In an effort to play more ham radio without the cost of an HF radio I decided to dabble with DMR a bit. I have an AnyTone AT-D878UVII Plus that I got from Bridgecom Systems that is capable but I’ve only just used it for UHF and VHF. We have a local DMR repeater that I can hit just fine from home, however it times out after 10 mins, so you can’t really just sit all day and monitor a…

We have grown the following: Japanese Black Pine, Buddha Tree, Giant Sequoia, Coton Easter, Trident Maple, Chinese Elm, Colorado Blue Spruce and Black Spruce.

We attempted our first seed planting fully accepting we don’t have a clue what we are doing and just gonna see if anything even sprouts. Made up some labels for them. It’s rather pleasant experience, it causes a perspective shift for me. Slows me down. We have a lot to learn and we know already we are doing some things wrong, I’ve decided to go with the wrong ways so that I can learn from it. We are in no…
