I've been in the hospital. But I'm good because I didn't see my name in the obituaries 😂.

C&P is the easiest way to keep this alive.

Interesting.

Three days to go. Now 14.

Any Linux users? Check out linux.org. I've been spending quite a bit of time there.

@NickAlexeev Probably, but a recording would be helpful. A cellphone next to a computer speaker can definitely cause sounds.

Thank you, @NickAlexeev :-)

Pouring some more antifreeze in here ...

Better bump this before I forget it. :-)

Fair enough! I hope that I can remember. Lately, I have been spending time on linux org and elsewhere, and I've kind of lost interest in SE sites.

Thanks! I'll check it out when I get a chance. 😃

I just took a glance at Codidact. Maybe someday. I've discovered linux.org and have been spending time there.

I would try and answer some of your questions here, if I can ever get out of this burned out fuzzy funk 🔵

I see what you mean. :-)

Is there a reason why you don't post some of these questions above in the main forum? You might get more answers.

@misk94555 Thanks for being here

😂

@misk94555 Sorry I don't know the answers. :-)

The PL-259 is a male UHF connector. UHF is the classification of that type of connector. :)

@misk94555 Yes, but ...

arrl.org/wspr

That's the most relevant site I found. If that doesn't answer your question, then try following the links there.

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/WSPR_(amateur_radio_software)

Argh! Excuse my feeble-mindedness. That was on the linked post.

That is something unique! An array of GPS antennas makes a radio telescope! 😀

Can you please post it here again, @Jon?

It had a link to TART on Wikipedia

I posted a comment, but it and @JonCuster's comment vanished!

Also, Owen Duffy and I used to correspond via email a lot. I even spoke with him on the phone once. What a brilliant man!!!

Argh! What a short edit timeout. :-(

A real transformer is plagued with chronic diseases and brain fog,

@Ryuji Your words at [ham.stackexchange.com/a/23293/8717](made me laugh!) But I think I see what you're trying to say. :-)

For 14 more days.

Only two days to go until this room automatically closes for "lack of activity". There, I fixed it. :-)

This new 6 GHz band appears to not need a license, and it's easier than the old 10 GHz Gunnplexer equipment with Gunn diodes.

6 GHz band opens. FYI.

@uhoh I love physics. I would spend more time on physics.SE if it wasn't so heavy handed.

Hip replacement successful. Now lots of therapy. :-)

Got a new hip replacement, back home from the orthopedic hospital yesterday. :-)

@uhoh You could report that ongoing too-strict moderator behavior to SE employees. Maybe discuss that in the physicsSE chat with others first.

@uhoh Can't wait. I'm tired of being a cripple. :-)

@uhoh As I commented there, why should that have been closed as a duplicate? Somewhere in the official SE guidelines, it's plainly stated that in some circumstances, similar questions are sometimes allowed. There are good answers in both questions. I think the closed one complements the first one. Both should remain open.

I get my hip replacement in a few days. Hopefully, I'll be able to work on my antennas soon after.

And interests!
