    Yea, when I do FD, I don't get on the air much in the big groups.
    I do tech support, because I can, and they can't.

    Seriously, I like putting it up, packing it up, and keeping it going.

    I'm in MN for a family emergency. It's going OK.
    Might visit the WØBU group in Burnsville.

    I got invited.

    I've got multiple invites to the clubs and groups in the area - but let's see how I fare with the QRP efforts here. Got a narrow SSB filter for the '130V in the mail this morning. It's in the rig, both of the transceivers I'm going to use have been aligned and checked...we're ready to go.

    The setup begins. I won't make it out to the site until tomorrow AM.

    Now that I have a DSLR this year, planning on taking a lot of photos when I'm not scrambling madly to cover from lightning.

    Might be a washout this year for my area unless the FD ops sit in their cars or lean twos.

    KC3AM 3A DE

    Won't be there until some time in the afternoon. Just in time for the rain, which be a major downpour by Saturday night.

    If that gets too bad, then maybe a bit of S&P as KJ3N 1E DE.

    The area crew has a barn and 5 HF operating positions planned. That is, if the rain stays away. We're all hoping...

    As I head to work to kick off a major project I just landed, I'll just wish everyone good luck!
    QAnon / GOP Republicans mentally lack the necessary intelligence to even tell a decent lie (Ex: A cabal of Satanic, cannibalistic pedophiles run a global child sex trafficking ring and conspired against former President Dotard dRUMPf during his term in office... Jewish space lasers, etc.). What in the hell makes anyone believe these melon heads can actually govern?

    Same here (except for the part about landing a major project). Good luck, all y'all!
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    I was going to our club's sight, but it is too damn wet, with flash flood watch and so on. Went there last night helped with antennas.
