Over 100 currently valid callsigns for the Bailiwick of Guernsey are listed, encompassing full, intermediate, and foundation licenses, alongside special event and club station calls. The resource clarifies various callsign types, such as 2U0*** for intermediate licensees with a 50-watt limit and GU0*** for full licensees operating up to **400 watts**. This detailed compilation also includes specific QSL routing instructions for visiting operators and past residents, often referencing their home callsigns like _G4DIY_ or _DJ8NK_. The callbook further acknowledges "silent keys," providing a respectful record of former Guernsey amateurs, complete with their callsigns and dates of passing where available. It also lists local repeaters and provides important QSL bureau information, noting that only US dollar bills are accepted for direct QSLs, not English stamps or Euros. For full addresses, the resource directs users to _QRZ.com_, emphasizing that the provided information is offered in good faith.

Constructing an End-Fed Half-Wave (EFHW) antenna offers a practical solution for HF operators seeking a multiband wire antenna without the need for extensive radial systems. This design typically employs a high-impedance transformer at the feed point, matching the antenna's inherent high impedance to a 50-ohm coaxial feedline. The article specifically details a 2012 approach, focusing on a transformer with a 49:1 turns ratio, which is a common configuration for EFHW antennas. The resource outlines the construction of a wire element cut for a half-wavelength on the lowest desired band, with specific coil arrangements enabling operation on harmonically related bands such as 40m, 20m, and 10m. It discusses the physical dimensions and winding details for the matching transformer, often utilizing a ferrite toroid core to achieve the necessary impedance transformation. The content provides insights into the operational principles and practical considerations for deploying such an antenna, including methods for tuning and optimizing performance across multiple amateur radio bands. While acknowledging that the presented information from 2012 may be superseded by newer insights, it serves as a foundational reference for understanding EFHW antenna theory and construction.

Demonstrates the _Widget DX HB9HBY_ software, a compact desktop application for amateur radio operators, providing essential real-time information. The widget displays UTC time, current HF propagation conditions, local weather, and thunderstorm risk. It also integrates radio-related links and offers advanced PRO functions, such as a DX map, HF noise radar, IBP beacon synchronization, contest heatmap, aurora radar, and a rare DX radar. The software is available for Windows 10/11 and Linux, with a macOS version planned for future release, and supports both French and English interfaces. Author HB9HBY highlights the widget's simple installation process and automatic update capabilities, which can be silent for minor fixes or include notifications for significant changes. The free version provides core functionalities, while a 15-day free trial unlocks the PRO features. A lifetime PRO license is available for a one-time payment of CHF 10, activating advanced tools that help operators make quicker decisions at the station by correlating propagation, UTC, DX activity, and local conditions, though results remain indicative and require confirmation via listening or tools like _RBN_ or _PSKReporter_.

Hostilog, developed by DF1LX using Python 3.5 and PyQT5, is a logging application designed for high-speed QSO data entry, achieving rates of 300–400 QSOs per hour from handwritten logbooks.

It incorporates a cluster window with RegEx filtering capabilities and facilitates UDP transfer of QSO data to _DXkeeper_ from the _DXLab Suite_. The program supports basic rig control via _Hamlib_, with configuration examples provided for radios like the TS-590S using `rigctld`. Hostilog can process 50,000-line ADIF files in under 10 seconds and includes features for combining and sorting ADIF data. While primarily a Windows application, it runs under _WINE_ on Linux, with specific notes on Ubuntu compatibility. Recent updates, including a version from August 28, 2024, address bugs and improve UI, with documentation available in both German and English.

The *SPACE* Amateur Radio over Internet Protocol (RoIP) system offers public audio transmissions from NASA Mission Control and astronauts, primarily for educational purposes. This service streams NASA public media sources, including *Artemis II* and the ISS public audio channel 2 feed, which predominantly features English communications. Astronaut activities on the ISS typically occur between 0700 UTC and 19:00 UTC, with transmissions most common during early mornings USA time, alongside special events such as launches or spacewalks. Users can connect to the live stream via EchoLink to the *SPACE* conference, via IRLP to the 0100 experimental reflector, or via Allstar to node 516221. EchoLink connections utilize the GSM CODEC, while IRLP and other connections default to uncompressed or u-law CODEC. The service notes that long periods of silence are common, and NASA audio sources can be periodically unavailable or noisy. Daily recordings of these transmissions are published at space.rfnet.link/recordings/, available as .ogg audio files for direct playback or .m3u8 playlist files for network streaming in applications like VLC. Each playlist file provides a list of timestamped audio transmissions, allowing users to review specific segments of interest.

The resource details HF time broadcast stations, categorizing them into "Standard Frequency & Time Signal Broadcast" and "Time Signal Broadcast" types. Standard Frequency & Time Signal Broadcasts, like those on **2.5 MHz** and **5 MHz**, originate from official time observatories and offer continuous standard frequencies, time signals, and often voice announcements, potentially including meteorological data. These stations operate in the SW band. Time Signal Broadcasts also provide continuous time signals, typically with voice announcements, but without the strict observatory origin requirement. The list includes specific frequencies such as 3.33 MHz, 4.996 MHz, 7.85 MHz, 9.996 MHz, 14.67 MHz, 14.996 MHz, 15.006 MHz, and 20 MHz, alongside the primary standard frequencies. Each entry specifies the station's ID time, call sign, geographic coordinates, and operational notes, including languages like _English_, Chinese, Portuguese, Korean, and Spanish. Some entries also indicate decommissioning dates, such as the station on 3.33 MHz scheduled for 2026-06-22.
