10m FT8 RX (Sunday)
At the moment, I am on 10m FT8 RX. Already, I have spotted 133 stations. If things are promising later, I shall QSY to 8m QRP FT8 TX.
Religions - NOT amateur radio
As a teenager I had quite a strong Christian faith. As I get older, my faith has waned.
If I was born in Iran I would probably have been an ardent Muslim and if I was born in Israel, I would probably have been a Jew.
No, I am puzzled why we so strongly believe "our" religion is the right one and our holy book the only true one.
11m amateur band
Until today, I had no knowledge that the 11m band was allocated to the amateur service in the USA prior to this being allocated to CB. I guess the nearest amateur bands today are 12m and 10m.
This appeared on the Amateur Radio Weekly email, with the original article being on Bas's blog at https://pe4bas.blogspot.com/ .
I was aware of the 5m band, but wonder what other allocations were made in the past? Possibly there were other odd allocations made locally such as the 73 kHz band in the UK at one time. In the UK a very few NoV permits were allocated near 9 kHz. I had one of them.
Some other countries had an 11m amateur band.

8m QRP FT8
As 10m F2 looked promising, I went on 8m QRP FT8 on 40.680 MHz. Sadly no 8m spots. I keep hoping the E-W F2 MUF will creep to 8m.
With the grandsons - NOT amateur radio
Both are young teenagers growing fast.
