CERT class was very good and the prime rib at the American Legion hall was a treat. Had a couple $3 pints there so home for the evening. The pups enjoyed their trimmings - it was gone in a couple of seconds but they were wagging their tails for a couple minutes after. They are downstairs gnawing on some bones and very happy.
So far, the longest WSPR contact has been 1,300 miles away in Alaska - again, really crappy antenna. Looking forward to setting up a decent one. The computing overhead for the database logging is pretty minimal so there are versions of this software that run on a $35 Raspberry Pi - looking at setting up a stand-alone appliance to handle the beacon and the receiver.
Weather looking good for tomorrow and the yard needs mowing seriously. Do that tomorrow and then to the farm for a few days. Also need to do some paperwork tomorrow.
