Send us a textSquid Game Season 3 on Netflix brings the brutal saga to a close with a sharp edge and emotional gravity. This final chapter sees Seong Gi-hun return not as a player, but as a man with a mission—to dismantle the twisted machinery behind the games. Across six tightly wound episodes, the show doubles down on moral ambiguity, betrayal, and the human cost of survival. Familiar faces resurface, past wounds are torn open, and justice becomes a blood-stained pursuit. It's not just about who survives anymore—it's about who can live with what they've done. The ending doesn't just tie up loose ends; it leaves scars—on characters and viewers alike.But Squid Game was always bigger than its plot. It reshaped global entertainment, proving that a Korean-language series could dominate the world's screens and spark global conversations about inequality, desperation, and the price of choice. Its legacy is etched not just in ratings or awards, but in culture—those green tracksuits, the haunting music, the symbolism of every game. Season 3 may mark the end of the story, but Squid Game's impact will echo for years. It didn't just go out with a bang—it signed off in blood and ink, sealing its place as one of the most daring and influential shows of our time.Remember to click on the link in the show for your 30 Day Free Audible Trial and help support DMR in the process! Support the showThe audio clips used in this podcast, including excerpts from movie/series/documentary trailers, are used under the principles of fair use and fair dealing for the purpose of criticism, commentary, and review.

GB2RS News Sunday, the 21st of September 2025 The news headlines: Secure your ticket for the RSGB 2025 Convention before online ticketing closes A reminder to identify yourself clearly when operating The RSGB Outreach Team launches its first official DMR Youth Net Tickets for the RSGB Convention at Kents Hill Conference Centre in Milton Keynes are still available to purchase online, but hurry as advance sales close on Saturday the 4th of October. You will be able to buy a Convention ticket on the door but not at the reduced rate that is available now. Your ticket will give you access to numerous presentations including two on the funding available to interesting and innovative amateur radio projects. The RSGB Legacy Fund supports a wide range of projects and Legacy Committee Chair, Richard Horton, G4AOJ will give some recent examples that have been allocated funding. He'll also talk you through how the application and approval process works. The California-based Amateur Radio Digital Communications foundation has its roots in amateur radio and the technology of internet communication. Steve Bunting, M0BPQ and Chris Smith, G1FEF will give an overview of ARDC's grants which are also open to international charities, non-profits, schools and universities. If you're thinking of a new project that would benefit amateur radio or help to bring it to new audiences, these are two presentations you won't want to miss! Find details on these and all the other Convention presentations via rsgb.org/convention  You'll also find a new web page outlining what else is happening during the weekend. If you're attending the Convention for the first time, then pop along to the RSGB's new ‘welcome desk' on the Friday evening from 6.30pm to 7.30pm and then from 8pm to 9pm. The desk is aimed at first-time or solo attendees, although anyone can come and say hello. A member of the RSGB HQ team and other RSGB volunteers will be on hand to greet you and introduce you to like-minded people, and act as a familiar face throughout the weekend if you need any help. The RSGB Convention takes place between the 10th and 12th of October. Every radio amateur knows that it is important to identify yourself clearly when operating. This includes the mandatory use of a Regional Secondary Locator, or RSL, if you hold an Intermediate callsign in the 2-series. For example, your callsign would start with 2E0 if you're in England or 2M0 if you're operating in Scotland. This mandatory use of the RSL is shown in the Ofcom licence conditions. You can find a link to that document on the RSGB licence updates web page at rsgb.org/licence-review Calling all young radio enthusiasts wherever you are in the world! The RSGB Outreach Team is thrilled to launch its first official DMR Youth Net. The first net will be on Tuesday the 30th of September at 1900UTC and the RSGB Youth Talk Group 23554 is available on the DVSPh and Brandmeister Networks. Whether you're just starting out or already love getting on the air, this bi-weekly net is your chance to build confidence speaking on the radio, connect with fellow young operators from around the world, and join in without needing to set up antennas at home. Hosted by RSGB Youth Outreach Team Leaders Chris Aitken, MM0WIC and Ben Lloyd, GW4BML, the net is designed to grow with you. As your skills and confidence develop, you could even take the mic and chair future sessions! We're also offering loan kits that include a DMR handset and hotspot to help schools and home educators get started. Just fill out the form at tinyurl.com/RSGByouth-net  and we'll be in touch. Tune in, speak up, and be part of something exciting! The RSGB National Radio Centre will be hosting the World War Two SOE station, GB1SOE in the foyer of the Centre on Saturday the 27th of September. On Sunday the 28th of September, it will also be hosting three special one-off broadcasts to mark the 70th anniversary of GB2RS, which will include a special greetings message from the RSGB President. The special event station GB70RS will be used for the pre- and post-News nets. Go to rsgb.org/gb70rs  for full details. For those visiting the Centre over the weekend, Bletchley Park is hosting one of its 1940s weekends.

