He’s on 433 MHz 😂

I also use Meshtastic on 868 MHz. Saw this yesterday:

Happy Christmas everyone 🎅🏻

This sounds great! Will be ready 👍🏻

This is amazing 👍🏻

Never had a problem with my MG 4. Fantastic car & appears fully quiet for Ham Radios.

Sun data is down. Good to see the ISS going overhead a few times mid-day today, just too wet to go outside & talk to it 😔🌧️💦

15m band is wide open. Some great contacts via FT8 mode 👍🏻

Many new stations worked 🎉

Magic 😂

Love the radio, too 👍🏻

No problem!

I used to have a similar antenna in Whitstable, years ago. Regularly spoke across to the Netherlands, including the Rotterdam repeater (x-polarised to their RX). Little activity in my part of the UK then. Now I have SSB capability, I don’t have the antenna! Just a vertical. Just love new housing!

Where’s the Mint Cake? 😂

Please always ask for help. Also, it really won’t take 6 months to get there 😀

It got it from the photo, but that was mirrored & so does not show me right-handed. Well noticed 👍🏻

I gave ChatGPT 4.o a photograph of me sitting & asked it to make a drawing from that, sitting at a desk, with a transceiver on top. It doesn’t look like me (not a problem) but AI’s idea of a transceiver made me chuckle. Still, what do you expect for 6 seconds work? 😂

Ah, that’s a good point! Silly me. Still, sounds very interesting. Will search out some links. Thanks.

Yep. Same here.

I find mine runs down if I leave the battery attached when not in use.

Are there many using 439MHz in your area? I think there might be one or two near here. Everyone else is on 868MHz in this area. Growing by the week. Interested in your experiences.

DMR node?

Good to know 😂

What is that app, Andy?

Found a radio at Stanmer House today. I wonder if it covers D-Star, C4FM or DMR modes?

A bit early, folks, but ………

Congrats Nick 🎉
