                                Amateur Radio Roundtable 
                                Subject: Martin F. Jue, K5FLU, founder and President of MFJ Enterprises

                                This week's W5KUB.com show (December 8th) will feature Martin F. Jue, K5FLU, founder and President of MFJ Enterprises. Tune in Tuesday night to hear the amazing story of how Martin grew up as a kid and helped run a small general store in Mississippi, got involved in ham radio, got his college degree, and built one of the most diverse ham radio manufacturing companies in the U.S. MFJ Enterprises has grown to include other companies such as Vectronics, Mirage, Ameritron, and Hygain, and has distributors around the world.  It is a pretty safe bet that you probably have at least one piece of MFJ equipment in your ham shack.  In addition to ham radio products, they also produce shortwave accessories and equipment.
                                 
                                Be sure to  send your FCC related questions to Riley Hollingsworth, K4ZDH, to [log in to unmask] Riley retired from the FCC’s Compliance and Information Bureau as Legal Adviser for Enforcement Program. He will be answering your questions every few weeks on our "Ask Riley" segment

                                You probably noticed last week that Amateur Radio Roundtable is back on shortwave.  We simulcast each of our shows live on shortwave radio station WBCQ on 9330 Khz. This station is located in Monticello, Maine. Our direct studio audio link was installed last week just hours before the show and it is working perfectly.  Please take note that the frequency has changed and the correct frequency is 9330.  Last week I made the mistake and was telling all our viewers the wrong frequency.  I would like to ask every one that can monitor our show on 9330 to please send us a signal report and your location to [log in to unmask] 

                                Amateur Radio Roundtable is a live weekly amateur radio webcast, held every Tuesday night at 8 PM CT (0200 UTC Wednesday) at  W5KUB.com.  The show covers a wide range of topics for ham radio operators and electronic hobbyists; including balloon launches, satellite, go-kits, emergency communications, SDR, digital modes, DXing, home brewing, hamfest updates, and more. We also want to grow our shortwave listener base and will be including programs that intrest those listeners as well.  Viewers will have the opportunity to ask questions via the chat room or telephone. 

                                We are getting great reports about the stability of our new main video webcast using Youtube Live.  It also appears that there are no commercials on the main video webcast now.

                                We have been using Youtube Live for our main video the past couple weeks.  It appears to do much better than the Ustream video.  Youtube allows us to broadcast in HD quality and there are no advertisements during the video.

                                Our shows are usually recorded and placed on YouTube's W5KUB channel the following day.

                                We need your help.  If you use Twitter, please send out a tweet 15 minutes before the show or retweet our announcement. I suggest something like "live #hamradio show starts in 15 mins on w5kub.com 8 PM CT".  This should help increase our viewer base.
                                 
                                Towards the end of each show, we provide a link and viewers who have a camera, microphone, and a Google+ account, can join the show. Your video and audio will be on the webcast.  This part of the show is very informal and up to 10 people can join. We talk about anything the viewers want to discuss.

                                We would like to share pictures of your ham shack on the webcast. Send a picture of your ham shack with a description and we will feature your shack pictures on the show.  In fact, if you give us your permission, your shack could be used as the background of that week's webcast!

                                If you have a specific subject idea for a future show, send an email to [log in to unmask]
