Welcome

 Welcome to the new radio communications websiite. I have started this as I can no longer self-host from home due to a transfer of ISP (albeit within BT Group but unlike Plusnet BT don't offer static IP and also the line speed is far too slow to justify it) So what will be on here? Well I'll try and update when I can, this will be focused mainly on the radio communications hobby, be it Amateur, CB, PMR446 or short wave listening (I can actually do all of these from home with some creativity) The content from the original site at this domain is backed up in an image file stored on a local machine so can in theory be accessed but I should be aware that by using this platform I may eat into my Google storage and that isn't ideal.

New pages on Baofeng BF-888 disassembly and Baofeng BF-888 frequency adjustment

 I've added the first pages to the site, these are on the Baofeng BF-888, one on how to take it apart and one on how to adjust the frequency if it has drifted, the latter does not appear to be well known online and to be honest when I first tried on my circa-2016 BF-888 it was just a guess, but it was a correct guess, this radio had drifted quite some way off frequency over 8/9 years and in my opinion was out of specification. A YouTube video (early access members-only at time of posting but will be public on the 19th February) is on the channel covering both these topics, photos from the video have been used to make the disassembly guide. The page links are above, so if you need a guide to open a BF-888, say you're making an Allstar node with it as they're popular for this, then all the instructions you need are there to get to the inside of the radio.
