This is Dean, KG 7 ODB. Yeah, so I am across from Bitter Lake. Earlier I was considering walking over there and putting my toe in the water. I did that one time. You may have heard it a couple years back on one of Ben's nets because he'd always joked about how are you in Bitter Lake or are you at Bitter Lake. So I went over there and I just had the toe of my boot just barely in the water. I checked and I go, I'm in Bitter Lake. But I didn't do that. But one of these nights I'll do it. Hopefully before the end of the summer. But yeah, so I'm sorry to hear about Matt's grandfather. Here's the thing. You know when everybody unfortunately goes through situations like that and when it happens you tend to think that you're alone, you're isolated with it. But we all have been there. So you know, as Matt got on here and we're to talk about it more, I think there's a lot of people who would support him. And also, yeah, you know, in his line of work, I can imagine having to deal with these people who are really, really stressed out. You know, like the flight attendants or the people at the gate when somebody's late for their flight or whatever. But I've had a couple of occasions where I've just been nice to those people. I found it's easier than you think to talk your way into an upgrade or at least a better seat just by treating the gate attendant, whatever their official title is, and help them. So anyway, that's all I got. I think I'll probably go over to the Lake Washington event tomorrow. And Blythe Park is right near the Yakima Fruit Market. So that probably means that James might show up. We'll see. Oh, one other thing real quick. I always hear Jeff do his squirrel report, but I haven't heard him mention Fred the Crow recently. I hope Fred's OK. So anyway, KG7ODD, back to that."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-08-22T21:59:08+00:00","id":22002,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":22001,"text":" Red crow.

One day, one day we'll get another Dean is actually in Bitter Lake report. But, yeah, that's the thing. When you check into this net a bunch, even if you've checked into it once, it's a way of talking. It's communication. We're all, you don't, yeah, even if you don't want to talk, even if you just want to listen, we're all, we all go through it. We all have moments, we all go through it. So it's good to share and talk, but it's mostly important just to listen, just to listen and just know that there are people out there that, you know, that care about you. Yeah, but anyway. We'll have fun at the Rainershine tomorrow, Dean. I don't think that I will be going. As I talked about with Fred is I hate hot weather and I'm nervous about going because I don't want to die from exploding from heat. But we'll see. You never know. This is the interstation Kilo Kilo 7. Remember to call that November. Have a wonderful weekend and, yes. You know, I love to hear from you. You know it. All right.

That's quite the title there. This is KK7. Pardon my interruption. Let's see here. So before the net today, I had unit 5 and we were kind of poking around at some frequencies and seeing if there was anybody out there. And AF4ALL Bill from Virginia came back and talked to my daughter for a little bit. That was a lot of fun. I knew the PSRG repeater here would result in some sort of talk here, which was good. And we haven't done a lot of radio together in a little bit other than when we've been out of town recently. I definitely leave her a radio when she's in her bedroom and she's called down to mom and dad, but it was just a little different. Yeah, things have been good. It's been a while since I've been on the radio. I enjoy listening. Sometimes I have been absent in talking, but maybe I'll show it to the, the deal in Bothell tomorrow. It's going to be a scorcher.

Let's see, so my church, which is the North Shore Church in Kirkland, we're involved in something called the Community Serve Day. So I don't know if any of you guys are around the area in Kirkland, Lake Washington, school district, North Shore school district, but they do a big thing out here where basically the congregation shuts down for a Sunday and they don't do church on Sunday. That's pretty crazy. But what we do is we do a kind of a community serve thing where we go out to schools in the area and kind of get the school ready for all the kids to come. And there's about 24 schools that are served and about 16 years of this has been running. And if anybody's interested in doing it, it's a big deal. We're always looking for volunteers. It's communityserveday.org. Communityserveday.org. And it's a good time. Everybody's going to get out and clean up the schools for the kids and get it ready. Thought I'd pass it along. But other than that, things have been going good. And shoot, maybe I'll see you guys in Bothell. But good to hear you, Rebecca. Even if I've heard you on the radio, I really want to talk to her.

And sorry for the interruption there. I didn't hear you call out. Josh wanted to make sure he got in there, because he was answering the internet problems. And then he doubled, as you heard. And I'm working on half a battery, that's for sure. We got into California and down into Rupa Valley. The other night, I went to bed about midnight. Got up at, was it midnight? No, it was about 10 30, 11 30, something like that. But anyway, it was only six hours of sleep. Then I got up and did the net. And then waited for my student to get up. And we drove over to Costco there in, I think it was Ontario, yeah, Ontario. And we saw people coming out, because as Costco said, didn't open till 10. And we saw people coming out with stuff at about 9 15. And I went, well, heck, let's go. So I went over, and I walked inside, and did my card at the door. And I got put in my place. They said, oh, you're just a Gold Star member. You need to be an executive member if you want to come in at 9 o'clock. So apparently, executive membership gets you into Costco an hour early. So I went over there, and it was only like $24 pro-rated to get an executive membership to the end of the year, fiscal year for my membership. So I did that, and went in, and got our stuff. And then we hadn't gotten any messages about our load. So we walked over to Ontario Mills. That was a mistake. I was spending a few pennies over there, because I found stuff that my wife was interested in. Ended up getting her a Halloween stitch Build-A-Bear with a skeleton costume. And did that, and found a couple of other things on the stitch license plate holder, and at box lunch, and then a few other things. So long day walking around the mall. It was like 101, 102. And then by the time we was trying to get all this in before we go into the canyon here, I finally called them up and said, hey, we haven't gotten any information about our load. When's this trailer supposed to be ready? Is it supposed to be ready between noon and five? And they said, oh, here's your trailer number. And I'm like, well, shoot, how long have you guys had this? And they didn't know, because they only know that here's the trailer number. So we got our trailer, and we got up to Vegas last night, grabbed showers, because we were overdue. And now we're heading north, and I'm working on about six hours sleep last night, because I slept for about 3, 3 and 1 1 half hours on our way up to Vegas, and then slept for another hour and a half, two hours after we grabbed showers. But I'm here, and you can keep me on the list, but I'll probably lose signal here for about 20 minutes.

Good morning to everybody participating in the cowabunga net on the Dew Drop Inn. Yeah, for the market, I'm glad my name isn't Warren Bussett right now. Yeah, he made a couple of big gambles there. He thought he saw some good inns and got smashed. I don't think that that's going to go on. I think he's right. It just wasn't right enough. So he's going to have to sit on it. I know he's not happy about it. Let's see, what about today? I got pork chop dinner tonight at the lodge, the one close to me. The lodge close to me has produced there for something to do Saturday night for three weeks in a row now. Three weeks ago was the steak. Two weeks ago was the rib. And yeah, I'll go for pork chop and see how that is. Because this was an open week. Next week is the big barbecue in Tamarack. So I didn't have an open week this week trying to figure out what I was going to do. I have a grandson coming over. He's got a stereo he wants to put in this car he bought, which will work out good. I've got some speakers for him. And I'll see if he wants these extra set of earbuds that I ended up ordering. I knew I wanted to gift him to somebody. So we'll see if he wants them or not, because they won't connect to two devices at the same time. I did end up finding one, and they really are good. They work as good as my headphones. The only reason why it sounds as good, the only reason why I don't use them on Echo Link is because they don't have as good of transmit sound out. It's too low. I suppose I have four microphones in them for a little tiny thing like this. But they still don't sound as good. I checked everything out on the test server. And I'll just have to keep wearing the headphones with the boom mic if I want to keep sounding as good to everybody when I get on here.

You've had some pretty good Saturday night dinners of late and I'm actually prepping tomorrow's lunch to bring to my parents house. It's a zucchini casserole. We have entered the season of zucchini and so they're pretty cheap in the stores, locally grown. The running gag around here is kind of like the running gag on Bao Fangs that you better keep your car doors locked or you're going to wake up and go out in the car and have a seat full of zucchini because everybody in their gardens have way too much and they're trying to get rid of it. And I bought this nifty little device at the local kitchen supply store yesterday that basically dices it right up. I mean you just slice whatever you want diced and you and then you slide it on this thing and it just goes over these blades and boom you get these nice uniform diced whatever in this case zucchini. And just since the net started I've managed to dice six cups of zucchini. So won't be long this will be ready to go for the zucchini casserole. But thank you Ron and I'll have to look into the Warren Buffett snafu because you don't see that Warren Buffett fails that often so I want to check that out.

This is KJ5IRQ. And yeah, I don't think we have any plans today. My wife is not feeling well. She started feeling down yesterday. It's to be expected, you know, kids start school, they come home sick. Little man has the snuffles and now the wife's not feeling well. So I think we'll probably just veg out today. I cooked a big old pot of, we call it po'boy stew. It's basically hamburger soup. We haven't had it in a long time. And it hit the spot yesterday. So we had cornbread and hamburger soup. And I made it differently this time of course because of the way we've been eating. I used very good grass-fed beef. And then I strained it very well for a good 30 minutes after I cooked it just to make sure I got all the grease out. Grease is a killer for me. I guess you can't catch it. Oh, excuse me, I got the hiccups this morning. I probably could have called them banana out of the eight. But yeah, that's about it. I'm mowed back weekend so I don't need to do that this weekend. I really can't think of anything. I did find out that I can play Xbox games on my tablet yesterday. I'm not a super big gamer, but I've been playing Call of Duty Mobile for a while. And I'm bored with it. Believe it or not, I'm ranked pretty high. I can beat 97.2% of all ranked players. So I'm bored with it. So I'm looking forward to the new game. I'm really thinking about playing Oblivion. It's an Elder Scrolls game. It's the one that came out before Skyrim. But they remastered it and it looks phenomenal. So I am thinking about playing that. But my problem with Elder Scrolls is once I get into them, I don't get out. It sucks me in. That's why I don't play those games. But I have not played an Elder Scrolls game in a very long time. And I'm finding someone to be alive the next time the next one comes out. I mean, I'm sure I will be, but gosh, it's been 15 years, I think, since the last one came out. Oh, geez, let's see. I don't have any work to catch up on this weekend. And the weather is going to be humid and warm. So what are we doing outside things? So I don't know. I kind of used this time to figure out what I was doing and I didn't figure it out myself. So there you go. With that, I'll send it back. I'm just now, still, waking up. I woke up on the go, tried to get on the net. And I couldn't connect to do drop in. Do drop in too. I did get in on Michigan for a split second. That was after I texted the group and asked them if there was net issues. And then when I got off, I got back off of that and I tried to do drop in too again. And I was finally able to get in on do drop in too. So I don't know what the issue was. I forget it's my internet, but you never know. Okay, sending it back to KM1X.

