A ham interested in HF, Digital Modes, and CW. Trying really hard to make the airwaves a welcoming space for ALL operators. Yes, I'm a boring old white dude but I'm friendly!

I hope that everyone understands that my blog isn't all that interesting and that's kind of the point.
I'll say more about that later. But seriously, it's OK to slow down and just have fun with something. That's what I'm peddling here.

The Secret of Ham Radio is: Do the stuff you like.
Maybe mess around with something new once in a while.
But that stuff you like? Keep doing that. And please tell us about it!

Hey. So as major platforms start to fall apart, don't necessarily look for the next big one.
Dust off your blog.
Go back to establishing web-rings.
RSS feeds. Remember those?
This is the way to share good stuff. You don't need a centralized platform for that.
As hams, we should know that.

Being the disillusioned GenX techie that I am, ham radio feels like digging deep to study The Olde Magick. The whole endeavor is for its own sake. There’s no money to be made here. It’s all for the love of The Problem. Whatever The Problem might be today.
Deep thoughts, people.

Seriously? It wouldn't be hard to have a really efficient CLI based logging program based on what I've done so far with a feature that I know I would use and no one else would.
I'm just irritated that all of the GUI loggers I use have weird tab orders or make data entry require the mouse. Kinda chaps my cheeks, so to speak.
A couple of more hours and I'll have an open source logger to abandon! Woo hoo!

Wrote some madness in Python this morning. Got dangerously close to writing a command line logging program. Trying to resist, but I might be in too deep. This would truly be a logging program for ONE PERSON ON EARTH.
Yikes.
