It's taken six months to get my DXCC satellite certificate, it just arrived an hour ago, no frame for it yet.
Pleased it finally got here.

First QSO for over a month with Nina DL2GRC, been off radio due to neck operation. Keen to be back but my main antennas were damaged in high winds. Using two Eggbeaters for now.

My Kenwood TH-D72E recently ceased to work in battery mode but powered up via the charge lead, the jack socket had failed. Found the part on Mouser and now my Sat handheld lives again. Not a job for the faint hearted.
