MANY THANKS TO IAN (EI3LH), WHO SHARES THE FOLLOWING POST, ORIGINALLY

WITH THE KH1
BY THOMAS (K4SWL) YESTERDAY–DECEMBER 29, 2025–I HAD A FEW
ERRANDS TO RUN IN TOWN. THE PLAN WAS SIMPLE: MAKE MY APPOINTMENTS,
GRAB GROCERIES, AND HEAD STRAIGHT HOME. I HAD PROJECTS WAITING FOR ME
THERE, INCLUDING ORGANIZING FIREWOOD BEFORE THE WINDS PICKED UP AND
THE TEMPERATURES DROPPED ANY FURTHER. THEN, UNEXPECTEDLY, MY 3:00 PM

QUICKIE ACTIVATION: NINE MINUTES OF RADIO THERAPY AT THE NC
TRANSPORTATION MUSEUM
BY THOMAS (K4SWL) ON MONDAY, DECEMBER 1, 2025, I MANAGED TO SQUEEZE IN
A LAST-MINUTE, IMPROMPTU–AND VERY SPEEDY–ACTIVATION OF THE

SAUK MOUNTAIN STATE PARK, RUNNING MY ELECRAFT KX2 AT 10 WATTS QRP INTO
A VERY COMPROMISED AX2 ANTENNA. NO TOWER. … CONTINUE READING

BY VINCE (VE6LK) AS ALWAYS, THERE ARE LOTS OF LINKS WITHIN THE
ARTICLE. CLICK ONE! CLICK THEM ALL! LEARN ALL THE THINGS! ? I’M

BY THOMAS (K4SWL) ITS CHRISTMAS EVE AS I WRITE THIS, SIPPING MY FIRST
CUP OF MORNING COFFEE, THE HOUSE IS STILL QUIET, AND IVE HAD A FEW
THOUGHTS ON MY MIND THAT ID LIKE TO EXPLORE–IF YOULL INDULGE ME
