Rodney Atkins is the kind of country artist who proves the best songs usually come from the life you actually live. After a seven-year break from releasing a full studio album, Rodney returns with True South, not because he stepped away from music, but because life got bigger. Marriage, fatherhood, raising three sons with his wife Rose Falcon, and building a family became the story he wanted to tell. The man behind anthems like “If You’re Going Through Hell,” “It’s America,” and “Take a Back Road” helped define 2000s country radio with six No. 1 hits, but these days, his biggest role is being a dad. His song “Watching You” wasn’t just a hit… it was a real-life snapshot of parenting and the little moments that become everything. Now, with True South, Rodney Atkins raises a longneck to the things that matter most: love, family, memories, and the life he’s built.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We had a quiet week geomagnetically, but the solar flux has also declined. Over the past week, the Kp index never rose above 2 or 3, with only one three-hour excursion to 5 on Thursday the 11th of June. This bodes well for HF propagation, but the solar flux index has declined from its recent high of 148 on Thursday the 4th of June to be in the 110 to 120 range over the past week. As a result, the Sun is looking a little sparse when it comes to sunspots. This, coupled with the summer doldrums, has seen maximum useable frequencies, or MUFs, drop and DX has been limited to 21MHz and below. The 10m band has been mainly open to Sporadic-E, with some multi-hop openings giving the appearance of F2-region propagation at times. DX to be worked over the coming week includes: D44EC from Cape Verde; PJ2/PH2M from Curacao; 3G0YM on Easter Island; FS/K9EL operating from St Martin; 5R8EC from Madagascar; and OX3LX working from Greenland. Next week, NOAA predicts that the solar flux index may increase slightly to be in the 130 to 140 range, although this will need some new additional sunspots. Geomagnetic conditions are forecast to be quiet with a maximum Kp index of 2. We may see a slight upturn on Tuesday the 23rd of June, when the Kp index is predicted to rise to 4, mainly due to an enhanced solar wind. To recap, Summer is a time when paradoxically daytime maximum useable frequencies, or MUFs, tend to be lower than in autumn and winter. However, nighttime MUFs can be higher, with the potential for the 30 and 20m bands to be open all night. ARRL Field Day will run from 1800UTC on Saturday the 27th of June to 2100UTC on Sunday the 28th of June. This may be an opportunity to work some US portable stations who will be very pleased to contact you. And now the VHF and up propagation news from G3YLA and G4BAO The weather models are a bit undecided about how the coming week will evolve. One option is for predominantly high pressure and a chance of some summer tropo, which may persist over the sea, but is limited inland by daytime heating.  Tropo operators should focus on nighttime conditions, unless located right on the coasts. The other weather model suggests that low pressure will probably win out over northern areas and occasionally in the south, so rain scatter may be likely and it would need some heavy thundery showers to get the best results.  High summer is not the best for aurora. The Kp index ideally needs to be at least above 5 before we can get excited. Meteor scatter operators have been making use of the decaying Arietids from earlier in June. The second shower of interest this month is the June Bootids. The window of activity will be from tomorrow, the 22nd, to Thursday the 2nd of July with the peak on Saturday the 27th of June. The Sporadic-E season is progressing with most days offering something from the 10 and 6m bands within Europe. However, there are limited possibilities on the 2m band. As usual, digital modes will be the first to see results, so use the FT8 paths as a guide for the other modes which should follow as the Sporadic-E intensifies. Multi-hop paths do happen regularly but require beams and a lot of luck for several Sporadic-E patches to align. This means the best policy will be listening at the right time. This is in the morning for the paths to the Far East and in the evening for those to the States and Caribbean. EME now and Moon declination is decreasing again, going negative today, the 21st, with path losses rising now the Moon is past perigee. This means shortening Moon windows and lower peak Moon elevation as the week progresses. 144MHz sky temperature is low, rising to moderate by Friday the 26th of June. And that's all from the propagation team this week.

