Blue Tit has been roosting in the bird box most nights for the last week. It really doesn't like the loud fireworks. Looks very unsettled when they go off 🙁

Thats it. Finished building and testing my 3D printer by printing a tool to help remove other prints 🙂
Didn't know what to expect with such a complex kit that needed to be highly accurate in it's construction. The detailed instructions made this a very enjoyable build.

All tests ticked after a tiny amount of fettling. 3D printer ready to use. Now all I have to do is learn the software 🙂

Pictures from yesterday's SOTA activation of Corndon Hill (GW/MW-013). I had been trying out a new configuration of my "holiday" antenna, a 1/4 wave "linked" vertical for 20 and 17 metres. Best dx was to Japan on 17. Planned other hills but got invited to a friend's home and got distracted 🙂

The world seems very dark and grey at the moment but spring is not far away. Snowdrops are showing and daffodils won't be far behind.
