Usually my wife's my detector. She tells me that I can't get through on some of the games and things she plays. So that's how I know it is not working. But very good. And that sounds like you're having a lot of fun with it. And that's what it's all about. Thanks for joining us, Colin. And catch you on the later version of the net. Victor Echo 4, Gulf, Whiskey, Sierra, George in Braddon. Welcome to the net. And George, tell us all about how you use computers and AM radio. Yeah, good morning, good afternoon. I know we're just sitting in the parking lot here at the local Canadian Tire. We're in shopping for something. But it was too much money. So I came out and I guess the net was on here. But all I use is a laptop with not very much logging on it. That's about it for me. As far as the raspberry pie, I like mine with ice cream. Back to net. Real good. They can be a little crunchy, I suppose. Very good. And thank you so much, George, for joining the net. And yeah, you can keep it simple. You don't have to have a million computers. You can get by quite well with just a laptop in the shack. Which has never worked for me simply because I seem to have way more computers than I need. And I'm doing this on a laptop as well. It's running IAXRBT. But it's my wife's laptop, interestingly enough. And I haul it down to the internet. And I haul it down to the shack every seven weeks on the net control station for this purpose. Otherwise, I'll run an all-star note in the shack here. And connect on one of the many handhelds that also seem to multiply in the shack. All right. Thanks again, George. Down the list, Victor Alpha 7, Romeo Charlie, Brendan, and West Vancouver. Thanks for joining the net today. Go ahead. Oh, good morning. Oh, good morning, afternoon, or the appropriate citations there that may be. Great to be joining the TransCanada net this Sunday. That's a good question. Yeah, interesting. I actually did purchase a laptop for the express purpose of Amrita stuff. Bit of an upgrade. Yeah, obviously, you can probably get a pretty rudimentary laptop for a lot of the programs that it requisite programs for various things. But we use it. I mean, I use it for logging. I use N1MM for all the logging I do. And yeah, that's great because it just reads the VFO. And you don't have to worry about getting a great frequency every time, especially for contests where you're going to a lot of different frequencies. And yeah, we've had a couple of those. Obviously, it's the season for that kind of stuff. And yeah, no Raspberry Pis here. And hoping to keep it that way. I do have hand clock running. Oh, excuse me. I do have hand clock running on another computer there on WSL. And since it refuses to run in native Windows environment. This is a kilo 7. But if I ever develop things, I do it in Windows IDE, how to avoid. It makes it really good to get your work and develop it in Windows, personally. But that's because I'm a sucker for blood and for punishment, as they say. Anyways, yeah, no, it's great. We use EZNEC for modeling our antennas and various transmission line built at Balin, actually just last night. And have that in line there. And so got that radio set to 14.14 there in eager anticipation. And yeah, so that's great. I put that in the line. And my S meter is sitting right on the peg, resting peacefully on the peg there. So that's good. And yeah, so there's lots of different things. I haven't even got to FT yet or the other digital modes, obviously. FL Digi is good for Olivia and other stuff like that. I set my computer time with the radio clock there using, I think it's multi-PSK or something like that. And so yeah, lots of different uses for that. I got this F2710, and it just plugs right into the computer with USB cable. So a little bit less complex than my old Canwood 430S. Over. Real good, Brendan. VH7 NRC from VE5UO. Very good. Nice looking check. Just checking out your QRZ page here. And yeah, thanks for sharing that. It sounds like it makes slight use of computers. And that's excellent to hear and the applications you're talking about. Don't feel shame because you use Windows. I'll just join you in that I like to do some of my development on the Windows side of things, even run Linux subsystem for Windows. And VS Code sometimes on the Windows side as well. I do like having some of the automated backups and things on the Windows side where I really don't have to worry about my code or my backups from N1MM or my other logging programs. Those can be backed up to the cloud. I kind of like that. Sometimes you don't want to have to manage all of your storage. So yeah, there's some upsides to it. Lots of complaining about what you got to give up to get some of those free features. All right, thanks again, Brendan. Appreciate