  1. What is the band plan for FT4 on 6 meters?

    Here in Michigan I am decoding and hearing stations in Florida on FT4 on 50.240 (and up from that to 50.242+). I'm using an AirSPY HF+, YouLoop antenna, OpenWebRX+, Pi 400.

    My first time copying FT4 on any band, audio sounds like FT8 except twice the rate.

    Stations heard include #KM4CRZ (Ocala FL) coming in very strong.

  6. 6m has been insane in the US the past 48 hours. My FT8 decode waterfall looks like 20m. 50-60 decodes per cycle. Europe, then a bit later, Japan. #magicband

  8. Radio Propagation

    With one day to the summer solstice, we've almost reached the theoretical peak for sporadic-E in the northern hemisphere. Since upper-air weather plays a part in sporadic-E formation, the actual activity peak won't normally coincide with the theoretical peak.

    This year it coincides with a weekend and a couple of 6m activity contests, so the bands will be rammers from around 15h UT today.

    This is the current 6m to 2m situation over Europe. FM band 2 and 144 MHz are enjoying strong Es conditions over the south and south-east.

    Orange=50 MHz
    Hot pink=FM Band 2
    Red=144 MHz

  13. I’ll be camping in West Virginia in EM97 this week. Going to try to work the #MagicBand with this “thrift store” ham stick dipole and a QMX+.

    Is #WestVirginia rare in others’ logs? I hadn’t been able to get it in my last 1.5 years as a Technician.

  18. The bottom one is correct since the ticket itself in that line already has the words "of the ________ Crew", so the extra "the" is not needed. Thanks to whomever fixed that! #JungleCruise #Disneyland70 #Magicband #Disneyland

  22. I was trying to distract myself from a very stressful situation today, so I decided to finally go through my collection of #Disneyland70 #Magicband interaction printouts from #Disneyland .

    For the #MarkTwainRiverboat ticket, I'd noticed some time ago that the special text is printing in the wrong place. The top card is the correct one. You can see on the bottom card that the two-line printout of "ticket issued to"

  26. Got two different driver citations today. I find it amusing that they're cleverly disguising the printer as a plant box. #Autopia #Disneyland70 #MagicBand #Disneyland

  30. I was thrilled yesterday when I found out that the special #Disneyland70 #Magicband interaction celebrating #Autopia is now giving a free souvenir printout. You get a driver citation, with one of six boxes checked off. With this one starting so much later, there's much less time to try to get a whole set.

    And yes, they changed the text in the #Disneyland app again to reflect this change.

  34. 6m FT8 waterfall has looked like 40m all day today in the Central US. East Coast booming, SE and S doing well. Missing the west of the Rockies contingent! #HamRadio #MagicBand #6meters

  36. I finally got #BoteCrashersUnion on my own today! This is the one I've been wanting but haven't been lucky enough to get it. I've actually got two of them because other people got it, knew how much I wanted it, and gave it to me, which I totally appreciate, but it's not the same as getting it myself, you know? 🙂 #MagicBand #MagicBands #MagicBandPlus #JungleCruise #JungleNavigationCoLtd #MekongMaiden #Disneyland70 #Disneyland