And my wife just announced that we're going to take the really good coffee maker and obviously you have to figure out how to pack all my equipment with it. We are getting a house down there for a week and it's going to be pretty cool. So if Les feels under the weather or something like that she will have plenty of room to rack out and take care of herself and we won't be stuck in a hotel room. So I think it's going to be nice. And it's just a little bit more expensive than going to the local residence or something like that. And of course you can do a lot more in a house. So I'll be staging for that. We had some good news this morning. Lizzie, one of our cats, came back from her latest walkabout. She was gone for two days and she wandered in this morning. Which was very good. You know what I'm mulling over and I'd be interested in anybody's input in this. Intel has given the US government 10% of its shares. And I'm reading through the various articles on it and I'm trying to figure out why the heck would they do that. Intel got caught behind the eight ball and got buried by Nvidia and other companies like that. They were just too slow to adopt. So I don't quite know what's the point of that. It's a non-voting position. So they won't have any control over the company. So I just don't get that. Anyway, back to you.

But I suppose it's as goes Intel so goes the US government so they're gonna probably want to do whatever is necessary to make Intel profitable. So we shall see how all of that works out. And make sure if you go into Portsmouth that you stop at the liquor store and maybe get a bottle of chartreuse or some absinthe so that this winter you will be well stocked up and you'll be ready for whatever mother nature hands you.

Although we've had what I consider a light winter, a light summer, I don't know what day it is, where normally it gets to be, we'll have some 115-18 degree days here in Ranch Cucamonga, but only 100 or so probably for today. You can also mark me down as disappointed. I can't seem to stop talking about my diet, but yeah, today's my second full week of the diet. I lost about 4.5 pounds the first week and 1.5 of a pound the second week. That's the disappointment. When eating or trying to eat 800 calories a day, and one gentleman was nice enough to point out that was equal to 4 shots of carrot or celery, take your choice, on a daily basis.

You shouldn't be disappointed too much because I think you got some good days ahead if you keep it up. Because I think they say there's a lot of water weight and stuff that you lose at the beginning and then your body recovers and now you're actually going to start burning fat fat. So that's good.

But it's kind of confusing because I am in Colorado, my wife is in Cleveland, Ohio, buying a house. She bought it yesterday and now she's going to fly back and I'm going to pick her up at the airport today and then I'll find out what she bought. I'm pretty sure we were out for a walk, we were back there, went there on the train last month and she said, hun, I think we should buy that house. So we, well, we bought the house. Anyway, it's dangerous going on a walk sometimes. Anyway, so we're going to move to Cleveland, Ohio. I downsized all my equipment. I must have had 10 different radios that got rid of all but two of them and I gave them away because I didn't have time to try to do sales. I gave them away to an organization that's a 501C3. Anyway, long story short, I'm downsized, I'm packing bags, so that's what I'm doing, my plans, pack bags. And I've been giving a lot of stuff away, downsized the house, we're moving out of here. We're going to drive both cars back in two weeks. Anyway, that's what's going on here. Breakfast number two or three, probably number two I'll call it, I'm going to walk over to Panera's. Even though my wife's not here, I still feel like I'm going to do my pattern of a Saturday morning walk to Panera's and I'm going to get a chocolate chip cookie and a cup of tea.

I don't even think it was a good sleep. I don't know why this keeps happening. I keep checking my medications. There's something going on there, but I can't find anything. I've asked the doctor. So again, just relaxing, watching some of the riots. Well, not riots, protests in Washington, DC. Interesting to see that these guardsmen, national guards, they're needing protection from police. So you'll see a bunch of people holding up signs about Trump and Free DC and stuff like that. And the police will be the first barrier and these poor guardsmen are behind the barrier. They're being protected, which I know. Located in Shelton, Washington. I do that. That's not what military is supposed to be used for. And I sure aren't getting very much respect right now. That kind of bothers me. But I understand it. Anyhow, I'll reset real quick. My voice is still screwed up. I don't know why. It's been like this for like three days now.

So we're gonna just kind of plan things around him a little bit. Kind of cool. So we were thinking about swimming, but it's not gonna get warm until much, much later this afternoon. It's only like 65 degrees here. So we'll figure something out. But this morning is gonna be our race to go to the grocery store.

He's on a lot of supplements. He's an old man. He's going to be 18 next month, which is coming right up. And his food now is like, I have to make it a little soupy. He's taking his water intake right through his meals. And anyway, that is on the plate right now and he's eating. So that's good. And he's actually doing real good. The groomer had him last Saturday and she's like, wow. His arthritis was deforming his legs and the joints were like folded over kind of. And he's standing right up now and he can walk much better. And the groomer really noticed it and I can see it. But it's coming at a cost. The set of shots that he's on, they were twice a week for a month. Now they're once a week for a month and then it goes down to just once a month. And then we're switching his dog food because he's an old man and we need something that's more kidney friendly.

It might take, from what I understand, it could take up to a year to get me back to normal. And the only real, I have a little bit of discomfort there. I've been working on ladders and lifts and I'm up on my feet. I'm on my feet for eight hours at work and I have to drive my commutes over an hour each way. I can feel a little bit in the hip, but not bad. But just trying to get up, if I'm on my knees and I want to stand up, it's a chore. That's going to take a while. But maybe once my knees get better, my right knee actually is under treatment right now. I did have my knees inspected by the doctor before I went off of disability. And he said, hey, your knees aren't perfect, but you have arthritis in them, but nothing where it needs a replacement. It's just going to need some maintenance. So he gave me a shot in my right knee of cortisone and I called him up. Or actually when he gave me the shot of cortisone, I know that it doesn't last that long. So he went through my insurance for a pre-approval on getting gel shots. So yesterday I got, was it yesterday? No two days ago, Thursday I got shot two of a three shot series on my knee. And we talked on Thursday and I said, well, what about my other knee? He goes, well, if you have the problem, you know, let me know and I'll just pre-approve the shots because I don't want to get another. I really don't like the cortisone. It's not good for you. It eats up your whatevers. So anyways, that's what's going on. I'm doing really good at work. We were, let me reset one more time. My project manager said, I need you to run two conduits out of a wall of a garage, go across like 20 feet, cut through a 15 foot sidewalk and trench in there and then continue the trench to where it needs to be. And they had some construction workers closer to where we're putting our sign, we're putting a sign that has the spots available and they opened it all up. So I said, you know, we really need to move it over here and we'll save a lot of work. And he's like, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Well, I guess this is a terrible phrase, but their sufferers, you know, they arrange rides, they make it as easy as possible, they help in any way they can, they break their backs to help. I wish I could give them some money. So I would already be willing to do that without the stipulation. I guess you could see my choice. It may be something like that. Anything else, I don't know, right? Because they're always asking for money and at some point, there's still kind of a roadblock in the brick wall. I mean, because they're not going to solve cancer, the United Way is always going to need money and they're always going to have like some little kid that's the top star to help them beg for this money.

I think it might be the Wounded Warrior Project, but there's a charity out there that provides scholarships for kids of service members who are either extremely wounded or died in action. They make sure that their kids get scholarships and are able to go to college and get the education because their parent either lost their life or got injured enough in the line of service that they're unable to really provide that for them because they've got their own needs. So I always felt gone towards that particular one. There was that one and there was another one that provided homes for wounded. This is a home for service members who were severely injured in the line of duty. So I'm not sure if they're the same organization or if there were two different ones, but first it would either be the ones to provide most of the challenges for the children and or to provide homes for service members that can't afford to because they were severely injured in the line of duty. So that would provide specialty homes because they've got to have homes because they were injured either that were wheelchair accessible or whatever accessible in order to be able to be used by these service members.

Now the way it is, you didn't mention if it was money that I raised how I got that million dollars or just somebody clapped it down on a desk and said take it and make a donation. Well, if it was money that I had raised, I might look at the Moose Lodge because I could donate to their Moose Haven and Moose Heart Charities which that whole lodge revolves around those two charities and I'd end up in the hierarchy there. Well, that's one of the requirements, you know, that you've been able to raise so much money. So I'd actually be able to, you know, benefit from that and if I wanted to go to their meetings every month too. You know, they have different levels, you could be a pioneer or whatever and they have like a treasurer, vice president and stuff but you don't just get that position because you're elected, you have to qualify and have raised so much money up until that point.

They didn't make you do it. But you'd go home really, really, really late or possibly not even that day if you didn't. Again, it wasn't forced upon you. It was highly encouraged. But yeah, I did like Rounded Warriors or something like that to be completely honest. Some I probably haven't mentioned on here. I don't remember if I have or not. I have a little brother. Yeah, a year and a half younger than me actually. And he served also. He had a rough time of it. Gosh, 10 years or so ago. He was still in the military. And he'd come home for a little bit and decided to put a 9 mil hollow point in his mouth and pull the trigger. He did. Fortunately, all our best friend that we grew up with thought it was too late for him to be driving home, followed him out to the truck. And just as soon as my little brother decided to take his own life, Mark opened the truck door and said, hey, it's too late for you to be driving home. And it disturbed him. And the hollow point came out of his cheek rather than hitting anything solid, which is the only thing that's in his life. To me, 22 spirits as a day is not just a saying, it's personal. So that's where my money would go. I made that a very dark and serious thing. I didn't mean to, but I just wanted to explain why I would give them my money.

But that's just, you know, what I've read and I'm not thoroughly read on the subject, but I'm pretty sure that's acted. Okay. Oh, Kevin, you had mentioned last time, last, I think it was two weeks ago now, that you were working on some AI stuff. And I would like to hear more about that either online or offline, it doesn't matter. But I would like to hear more about that because I'm working on a few things, an LLM and a couple of bots. I built a few bots already actually. So I just wanted to see what you're working on. And maybe you can tell us or maybe you can email me. Anyway, have a good next round. I'm a grandson and my wife are awake. I'm not playing with you. Hang on one second, buddy. Grandson, I'm hanging on to him today because Grammy is sick. So he's gonna be with me. So I'm gonna jump off here. I'll be in here for the day, of course, but I'm gonna jump off here and get him some bacon going. He's wanting some bacon for breakfast.

No matter what condition you're in, they take you out and they build tents on top of skids. That's how they get them off the streets and then they start getting their homes and stuff like that.

They're being run by the people of charities but the city is also involved in that, trying to clean up our streets and try to help these people get homes.

I would give it to them with a stipulation that they put all their money in the bank, in a savings account. And I would say, yeah, you can take half of it and put it in the savings account, but you got to invest the other half.

