CQ VHF
Ham Radio Above 50 MHz

There's much more to VHF and UHF ham radio than FM and repeaters, and CQ VHF covers it all! Each quarterly issue is full of articles on the technology, activities, people and products that give VHF/UHF ham radio its unique flavor as our writers explore the opportunities you'll find on 6 & 2 meters, 222 & 440 MHz and above.

CQ VHF covers a broad range of skill levels, from the new Technician learning to program a handheld to the Extra Class microwave experimenter bouncing signals off the moon or working meteor scatter. Articles cover operating, technical topics, construction and radio history.

CQ VHF gives hams who love VHF/UHF their own unique forum for exploring the ever-expanding range of Ham Radio Above 50 MHz.

Spring Issue Highlights

The lead feature in this issue of CQ VHF magazine is the last article on chasing the last three shuttle launches. In this one John Pugh, KJ4YNE, describes how his organization, Quest for Stars, launched a balloon satellite that took pictures of the last launch of the shuttle Atlantis.

Two features focus on cubesats: The first,“3D Printing and MEMS,” describes a creative cubesat that will test a new propulsion system, as well as use 3D printing for a part of the satellite frame. The cover photo shows a deployed version of this cubesat. The second cubesat feature, “Real Science,” describes the University Nanosat Program, which is a two year satellite competition held among leading universities across the nation. Also in this issue Jim Kennedy, KH6/K6MIO, along with Gene Zimmerman, W3ZZ, publishes the third in a series of sporadic-E propagation. Read these articles, along with the regular columns in this latest issue of CQ VHF magazine.
