A good use of AI
AI frequently gets a bad press, but there are some things it is very good at.
Today I chanced upon a movie on YouTube of London in the 1700s. It was created using old black and white prints from that time.
The finished movie gives you a great impression of how it must have been.
Geminid meteor shower
This meteor shower peaks this weekend. I expect it will lead to enhanced MS propagation on 10m, 8m, 6m, 4m and 2m.

Last year she performed in front of UK royalty in Westminster Abbey and this year she is in the Nutcracker at the Royal Ballet in Covent Garden, London at the Royal Opera House. She makes us very proud!

Ukraine peace?
According to this video, around 60% of people in the USA believe the USA should be standing behind (my understanding) Ukraine to counter the Russians whereas the peace plan put forward by President Trump appears to favour Russia and not what the majority in the USA want.
We all want peace, but it would appear we don't want a sell-out to President Putin. In my view simply appeasing Putin is not the answer.
From an outsider's perspective, President Trump seems more focused on making deals to make himself even richer than safeguarding democracy? This is how it appears, although I accept I may be wrong.
Micro80
This was my Micro80 transceiver built many years ago. From this the famous Pixie transceiver was developed. It is on my main website.
