      Who's getting in some fishing?

      I highly recommend this book on trout fishing in MD. This is an older version, I think there have been a couple newer updated releases but in any case the authors know their stuff.

      Sunday hunting

      Most states allow hunting on Sundays including the one I grew up in and I don't recall there being any problems with it.

      Finally got up and running on 10, 20, and 40 meters this week. I bought an ICOM 7300 new. I was looking at them on the used market, then found a deal of $250 off this month that put the price near what a used one is going for so I went with the new one. I had to get grounding set up and...
