Oh.
Colour me impressed - just installed #Ubuntu Desktop on an old PC, it seems to have worked out how to print and scan with my networked HP device without any of the shenanigans needed on a new Windows PC, no need to install a nasty client, no having to log on to a cloud somewhere.
Note to self: don't get bullied into changing your windows password when you're not paying attention.
I have neither radios not aerials but I have computers and a decent broadband connection. So I can mess around with stuff like this without bothering anyone.
Nice little explainer from BBC Weather for those new to #spaceweather #hamr #hamradio https://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/feeds/60232367
Anyone for a spot of meteor scatter? #meteor

Off to join my friends at M6T for the #cqww CW contest this weekend. If you hear us on 15m there's a 50% chance it will be me pushing the buttons.

It's a bit wet, much of the outside work is done but still need wellies and waterproofs. Hopefully Monday will be fine as we put the station to bed for the winter.

73 es GL!

You know you've been on a coding spree when the number of open Stack Overflow tabs means you can't read the text on any of them..... #hamradio #python #hacking
If you missed this morning's launch of the uncrewed #NASA #Artemis1 test flight to the #Moon 🌖 you can watch it on YouTube. The video here picks up at just over 3 hours into NASA's coverage, at T-30 seconds until launch. https://youtu.be/CMLD0Lp0JBg?t=11795