On Saturday the 10th of October 2026, Tim will return to the RSGB Convention and in his presentation he will touch on whether the future turned out as expected! Tim is currently serving his fourth term as IARU President and the RSGB is delighted to welcome him back as the keynote speaker. Buy your ticket for the RSGB Convention by going to rsgb.org/convention  As well as the keynote, the Society has a speaker programme that will bring radio amateurs a wide-ranging selection of lectures. Whether you are keen to enhance your knowledge on propagation, FT8, or you want to learn more on VHF and above, there is something for everyone. You can keep up to date with the latest speakers by visiting the Convention speaker page. The RSGB Convention takes place between the 9th and 11th of October 2026 at Kents Hill Conference Centre in Milton Keynes. The RSGB is committed to fostering an inclusive, respectful and accessible amateur radio community in which all individuals can participate fully and safely. It aims not only to prevent discrimination, but to actively remove barriers to participation, promote equity, and create an environment where diversity is valued and inclusion is embedded in all that we do. The Society reviews all its policies regularly and this week it has published an updated Equality, Diversity and Inclusion policy. The policy has clearer language to explain the responsibilities of Directors, staff, volunteers, RSGB members and affiliated clubs, as well as participants in RSGB events, training, and programmes. The policy also applies to all RSGB platforms and environments. The Society encourages all members and affiliated clubs to read the policy. You can find it on the RSGB website at rsgb.org/policies  The RSGB will review this policy at least annually and monitor its implementation to ensure continuous improvement. In April, the RSGB Exams Team published the entire Full licence exam question bank on the RSGB website. This means that anyone studying for their Full licence has this valuable resource at their fingertips. The interface also allows users to generate their own mock examinations from the question bank. Feedback by radio amateurs has said how useful the resource is and that anyone studying for their exam should take a look. To get started go to rsgb.org/exam-questions  The RSGB Examinations Standards Committee has also prepared some FAQs to support the publication of the question bank. You can access these on the Exam FAQs web page. Have you seen the ‘About the RSGB' playlist on the Society's YouTube channel?

Now the radio propagation report, compiled by G0KYA, G3YLA and G4BAO on Thursday the 11th of June 2026 Last week we warned you about a potential geomagnetic disturbance caused by a triple coronal mass ejection, or CME, from the Sun. As it turned out, the Kp index rose to 6.33 and poor HF conditions ensued, just in time for RSGB National Field Day. Luckily, Sunday the 7th wasn't quite so bad, but it did show how a Kp index rise can damage HF propagation. A further CME warning has since been cancelled, but we are not out of the woods just yet. A long-duration mid-level C-Flare was observed in the northeast quadrant of the Sun, peaking at just after midnight on Thursday the 11th of June. A CME with a possible Earth-directed component is possible, which could lead to a Kp index rise. Meanwhile, the solar flux index declined to 124 on Thursday the 11th, as predicted, but that's still enough for some DX potential. Sporadic-E has been providing lots of entertainment, so make the most of it during June, which is one of the best months for Sporadic-E activity. Settled geomagnetic conditions, with a low Kp index, appear to provide the best time for Sporadic-E. DX to be worked this week includes 5Z4/MM0ZBH in Kenya which is active until the 15th of June. The station has been spotted on the 10m band using FT8 and on the 20m band using CW and SSB. PJ2/PH2M is active from Curacao until the 29th of June using mainly FT8 and some SSB. D4OL from Cape Verde is active on FT8 and FT4 until Friday the 22nd of June. Finally, look out for the FS/K9EL station from St Martin which is active until Wednesday the 24th of June. While we are in this period of Summer thunderstorms, a reminder that it may be a good idea to unplug the antennas from your HF radios when not in use. But make sure you do this before any storm approaches! Next week, NOAA predicts that the solar flux index will be in the 120 to 130 range. Quiet geomagnetic conditions are forecast all week, with a maximum Kp index of 3. But be aware of CMEs which are not easily predicted. Any solar flare and subsequent CME could upset the apple cart, so keep an eye on solarham.com for up-to-date news. And now the VHF and up propagation news from G3YLA and G4BAO There have been some very good Sporadic-E conditions recently. This was particularly true at 50MHz with openings at lunchtime and into the evening towards the USA on Tuesday the 9th and Wednesday the 10th. There was also an opening into Japan during the morning of Thursday the 11th of June. 70MHz has seen openings, mainly to eastern Europe and Spain. Notably we haven't seen much in the way of 144MHz Sporadic-E yet, but QSOs have been made by a lucky few. All this Sporadic-E activity has probably been aided by the extra long-lived metallic ions from meteors of the daytime Arietids, an important shower in early June.  The other ingredient often associated with Sporadic-E is the presence of jet streams, which are very effective at generating turbulence that can propagate up to the E region and aid Sporadic-E formation. The coming week looks to be reasonably set up with jet stream activity. This is probably more relevant for the northern half of Europe so may favour Scandinavia and the Baltic, with the occasional opportunity farther south. As for meteor scatter, there is a gap in the calendar and it's probably a case of relying upon random activity which tends to peak around dawn. Rain scatter may fare better with a chance of showers, especially in northern parts of the country. The solar conditions have recently been at the low end of the scale, with a Kp index between 1 and 3 which is typical of high summer. This also reduces the chances of radio auroras. There will be a period of high pressure today, the 14th, before low pressure returns to northern Britain next week, although the south may stay close to higher pressure. This offers a chance of some tropo conditions. EME now, and Moon declination continues to increase to a maximum tomorrow, the 15th, with path losses falling towards minimum at perigee. 144MHz sky temperature is moderate, becoming high tomorrow, the 15th, with the Sun close to the Moon, before falling back to low again from Wednesday. And that's all from the propagation team this week.

