Future plans

Already, I am thinking about 2026. Sunspots and solar activity should still be good although declining. 

My instincts are to go mainly on 10m QRP FT8, although I shall go on 6m FT8 in which case I shall go on 10m WSPR wth my 500mW beacon that does not need the PC at the same time. 

Still tempted by 8m, TX,  although I think most of the activity would be in the Es season. If I was to reapply for a TX permit, I would time it to coincide with the Es season, so leave any new application until late March, so the permit would be in place in time for the Es season. I may decide not to bother.

Thursday plans

 Later I hope to go on 6m 5W FT8 and 500mW WSPR .

9 Nov 2025

Monday plans

At the moment I am not sure about Monday. I may try 23cm beacon hunting with my SDR receiver or even lower power on 10m FT8. If there is thunder around I may just stay off the air.

31 Oct 2025

Friday plans

As I am out this morning, I cannot be on until after lunch. As we may get some thunder, I may not go on today. 

28 Oct 2025

Tuesday plans

 Probably 500mW 10m WSPR TX and 5W 6m FT8 again later.

23 Oct 2025

Thursday plans

 Later I hope to go on 6m 5W FT8 and 10m 500mW WSPR as long as the thunder stays away. It could come our way later.

9 Oct 2025

Thursday plans

 Later, I expect to continue with 6m 5W FT8 and 500mW 10m WSPR.

3 Oct 2025

Friday plans

 After shopping I plan to go on 10m 500mW WSPR and 6m 5W FT8 again.

2 Oct 2025

Thursday plans

 Probably I shall go on 10m 500mW WSPR and 6m 5W FT8 again, most likely after lunch.

5 Sept 2025

Saturday plans

 Now we are back home I plan to go on 6m QRP FT8 and 10m QRP WSPR tomorrow. 

9 Aug 2025

Saturday plans

 Today I shall probably go on 10m 500mW WSPR and 6m 5W FT8. 

31 May 2025

Saturday plans

 Probably the same as yesterday i.e. 10m QRP WSPR and 6m QRP FT8.

19 May 2025

Monday plans

These past few days I have been on 10m WSPR and 6m FT8.  I am unsure what to do today. 

15 Apr 2025

Tuesday plans

  Probably 10m 500mW WSPR and 6m QRP FT8 later.

18 Mar 2025

Tuesday plans

 Shortly I expect to go on 10m QRP WSPR and 6m QRP FT8.

24 Feb 2025

Monday plans

 Shortly, I intend to try 10m QRP WSPR TX and 8m QRP FT8 TX.  The solar forecast is quite promising.

10 Feb 2025

Monday plans

 At the moment I plan to go on 10m QRP FT8 with the IC705. If I go on 8m QRP FT8, I shall try 10m QRP WSPR, although going on 8m is far from certain

6 Feb 2025

Thursday plans

Today, I have several things to do: 

1. Go on 10m QRP WSPR (already on).

2. Mend the PL259 plug on my 8m antenna (it came unsoldered).

3. Try 10m QRP FT8 with the IC705.

4. Set up GB3PI on my IC-705 and check access.

11 Jan 2025

Saturday plans

Today, I expect to try 10m QRP using my 500mW stand-alone beacon and 8m FT8 QRP TX using my QMX+ where the output is about 2W to a low dipole.

26 Nov 2024

Tuesday plans

After breakfast I expect to be on 10m QRP WSPR and 6m QRP FT8 .
