What if we captured all of our history in one place? Documented everything that happened, when 20m became available, when 160m was taken away and given back? All of it.
This is an attempt at doing just that.
As a way of keeping off the street I've been working on a project to make contacts across all amateur modes, across all bands, across all countries.
Software Defined Radio (SDR) is a way of looking at radio spectrum that goes far beyond Valves and Transistors. Getting started with this kind of project can be as simple as plugging in a USB DVB-T dongle and running the right software.
From time-to-time I create visualisations to explore random data-sets. For the first time I'm collating them in one place.
The amateur radio community has a "code", called the "Amateur's Code". It's been around for a century and over time it has evolved in an attempt to follow the changing attitudes within society. In these pages I explore the code as it was, as it is and what it could become.
