2025-07-26 12:20:48ian@mastodon.radio32Success!Thought I would give the Hellschreiber mode a try for #HamChallenge week 31, "Try a mode you have never tried before". This looks quite fun, I love the visual effect of it. Thanks DL1RI for the QSO!HC31S
2025-07-28 18:12:09g7kse@mastodon.radio30Success!I've got a lot of catching up to do with but managed a QSO or 2 with FT8 for HC31SA couple of these were POTA stations which was kind of nice. I'd prefer to do some proper wonky mode like Hellschreiber but I'll need a bit of a run to that. I should have a bit more time now though, so no excuses

2025-08-03 15:32:46bgarfoot@kind.social13Success!HC31S. Well, what a good week to get back into the Ham Challenge. I tried three new modes, although each without success of an actual QSO:SSTV: I can receive just fine, but it didn't seem like I was actually transmitting. More diagnosis is needed between my rig and QSSTV JT65: I tried calling CQ for a bit, but no answers. Thus, I couldn't tell if something was wrong, or if no one was using the modeHellschreiber: definitely want to play around with this one more 😈