Last week we said that it looked like someone had thrown a switch on the Sun and all the sunspots had vanished. Well, this week we're pleased to report they're back! We have eight sunspot groups, spread evenly throughout the Sun's hemispheres. Interestingly, the northern hemisphere sunspots are close to the equator, which is what you would expect at this point in the latter part of the solar cycle. The southern spots are somewhat higher in latitude, perhaps indicating that there might still be the potential for a double peak. On Thursday the 18th, the solar flux index stood at 147 and the Kp index at 2. This suggests that HF conditions might be pretty good, at least until the next geomagnetic disturbance. There have been no M- or X-class solar flares over the past week. The solar wind speed dropped from a high of 800 kilometres per second on Tuesday the 16th, to a more reasonable 538 kilometres per second on Thursday the 18th. However, the Bz has been pointing south at times, which can cause problems with a raised Kp index. The maximum useable frequency, or MUF, over a 3,000km path generally allows for operation between 21 and 24MHz during daylight and 7 and 10.1MHz at night. At 0845UTC on Thursday the 18th, a quick check of the NCDXF beacons on 21.150MHz showed reception of CS3B in Madeira and 4X6TU in Israel. On 24.930MHz, 4S7B in Sri Lanka, ZS6DN in South Africa, and CS3B in Madeira could be heard. On 28.200MHz the only audible beacon was 4X6TU in Israel. The NCDXF beacons are a quick way to check worldwide HF propagation in just three-minutes per band, from 20 to 10m. For more details visit ncdxf.org/beacon HF DX this week has included FP5KE on St Pierre and Miquelon, which is operating until the 26th of September. PJ7K on St. Maarten, which is active until the 22nd of September, was worked; and VK9NT on Norfolk Island, which is operating until the 27th of September, also made it into UK logbooks. Check the DX cluster for the latest spots. Next week NOAA predicts the solar flux index will remain in the range of 125 to 135. The Kp index is forecast to remain low at 2 all week. A coronal hole threatens to push the Kp index higher, perhaps late today, the 21st, or tomorrow, the 22nd.   And now the VHF and up propagation news from G3YLA and G4BAO The first part of the coming week will be under the influence of the unsettled weather pattern with lows and fronts affecting the British Isles. So, it feels like there will be a few more days for the GHz rain scatter folk to play. Be aware that even among low-pressure systems there can be fleeting moments of good Tropo. On Friday the 19th there were ideal Tropo conditions over southern Britain and south across Biscay to Spain as well as east across the North Sea. The big change takes place on Wednesday as an area of high pressure starts to build over the UK. This could last through to the end of the week. So, there is plenty of time to develop some good Tropo conditions over large parts of the UK and near-continent. There will probably be an elevated inversion some 1 or 2km above the surface. This will be caused by the high itself and may provide ducting conditions throughout the 24-hour period. This may be supported by temporary surface inversions overnight due to the ground cooling. These features tend to take a while to establish, which suggests that the latter part of the coming week may be the best time to operate. The effect will only just be starting to influence conditions over the western side of the UK for the SHF UK Activity Contest on Tuesday the 23rd. Regarding the aurora prospects, it feels like we should be keeping a watch throughout this autumn period when the Earth's magnetic field couples with the solar wind more effectively. Earlier last week the Kp reached 5, which is a good trigger to get interested in beaming north for those fluttery auroral signals. Meteor scatter remains in between events at the moment with no major showers in the period. So, it's random meteors only which, as we know, tend to favour the early morning, pre-dawn hours. We are outside the traditional Sporadic-E season now but, as you may have noticed on the Propquest graphs, there has been the occasional spike on the foEs plot up to 5MHz or so. This is plenty to generate some strong short-skip European signals on the HF bands, especially 10m. In the morning on Wednesday the 17th, Sporadic-E was probably triggered by the powerful jet stream moving east over the near continent. There may well be further occasions with strong jet streams during the next week, so keep checking the NVIS tab at propquest.co.uk to see if the foEs trace spikes again. Now for an EME update. Moon declination is decreasing, from its maximum on the 14th of September. The Moon's distance from Earth is also increasing until apogee on the 27th and 28th of September. This means path losses are growing over the next week. Sky noise will remain low until the 29th and 30th of September. And that's all from the propagation team this week.

