A little Friday afternoon backyard DX before the rain, with a little Ti' Punch to ameliorate the disappointment.
2oz Rhum Agricole
1 tsp cane sugar syrup
1-2 tsp lime juice
pour over ice, drink and forget how to tie your shoelaces.

Met Office graphic with the heading 'DID YOU KNOW?' and an illustration of a light bulb. Text reads: '100 years ago today, the BBC broadcast the very first Shipping Forecast, produced by the Met Office on behalf of the Maritime and Coastguard Agency.' Includes the hashtag '#WhenItMatters'. On the right, a photo shows rough ocean waves under a cloudy sky.

Did you know? 100 years ago today, the BBC broadcast the #ShippingForecast for the very first time, produced by the Met Office for the Maritime and Coastguard Agency.

More than just a lifesaver, it’s become a beloved part of Britain’s cultural identity. Learn more: bit.ly/4kg877D πŸ›³οΈπŸŒŠ

No, you do not need a ham radio license to listen to International Space Station (ISS) contacts. You will need a radio that can tune into frequencies like 145.800 MHz for educational contacts or 437.800 MHz for the repeater frequency. Many scanners or software-defined radios (SDR) can cover these frequencies.

You can listen in to ARISS space to ground communications without a radio license in most places around the world!

Tune to 437.800 MHz FM with a scanner or SDR (or of course an amateur radio) to hear the cross-band voice repeater. During STEM contacts, use 145.800 MHz FM.
