Quiet Band Radio, a Lithuanian notebook for the airwaves

- Its band table separates daylight and darkness using percentages derived from half-hourly garden logs.
Field notes
The homepage turns a fixed local setup into a comparative record: eight bands are summarized by daylight and darkness, while individual entries preserve UTC time, frequency, mode, and seasonal context. The visible archive includes experiments with a common-mode choke and dummy load, an antenna that must bend inside a too-short garden, and four winters of low-band observations. An RSS feed and a dedicated explanation of the logging method make the material usable as an ongoing notebook rather than a single essay.