GB2RS News Sunday, the 14th of September 2025 The news headlines: RCF Trustee, Andy Webster, G7UHN, on inspiring the next generation of radio amateurs The RSGB LoRa balloon is to be launched this week Will Richardson, 2E0WYA, has been co-opted to the RSGB Board as Vice Chair Radio Communications Foundation Trustee, Andy Webster, G7UHN, will be at this year's RSGB Convention to deliver a fascinating lecture on using radio technology to engage and inspire non-radio amateurs. In particular, he will look at this within Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths education settings, using the subject to connect with young people. Matthew Phillips, G6WPJ, will also be at the Convention, where he will be discussing the use of low-power software-defined radio to rejuvenate medium- and short-wave broadcasting. These are two of nearly 50 speakers who will be delivering engaging and topical presentations for Convention attendees.

Now the radio propagation report, compiled by G0KYA, G3YLA and G4BAO on Thursday the 11th of September As of Thursday, the 11th of September, it looked like someone had thrown a switch on the Sun to turn off all new sunspots! Unless there is a big change, there will be no sunspots visible on the Sun's surface today, the 14th. It is clear we are no longer at solar maximum. A bigger problem is a large coronal hole on the Sun's surface, which is rotating to be Earth facing. It is on the Sun's equator, so it is ideally placed for maximum disruption to the Earth. A high-speed solar wind stream should reach Earth by the 14th of September, and geomagnetic storming may be possible at higher latitudes. Expect maximum usable frequencies, or MUFs, to drop and trans-polar paths to be affected once the Kp index rises. HF is now starting to improve as we head towards mid-September. By 1000UTC, Propquest shows that the MUF over a 3,000km path can be as high as 31MHz, as long as the Kp index stays low. This should continue to improve as we head into October. The best DX last week continued to be T30TTT in Western Kiribati, this time on the 40 and 17m bands using FT8. 9J2FI in Zambia also put in an appearance on the 17m band using FT8. TZ4AM in Mali was spotted on the 15m band using SSB. For Morse enthusiasts, HC5AI in Ecuador was working on the 15m band using CW, according to the CDXC Slack chat group. NOAA predicts that the solar flux index will start the coming week at 125 but then gradually improve to reach 145 by the end of the week. As mentioned earlier, the Kp index is set to reach 4 or 5 between the 14th and 16th of September due to the coronal hole. And now the VHF and up propagation news from G3YLA and G4BAO The present spell of unsettled weather is likely to remain the main driver of weather-related propagation modes for the next week. Low-pressure systems are following the jet stream across the Atlantic and over the UK, which is a typical track for this time of the year. This means that we should expect to experience the odd example of rain scatter for the GHz operators, and occasional strong winds will start to test that we have our antennas in good order after the quieter weather during the summer. This is not to say that there won't be any Tropo, but we will have to look for it carefully. In a mobile weather pattern such as this, the periods of high pressure tend to act as separators between the lows and, as a result, they usually move with similar speed. This makes them short-lived and thus not particularly good at establishing strong inversions for Tropo. There are two low-grade possibilities. One is around Tuesday the 16th as a weak transient ridge moves across the country. The second will be as another weak ridge moves across on Friday, the 19th. The meteor scatter situation is still pretty much in a random activity state, although there was a minor shower of the Epsilon Perseids, which peaked on the 9th and may have a few left in the tail-off. However, in general, it's more realistic to assume we're dealing with random activity. Aurora, on the other hand, has been putting in an appearance lately, so keep watching the Kp index for values climbing above 5. Now for an update on EME. Today, the 14th, marks the Moon's maximum declination – its highest point in the sky. Perigee, when the Moon is at its closest point to Earth, was passed on September the 9th, so path losses are increasing. Sky noise is low and will remain so until the 20th to 22nd, when the new Moon is very close to the Sun. And that's all from the propagation team this week.

Send us a textWelcome back to DMR!Sinners (2025) is a bold, genre-blending film that fuses supernatural horror with rich musical drama, all set in the haunting backdrop of 1930s Mississippi. Directed by Ryan Coogler, the movie follows twin brothers—played by Michael B. Jordan—who return to their hometown to open a juke joint and escape their violent pasts. What unfolds is a slow-burning, atmospheric story layered with blues, gospel, and soul music that doesn't just underscore the scenes—it drives the emotion and tension. The visuals are lush and haunting, and the story avoids cheap scares in favor of deeper psychological and cultural unease.What makes Sinners stand out is its emotional depth and originality. Instead of relying on franchise familiarity or overused horror tropes, it dives into themes of redemption, racial trauma, faith, and family legacy with sincerity and craft. Jordan delivers a nuanced dual performance, and the supporting cast brings authenticity to the story's gritty, soulful tone.

