The way the Slovak government is already attacking the media and opposition... I'm afraid we've got a new Russia in our hands...

So there is some media coverage because of McDonalds's self service kiosks no longer having an user interface in Russian.

Aaaawwww... let me play a sad song on my world's smallest violin.

ETV reported Ukraine won the televote in Estonia.

Although chances are the winner will be... #Israel 😈

If only enough people keep boycofting #Eurovision 🤣

@arnie_dxer Here's the thing - people that are boycotting are not televoting. And people that do not are flooding the lines with sympathy votes for I****l.

Yep... watched also the intermission with hosts. Cameras seem to be running on 25 fps.

@es5nhc@meteo.social avatar

@arnie_dxer Youtube is full 25 fps. On TV at least the graphics seem 50 fps. God forbid this became a trend, especially as the people who grew up with Youtube reach adulthood. It is a serious downgrade that we are taking TV to cinema framerates IMHO, especially for live events.

Looks like somebody just sent up a satellite. First time for me to see this with my own eyes.

Just minutes to go. Light looks like an extremely underexposed photo. See you on the other side!

Interesting that not all HD stations identify using their FCC callsign. Example from Lone Star 92.5.

Also, I am quite a radio nerd as evident from having bought a radio for the US market(Estonian FM also plays quite well and it supports international channel spacing).

Looks like the orc attack is getting picked up by a Raspberry Shake in Kyiv as well

Last week, I tried to find 50 things to do with a Software Defined Radio! 📻

It was quite an adventure! Here's a blog post about what I found, and how you can follow along:

@blinry Very interesting. However got a few corrections - the digital radio on 178 MHz is DAB+(probably the nation-wide multiplex on channel 5C), not DRM+ which is on the same band as FM radio. And wavelength decreases as frequency increases, so when going to shortwave from VHF, the wavelength increases - hence bigger antenna. Anyways, loved the shots fired at the local 'security by obscurity' laws.

Emmm what happened to FMSCAN?!

It now requires me to log into FMLIST or MWLIST...

Not that it's a problem to me 😝 but if you just want to check what you might be hearing on a particular frequency or generate those fancy maps of a transimtter or an entire radio network's coverage, just for fun -- then it might be a hurdle.

@arnie_dxer More like commercial users scraping data: https://www.rundfunkforum.de/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=62742

Anyways, the messaging sure seems like: If you're not a DXer, don't bother registering.

@arnie_dxer I managed to finally get OpenWebRx+ to talk with my Airspy HF+ Discovery. Quite fun to monitor digital modes on the move.

@arnie_dxer Oh, actually, turns out I had installed the original OpenWebRX first, now setting up the OpenWebRX+.

As a Geography BSc, I couldn't help but notice. The coordinates on Zelenskyy's clothing appear to be in the middle of Ukraine. 46.3794°N 31.1656°E.

Marker on a map placed at the coordinates on Zelenskyy's clothes.

Looks like indeed good skip tonight. And... the moment NHK signed on at 11945, there was another aftershock, causing shaking up to Shindo 4.

Some MW DXing: Picked up Kabul after a long time on 1107 kHz. Quite a good signal this evening. Looks like the station is called Radio Afghanistan again? I heard an ID of Afghanistan Mili Radio.
