Doing pretty good. I got a little bit of a late start this morning trying to contact a customer and I realized that I had his phone number once upon a time, but I didn't put it someplace where I would permanently remember it or recall it. So I called the company phone number and I don't know if it's my cell phone or what, but it's like it doesn't even ring. Then I called this other company phone number and it gives me something in Spanish, so I little frustrated that I tried to reach this guy and I'm trying to go over there to pop up and deliver some materials to a customer and this guy is the customer.

Yesterday, a charter boat sunk up in the Strait of Georgia, a little south of Vancouver Airport around Richmond. Anyway, I think four people were rescued and there were six missing at the last I heard, and apparently none of them had PFDs on, which is really tragic. And I have a hunch, the outcome's not going to be very good on that one. Okay, let's move on to, did I say K-I7-GL for ID if I didn't? I just did again. Austin, W7-Z-JL.

It's 6.52 p.m. in the afternoon here Wednesday and I'm just at my desk working. Got done with my normal 1.09 a.m. meeting, which happens at 6 p.m. here. I'm working kind of U.S. hours, early ones, but like 5 a.m. to 1 p.m. West Coast time or something. There's an immense amount to report, but most importantly, I don't know if you caught a report a couple weeks ago about the neighbor I met. He was a soldier in the Ukrainian army here visiting his wife and family on vacation from the army. His wife and son are refugees, I understand, from Ukraine. And he was in the actual fort in the army. I saw some wires out on their patio and went and knocked on the door and was welcomed into their home. It was really, really cool. He gave me a couple QSL cards, I have all QSL cards, QSL cards. And they're QSL cards. I don't deal with them too much, so forgive me. But I heard a rattle in the hallway just now, and I saw the family loading up on the elevator, and it was really nice to say goodbye to him. I apologize, I don't know his name, but I have a couple call signs that he operated under. U.R.3.I.S.D. as well as U.T.3.U.Q.J. He's big as f*** me. But anyways, it was kind of an emotional exchange in front of the elevator there. I said, are you shipping out? And he said, yep, I'm going back to Ukraine, dude. And I'm like, I didn't know what to say. The words that came out of my mouth were God bless. And I said, keep up the good work and safe travels. We hugged in quite a moment for me there. But yeah, we've been having a ton of fun around Europe. We've been based in Amsterdam. And speaking of the Tour de France, I went to the Grand Apart, believe it or not, in Lille on July 5th, quite something. I'm headed back to Paris this weekend to catch some more of the action on the final stage, I believe. And I'm being hosted by Internet friends in Paris not too far from the Eiffel Tower, honestly. So pretty cool and exciting times. I'll head back home on the 2nd of August. So sadly, I won't be around for the picnic. I'm going to miss another wonderful event. But maybe we'll take something in August or September. KI 7 UREAS 73 Man, I am so jealous. I'm having a wonderful and safe time over there in Europe. And yeah, I love Amsterdam. What a fun, goofy place. And yeah, lots of good memories in there. And yeah, you're coming back on our anniversary, as a matter of fact. So yeah, that's kind of cool. And we'll have to be getting together and get the stories when you get back, for sure. So take care and 73, and we will catch you later. All right, who else is out there that would like to check in? I am listening for you. Come ahead. KI 7 FWB OK, I got Matt with a recheck and I got FWB with a recheck. So I'm going to start with FWB. What you got, Bill? Take it away. Thanks, Dave. I have a book, about a 300 page book on guitars that have been wanting to give it to JSF. He's still listening. Since he's not coming to the Pink Vigids or anybody that he knows that's going to be there, they can grab that book and pass it on to him. Otherwise, it'll be here before he gets it. KI 7 FWB Well, we will find out. I would imagine there will definitely be somebody there that can pass it along, be it Jack or whoever. And I'm sure we can make arrangements for that. Hopefully somebody will chime in there and say, yes, I can do that. So we shall see. In the meantime, back to Matt. KI 7 UAF with a recheck. Go ahead. I think you had Tim in there, Dave. You made a mistake, Tim, for me. I can't think of his call sign right now. But Tim, KI 7 UAF. Oh, OK. I probably was, Tim. My apologies. There you go. And Matt, by the way, it's really cool to meet that fellow from the Ukraine. And that's very cool. So, hey, you two here. Have a great day. Have a great time over there. And I can't wait to hear the rest of the stories. So 73, Tim, KI 7 UAF, is that you? Yes, indeed it is. I'm here at my favorite Arco station, South River, actually kind of by Mill Creek. I can't remember what the name of the street is. It means exit, I think it's 1964 street or something. Anyway, I hope everyone likes hot weather because that's