     Today, I am on 10m FT8 RX. My gear was turned on at 0844z. Very quiet >>> so far.
    UPDATE 0908z:  Just 2 spots so far 1 G and 1 PA. Probably tropo or
    aircraft.

    For a few hours yesterday evening I went on 472kHz WSPR RX. 10 unique
    stations were spotted using the coax up to my 2m Big-wheel antenna and
    the mains earth.

     Actually, I have never ever used a digital mode like Fusion, D-star or >>> DMR. I used to have an FT-991A that supported Fusion. Currently I have
    an IC-705 that (I believe) supports D-star. As far as I am aware I can
    only access DMR via the internet, but I do not (yet) know how to do
    this. Actually, these digital modes are a knowledge gap that I should
    try to plug in the coming months.


    I wouldn't bother they are not amateur radio ...

    Don't worry Jim these modes will soon be replaced by something newer,
    but in 100 years time people will still be playing vinyl records,
    using Morse and will be fascinated by steam engines and using analogue electronics.

    And they will still be laughing at your dismal failure to pass the Full
    exam.
