About This Site

I'm a licensed amateur radio operator with a growing interest in pairing traditional ham radio with modern home automation tools like Home Assistant. This site will document projects, lessons learned, and practical guides — written for operators who are comfortable with a soldering iron but new to things like YAML configs, automations, and network integrations (and vice versa).

What's Coming

Shack Automation

Using Home Assistant to monitor rig status, antenna switches, SWR alerts, and power sequencing.

Remote Operation

Setting up safe, reliable remote access to your station from anywhere.

Digital Modes & APRS

Integrating FT8, APRS tracking, and other digital modes with home dashboards.

RF Science, Explained

Plain-language explanations of the "why" behind the gear — propagation, antennas, and signal theory.

The site is just getting started. Reach out with questions, ideas, or your own shack automation projects.
