Slowly rediscovering my fascination for radio communications. Meshtastic and Meshcore are running, dusted off an old analog scanner that I kept from my cb radio days in '97, and a RTL-SDR is on it's way. Good times :)

    Hear, hear. I’ve got the HF bug and deliver a specific feeling of joy when I QSO the farthest I can at a given power and antenna configuration.

    I got licensed in my 30s after wanting to when I was a kid. My farthest contact is 15000km from the US to Australia running 20W into a dipole hanging from a tree.

    Wild. Was that SSB or CW? From some time I spent in New Mexico a couple of years ago I managed to hit Malaysia on 100W SSB. I was floating!

    I'm looking forward to getting my raspberry pi set up so I can plug in the SDR and play around with python libraries.

    I also gavea DMR that I haven't even begun to explore yet, but I thought it would be good to have in case of emergencies.

    So many projects on the to-do list. Now if only I can find time for all of them...
