i dont know man, used to get on 40m almost every evening and lately ive just been sitting down at the radio and then just... not keying up. not sure if its burnout or what. propagation has been weird too which doesnt help. still love the hobby just feels like something is off. maybe i need a new project or something to get the motivation back

    yeah i go through this every couple years honestly. last time i just started building a kit i'd had sitting in the box forever and that got me back into it. sometimes you just need a reason to actually use the thing again instead of just having it on in the background

    same tbh. been meaning to get on for a SOTA activation for like two months now and just havent. life gets busy. i think solar conditions being kinda meh lately doesnt help either, fewer contacts means less fun means less motivation, its a whole cycle
