- Built a DIY Yagi Antenna in an attempt to reach a nearby repeater. Alas, my transmissions don't seem to be reaching it. The repeater hears *something* since I hear the curiosity tone, but thats it. The good news is that it can receive just fine 😁. #HamRadio #AmateurRadio

- Today was the Rochester #MakerFaire at @rittigers.bsky.social ! My two favorite exhibits were the Lego Donkey Kong set, and the plush train the RIT model railroad club had.
- . @thenaterhood.bsky.social and I were "That House" again last night. One kid even said "I remember this house from last year!" Made my evening 🎃👻.
- Made an #APRS digipeater recently, and put it in my attic. It detects APRS from folks driving near my house and forwards them to aprs.fl! It is powered by a Raspberry Pi, a SHARI and software called Direwolf. I also made the antenna for it out of some copper wire. #AmateurRadio #HamRadio

- After working there for a decade, yesterday was my last day at #L3Harris. I leaned a lot in my time there, and grew as a software engineer. While I will miss my co-workers and friends, I am excited for my new role at Safran Federal Systems! I start there Monday!
- Did another test today. Got a distance of 2.4 miles (3.86 km) on the 70CM band today! Need to try even further later :).
- Built a Slim Jim antenna with @thenaterhood.bsky.social recently! We walked apart from each other and could hear each other clearly 1.5km away on the 70CM band. Need to try further away next time! #AmateurRadio #HamRadio

- I've been playing the #Croc remake on the Switch 2. Either I've gotten a lot better at video games over the past 25 years, or the controls are much better in the remake than the original :P Either way, it's still a fun and nostalgic time! 🐊
- I officially have two #Meshtastic nodes up and ruining! One is Raspberry Pi powered, and connected to the antenna on my roof. The other is a bit more mobile. I'm the only nodes in the area by the looks of things, though 😕.
