    Shortwave Radio and QSL Cards

    I very much agree. There’s something special about pulling in a signal(and sending back for hams) on nothing but a radio and a piece of wire.

    Shortwave Radio and QSL Cards

    For those who would like to dip their toes without dropping money let me recommend web SDR. Web SDR You can filter by region, band, etc. There are several different interfaces, and based on what antenna or antennas the station is using they will receive different bands.

    Shortwave Radio and QSL Cards

    If I recall correctly the BBC started using shortwave at the beginning of the war in Ukraine again. Slightly unrelated but I remember listening to a bunch of recordings of Russian jamming on 20 and 40m at the beginning.

    The Most Disappointing Tobacco

    Funny you said that because I just did an Estervals restock and can’t wait to get more St Bernard’s.

    Favorite Dan Tobacco blends

    I love both Ascanian’s and St Bernard’s. Thanks to the forum for the Estervals sale I have quite a bit headed my way, however I goofed and only got 1 250g St Bernard’s.

    The Most Disappointing Tobacco

    I’ve only smoked a bit over 100 grams of Marlin Flake but I’m right there with you. The weird thing about that blend for me is that 2-3 of the bowls were absolutely sublime. Every other smoke was among the most “meh” I’ve had. Maybe it’s time to bust out a tin with some age and play around with...

    Il Cerchio Pipes

    That pipe is stunning! I’ve heard nothing but good reports on his pipes thus far. How does she smoke?

    Huge Estervals Sale

    This has been my experience as well. I play with the quantity and have it sit just below the next shipping tier. My shipping was $59 on a $255 order. Not bad for a little over 4.5# of blends not sold stateside. Thanks everyone for the heads up!

    Best City for a Pipe Smoker

    I was also amazed with the pipe shops in Munich. The selection of pipes, tobaccos, cigars and spirits at Pfeifen Huber was unreal. It’s hard to beat picking up tobaccos and a pipe at a shop like that and finding a good spot at English Gardens to sit down and smoke. Another bonus is the “Huber...

    Kiribi Kabuto - How is Yours Holding Up?

    I saw this thread pop back up and hurried in here to report the same thing. My cap was not seating properly and upon inspection it was the pivot screw. Mine was popping out at an angle and was mm’s from coming off entirely. I had to angle it back up and in, which proved to take more pressure and...

    Dear Gawith & Hoggarth

    Side note but that’s a beautiful pipe. A Mike Bay?

    Cajun Dark, Periqued Dark Fired

    I have a tin in the cellar that I purchased years ago and haven’t cracked. My tobacconist told me that McClelland experimented with this leaf and introduced the line of tobaccos when periques future was in doubt. I’m not sure if that’s entirely true, and I may not be recalling it correctly.

    NHL Playoffs

    The Devils surely have the talent to compete but the Canes are smoking them. I wonder how the change of venue will affect the series.

    NHL Playoffs

    Blue jackets here. Obviously the big prize is Bedard but the top 4 is absolutely stacked. This was a great year for us to be the walking wounded and grab a top 4 pick. The tragic loss of Michkov’s father combined with the normal KHL drama will be interesting to follow for the next couple of years.

    Estervals Delivery in Four Days!

    Has everyone been having success with larger orders now that they are using DHL?

    Big news for EU: Cornell & Diehl

    I wonder if they will use their coin style tins for this.

    Kiribi Kabuto - How is Yours Holding Up?

    Mine has been flawless since I got it somewhere in 2017. I’ve used it a ton and it’s never gone back in for service or needed any kind of minor repair or adjustment. Im aware of the issues people have had with the melting hinge or whatever but I guess I’m lucky. If you get a kubuto on sale, it’s...

    How Much Is In Your Cellar ?

    Another one of my wife’s fake accounts trying to get numbers. Nice try honey, all of those coolers aren’t full and I won it all in a raffle.

    Smoking Pipes delisted some Rattray's tins?

    I know they had Brown Clunee 100g tins in stock a couple of days ago when i made an order. At first I thought maybe they planned On removing items not in stock, but that would remove their system of email notifications for out of stock items.

    It’s likely that the password you use for this site was compromised elsewhere. I strongly recommend using as many unique passwords as possible. Apple has a baked in generator and password manager, and there are many third party options.
