I'm apparently a moron who can't figure out the FCC website for filing for an amateur radio club (605-C). I already have an FRN and account with CORES. I'm trying to file the 605-C for a new club. The FCC Form 605 [...] social.mauve.haus/@mauvehed/statuse…

This thread. We’ve lost something special that was there in the early Internet. Some of us are fighting to keep the pockets of communities alive and under self-control, but it’s not the beauty it used to be. misc.name/@scanlime/117349882943844…

Upgraded the 4.5ft U/VHF antenna to a 17 footer. It still looks insane to me. It’s so damn tall! I already made my new record for a simplex contact. I can’t wait for South Side Simplex on Tuesday! #hamradio #amateurradio

My wife has decided to make the cat a cozy spot on her desk while she works. Apparently this is how you get the cat to not sleep on your keyboard. #cats

Any #HamRadio and #AmateurRadio nerds have recommendations on a DIY kit for a CW oscillator? Just something I can more easily echo back to myself while practicing. I’d like to build my own. I’m debating even designing my own since it should be a fairly simple circuit.

You think Trump can’t possibly become any worse of a monster, and then you find out his administration is sending America’s wild horses to slaughterhouses. What the Trump administration is doing to our wild horses is absolutely disgusting. 🤮 There has to be a line.

This goes up there for the greatest coins I’ve ever been gifted. I saw this before #DEFCON34 and was head over wheels in love with it. Due to both being an amateur radio operator and as someone on the autistic spectrum. This communities creations are amazing! #Hackers #AuDHD #HamRadio #DC710

As is typical, I got very few photos from my last minute trip to DEF CON. What I did get was an incredible amount of hugs and support from so many friends. I am eternally grateful to you all, especially this difficult year. Thank you more than I can ever truly express.
