Jim "Ham on a Bike"
Radio/TV Retiree, AE Class, #HamRadio #AmateurRadio Space WX, Activate/Hunt #POTA, chase #SOTA, "RELATED CONTENT ONLY" I will BLOCK ALL OTHER TYPES OF FOLLOWERS
- Likely my last post on @bsky.app @safety.bsky.app @support.bsky.team For me, Social Media has gone off the rails. Not supplying any of the information requested below. It's been FUN.
- Here's showing not to let a #SpaceWeather #SpaceWX forecast sway you from doing a #POTA #parksontheairair activation. A Index (27) K Index (6) Solar Winds 429+ at 1000 UTC over U.S. today but here's a sample of the strong #AmateurRadio #HamRadio #MorseCode CW signals received youtu.be/mSjX5m2MWp4
- Minimal #hamradio #amateurradio #qrp #qrpradio setup for what #spaceweather said was a dismal morning. NOT for today's #40m #amateurradio #hamradio #cw #morsecode #parksontheair #pota activation. Can't always accept a #spacewx #solarcycle25 forecast.

- In the words of PFC Gomer Pyle, "Surprise, Surprise, Surprise". Yes, there are times when I operate SSB for my #HamRadio #AmateurRadio #POTA #parksontheair activities. Here's proof. youtu.be/RZLeDmSOer8

- Pre-dawn #hamradio #amateurradio #pota #parksontheair activation setup with #ft817 #qrpradio into #qrp #EFHW
- This is a MUST Read for those who may be struggling learning #morsecode. Over the last few weeks I've had several #amateurradio #hamradio #pota #parksontheair P2P with Zach, my Kentucky neighbor. Outstanding #cw newbie. You'd never know it by his sending and listening. Look for him on #potaspots
- Thanks to @potaspots.bsky.social , all #POTA #parksontheair hunters and others for helping me reach another milestone. The sweet taste of "RUM" Mike #K4RUM put me over 9K contacts at US-7956. #amateurradio #hamradio at its BEST.

- It is amazing that you can pick out an operator callsign by their sending style as if it were their voice during a #MorseCode #CW #HamRadio #AmateurRadio #POTA #parksontheair youtu.be/eFVye4r_nCc
- HUGE grin for today's Early Bird #hamradio #morsecode #cw #parksontheair #pota activation because #radioblackout produced 20m opening into VK land using @#youkits #hb1b with 4040-10m #EFHW antenna up 35feet. #amateurradio is AWESOME BABY

- Two recent days of #QRPp (less than a watt) #MorseCode #CW #POTA #parksontheair activations early morning on 40 meters from US-7956 - Louisville, KY using the setup pictured into a @tuftelndotnet 40/20 #LinkedEFHW up 35'.
- No #QRPp #cw #morsecode attempt for this morning's #parksontheair #pota activation. Too much #QRM #QSB on 40 meters. Not complaining as I still managed 41 contacts thanks to some wonderful hunters.

- A great #amateurradio #hamradio #QRPp #cw #morsecode #parksontheair #pota activation with @qrplabs #qcxmini into @tuftelndotnet 40/20 m #linkedefhw up about 30'. 27 contacts on 40 meters with less than a watt with help from Rocky Squirrel.