And because that is very close to the edge of, you know, when you have enough money that you really don't have to worry about it anymore. And you can make more money every year. When you get past a million dollars, two million dollars is better. Ten is even better than that. But once you get to a million, you can live off of that and still make more money.

Not that their quality of life was anything great but you know it sounds like they are able to keep people around a little bit longer and I always thought that a good, speaking of cancer, a good Jack Ryan of you know Tom Clancy fame, a good plot for a Jack Ryan novel would be that he discovers that there is a cure for cancer but it's trying to be kept under wraps and he's trying to get to the bottom of it and get it exposed and all of this and of course at the end he's successful but you know all of the shenanigans that are going on that would go on and to try to keep this the kind of thing under wraps and you know the people behind it that are you know evil bastards and the crap that they're doing so I thought that would make for an interesting Clancy novel.

It's just taken a while to get to the end of the list. Lots of stations here this morning. Okay, so I watched this video. Hypothetical scenario. A kid is in high school and having his lunch stolen every single day by this bully. Okay. So the kid decides, I'm going to retaliate. I'm going to put some laxatives in a cupcake and when this ass steals my lunch, if he does, he's going to eat a cupcake full of laxatives and he's going to crap himself in school. Okay. The parents of this kid freak out, claiming that the kid who made the cupcakes poisoned their son. Okay. Now keep in mind, the kid didn't give this cupcake or intentionally feed this cupcake to this bully. He ended up eating it because he stole the kid's lunch, ate the lunch, ate the cupcake, cracked himself in school. Is the kid who made the cupcake responsible because he made that cupcake? Keep in mind, laxatives I don't think are poison. You know, they're a crapping agent. So my opinion is, had that kid never stolen lunches in the first place, there wouldn't be an issue. And even on the day of the cupcake incident, the cupcake was not fed to this guy or anything. It was stolen and eaten. So who's at fault here? The bully for being an ass stealing kids' lunches or the kid who put the laxatives in the cupcake and literally made him crap all over the classroom? I know it's an interesting one, but I just came across it online and it was like an actual situation this guy I follow went through with his own kid.

You know I don't think that in the court of public opinion that would fly very far and I'd love to see how this is playing out I don't know if you saw it online if you know how it's you know are people supporting the bully or are people supporting the victim, laxative boy but it's a great scenario I'd love to hear what people have to say so yeah feel free to chime in on this. And I'm looking at the clock here and I'm looking at the number of people still on the list and I think believe it or not we should start the 73 round because there's a good crowd we didn't lose many people today.

I hate bullies so I would put thumbtacks in the cupcakes. Totally entrap the bastards. I hate big overgrown lummoxes that hang around change rooms and hallways making trouble. Back in the days, I mean I had to use a lot of restraint not to even wild out like that on a Manny DeCassero because he was one forced to reckon with a W Ross and it's one time I thought about it. I'm highlighting the one guy just because I kind of knew I had a lot more to lose. He's on the Twinkie Squad. I'm not. So if he does anything reckless, he gets to go home but if I hurt somebody or shank somebody, I was in the knives at that time but I wasn't stupid either. I thought things out. I never really used those things. So I thought more than anything and I was like I have too much to lose. He doesn't. So and then it's just how we ended up now. I'm glad I kind of know that and decided that. I didn't do anything. I could have told my brother to wild out. Let him rot in jail but it's not worth it. I mean nowadays he's like at the one of those like whatever they are places where they take care of you if you can't take care of yourself kind of deals and I'm chilling. I'm paid. Probably not paid in the way people might have thought in those days because I had aspirations of DJing and other things like that that I never really followed through on but I'm cool and I wasn't on the Twinkie Squad. So I'm glad I thought it over and thought nah man you can't shank this guy because you do that. He wins, you lose. He'll get to go home for the night. You'll be still remanded and all this stuff so I had to think about that at 14 and 17. So but yeah put needles in the cupcake. There's a good kid. Alright take care. I'll let you get to your heartbreaks. They're not that tough right now. You got it laid out and I'll listen along.

Darrell is in his 40s. I think there's a statute of limitations on that. So I don't know if anything I could offer him would help. Was Darrell the kid or was he the bully? That's what I want to know. No, I mean, anytime things like that happen, I mean, I'm definitely with the kid that put the laxatives in the thing. That's going to happen sometimes at work. Somebody will be stealing lunches, so somebody will do something like that. Nowadays you really got to be careful because if you end up giving them laxatives or something like that and they end up injuring themselves, you could really get in trouble for doing something like that because you don't know. You know, in a medical profession, you don't know what you're going to do. You don't know if that other kid's got a condition that feeding them laxatives or something like that could have some serious effects. So I would really be wary of doing something like that, but I'm definitely with the kid that put the laxatives in the cupcakes. Good for him. But that was that. I ended up stopping at a rest area because I was losing air. I'm like, why am I losing air? So I had to pull over and check it out. It turned out that one of the pepcoc valves on the secondary tank of the air system was loose and the air was coming out of it. So once I tightened that up, I went and used the restroom, which took a minute because they were cleaning the regular restrooms, so I had to use the two family restrooms that were available. It all filled back up, and my air pressure is back to where it should be. So I'm going to stop here in Cedar City at the Love's and grab a quick bite for lunch and get a refill on my soda. But I hope everybody has a good day. Catch everybody out here tomorrow. I don't know who's going to be doing the net, but somebody will, or it will just be a rag chew. So be there, be square.

It depends a lot on certain factors involving that situation. It sounds like the kid that put the laxative in the cupcake is going to get away scot-free on this. Why it depends would be if there was so much laxative in the cupcake, the kid suffered great harm. And I don't think that's the case. And I'm sure that the laws concerning booby traps wouldn't apply if it even did a little bit. I doubt that they would enforce that and say it's a civil matter. And it's probably up to the school to handle someone who's stealing somebody's lunch or dessert. So yeah, it depends. But in Daryl's specific case, I don't think it would have been worth it to claim harm and try to get some kind of remedy from that harm because it wasn't enough harm. What happened to the kid? You know, he had to go sit on the toilet, had to leave class a few times. I don't know. I don't think so. All right. Maybe have a nice weekend. And I hope that I'll see everybody here tomorrow.

And people start running out of the room, and someone slips and hits their head and now has brain damage, and they're in the hospital. So the parents of the brain damaged kid want to go after someone. Who then is liable? Is it the kid that put the laxatives in, or is it the bully? This will complicate it even more.

Okay, I'm on the side of the parents and the kid just saying that out right. I mean, the bully got us just desserts. But I thought it would be fun to have AI act as a judge. So I prompted a chat CPT. I said, I want you to act as a judge. That is your role. A mom and a dad put laxative inside of a cupcake for their son because the son's bully kept taking his lunch. The little boy took the cupcake to school but did not give it to the bully. The bully stole it out of the kid's lunch, ate it and crapped his pants. Who's liable? Alright, so Judge Chat CPT says the facts that are presented are the parents knowingly put laxatives inside of a cupcake. The child didn't offer it to the bully and the bully did take it without consent, ate it and then suffered the consequences. So when you look at the legal angles and it spells it all out, the likely outcome is the parents would be held liable. It actually says the bully's an ass but the parents crossed the line. They would likely be found liable for the consequences of the cupcake trap because they intentionally created harmful food. Even though the bully stole it, it was reasonably foreseeable and courts do not allow for private citizens to dose others with drugs. Now the bully might bear some fault for stealing if it went to a civil court. Comparative fault might reduce damages to 50-50 depending on the jurisdiction. Now the original kid that was being bullied, he would be in the clear. According to Chat CPT, take that for what you will. That's a fun ending to this net.

I'm retired from the city of Portland. I was in working sewers for a while. We used to use this, I would say, orange powder to test sewer lines. Like if somebody had a rat, got into their sewer or something. And so we would put this orange powder in there and it would turn green and then we would flush the toilet or whatever and see if it made it to the main line. Anyway, I'm not exactly the story but supposedly somebody put some of this orange powder in somebody's lunch. And they didn't eat it but they took her home and I just, the daughter ate it. And she started peeing green and just really freaked out. We were told it wasn't supposed to be toxic. There was kind of a question about that. One of the guys used to dump it in the fountains down in Portland on St. Patty's Day and turn the fountains green. I'm sure that's how they do it. I think they maybe do that in Chicago.

I got bits and pieces and I'm in the 80s. I was in this company and we all brought our lunch and we had one refrigerator. And um, we figured it was the new guy that was stealing our lunch. But he was not only stealing our lunch, he was making sure that he knew that he, that that he was doing it. Like if it was a sandwich, he'll take two bites off of it and put it back. So we knew that someone was doing it. And um, or if we, if it was something in a Tupperware, he would leave a big chunk off and then put it back. So we knew something was going on and we went to management. We said, listen, someone's doing this, we believe it's that. And management, they'll say that. They says, oh, um, keep your lunch at your desk. Blaza blaza, you know. So um, some food cannot be kept in the desk because at the desk you cannot eat or anything. So we were like, okay, so what, I don't know. Someone came up with putting elastidus in the food we brought in. I didn't do it. I didn't bring any food in. Um, I just, you know, didn't have the time for that at that time. But they decided to put stuff in their food and the next day they did it. But the following day, the guy did still come in but he was up and going to the bathroom a lot. And it was the guy that they thought then did it. And um, nothing happened to him but management made an um, a meeting with everyone, like a five minute meeting. Oh, we understand what you did. We want the person, and they made it very general. We want to make sure that the person that's doing it immediately stopped and whoever did that with the food or whoever co-hosted to do that, not to do it again. So you know, that's the story. But that person stopped doing whatever he was doing and that was that. And um, this is K and 4 LBS.

I'm definitely on the side of the bullied kid. I was a bullied kid. I got bullied a lot and I can't abide a bully at all. I will not suffer them to continue. I'm definitely on his side. But don't do the crime if you don't. He might get punished for it. You have to understand that when you do something like that, you might get punished for it. I would say do it anyway. Stop the behavior. The other thing that first struck me is what kind of laxative was that? Is it like the stuff that Lewis and Clark took when they went out on their giant trip across the United States? They carried, I think it was mercury salts or something like that because if something went wrong with them on the trail, these would empty them out completely. Stem to stern. But if you're putting X-lax in it or something like that, it's going to take hours and hours and hours to take any kind of effect and it won't be explosive. So I'd love to know what the laxative was.

