New toy arrived today...

QRP Labs QMX multiband CW and data modes transceiver, as designed by physicist Hans Summers.

I had previous kit from Hans' - QDX multiband data modes transceiver, and two QCX single-band transceivers for CW (morse). This new kit rolls all into one. I shall test this tomorrow with an end-fed half-wave antenna for 40-10m.

The electronics design of Hans' transceivers is elegant and minimal, and their performance excellent.

Anyone who watches this video or is well-informed on the details: what is your opinion of RM-11953 & whether or not hams & the ARRL ought to oppose this proposal? I’m interested in your take on this. ~ See post above for link. ~ “The most coherent and well-reasoned commentary I’ve heard on this topic yet. ~ ‘RM-11953 means the end of HF. Every ham radio operator should oppose it.’”

Strong radiofax signal from Boston Coast Guard (NMF) on 6340.5 kHz. If interested, fldigi easily decodes. Remember to tune 1.7 kHz below

What a difference a day makes! Region 3165 & 3153 fire big flares causing R2-level . Growth of 3165 (& 3163 not shown) continues so more disruptions are expected. operators, users on Earth's dayside, expect disruptions. risk rises now.

@rvawonk If crisis management agencies have become this dependent on Twitter for effective management, maybe the deeper story is why there is such a widespread complacency and reliance on this single tool for effective communication...especially a tool which relies on so many critical nodes: internet availability, cloud service up-time, etc. We managed disasters long before Twitter..maybe its time to revisit and new tech

Got the tower project completed! A lot of help from local hams, and a lot of great purchases from @DXEngineering@twitter.com @JKAntennas@twitter.com @HamRadioOutlet@twitter.com Green Heron Engineering Alfa Spid and many others. The @IcomAmericaInc@twitter.com radios work great!