it. And I should move on down the line here because I haven't gone to the US yet. And I'm quite late. But there is one other check in here. Tony in Gothenburg, Sweden. Zero mic 6 x-ray golf. Thanks for joining the Trans-Canada Net, Tony. Very much appreciate hearing from you. And tell us how you use computers in this. I'll be glad. Yeah, good evening from here. Good afternoon there, I think it is. Some 6x GP here, Tony in Gothenburg. Yeah, a lot of computers. But actually, I tried to combine them into one machine. I have a lot of Raspberry Pi's laying around. But I have more and more going over to Docker containers and virtual machines. And a while ago, I stumbled across the workstation of the Rembrandt model, Z240, I think it is. And it has quite good processor and memory. And I installed a hard drive into it, two terabyte hard drive together with SSD. And it works very well. I run DPM there as a host. And I run a lot of Docker containers there. And also, Holstar node, which I use right now, or AWS node. And running that, I have a 6 link node. It's another repeater system we use over here. So when I'm about to use 6 link, I use virtual machine. So I also have a DMR hotspot with a WPSD on it. And I have an older Holstar node with a Cherry Pi on it. So I have a lot of computers and Raspberry Pi's. But I try more and more to get over to containers and virtualization just to save space on this little desk. And have more one place to go to when I have to manage them. So that's what I'm doing over here. No AHS going on. I only use 2 meter, 7 centimeter. And no antennas over here for AHS. No possibility to put them up anyway. So Holstar is nice. It's my way to get around the world. Back to you, guys. And take six GPs. Very good, Tony. And you're the first one to mention containers. To mention Docker and super functionality that you can get from containerization and microservices of sorts that way. But fantastic way to bring up a system with the applications included and becoming much more popular. And that said, I do not have actually a containerization platform running in my shack right now. But it will soon because I want to be running video streaming software and things like that from within my shack here. So need to build up a new NAS and possibly a bit of a home lab here. So very good. Thanks again, Tony. And appreciate you sharing your information and joining us from Gothenburg from the west coast of Sweden. Now a little bit of a geography lesson here because I did not realize where Gothenburg was relative to Stockholm, for example, which of course is probably a more popular known city here in Western Canada. So very good. Thanks again. All right, I'm going to move to the United States. I apologize for our American participants because I'm probably about 15 minutes late for getting down here. So hopefully I'm giving you enough time to check in with the United States of America for the Trans-Canada Net today. Please join us now. Kilo 6 Papa K Lima K6 KKL build. Whiskey N November 4 Victor WN 4V South Florida. WN 4V. KK 7 and QN Kilo K7 November Quebec November Hunter in Washington. All right, got two stations. Kilo 6 Papa Kilo Lima. Thanks, Bill, for joining us. And Whiskey N November 4 Victor, I believe that's John. We'll start with Bill. And then Tisha, California. Go ahead, Bill. OK, I use Raspberry Pi 2. OK, I use Raspberry Pi 2 to communicate with you right now. And it's on my repeater. And I build a repeater, and it has a Kenwood transceiver. And that's on simplex, on 444 megs. And that's on talking, and I can go around the town and all that. And so again, well, that's my Raspberry Pi 2. And I have a Raspberry Pi 3, which is linked to the Manteca repeater down at the water tower. And that ties in for All-Star. And Echo Link to give the repeater connectivity throughout the area. That repeater also is a fusion repeater. So it'll work both ways, digital and analog, as well as we can go this other way. My other equipment I have is, and you can see on QRZ, is a smartphone that's not a smartphone. It's actually an internet-only device. And I have a couple of those, and I really like those. Interrupted by telephone calls or anything else, and I can connect it in Echo Link and look at my email and do things and not be interrupted. And so you see it on QRZ, on my call. And basically, that's what I have on that. And again, well, my HF transceivers and everything, I have iComm. And so I'm very diversified in what I do here and in my amateur radio adventures. So now you know a little bit more about that. And I'm out here working on a 12-gig, on a 12-gig hertz offset dish, trying to make it work right now. So in the yard. So we're just busy with different projects. K6, thank you. This is repeater station. Thanks, Bill. Kilo 