My 2016 Amateur Radio resolutions
It seems to be a recurring item in amateur radio to post your 'new years resolutions'. I answered in the reddit thread What's your 2016 Amateur Radio resolutions? [sic] with my plans:
- Pass the exam for the full license on 2 March
- Participate in "Mills on the air" in May
- Making amateur satellite contacts when the weather permits
- Participate in a few digimode contests 'seriously' (preparing, using an outside antenna, optimizing score). Sofar I usuallly go 'oh there is a contest I'll throw in my call and see if I can score some points'
- Bring some radio stuff on summer holiday (a full license makes this possible in a lot more countries around here)
