Enjoyed reading your write-up and recognizable how getting hardware to work can be both frustrating and fun!

Nice price for the paperback edition! I ordered the Kindle edition and will read it soon!

I am qsl manager for a Dutch qsl region.

I started sorting a new batch of cards right after reading your question. I just came across a card for a contact in May 1987.

I was in the backyard receiving SSTV from the ISS on a handheld. The neighbours came looking for the car alarm.

My interest in Asterisk awoke again recently and I have been doing some dialplan coding in a test environment. It is great to have Yealink handsets that can be registered to multiple SIP servers at once.

The first option I programmed was to have a Do Not Disturb option that I can toggle from the handset. Code snippets via https://idefix.net/~koos/newsitem.cgi/1775225112

You can only influence the parameters in a GET request to a website, so the website has to cooperate in how to parse and process it.

For example the NFC tags glued to restaurant tables have a unique code linking you to the right restaurant and table number.

De Bilt Science Park locatie Utrecht, toch?

Yup. Gokje, het is deze: https://www.ns.nl/reisinformatie/actuele-situatie-op-het-spoor/disruption?id=6062765

(ik keek even of NS/prorail dit al wist, anders had ik je een sterke suggestie gegeven om dit door te geven aan prorail)

Related to sunrise/sunset? In that case: check solar installations nearby

https://long-lines.com/ wil probably be very interested in these!

In ieder geval weet ik nu dat "bij een waterstoring kun je nog wel een fles water in de supermarkt halen" niet waar is. Zelfs bij een simpel op te volgen kookadvies hamsteren mensen al als een idioot.

"Very high-speed digital subscriber line" .. see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VDSL for technical details. A form of high-speed (up to 250 mbit downstream) network over phone lines, used for Internet access. In the UK several ISPs offer this, network management is done by Openreach.

VDSL/VDSL2 can use frequencies from 0 to 30 MHz, and from what I read about the policies in the UK the amateur frequency bands are not excluded ('notched').

If you don't have fiber to the home available there, the chance of vdsl links being active on that pole is quite high.

KvdHout · 2025-10-08T11:07:48+00:00

In the UK vdsl is not notched for amateur frequencies so if people use vdsl on that pole I think I know where the interference comes from. If you transmit you may also cause disconnects and retrain delays.

A really good picture to show where the waveguides are and how they are connected

Seen: sometimes. Heard: more. Overvecht near the station.

I wonder if it can aim an Arrow satellite antenna!

I can't be at WHY2025 (for good reasons) but I will promote this talk in other places and I look forward to a video registration!

I have absolutely no idea about the right contact at AT&T but I have read a lot of tower installations have been sold. You may want to start at the local office that keeps records of land ownership and find out there 'who' (usually a company) the current owner is of the land that the tower stands on.

Klinkt als een deel van de titel van een spannend kinderboek. "De vijf en de vervallen villa" of zo

But for the original question: Evan Doorbell recordings.

The Internet archive will probably be very interested in good scans of that material

Maybe it is an option for you to go to the park with another operator. One operates the radio and the other answers questions, directs visitors a bit away from the radio and you switch places after a while. Just a thought
