I walked out of my first big exam in my physics class at university, last Tuesday, feeling like I only got a C... the grade came in recently and I got an A! 😮

I'm a bit stunned 😮 lol

We’re in a meeting at work.

Someone is sharing a project update. Doesn’t matter what it is.

I say, “well, you flipped your scrapple too early.”

Do you understand what I mean?

(Please boost for visibility, this is very important research 💕💞)

From first student contacts with astronauts aboard the ISS to reaching learners around the world, the ARISS and NASA partnership has inspired generations through STEM education and amateur radio.

Today, ARISS is pleased to announce the signing of a new 4-year Space Act Agreement with NASA, building on a partnership that began in 2000 with the International Space Station's first educational payload.

#3307 - Spectrum Allocation

I'm always frustrated when I read an article about #hamradio. They always seem to get something wrong. Because of that, I've written A Media Guide to Amateur Rado. Please feel free to download and distribute it.

I replaced my Matrix handle with a SimpleX address.

#HamRadio people: How do I adequately ground my station if I can't drive a ground rod anywhere?

I'm looking at moving my station into my house from the shed in the back yard and I have no ground rod accessible to me and nowhere I can drive one into the ground because of a concrete driveway and patio adjacent to my office.

What are my options for proper grounding? Am I stuck trying to use a "virtual ground?" Maybe grounding to the electrical ground?

See https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/157.0/releasenotes/ for upstream changes.

So my technician ticket expired right after I moved to Massachusetts, and I am just getting around to renewing. Apparently, the #hamradio rules require that I retake the test and maybe upgrade to general.
If you have taken the test recently (or you're a VE):
Do you know if any of the commercial test prep programs are any good?

Since I had KK6IHP, can I take the general exam directly or do I have to do them both?

This is your official end-of-the-month reminder to go cancel that random subscription you used exactly once.

You're welcome.

My child is getting interested in #hamradio, any trustworthy sources of information out there? I am a little bit nervous that there might be a lot of #slop masquerading as correct information.

The CARA (@G5BK) Special Event Station, GB0GWR, at Toddington Railway Station will be active from 10.00hrs to 16.00hrs local time on Saturday 26th September and from 10.00hrs until 15.00hrs local time on Sunday 27th September.

(I'm not involved this year but also I don't think anyone at Cara promotes stuff here anymore)

This is a non-regular reminder that Blogs.Radio exists for finding amateur/ham radio blogs 🙂
