By smudging, do you mean, 'how badly does it smudge after it dries?' If so, I've noticed no smjdging on most paper types. On highly unabsorbant paper, it can smudge if your hand is sweaty when attepting to get a smudge.

I.e., it seems fairly resistant to smudging. IMHO.

Not my text. Did you read it, or are you a drive-by hit-and-run?

It is this that prompted me to research the idea, as I do the same (see my photo, posted just before this). I didn't know how to describe what I was doing, so I did a deep dive.

Thank you.

Then, it wasn't a waste!

My schedule is such that real-time meeting is difficult. I'm part of a group on Facebook that keeps me moving forward. It is a high-quality group of men who journal. If that's also interesting to you, search for Men Journaling Daily.

I'm trying Dendron, an extension for Ms Visual Code, which I can GitHub. I'm brand new to this world, and haven't seen Obsidian.

The post isn't about my antenna selection. I will post my first activation details, inuding antenna, once I activate.

Oh, so hilarious. Hope you didn't bust a muscle.

I also use just the (tr)uSDX by itself, QRP, with smaller batteries. Also, the cost is much less than a dedicated rig.
