See Far Notebook

Personal site for Chris Farnham, W1YTQ. Where I share my adventures in radio, the outdoors and technology.

Site visitors may want to go to this page, Journal Entry Rollup, that summarizes site entries by topics. As of Spring of 2025 I’ve written over forty posts where I share and explore my radio adventures.

My Reverse Beacon Network activity

The Reverse Beacon Network is a worldwide network of stations listening to the airwaves and reporting what stations they hear, when and how well. When I’m operating my radio in CW mode (Morse Code) RBN stations will decode my call sign (W1YTQ) and report it back to the network. If I have internet access, I can use the RBN check where my signal is being received and its strength (in decibels).

The RBN database can be queried to show my radio activity over time (see below).