COMMUNITY CONNECT PODCAST | BACKROAD '26 What a ride. What a weekend. What a crew.Backroad '26 is officially wrapped , and what an unforgettable three days it was.23 cyclists.300+ kilometres of riding. Tekapo → Ohau → Kurow → Hakataramea Pass → back to Tekapo. And somehow… not a single flat tyre across the entire trip (and just ONE mechanical!). We were treated to near-perfect conditions, big skies, stunning landscapes, and (mostly) kind winds. The kind of riding that fills your cup. Day 2 gets an honourable mention… honestly felt like three days packed into one. Starting beside the breathtaking Lake Ohau, with Aoraki / Mt Cook making a special guest appearance at breakfast , we went straight to work. A steady climb straight out the gate, but the kind you want to do, with views stretching back across the basin to Ben Ohau. From there, it just kept delivering. Epic chunky descents through golden tussock. Rolling into Quailburn Road with pacelines flying and smiles everywhere. A few detours to the Clay Cliffs. Others making a beeline for the Wrinkly Rams for a well-earned early lunch.And just when you thought it couldn't get any better… the Sailors Cutting climb. Stops, photos, deep breaths, soaking it all in. Truly magnificent. Then the drop down to the dam wall, lunch number two (of course), and a gritty push along Aviemore into a headwind that just wouldn't quit. One last sharp climb with 5km to go… and then rolling into Kurow, straight to the Waitaki Hotel for a cold one, perfectly timed for the Warriors kickoff.Moments like these are what it's all about.A massive thank you to our incredible supporters who loaded up the swag bags (a definite trip highlight!):PURE NUTRITIONEM'S & OSMTHAT'S ITSQUIRT CYCLINGYou helped every kilometre, thank you.In this episode, we also sit down with TEAMCPNZ Coach Amanda, sharing her coaching insights.Most importantly, to the crew. The laughs, the grit, the support, the shared experience… that's what makes Backroad so special. We're diving deeper into all the stories, laughs, and behind-the-scenes moments on the latest Community Connect Podcast episode. And yes… planning for Backroad '27 is already underway. Trust us — it's going to be a cracker.CPNZ MEDIARichard Greer – @ric.greerhttps://www.teamcp.co.nz@teamcpnzhttps://www.facebook.com/teamcpnzrichard@teamcp.co.nz

“Nepo baby” is an easy label to apply to anyone who joins a family business. What we rarely talk about is the pressure to prove yourself and the effort it takes to be taken seriously. This week on SUPERWOMEN, we sat down with Avery Hale Smith, Chief Experience Officer at Backroads, to talk about the experience of working inside a family business. Avery opens up about the challenge of stepping into a company with such a rich legacy. Avery reveals how she navigated Backroads through the chaos of COVID, when everything was falling apart, and how she rebuilt the company from the ground up. From handling massive layoffs to keeping the business alive with no roadmap, she learned that surviving crises takes a whole lot of grit.  Episode Guide: (00:00) Meet Avery Hale Smith, Chief Experience Officer at Backroads (01:44) What is Backroads?

