SignaLink Radio Interface

I have heard much about the SignaLink radio interface that I finally had to buy one. It looks like a very good quality piece of equipment. I have not tried it yet. but soon! I am going to connect it to my DX-70T and see how it performs. I have been busy in life and also busy trying to upgrade my shack. I have added some new things for the digital world and will be posting them here soon.

New cell phone

Normally a new cell phone would not be something very interesting to write about. I hate getting a new cell phone because you have to learn everything over. This new cell phone is the first "smart" phone for me. It is an Android Samsung Rugby Pro. I am excited about this phone because of the PSK app. I will be looking into this further. I also can use this phone to have weather maps during Skywarn activations. I hope going modern here will work out.

I had a fun time running command line and it was easy! I found a very good website that walks you through the process, it is pretty easy. Check it out.

What a difference on HF!

Here at my QTH we have been having some interference from the electric poles in town and this has been going on for years. Well with the help of the local club, FCC and the power company there has been a great improvement. Tonight was the first time in years that I have been able to see everything on the waterfall of FLdigi. I want to thank everyone involved in making this happen. We now need to stay vigilant.