I'll tell you how it came out in the end. The kid who stole the cupcake was suspended. The kid who put the laxative in the cupcake was not. He originally was, but then it was removed from his record. And it was removed from his education record, and that was that. So, at the end of the day, school administration came to the decision that the kid was not forced to eat the cupcake. It wasn't handed to him. It wasn't given to him. It wasn't suggested that he eat it in any way, shape, or form. He was bullying kids, stealing lunches. Kids that had their lunches stolen were not able to eat as a result. And he was just seen to be a little alphahotel and was suspended for such actions. After all, I mean, if I was a kid, maybe I've got bowel troubles. And maybe I put the laxatives in there to make sure I had a crap after lunch. And someone stole my medication and my cupcake and my lunch and ate it without provocation. 7-3, everybody. Great net, Kevin. Everybody have a great day.

This is Roy, KD7WA. Last day in Nasto and we're heading out tomorrow and heading back to the 100 degree heat. So anyhow, not looking forward to that. Let's see, I've got a couple of broken bones. When I was in the Navy I dropped a 20 pound rod that was a mount for a hedgehog mount. We were doing inventory and it just pulverized the big toe. That hurt. I went up there and I stuck a needle in the top of that big swollen up thing and relieved the pressure. I put a piece of metal over the end of it and told me to keep it on there for six weeks and take it off and you're done. And then we were over here at Neskon a few years ago and the grass was wet and I slipped and fell across a picnic table and broke a rib. And I knew it was broke because I could push it in and out. So I stayed there, I spent the night here at the RV in pain all night and then we went into Lincoln City and they confirmed I had a broken rib. So anyhow, I never realized how many curves there were between Neskon and Salem because I had to drive the motor home back with that broken rib and man did that hurt. Yeah, we've been having a blast over here. I hate to leave. Joe, we need to get a drone over here to Pacific City and take some pictures of those dory boats. They get up to about 40 miles an hour through the waves so they can slide up on the sand far enough to get them on their trailers. It's quite a feat to watch that. It's more fun watching them come in and just trying to get out through the waves. But anyhow, we had a great time here. Not looking forward to going back to Salem, especially how we live a block from the fair and the fair is going on. So traffic, we're going to have a hard time just trying to get home.

Real quick, Laurie kicked my toe several months ago and the nail quit growing and it turns different colors to this day and I've been soaking it and expecting the nail to fall off but it hasn't happened yet so I'm sure it's going to do that or blow up one of these days. Anyway, thanks, Roy. Always good to hear you there and have a safe drive for sure. Much more stress when you're driving a motor home as opposed to a car. So there you go.

And right now the club is in the process of moving from old school building. We had a great big nice room down there. You know like a classroom and three or four stations all set up all with every kind of radio and what have you and all kind of antennas up on a roof. And now all that's got to be moved. So we started to move and we're supposed to be out of the school by end of September. So a lot of work. Patch panels and all the antennas got to come down off the tower.

But there was a time back in 89 now, here's another one. I was walking home from band practice one time. I was in this wannabe thrash band and we were playing a lot of mosh pit music and stuff to get, stuff these guys wrote, songs and stuff. I was walking home one evening and I was going to stop in the Dairy Queen and get me a hamburger. My dad made me this cane that looked like a great big Thomas Hawk or sword or something like that. I was walking along Stevens and I slammed into a signpost that unbeknownst to me, a light was hitting me right in the face and I didn't see that signpost come up and CRACK. My left eyebrow got the brunt of it man. And I was bleeding like a stuck hog walking in the Dairy Queen. And everybody and his dog was just like vultures on a kill man. It was just like vultures all over a kill. I mean they were just walking around me making sure I was okay.

I don't think I ever actually broke a bone. When I was in high school, probably my senior year, I caught a football on the end of my thumb, and I sprained it pretty bad. I was bad because I still remember it after, you know, 60 years or whatever. When I started with Coca-Cola, I got laid off in the wintertime the first year. So I took my son Troy up to Mt. Hood and rented an inner tube, and we were sliding down the hill. Oh, I put him on my lap. I think he's only about five years old. I put him on my lap, slid down the hill, hit a final little bump, and stopped. Well, this big guy behind us didn't stop, and I put up my foot to block the fall or the hit and hit my big toe, and boy, the next day I couldn't even walk. And since I was laid off from my job, I had to go into the unemployment office, and I couldn't have worked if they had a job for me. But anyway, that toe bothered me the rest of my life, and every time I get out of my truck, you know, I step down, it hurt me. But, you see, spraying is worse than a break, I guess. It seemed like that was for me for years. Anyway, after I retired, I finally got so bad I went to the doctor, and he said, well, I can put a pin in it, and you'll be on crutches for six months, or this new thing, he put a ball. I don't know if people old enough probably know what a jawbreaker is. But he put a ball in there, and now my big toe swivels on that ball, and the pain pretty much went away, so that part's okay. And I had back surgery here about a year ago, and they put two pins in my back and a titanium wedge, and that didn't go too well. Then they put shots in my back. That didn't work. I had to wait six months. They put shots in my back a second time. That did work, and I still have some lower pain there, but at least it's not the hard pain. Anyway, that's my two cents. I'm sticking with it too.

The pain pills do nothing. Absolutely nothing. So they gave me morphine in the hospital when I crushed my vertebrae and absolutely nothing. It doesn't really matter so I just feel the pain.

A few over the years, a lot of which were self-inflicted, accidentally of course, not like breaking myself up intentionally or anything, but back in 2006 I was hit by an SUV while I was walking and flew about 15 feet in the air. I went over the top of the truck, landed behind it by about another 15 feet and struck the pavement and don't remember anything except firefighters and EMTs working over me and little flashes of being in the ambulance and then waking up in the hospital a couple days later and ended up being laid up for nine months after the fact. So I had a disc get shattered in the spine. I had to go through a procedure where it went down through the spine, I think through my back somewhere and extracted the broken pieces and then I had to get a spacer and a fusion gun on my spine. That's in 2006, so that's way long ago. Another time when I was a kid, me and a friend of mine were rock climbing. We had the brilliant idea to make a homemade grappling hook and so it was all good. He threw the hook up the mountain, I threw the hook up the mountain, gave it a couple of yanks to make sure it was in tight and I started coming up the side of it and the rock that the hook was hooked into broke loose and came down and crushed both of my hands. I got all of the joints in my fingers, a couple of breaks in all of my fingers. I had my hands for bandage stuff for about a month and a half or so I suppose and that wasn't fun.

I just left it alone and let it shrink back down on its own, and it's fine. Other than the fact now I bend it sometimes and you can hear it clicking in there. That might lead to some problems down the road. Other than that, I pulled my zipper up too quick once. Just kidding. I hope you're doing well, Joe, and I hope everybody out here is doing good. I'm actually out here on a Saturday. It doesn't happen too often. You know, usually I sleep way in on the weekends, and I'm a lazy bugger on the weekends, but today I made the cowabunga mat, surprisingly enough. Tomorrow I don't say I'll be so lucky.

I didn't expect you to be out here running in that. Hello, Daryl. Daryl, you've been very hurt. And I think everybody gets to share, but I don't want to scare you, Joe. Most of my life, my breaks, I went through my whole life really without, maybe just a few fingers and toes. But you know, then I started cycling and fell off one time and broke my hip in three places. The front, the side, and the back. Those were hairline fractures, but they were still painful. And then a year or two later, I slipped on my bike and I broke my femur and my hip at the same time. So they put some pretty little rods right through the bone. The bone completely, almost came out the skin. But the hip slid out too, I guess just the pressure of it. So they put a rod in it, rod it through the leg, and then I had a knee replacement on the same leg, so I'm all metal on one side. And I hate it too. And if I was younger, they would remove it, I think. One doctor said, I'll take it out if you want me to. And I said, no, no, no, just leave it alone. And so, yeah, and I have a vertebrae on my back that's pushed in. I really need to have surgery on, but I'm just not doing it right now. I'm just going to wait. If you want good results, wait until you can't walk or can't stand. I've been told that before too. But anyway, thank you for taking the net today for whatever reason. Hello to everybody, and if you're not busy, come and join us on the Little Box Lounge this evening at 7 Eastern on 11CATS, 11CATS.org.

Around 2000 I was the second car in a rear-ender but there was a van that hit my trailer hitch on my truck which the trailer hitch is connected directly to the frame which goes right up to the, so that impact goes right into you. And then in 2002 I was in a head-on collision. Somebody crossed the line, hit me when I was in my truck which is why I will drive a big truck to this day. I'll just drive less if I have it. I only get 13 miles of a gallon but it's worth it because I would have died if I was in a small car on that one. And of course my bicycle crashed in 2020. I crushed three vertebrae, I had a severe concussion and broke my front teeth out. We're still moving and that's what counts and that's just the highlights. Those are probably just the more serious ones. Anyway let's see if Joe's back.

I am an electrician, I work in New York City, I was in the basement of a building, actually working for a big record store that we were doing a remodeling for. I was working alone down in the basement. Why do we have an electrical distribution panel 8 or 10 feet up in the air? I don't know why but you have to realize it's an old place. This building might have even been built before, well it's the beginning of when they were installing electricity in New York City. I'm working on this 8 foot ladder trying to find a circuit and I had my left hand, I was moving wires around in this panel and like an idiot I had my right hand wrapped in a water pipe, perfect situation for a grounding situation and I get belted right across two of my arms, both of my arms are on an 8 foot ladder. Luckily it grabbed me or I'd still probably be hanging there and then it threw me and I came flying off the ladder. Luckily off an 8 foot ladder, landed on my feet and I thought I was okay and I got my arms up in the air and I couldn't, I couldn't rig my arms up in the air.

