March 12, 2026 18:18 UTCDF1CN@social.darc.de4Success!I build a small patch panel out of single sided PCB material. There are just three connectors for now since I only have one antenna but two radios. The backside already has all the markings needed for future expansion. Currently I just need to print some labels at the club station (I don't have a label maker) and I am done with this weeks #hamchallenge. HC11S @hamchallenge
