I decided to upload my video submission for the 2011 ARRL Video Contest. It was after we mailed it in when we found that we exceeded their 5 minute limit -- profusely.
Dan, KD0NFP and George, KC9TKA, both got to get their feet wet on the HF bands. Dan had a little trouble with QRM but finally got through. There was also a 10 meter opening where Dan got to use his own Technicians callsign. ►Blog: http://n0ssc.com/ ►Twitter: https://twitter.com/n0ssc ►Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/kawfey

I got a few treats in the mail today! Got my K1EL Winkeyer WKMini Mini and I'm going to unbox and review it live and with zero preparation with my ICOM IC-7300!

Thanks to u/cadr on reddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/amateurradio...) I have been inspired to learn CW for 10 minutes every day at 7pm (ish) Central for 90 days (give or take for life, work, etc)!
So to hold me accountable and also maybe to inspire a few of you do to the same, I'll be live streaming my progress here on YouTube and Twitch.tv. --... ...--! -- Watch live at https://www.twitch.tv/kawfey

Operating and watching the 2017 Total Solar Eclipse from Anna, IL. It was absolutely incredible, but my ham radio performance was not - I only made 6 contacts...regardless, totality was absolutely breathtaking. SmarterEveryDay's video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lepQoU4oek4) pretty much sums up how we felt under the moon's shadow.
Also, sorry for the terrible lack of focus. My 6 year old point-and-shoot is pretty broke, and so is my wallet. Subscribe to N0SSC to help me make enough money to buy a camera that focuses.

Not that I care about youtube censoring anything I do, but because decentralized blockchain stuff is pretty neat.)

I found evidence that a 100 year old home might not be as forgiving as I thought. If you have any tuckpointing recommendations for St. Louis, hit me up.
