Hello again friend, fellow gophernaut. |
|
|
|
I've had my head in the proveribal sand recently, and haven't been |
|
around aside from an occasional browse on gopher. In fact, I |
|
almost missed ROOPHLOC 2019. |
|
|
|
Fear not, for here is my entry. Please excuse the terseness -- |
|
that will be explained below. |
|
|
|
I'm posting this from my backyard, mostly because I just read |
|
about this and didn't had time to implement a solution and find a |
|
nice remote place to post. I'm sending this via packet radio to a |
|
local Winlink node through a digipeater. 1200 baud with a simplex |
|
repeater is mighty slow. This post is composed and sent on my |
|
laptop using pat, then to a TH-D72 HT with a semi-portable quarter |
|
wave ground plane antenna made from an SO-239 connector with 14awg |
|
wire soldered to it. Simple, but effective. Then it goes to an |
|
email address checked by a raspberry pi with fetchmail, filters |
|
out the attachment (easier than stripping metadata and allows me |
|
to dictate filenames), then rsyncs to the zaibatsu via cron job. |
|
Something bashed out in a couple hours. Bonus is that I can now |
|
send posts using the equipment I already have in my EDC bag except |
|
for the ground plane (I could use my roll up slim jim with some |
|
paracord to hang it if I wanted to keep it all in a bag). |
|
|
|
It's a beautiful day today, with mild temperatures and a light |
|
breeze. I'm enjoying listening to the birds and owls. I think I |
|
shall go for a bike ride. |
