QRP operator: when you care to send the very least… Nobody complains when I tune up…

It's still in development and leaves a lot to be desired but the more people play with it and give feed back the more we'll see improvement.

I'm curious if we'll see any migration to Mercury vs VARA? Right now it's few and far between using it, but as an open source, platform agnostic parallel to VARA there is some potential I suppose.

VARA is still a challenge here with my Mint system. I have it workable on a Pi. Now Winlink, I'm using Pat for WL2K though minus VARA on HF that's rough though it's FB on Packet. Still working on this too dl2man.de/ARDOP/

Did you catch the waterfall when the immersive exhibit one sent, it was wild, loads of diagonal lines and crazy sounds.

But too much fade here today

I questioned frequency stability as well with mine. I've modded a Quansheng UV-K5 recently to get back to all mode 2m operations but still need to do physical changes, just did firmware so far. SSTV and CW on FM and keyer work well.

2m all mode right? I had one back in the late 90's and it seemed to operate well but there was little to no non-FM 2m operations around me so I sold it for lack of use. Many years later I'd love the chance to do 2m CW again.

When you get over in the Hudson Valley part of NY we even have old fish on our road signs!

He's on 40m now 7082.5 khz

I'm QRP and I don't think he heard me.

I'm copying W9YV at 14062

So what's your dial frequency? I'm thinking you want to keep centered at 1500 on FLDigi and tune to the signal

Where are you in 40m?

How long is the sprint running? I was field testing portable operations and I will get my desk reset if you're still on.
