but it don't appear to be sending GPS co-ordinates

Visual representation of Trump's tarrifs:

Reporting From Alaska- Dahlstrom invited feds to intrude on state elections Anyone who reads the memo Dahlstrom approved with the Department of Justice can see that she agreed to give personal data on all Alaska voters—going far beyond the information that is available to the...

It seems to me the state of Alaska’s confidential MOA with DOJ to allow the feds unilaterally to determine who is not eligible to vote is ILLEGAL. The MOA abdicates the state’s Constitutional responsibility to run elections. What say ye @marcelias.bsky.social ?

Press: You posted a racist video to your personal social media acct. Are you going to apologize?

Trump: I didn't make a mistake!

what you could call flash photography :)

QSO with K2TQC using only 1w on FT8

#QRP #FT8
wow,
i forgot to up the power from 1w (had been running WSPR) to 20w and still managed to get a QSO with a US station :) :)

solar flare information

the sun looks a bit more active than usual, may be a bit of aurora in a day or so

playing FT8/4 on 12m / 24.9mhz today as the G90 will tune my antenna on that band, where as the FT991a won't

is it me or does everyone associated with trump seems to appear in the Epstein files

could also be the latest S&M face mask, flash the red lights instead of a safe word :) :)

basically how to look silly for a stupid amount off money

a new award added to QRZ awards

#USA250 #QRZ #Award just seen a new award added to QRZ awards

USA250

looks like you need 250 US confirmed QSO's, not sure of the time scale

i thought they were fancy hockey / ice hockey masks, as red lights to say "don't aim puck at goalie face" ??

M0PWX QSOs with Xiegu G90 running about 15w

#FT8 #QRP #XieguG90

not a bad haul on 80m & 60m tonight with my little G90, running about 15w only

or remembering an epstein party

To improve your contacts with the ISS using Doppler shift, know that as the ISS moves across the sky, it causes an apparent frequency change. For example, on 437.800 MHz, the received signal might vary by ±9 kHz during a pass. Adjusting your radio frequency to compensate for this shift will help you hear more clearly. Modern radios, like the one shown, feature frequency tracking to assist with this. For more details, check AMSAT-UK.org's Beginners page on FM sats.

Planning an ISS repeater contact In addition to tracking the station across the sky, be sure you are tracking the frequencies Doppler shift.

The center frequency of 437.800 can shift +/- 9 kHz during a pass.

Vienna Convention puts embassies & consulates as “inviolable”: can’t be searched, entered, etc by security forces w/o permission of mission.

So a warrant is besides the point except as extra fascist fuckery.

Not extraterritorial in sense it’s Ecuadorian land…
