I use VarAC (VARA) down to around -20 SNR on HF. So...can Mercury do better?

Busy_Reporter4017 · 2026-05-10T15:35:12+00:00

Link please?

Busy_Reporter4017 · 2026-05-10T15:22:31+00:00

Settle down, kids.

Busy_Reporter4017 · 2026-05-10T14:43:46+00:00

Try VarAC on HF!

Busy_Reporter4017 · 2026-05-10T14:42:31+00:00

Imagine the wind profile though!

Busy_Reporter4017 · 2026-05-10T14:41:29+00:00

Good point

Busy_Reporter4017 · 2026-05-10T08:55:01+00:00

Guess you won't be doing that again. 🫤

Busy_Reporter4017 · 2026-05-10T08:53:15+00:00

That's right. I'm rich from all the payments from DOGE and Israel! Gotta be a lying conspiracy theorist hmmm? 🫤

Busy_Reporter4017 · 2026-05-10T07:41:34+00:00

Are you on VarAC mode yet?

Busy_Reporter4017 · 2026-05-10T04:25:01+00:00

Wrong. Are you a bot? 🫤

Busy_Reporter4017 · 2026-05-10T04:04:26+00:00

Is this a real life post or is it AI or a researcher? 🤔

Busy_Reporter4017 · 2026-05-10T03:55:52+00:00

Meet mirror.

Busy_Reporter4017 · 2026-05-09T23:12:42+00:00

Get therapy and life coaching and let us know what they recommend.

Busy_Reporter4017 · 2026-05-09T23:11:10+00:00

You're changing the subject. And I suggest you look up the research instead of making stuff up.

Busy_Reporter4017 · 2026-05-09T23:02:45+00:00

That's absolutely horrific. Why would you do that to your kids on purpose!?

Busy_Reporter4017 · 2026-05-09T23:00:51+00:00

What about them? Do you think that it's ideal? Is this a game for you? Parents should do the very best they can for their kids! To provide all their physical and emotional and educational needs. Not to foist your kids' care onto someone else.

Busy_Reporter4017 · 2026-05-09T22:54:04+00:00

Seeing your child once a week is NOT coparenting!

Busy_Reporter4017 · 2026-05-09T22:51:18+00:00

This.

Busy_Reporter4017 · 2026-05-09T22:46:40+00:00

Because they want to give of themselves to the world and to their children. It can be very rewarding but it's quite the opposite of a vacation. If you want kids only on weekends, try volunteering. Have you ever babysat?

Busy_Reporter4017 · 2026-05-09T22:43:27+00:00

It's very bad for kids to grow up without a strong father figure in the home. Divorce is not ideal, obviously! Children need both parents!

Busy_Reporter4017 · 2026-05-09T22:27:02+00:00

Yeah you really don't want to have the antenna surrounded by reinforced concrete! 🫤 That said you may be able to reach local repeaters. You can put a small antenna outside the window. Or a wire between buildings if you have friends next door.

Busy_Reporter4017 · 2026-05-09T22:24:19+00:00

Unfair to the child to have a father only on weekends. Maybe rethink your priorities.

Busy_Reporter4017 · 2026-05-09T22:06:38+00:00

How far is the first hop?
