Unrelated cross-posting: If you are a #sadham and want some happiness and positivity in your live: Noraly just started her next motorbike adventure. We are 3 episodes in. Puts a smile on your face! #HamRadio #AmateurRadio #Amateurfunk https://youtu.be/pMvfS5mbsiI

Getting better with self-care: Yesterday i clicked the do-not-recommend-this-channels-videos anymore button on YouTube for the very first time ever. Goodbye #sadham videos! #HamRadio

@HopelessDemigod Let me be #sadham this time: the manuals are useless for this. You're taking the output of a DAC through a variable gain stage (often with switchable impedance and drive level) through a stack of gain stages, each of which can add distortion/clipping/etc. It's hard to dial in.

Even then, the settings can be mangled by another app or an OS update.

Ooor I could just say "If you're using sound card modes, periodically check your signals with a receiver/websdr/friend. Thanks!"

@HopelessDemigod Was this meant to be helpful feedback to poor operators, or is it just whinging on the hashtag that people who are curious about ham radio will see? #sadham

Hm there seems to be a #sadham YouTube Channel now. My only wish is to end up with more subscribers than that channel. 😉 - While the guy has the one or the other valid point, it is really a quite depressing watch. #HamRadio #AmateurRadio

Walt here nails it. It had to be said.
New hams need to hear this message.
There’s LOTS great elmers/mentors out there both on social media and in local clubs. Don’t let the #sadham ruin #hamradio for you.

Reminder: it's #WinterFieldDay this weekend.

There's likely to be a bunch of interesting activity on the bands. In particular, people who would normally be on FT8 might be on JS8Call.

If you feel like making a few contacts, 'cuz it's been a while since you've done, go right ahead, jump in, say hello.

Do not let some all-caps #SadHam on Reddit dissuade you because if you participate in a contest & you don't care about the points & don't submit your log you're somehow awful.

You're not...
