Wayne KC3SQI guides another enjoyable session of the W3GMS 146.985 Workbench, as stations check in to share their week in radio. The group talks summits-on-the-air adventures, PA QSO Party activity, shack upgrades, and new gear acquisitions — including tuners, throw-lines, and even a fresh nanoVNA. A great technical discussion unfolds on weather-proofing coax connectors, with operators comparing coax-seal, heat-shrink, self-fusing tape, and other tricks for keeping water out in the wild. The roundtable also tackles repeater intermod, how it happens, why it’s so stubborn, and what solutions are in the works. It’s another night of practical advice, shared experience, and good humor on 985.
