Title: ZCT279 - Shortwave
Post by: Frieshansen on September 22, 2024, 04:12:34 PM
The original idea for this track was to somehow recreate a Latch LS 279 (electronic component). But then I passed my amateur radio exam this month and wanted to do something in that direction. A fundamental element in radio is an oscillating circuit. This consists of a resistor (R), a capacitor (C) and a coil (L) - I tried to put this together somehow. The background is supposed to represent a spreading radio wave. The "73" at the bottom right is a phrase in amateur radio and means "all the best".

This track looks great! Beautiful background and reading your intentions 5 by 9! A hearty 7 3 to all pipsqueaks  ;)

Indeed!  Great track and very meaningful! :)  Let's see what I can do on this one. My performance has been very poor in this year's races

Brilliant @Frieshansen, it's always great to see a friend who shares your passion for electronics. I have already used some latches to replace relays on my path  ;D

This is an interesting track, too! There are meaningful decisions all over, which play out very differently upon changing cars.