KC7THD, I go on ITEC here. Yeah, Joyce, you sure ruined the trip. That was our last drone flight. I never did fly the drone again, really. That second day, I had I think four missions or something to fly along the cliffs up there way outside the city limits. They were all planned missions out about a mile from where I was. This was a long time ago now. But anyway, we had flown the day before I think three missions and I had taken another four missions all planned, batteries all charged. She was just coming out of the motel, going to head for breakfast and tears flat right in front of me. Right in front of me. I was sitting there with the car idling, ready to go, but I was all belded in. There was no way I could catch her. It was all in slow motion in my mind and she was in terrible pain. I said, I'm going to transport you to the hospital no matter where you're at. I had that I think left over from my really active jeeping days. Believe it or not, it was to expire the next day. I mean, it's a one year sort of thing. It was to expire the next day. I happened to see that in my wallet and reactivated that and called up. They covered all the nurses and the ambulances, everything all the way from Sedona clear over to South Phoenix at the hospital down there. We didn't pay a penny. I don't know what that would have cost, probably $20,000 or so. Anyway, that was well spent. I've still got that NRA, EA Plus, even though I don't think I'll ever use it. But anyway, that's what's going on here, gang. Oh, yeah, I've got a couple of broken bones. I was climbing in the white tanks and jumping over boulders up there in West Phoenix way outside in the boonies called the White Tank Mountains. Jumping from one boulder to the other in a huge boulder field out there trying to get to some cliffs I wanted to climb. A boulder about the size of my jeep, balanced, and it moved underneath me a little bit. I was on the thing and I was using it for a springboard to the next boulder and it moved. Holy mackerel, it almost fell down in a five foot crack between both of the boulders. I slammed my wrist into another rock and kept me from falling down in there and getting maybe crushed by the boulders. So anyway, it broke my wrist. I had a five speed jeep manual transmission. I had to drive it like 50 miles back home with a broken wrist. Anyway, back in that control.

So I've got one foot out the door. Get over there and get to work with them. But in terms of broken bones, the only one that I ever had is we had this thing as kids where your buddy would lay on his back. You'd sit on his feet that were up in the air. And then he would springboard you up into the air and hopefully you would land on an inner tube that was not too far away. And he was a pretty big fella. So I missed the inner tube and had my hands behind me and ended up breaking a wrist. And what's interesting about that is my brother broke his wrist exactly the same way. So I guess the two brothers don't learn things too quickly. But anyway, in terms of other injuries, I have really been blessed. I've come right up to the edge of what could have been something very, very serious and just missed it. And some of those I think back are kind of chilling.

And I don't know about broken bones, but if I tell a story to younger people, they don't understand because it's not made anymore. So in 1978, I had just turned, it was March and my birthday's in January, I just turned 22 and I was dry. Somehow I ended up in the Vallejo Highway in my MG Midget convertible. I don't know if you remember the British MG Midget, they're sports cars, two-seaters, I had no roll bar and they had no seat belts. And I hit a raised pavement, seven signs, flipped end over end several times and struck a truck. And apparently I was on the Vallejo Highway too. And apparently I flew out right before it went over because somebody was waiting for me to pass and they saw it all. And luckily I did, I had no seat belt. And I ended up with major head, face and both legs injuries, but I'm not sure about broken bones. I guess I fractured the bones in my head and face, but they removed what they did back in 1978. They didn't know what the meniscus did and I had major injuries and I ended up with surgery for the muscle limbs that were torn and I had casts on both legs when I sort of woke up. I was not really there for a while. But they removed the meniscus. I didn't know what it did in 1978. In 1979 they decided, oops, we need to keep the meniscus, but they removed my meniscus. That's why I have replaced knees. And it was a life-changing event because I was working at, and I had been at the bar with my boss because I was working a good paying job at the state hospital in the back units and then it was difficult for me to work there because I had bad legs. It was a life-changing event. And in good ways too. I mean a lot of good ways too. But it's been a struggle because of my legs over the years. And that's pretty much it. You know we have a big fire here. It's not near me. I'm totally safe. I live in Napa, but it's in Calistoga. And it has blown, it started Thursday and it's 3,000 acres. And it's sort of more in the rural areas, but there is some threat to the Calistoga up there. So it's been a, and they've been fighting it for, again they've had helicopters and it's just been horrific. So it just exploded. Another one, you know we had a big one here in Napa and now it's, but anyway. So anyway I hope everybody is fine and I'm glad I could tell your story. And I know you guys know the British MG Midgets, some of you. So anyway, take care. Back to you.

Well yes, it's been a minute, so many nets, so few hours in the day, hi hi, as I walked slowly through the neighborhood on my walk. I'm getting several miles in there Joe. Yeah, my sports career was, well tennis, you know, running, and I guess I learned early on even in a small town, bikes were not going to be it. I didn't get an injury, but you know those cars, trucks would just zoom by you. So kind of crazy and too close for comfort and sometimes you had nowhere to go. So I decided my own two feet was best, at least you could step off the side. I've run up and down some mountains and different things and bloodied my feet because of that, but I was younger so I never tripped, thank goodness. All those years of running. But anyway, the toes, yup, both big toes from the dogs getting into it in the middle of the night, then had to fly off to bed to separate them and so both toes are banged up there and the nails and all that. That seemed pretty common injury on here. And yes, I wanted MG Midget as well when I was running. All the guys that were running in their 40s going through a midlife crisis had one. I was only 24 or 5 so I had not hit that point yet in my life. So I didn't get one. Maybe I'm thankful for that because I am accident prone. I walk slowly down the streets Joe. Good to hear everybody and I'll try to get on a little more often as I can when I'm walking here Joe. We do appreciate you doing the net. We've had Elvis Death Day here so that's been celebrated with the vigil and all that at Graceland. So, back to normal here in Memphis for the most part. And it's nice and cool here today.

KK7 speed, DA16, you know I said, source of delay there, Joe. I had to have a sneeze, so I didn't want to do it on the air. Ha! Ah, weather right now. 12 degrees, high of 26, 53, and 79. Mainly sunny. We're gonna get high temperatures this week. Most of them close to 30. Wow. Anyway, you know what? Everybody looked at me when I was doing my prime growing periods, when I was ever in a cast, or lately it's been an air boot. Well, the air boot's off pretty much. I put it on occasionally, but not right now. Excuse me. I had to have breakfast earlier and say bye to the wife because she went out and had breakfast with a friend of hers. But, um, I'm digressing here. Get on topic. Um, yeah, I have never broken any bones in my body. I had a baby toe dislocated in grade 12, playing soccer in gym class. It popped right out. And when everybody was accusing me of faking it, I got off to the side of the field and took off my shoe, my sock, and I said, and there's a hollow spot right in my baby toe. And one of the guys on the team kicked the ball so hard that it popped my toe out. Anyway, I said, does that look like I'm faking it? So anyway, Mr. Peterson sent me to the office, called my mom, get me to the hospital, and they took the x-rays and it freaked out the radiologist because I should have warned him about my strange configurations because I've had surgeries up until I was 16 years old, especially when I had a trichloroethagesis done and other stuff. Anyway, I've got to blow my nose, so I'm going to hurry up here. But no, all mine have been due to osteoarthritis and born in a club feet. Twenty in total. So that's my story, and I'm sticking to it. People say you should write a book. Yeah, I've been contemplating it. Well, it depends if I go back to work or not. Anyway, take care, everybody. 73, stay cool if you're in the hot.

So KK7Z this is WAA2B and I've had a broken bone or two. The first one I can remember was when I was in junior high school and I walked, it was close enough I walked from the junior high school to my home and in between was a railroad yard. And I don't know if you've ever seen them but they had these big ramps that sat up tall and had a slope on ETN for trucks and you'd pull a boxcar up to them and the boxcar, the bottom of the boxcar is leveled on top of the ramp. So you didn't have to push it, you know, just run things in and out like you're on a level street. And I was coming home from school and I walked across that ramp and flipped. And I flipped, somehow I flipped over and I fell down on my face and my right hand and wrist slammed into the deck. Well guess what? I broke some bones in my wrist. And then, and that was it for a while. The next bone I broke, I still live with kind of. When I was in college I co-oped and I worked in the lab with the local electric power company. And we were on a trip to, I'd moved from crew to crew and I was on a crew that took care of substations. And we were going to a substation and we were going to do some cleaning and we had a big drum of water in the back of the truck. Well the truck didn't have room for everybody and so I was standing in the back of the truck next to the drum and they hit a bump and the drum clapped onto my right foot, just the toes. So I have broken toes, they're like they were when it happened, they couldn't do anything except wrap them up. And then the next big one was I was an adult and I was over at my brother-in-law's house and we were trying to put in a sound system, some rear speakers for a sound system. And I was up on an inappropriate stool and I fell and I cracked my left leg, the femur. The bone comes up and then makes a right turn into the socket, big socket. I broke that femur. But it broke so cleanly when they put it back together with screws and a strap and everything. It didn't hurt because it fit so close."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-08-23T08:24:01+00:00","id":22338,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":22337,"text":" Thank you."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-08-23T08:24:54+00:00","id":22339,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":22338,"text":" Okay, there we go. Good deal there Jim. I don't think you've ever timed it out before. How about that? But good story. I know the ramps. You're talking my grandfather was an engineer on the railroad. He worked just local down in the steel mills. And like I said, the risks are tough. They're definitely tough for sure. And you mentioned that ramp and how the cars go up there. I'll tell you to this day, if I have to load something into the back of my truck, I find a grade that I can kind of back up to that lowers the tailgate. Because the tailgate's high. It sits pretty high. And people always tell me, boy, that is really smart. I'm like, I don't know, for me it seems like common sense. I see people trying to lift stuff into their vehicles and I see them right by a dip in the road or something, or a curb. I'm like, just back up to that. That takes another two feet of lifting off of you. Anyway, Jim, always good to hear you there. I've got Mel and Terry on the rechecks. And then we're going for Brekkie.

I guess I was going to talk about ambulance a little bit. Linda Lu and I have both been in the ambulance a couple of times. I went to the doctor about a problem and I said it feels like something is pressing down on me. He said, oh, like a lead jacket. I said, yeah. I was in the hospital and a heart doctor coming to visit me and didn't say anything. But I was here a little later and it wasn't feeling good and Linda Lu said I'm going to call the ambulance. So she did. And the doctor put a stent in my heart. He said, I think I know what's wrong. And I guess my heart was having a problem. Last year we went to CPAC and had a flat tire on the way over. And then when we come back we had another flat tire. Well, we didn't have a spare so we had to call a tow truck. And I thought, well, I've got towing insurance and didn't think too much about it. Well, they only pay $50. And the tow was $300. And then a week later we were down at Fred Meyer's store and our handicapped ramp missed whatever. Didn't work right. So we had to tow again. So another $300. So I decided I better buy AAA. So if you don't have AAA, it wasn't that much. I think it was less than $25 a year. So my suggestion would be if you think you might need tow sometime, you might want to invest in AAA. Anyway, I'll scroll here now. Kitty's almost asleep on my lap now.

My other ones no and I know my truck would probably cost a good bit to tow because it's like 9,000 pounds. So anyway thanks Mel and yeah I remember those flat tires you had and unfortunately I need tires on my truck right now they're starting to dry rot but dang they're expensive I'm looking at probably three grand to put new tires on that thing.