what we got in store today. I found out I'm going to be going to South Korea for a short visit. We've got a customer that's going to visit a factory my company has there. It's kind of silly because all their production has been in China. And, you know, labor is cheap in China, all the suppliers are in China, etc, etc, etc, etc. That's why the company is in China. But there's this big push, you know, move things out of China. We don't want to have things sent from China. This can't be labeled China. There's regulations. There's industry standards and so forth. So, a couple years ago our company bought a very small company in South Korea. I think it has something like 10 employees. Not set up for manufacturing at all. And we're trying to turn that into like a manufacturing center and impress all of our customers. Oh yeah, we can ship from South Korea. Nope, not only ship from South Korea, it has to be made in South Korea. So, anyway, it's kind of a charade. One of the problems with South Korea, of course, is that everything is more expensive. Labor is more expensive, everything, etc, etc. So, it's not going to save anybody any money to be shipping stuff from South Korea. But we're playing this game. I'm not trying to get political. I'm just saying it's international stuff, you know. So, anyway, I'll be going there. In August, mid-August is probably about the 17th or so for three or four days. Because our customer wants to visit the site and do a site tour, which I hope we can convince him that some activity is actually happening there. I know they aren't expanding the factory so that you can't actually produce stuff there. But it's not a simple or easy process. Anyway, it's a beautiful sunny day. Everyone get up there, wear your sunscreen or hat or sunglasses or whatever you need to protect yourself. KI7ZI. Hey, Tim. Well, hopefully it'll be a profitable and good trip to South Korea. That'd be cool. Lots of friends from there and I've known lots of people from there. So, there you go. Well, 73s and I hope that works out well for you. Yeah, international sales right now are really... Most of the equipment my wife works with is from overseas somewhere. You know, from Canada to Europe or you name it. And they're running into the same thing. It's what a can of warm assistance become. So, there you go. Well, 73s and we will catch you later. And this is Kilo Delta 7, Papa Whiskey Bravo 8, the High Desert Pirate Radio. It's 10 a.m. I'm listening for more radio check-ins, comments, complaints or anything for the good of the net. Please come ahead."},{"callsign_confidence":0.94,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-07-25T09:38:35+00:00","id":9962,"node_number":"oldsys","recording_id":9961,"text":" for that kind of stuff so thumbs up on that. Back in business, hit the road. Alright, Tim, just a little stop matter. Hello and good morning, KI-7, ZI. Hello, good morning, yes. I think some people were waking up a little late this morning because we're used to having bright sunshine to help wake us up and we got cloudy sunshine today or pretty much overcast. Today the sun is going to break through here pretty soon though. I'm in Shoreline. Yesterday I drove down to South Center. I was a little short on battery range on my EV here and I figured I could make it back up to Shoreline but I didn't want to take a chance because I would have been just a couple of miles of success. So I found a place to charge down there. So far I've been getting all my charging for free at the Shoreline City Hall, which is a significant amount. I figured over $400 I'd save by not having to pay for any charging anywhere. But I went to a charge point. I think it's charge point is the name of the place. I thought it signed up for an account but apparently I hadn't completed signing up. Anyway, to make a long story short, it took me an hour and a half to get the account thing straightened out. And it turns out apparently when I initially started the account that there's far down in one of the application pages, this is on my smartphone, not so smartphone because it's free as a PC and I can see a lot more what's on the screen. But you're supposed to select a country and the default should be United States since we're here in the United States, the company is located in the United States. But it turns out the default is like Spain or something. So my account was accidentally, inadvertently by operator error in a poor user interface room. The company's standpoint defaulted to Spain. Anyway, it took me an hour and a half to get that all straightened out and to get some charge in my car. So it was reasonably priced. It was $4.50. It took me about 110 miles of range. So I'm left with a close by gasoline. And by the way, that was a City of Seattle site. So it's only 21 cents a kilowatt hour, which is the standard residential rate. So pretty good. Nice to know where the cheaper charging stations are. Anyway, back up here in Shoreline, I will charge my car up for tonight. And other than that, yes, I'll get the picnic. In fact, I'll be there early for setting up, bringing donuts. Hope everyone has a good day meanwhile.

