First foray into the world of data modes today, managed to get listening to some #ft8 with a 12 year old computer and a little usb audio mixer I had laying around 🎛 🖥.
Next up, get the Tx working 😎

@RobbThePhoto Thanks Robb, I need to have a look into that too. What software would you recommend?

[Andy - G7YAB 🇬🇧 🎙 @G7YAB_Andy]

@KO4RGZ Thanks, I'll listen out for you once we're up and running. I picked up a station from the Ukraine earlier so seems to be working so far.

@FranKel11884757 Thanks Fran, so much for me to catch up on since I sat the RAE back in 1989!

Finding myself #hamradio happy as the sun goes down over the yardarm of 2021 🙂. Great to be back into the hobby after 30+ years away. Still find it awesome that 60w into a longwire can be received 1000 miles away 🤯 📻. HNY & best 73s.
What's been your #hamr highlight?

[Andy - G7YAB 🇬🇧 🎙 @G7YAB_Andy]

@Robbie_W1RCP Hi Robbie, that's quite a haul of QSOs, really impressed and glad you're back. 🙂

[Andy - G7YAB 🇬🇧 🎙 @G7YAB_Andy]

@alaskaham Great to hear from you Mimi, I'm thinking about starting out into CW in 2022 as well.

[Andy - G7YAB 🇬🇧 🎙 @G7YAB_Andy]

@G4LMN Nice one 👍 Furthest I've had was a QSO to Lenningrad in Russia.

[Andy - G7YAB 🇬🇧 🎙 @G7YAB_Andy]

@andytuk Oh yes, thanks Andy. 👍 Enjoy the Brewdog 🙂🍺