As a youth, I rode the banana seed butterfly handlebar Schwinn. And the downside of that is whenever I take a walk now, I don't feel a little burn until I've walked 15 miles. And my broken arm was done at the Westford Gymnasium. They had this beautiful stage and a basketball hoop that you could jump up off the stage and grab and swing out and back and land on the stage. Well, I swung out and lost my hand, hold on to one side, and down I went and broke my arm. And we went to the doctor and Eugene to have it set. They mentioned the, because I've been fat, they mentioned the breast augmentation. I told them, I'm all boy. But when they put this big old needle that was about, I'd say, six inches long in my wrist in order to put fluid in there so they could maneuver the bones. And then also I dropped a number two can of Latter-day Saint Welfare tomatoes on my right hand toe, and it's never really healed. It's still a big pain in the neck. And that's been in 1984 when that happened. I'm actually, I think that my tibia, I think I've explained that before. So, but anyway, I think that will do it for me. Everyone have a great regular day.

Cami here, KJ7RAB. Yeah, yesterday was great. I had the day off as did Robert, so we got to run around and goof off on a school day. We went to, I got to go to the tool truck and meet his tool guy. I've never been to a tool truck before. It was quite something. I kind of felt like a little bit, he was like a drug dealer. You know, you go into his truck and he's got all these fancy tools. And tools are not inexpensive. And he's got the new whiz-bang model of everything. And he's showing off the new version of this and talking about the new version of that that's coming up. And Robert got a new drill set and then some other tool that I didn't even know existed that's anodized this really pretty color of green. And then I finally got to go to Tacoma Screw. I've never been able to go there before because they're only open on weekdays during business hours, which is when I'm glued to the keyboard. So we got to go to the one that he used to go to all the time. And it was nice because he got to see some of the books that he hasn't seen in a long time. And that was really nice. And then we had lunch at Dick's in Everett. We got home and then Brooks and Megan asked if we wanted to meet up. So we met up with them. And so it was a pretty long action-packed day yesterday. Today we're starting off at the Steely Diner. And then, yeah, you heard Robert talk about his hair. Yeah, it'll be interesting to see. You know, he had short hair when I met him.

So I'll try to take a good photo and it's like nope, not going to happen. So I'm sure that whatever he decides to do with his hair is going to look amazing. And it'll be nice for him because I know it's really been bugging him with his new job. There's a lot of metal shavings and it just wreaks havoc with his hair. It's been really hard to brush out and and all of that. And it also grows really fast. So if he misses it, he can always grow it back. That's about all I've got for now.

It certainly doesn't interfere with the legibility of your transmission, but it is back there. It kind of sounds like a 60 hertz, or I don't know what the frequency would be, but there's definitely something back there. It's not interfering at all, but it's there. That's all I have to say.

Yeah, don't you know that metallic greaser look is kind of in? No, I'm just kidding. Anyway, I can't wait to see the pictures. But yeah, well unfortunately here we have a very smoky day. Our IQI is up about 160 right now, and things are pretty hazy. Yesterday wasn't bad, but we do have a wildfire burning kind of northwest of us. It's not threatening us by any means, but the smoke is certainly here to be dealt with. But yesterday we went to the Madras Air Show and it was absolutely spectacular, I have to say. We actually had a wing walker there. I haven't seen a wing walker in a long time, so that was pretty neat. She's great. She and her husband do this gig, and it was really spectacular to watch them do loops and rolls with somebody standing up there on the top of the plane. Anyway, that being said, we also got the Patriot jets flying. And they did an aerobatic show that I thought was as good or if not better than almost any air show I've ever seen. It was absolutely spectacular. And so that was pretty neat. And fortunately the smoke from the fire that we have kind of stayed out of the way. We did get a little bit of smoke and as the sun set it turned real orange. So having the air show in front of the sun set was really pretty spectacular looking. So that was kind of fun. Today I think we're doing some shopping and I don't know what else we're doing with the smoke and the heat. But we had the Blower Bocce Ball Game off last night for the air show. Oh well, that's the way it is. Maybe we'll get some bocce in today. I don't know. Maybe get a walk in somewhere if we can get out of the smoke a little bit. So we'll see. Any rate, thanks for doing the net. Sounds terrific as always. And hey, everybody have a great day and we'll talk to you later. This is KD7, Papa Whiskey Bravo Day, the High Desert Pirate Radio. Hey good morning Dave. Great to hear from you this morning. What a wonderful air show. I looked them up online and that just looks like a really cool event.

And I'm looking and I'm looking and I'm looking and well, anyway, I don't have much time because I've got to scoot over to the Kingston Ferry. We're on our way to the 90th anniversary of the Bremerton Sons of Norway. So a big, big celebration over there. So we've got to hop on the ferry before the crowds arrive for the ferry. And that will be a lot of fun. So we get to get all dressed up and have a little party over there. That will be lots of fun. Saw a couple of very interesting radios announced from ICOM over at the Tokyo Ham Show. Saturday morning was last night. Our time. And Ray Novak was on a live stream. And so it was fun to see Ray do a live stream. And the big show item was the IC735 Mark II. It looked pretty snazzy. If you didn't see that, I'm sure it will be plastered all over YouTube and the Internet. But there was also a nice new mobile update for the ID5200, which is a FM 2-meter, a 70-centimeter mobile with an updated color screen. Looks really nice. It's probably at least a year or two away from release. It was under glass. So I think it's at least a year or two. But all we saw was an ICOM booth. And there's somebody there that's supposed to be doing the full tour. So hopefully that will get posted. That's my news. That's what I'm up to. Enjoy your breakfast, everyone.

It was a lot. This morning though I am getting ready to go pick up the county side by side. I'm going to head up over 9600 feet working with the Bridgerland Amateur Radio Club to move a VHF repeater that is an amateur repeater from the State Public Safety Communications Commission to my tower, county tower on Sedgwick Peak in South Eastern Idaho. The PSC, State Public Safety Communications, they've decided to up the rent so high that the Bridgerland Amateur Radio Club couldn't afford it anymore so I worked with them and about a four county coalition to get an MOU together and they're moving it, we're going to move it over to my tower up there today, should be very fun. Anyway I heard Robert complaining about his hair, I get that 100%, my hair has to be specific and last time I had cut it my wife came in to help me and trimmed just a little too much, I do the buzz cut and I don't like looking like a ping pong ball so just recently I have been able to shave the sides down and get more of the Sheriff's Department style high and tight.

I on the other hand, am still doing battle with a tremendous amount of wax in my left ear. And a week ago yesterday, Friday, a week ago, the ladies in our clinic started the procedure of warm water and squirt, squirt, squirt. And at that point, I was noticeably lost about, oh, maybe less than 5% of my hearing. So I said, yeah, I think there's some wax in there. Well, guess what? After they got through squirting, I almost had no hearing, no hearing at all in my left ear. And there was some pain from the squirting. And so to make matters worse, it got so bad the other day, I walked into a walk-in clinic and they also started squirting water to get rid of the wax and all of that stuff. And then, so it's proceeded, there's no hearing in my left ear. I mean, I can hear myself speak in my own head, but if I put my finger in my right ear and somebody's right next to me talking, there's nobody there. It's really an odd feeling.

I'm looking at the extended weather forecast, and for Tuesday, for here at the lake, they're projecting 100. Holy cow, the heat won't let up here. And it's going to last until about Labor Day. And then it turns the switch. It's like, hey, summer's over, go back to work, go back to school, and we'll see you next year. So it's kind of what it's doing this year.

We did have, you know, over 80 for a week or two at the beginning of August, but that was it. Like the second half of August, the temperature has fallen out again, and I really hope it warms up again before winter, because we didn't get enough summer this year, we really didn't. And the heat we did get caused massive wildfires around the island, so it's kind of a catch-22. We want it to be nice again, but we don't want the island to burn down either, so... I guess everyone that wished for the temperatures to drop and the rain to come got what they wished for, because, let me tell you, it feels like October up here.

I know, I was, I think if I remember right, I saw on the news, was it last week, that you guys were colder than average for this time of year, which certainly aligns with what you're saying there. Yeah, you know, I would like, it's part of the, I like, this is, one of the reasons I like the Pacific Northwest is it's very mild, it doesn't get too hot in the summer, it doesn't get too cold in the winter. And we, I think, traditionally have a bit of a shorter summer. People don't traditionally have air conditioning units in our neck of the woods. It's becoming increasingly common. But, yeah, anyway, I don't know, I'm rambling. I feel like, I just hope you guys get some more weather. And it's always great to hear from you, Daryl. Thanks for stopping by, 73. And enjoy this weekend, even if it's not as nice as it would be, as it is here, I guess, yeah. Anyway, 73, my friend. Okay, next on the list, I've got Rich, K3OE.

This is Dean KG7ODB. Well I'm about to head over to the Lake Washington event. And I was really glad to hear John W7JSM mention that there's some shade there because I really didn't want to be out in the sun. There was the one at the Museum of Flight a couple months back where I got a little bit sunburned because there wasn't much shelter there. It was a great event, but not much shelter. Anyway, so it was interesting when Robert checked in earlier about getting all of his hair cut off. Number one, it's very interesting when people decide to do this when it's really hot. I think anybody who's got long hair considers that during hot times. But one reason why I've been considering getting all mine cut off is there's that maintenance when you take a shower in the morning. Like when my hair is short, it's just a matter of putting some shampoo on there and just wiping off. But it becomes a real process when you have a fair amount of hair. It's like, oh today am I going to take the time to wash it and then dry it and go do that whole process. It's almost inspiring hearing you Dana and Robert talking about doing that because the thought has crossed my mind. So let's see what else. I don't have too much going on right now, but I hope everybody stays cool and as James says, don't burn. So I look forward to seeing him over at that event and get an actual real life don't burn.

He's like, the best thing you can do for yourself is to swim. And I went away thinking about doing other things. You know, he also said, you know, walking the elliptical, whatever. And I'm like, you know, I grew up swimming. I love to swim. I competitively swam for seven years. I made state times one time in breaststroke, another time in the 400 IM. And I always thought when I got older that I would be one of those old women swimming laps. And now is my time. So when I was, it's time to be an old woman swimming laps for a hip replacement.