So I don't know when it's ever gonna be done, but by the time they get it done, they'll probably have to do something with the southbound lane. Ha ha ha ha. Well Jack, thanks for doing that, and thanks for all the wonderful comments. I remember going to the Renaissance Fair when it was just a handful of people in the woods. Ha ha ha. Up around Ithaca I think somewhere. Yeah, it's come a long ways, and I would have liked to have taken that in if I knew about it. So that's it for me, and have a great Sunday everybody, and 7 GWG. All right Steve, you take care of that foot. Yeah, I'm glad you got to the Urgent Care facility right away, good job. All right, well if I could get you through that, of course, now you've got your medications. And say hi to Donna and the dozer of course. All right, let's go talk to Michael, he's got a comment, WA780. Well Jack, good morning to you, and everybody that's on the net. This is Whiskey Alpha 7 Alpha Delta, Michael from my home KTH. This is my regular check in, Jack, not a comment. So anyway, it's a great day, I don't know how the Blue Angels are gonna do it, they have to do the low thing I think, unless it burns off. And let's see, oh the big event for me, I gotta drive up to East Nomes County. We're gonna get together with our Bigfoot team, and I guess go over stuff, I don't know. I've got my list of things I pack, already made up, I do it every year. When I come home I revise it before I go through it again. Anyway, that's all that's going on here, thanks for on the great net. I don't know if you get two check ins, one mobile and one home KTH, maybe you get two marks on your little sheet there Jack. Anyway, everybody have a safety out there, Whiskey Alpha 7 Alpha Delta. All right, well normally you would start your day here on the nets as a regular check in with a report, but today you started with a comment. So yes, this is the second entry I have for you there Michael. Hey, but real quick if you're gonna be out that way, Snomish for the Bigfoot 200 race planning session today, any chance you can go by Craven Farm and check that event out? Well, I'm more worried about getting lost in the hicks of East Nomes County trying to find David Ball's house than the Craven Farm, so it's a good almost 45 minute, 50 minute drive out to where I'm going, I'll have to get the map out. Do it. Donor Craven Farm is not too excited about the big trucks and stuff, so that's up, I do have a eight foot, bad F-150, that's all I'll be driving to Bigfoot, so. Hey Jack, that's it, thanks for asking, back to you sir, Whiskey Alpha 7 Alpha Delta. Yeah, I was gonna mention that big truck that you have if you weren't going to, well you know, and hey, can't wait, Robert will be in the parking lot, so all you gotta do is just go to the parking lot and see if apparently I don't think they're charging any admission though, because it's a first time event. You know, I think you probably just get in for free. Anyway, all right, you take care, Michael, have a good time, and let us know how the Bigfoot session goes today. KI7Z, you're on the right track, KI7Z, yeah we're here with Dr. Tim in just a moment, it's 10, 12 a.m., I'm Jack, KI7RMU for the Sunday PSRG, nine o'clock, Ned, Tim, take it away, KI7ZEI. Well it's another beautiful day here in the great Northwest, yeah, starting out a little cloudy, maybe even a little cool, but it's kinda nice having a day like that once in a while and with the mix of the warmer days we've been having. So I think today will be kind of a carbon copy of yesterday's, so I'm supposed to come out. I'm getting ready for a trip this time tomorrow, I'll be half on my way to Alexandria, Virginia, gonna visit some friends there for a couple of days, got some work to do up in the Boston area, so I'm running a car, gonna take a trip for about a week, doing some driving, and back on the 14th. Got some things to do to get ready. I remember three, four years ago they had some kind of big get together down at, I thought it was like Seattle King County Emergency Communication Center. Jack, you might even remember this, or someone will, because there was a lot of hams there. Anyway, it was an emergency services kind of introduction and meeting, and looked like a pretty well-secured facility down there, chain link fencing all around the building down there, it was kind of in Seattle area, dried down, kind of new downtown. Can't find it in the Google though now. But they were taking some questions, and I asked if they were prepared for the zombie apocalypse, and the presenter said no. I don't think I'm