Woo-hoo! I setup HamAlert last night and loaded it with about 15 callsigns of friends or people I was to work. First hit just came in! AA7EE @the-rugster.bsky.social - now I just wish I was home to try to work you!

Setting up a new iPad is kind of cathartic. Clean slate!

I spent some time last night shooting the Milky Way up in Acadia National Park, and dammit if I don’t already feel hooked on it! I’ve dabbled with it in the past, but recently took a course on it and applied those principles. Can’t wait to edit and print some of them!

Two nights ago, I made my first (EVER!) contacts on 12m. Licensed for almost 40 years and not one QSO until the other day. I’ve now worked about 25 countries and 10 states, all a mix of CW, SSB, and FT8. Fun times!

@duhproject.bsky.social A week after posting a note for you on Mastodon, I remembered THIS is the place you hang out on! Quick question: is Flippy Drive available now, or is it still pre-order. Their website is pretty confusing, but I heard you comment on it in a recent Pixel Gaiden podcast. Thanks!

Not looking forward to spending ~$750 for a new photo printer, all because Epson discontinued the ink for my 20-year old printer. Pfft!

Starting to get a bit more active here on Bluesky. Lots of connections from other sites are coming over, making this a more engaging community. Guess I should update my profile photo and bio, huh?
