#QST

2025-05-19

The #radcom letters page is always a nutter magnet, but this month—now that antennagate is over—we have the holy trinity of

✅ climate change denial;
#FT8 hate-whinging; and
✅ a healthy smattering of ‘sorry but…’.

Is #QST the same? Enquiring minds need to know!

When I used to listen to #QST in the 1980s, I remember an article about Gravity Gradient Modulation and another about an extremely powerful antenna made from a superconductor. I particularly remember being easily able to figure out the GGM article was bunk due to the references about using antimatter and describing how easy it was to obtain. #AmateurRadio #HamRadio

@DavidGoldfield

feel free to DM me when you hear updates from #SElVASBLV on the #BrailleSense & #SensePlayer. I got my SensePlayer this past summer & love it but #NLSBard crashes whenever I attempt to play an issue of #QST, which is a #HamRadio magazine. My brailleSense also does this as well but not as bad. I downloaded an audio issue of the magazine & it played just fine. Neither selvas or bard support know how to assist me. do you have any ideas?

BTW I got started by reading #QST at the library. Shout out to #MontclairPublicLibrary in Montclair NJ!

just arrived from .... weeks after it was available online (and weeks later than, historically, it would have arrived)... they used to appear more or less simultaneously; presumably this is Yet Another less-than-subtle attempt to get people not to read the printed version :-(

ARRL Logbook of the World Returns to Service

July 1, 2024

Effective 12:00pm ET / 16:00 UTC we will be returning Logbook of The World® (LoTW®) to service.

As work progressed on the network, some users encountered LoTW opening briefly during which some 6600 logs were uploaded. The logs were not processed until this weekend as we tested that the interface

Sensorimotor #polyneuropathy may be common in treated autoimmune thyroiditis, but, unlike in other causes of #neuropathy (e. g. #diabetes), it has a unique pattern in quantitative sensory testing (#QST) with low thresholds for mechanical and thermal pain.

doi.org/10.1038/s41598-024-631

Profile of quantitative sensory testing (QST) in autoimmune thyroiditis demonstrates low thresholds for heat and mechanical pain.

Frequencies of abnormal QST findings (A) and mean sensory profiles (B) in patients with treated AIT. (A) Each column gives the percentage of patients with abnormal findings for a particular quantitative sensory testing (QST) parameter (outside the 95% confidence interval [CI] of healthy controls). Positive values indicate positive sensory signs (hyperalgesia); negative values indicate negative sensory signs (hypoesthesia, hypoalgesia). Dashed lines show expected value for healthy controls (± 2.5%). #p < 0.05 compared to the expected value of a healthy population. (B) Sensory profiles of all AIT patients presented as mean z scores + 95% CI. Positive z scores indicate positive sensory signs (hyperalgesia); negative z values indicate negative sensory signs (hypoaesthesia, hypoalgesia). Dashed lines show 95% CI for healthy controls (− 1.96 < z < 1.96).

now charges extra for , but it arrives much later in the month than it did before they started charging. Increase the price, decrease the service... perhaps not a great plan for a members' organisation.

#QST:

I just received an email & proof showing #EA1DJ is an impostor Spanish amateur radio station.

José's friend (also a ham) is handling his amateur radio communications because, unfortunately, José is a silent key. Evidentially, someone is pirating José's call.

I worked the fake in September and sent a #QSL card - which is how I learned of the #fraud. Should you encounter this station, avoid it and, certainly, do not waste postage on sending something out.

I'm listening to this #RATPAC presentation on the #ARRL and I'm finding it all quite discouraging. All I know is this: I can't abide a CEO who thinks providing #blind members only #QST summaries rather than full articles like everyone else constitutes #accessibility diversity and inclusion. I'm still a member, but I think it is long past major organizational cultural change so that everyone feels included rather than left out. #AmateurRadio #HamRadio

#QST cover story. Slight #hamradio #electronics problem visible.

QST covet story showing a painfully poses group of people in front of a ham radio with equipmentZoom on ham radio. Missing power connections. And coax.

QST Magazine

It appears the #ARRL is busy stirring up a hornet's nest, they apparently are going to start charging their Life Members for paper copies of #QST... $48/year. Lots of those Life Members specifically subscribed assuming they would get the magazine for free. #hamradio

I just setup server rules, a welcome page, a #qst channel, etc. We actually look like a real Discord instance now!

Come join us! discord.gg/mkpqMEAS

...then, tell me whether the new-user process worked for you. Thanks for helping me test. 🙂