A resident of a heavily-trafficked Ennis backroad fears he wouldn't be able to get out of his driveway in the event of a medical emergency. Homeowners on the link road between the Quin Road and the N85 are calling for "joined-up thinking" from Clare County Council regarding alleviating traffic congestion on the route. Known locally as the Old Bog Road, the Kilbricken Road is the Quin Road's only connection to the dual carriageway. Oliver Plunkett, who's been living on the road for 30 years, says he's often unable to leave his house because of the build-ups outside his gateway.

In this episode of the Dover Download podcast, Deputy City Manager Christopher Parker chats with project managers Jamie Stevens and Matt Gibbons about two major infrastructure projects. Stevens discusses the Henry Law Avenue and Payne Street reconstruction project, which was originally designed in 2004 but paused for waterfront development. The project design is now complete and expected to go out to bid in January 2026, with construction breaking ground sometime next year. The biggest change since 2004 is enhanced stormwater management, including a massive underground treatment facility that will be installed beneath the former swimming pool area in Henry Law Park.Gibbons provides updates on the Court and Union streets reconstruction project, which began after Labor Day 2024 with contractor SUR Construction. This complete roadway reconstruction evolved from an original water main replacement project and now includes subsurface utility replacement, new five-foot-wide ADA-compliant concrete sidewalks with granite curbing, and improved traffic patterns. The 5,000-foot Court Street project and 800-foot Union Street section will be completed in phases through late spring or early summer 2027. Notable improvements include reconfiguring the Back Road and Court Street intersection from a Y-intersection to a T-intersection.In This Week in Dover History, we learn about Dennis Bentley, a Dover educator who taught grades 5 through 12 during his 34-year career. Bentley began as a high school English teacher in 1971, later taught at Dover Middle School for 18 years, and served as principal at both Woodman Park School and Garrison Elementary School before retiring in 2005.

Jaylen Brown triple-doubled, Walshy double-doubled in the best game of his career (so far), and Payton Pritchard shot the lights out as the Celtics held on for a spirited win in Cleveland. So, do we know what this team is yet? After tonight, we may just be getting closer.

Tonight's guests, Beth Kolasinski and Nolan Shelby, are mother and son. In late February, of 2018, the two of them were heading home from Nolan's last high school basketball game, in Flint, Michigan. They live in Howell, Michigan, so they had a fairly long drive to get home. Beth doesn't like driving on highways, so she prefers to take back roads, instead of driving on highways, so she took back roads home from the basketball game that night. When they were about 25 miles from home, they were in a desolate area where there was nothing but a lot of open fields. It was raining that night, so their view of the countryside wasn't the best. What they did get a view of that night, however, was something they never expected to see. We hope you'll tune into tonight's show, so you can listen to them recount their sighting. It's a night they'll never forget.If you've had a Sasquatch sighting and would like to be a guest on the show, please go to BigfootEyewitness.com and let me know.

The Associated Press called the presidential election in favor of former president Donald Trump at 5:34 am on November 6th, the morning after Election Day. But even before that, political pundits and TV reporters had plenty to say about rural voters and their role in re-electing Trump.  Now that the numbers are in, host Olivia Weeks examines these assertions in the latest episode of Backroad Ballots, and takes a closer look at what happened on November 5th.  In this bonus episode, Weeks talks with Tim Marema, the editor-in-chief of the Daily Yonder, and Sarah Melotte, the Daily Yonder's data correspondent. Their conversation focuses on high-level election results and the rural voter's role in deciding the outcomes of the presidential race and state-wide ballot measures.

