HomePage: Welcome to the RaptorZone
So what's this web site all about? Most importantly to share my technology interests with other technofiles ... otherwise it's here just for the fun of it.
Short wave listeners or SWL's might find the list of frequencies I accumulated over the years of scanning useful. I use an ICOM IC-R8500 communications receiver and found there are only a few programs available to control the receiver remotely by means of a PC via RS-232. I experimented with Visual Basic and wrote a small example program for demonstration purposes. Years ago I designed and built a FM stereo encoder and transmitter to find out more about FM stereo encoding and transmission. Recently I took up the hobby of building and flying electric powered radio controlled (R/C) foam planes. Here is a page which includes basic, teach yourself to fly guidelines, and two online battery re-charging calculators. ![]() Contents and images © 1998 to 2008 RaptorZone v7.0 All rights reserved |