Send us a textWelcome back to DMR!Sinners (2025) is a bold, genre-blending film that fuses supernatural horror with rich musical drama, all set in the haunting backdrop of 1930s Mississippi. Directed by Ryan Coogler, the movie follows twin brothers—played by Michael B. Jordan—who return to their hometown to open a juke joint and escape their violent pasts. What unfolds is a slow-burning, atmospheric story layered with blues, gospel, and soul music that doesn't just underscore the scenes—it drives the emotion and tension. The visuals are lush and haunting, and the story avoids cheap scares in favor of deeper psychological and cultural unease.What makes Sinners stand out is its emotional depth and originality. Instead of relying on franchise familiarity or overused horror tropes, it dives into themes of redemption, racial trauma, faith, and family legacy with sincerity and craft. Jordan delivers a nuanced dual performance, and the supporting cast brings authenticity to the story's gritty, soulful tone. Critically acclaimed and a box office hit, Sinners has earned major awards and resonated with audiences for being more than just a horror film—it's a powerful, character-driven experience that lingers long after the credits roll.

Using FM on the 2m band, the exchange is signal report, serial number and locator. Also, on Tuesday the 5th, the RSGB 144MHz UK Activity Contest runs from 1900 to 2130UTC. Using all modes on the 2m band, the exchange is signal report, serial number and locator. On Wednesday the 6th, the RSGB 144MHz FT8 Activity four-hour Contest runs from 1700 to 2100UTC. Using FT8 on the 2m band, the exchange is a report and a four-character locator. Also, on Wednesday the 6th, the RSGB 144MHz FT8 Activity two-hour Contest runs from 1900 to 2100UTC. Using FT8 on the 2m band, the exchange is a report and four-character locator. Stations entering the four-hour contest may also enter the two-hour contest. The RSGB Machine Generated Modes Contest starts at 1400UTC on Saturday, the 9th and ends at 1400UTC on Sunday, the 10th of August. Using machine-generated modes on the 6 and 2m bands, the exchange is your report and four-character locator. The Worked All Europe DX CW Contest starts at 0000UTC on Saturday, the 9th and ends at 2359UTC on Sunday, the 10th of August. Using CW on the 80 to 10m bands, where contests are permitted, the exchange is signal report and serial number. Now the radio propagation report, compiled by G0KYA, G3YLA and G4BAO on Thursday the 31st of July 2025 Last week was very much a repeat performance of the week before. We had relatively calm geomagnetic conditions and few solar flares to contend with. The only flares were minor C-class events. The Kp index never got above 3, and the solar flux index was in the 140s to 150s. The F2-layer maximum usable frequency over a 3,000km path rose to 21MHz but didn't get much higher, which is normal for the summer period. A team from Norfolk Amateur Radio Club was active as GM0FRT/P from the Shetland Islands for the IOTA contest. They were workable from JO02NN on 14 and 21MHz for much of the contest period. The distance to Shetland from central UK is about 887km, or 551 miles. Given the distance involved, the 21MHz openings were probably Sporadic-E, but they were loud for hours on end. Other DX worked last week included T30TTT from Western Kiribati on the 10m band using FT8 over the North Pole. 9M8A from East Malaysia was also on the 10m band using FT8. XW4KV from Laos was on the 12m band operating FT8. 3B9SP on Rodriguez Island put in an appearance on the 17 and 12m bands using FT8. The station was also worked using CW on the 40, 30, 20 and 15m bands. That's not a bad haul for summer DX and if the Kp index can stay low, we could get similar next week. Speaking of which, NOAA predicts that the solar flux index will be in the range of 150 to 160 next week. Unsettled geomagnetic conditions are forecast for the period of the 7th to the 14th of August, with a maximum predicted Kp index of 5. And finally, there is talk of a possible large sunspot group on the far side of the Sun. The region in question belongs to a cluster of spots, including AR 4136, 4139 and 4143, last seen earlier this month. Solar rotation will carry what remains of these regions back into view next week. So, keep an eye on solarham.com  for up-to-date details. And now the VHF and up propagation news from G3YLA and G4BAO The slightly unsettled theme to the weather will remain into next week, although there are signs that high pressure will try to return in the middle of the week for a time. Models disagree on details, with some bringing another thundery low into the south later. This means that there will be some Tropo at times and, in high summer, this tends to be generally strongest around the coasts. To benefit from these conditions inland it's better to wait for night cooling. As usual with thundery weather, it's a good chance to listen for rain scatter on the GHz bands. Another mode that still deserves attention is meteor scatter. Look out for the early stirrings of the August Perseids, which peak around the 12th and 13th of the month.  Surprisingly, Aurora is staying in the limelight. Periodic alerts are suggesting it's worth turning your VHF beams north if you notice any signs of fluttery HF signals or discover the Kp index has risen to 5 or above. If auroral activity appears on the 10 or 6m bands, then check the higher bands as the event develops. Sporadic-E is now in its occasional phase as we move into August. It is less common than in June, but still worth considering. Check the usual cluster maps and Propquest to see how the day is unfolding. Moon declination is negative, falling to a minimum on Tuesday, the 5th. So, Moon windows and peak elevation will also decline. Path losses reached maximum at apogee on the 1st of August, so are starting to fall again. 144MHz sky noise starts the coming week moderately, but will rise to high levels by Monday. It will reach over 300 Kelvin by Tuesday evening before falling back. And that's all from the propagation team this week.

