Yep. RF and computers. Mix them together? Sure. EN62aw

Anyone know what frequency this antenna is for? Found it at my mom's house today. Front element is 11 inches and the back is 14 inches. Doesn't seem to be 70cm though it does pick up a weather radiosonde when I point it in that direction. Says Antennaco Inc Milford NH. #hamradio

@KD9IXX Sweet. That's really helpful, thanks!

[KB9WOO Mark @KB9WOO]

@KD9IXX I wondered about that. I think the manual calls for a 23amp? supply and I don't have the means to do a real-world test.

[KB9WOO Mark @KB9WOO]

@KD9IXX I'm liking the price of that. At 12ah, what do you limit your operating power to?

[KB9WOO Mark @KB9WOO]

@KD9IXX Excellent. I have the other efhw from QRPguys with the 3d printed box. I don't have portable power yet, that's mainly what I need.

@KB9E_Gregg Not 100% sure on coverage, but if you look up the W3WAN it's a pretty good sized linked system out that way.

[KB9WOO Mark @KB9WOO]

Got some DX today, and on 10m too. 100 watts and a wire - Brazil on 10m, Spain on 15m, Cape Verde and Bosnia on 20m. Stoked about that.

@orion3311 That thing looks newer than the Duracell in my smoke detector (which is new, don't worry)

[KB9WOO Mark @KB9WOO]

@MWimages Ah, not sure if you caught my sarcasm. I have two kegs I haven't cleaned, but also never opened. 🤢

[KB9WOO Mark @KB9WOO]

@MWimages @whitelabs Thinking about it, I didn't actually make that many lagers. I mostly held the temp to get the right carbonation.

[KB9WOO Mark @KB9WOO]

@MWimages @whitelabs I have a temp controller I used for lagers. I thought I hadn't brewed in a couple years, but when I saw the expiration date on my starsan was 7 years ago...🤣

[KB9WOO Mark @KB9WOO]

@MWimages #RDWHAHB I have some corny kegs I'm literally scared to open. How long do you think they hold pressure, and how disgusting will they be?

[KB9WOO Mark @KB9WOO]

@MWimages You're definitely above my brewing skill set, but I did always take the available fermentation temperatures into consideration when choosing the style and yeast options for the next brew.

[KB9WOO Mark @KB9WOO]

Aaaand we're back.

@Ask_Spectrum internet flakey in Milwaukee, WI. Currently down. Been bouncing all day. Can't work from home like this!

[KB9WOO Mark @KB9WOO]

@orion3311 Seemed like that specific tweet was being blocked 🤷‍♂️ I see it finally went through. I also see my "online" light is still blinking. 🤬

[KB9WOO Mark @KB9WOO]

Seems I can't sent tweets..
