Did you know there's a website that can tell you what radio stations you might be able to pick wherever you are in the US, as well as the signal's approximate strength based on location?

@loriemerson WEFAX is still transmitted by #NOAA for marine interests. If you have an MF/HF receiver, there is free software to decode. Let me dig up a ref. #radionerd
Really cool thread about flight tracking, inspired by Space Karen.

Ein bisschen #radionerd-Content: Die gute Nachricht des gestrigen Tages:

So I'm flipping through the manual for my new toy (I know, right?!?!) and I stumbled over an underreported feature that obsoletes something in my comms chain for D-STAR.
I am blown away!
Having to acclimate to my new maidenhead grid square. Seeing all kinds of crazy new stuff from this QTH.
Lots of old people with nothing to do means lots of check-ins on the 2m Net. Not the worst thing in the world, but dang. Long Net.
Hamvention 2020 is cancelled as of last night. I'm super bummed out. I was really looking forward to going this year.
Now I will have to sate my gear-whoring ways via other means. This might get...ugly.
FINALLY getting onto my Wednesday night 2m net. It's been forever!
How do I even find a ham radio instance on Mastodon?
