 As I am meeting an old school friend in Cambridge later, I do not expect to be active until very late.

As we have visitors until late tomorrow, I am being "sociable", so I have gone completely QRT with everything turned off. This mea...

Tonight, I have gone QRT and will not be on 472kHz WSPR overnight.

Most nights I QSY from 10m FT8 to 630m (472kHz) WSPR. Tonight I have decided not to go on any band. My rig and PC have been on continuously ...

After the excitement today on 2m FT8 and the 70cm activity contest this evening, I am now QRT on all bands. At this moment I am unsure what ...

I went QRT at 2000z. Overnight I am not active on any bands RX or TX.

At about 2015z I pulled the big switch and went QRT on all bands. I should be back on later tomorrow. 2m FT8 was great and there was even so...

The big plug has been pulled and everything disconnected until the morning. Yet again I am "blown away " by what can be spotted on...

At around 2000z I decided to go QRT and disconnect antenna, PC and PSU. Although there were no signs of storms, I had spotted very little si...

The weather forecast for the next few days is bad. Rain (heavy at times) is forecast before things might improve on Thursday. There is a ch...

As the Es seems to have stopped, I have gone QRT on 10m and 6m. I should be on at breakfast time in the morning.

The latest weather forecast show the greatest storm risk here is now 1300-1400z, so I have decided to go QRT and disconnect everything incl...

As the Es seems to have stopped, I went QRT on all bands at 2110z. Depending on where the storm risk is, I hope to be on again tomorrow. At ...

Everything is now off until after breakfast tomorrow.  As yet, I've not decided what band to try on Friday.  Maybe 10m JT65 or WSPR? It ...

Tonight, overnight, I am not on any band. I went QRT on 10m JT65 about an hour ago and should be back in the morning around breakfast time.

In a few minutes I shall be going QRT on all bands. 10m has been disappointing again and just G0LRD again on 6m. David is not too far away.
