G8AGN/P and G0EWN/P achieved a 111km speech QSO on optical communications using 0.5W red LEDs and Fresnel lenses on April 6th 2011. Brilliant stuff.

Simple QRP projects, 10m, 8m, 6m, 4m, FT8, 160m, WSPR, LF/MF, sub-9kHz, nanowaves and other random stuff, some not related to amateur radio.
We live about 15km from airbases used by the USAF. In the last couple of days these appears to be an increase in air traffic.