Your hosts tonight are Jeremy Pozderac, Aaron Krieger, Nick Lynch, and me Shawn Herrin, welcome to the show! GOALS   August 9th and 10th in Knoxville, Tennessee. Knoxville Convention Center Free to GOA members https://events.goa.org/goals/   Free exclusive shirt if you attended both GunCon and GOALS AND Send pics with the cast from each event to automated@welikeshooting.com - Dear WLS Sean M - I've got a PTR91 setup as somewhat of a DMR with a Magpul PRS stock and a Swampfox Arrowhead 1-10. I'm thinking of dumping the 2nd focal plane lpvo, what suggestions would you have for a different optic for that concept? Otherwise, what would you guys do for a "modern battle rifle" setup? Optics, furniture, etc? Cheers, Sean M No notes And 171 for life Nick D - I have a Mitchell shorty DOC with the mloc guard. I want to get a Midwest suppressor hand guard and a dead air can for it so I can have more rail space. Would this be a good set up? Any other suggestions? I have a heat wrap on the rail now and it takes up almost the entire rail. Help Alex S - I recently picked up an older Rem700 in 7mm Rem Mag. Been shooting my .308 out to distance (~550yds) but wanted to go further so i picked this up on a deal. I posted on DangFree about my new scope(Strike Eagle 5-25 FFP) and got a lot of great help there. My question for you today is about the barrel. It is the standard thinner profile barrel and heats up quick after my first few rounds. Is it worth swapping the barrel out to a bull? Should i leave this rifle as-is and invest in a new platform? Any other suggestions? Thanks for your abuse in advance! Wls4life Ragequit from Twitch - Hola everybody, looking into some defensive pistol/ar training and I'm having a hard time trying to figure out what is worth the time and money. I have seen everything from basic pistol courses where it appears they are indoors at a range to courses that are defensive/competition style classes. And when looking into defensive ar courses it runs the gamut from just getting into ar's to having “professional” training for wet work. What do I look for when trying to decipher the description of classes? I am located near the PA/MD/VA area so for the most part that is not a bad drive for most training if there is a recommendation for classes. What should I look for and what “descriptions “ should I steer away from. I appreciate any help, one of the watchers from twitch Ryan W - I have a registered SBR and recently moved to a new city. (It's an actual SBR with a stock, not a braced pistol, I am not one of those guys.) I read on the ATF website that a change of address form could be submitted after a move, as long as I am not crossing state lines. However, I have also read that the ATF is no longer requiring a change of address form at all, as long as the new address is in the same state. Do you know if this is true? Also, how long do you have after a move to notify the ATF? Thank you for the help...hopefully Mike H - Throwing an update since I already decided on my optic I was asking about earlier, found a great deal on a Sig Sierra3BDX 4.5-14x44 scope and picked up a rangefinder to go with, the scope was only $300 Nick F - odd question but have any of the cast looked into the "no new cemetery " conspiracy? I've found that some cemeteries practice the 50/100 year rule. apparently you don't own your plot forever..... Daniel A - What would you choose to defend yourself FN HP 9mm older model or a DB9 gen4? And is the older FN HP better than the new ones?   The winner of this week's swag pack is Mike H! To win your own, go to welikeshooting.

