Actually, it looks like we'll have a Two-fer tonight. There will be a train of Starlink satellites making a visual pass starting around 7:42pm, to the north-west. So, that's just as the ISS is setting

Hi Brian, Great seeing you, too. That the radio is flipping back and forth between modes "on its own" is telling me that something is either confused or fighting with something else. On the FT-8 Setti

Hi Jim, Thanks for sharing. I had already moved out of the Bay Area to Auburn at the time, but had family down there. I wasn't a ham at the time, so it's more than a bit chilling listening to the reco

Hi folks, We've got a couple more meetings this year, and I'm in need for folks to volunteer 5 minutes of their time to show off what they've created by way of a "Ham Shack". Be it a corner of a spare
