1·1 month agoCould be that ARRL was down then. All links work for me.
Yea in a community you only see the community info. The “official” sidebar is only on the main feed
What do you see and what link are you using? On my Mac in safari at lemmy.radio I can see it. Not in a community
The general sidebar on the right has some links for how to get into amateur radio.
Not a lemmy dev so I’m not the go to on issues. I had that issue on Firefox though.
I feel like every year since I’ve been licensed and an ARRL member, I’ve become less enthused by the ARRL. To the point where this may be my last year as a member.
Also a thought: I use a few ARRL links in our side bar I wouldn’t mind changing to non-ARRL links. Open to suggestions.
8·2 months agoIt’s a blast to play. Took about 6 tries to finish the game. The difficulty spike at the end is kinda crazy. Definitely recommend getting it before/if Nintendo takes it down.
I do enjoy my morserino-32. It was an educational experience to build and it has definitely helped my cw comprehension
Ha I have almost the same story. Grandfather talking to people on his radio all day, missing dinner, and my grandma getting mad at him. He’s one of the reasons I got into ham radio! Thanks for sharing your story!
That urge for a new radio for me looks like comparison hypnosis or rabbit holing.
I’ll see someone post on here/mastodon about a new radio or technology. Then I start checking out the specs. Then I start checking the specs of similar items. On to deciding if I need the newest model though because it has a few more features that I “need”. Oh wait, the other thing has a better this or that.
4 hours later, I have my credit card out and about to check out and then it dawns on me:
Oh wait, do I actually need this?
…yes. Of course. SWIPE
Also the 7300 is great. Congrats and nice find in Japan.
It’s both. SK, Stop Keying, is used in CW (morse) whenever a station is done transmitting. SK is also Silent Key, but you’ll rarely hear the abbreviation over voice or CW.
