On the Feeds page, you’ll find around 50 different sources, all rolled together. I’m using a feed aggregator to pull RSS (Really Simple Syndication) feeds from many amateur radio-related websites. The aggregator pulls in the most recent content and then orders it chronologically. When I find a new source, I add it to the aggregator.
What you get is a great list of potentially interesting topics, along with items sprinkled in that you probably aren’t interested in. It’s the same for me. I use this system to help me find the most interesting content from other sources. It saves me a lot of time.
I’m very aware that what I find interesting may, in fact, not be interesting to you. That’s why I’m making my “mega feed” available to you, so you can do your own digging. There are two resources available: the Feeds page and an RSS feed for my whole list. The big RSS feed will be of interest to folks who already use a feed reader to automatically pull in content.

- Mega feed RSS: https://etherham.com/feedlist
Now if you click the mega feed link, you’ll see a bunch of strange text on your browser screen (unless your browser has a feed reader built in or added). That’s normal. If you’ve never seen that before, well, you’ve probably never used RSS feeds before. And that’s okay. Not every tool works for every person.
Being of the mindset single points of failure are bad, I have the list duplicated on my Proxmox server, running through a program called Miniflux. The display is a bit different but I still get all the content. This is a “just in case” step because I don’t want to have to rebuild the feed list if something breaks on the EtherHam site!
