2m is hip and happening this morning - well worth a look if you’re near a radio

Some nice AS on GB3VHF thanks to an EasyJet Airbus!

Must be good conditions on 2m as currently hearing OV3T on FT8 using a home brew 450ohm feeder-based jpole at about 20cm AGL 🤣 (antenna being used to test something!)

This is turning out to be an excellent read - a bit of a page turner!

This is well worth a listen www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

Hey @rdavies6.bsky.social are you still experimenting with KA9Q radio as @g4bao.bsky.social is trying to set it up? #hamradio

Nice day for some much needed fresh air!

A bit of seasonal output from the Elliott 803 (on my 3D emulation).

A glorious day for a bit of plane spottering with a good friend of mine. Also delivered the annual Taylor Swift calendar Christmas gift 🤣

All done for the year - out of office on!

My build experience: radio.g4hsk.co.uk/2025/12/12/1... #GHz_Bands

It looks as though the Icom 7300MK2 YouTuber unboxitsing video thing has begun 🤦‍♂️

One of those days when some emergency chocolate was needed!

Thought I'd have a listen for GB3BED on 23cm - nice signal using big wheel PCB antenna in shack and a Nooelec wideband LNB #hamr

Brilliant! www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/...

How is everybody today? Any interesting radio/geeking planned for the weekend? #hamradio #hamr

Right peeps, let’s help David out….

Imagine being paid to come up with this stuff!

I try not to do politics, but having read the news items regarding mental health and neurodiversity, and particularly the ill informed bile being spouted on the BBC news website comments, there would appear to be some much overdue backpedaling www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

#aurora ?

Love some of the posts on Moon Net reflector - “To give away: Very large dish, about 12m diameter” 🤣 #hamradio

Sounds familiar! 😱

Blimey, one pic of a cool contest station, and everybody’s grumbling…I know it‘s a miserable Monday, but🤣

Holy cow!

It’s always interesting seeing inside contest stations!

B4T (The girl is 10 years old) #CQWWCW

YAY, it’s Friday!

Nearly the weekend! Pondering whether to have a play in CQWW CW…

HAVE FOUND POWERPOLES!!!

Forgetting antennas wasn’t too problematic as had more time for tea and cake! 👍

Oh balls! First rule of POTAing - remember to pack antennas 🙄🤣

An uplifting story for a Sunday morning! 👍🏅🏅 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Welcome to my world 🤣

Powerpoles remain elusive, but I can guarantee I’ll find them as soon as I hit buy on some new ones 🤣

Let's play hunt the bag of powerpoles 😱

How cool is this? Would make a fab SOZmobile! 😎

Help needed! I’ve got a LilyGo T3 LoRa32 V1.6.1 running LoraAPRS iGate. It appears to have gone deaf. I’ve tried latest firmware etc. Is this a known problem? #hamradio

🤣 ‘May this amplifier provide adequate pweor, much DX fun, and winning contest scores’ 🤣

😱

🤦‍♂️

The RSGB video of the discussion on polar modulation, chaired by @m1acb.bsky.social, is well worth a watch. Looking forward to seeing how the technology develops in future 😎 #hamradio #adequatepweor youtu.be/gXx5sa339i8?...

Great to have a catchup with @g4bao.bsky.social on Friday. I now have some ideas for my EME dish feed box, which will hold all of the switchery, small PA & preamp etc. Today‘s task is to think about all of the connections needed and to 3D print a connector panel #hamradio #hamr

This arrived in my inbox overnight, from G7TWC, who I had a catchup with at the RSGB Convention. Made me 😄 #hamradio #ContestingIsFun

Motivated by the RSGB Convention MCU class, I’ve picked up a @raspberrypi.com @raspberrypiorg.bsky.social Pico 2W to compare with the Arduino Nano from the class. Does anybody have any experience of the Pico ?#hamradio #raspberrypi

Oooo BAO-Funk! 🤣

I don’t watch much tv but thought I’d give Alan Partridge How Are You? another go after finding episode 1 meh! Episode 2 is rather brilliant, really hitting the nail on the head in terms of the stigma surrounding mental health and neurodiversity 👏1/2

Noisy, petrol powered, leaf blowers should be banned!

Surprised by the number of stations in CQWW who don't seem to be making full use of the check window/SCP!
