It's so cool to be able to make these contacts using zero infrastructure. People just don't get it. I loved seeing the map light up for everyone who heard my FT8 CQ. That being said, my ham motivation was to use it for winlink when offshore. Starlink fixed that need.

I just packed all my ham stuff away. Is this digital mode?

SMART is the disks internal tests to determine it's own health. It's also what is likely making its read only. You can get software to read this smart data, it gives you a clue about the drive health. With it being external, try changing the USB cable.

He's done a Reith lecture series, check it out.
