You've reached ke3ij.com, the new homepage of Rick Andersen. I've moved here from the now-defunct www.tricountyi.net/~randerse because the web host provider changed servers and lost my entire website in December 2009. Then, to add insult to injury, they didn't bother to inform me that my webpages were down-- fans of my Radio Projects page began to write and ask 'what happened to your website?' After 3 emails, TriCountyI.Net finally got around to answering, informing me of the loss of all of the files and suggesting that I upload them again. Well, I'm in the process of doing just that -- but not to their server. After being a loyal customer since 1996, I've decided that their customer service is too unreliable and I bought my own domain name, ke3ij.com, which is hosted by www.websitepalace.com . I have other websites with WebSitePalace since July 2009 and so far have had no problems, so if you're looking for a website provider, I recommend that you try them out.
For those who are not involved in the Amateur Radio hobby (otherwise known as "ham radio"), KE3IJ is my radio callsign, which is short and unique for use as a website name-- so I decided to name the domain after it. You can type "www.ke3ij.com", "http://ke3ij.com", or just "ke3ij.com" in your browser window-- all three map to this website.
Also, my old email address, ke3ij@tricountyi.net, has been changed to rick@ke3ij.com.
Right now, I am gradually uploading the pages of the old website up to this new website -- please be patient while I edit out the references to TriCountyI.Net from the html code and replace them with ke3ij.com. It may take a few weeks to move all the old "furniture" into the new "house", but in the meantime you can rest assured that my website is still "on the air" and I haven't taken my radio projects and walked off into the sunset.
I want to take this opportunity to thank all of my loyal readers and visitors for your interest-- I started this website in 2004 and there has been a steady (and surprising) growth in the number of visitors and 'fans' since then, from many different countries, who have written to ask questions or thank me for posting the free schematics of simple home-made radio circuits, most of which are common designs of yesteryear, with my own design modifications.... so it's not that I have such unique circuits, as it is that we old fogeys are slowly disappearing, and the new generation hasn't yet been exposed to the simple delights of "rolling your own" minimalist radio circuits. The era of "do-it-yourself" kit-building has pretty much passed here in America; although I acknowledge that trend, I also intend to buck it and to do my own small part in keeping the spirit of basement electronic tinkering alive for anyone who shares my hobby and wants to try his hand at building one of the simple circuits that our granddads enjoyed using, back when radio was young.
--Rick, KE3IJ
