RE: @Khrys@mamot.fr

If I knew there was value in my useless Slack messages and the thousands of nonsense Jira tickets, I'd have written more, then sold them years ago.

So many GIFs and emojis.

According to listing on the Jungle shop website, the items in this photo are a 13.8V 2A DC power supply.

Someone, or something, is making a mistake!

@N9DRB@qth.social Looking at the QRPLabs webpage for the tracker, they don't specify. I can't think of why you couldn't use whatever you wanted. Most commonly SMA/BNC would be used for VUHF. Depending - you could solder it to a case-mounted antenna connector.

Did you know NASA Ground Control will be tracking Artemis II via the digital mode FT-4 once they go into earth orbit!

The weak signal condition digital protocol makes it perfect for this purpose.

FT-4 cycle time of 6 seconds is less than FT-8s 15. Combined with the approx. 2.5 second round trip time each transmission will take approx. 8.5 seconds.

That's pretty amazing for Amateur Radio!!

THE LOCAL STACK

I Verified My LinkedIn Identity. Here's What I Actually Handed Over.

I wanted a blue badge on LinkedIn. To get it, I gave a US company my passport, my face, and my biometric data. Then I read the fine print.

@debcha@mastodon.social Hi Deb, I'm interested in your new book. Do you know when/if it'll be available in paperback? Those hardbacks are too hefty for me. Good luck with the book. Pretty small topic, eh? :P

@ole@chaos.social that looks very interesting. It would be great if it could be translated! (Not that I'm expecting you to. Just that it'd be fascinating to listen and understand.)
