In this video I create some cables so I can attach my circuits to my roof aerial. I also announce the old book and new book for the upcoming teardowns which will be released in the next few days.

While doing this video I learned over on the EEVblog Electronics Community Forum that the specific RF cable connectors we are using in this project are Belling-Lee connectors.

There is going to be a break in Maxitronix 20in1 videos for a few days while I wait for my new Logitech BRIO webcam to arrive. Once that is here recording in the booth will resume.

In this video I mention the Silicon Chip magazine and Beginner’s Guide to Reading Schematics. Also the various new book teardowns I refer to are:

I also refer to MPLAB X IDE and MPLAB PICkit 4 In-Circuit Debugger.

The technology I mention in the beginning of the video is this:

The new monitor I refer to in the video is this UPERFECT 4K Monitor 15.6″ Portable Gaming Monitor UHD PC Screen USB C Monitor.

The cables I use in this project are these:

I am pleased to advise that today my new Logitech BRIO 4K webcam arrived. I have installed it in the booth, and unlike the last one, this one actually works. The implication for me is less stuffing around when it’s time to record videos because I will no longer have to move one camera between two mounts, the cameras are static now.
