@K0NR @frankmhowell Fm (music) is pretty good here but the last hearable daytime am station is a 24x7 ad.

@frankmhowell Interesting. I’ve largely given up on broadcast radio due to the large advertisement load.

The 5/8 wavelength vertical groundplane is a premier choice for the 6-meter band (50 MHz), offering a significant gain of 4.7 dBi and a low radiation angle ideal for DX propagation. Read the full text at: facebook.com/share/p/1GFCer…

@mwfoutch1 @WB8SCG Maybe take a tinySA with you next time.

Around various gas stations I pick up this interference on 147.090 ... Guessing it's a harmonic of equipment they are using at the pumps ... Anyone know for sure?

@POTAActivator Just tell them its a hot antenna with a heavy duty ground steak.

@DrSuneelDhand Is the potato chip launcher included or is it an optional add on?

I am delighted to announce that I will be leaving my current roles, including social media, as I’ve accepted a job working for a technology company on a new AI-powered lazyboy chair. This chair is unlike any other, and has a special arm to manually feed donuts into whoever is sitting in it. A built-in app to get pizza and fries delivered directly to the door. It also encourages maximum TV time, and has a special place to put legs to ensure adequate circulation and prevention of blood clots, if people want to spend 12 or more hours a day watching TV, which we highly encourage. We cannot wait to launch this product, and I am the chief inventor.

Oxford University researchers have discovered the densest element yet known to science... The new element, Governmentium (symbol=Gv), has one neutron, 25 assistant neutrons, 88 deputy neutrons and 198 assistant deputy neutrons, giving it an atomic mass of 312. These 312 particles are held together by forces called morons, which are surrounded by vast quantities of lepton-like particles called pillocks. Since Governmentium has no electrons, it is inert. However, it can be detected because it impedes every reaction with which it comes into contact. A tiny amount of Governmentium can cause a reaction that would normally take less than a second, to take from 4 days to 4 years to complete. Governmentium has a normal half-life of 2 to 6 years. It does not decay, but instead undergoes a reorganisation in which a portion of the assistant neutrons and deputy neutrons exchange places. In fact, Governmentium's mass will actually increase over time, since each reorganisation will cause more morons to become neutrons, forming isodopes. This characteristic of moron promotion leads some scientists to believe that Governmentium is formed whenever morons reach a critical concentration. This hypothetical quantity is referred to as a critical morass. When catalysed with money, Governmentium becomes Administratium (symbol=Ad), an element that radiates just as much energy as Governmentium, since it has half as many pillocks but twice as many morons.

@DaveBondyTV I remember it all too well. Still have lots more tree cleanup to finish in spring.

Remember this? One year ago today northern Michigan dealt with a major ice storm.

@DaveBondyTV @TeamYouTube Nothing to worry about. Just big tech in bed with big brother.

@TeamYouTube I logged onto my YouTube app and I had a notification that it wanted me to verify my age or something like that. I’m 51 years old. I’ve never had this issue at four. I clicked OK and it went away. Everything seems to be fine now. Is there anything I need to worry about?

@eevblog Only the one who can not be named would dare do such a thing.

Why are they redoing Harry Potter beat for beat? Why? It was already perfect, this adds nothing. We already know what every character looks and acts like, and this ain't it chief. And what do they expect to do, film and release one every year as the kids age like they did in the movies?This will get canned after one or two seasons. youtu.be/7kt8906WXFs?si…

@DaveBondyTV @AnnaRMatson If only we had a competent Congress to pass a law not to exceed the CPI.

@AnnaRMatson Yeah, and I do not believe they are voted for I believe they are appointed

🚨 Another rate hike approved in Michigan Regulators just signed off on an 8.9% increase for Consumers Energy customers, adding $276.6 million in revenue. The company wanted even more. State officials pushed back. But in the end, your bill is still going up.

Michigan has to be a close second.

@HB9VQQ Dang that a lot of support material and time. Could it have been printed vertical at a smaller layer height?

🚨🇺🇸BREAKING: SUPREME COURT JUST SAVED YOUR INTERNET BILL Ever downloaded or streamed something you probably shouldn’t have? Your internet provider just got some major legal protection - and so did you. Here’s what happened. Sony, Warner, Universal and 50+ music labels sued Cox Communications - one of America’s biggest internet providers - claiming Cox should be held responsible when its customers pirate music. They wanted $1.5 billion. Today, the Supreme Court said absolutely not. All 9 justices agreed. The logic is simple: Cox sells you internet access. What you do with it is on you - not them. Making internet providers responsible for every illegal thing a customer does online would mean cutting off entire households, coffee shops, hospitals and universities just because someone on the network pirated a song. The music industry is furious. Big Tech - Google, Amazon, Microsoft - is celebrating. Why it matters to you: if the labels had won, your internet provider could have been pressured to spy on your activity, throttle your speeds, or cut you off entirely based on accusations alone. No trial. No proof. Today’s ruling says that’s not how America works. Source: Supreme Court
