Had mine for about a year now. Still haven’t powered it on. Still on the same shelf.

Curious to know any fellow hams who are experimenting with APRS over LoRa. What's the coverage like in the area you live in? Looks like we are quite lucky here in Cambridgeshire. #lora #aprs #hamradio

Phoar…..

I really wanted this kind of stuff in the 90s. Finally achieved it in 2025.

Someone game me 2 dead Yamaha MU50 tone generators today. I now have 1 working MU50! Really good sound quality! Faulty 7805 and an iffy power socket.

Not used this version of Windows in a long time. Using a 486 PC to run it.

LoRa APRS T-Deck built and ready for some testing. Let’s see if the generic quad lock attachment works! #lora #aprs #hamr #data #lilygo

Spending a long weekend in Tallin, Estonia.

Going on a day trip to Helsinki in Finland today.

So that’s 2 new countries I have visited added to the list.

20000mAh power bank from Amazon. Let’s see how it performs.

That’s the Amstrad PC1512 fully working with a couple of additions. Never had the original mouse for it. I can now use a USB mouse.

Has SD card storage for hard disk and floppy disk emulation. Ad-lib audio.

When you see this Amazon ad and the first thing you see is a LAN adapter with a BNC connection.

Black on green looks weird.

Let’s hope the power regulator swap and ZX-WESPI install don’t break it!
