Tonight's topic is a tour of your ham shack! Whether you operate from a dedicated radio room, a corner of the office, the kitchen table, or even a mobile setup, we'd love to hear what's on your desk in 2026.

What radios are you currently using the most? Have you added any new equipment, antennas, hotspots, computers, test gear, or accessories over the past year? Maybe you've recently upgraded your station, built something yourself, or finally found the perfect way to organize your operating position.

Beyond the radios, what other gadgets or technology have become essential parts of your shack? Logging software, digital mode interfaces, Raspberry Pis, weather stations, scanners, network equipment, or even that coffee mug that's always within reach—all are fair game tonight.

Whether your setup is a simple handheld and charger or a room full of radios and blinking lights, join us and share what your ham shack looks like in 2026. We look forward to hearing what's on your desk and maybe picking up a few ideas for our own stations!

Tonight’s topic is all about digital voice communications in amateur radio. With so many options available today, many operators have explored modes such as Fusion, DMR, D-Star, P25, NXDN, and others.

What digital modes do you use, and which one has become your primary choice? Do you prefer using local repeaters, personal hotspots, or a combination of both? If you're active on digital voice, what room, reflector, talkgroup, or network do you find yourself connecting to most often?

For those who use multiple modes, what do you like about each one? Is it the ease of use, audio quality, available networks, local activity, or something else that keeps you coming back? If you've tried one mode and moved to another, we'd love to hear what influenced that decision.

Whether you're a seasoned digital operator or just curious about getting started, join us tonight and share your experiences, favorite networks, and tips for others interested in exploring the digital side of amateur radio.