6, Kilo and Liam. I'm in air control, Victor Echo 5, uniform Oscar. And I'm going to always count on you to join the net there, Bill. Appreciate that. And thanks for describing the things you're into there. It sounds very interesting. And I always like to hear more about it. All right, down the list to Whiskey November 4, Victor, I believe that's John in Onaco, Florida. Not right. But thanks for joining us, John. Go ahead. Victor, Victor Echo 5, uniform Oscar, WN4V. Hello, good afternoon, Dave. Thank you very much for allowing me to check into the net. Currently it's very good. Node 5278. This is ChromeVox. I own one Windows computer I use for walking. But this one is an Asus Chromebook with Echo Link on it. And I also have 10 other computers in various strategic spots around my apartment. My preference, I also use another laptop I have for Peanut. I do quite a good activity on Peanut. And my preference is for Lenovo laptops. And again, I prefer ChromeVox and the Chrome operating system for various reasons, ease of use and that sort of thing. But I appreciate you letting me check in. I'm sure there are others that will be waiting. And again, I wish everyone a good afternoon in South Florida. By the way, my QTH is Bradenton, Florida. And I live, let's see, 79 kilometers south of the city of Tampa on the west coast. P5U0WN4V, South Florida. OK, thanks, John. I appreciate that. And just a quick question for you. Are you doing that with Chrome OS or are you loading those Chromebooks with the Linux distribution? Go ahead. I'm using a Chrome operating system. At some point in the future, I may just do that. I'm loading with Linux right now. Just a Chrome operating system, that's all. Over. Thanks, John. I appreciate that. Yeah, I wasn't aware that those applications would run under Chrome OS. So that's news to me. I'm not a Chrome OS user. But my daughter, Ra, who graduated university a few years ago, exclusively used Chrome OS for her for her academic work. It's just a simpler operating system for her, at least for her as a university student. All right, thanks again, John. Appreciate you joining the net and sharing the information with us. And please join us again in the future. Any other stations to check in from the United States of America, please join us now. Hero 7, November, Quebec, November, Hunter, and Washington.

Hey, Paul. Yeah, good afternoon, Jack and everyone on the net. We've had a beautiful day here in Maine. It's 80 degrees. Yeah, it's 80. The sunny and calm wind and low humidity can't beat that. Yeah. And we haven't had any more Canadian smoke since the weekend. So that's a good thing. Monday, it was pretty bad. And I've kind of been off the radio more this past week because my wife took a spill. And she fractured three vertebrae and a rib. So she was home for a bit. So I was helping her. And she's able to go back to work in the last couple of days. So she's doing better. Still sore. The doctor said it's just rest. Take it easy. Don't list anything. Just favor it as much as you can. And she has a desk job. So she's patting her chair and stuff. So she's doing OK. Not perfect, but OK. Better than she was. So yeah, that was an unfortunate thing. But yeah, we're celebrating her birthday this weekend. So that'll cheer her up with a lobster dinner. That's what we're going to do. Anyway, we're going to enjoy the rest of the afternoon. Hope you do too, Jack. Have a great day. And we'll talk again soon. This is KC1DQS. All right, yeah, I think, no, I'm not sure you mentioned that your wife had the spill there. Oh, that's a bummer. Oh, boy. All right, so she's got the desk job. She's getting back to work. Or she had a limited schedule. Does she have the ability to take some personal time off if she needs? Yeah, she does have sick leave. And she did take some of that. She actually fell off our dock and landed on rocks. And that's what did the injury. And it was a wound shear. She put a little too much weight on it. And the chair gave way. And both of them ended up off the dock. So that was not fun. And she did take some time. But she's trying to save as much as she can. Because the end of the 23rd, she goes on vacation for two weeks. And she's trying not to cut into that time. Because she's not ever had two weeks in a row before. And she's really looking forward to this. So she says if she can grin and bear it, she's going to try to see it through. And the doctor said there's no limitations as long as you. Lifting is a bad thing. And not a lot of walking. That kind of bothers her. But sitting doesn't so much. And as long as she can tolerate that, the doctor said she's fine. So there's nothing that's going to come out of place. It's all just mostly cracks or fractures. And nothing is just lodged or