prepared either, but that's one of my goals, getting prepared for it. Any kind of apocalypse, zombie or otherwise. Well, with that, wish everyone a good day, and back to you Jack, KI7ZI. All right, Temple, it looks like you will be out of town for the next Rain or Shine, and I'm gonna cover the announcements real quick, right after I stop talking here, and switch over to that. But I do wanna comment, but you will be back in time for the PSARA Antique Radio and Vintage Electronics Swap meet, and I think you went to that last year, maybe the previous year up at Shoreline Community College. Is that one of the shows you went to? I don't think I did go to that. Now that I live in Shoreline, I'm gonna start participating in more Shoreline events, finding out it's a pretty nice place here. But I will go this year, because I'm interested in that kind of stuff. Had an antique radio once, and someone gave me, but it was basically disintegrating the, tuning capacitor, the, it was, had corrosion, and the plates were falling off, and yeah, you know. So, it's been a long time since I had a working radio. Back when I was in high school, my dad took me down to St. Vincent de Paul in Seattle, and we bought this big, shortwave radio, all-band everything, everything, with big, kinda loopy antenna thing, and a little matchy guy for tuning. That was pretty cool. That was kind of my real introduction to heavy duty radio. KI-7 ZEI. Yeah, those worldwide receivers were pretty massive units, too. Well, I've got, talk about massive units, I've got a number of Collins pieces that I'm gonna be taking to that show, I hope, and I've got a great Kenwood Transceiver from back in the day, and that thing is like a tank, too. So, I've got a couple of pieces I'll be taking up there and seeing what we can do with them. All right, we'll have a safe trip to Alexandria. We'll talk to you along the way. I know you'll probably check in many times, and we hope you do there, too, and safe travels to you. All right, so real quickly, here are a couple of events. 10, 16 a.m. Next weekend, we are busy, busy, busy on the night. That's Saturday, the Radio Club at Tacoma does their open house, 10 a.m. to two, and then, of course, later that night, we have got the PS, or not the PSRG, but the Simplex net, there we go, 8 p.m., 146560 every Saturday, but in the middle of the day, 1.30 p.m. On Zoom, we have the next PSRG board meeting, 1.30 p.m. That's August 9th, Saturday, so come on by and join the fun there. Now, on Sunday, though, August 10, PSRG season seven, episode five, Rain or Shine net, it's a new net and ice cream social at Green Lake, so get on the website, psrg.org for all the details there. Come out and have an ice cream with us. That'd be a lot of fun. All right, and of course, the 17th, August 17th, Sunday, again, is the antique radio and vintage electronics swap meet the PSRA at Shoreline. Again, all the information can be found on the PSRG discussion group page and home page. All right, any questions there? Command, call and find a name. This is repeater station kilo kilo seven, November Quebec November. All right, we're still going. Let's see what's out there for the nine o'clock net. If you'd like to join us, RF internet command, call and find a name. West key seven, Oscar Hotel, Dan. All right, Dan, anybody else? KB seven RYY, Dan. Dan, you're on the list. Anyone else, please? K308. Morning Rich, I've got you, anybody else? Kilo Zulu Bravo X-ray Joel. Hi, Joel, I've got you. All right, anybody else? All right, Dan, how are you doing this morning? W70H, go ahead. Doing good, stand by one second. You caught me literally at the drive-through and they were handing me my soda. I had to grab it and put it in the container. I think there's a natural timing when I go for food. I could call the radio in. Anyway, I'm going down to the museum today. Today's the final day of the Seafair Air Show. I don't know if it'll be high. I think it'll clear though it may work. I took a bunch of pictures on Thursday of the Blue Angels and some others flying on the preliminary and it's not a lot over the museum. They moved the center of the air show a little south and east. I was on Newcastle and such, probably don't like it, but it's still great to see there. I'll go down and just stay inside, do my dosage duties. That's the plan for the day. Anyway, I think that's about it for the day. I'm gonna say have a good day. Sorry, I had to wait and try to listen to her and talk to you. Anyway, 73, and I look forward to the ice cream social especially, it's not the ice cream, it's the social. 