Someone is getting fed up with stochastic parrot bs passed off as knowledge and insight from fellow humans.

Finding “don’t send me unsolicited e-qsls, I removed the email address from my QRZ profile to avoid spam” is becoming a common occurrence, maybe I should also do that.
It’s 19:27 local time and I’m receiving IZ3DVW/B and IQ5VK/B 80m beacons, 1W and 10mW respectively.
I am satisfied with the antenna work.
DX is relative, from here Scandinavia QRP (both from and to there) is very difficult, every time I get some activator just above the noise is a reason to celebrate.

@oz1lqo@techhub.social doesn’t that happen when you try to force a PL-259 into an N socket?
As with every #CQWPX I'm already getting bored. Every single station is a new multiplier, mostly European.
#CQWPXCW was a bust, not a blast. Everyone brought out of their drawers callsigns with the most misleading prefixes, if there's no DX to be had I don't find it interesting.
Tiny log submitted as checklog, this will be my last WPX for a while.
Is it worth my time trying to put up an 80m vertical for CQ WPX CW or we’re too close to the summer to be useful?

@mw1cgg@mastodon.radio are you doing the migration thing, or do we need to follow manually?