And I think I'm in Ballard. I know I'm deep into Seattle, and I wouldn't come here unless they paid me to. Working a case, as usual. This is Sean, your H-I-T-I. Boy, the last time we talked, I was doing pretty good. Since then, not so much. A typical birthday weekend over the first, and got smacked. I got rear-ended on I-5. And that's just been a nightmare. So I'm using a loaner car here from family and just kind of making it happen, Captain, as we keep going and pressing on. But otherwise, I'm feeling a little bit better. I had a swollen liver of all doggone things, and that finally got to where it was bearable. So I can only imagine what some of those boxers and MMA guys go through after taking a look. But anyway, just sitting out here trying not to overcook in the heat. A little warm today in downtown Seattle. Even warmer in a black car, of course. And just staring at a garage door, waiting for it to open, and the right car to pop out. It's amazing what they take people to do in this world. Hope everybody's enjoying their Saturday. Thanks for picking me up, Snowy7, Echo, Charlie, Victor, Reconet. Repeater station, Kilo Kilo 7, November, Quebec, November. All-star, Node 6222. Located in Shelton, Washington. N7ECV, Alpha Golf 7, Yankee, Mike. Oh, man. You know what? I was rear-ended once on an off-ramp. I was sitting there waiting to go. And then this car just came in. He was gliding along probably like no more than five miles per hour, probably more like three. And man, I'm glad I had my seat belt on, because I went flying. So I can imagine if someone's going faster and they hit you, that's definitely going to rattle you up. So I hope you're well. It sounds like your swollen liver is under control. I have a little bit of a swollen knee, but that's because of pickleball. So that's my own fault. I suppose it's better than being a boxer, but still, oh my gosh. And black car, you know what? I've always owned white cars, except for one case when I got a good deal on a deep blue Honda Civic car. It was a good price, and so I took that one instead of my normal white cars, because I definitely like the cooler white cars. But now, the current car is my wife's, and so it's very dark burgundy, and it gets sweltering in there. But I find even just a reflector shade in the windshield really helps keep things cool. So that's perhaps a tip for you. Maybe that'll help out. At any rate, hopefully you solve the case, you crack the case, and you can go back home and enjoy the rest of the weekend.

And ham radio net day all day until 12, that is a lot of amateur radio. But yeah, I see a lot of even on HF, a lot of the nets, they'll be doing Saturday stuff so it's pretty fun. Enjoy all that. I should fire up my radio and see if I can pick up any Slow Scan TV. A couple days ago I got an interesting picture from a fellow in Monterrey, Mexico. That was a lot of fun. I could barely tell what his call sign was so I cheated and went to a website for Slow Scan TV and saw their reception, somebody else's reception of it and found out who it was.

I was considering going there. It completely slipped my mind because my daughter is coming over as well today. So I was just being a lazy bum eating breakfast. Thankfully I remembered my net today. Always easy on Saturday because I try not to be anywhere on this day so I can get it done when I'm due out. Alrighty, let's see here.

Happy Saturday everybody, K1GMM, I should be in the clear. It caught me in the depot, what's called the depot in Manchester. It's down in a deep hole and it sits behind the mountains from where my node is. I'm running an all scan system, a RATIVAS, and that is feeding an LA-145 at about 60 watts out of an X-510 and I use that for brute force, knife edge reflections all the way down through the valley. And then the other node is in Arlington, which is 25 miles south, and that is the same thing pushing about 40 watts out of a combat search and rescue whip that I have mounted on the roof of my mother's house around the soffit. In between the two nodes it covers a third of the state of Vermont, believe it or not, through the mountains. No line of sight, no nothing, all done via brute force.

It's one area I've tried for ten years to cover with different antenna systems and power settings and different beams using reflections off the mountains. I cannot do it.

And so I'm like, okay, I remember the last time. So yes, it took the fear of greater purpose to get me to write that one. Any rate, keeping the AC off, I totally understand that. Like I said, I've got a portable AC unit in our master bedroom. And I don't like to turn it on when I cannot because you can see the lights dim precipitously when it turns on and they day dim while it's operating. The lights on that run, it's sucking a lot of power out. So I don't use it in dire need. So far so good. Tonight might be another dire need day. I feel a house temperature rising rapidly.

The frequency, the negative offset, and the tone, and then Alturas, California, all in that node listing. That is really cool, Jim. Well, great to hear you. Great to hear you, Kirk.

And I argued no, it's simply a map, but the computer gives you a suggestion. You can say you want to do it or not. I do that all the time. I might say, okay, take me home. And that's just to get me to the nearest off-ramp to wherever freeway I want to get to, or on-ramp I should say. But then often I'll ignore it. And the machine goes crazy telling me to turn around or here's your new program or whatnot. But like once I know, I'm happy enough. So I don't think using a map is AI, but my wife, she thinks we're relenting some of our mental powers. Ha ha ha ha. At any rate, so thank you for that info on the roads. Enjoy the grilling. It's a wonderful day for it. I like to sit outside. Usually after I mow the lawn, I'll have an ice cream or just sit down and drink a nice glass of ice water or sometimes when I have some mangoes, I'll mix up a mango smoothie with milk.

Our old block's been zoned to that so the minute somebody starts to get a permit for that level of development and digs into the ground and it starts, yeah then our property taxes will skyrocket potentially so, yep I got a plan but it's going to take everybody and we'll have to form a cooperative so to speak and buy homes in the neighborhood from people we want to get to know.

I was there a bit later, about a quarter after nine or something in the morning. But it was good. Making some plans. We're going to try and hit a repeater in kind of like, well, between border crossings, let's say, between Canada and Alaska. There's a repeater installation we have up there that is not cooperating and we would very much like it for the race coming up in September 6th, I believe, 6th and 6th, Friday, Saturday, the Klondike Road Relay and our Econ Amateur Radio Association will be helping to provide some support and communications and tech and safety. Looking forward to that. Yeah, we're going to see if we can get to this repeater next week. We got contingency plans. That, well, makes it, you know, put the effort in. Paint in the house, we got scaffolds set up right now. Haven't got to the paint yet. I don't know if it's going to happen this year. I'm hoping it will.

You know, it's really good to get a chance to play with someone really good. And so we were zero to ten, we were zero to ten and we were one point away from being pickled and then boom, I managed to score a point and we got, you know, on the board. He can't pickle us, pickle is when you get zero to eleven. And so we were on the board, so I did my little victory dance and then we managed to get seven more points, holding him off until finally we made a mistake and he won. But it was hilarious, he was trying to get in our head, you know, it was all fun, it was all good fun. He was trying to get in our heads but we showed him that you threaten us with a pickle and that's just war. So that was my latest excitement. Hopefully you can get your border crossing repeater running, that would be a bummer if that thing stays offline, get that thing up and running. And welcome to your wife who's an operator. I'd like to hear a check in from her sometime. We get to check in from her point of view. We have another couple of operators, Kami and Robert, the same thing. We always get two different points of view on similar events. At any rate, good luck on painting the house. Hopefully that will happen, that's pretty important."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-08-23T13:12:34+00:00","id":22602,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":22601,"text":" I'm going to assume that is KJ7VEU, KJ7VEU, Vrychek.

They have a net in the mornings, and it allows them to pick up the rest of the nets we carry in the evenings and throughout the day here.

Our group, my primary group of friends, hangs out here in the mornings. We get together at 7.30 a.m. Eastern and out till about 10 or 10.30. And then we have another net that starts at 10, but we kind of pick up the second half of it usually. And then all throughout the day, we've got stuff going on. We've got a website, if you're interested in checking it out, it's DoDropIn.info. And you can listen to your own audio, how it sounds back through the system as well. We've got a 24-7 broadcast link there to the website, or you can put the scanner radio on your app and search or on your phone and search DoDropIn that way. And you'll be able to hear how you sound back through the system and stuff. So lots of fun to be a bad man. We're a pretty technical group.

I know my local repeaters here, they're kind of quiet. Although we do have a linked conference system called W4FTK. That one is generally active at 8 a.m. in the morning and 5 p.m. in the evening. They do have some nets, but other than that it's quiet around the South Carolina area. So I kind of wanted to venture out into the All Star world and also Echo Link world.

As long as it doesn't start keying up, like after transmissions and stuff like that, now and then you'll get systems that have got a little tail on them, and their tail will trigger a system with another tail, and then they'll just bounce back and forth until someone cancels one of them off the system. That gets to be a bit of a pain, but I don't think yours is going to do that.

It's all good, man. What I like about it, I like the fact that I have a portable kicking around the house. I've got several in different rooms, actually, because our repeater is here at my place. I live about 650 feet above the city on a hill, and my antenna sits at about 600, 650 feet or so. Up on my back deck, and that faces out over the whole city. So this repeater gets, I'd say, from its furthest point to its furthest point, about 100 miles of coverage. So it's a great repeater for the area. It's on UHF. But a lot of people are using those hotspots, Siri nodes, clear nodes, homebrew stuff. Man, there's so much out here to play with if you're into IP and into communications. We've got fellows out here that are doing AI scripting. We've got some really good web programmers out here. Well, we've got some pretty good web programmers out here. I mean, really, really good would be out of this world. But we've got some good people that do our website, and I manage the links and the conferences and the system and all that. And if you're ever around in the mornings, man, you get to meet some of our group. We've got a pretty good group. We do allow political discussions and stuff like that on NetNet. You know, whatever's in the news type of thing, talk about it. We're not restrictive. The rest of the nets are out here throughout the day. You'd never talk about that kind of stuff. But in the mornings, oh, yeah, we've got a pretty good, lively morning crew. And we get into discussion. Whatever's in the news, man. So it's a good time out here. Like you say, a lot of people are not really for the political discussions, but we do it where we don't hurt anybody's feelings, you know? We don't fire back at people and stuff like that. We just, you know, give our opinions and what we think of things. You know, it's not always political, but just a heads up, sometimes it does get that way. But that's the only net you'll hear on the system that's that way. And that's because it's one that myself and, you know, my regular group of friends hang out at. There's usually around 20 or 30 of us in the mornings, some of which just listen, others of which, like myself, can't shut up. It's usually a good time, though. So if you're ever around, you know, bright early in the morning, 730 Eastern to, you know, 1030, you're more than welcome to join us. You'll hear me out there every day, as well as a lot of bunch of good folks. But a bunch of good folks as well. So, you know, we have a good time. Our full net schedule is available on our Web site. Do drop in that info. This is the conference. Go to your local. I am. I know. Oh, you're located and got everything on there about who we are, who our net controllers are.