73W708. All right, Dan, hey, you have a great day, last day of the Seafair. And yeah, get some more pictures if you can. We love putting up the pictures. All right, we'll see you at the Rainer Shine Net. That'll be a lot of fun. KB7RYY, Dan, good morning. Good morning, Jack, this is Dan, KB7RYY. I'm almost recovered from that trek up Mount Pilchuck the day before last. Oh, rocks, I don't like rocks. Anyway, I'm coming back from a hike of half of Boston Creek anyway, and I heard a few things I had talked about. First of all, the shortwave, there was some discussion about a shortwave, I forget what it was, but the shortwave bands are kind of opening up. There's people broadcasting, and funny thing, no Voice of America, no Jammers, what's this mean? Let me let it drop. The other thing was I was gonna talk about, I hosted a few boaters nets this week. Those faithless boaters, you know? Instead of doing that, they gotta go out in their boats. All right, back to you, Jack. KB7RYY. All right, Dan, and some of the boaters go out for a couple of weeks at a time, so I heard a couple of stations are definitely out. So was it kind of a lean pickings, I guess, huh? Yeah, Vic and I were alternating during the week, and then Vic took off. He's up at Port Ludlow, and now I think he can come in on Echo Link, but it's a little. It's the schedule filling up for the next week, so I get a little break. KB7RYY. All right, well, it was nice to hear Carlos this morning. That's good. All right, Dan, well, you have a great Sunday, Santa. You in, please? Let's get over to Rich, West Seattle, K30E. And yeah, the Ice Cream Social, of course, but the other event, oh, Jack. I went there one time so far, and I just may have to go again, you know? And yeah, the one time I did go, I think it was a couple of our fans. I think JD was there, and JD was there. So anyway, I don't know, maybe this time, I guess any game, I'll probably check in the beautiful morning, nice and cool. We're going to get more Roger shortly, that season, I think, really. All right, thank you very much, Rich. You have a great day. Santa had a polo for me, if you would. Let's go see what Joel's up to. Joel, take it away. Hi, Jack. Yeah, nice morning, nice cool morning in Kirkland. We'll take a run later on before this marine layer burns off, because I like it when it's cool. I'm just trying out the HTs, which I heard from good reports. Enjoyed that. One thing is, I can't remember who the operator was, but someone in Lake Washington yesterday mentioned you can listen to the Blue Angels. They have some certain frequencies that load AM as aircraft. But if you do a search for Blue Angels, see their frequencies, you'll find it on radioreference.com. And sure enough, I heard they listen to Airbus and Sol 1, and can make out what they're saying, never can make out what Alice is saying. But it has a new dimension to enjoying the Blue Angels, if you can hear them. That's it, KK7ZBX. All right, Joel. Hey, have a great Sunday. Enjoy sea fair last day. And yeah, just keep tuning in. The more you listen, the more you'll probably be able to make out when they're making transmissions at a couple of miles an hour. It's going to be fun. All right, nice to hear you, Joel. All right, we'll do the last call now at 10, 20, I want to say 12, 24, jeez. 10, 24 AM, I'm Jack KI7, I'll read the last call. Anybody else for the 9 o'clock net? T-Mobile Juliet 7, Romeo Alpha Bravo, Yay for the recheck. Check. All right, 35 minutes from Gates opening up out there at Snohomish Field of Wheels. Take it away, Kami, KJ7RAB. Thank you so much, Jack, Kami, KJ7RAB. We just arrived at the Field of Wheels. Wow, this is pretty impressive. We just won a lot from the parking lot. The guys come back, we open at 11, and Walter explains that we're doing working out at the net, and can we come and just get our parking spot. He let us in, so we're parked where we're going to. So I wanted to ensure that you can hear us clearly, and all is well. We're hearing you crystal clear here. So hoping the same is true on your end. And I'll do a live video running around so you all can see what's happening as soon as they open the gate and let us in. But we're parked here, and we're looking right at the Allied Motor Sports Jeep. So it looks to be awesome already. Thanks for letting me back, and let me know how the signal is. KJ7RAB, back to you. All right, no problem there. Thanks, Cameron. Well, I'm glad you got in. I figured you'd probably talk some sense into it. Hey, real quick, any women-owned Toyota is going to be at this event. Do