6M,
Hamradio,
Iota.
This page has been seriously neglected for several years. I would like to do something about that, but as I’m not really working too much radio, I would need to write about some other stuff that I’m doing as well. I’ve been doing a lot of programming, and I’ve been contributing to open source software. I’ll write more about that in another post.
Here is a short summary from 2021, so that I’m up to date with that before 2022 is over.
I worked 3 new countries on 6m in 2021.

Homepage.
I just noticed today that the page was down. My host updated to PHP8 a few days ago, and it turns out, that some of the stuff I use here, is not compatible with PHP8. I managed to get the page working again by deactivating a few plugins, updating another plugin, and updating the theme. Guess that really is a kick in the behind to update the theme and plugins to something newer.

I’ve added a few new pages here. They contain a list of distance records on different bands on different propagation modes. They are far from complete, but hopefully I’ll add some more info when people contribute with information. Thanks to LA0BY for giving me a push to get these lists online.
LA distance records
JW distance records
JX distance records

6M,
Hamradio.
As promised, here is the summary from last year:
I worked 6 new countries on 6m last year. I did hear YB, 4S7 and VR2, but I never managed to work them. We also had several amazing openings to the far east. I didn’t work all the openings, but I did have the radio on to monitor. I also had several good openings to North America, where I managed to work Kansas and Indiana for 2 new states. I only need 5 more states to have WAS on 6m. When I check the log, I worked 80 new grids on 6m, which makes for a #904 grids worked.
