So this year i want to learn how to Kayak and upgrade both my ham radio callsigns and perhaps even do a a SOTA activation. Learn my nano VNA. I also need to move my End Fed Antenna and run the co-ax to my bedroom and put a 2m antenna into the loft space.

The Lunar GNSS Receiver Experiment (LuGRE) will fly on Firefly Blue Ghost Mission 1 (BGM1) to demonstrate GNSS-based positioning, navigation, and timing at the Moon. LuGRE will build on the legacy of prior missions, including the initial experiments by #AMSAT OSCAR-40 (P3-D).
