1928 sketch - NOT amateur radio
This sketch of Salcombe in Devon where I come from was drawn nearly 100 years ago. For those that know the place, it shows near the Ferry Inn.

20m FT8.
Most of the day, I have been on 20m FT8 RX with the indoor loop and the FT817ND. For the last few minutes (it is now 1542z) I have been on TX with about 2.5W to the indoor loop. 196 spots on RX and nothing yet of me on TX.
UPDATE 2212z: QRT.
Outside Peterborough Cathedral - NOT amateur radio
Peterborough Cathedral - NOT amateur radio
We went here today. It is where Catherine of Aragon is buried. It has a fine entrance.
ISS - SSTV
Although I have never tried, I understand there may be some SSTV from the ISS this afternoon (October 1st 2020). Not sure of the pass times. You can get free software for smartphones. I believe the transmissions are expected to be on 145.8MHz PD 120.
East Anglian skies - NOT amateur radio
Compared with some parts of the UK East Anglia is flat with few real hills. But we do get some great skies!
IC-7300 5 years old?
Southgate News has a piece on the impact of the IC-7300 on amateur radio. I find it hard to believe it is that old.
Solar data
September was very disappointing in terms of days with sunspots. Usually my favourite site for solar data updates its numbers early each month. It has just been updated.
