A very full week of activity except maybe for Friday and Saturday. Plenty of DX about. I worked a few stations but I’ve also been playing with a NanoVNA on my antennas. What a wonderful little gadget it is. Hmm, I need to read up about Smith Charts!
I have also been watching Physicist Prof Brian Cox’s Adventures in Space and Time, BBC2. Superb. Can you believe this guy was also in a couple of rock groups.
Beware also, yet another MS Update is about. JTAlert users will have to change windowsdesktop-runtime-5.0. 7 -win-x64 back to windowsdesktop-runtime-5.0. 6 -win-x64. VK3AMA is working on a fix.
I did manage to work 3W1T (Vietnam) but on 17m without the amplifier.

Sun: One sunspot which is stable and quiet.
Euro footy this week. I’m only catching fleeting glimpses of it. And there is no real cricket either.
Next week we get the Championship fixtures for the coming season. Will I be able to get to a match, I wonder?
