Cats on the Air!

George

Even with a low watt HT, getting on the air is easy. Now if I only had opposable thumbs to be able to turn this on!

Pumpkin

Working 40 meters can be fun. You'll never know who you will be able to reach, it's the cats meow!

Andrew

Working FT8 can be a lot of fun, but frustrating when that DX contact you need just can't quite hear your weak signal transmission.