anything. So anyway, hopefully that will help. And the only painkiller she's on is Tylenol. And she takes that regularly. And that does help. So yeah, it was one of those freak things that happened. And you never know. So back to you, Jack. KC1-VQS. Hey, I7RMU with the new net here on the PSR. Do you hear Peter in Seattle, Washington? Well, Paulie, you did mention that. Yes, indeed. Yeah, yeah. As soon as you mentioned the dock and the rocks, oh boy. It all came flooding back. Well, you take care of her. And boy, that's really something. She's really lucky that it's not worse. That's for sure. And she's still able to get out on her vacation. Just take it easy. Well, I guess take some books. Take your Kindle. Have your phone nearby. And maybe you can rent a pedal, one of those petticaps. That would be kind of fun. Or something similar to that. And you'd be able to take a run on that somehow. I don't know. Well, anyway, you'll let us know. And that's really great. I'm glad that she's able to still build. All right. Well, Paulie, you have a great afternoon. Thank you for coming by. And all the best to you and your wife, of course. K6PKL. Hey, Bill. What's happening with you? Oh, I'm just sitting here lounging right now. Bubba, I need to get up. I want to mention to you about, or you said 3 million internationally, about having a ham license. And you know, when I listened into the WorldNet on TalkGroup 91 on Saturday, we have Check-In now, which is up over 500. OK, so. And that's from all over the world. And what my register in my AnyTone now has about 220,000 users in there. And that means whenever they transmit, well, it comes up and it gives me information about their location, their name and all that stuff on the screen on the AnyTone. And that will hold 500,000. So I can see that we're seeing this. And as fast as I load in the new database in there, which takes probably about 5, 10 minutes. But anyway, generally, I come on there and within a few days, I see new Check-Ins because it will just show there are no call. You have to register a number. You probably know that in DMR to be able to even access the repeater. It won't even recognize you unless you have an ID number. So anyway, I thought I'd mention that. Yeah, our hobby continues to say really vibrant K6P Hill. Well, it truly is the hobby of the thousand, the hobbies as K7DRQ famously said. That's Quentin, of course. So yeah, it's really just amazing hobby. And it's a great service as well. So many different aspects. And we like them all, even though we haven't tried them. And sometimes we haven't even heard of them. But when we hear something new, you go, wait, what's that? I got to look that up. OK. Anyway, all right, Bill. You have a great afternoon. Thanks for checking in today. Let's see what else is out there. Let's do, let's see what time is it? 1252. I think I'll do last call then for the new net. I'm Jack KI7RM. You're on the PSR gear, two meter repeater here in Seattle, Washington. So command call sign name, last call. WFM. JFM. John. John, I've got you. Who's doubling with John, please?"},{"callsign_confidence":0.94,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-08-13T13:13:08+00:00","id":16729,"node_number":"oldsys","recording_id":16728,"text":" Have a great time and we'll talk to you soon. Let's go talk to Bill, K6PKL. Bill, are you out riding a trike or are you doing something else right now? Go ahead. I'm at my home QTH right now, so I'm up. And my audio level should have come down using this radio, so still a lot you need to tell me. By the way, you know, after me saying that I wasn't gonna do it, I bought another radio. And several years ago I bought TYT DMR radios. And so I decided there was time to do a little upgrade for my mobile, because I needed a screen on there that was more visible, you know, in a mobile. So anyway, so I bought an 80-tone DMR radio, a mobile, so anyway. So, you know, I'm gonna have to stop telling you, but well, I'm just not gonna buy another radio, because that just isn't what happened. So I think I was obsessed in a ham radio order, A6PKL. All right, well, hey, you have a great afternoon, Bill. Yeah, audio's still a tad hot, but maybe just crank it back a half a tick, you're probably gonna be fine. Well, I haven't said this on here for a long time, but you know, you remember James Bowen, right? Well, he has a license to kill. Hams have a license to buy, so there you go. Now, is the TYT DMR, is that the new radio? I have the newest mobile, it's called ATV578UV3 Plus. So it's the newest one that'll hold about probably about 100,000 contacts, and it's got all these fancy features in there, Bluetooth, and it's got all that stuff, you know, I mean, it's really fancy. So now all I gotta do is program it so that