Has someone asked you to "caption your image" or "add a text description" or "use alt text" and you're not sure what that is, or how?

This page is here to help!

m0yng.uk/Image-descriptions-on

Covers most (all?) Android apps, web interfaces, and TUI/CLIs that I know about.

(I know that not everyone can describe things, and that's ok! This page is here to help people who want to but don't know how, or want some tips.)

Deep links should work, e.g. for @Tusky

Thanks @M0YNG for accepting me here. I'm very excited to see what everybody else has to share.
My current QTH is in Brazil, but I'm originally from LU land. I love to homebrew things and as of lately I'm enjoying SOTA, both as chaser and activator. Lots of fun with that.
And thanks to the maintainers of this Mastodon server!

At sunset in the forest near the house: Testing a new antenna inv. V on 20m: I managed to tune the length/height/tilt so as to obtain resonance at approx. 14.200 Mhz and good SWR without an antenna tuner (which I do not have for the time being).
TRX powered from 3S/2200mAh li-po battery.

Looking for ideas...

I have an running .

I want to take it away from home and connect to other WiFi.
BUT I also want it to connect back home to my .

Until someone fixes this to give WLED powers
github.com/Aircoookie/WLED/iss

I think the best bet is to provide my own WiFi which is doing the VPN bit.
But it also has to connect via WiFI...

Or can the offer network over USB to another ESP?

I have a problem understanding how DX clusters work: There are different software variants (AR Cluster, DXSpider etc.) - are these also networked with each other and exchange spots or do only nodes of a specific cluster software interconnect? For example: Do AR-Cluster nodes exchange information with DXSpider nodes?

@W5AJQ (Jonathan)

So I just realized that I didn't really myself - I am Jonathan (W5AJQ) I live in Salt Lake City. I am a relatively new ham (about a year or so) at 50. I am looking to expand my shack and learn more about "station automation" - I hear people talking about it, but I really would like to see some examples of it. My main rig is a Yaesu FT-991A.
