My First Satellite QSO confirmed. EA1DR via the repeater on board the International Space Station. Not bad when you consider all I have is a Diamond X50 antenna mounted on a 3.5 metre pole. #ARISS #ISS #HamRadio @ea1dr

So 2024 finishes with just over 4800 QSOs from 171 different DXCCs, 142 of which are now confirmed on LoTW. Hope all of you have a wonderful 2025 and a brilliant year for Ham Radio.

Great to work C5T this afternoon with just 70w and a Ham Stick. Knew I'd be lucky when I had this rainbow over the car minutes before I worked the DX-Pedition on 10m SSB, de GW5GDP. #C5T #HamRadio #DXCC #DXPedition #Gambia #Rainbow

@LB4FH My ratio is a lot smaller as I log stations exactly as they say on air - so if they say /P then that's how I log them. But only a few people have a /P logbook, so the QSO is not then confirmed on QRZ.

@JG0ktw @MaltesersUK I think they are free range now lol

@LB4FH Always a pleasure to hunt you

@LB4FH Great to be one of them my friend.

@mm0ndx Hoping to hear you on the bands

@mm0ndx Have a safe trip my friend

@M1eccAntennas I was waiting for you're website and ordered mine just before one o'clock this morning!

Got this incredible QSL card today. 1197 km, 743 miles with just 20w and my tiny OCFD. I was amazed to work this German Station on 4m last month. #70MHz #4metres #SporadicE

@G0MFR @2m0sql Sadly my health doesn't let me take part in the actual Contest themselves, so I just like to see how many DXCCs I can work in the contest period instead. Managed 46 DXCCs on SSB in the twelve hours of yesterday.

Why are @BBCNews using a 2019 copyright date at the end of the News tonight. Surely 2024 is MMXXIV @BBCBreaking #DDay

When you’re disabled and rely on #Alexa to turn the electric fire off is not good when she decides that she isn’t able to understand me at this time. #AlexaDown #HotandBothered #CantRelyOnAnyOneAnymore #GrumpyOldMan #ManShoutsAtCloud

@jamiemillington What band were you using?

@pauljohnsontog @BoxingShrew Is that UK time?

@SP9DLM Great to work him on 9th February, he handled the QSO with excellence. It was a pleasure to work him.
