I can say that because I had a V8000 for a while too and I had trouble with it. So I swore off of ICON mobile in any of my vehicles and stuff. That was then I think they've changed since then but I go with Ken Woodson, Yaysuz and my cars. I've been like that for years. But here in the shack everything's ICON. And I've never had a problem with an ICON like the my 756 Pro. My 7600 still sitting here. I bought that brand new. The 7610 so far I haven't had any problems with more than 9700. So the stuff for the house is good and I'm sure the mobile is improved as well but I'm still mad. Wow that's an interesting story. It's too bad they couldn't make good on that.

I know that sucks, but, you know, hopefully that author will take that out. You just take it back tomorrow morning and maybe they'll be nice to you and not rent it to you for a whole day.

It seems to make a pretty good difference than just one single antenna by itself. So Anyway, you'll have fun with that and I look forward to hearing you on it too. It will make a big difference. That's for sure. Anyway, and yeah, I know I've had I've had that problem at rental house twice.

It's pretty long, so. And all that. But yeah, you'll enjoy that. It's really a really good antenna. And it works great on 2 meters, for sure. And then I have the SG7900 to accompany that one on 440.

And that's a great place to go check in to their repeaters on Capitol Hill down there in Seattle. So give that one a try, but if you're outside the area and you can hear the repeaters, they have receivers everywhere. So they got one on Cougar, used to have one on Buck. And there's one up in Mount Lake Terrace. And I believe there's one on Capitol Hill on Queen Anne Hill as well. At least that's the way it used to be. And stuff.

I've checked in from Sammish overlook here last Saturday and that was a lot of fun and it's fun to go out and portable parking lots, high places and that's see who you can hear. It's also a great way to check out your station and see how many people you can hear when they check into it. That's another great use for that net as well.

You run it up the trams, you loosen the tram off the come along, and the whole thing just falls against the side of the tower and you put your U-bolts in and you're done. But sometimes it's hard to get to that point, but anyway. Have a good one there, Mike. Yeah, I'll let you know. And there is going to be a time.
