The OM14 activities has finished in this year. I ran QO100 successfully in OM14 and tested 144MHz Es propagation in the high altitude area. It’s will be active in OM03 or OM04 next year.

We're absolutely delighted with our custom polo shirts form Highland Workwear. It's great to celebrate the achievement of our young radio operators by having club shirts printed with their own callsigns on them. Our club members will be wearing their club shirts for @ARISS_Intl

Three commercial Bluebird 8-10 satellites from AST Spacemobile operating in the UHF (430-440 MHz) amateur radio band just launched at 06:39 UTC with Falcon 9 from Cape Canaveral 🚀. Who will be the first to catch and report their signals? 📡〰️ Possible Frequencies in the table below. #DARC #iaru @IARU #amateurradio #hamradio

Norway: 23cm EIRP restrictions come into effect on 1 January 2028 - implementation of ITU-R Recommendation M.2164-0. For satellite allocation a maximum of 0.5 watts EIRP if antenna elevation < 15°

I have added https://t.co/LRrAnxYTlh support into OscarWatch, and if you use Cloudlog for logging, it can automatically check if the grids are needed or not :p

[ARISS - Amateur Radio on the ISS @ARISS_Intl]

Thanks to @theRSGB for your continued support of amateur radio in human spaceflight and for the great work @m0xtd does every week!

[KH6WI Ham Radio @KH6WI_Ham_Radio]

Testing out OscarWatch from Peter (@mm9sql) with dual @IcomAmericaInc IC-705's being controlled with a HackberryPI (CM5 module with 16gb ram and 512gb SSD). #hamradio #AMSAT

[Peter (MM9SQL) @mm9sql]

Dual FT81X support now fully working in OscarWatch will be in the next stable.

Jus leaves dual 705 support and TS2000 working

[Peter (MM9SQL) @mm9sql]

To support all the fantastic Japanese satellite operators, I have been adding multi language support, at the moment the translations have been done by AI but will need the human touch :)

The third season satellite grid roaming will depart on June 15th and reach the G219 starting point in Guangxi at 2500 kilometers. It will travel over 8000 kilometers to reach Xinjiang, with the altitude of the passing sections ranging from 1000 to 5400 meters.

The Packet / APRS radio in the ISS Service Module is back up and running steadily for about 48 hours now.

Find out about our 70 cm setup in the graphic below, and come to our Discord channel to talk more APRS!

Think the best way for OscarWatch to get better is just to release it, so you can now download the code at https://t.co/X2nfJbxnnf or if you want to try it on your device, find the latest release at https://t.co/kRGxHeiTWi

[Peter (MM9SQL) @mm9sql]

Purely to increase the testing pool, I am looking for a couple of people who use Sats daily with an ICOM IC-9700 and a Yaesu rotator who fancy testing OscarWatch. DM me (don't reply to the tweet)
