Actually, it is my amateur radio station in Naypyitaw, Myanmar.
The authorities insist that I live at a hotel - renting a house or condo is not allowed for foreigners. This is a field at the hotel where I stay (my room is the one on the ground floor at the corner).
There's the vertical antenna in the foreground and behind it are 3 vertical hanging wires (weighted with water bottles) that are a Yagi beam antenna for transmitting on 21 MHz.
I have to construct everything myself, due to lack of materials and the impossibility to import professional equipment.
Anyway, with this very modest set-up, I have worldwide contacts with radio hams, (since I set up this station in March, I've managed to chat with hams in 110 different countries).
Of course, it would be a lot easier to just send them a text message... :smileylaughing:
The sign says this is the Blowing house....Quote:

From latest road trip - Mayon Volcano and Cagsawa Church Ruins in the town of Daraga, province of Albay, PI. The volcano erupted in 1814 and buried the town of Cagsawa in lava. Now only the belfry of the church remains.

pls help again in reloading pics. My net is &$%@. Thanks much! :)
The sign says Welcome to Blowinghouse. I'm guessing that's a name of a town??Quote:

btw, Mayon Volcano erupted early this year (Jan to Feb) - it's an active volcano. My group was lucky to see its peak, as sometimes it's hidden by clouds.
It's the name of an urban area just outside Redruth in Cornwall. Here is the Google map street view of it.Quote:

And it seems I'm right, it is a former toll house (see halfway down the page - Blowing House)
http://www.turnpikes.org.uk/Tollhous...20Cornwall.htm
And what appears to be a sign on the house stating that it's an old Toll House.

Jeepers. Love those volcano pics Skkin.
Don't think I've ever seen one active in real life.
^those volcano pics are from me, Lulu. :) PI is in the Ring of Fire - volcanoes & earthquakes are a dime a dozen. ;)
Katie's pics I reposted for her.Quote:

Little help please.
Might go on a bit of a bike ride tomorrow. Not really feeling like going too far.
Options are pretty much:
Original Black Princess on the outskirts of Bkk. Dinner n stay in her place.
Ayuthaya. Hotel n nurse from last year.
Kanchanaburi. Hotel n travel agent from last year.
Mate is in Pattaya, head down for some madness.
Exercise in the morning, shopping, then sofa for the rest of the day.
To be honest I'm feeling a bit tired, and can't decide between any of them.
^^no probs, lulu. If ever you're in or near Manila, visit Tagaytay city - you'll see Taal Volcano and lake from there. I may even tour you and Ms. Bombata around. Heh... :)
as to your current dilemma, no comment. :)
Sounds top-notch K-Pop. :)
Well, you learn something new everyday, as they say: I was taking some photos of dragonflies and damselflies in a small pond, not far from our home, when I came across this strange looking bug.
https://teakdoor.com/attachment.php?a...id=14133&stc=1
It's commonly known as an owlfly (Ascalaphidae). It is like a dragonfly but has long antenna and big eyes. I have never seen one before and didn't know they existed until I I tried to identify it. I think this is Ascalaphus sinister, or one very similar: https://species.wikimedia.org/wiki/Ascalaphus_sinister
Miz Bombata it is then :)Quote:

^nice pic, chitty.
Still from latest road trip to the south-eastern part of the country. Mayon Volcano pics - it's an active volcano. It erupted early this year - Jan to Feb/March. The town of Cagsawa is no more - was buried in lava in 1814. I don't know if I'll be able to make a thread (time & net issues), so will post pics here in the meantime.

for those interested in history...
Attachment 14151
only the bell tower of the old church remains
Attachment 14152
it rained afterwards and if you're unlucky, the volcano's peak will be covered with clouds. So you have to repent for your sins (shout out to TC!) ;)
Attachment 14153
again, anyone pls help in reloading the pics - many thanks! :)
^salamat for reloading the pics, PAG. :)
Since the demise of Photobucket, I'm using Imgur which I find to be simple and efficient.
