Relaxed #POTA like @N4JAW and @F4LUB in DE-0394 Elbtal zwischen Schöna und Mühlberg Natura 2000: 21 QSOs testing a new antenna setup. #brompton #HamRadio #ParksOnTheAir #Amateurfunk #qrp #mtr3b #morsecode #biking #Saxony

I’m currently testing a new #EFHW for #40m, #20m, #15m and #10m. On some #SOTA summits there is not enough space to put up a full 20 m long antenna. So I have designed this one which is like a linked #EFHW, but you’re able to remove the outer half and get an antenna of just about 10 m length (for the #20m and #10m bands). #HamRadio #SummitsOnTheAir #ParksOnTheAir #Amateurfunk #mtr3b #morsecode #hiking #mountains

I've been spending time with my #qrp #EFHW #endfedantenna & #qrp #ft817 #qrpradio lately. Made the perfect throw up over 40' for today's #amateurradio #hamradio #pota #parksontheair activation operating CW #morsecode

From time to time, old radios need readjustment: My 25 year old #Elecraft K1 was misaligned about 300 Hz. No big deal - the only bad thing is that you have to take it almost completely apart to reach the trimmer capacitors for realignment. #HamRadio #Amateurfunk #qrp #elecraftk1 #morsecode #vintage

#AmateurRadio #HamRadio is a common bond that breaks through language and cultural barriers to form lifelong relationships. #POTA #parksontheair has only enhanced it. Like my CW #Morsecode 3 yr. comradery with Scott #KW4NJA @medic1027

🔑 Oh, look! A riveting guide to turning household junk into CW keys! 🚽🔧 Because who doesn't need a toilet brush morse code transmitter for those urgent SOS signals? 🤷‍♂️📡 Welcome to the cutting edge of impractical innovation! 🛠️🤣

The one thing I dislike about #POTA activations operating CW is the occasional operator whose “fist” is so poor, that the dits and the dahs are virtually indistinguishable from one another… requiring a dozen back-and-forth exchanges with lots of “??” from my side just to figure out their damned callsign. 😡

Failure was not an option. Bound and Determined to activate #parksontheair #POTA site US-7956 using #MorseCode CW with 0.5 Watts into sloper EFHW. Thanks to the hunters it took 17 minutes to capture 13 before increasing power to 5 Watts. #AmateurRadio #HamRadio is MAGICAL!

The name „Aussichtspunkt Püschmannhöhe“ suggests a vantage point. But I wasn’t rewarded with nice views today: just trees, mosquitoes and difficult band conditions on #20m in #POTA DE-0849 Täler in Mittelsachsen Natura 2000. The highlights were a contact with @F4LUB and two #ODX QSOs to A6. #HamRadio #ParksOnTheAir #Amateurfunk #qrp #qcxmini #morsecode #Saxony

7 back to back QSOs in 40 minutes on 17 m band this evening. Enjoyed every moment of it. There were more stations QRX but I had to go QRT for the day. Its great to unwind working stations on Morse at the end of a day at work.

Ah yes, the riveting tale of the TTY—because who doesn't yearn for a deep dive into the 19th century's gift to computing? 📞🔗 Spoiler: It's like explaining Morse code to a smartphone. 🤦‍♂️

Absolutely Insane. Got #pota #parksontheair site activated with CW #morsecode on 40 meters in 10 minutes with 0.5 watts from #ft817 #qrpradio into sloper #EFHW up 35'. #amateurradio #hamradio is AMAZING

I didn't forget battery today BUT will try activating #hamradio #amateurradio #pota #parksontheair #QRPp at 0.5 watts with #ft817 #qrpradio into #EFHW antenna CW #morsecode

When you forget your 12v 3Ah #Bienooo battery, this is what 2.5 watts will give you during an Early Bird #POTA #parksontheair #MorseCode CW #amateurRadio #HamRadio activation using the internal #FT817 battery into an #EFHW

Left my #Bieonno battery at home. Glad #ft817 internal battery was charged. Used at 2.5 watts to make 38 contacts CW #morsecode contacts across the U.S. for a sunrise #hamradio #amateurradio #pota #parksontheair activation in spite of early a.m. #SolarFlares and changing #hfbandconditions

Hi #amateurradio folks, I'd love to follow more of you because i'm really interested in this hobby. As a #Blind person, I'm just glad this hobby is one where being blind isn't new, I've experienced this through other people who've told me that that's how it is which is really nice because I really like just being a part of a community, also, I'd love to meet people who operate #MorseCode stations because I'd love to learn CW for myself even though its not a license requirement. Anyway, I'd love to make more friends in the space so feel free to follow me. #HamRadio #AmateurRadio
