Not Really, it’s tonight’s Radio net, called the Confusion Net mostly because the radios we use for the net are a specific brand – Yaesu, and most Yaesu radios support a mode called fusion, one aspect of which is a method called C4FM (I’m probably getting the basics if this really wrong, which will driveContinue reading “1573 – Confusion”

Last night’s post was very short. I haven’t felt that bad (tired, exhausted, drained) for quite a while. No idea why it should come on like that. I was in bed just after 9PM, and barely managed to get that blog post written. I feel tired tonight, but not like that. I’ve been going onContinue reading “1572 – Saturday & YouTube”

I am just so tired tonight, sorry.

Yes, mixed up, but in a good way. What with Amateur Radio, photography and camera club and a bit video logging, it has been an interesting week. I’ve now got hold of the user manual for the Insta360 Flow 2 Pro, so that has really got things going. I’m beginning to understand what I amContinue reading “1570 – Mixed up week”

When Misty jumped on the bed at about half past 4 this morning, she was slightly damp, not drenched, so I thought that it might be raining lightly. No, not raining at all, there was quite a thick fog. I got up for my walk. It was one of the thickest mists I have seenContinue reading “1569 – The Fog”

I am very pleased to tell you that the #Breakfastclub is returning, perhaps not on GB3IW, but it was really nice to have some old familiars on the air for a chat whilst on this morning’s walk. The day did come to a bit of a crashing halt, I ended up standing myself down forContinue reading “1568 – Tuesday – It’s Camera Club Night”

With the Insta360 Flow 2 Pro Mobile Phone Gimbal. The important thing with any new piece of tech, is to use it to become familiar with it. Even though I haven’t fully got to grips with my radio, the Yaesu FT-500 which my sister bought me for Christmas I try to learn something new aboutContinue reading “1567 – A Stable Walk”

We had another lovely day today. One of the things that we really like about the Gosport Camera Club is the Sunday walk, on the last sunday of the month. The Sunday walk usually involves visiting a location for the purpose of taking photos, sometimes it has a nature inclination other times it could beContinue reading “1566 – The Weekend continues”

We had a day out today, visiting the Postal Museum in London. Included in the trip was a short 15 minutes ride on Mail Rail, the little underground train that used to carry post across the city without interference by the hubbub of city life above. I have to say that it was an extremelyContinue reading “1565 – The Post”

The picture didn’t come out the way I intended, apart from the fact that I had to do a fair bit of straightening because I’d taken it at a wierd angle, I’m not sure what effect I was after, possibly dawns light coming through the glass.\ What didnt help was that I was annoyed thatContinue reading “1564 – Friday”
