Today I am basking in the spring sun by the Nambucca River, between Coffs Harbour and Port Macquarie on the east coast of Australia. This is the first #POTA activation of this river (AU-10470 – Nambucca National Wild and Scenic River)

Hey Tim Cook, how about putting #LaunchPad back on #Mac!
LaunchPad on #MacOS has been a part of my daily workflow for over a decade, but was taken away in macOS 26 and replaced with “Apps”. But it does a different task.
I agree with @macworld.com - www.macworld.com/article/2935...

I might be late to the party here, but I was scrolling through my #CarPlay screens this week and found the @nytimes.com logo. It's for their audio. And in their audio, they have a few more things, like Reporter Reads, than you get in the Apple Podcasts app as a subscriber. Nice!

I haven’t traveled much recently but on Friday took off and the plane went over my little hometown of Bellingen. I recalled the cities I’ve peered out the window at: Sao Paolo 22m, Beijing 20m, Tokyo 38m, Shanghai 26m and NY 19m. And here’s little old Bello with 3k people. I’m good with that.

A few weeks ago, I posted about UGreen’s Find My tags. The wallet one also works well in a glasses case.

I left my radio txing running overnight on #WSPR and geeked-out this morning seeing it had been heard with only ten watts in Antarctica! DPØGVN is a club station located at the German Antarctic Research Station "Neumayer III" in Dronning Maud Land. www.qrz.com/db/DP0GVN

Sometimes, the world can be a lonely place.
Sometimes, it's nice to know you're not alone.

I am absolutely amazed at #WSPR. This is on 10 watts from a vertical in a valley on the east coast of Australia during daylight hours. #hamradio #amateurradio blows me away. #vk

I heard this tip the other day. Put your AirPods in upside down and swap the ears. They keep noise out and don’t fall out. And it works! Thanks MacGeekgab @davehamilton.com
