Brief Pre-Xmas Visit To The KONG-HQ

Driving in darkness with a full moon and clear skies during winter is a magic experience! But cold - down to -20C inland so I wasn't tempted to stop to take pictures until I arrived at the KONG-HQ. I'm amazed at how these 'night mode' settings on my mobile phone seem to magically transform a dark night, albeit moonlit, into almost broad daylight.


The aurora to my southwest is a sign of troubled RF conditions. Indeed, after a couple of useable days in the beginning of December, reception on polar paths is now very poor.

Anyway, part of the reason I went was to collect SDRs of different makes for a compatibility test at home. More as it happens.