GB2RS News Sunday the 27th of July The news headlines: RSGB confirms more speakers for its Convention in October Get involved with the RSGB LoRa high-altitude balloon challenge The RSGB releases a high-contrast logbook to improve accessibility  The RSGB has shared details of more presentations that you can enjoy at its Convention in October. If you'd like to broaden your technical knowledge, you'll enjoy presentations by Bob Burns, G3OUU, on ‘Getting the most from an oscilloscope' and ‘Ladder crystal filter design'. As part of the Society's focus on supporting modern amateur radio operating practices, Paul Galwas, M0WLG, will be discussing ‘Can we ‘DX' over an IoT mesh?'. The comprehensive programme of speakers also includes Dr Marcus Walden, G0IJZ, who will explain the numerical modelling of the historical Grimeton VLF antenna, and Paul Beaumont, G7VAK, who will take ‘A brief look at Number Stations: 1950 to the present'. With even more captivating and thought-provoking speakers already confirmed, you'll need to purchase a ticket to guarantee attendance. Buy your tickets before Monday, the 11th of August, to ensure you receive early-bird ticket pricing. Tickets are available to purchase via rsgb.org/convention National Coding Week takes place in the third week of September, and the RSGB is once again dedicating a whole month to amateur radio and coding activities. As part of the Society's strategy to encourage practical skills development, it is inviting you to take part in its LoRa high-altitude balloon challenge. The project has been developed by the RSGB Outreach team and takes place on Saturday, the 20th of September. The balloon will be equipped with a LoRa digipeater, and your challenge is to follow the instructions provided and build a LoRa tracker. If your tracker build is successful, it will beam up packets to the airborne relay, which will transmit them to a local i-gate. Your goal is to get your signal the furthest distance from the launch. Anyone can enter, but to win one of the prizes, you need to be an RSGB member. Get involved as a single operator or as a team in your RSGB-affiliated club. The RSGB is delighted that Moonraker is sponsoring this event and will award a £200 Moonraker voucher to the winner of each category. Find out how to get involved with this exciting LoRa event by going to rsgb.org/lora-balloon The RSGB is proud to announce the release of a new high-contrast logbook designed to support amateur radio operators with visual impairments or learning difficulties. Responding to feedback from members and accessibility advocates, the RSGB developed the logbook with wider spacing and a high-contrast black-and-yellow design to improve ease of use. This release reflects the RSGB's wider commitment to improving accessibility across all areas of the Society and amateur radio as a whole. The organisation continues to explore ways to make the hobby more inclusive and user-friendly for all participants. This version will be available through Amazon and is expected to be a useful addition for both seasoned operators and newcomers looking for a more accessible logging option. As part of its long-term vision, the RSGB is looking to recruit a dedicated team to assess and enhance accessibility throughout the Society and help shape a more inclusive future for amateur radio. If you're interested in contributing to this important initiative, please email RSGB Board Director Nathan Nuttall, 2M0OCC, via 2m0occ@rsgb.org.uk Since the launch of its DMR project in May, the RSGB Outreach team is delighted that four schools and one homeschool have signed up. The project aims to help young people get on the air and build their confidence in making QSOs. Each of the successful applicants will be loaned a TYT DMR handheld radio and a Pi-Star-based hotspot. The RSGB Youth Chair and Youth Champion for Schools, Chris Aitken, MM0WIC, is supporting two new school amateur radio clubs that have chosen this as an entry-level activity for their club members. DMR is particularly useful in a school club scenario where antenna placement is a challenge and can be easily deployed, giving young people access to the world. During the summer holidays, the DMR handsets will be used at the West Sussex International Jamboree with Regional Representative 10, Simon Harris, G4WQG, attending the event and Wick High School Radio Club member Jacob, MM7IFL, supporting remotely via DMR. Listen out for further updates after the summer when the RSGB plans to get a youth net operational on Brandmeister Talk Group 23554. The net aims to encourage young operators to get on the air and become comfortable with QSO structure and general rag-chewing. If you want to start a school club or are interested in being part of the DMR project, email Chris via youthchampion.school@rsgb.org.uk The prospect of a USA constellation of 240 commercial satellites that would use 430 to 440MHz for wideband control and telemetry has prompted an unprecedented response from the amateur radio community to a Federal Communications Commission, or FCC, consultation. FCC Proceeding 25-201 would see AST SpaceMobile utilise much of 430 to 440MHz for downlinks, as well as a series of ground stations around the world. The RSGB and several other IARU member societies, along with the ARRL and over 2,000 individuals, have submitted comments to this consultation. The IARU itself has also issued a statement on the matter. Links for this, including the RSGB response, can be found on the RSGB website. Go to rsgb.org/spectrumforum and then choose the ‘Papers and consultations' option in the right-hand menu. Following the main submission deadline of the 21st of July, the FCC process has further phases to go through. Amateur radio operators are invited to take part in a special operating event in August, celebrating the rich history of the UK's wartime and Cold War airfield bunkers.

