Nothing from the Perseid's!
Most of that, aerials excluded, will be all be done on computer now I suppose. No need to have a seperate Radio Room, with the seperate sets on one wall.
In ways I'm sorry I didn't get my own setup years ago. Would I still be in to it now?
Hope you charged a deposit, non-returnable, when you loaned it out.

When I said you were going looking for yer spot, I were thinking more of being chauffeured there. Deck chairs aren't too easy carry on a bike.
Close to home at that. Enjoy
That kettle boiled yet!!

HERE
I have 1st and 2nd..
second has better filtering for VLF, my winter interest..
obviously need a computer, antenna and coax and a program to run it..
I'm using SDRUno but they just released a beta new program SDRConnect..
I'll have a play with it..
Perseids almost done, had some decodes on 50mhz earlier but just switched it all of..
to watch the Ladies Elite..
wx more kinder for them...
final road event,
It's been good.

We didn't do anything apart from the men's race..
a bit of a crisis this week but settling now...

Actual radio still the same, the bulk are doing Data....
three levels of licence, the Foundation is all anyone really needs to be honest...

I'd want the actual radio sets, physical knobs and dials. They'd be smaller than the ones I'd seen used, but knobs and dials at least.
You didn't get to Crow Road to watch it.
You think "Da Boss" is still as enthusiastic as when watching it live on the road. I see a bike purchase coming, possibly a tandem...
They'll be used to a bit o'bad weather.
General consensus seems to agree with you.

Hope its sorted itself out now.

I'd want a voice on the other end, not a computer.

For listening, they are far superior, trust me....

Mrs M has a dodgy ankle, never cycled in her puff..

Take a bit..
anyway base of ball on..
chilled apple juice calls..

I'm not doubting you, it's just I'd need the dials. Call me old fashioned if you want.

Extra effort on the tandem then. Nothing flat nearby?

1/8" or 3/16"?
Enjoy, to the victor the spoils...
Who's it calling!

T'is, and a damp one at that. Down these parts at least.

Yer hearing things...

We'd a good morning /early afternoon..
took the wee fella to the RSPB place at Loch Leven.
Saw an osprey, lots of swallows and woodland birds.
Did a dinosaur hunt over the site which was right up the wee fellas street..
Enjoyable day..
Left bending his mum's ear about it :laugh:
oh, and they do bat night walks....

Was updating a file in my electronic logbook..
and noted I've had 4,966 contacts this year...:ohmy:
I think I should cut down :scratch:

Muggy as 'eck today.....

Did they keep him or did you have to bring him home?
No Loch Leven Nessie equivalent is that you could leave him with. If/when he misbehaves.
Any of them found locally.
Will you be going on one of those night walks, recording equipment in hands, pockets, and anywhere else available.

How many last year, at this point?
Why, if you're doing no harm to the printer. Think of all that writing it's saved you doing.

Similar situation here, wet and it wasn't even raining at the time.

Nah, brought him back....
think I possibly boggered the microphone in my exceedingly cheap one but replacements are on their way....
Less than an hour to the reserve, 45 mins I think Mrs M said....
might consider the next one...

last year, I had 7,501...
I've slowed down lately as concentrating on other things...
next rain forecast here is Sat, lummie....

Ah well. There's always next time...
How'd you manage that?
Buy cheap, buy twice. Or even more...
Fancy name, a reserve. It lived up to its name I hope. Big game hunting and the like.

So less than last year, a lot less.
Multi tasking not your thing/forte.
Last forecast I heard, today an tomorrow were supposed to be wet. Sun is currently shining...

We were getting over 3/4" an hour, last night. With over an inch an hour early yesterday afternoon.
That's not been touched up in any way has it? Seen similar at either end of the day a few times, never during the day.
Note the white walls, almost "too white", not a good sign, weather wise. Whatever the weather men say.

Getting decked, give as good as you get!
Anything in mind as to what you'll do next?
