    Drone Hits Helicopter

    I have an story that kind of applies. I used to ride off road motorcycles as a younger man. Lots of fun! I was living in NJ. Home of the bad attitude and way too much government :) But, to their credit there was a public Off Road Park that you could ride motorcycles and 4X4s. This was a big deal...

    Drone Hits Helicopter

    I just posted this on another thread. You can't legislate, teach, cajole, inform, preach to stupid people. Stupid is as stupid does. The idiots of the world are incorrigible. Catch them and make an example of them.

    Solar Flares - did anyone notice ?

    The Amateur Radio HF Bands were almost dead yesterday. I heard a handful of stations and could not contact any of them. The impact was severe on HF. Up there in the higher frequencies of the Drone world. Not so much. Keep on yanking and banking.

    Solar Flares - did anyone notice ?

    Solar flare activity typically affects lower frequency bands. Such as Ham Radio. If strong enough can also induce noise in the higher bands where drones exist.
