Wicken Fen walk - NOT amateur radio

My wife created this collage of our walk yesterday. Very wild!! 

It was a lovely morning unlike now which is wet and windy.

Saturday plans

 I shall probably carry on with my 500uW tests on 10m WSPR and go on 8m QRP FT8 later.

Wicken Fen walk - NOT amateur radio

This morning, we walked to Wicken Fen. We like this as it is an enjoyable walk and we can get a snack half way before walking back. 

At this time of year we were not expecting to see any boats, so imagine our surprise.

630m QRP WSPR (Friday)

For the first day in a few days, I am back on 630m QRP WSPR with my 10mW ERP from the earth-electrode "antenna" in the ground.  I have still not got around to optimising the match. This is on my "to do" list.

With WSPRnet not working, no spots will be uploaded to the internet, so I hope it gets fixed soon.

8m QRP FT8 (Friday)

 My 2.5W and dipole have been on for several hours. No spots at 1412z.

500uW 10m WSPR tests continued (Friday)

Yet again, WSPRnet seems to be having a bad day and is not working.  As WSPRrocks takes its spots from WSPRnet, there is nothing to see!

Sunspots - Friday December 8th 2023
