Hairbrush maintenance: somewhat overdue. Needs to be replaced, really.

Yes, that’s the cat’s water bowl in the background. Her preferred location! 🤷‍♀️

I’ve had my Extra license for 20 years but have been busy with other things, so a refresher course is probably prudent.

My worst meal in October.

Stale homemade bread, sprayed with oil, plain kidney beans straight from the can, spices.

Disabled and working full time: just not that easy. Sometimes I’m just too tired and hurting too much to cook.

2 meter antenna update: upgraded to low loss KMR240 feed cable from antenna to preamp. Added 33ft of lossy cable after the preamp so I could relocate the Raspberry Pi to the other side of the room. But took out the 10dB attenuator, so I think it will be ok.

Yep, time to replace these.

When you can use ALL the words in Duolingo, it’s much more entertaining than the correct answer. 🤭

Looks like I'm going to be trying to repair the speakers on my gaming PC this weekend. 🤬

For the uninitiated: these are capacitors from the power supply to my Logitech computer speakers. They're supposed to have flat tops. Domed tops = bad capacitors = sound is cutting out.

... 🤷‍♀️

I need some more studying to understand ALL this, but I gather it's "okay" for the 2 meter band. This is a fan dipole with a second leg for the air band, which is probably going to get cut down for use on the 70 cm band instead, as my cross dipole works surprisingly well for airplanes.

My new fancy pants antenna works a lot better now that the LNA isn’t plugged in backwards. 🤦‍♀️

(LNA: low noise amplifier, connected very close to the antenna, before the connection to the radio.)
