Nice.  I worked him on 7/9/21 on 14.225.  No shaming back then!

I pissed a guy off in TX the other night. He was complaining the lake he lived on was down to 10%. Asked what kind of lake, he said drinking water and irrigation.
I kind of mentioned that would happen trying to grow crops in the desert. His reply was short and he left.

As far as shaming ANYONE on ham radio for something they have NO control of, it's just plain wrong.

He didn't order troops into Ukraine. Putin did. Most likely he wanted no part of it.

I go on the air to get RID of religion, politics and all that goes with it. It is the one place I go to be an ambassador of goodwill.

Concur.  If you don't want to talk to someone of a particular country because of the country's actions....don't.  

Shaming or harassment is not what Ham is about.  Shame on those people who did it. Ham is about building person to person goodwill.

IIRC that's what's-his-face and he doesn't QSL.

Fuck him, the horse he rode in on and anybody that looks like him.

I could be wrong. If I am then DON'T fuck him OR the horse he rode in on OR anybody that looks like him. In fact, don't fuck anyone.

Of course if that IS him, you know what to do.

Not DX, but there is a POTA station at K-0149 (Kenai National Wildlife Refuge) on 14.328.



eta: Almost forgot... I was using a quickie 20-meter dipole I put up 5 minutes earlier.  It's not even a good match (Yay, LDG AT-100ProII ), but it worked.

eta 2: nvm.  He just got run off the frequency by a Net.

Slavko! The Voice of Slovenia!

Him or Janez.

I guess my understanding of digital modes is all wrong.

To the best of my knowledge I have never worked a station while either I or the other op were asleep, regardless of the mode involved.  I guarantee my radio has never transmitted while I'm asleep since I always turn it off.

Also how about all the guys running "Remote Stations" hundreds or thousands of miles from where they actually are?  Different countries?  Different continents?  No problem.  All they need is an internet connection.
