[amsat-bb] Senior moment

[Kevin Muenzler, WB5RUE]

I feel your pain!  I don't know how many times I've plugged the audio output
of my rig into the headphone jack of the sound card.  At least the software
that I currently use to record has a level and spectral output that's live
so I can immediately know if I'm getting audio or not.  At my age I still
have it all together but sometimes I forget where I put it.

I was going to take over the world but then I saw something shiny!

Got all set up for AO-50's 1500 Z pass over Arizona this morning.  Made
several contacts with 6, 7, 8, and 9 area call signs.  Went in the house,
pulled my recorder out of my pocket (I use an ear mike under my headphone)
and found that I forgot to turn it on.  They were all good contacts but,
unfortunately,  none will make into LoTW.  I'll have to write myself a note
and stick it on the radio to remind me to turn it on.  Hopefully we'll meet
again, my personal life gets in the way of my radio life so I am not always
available for the passes and right now I only have FM so I'm limited there
also.
