Want to go on a radio foxhunt?
Free, fun, instructive 😃
We have distributed five radio transmitters around the site that you can locate using directional antennas and radio receivers.
We will show you how everything works, and then you're on your own.
We have five antennas and receivers available. Just come to the ZTL village, and if a set of equipment is not in use, you're good to go.
Free of charge, but we would appreciate a small donation of £1/€1.

Wolken von gestern Abend, kurz nach Sonnenuntergang. Sind das diese nachtleuchtende Wolken?

Did I just monitor the echoes of a whole swarm of satellites?
Watching the echoes from the Graves radar to monitor for Perseid meteorites, I can occasionally see satellites as well. This happens when the reflections are strong enough. Sats are always easily discernible due to their much higher speed compared to airplanes.
Now I saw this this morning - an entire set of sat-like reflections, like a group of satellites close by and following the same trajectory.
