Amateur radio, Nix. Licensed and inactive for 17 years and giving it another go. Berkshires (MA). I was AC1OF for about a month, and KI4VCD for like 17 years. Find my other masto account if you want to chat Nix.

I’ll probably unfollow folks that are talking a lot about software dev / infra / things I do at work. Nothing personal :) this is just for fun over here.

Ok I mean I know 80m has a reputation, but TIL once you turn 70(?) you’re not expected to get colonoscopies anymore.

Anyone want a WWV bumper magnet?