I won't use it as a tent. You know, the whole thing is I don't wanna be distracted by the radio when I'm driving, so usually what I do is I set it up before I leave the vehicle, use the parking area where we're just, so that's how I do it, and I leave it that way while I'm traveling, so I don't make any change that way, otherwise it's too distracting. But anyway, yeah, and you know, in California down here, they allow you to have a fixed radio in your vehicle that has a handheld control, K-60L. Okay, one last question. I know that if you buy a radio much like that, where in fact you can probably buy that one from them, from Broadcom, Broadcom will actually program it with stations that you would like and things in your area, of course, and all that, so was this a Broadcom purchase, or did you buy it somewhere else, maybe locally or what? Yeah, I bought it through Amazon, so I know it was them, but basically what I'll do is I'll take my other Antitone HTs, which I have a couple of them, and I'll take the code block out of those and move it over to this radio, and then I'll do some of the modifications, and this radio is totally on lock, so I can use it in areas that are not in amateur radio services, but that way, even though I won't do it unless it's emergency service, but basically it's a fancy unlock radio, you know, I bought it through them, and I can do all that programming myself. I've built the code block for my other Antitones, K-60L. All right, that's the way to do it, yep, that's great. All right, well, hey, I'm glad you're enjoying that. Yeah, thanks for cranking the audio back. That was just about right, I'd say. That was a great effect compared to where you started, so it's fantastic. Bill, you have a great afternoon.

So we had some probably close to two pounds that we produced out here. So I get some cherry tomatoes, and so we have different things and cucumbers. And so I was working on that. So, and everything of the ham radio wives is working on my end. And again, I'm using my simplex repeater here, which is our .444 mix, so that covers the community. And so in fact, I can actually, I can run my mobile out probably about over 10 miles and with 40 watts, and I can still command my repeater system I have here. So anyways, so now you know about that, K6PKL. Okay, K6PKL, thank you very much for that report. We don't grow big tomatoes at my place here. My wife has one of the, a plant with just a small grape-sized tomatoes, and that usually gives us enough that we're going all, she ends up with having to make all kinds of stuff out of them because there's so many. And it's only one plant. So we're doing well with that, and obviously you do too. Okay, K6PKL, thank you very much.

And that also reminds me, and of course most of you who are listening right now, iCom has just released the IC7300 Mark II. Ah yes, you could possibly get it at the end of 2025. And it was just announced in one of the Japan hand fests. And that should be interesting, I'm wondering what all the big improvements are. I have seen the YouTube video that iCom has put out of all the new improvements and add-ons. I can't wait to see what the user base is posting on YouTube as to what they find the benefits of the new rig. And I'm also wondering what the price point is going to be. Because it has an HDMI port on it and you know what, the reason why the 7300 didn't have an HDMI port on it is because of licensing. That technology, you have to pay for that. It's not a freebie like DVID and stuff like that. Anyway, thanks again for joining us this week. We're at the bottom of the list calling for final check-ins.

Hi, yeah, all star, yeah, with so many options there, we're really great. Again, with the hobby being so big, sure, it lends itself to adapt as we need, which I think is really core to amateur radios. Adaptation, flexibility, R&D, different tools for different jobs, different situations. Glad to hear you there. Look forward to catching you down the log. Enjoy the rest of your day, Paul.

I build a satellite antenna, got it as a kid out of China, and I put together so a little later here, I'm going to start seeing what I could do on that dual band antenna at the Yankee, and it has a duplexer build in, all that stuff. So that's my next adventure there, seeing what I can do on the satellite. So it appears to me like I may have to buy another transceiver man because the earlier comment, whether he does a lot of this stuff on satellite on sideband and I may have to do the same thing. I have a single two meter sideband transceiver, but I don't have one over dual band. You need that for a satellite because it goes in for 40 and out in two meters. K6PKL, have a good one. Everybody out there and hang in there. K6PKL from BY1MGS."}]}
