Over the last few weeks, my go-to site for quick #RBN spot lookups (https://skimmer.g7vjr.org/?dx=so5cw) was changed to summarize spots from different skimmers over time and bands, which I don't like. So I wrote my own small script which produces basically the old format: https://rbn.telegraphy.de/lite?dx=SO5CW
I know there are many more advanced ways to query RBN data, but I occasionally need it the "KISS" way. This tiny PHP script is also my entry for @hamchallenge week 46 ("Write an useful program")... #HC46S #hamradio

I just published source code for my new very lightweight, command-line-only alternative to WaveLogGate. Since I wrote it in Go and can't name things well, I am calling it WaveLogGoat. I'm now using it to link my IC-7300 to WaveLog

I do expect to later to binary releases of it for most any OS/architecture combination supported by Go, especially if someone steps up to test the hamlib / rigctld support that is completely untested right now!

I made some software rendering pixel fonts into audio and I TXed a #qrss signal. RXed my own signal from the grabbers, plus some common British beacons on 30m. Does this count as a threefer for the #hamchallenge? (44, 46 and 48).