Now the radio propagation report, compiled by G0KYA, G3YLA and G4BAO on Thursday the 24th of July It was a bit of a mixed bag last week. The first half saw settled geomagnetic conditions, but from the 22nd of July, we had a disturbance thanks to output from a solar coronal hole. This saw the Kp index rise to 4.67 and ultimately 5. The stream from the Sun reached around 730 kilometres per second, while the Bz component of the interplanetary magnetic field, or IMF, was mostly neutral with a few brief periods when it pointed slightly south. So, its effects were perhaps not as bad as they could have been. The coronal hole has now rotated out of view, so we may have some better days. Meanwhile, the solar flux index has been in the range of 140 to 150, which is pretty good. There were no M-class or higher solar flares over the past week, which is unusual. So overall, HF propagation was humming, at least until the Kp index hit 5. Maximum useable frequencies, or MUFs, over a 3,000km path during daylight continue to be around 21MHz, but often dip to 18MHz at times. Nighttime conditions can be variable. If the 14MHz band isn't open for you, try 10MHz. Earlier in the week, some daytime tests with WSPR on the 20m band saw stations logged from Australia and the far west of Canada. DP0POL, the Polarstern research vessel doing work in the Artic, was also logged. Next week, NOAA predicts that the solar flux index may decline slightly to be in the range of 130 to 135. Geomagnetic conditions are predicted to be settled until the 1st of August, when the Kp index could rise to 4. This period of unsettled conditions, with reduced MUFs, could last until the 4th of August. And now the VHF and up propagation news from G3YLA and G4BAO We will see the return of a weak ridge of high pressure today. This will last until the middle of the coming week. The second half of the week will be a little more unsettled with some occasional spells of rain. This suggests that some Tropo is possible, before a gradual swap over to rain scatter. However, high pressure near the Azores may still influence the western side of Britain. This week will see the peak of two meteor showers, the Alpha Capricornids and Delta Aquariids. These are worth checking out, if only to get your practice time in before one of the major showers of the year – the Perseids on the 12th and 13th of August. Barely a day passes without some auroral alert, and this can be an exciting mode. Several good indicators are available, such as when the Kp index is above 5, or watery-sounding signals on the 40 and 20m bands. If you hear these, try looking north on the 6, 4 or 2m bands. Sporadic-E continues to be mentioned on the clusters somewhere in Europe on most days. But remember that it's a very localised mode and is rarely available for everyone at the same time. The best way to track it down is to use the clusters and a good list of beacons, to see who your ‘locals' are working on FT8. It's a very hit-and-miss mode. Meteor activity is a good indicator, whereas a high Kp index is a bad one. Whether it happens is often a balance between many opposing components. So, even a potentially good day may not be good where you are. The good news is that the last openings of the summer can occur into the first week of September. Moon declination is still positive but going negative again on Tuesday, the 29th. Moon windows and peak elevation will reduce. Path losses are rising now as we are past perigee. 144MHz sky noise starts the coming week low but will rise to moderate by the weekend. And that's all from the propagation team this week.