you know anybody talking about it on the back line? This is repeated. I'm not sure. I haven't seen any chatter about it, and that's bad on me. I should have put some chatter about it out there. It's been a crazy couple of weeks, and I've been a little bit frazzled with work and everything going on in life in general. But one of my goals going forward is definitely to be a little bit more organized. But I'm always on the lookout for those LRT stripes and on the lookout for Toyotas in general. Oh, one of the things, a little bit off topic, but not really, that Robert says he's got going on there. FJ, people don't always wave at each other, and I'm always the one waving like crazy, and people don't always wave back. Well, we were driving down Highway 9 yesterday, and we passed an FJ going the other way. That guy rolled his window down, was waving frantically out the window, and even beeped at me, and I was like, whoa. Because my rig's all built up now, and his looked really stuck. And that kind of made my week, because I'm usually the one waving out the window frantically, and it was the other way around. So I thought that was pretty cool, and I wanted to share that with you. KJ7RAB, back to net. Well, you're a blue FJ. You have definitely earned some bragging rights there. It is really looking good, looking great down at the Communications Museum. We had such a good time looking at that when you rolled in with the new light bar and all that. Oh, fantastic. All right, you have a good time down there. Cammie Robert hosting today at noon, so 90 minutes away or so, from the Field of Wheels into the home. It's that new event out there. Runs 11 AM to 4 this afternoon. All right, thank you, Cammie. All right, anybody else? One last call for the 9 o'clock net."},{"callsign_confidence":0.94,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-08-30T12:18:46+00:00","id":28258,"node_number":"oldsys","recording_id":28257,"text":" Okay, that silence means I can go to the top of this current wave, KI7, ZI, Kim, what project do you have cooking this time?

It is a beautiful night out. Let's see, 63 degrees, so not bad at all. Let's see. I spent the day painting. Not all of the day, because I got a little bit of a late start, and I had to go buy a fresh kind of paint to match the color of the steps. I was painting the railings. Man, the painting of the railings is taking like forever. I got to go down all those little posts and paint around the edge. I thought I would have it all done today, but I don't. I'll still be working on it a bunch tomorrow. Because, you know. Anyway, that was fun. I didn't take any hand cleaner with me. It's just latex paint, but I still have some pretty well dried on my hands here, so I need to deal with that, I guess. Or wait until it just wears off, which it will over time. Let's see, today while I was mumbling around, I actually was just after the new net. There was a station from Florida. I think it was KX4. I don't have it written down, but a guy from Frank. I called in the first time on Echo Link, from the time I entered the PSRG. So I welcomed him and told us all about the times we have the nets and all that good stuff. He said he will be checking in now and then. Nice to have visitors from all over the country, all over the world. So, anyway, tomorrow we're going to have another beautiful day here in the Pacific Northwest. It's supposed to get up to about 73 or 74 maximum, which is fine because I'm planning to take someone to dinner at Iver's salmon house for sunlight and sunset. So it should be good weather for that, which is why I'm doing it tomorrow because it's supposed to be the last nice warm day. And then after that it cools off a little bit. Anyway, so, that's my plan for the next 24 hours. And I hope everyone has a good evening.

It's usually on like horizon or you know a regional airline So if the if the airline is taking subsidies for those routes They can stop offering that during a shutdown Because they're not getting any money for it. So Anyway, I just wanted to toss that my little two cents on that out there So some of them might still operate depending on if it's profitable or not but if they're If the main source of the income for that flight comes from the government then they might shut that down until they start getting money Again, so anyway throwback to you kj7 wqi This is You have all out and that is exactly what I had heard Alright, well, thank you so much And I know you only thought that was worth two cents, but I'd say that was worth a whole dollar 289 so thank you so much.
