CQ CQ CQ – Ham Radio Saturday
To all you Hams out there, some news.
I decided the get the General License exam under my belt, so I am studying diligently every day. I haven’t seen math like this since physics about 30 years ago.
Also, I received recently a Radiogram from a station, perhaps a priest ham’s, in Cincinnati. I’m not sure what to do with this, or how to respond properly according to good ham usage. I believe one of you mentioned responding through NTS the last time I got a radiogram, from Harrisburg, PA Alas, I didn’t. My bad. Maybe you hams out there should push me a little and break it down Barney style.
Also, I haven’t yet done anything with Echolink. Perhaps we should jump start that?
That’s that.
It still have almost no equipment, other than my little YAESU VX8-DR and a whip antenna, which one of you dear readers sent me some time ago from my wish list. I often say a prayer for the sender when I switch it on.

UPDATE:
Oh yes… I figured out how to pick up PSK31 with an app on my phone. Rather cool.
