K9JEB Ham Radio

Hi - I'm John K9JEB, Amateur Radio Operator from Camano Island, WA USA

     About K9JEB.com (It's just ME - the one guy...)


  I used to design and build circuit boards primarily for power distribution, using the standard Anderson PowerPole connectors that HAM radio operators (and a lot of other fields) use as standard equipment. I designed these circuit boards because I needed them - and shared the finished product with others who do also. We all need our equipment to communicate, and I wanted HAMs to get what we need at the lowest possible cost. These boards were sold as kits, to encourage the spirit of invention and self-reliance that the tradition of HAM Radio has had from its earliest beginnings. We used to build our own equipment - not buy it!

  The philosophy I had was to provide a much lower cost product than "retail" for HAMs who want to "build their own" rather than buy something mass-produced. I do actively support other HAMs that are in business to make money, but profit was not the purpose of my site or products.

Because I've moved out of the city to Camano Island, there's a lot more yard - and a lot more yard work! I have precious little time outside my full time job, so I decided to stop selling the boards and antennas as there is unfortunately no time for this endeavor any more.


Since there has been some demand for the boards I have shared some of the files here that people can use to make their own boards and print the cases. They are free to use, but please do not sell these for profit as I still hold the copyright.


In my spare time, I do occasionally even get to spend some time actually talking on the radio! I'm also a volunteer with the Island County ACS team where we take care of the communities in Island county - Whidbey and Camano islands.


These are some of the places where you might find me listening:
