Alas it seems I have more DIY jobs in store for me than I can achieve in a week.

@M0KHR what a career!

Currently listening to Public Service Broadcasting - and learning by chasing up the history of the public information films and archive footage they sample.

Things like why in the song "GO" sampling the Apollo 11 lunar landing we hear "1202 alarm..... 1201 alarm.... 1201 OK" leading into learning about lunar lander module computer memory management and crash recovery.

The kids will be away on an outward bound trip for a week. Does that mean finally time to play radio? Or will the need to catch up on DIY and house jobs be too much?

@tsherrygeo I've tended to use resonant antennas. Limits my band choice if I'm carrying a single band EFHW, but so light and convenient. I have a short BNC to BNC for use with an ATU.

There seems to be an attitude of "We must punish them". The press was upset that there may be functioning TVs on the barge. A minister ordered a colourful wall painted over lest it may be pleasant for children. It stinks of unpleasant dehumanising.

Though I have been known to crimp then solder, lately I crimp only.

The Tories in the UK are doing the same. I think they have the same advisors. We're seeing culture war campaigning around green issues, so I fear they see "anti-green" as an election strategy. They associate green with loss of freedom.

We have one of their older business machines and haven't seen the problem, though I do have the phone drivers which I use for mobile printing. I'd expect a business class machine to just work printing over WiFi as a PCL/PS device. Find its IP from its front panel and connect.
