The day I threw away the rapid charger I found the radio again. One of my favorite uses is as a simple broadcast FM receiver when I’m on my bike. It was like a little slice of Christmas when I found that lost radio in her car.

I haven’t figured out how to dupe Meghan into getting licensed. She is a hard nut to crack. I think she is proud to be a non-ham. I hope to have a licensed son or two!

I just realized the easiest way to get my attention would be to link the gateway to 001C. They could do that with ircddb remote.

The idea was that I would have a button somewhere at home that sends a command to the RPI to play a prerecorded file through the hotspot.

I joined GARA so that I could support the club’s D-Star repeater system.

Today I heard some local hams on 146.58Mhz simplex. They were talking about their 5 ghz mesh network. I think Iā€™m going to reach out to them and try to build a node for the n…[Read more]
