Oh, it so is....
Finally making some progress, but still a way to go to get everything working as I want it.
Win11 is so very different to Win10 - nothing where you expect it to be

Amateur radio op, mainly digital modes, often on FT8, but also participate in RTTY contests. Prefer LoTW for confirmation ๐

Good tip... thanks. I'll check that out. Cheers Chris

Except on my Raspberry Pi - in which case, the task bar is at the top
That's another thing I want to fix... gonna take some time, I think ๐ค
28.10.2025 18:46 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Yeah... I did utility by clicking on Start, then ALL (top right) and then drag the wanted icon to the desktop
28.10.2025 18:40 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 04 slots.... 20, 15, 12 and 10m.
They're on 30m FT8 currently, but nothing here.
The only band I don't need is 17m.
They have very high QRN at their end, especially on the lower bands
Spent a good bit of this afternoon setting up a new Win11Pro box. Oh boy, it isn't as intuitive as Win10....
Took me ages to put a shortcut on the desktop ๐คจ
Still puzzling over networking it to the shack PC
Very happy to get 6O3T on 20m FT8 earlier. It wasn't easy, with many calling, but also high QRN at their end too
28.10.2025 17:21 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0You can still get the older version though
27.10.2025 15:16 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0No, it doesn't work on Trixie...
I did email the author, and updating it is not his priority at the moment
As Dale said... just follow the instructions on the HamClock website. I have it installed on 2 separate Pi 3B+. One on a 7" screen, and one on a 15" screen.
It just worked
I wonder how long his voice lasted? Bet he's woken up rhis morning with a sore throat ๐

26.10.2025 16:27 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0We have certain reasons for not liking how it's run...
A long story, and I'll tell you why some time.....
I didn't pay attention to that at the time as I'm not a fan of that program, so I don't bother nothing such things
23.10.2025 21:05 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Not interested shack at present, but I'm sure it's on QRZ
23.10.2025 19:48 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0So true....
How did we ever have time to go to work ๐ค
Nice one ๐

23.10.2025 15:09 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Trust me, it's a faint memory, and I now have to make copious notes or I can forget where I was going....
I've gone upstairs before, got to the top, then wondered what I was doing
I'd have got it down to one page, and put that in the bin
23.10.2025 14:16 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Ah, I remember work..... ๐คญ๐
23.10.2025 14:16 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 2 ๐ 0That sounds like fun..... not! ๐ตโ๐ซ
Should have played radio, it's more fun ๐
Bit of fun on the bands this morning. Played on 30m for a bit, then worked loads of JA's on 15m.
Saw 6O3T spotted on 10m... got them 1st call. Had a look at 15m, and yay! got them there as well. That's 2 new slots for me ๐
But also back in the day when the total number of submitted logs for CQWW RTTY was in the hundreds
22.10.2025 18:33 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0My best was during CQWW RTTY many years ago.
Heard them on 80m, but with a big pileup. I called, and the reply was "QRX, only the GU pls".
Oh yes! Made my day
Should have gone for it....

Nice one to get though ๐
