I've been seeing a lot of FT8 posts lately. I've even tried it out. But, I'm more of a ragchewer than a contester. If you're in that boat too, fire up fldigi and give the Olivia modes a try. I've had perfect copy QSOs when the signal was barely visible in the waterfall. It's similar technology (MFSK with FEC) but you're not constrained to short, templated messages. I find Olivia-8-500 to be a good balance of speed and bandwidth.

@rey these are actually quite tasty

@djsundog Are you messing with the simulation again? I was just out shopping and Smooth came on the store music system.

@rey The first time I saw "G" on my phone I had to look up what the everlovin' it meant (GPRS). Granted this was some years ago, but I was only ever used to seeing it go as low as EDGE.

@rey How did a Labrador get into your apartment? How did it not scare off the squirrels? Were they cinnamon rolls?

@filkerdave :(

@cstanhope @djsundog There are still some broadcasts of text and pictures of the radio: http://swradiogram.net/
Useful for getting news to places without much/any Internet these days.

@jordyd Forsooth! That is one too many "sooth"s :)

@HTHR You oscillate its tit a lot.

and yes I've already busted Packet Pushers for having an #IPv6 podcast on a legacy-only host.
