Watching the Winter Olympics and want to see the type of sports we trained for as kids. Building the tallest snowman, sliding down a hill on a piece of plastic or competitive snowball fights. Come on Olympic committee, get it together!

Chris, lost my dad two years ago to cancer. Likewise, having someone to call for advice is the biggest loss. Hold onto each precious memory.

Sounds like an ai spelling mistake.

True dat, as the youth (who should never be allowed more than 10 watts on any band) say.

SHAME, I would have expected one moan about "the issue with amateur radio is that we don't build valve transmitters any more".

Oh please tell me there’s a grumpy letter about FT8 killing ham radio or that you can get your license by buying cornflakes.

Right my fellow radio hams. As I cannot find the mobile VHF/UHF antenna I'm after. Looking for your pick of mobile antenna, must be black, and take 60watts.

Trying to find a Comet SBB-5 Mobile Antenna (BLACK) in stock in the UK is impossible.

You know you are a radio ham when new technology arrives in your lecture room and your first thought is 'Can I get an SDR to work on this?'

After 30 years of marriage I am starting to question if I even know her!

Looking in a draw I stumbled upon this which I brought back from the RSGB convention. Apparently it wasn't a 'propper gift' according to my wife. Who knew?

I just don't get the feeling of entitlement that some feel towards anyone who did not take the same exam that they took.

I see you took the USA exam, something I would like to do, sadly I don't have an American address.

It’s interesting that we still talk and ask people to remember obsolete things still. If you want to see somewhere that’s done something different look to the IRTS. Spot on course.

Because some want it to be elite!

You are the chosen one! But only if you took your licence in 1920

Is it possible to exchange details of your medical ailments on 160m FT8? I thought it was strictly on AM.

A letter sent into Ham Radio Today, January 1983. Oh how times have not changed.
