru ni dapat budget ni utk beli kamera sekolah sebab kamera pns canon 570is dah rosak dan masih di canon service center. Budget tu cukup untuk angkat DSLR sebijik tapi tak pasti nak beli model apa. Biasa guna canon tapi ingat nak ubah citarasa ke nikon. Tapi sure kalau bagi ke tangan student, tak sampai seminggu, jgnkan dslr...nenek dslr pun jahanam...hi hi. So maknanya kena tangan cikgu di je la yg pegang benda ni. :-)

Tiada idea

agak tertarik dengan slogan IARU ni. Radio amatur ada hobi yang terpaling atas berbanding hobi lain. Walaupun dah banyak gak hobi yg saya buat sblm ni macam RC, photography, GPS mapping, kumpul sample (hi hi) dan mambawa xyl bershopping, namun hobi ini masih tidak menandingi hobi sebagai penggemar AMATEUR RADIO.

Cheap alternative for GLCD



Where to get an inexpensive GLCD? Standard 16X2 character LCD sell at Rm25 per pieces but we can get less price than that for GLCD. The answer is using nokia 3310 LCD module. Just now somebody quote me RM14 per piece including the chassis and speaker. The resolution is 84X48 pixel and its more than enough for small project that require simple graphic. I also found a lot of information on the net regarding this lcd. It time to break my 'tabung ayam' again to buy a piece. Check out this link that the 16F876A LC meter using this LCD and also a pic12f675 digital themometer.

Meder Reed relay for LC meter project


Susah juga untuk dapatkan equivalent part untuk dip relay LC meter ni. Setelah berbincang beberapa kali dengan designer LC meter ini maka saya pon cuba cari part yang sama tapi parts tersebut tiada di Malaysia. Kebetulan terjumpa spec yang sama di Farnell iaitu DIP05-1A72-12D part number 1079439 yang berharga RM21.72 sebiji. Untuk mendapatkan parts ini boleh pergi ke Farnell http://my.farnell.com/meder/dip05-1a72-12d/relay-reed-dip-5vdc/dp/1079439 Seperti biasa, saya cuba menghubungi meder untuk request sample. Alhamdulillah, mereka setuju untuk memberi 5 pieces part tersebut. Kepada yang ingin mencuba menghasilkan LC meter homebrew sendiri boleh lawati laman web VK3BHR di http://ironbark.bendigo.latrobe.edu.au/~rice/lc/. Difahamkan kebanyakkan DVM dipasaran yang ada L dan C measurement tidak se'accurate' homebrew ini dan kalau ada mungkin harganya agak keterlaluan :- ). So kiranya alat ini bolehlah nanti membantu untuk project seterusnya. Kepada rakan yang dah buat, jangan lupa untuk infokan hasilnya. selamat mencuba....

Hello again Ibrahim,

Sorry, I can't suggest a relay part number. I don't know what would be locally available to you in 9W2.

Any 5volt relay with a coil resistance of more than 130 ohm and a "normally open" contact should be suitable. It is not a solid state relay. It is just an ordinary electromechanical "relay" (coil, moving armature, one normally open contact).

This is what I waiting for...

* Publication Date: 2009-02-11
* ISBN-10 / ASIN: 1420077678
* ISBN-13 / EAN: 9781420077674

Product Description:

While the official documentation provided for the PIC family from Microchip is extensive, it can also be overwhelming. This book gives users the information necessary to understand the architecture and the programming of microcontrollers. Each topic is described using a reader-centered, top-bottom approach. First, the authors describe the concepts that are common to any microcontroller. Each of the topics is then detailed for PIC microcontrollers. Practical applications supplement each topic to provide further clarity. This book does not limit itself to a digital view of microcontrollers. Instead, it includes aspects of analog signals such as the acquisition and processing of external analog signals.
