My #cqww #hamradio weekend: 1127 CW contacts to 115 countries, claimed score 870,928 in SO-LP (A).

N6MJ on the Canary Islands set a new world record with 12708 contacts in SO-HP, followed by KL9A on Madeira with 11343 contacts. It was fun to watch the online scoreboard.

I already knew that Morse Runner was open sourced some years ago, but I only now discovered this Linux (and Mac) port: https://github.com/fritzsche/MorseRunner

Some poking around with fpc and lazarus later it's now available in #Debian!

I admit that I was lagging 5+ years behind on sending #hamradio QSL cards, mostly because the task "if I am sending a card to someone anyway, let's include all the other QSOs with them on the same card" sounded hard to express in SQL. (It is not.)

The #hamchallenge was a good excuse to finally fix that problem. Now I have both paper and electronic QSL cards, and the first bunch of 1000 cards is on the way to the press. HC01S!