Racing by feel and winning with heart.Margot Appleton has emerged as one of the premier collegiate distance runners in the U.S., blending tactical brilliance, relentless drive, and a flair for dramatic finishes.In 2019, as a high school junior, Appleton stunned the field at Boston's Mayor's Cup 5K, finishing second overall in 17:14—outpacing the reigning Foot Locker national champion. This performance marked a significant breakthrough in her running career.Most recently, at the 2025 Penn Relays, Appleton delivered a sensational anchor leg in the Distance Medley Relay (DMR), clocking a 4:21.46 split. Overcoming a significant deficit, she surged past top competitors to secure Virginia's first women's DMR win at the event since 1982. Her 1500m time of 4:05.68 at the 2025 Raleigh Relays ranks as the fourth-fastest in collegiate history.Appleton holds Virginia school records in the indoor mile (4:25.03), indoor 3000m (8:46.23), and outdoor 5000m (15:18.21). Appleton has earned First Team All-American honors in both the 1500m and 5000m events, including a 4th-place finish in the 5000m at the 2024 NCAA Outdoor Championships.In today's conversation, Margot takes me through her successful, consistent career at UVU, being a leader on the team, what it would mean to her to win an NCAA title, what her training looks like, training without a GPS watch, and so much more.Tap into the Margot Appleton Special.  If you enjoy the podcast, please consider following us on Spotify and Apple Podcasts and giving us a five-star review! I would also appreciate it if you share it with your friend who you think will benefit from it. Comment the word "PODCAST" below and I'll DM you a link to listen. If this episode blesses you, please share it with a friend!S H O W  N O T E S-The Run Down By The Running Effect (our new newsletter!): https://tinyurl.com/mr36s9rs-BUY MERCH BEFORE IT'S GONE: https://shop.therunningeffect.run-Our Website: https://therunningeffect.run -THE PODCAST ON YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClLcLIDAqmJBTHeyWJx_wFQ-My Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/therunningeffect/?hl=en⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠-Take our podcast survey: https://tinyurl.com/3ua62ffz

Send us a textWelcome back to DMR!As I review the latest kids movie taking the world by storm:"Welcome to the world of Minecraft, where creativity doesn't just help you craft, it's essential to one's survival! Four misfits--Garrett "The Garbage Man" Garrison (Jason Momoa), Henry (Sebastian Eugene Hansen), Natalie (Emma Myers) and Dawn (Danielle Brooks)--find themselves struggling with ordinary problems when they are suddenly pulled through a mysterious portal into the Overworld: a bizarre, cubic wonderland that thrives on imagination. To get back home, they'll have to master this world (and protect it from evil things like Piglins and Zombies, too) while embarking on a magical quest with an unexpected, expert crafter, Steve (Jack Black). Together, their adventure will challenge all five to be bold and to reconnect with the qualities that make each of them uniquely creative... the very skills they need to thrive back in the real world."The film as already made over $552m globaly in less than two weeks and has become the most successful video game based movie in history!This film had elements of The Labyrinth, The Matrix & Tron; however it definitely stands on its own two feet despite some similarities.This is what happens when you make a kids movie that stays true to its story and avoids adding in politics or changing a storyline.Enjoy - DMRSupport the show

They bond from a distance while trying to stay vigilant in defending against an unseen enemy. When the cataclysmic threat to humanity is revealed to them, they must work together in a test of both their physical and mental strength to keep the secret in the gorge before it's too late.I also touch on Apple TV's budget for film and series that has been in the media of late.Enjoy - DMR Support the show

Join Justin as he chats with musician, artist, and author Jo Gamel and writer and editor of DMR Books D.M. Ritzlin about the release of Swords of Steel IV, the depths of the Pongus Maw, songwriting, mythology, Vran the Chaos-Warped, and more!Jo Gamel bio:“Jo Gamel is a multidisciplinary artist living in Philadelphia. Her process is heavily influenced by the practice of Art-as-Therapy, which she studied at the Master's level at Antioch University Seattle. She has lived as an ESL instructor in Sweden and Turkey, and traveled to over 28 countries, including award-funded trips to Finland and Russia, all of which has informed her anthropological interests in goddesses, religious architecture, feminism and theology. Her family's mixed spiritualties include Judaism, Polish Catholicism, English and Irish Episcopalianism, Celtic Wiccan, and Japanese Jodo Shinshu Buddhism. Her work has been shown in galleries in Philadelphia, New York City, Seattle and New Jersey. Jo Gamel is the founder of Tutor of the Arts LLC, as well as an art education instructor, a private tutor, a curator, and an art gallery assistant. Now, she is writing a textbook on the chemistry and physics of oil paint with co-author Dr. Michael Mackay in order to expand the understanding of the creation of archival paintings. She also is debuting a Hard Rock album with her band, Jüpiter, along side her latest body of work, both of which explore the Power of Venus as employed by female Rock musicians.”D.M. Ritzlin bio:“D.M. Ritzlin founded DMR Books in 2015 with the aim of revitalizing sword-and-sorcery literature. DMR's publications include reprints of classic material by authors such as Robert E. Howard, Michael Moorcock, and Clark Ashton Smith, as well as brand-new collections and anthologies by some of the finest fantasy writers active today. Ritzlin's first collection of his own stories, Necromancy in Nilztiria, was released in October 2020. This was followed by a novel, Vran the Chaos-Warped (2023), and a second collection, Dark Dreams of Nilztiria (2024). His tales mix action, horror, wonder, and gallows humor in varying degrees. Lately the field of role-playing games has recaptured Ritzlin's attention. His first professionally published adventure module, The Lair of the Brain Eaters, was released through one of the best-known publishers of old school RPG material, Lamentations of the Flame Princess.Prior to his involvement in publishing, Ritzlin worked in the antique map trade, among other fields. He lives in Chicago, the city of his birth.”Intro and outro theme created by Wyrm.
