Underfoot Electrical charges is an interesting phenomena. While I wrote this post nearly two months ago, somehow it didn’t actually get published. — https://www.swpc.noaa.gov/products/geoelectric-field-models-1-minute Across the USA on May 10th and 11th, sky watchers marveled at bright displays of aurora borealis during the biggest geomagnetic storm in decades. Little did they know, something was also […]

The annual event is so well explained at their website that I will just send you there: http://13colonies.us/ Always a fun and festive event. I logged six of the colonies as I was preparing this post!  (Well one was WM3PEN which is a bonus contact.) Hoping I can do a full natural clean-sweep this year. […]

Echoing the overwhelmed feeling from current events they neither can influence, control or fully understand, Peter put the old 1960’s adage “Turn on, Tune in, Drop out” into modern use (I’m hitting the highlights, follow the link for the expanded original blog post): I think Timothy Leary’s slogan might not be a bad one to […]

Econ, Finance, and Accounting. The people who have to actually understand how money works in real life, are the least likely to favor socialism. That’s what a trained criminal investigator might call a clue. https://monsterhunternation.com/2024/04/09/correia-mocks-your-major/ While I would not go to print with the wasted verbiage Correia uses, he has a point. Unless University is […]

EDIT – Seems LoTW was only briefly up.  Might have been a test or an inadvertent public access moment prior to reconstruction being fully completed.  Or it broke right away again.  Comments are open for any reports of new information!   I won’t upload anything until after the weekend, but reports are that LoTW came […]

I found it quite interesting when the UK Government officially rolled out recommendations to residents to prepare for disaster: https://prepare.campaign.gov.uk/get-prepared-for-emergencies/ Obviously how you prepare and what you include in your provisioning varies by location and personal needs. For my location ways to keep warm in winter would be a priority that most of the UK […]

Really not interested in contributing in any fashion to Scholarships.  No serious* scholarship donations from me, no volunteered time from me, simply just not interested. (*sometimes you have to donate small amounts to be supportive of the larger efforts behind a scholarship) Even though scholarships are somewhat split between merit based and social agenda based […]

Both of the area clubs either canceled or sharply curtailed their Field Day activities when faced with harsh thunderstorms which dropped nearly five inches of rain, causing flooding and spawning at least six tornados in Wisconsin. As the stream between my house and my workshop hamshack flooded the roads to the hamshack, I decided it […]

Our present administration has really hit a raw nerve across my household on Student Loan forgiveness. Between the two of us, and our kids, my family has finish nine degrees, and we paid our way. No debts, only strategic student loans, and no millstone around anyone’s neck from education costs. Now after paying our way […]
