This is in Worcester Cathedral. John was not a good king.
He died in 1216. He was immortalised in a children's poem by A.A.Milne.

10m 200mW WSPR (Thursday)
Since getting home, I have been on 10m QRP WSPR .
UPDATE 1621: So far today, 21 stations have spotted me.
Record temperatures
The UK has experienced the hottest June day since records began. Europe has seen similar record breaking temperatures.
Real climate change. I can think of someone who won’t agree. Wait until dust bowl conditions return in the USA.
UPDATE 1526z: Safely home. Journey was actually very trouble free.

Magic eraser - really free?
Earlier this week we were with a friend who could remove unwanted objects from a photo very easily. I think was an inbuilt AI feature in her phone.
I downloaded what I thought was the same only to find it was a VERY expensive 7 day free trial, which was useless so I deleted the app immediately.
Does anybody know of a good Apple app that really does this and is not a free trial?
QRP radios
There is a lot of choice these days on the market. The Elecraft KX2/3 are probably the best, but are very expensive especially if adding some of the accessories. They are also not waterproof.
There are other transceivers available.
In the end it comes down to budget and how you are going to use it.

End of an era
Later this week BBC Long Wave on 198kHz goes QRT for the last time.
We went by the Droitwich TX yesterday on the train. Sad, but inevitable I guess.
What will happen to the spectrum?
