Remember when everyone was mad at Trump about immigrant treatment in camps and then Biden did nothing but write a memo about immigration? Well turns out having the same facilities with the same personnel and less media attention means worse results. And for all that, we get dems pushing the strictest and most right wing immigration bills they ever have, and still not getting it done. I've come to the conclusion America and Americans don't really care about migrants unless they can use it as a wedge against the other side.

Yeah, we're not too too far removed from the last solar minimum either, so we got a good deal of solar cycle left before the next minimum too. I say this all the time but hams are the coolest sun worshiping group I've ever been a part of.
Its nominally called a 'random wire antenna' but the caveat is that it needs a tuner and if the wire length is too close to a length that makes it naturally resonate without a tuner, the antenna will not work.
Ive heard people say that they can get their random wire antennas fed right into the g90 with little issue, I don't have the tech specs but Id assume its near 9 to 1 if their random wire is working, and that's made me curious to try the unit since I don't have any SDR yet. The unit only pumps out 20w max so thats probably a factor. On my Yaesu ft 891where I can run 100w easy I use an external LC tuner and a counterpoise to mitigate rf buildup on the chassis though.
Im seeing more sstv memes lately and im all for it, about time I say.
Never been a better time to get into HF communications I think. You can get fairly inexpensive (comparatively anyway) Chinese software defined radio by Xiegu, and literally just stick a long wire in the back as an antenna and since the radio has an auto tuner, all you need to do is get that wire as high in the air as possible. I don't have that radio so I use a manual tuner but a setup like that is the only way I can get on the air from my current house.

Haitians did eat his moms pussy though so I see how he got confused.
Shame it wasn't Saudi Arabia mad at him, we'd be sending em saws.
