No Show this week. Probably no show next week.

I am taking the Pirates Week off line for retooling for a while. I need to recharge my personal batteries and reclaim my Sunday mornings for a few weeks. With the low solar activity and summer static the propagation has been poor and I haven’t been listening much. The show will return, perhaps in a slightly new form in a few weeks. Stay subscribed, we’ll be back in a little while.

* The Podcast is scheduled to return on Labor Day weekend or shortly thereafter *

My other websites RF Programs, Shortwave Pirate and Sans Contemplation will continue as normal.