In this podcast episode, we review the Alpinestars Convex Tech Fleece zip-up hoodie and the Alpinestars Treq Windbreaker.  We continually test and review products to carry in the Law Abiding Biker Store. These are a couple of items that made the cut.  We also talk about Lurch riding an expert section of the Backroad Discovery Route (BDR).  We are lucky that section two of the Washington BDR runs right through our backyard.   SUPPORT US AND SHOP IN THE OFFICIAL LAW ABIDING BIKER STORE The Alpinestars Convex Fleece has garnered attention as a versatile choice for those who need a hoodie that combines comfort with performance-driven design. Known for their high-quality motorsport and adventure gear, Alpinestars has delivered a fleece that caters to everyday wearers and motorcycle enthusiasts alike. Let's dive into why the Convex Fleece has become a go-to for style, warmth, and functionality. Key Features Material and Comfort: Made from a premium blend of cotton and polyester, the Alpinestars Convex Fleece provides a cozy feel and excellent breathability. The material is soft against the skin, ensuring comfort during long rides or extended wear throughout the day. Design and Fit: The hoodie sports a streamlined, athletic fit that hugs the body without restricting movement. This modern design appeals to both active users and style-conscious buyers. The Convex Fleece is available in multiple color options, making it easy to pair with any outfit, on or off the road. Practical Features for Riders: Alpinestars designed this fleece with practical features in mind. It includes a full-length front zipper for temperature control and hand-warmer pockets that double as storage for small essentials. Reflective detailing enhances visibility, adding a safety element for those who may wear it while riding in low-light conditions. Durability: Alpinestars is known for durability, and the Convex Fleece lives up to this reputation. Reinforced stitching and quality materials ensure that this hoodie can withstand the wear and tear of both everyday use and more rugged outdoor adventures. Performance on the Road For motorcycle riders, the Alpinestars Convex Fleece excels in providing a balance between warmth and mobility. While it's not a full-on riding jacket, the fleece is ideal for layering under protective gear or for casual rides in mild weather. The moisture-wicking properties help keep you dry, and the fleece lining offers warmth without being bulky, making it a great choice for cooler rides. Pros and Cons Pros: Stylish and versatile design suitable for casual and active wear. High-quality materials ensure long-lasting comfort. Thoughtful features like reflective elements for added safety. Breathable and warm, perfect for layering or standalone use in mild weather. Cons: Not specifically designed as protective gear for riding. May not provide enough insulation for extremely cold weather without layering. Final Verdict: Is the Alpinestars Convex Fleece Worth It? For those who appreciate functional fashion and are fans of the Alpinestars brand, the Convex Fleece is a worthwhile investment. This hoodie provides excellent comfort, style, and practical features that make it a staple in any wardrobe, especially for riders. It's perfect for layering under jackets or wearing on its own, making it a year-round choice for anyone looking for a quality fleece that doesn't compromise on performance or looks. Whether you're hitting the road or just need a reliable everyday hoodie, the Alpinestars Convex Fleece combines the brand's heritage of quality with modern style and versatility.

The BDR is a type of scenic or adventurous road trip, often focusing on less-traveled, rural, or off-the-beaten-path routes that offer a more intimate and immersive travel experience. Typically, these routes cater to those seeking adventure, natural beauty, and cultural experiences that are off the main tourist path. Backroad discovery routes are popular for road-trippers, motorcyclists, and outdoor enthusiasts who appreciate a slower, more scenic journey over high-speed highways. In the U.S., BDR are specific, mapped-out routes for adventure motorcyclists and off-road vehicle enthusiasts. These routes: Span several states, such as Colorado, Idaho, Utah, and Washington. Are usually designed for multi-day trips. Incorporate various terrains like mountains, deserts, and forests. Are mostly unpaved, involving dirt roads, forest trails, and rocky passes. Include both challenging sections for experienced riders and easier paths for beginners. Each route is usually developed with local input to highlight scenic and historical locations and to support rural economies by guiding travelers toward small towns and local businesses. These routes typically have resources, including GPS tracks, maps, and travel guides, available to help riders safely navigate and enjoy the journey.

In the newest episode of the Backroad Ballots podcast, we asked our staff what they are paying close attention to between now and the election.
