I like the design of ea7hvo loop antenna controler, I'm about to finish mine and it look easy to use.

Loop antenna with motor and controler.

On the first day of the REF contest, I couldn't adjust my antenna. It came from the junction between the motor and the CV. The screws had loosened so I could adjust the SWR in one direction but not the other... Good idea to take everything apart this morning ! #hamradio

It's a great ARISS day! Come join us!

We're starting with a ham radio contact between the ISS and France in a few hours.
Then we'll be back at SEEC and starting our weekend at Orlando Hamcaction.
In Orlando don't miss our Engineering forum, and see the IORS at our booth!

On a BPQ BBS, "Send aprs mail for ssid" = receive a message via aprs each time you have a new pm on the BBS.

Python3 script: clublog.org/quell.py.html

It reads your feed and blocks accounts following more than 2000 people AND more than twice their own follower count. Reads in 100 latest posts to read the feed, may not be the best way.

If you know of better ways to do this, go for it folks, invent! (2/2)

I've mentioned a few times I find it *really* annoying when people make BlueSky accounts just to follow thousands of people (they are generally posting nonsense and politics). So I wrote a script to use the BlueSky API to block them... (1/2)

The unsigned.io firmware has a limitation on TX power at 17dBm even on hardware able to tx more, looking at the source it's in sx127x.cpp line 342? Now the issue is , 've found how to recompile it with arduino-cli but can't upload it, it needs a stk500 programmer.

Now my node's LoRa access is no longer 50 mW but 3.5W.
I just have to put everything in the box.

I think playing 1 hole at a time is the first goal, 2nd learn how too bend and play by ears.
Adam Gussow and Rony Shellist have good youtube channel.
And Jean Jacques Milteau show easy song on his channel, that you can learn by ears.
Play in your car, nobody will hear you :)

It's a Raspberry Pi with touch screen, and ZR6TG QO100 datv monitor software :

www.zr6tg.co.za/2022/06/29/o...

So I can monitor the band offline, and start my computer if there is some activity and use the opentuner soft (ZR6TG too) on my minitiouner.

With the help of F8COD, a lora module with rnode on a R Pi with linBPQ and another on a PC with AGW PE. I manage to connect to my BBS with agwterminal. The trx is slow because the modules is at 100% band use but it's just the beginning !
Happy New Year !
