23:38 and no information from @easyJet @easyJetholidays about the flight that should have left at 18:45. Young families with babies young as 6 months with checked luggage they have no access to with baby food - incredible poor performance 23:40 14/10/2024

Made the mistake of moving to Lyca Mobile. Roaming does not work, authentication requests refused. Lyca has only basic level support. Below is an example of what happens when you have done all their basic checks and it still does not work. #OFCOM #lyca #lycamobile

A nice little 50el 70MHz OWL. Scans from AN-SOF and the analyser show just how close prediction gets these days. g0ksc.co.uk #innovantennas #hamr #hamradio #antennas #antennadesign

This little LFA-R (driven element and director) is just 50cms long and yet has stunning performance all be it a little narrow. Ideal for digi modes on the 8m band #40mhz #hamradio #hamr #antennas #AmateurRadio

Something new to come? A new, lighter and improved 5el 50MHz Low Noise LFA Yagi - The LFA-4. 4.3m boom . No matching device so no matching losses. closed loop feed with DC ground means a quieter antenna with RX protection and Band Pass Filter (BPF) characteristics #hamr

Using a rear splitter mounting bar (particularly on 70cms) ensures all cables remain short and thus losses reduce. g0ksc.co.uk #hamr #hamradio #antennas #amatuerradio #70cms #eme

Ideally X-pol Yagis will have a non-metallic cross-boom and coax will exit the rear of the antennas #hamradio #hamr #antennas #AmateurRadio

This antenna was the starting point of my HF BOLPA Log Periodic range. square booms as the feed lines with half element sections altering between top and bottom boom to adjust phase. #logperiodic #logp #antennas #hamradio #hamr #AmateurRadio
