Back in the 1980's I used to listen to NFL games on the U.S. Armed forces network with my radio in the U.K. I'd get the early game in, but at around 21:15 the signal would get weaker and weaker until all you could hear was static. I never knew why. . . Now I know! Thanks!!

Is it possible to set the PC time using the IC-705's GPS in this configuration? I can use a GPS dongle but would like to use the 705. Thanks!

8:15 with regards to the meteorite debris clustering in the upper atmosphere, something like the aurora, our magnetic field concentrates Solar material in the exosphere, who not a similar phenomena with tiny fragments of iron caught up in the upper level winds and heat energy from the surface to act like a reflective cloud held up over a region? I have to imagine it was am exciting time to be a ham in the 50's and 60s when the military was releasing materials in the sky to see what the effects were.

8:00 that would explain why we have this in the summer over the Plains to Atlantic states in spring and summer, with occasional instances over winter where warm gulf air intrudes north.

FYI Appleton knew the "E" layer as the Heaviside-Kennelly layer, predicted many years before. His experiments in radio wave reflection detected three layers, which he identified as D, E and F in order to allow for the possibility that there might one day be layers detected lower than the D layer. No such layers have been found.

Nice vid Bloke. Ive been an inactive F call for 13 years. This may give me the kick up the backside to upgrade at least to standard. Minikits seems to make some good gear . I have my sights on an ic705 soon. Then the upgrade will happen . Just need to find a local test location. Brendan VK2QRM

A MAD is a great excuse to regularly (monthly) get your uWave gear out for an arvo play, instead of just the three weekends of the year. Use it or lose it!

Another great presentation out of the 3FS stable! here in VK4 we do actually produce an annual calendar of all the MAD events , curtesy of Scott VK4CZ, which interlace the dates with the FD’s and other significant radio events. We think a bit of prior planning improves the turn-out rate on MADs VK4UH

I think we need more satellites which allow microwaves. Here in Poland I have access to QO100 -2.4GHz uplink, 10GHz downlink. I've build complete staff by mysleve and I'm really happy of that. I get also Khune 10GHz transverter but hard to find other crazy ppl around me to do 3cm band QSO... Again, satellites will bring more microwave users...

Be careful. I downloaded the 3 programs, installed them, and rebooted as directed. Windows crashed and tried to recover (blue screen of death) 4 times, then finally started correctly. Maybe restart after installing each program?