Good evening all radio operators worldwide. My call is Victor Echo One, Echo Papa from Halifax. Today on my QRZ page we're monitoring about 245 picovolons. We had 70 balloons launched last week, 39 balloons launched this week, 7 new launches yesterday and one very special memorial launch today with family and friends for a sonnet key operator who was dedicated in promoting ham radio. Ted's call was Victor Alpha Seven, Yankee Quebec, Quebec. Well done Ted as we say our special 73. This picovoloon liftoff from Vancouver at 2 p.m. Pacific now sailing free 13,000 meters over Vancouver. This week I received many URL topics on picovoloons from what we did in the past to what we're doing today and plans what we have for tomorrow as to micro-digital cameras similar to SlowScan TV. Very excited by my dedicated picovoloon flight of 37 days, estimated travel 80,000 kilometers, its first circle of the earth in 21 days. Today and today it was over mid-Pacific, picked up a jet stream and bearing for Hawaii. In closing I'm shocked to see that my YouTube launch of VE1EP has been viewed over 700 times. If you're all interested in picovoloons please check out my QRZ page and send me an email. Still looking for more operators to adopt a picovoloon. That's my report for this weekend and thanks for sharing. Everyone stay safe and be well.

This is a new moon. And this is just reference to the purpose of Black Moon, is reference to being a new moon phase, because you can't see it. The moon is positioned so it's between the Earth and the sun, so it's being quite reflected back toward the sun. We're just getting the darker face of the other moon. And it shares some characteristics with a blue moon in that it's not all that common. Like a blue moon, it can happen twice in a calendar month. So that's what we're getting. We get to new moons in one month, much like a blue moon. And that's simply because if a moon occurs on, let's say the 31st of a month, it's more likely to have two full moons that happen during that month. And that's simply because the blue moon cycle is 29.5 days. So going from a new moon to a full moon, 29.5 days. And because it was 31 days in some months, you're going to get some overlap there where you're going to get a, possibly a full moon, which is called a blue moon, and two of those in one month.

The tympanic membrane, the eardrum, it's almost transparent. And when they shine that light in there, it goes right through the tympanic membrane, and you can see the bones. You can see those bones.

It doesn't sound like a lot, but considering the very short distance that the signals have to travel, it's moving along very, very fast. You're not noticing any real lag in the time in which the nerve is sending a signal to a spinal cord destination. But if you were to take all those nerves, these alpha motor neurons, and put them into hand, they would extend several thousands of miles.

And the craft is based on technologies that haven't been invented yet, and will rely on, actually before they can even build this, they also have technology that can locate a black hole close enough to Earth to make the trip worthwhile. And some of the more sensitive technologies out there for detecting gravitational waves, the new generation of those will be able to pick up some of these smaller black holes, and we can be something even much closer to Earth than what they've now discovered.

And according to the team, the signature of a large pool of morsels would be a delayed burst of high energy gamma rays waiting in all directions. Gamma rays, for instance, rate bursts. Like if you hear about fast radio bursts, etc. They're usually beams. In bursts, they'll become beams. They're not scattered all over. So that's what the new high energy gamma rays radiation beams would look like. They wouldn't be in any one direction. They'd be scattered all over. And instruments capable of detecting these high energy signals could be used in things like the atmosphere of Cherenkov's telescopes, also the high energy stereoscopic system, and the high altitude water tricloflop observatory in Mexico, even the high altitude air shower observatory in China, as well as satellite based detectors like the Fermi gamma ray space telescope. And in fact, some of these, as I've already had the sensitivity, is an important burst. This is repeater station Kilo Key 7 in Denver, Quebec, November. And the researchers adopted the right data from the high altitude water tricloflop observatory to place some upper limits on how much mass could be emitted in the form of morsels during the norms known as black pool mergers. And these limits represent the first observational limits of this really kind of weird new type of phenomena that we're looking at."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-08-23T19:25:34+00:00","id":22841,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":22840,"text":" And if black hole morsels formed during mergers, they would produce this faint burst of high-energy gamma rays with the timing of a burst linked to their masses.

The exact conditions for their formation still aren't really known, or at least not well understood. And there's no full simulation that will perform at scale of the necessarily model.

Pollen, the large form of the diet, has a specific lipid called sparrow and are needed for developing further development. And increasingly, beekeepers are feeding artificial pollen to their bees due to not enough natural pollen. However, these commercial supplements, which are made of protein, flour, sugar and oil, don't have the right sparrow compounds, making them officially incomplete for the bees.

Yes, I always get shaken up at the beginning at these nets and I don't get my notes very well. But Bill is a good name and that's my name and my call is Kilo 7 Whiskey Foxtrot Bravo.

Looking forward to tomorrow, and then afterward about 10 or 12 of us usually go out for lunch. We're going to a place called Sonny's Barbecue tomorrow, so you can imagine the wonderful listings on their menu. Mmm. So it should be fun. And then I go to the Women's Vibes Study on Wednesdays. This is only been my second week there, will be my second week. And everybody is so friendly and so nice. It's really wonderful. But anyway, enough about that. Because I had a great day. Nothing else much is going on. I'm doing my word searches and watching my shows and enjoying life, quite frankly. So I hope you have a real good evening and a day tomorrow, Bill.

So it's really a good study and the teacher is excellent. So back to you Bill, I hope that answers your question. Back to you, N3OMO. Well thank you Elaine, yeah that does and it sounds interesting. Actually the only Bible study I've ever done was a history course at the University of Washington approaching the Gospels from a historical point of view which was really interesting.

So I kind of raced in, got some good things. None of them have just been kind of sticking around that much. I ventured out to the PCC in Burien. It's the closest one to my house here in Tacoma.

I've made a discovery. I'm lactose intolerant. So I have not been going to ice cream shops at all. Well, I go, but I watch my grandkids get ice cream. But I just didn't realize that some of these shops now have vegan stuff, which is of course lactose, no lactose. So I have been a happy customer at Molly Moon's at their new location down on the waterfront for their coconut chunks. I love it. So after 40 years, I'm eating ice cream again. Anyway, who's interested in taking a look at that page? Rebecca mentioned, just let me give you his call again. It's AF4LL. Very good. Thanks, Rebecca.

And trying to figure out where this particular story is going to end up going is kind of an interesting thing because it takes place over about 25 years. And I'm not one of these authors who wants to be inconsistent. Marion Zimmer Bradley was very loose about that and so the arc over kind of sprawls and overlaps. The stories overlap each other and they're kind of interesting but I would rather be consistent. So anyway, I did work a little bit on that and then I worked a little bit on Harp when I finally got to the point where I could place something coherent. And I have to say I envy Elaine in her Bible study class. I would actually like to teach Bible study on 2 Kings because that's an interesting book. And 2 Kings 5 tells the story of one of the most famous and interesting healings in the Bible. Not so much because of the healing itself but because of the relationships of the people involved and what they have to say about our own relationships. The captive girl for instance who tells her mistress that she wishes that Naman could go to the prophet in Israel who could heal him. Imagine being a slave girl having information your boss needs. Being a subordinate that has information the boss needs is always unhappy making. And there's all kinds of little relationship tidbits and that particular chapter I wrote a whole series of essays on that chapter actually which I think are on the internet somewhere.

Maybe I'll try a little Simplex work or other repeaters with this thing and play around with it some more. It's been a while. I'll see, otherwise, I don't know. Just downloading some Wikipedia pages. Oh, in my finding pages, what was this one? List of 3D films. Oh no, before that there is films by technology. So yeah, like I'm sure this film is like, just there is a three strip Technicolor and there's all kinds of, and massive lists of films. I think the list of 70mm films is like 900 Wikipedia pages, things like that. It's quite a rabbit hole of video and film technology because of the different, oh there's a, I found software for it, 4K scope. It will do 4K video on a 7, Windows 7 computer or more. And there's anything, there's also they do an HDMI, they do a display port, and they do other forms of video analysis software for Windows or yeah, for Windows 7 or 10, depending on the complexity. Those look like they're really worth it for those who do production because I haven't, I'm not familiar with those. I'm just familiar with vector scope technology.

Here in the Bay Area today we're about 80 degrees here and sunny so it was a nice day out and had it around my ear a couple of times. So in fact my apartment is warming up right now actually. But yeah, pretty good day. You know, my daughter's lost and days always look brighter when your team wins. And yeah, I was on the Papa's system, anything but radio net, they have one Saturday nights. And they're talking about search and rescue, have you been part of it or have you experienced it? And it was kind of interesting hearing some of the stories that these people brought about different aspects and you know, a few tragic ones unfortunately. But I'm just worried about how the responders really, really help out. You know, they're a bunch. Yeah, because every time I've been rescued or that I've been there we had a call on that. And they're calling us when they show up is always what impressed me, you know, and so they show up and you get a feeling like, you know, how are you? What's going on? You know, and they're very good at what they do. And then yeah, the squirrel report today had a princess running around here. And late afternoon Rocky showed up and ate the peanuts I put out for him and all the nuts and everything. And another squirrel showed up and he was kind of chasing that one around. So they were getting exercise. Boy, those squirrels can move. They are fast. And it was just on and off and pretty good. No complaints. So let me turn it back to the net. AB6NB. AB6NB. I'm not talking to him. AB6NB, Jeff, thank you so much for your report and the report on Rocky and Princess. And I just mentioned those people who show up in emergencies, those first responders. I bet everybody on the net tonight has had some experience with those people. And they were so impressed that they just got here so damn quick and they said good night. That's what they do. It's very cool. Let's go over to Tukwila and talk to Adam, K-7, I think it's K-H-Y. Come ahead, Adam. Good evening, everybody. I'm sitting here in my driveway in the car, checking, running a check on some new equipment. I recently purchased a car and of course one of the benefits of getting a car is getting a warranty on it. And so of course the first thing I wanted to do was install some new radio gear in it. And while researching the best way to do that, it turns out that if I wire any electrical equipment into this car that is not exclusively through the cigar lighter, it can violate the warranty, which of course I don't want to do. So after banging my head on the dashboard a bit, I decided to step down to a relatively simple and minimalistic setup here. So I've got a cup holder mounted cell phone holder that is holding a little 10 watt handheld that is getting trickle charged with a USB cord and wired up to a rooftop antenna with a magnet. So no actual installation in the car and so far I'm actually pretty impressed with the setup and quite proud of myself for doing it all for about 75 bucks. So overall I'm having a pretty good night and that's pretty much all I've got. KF7KH wide back to net and I'd appreciate a report on my audio quality if you could. Your audio quality is pretty good. I wasn't listening real careful until you said it, but once I listened, yeah, I think you sounded fine. Actually quick question, what's the 10 watt handheld? I'm looking at it here. It is a BaoFeng 5R Mike. 5R Mike you said, okay, very good. Yeah, well I think you got creative there and you're getting out just fine and you don't need to void your warranty. I have a relevant new car too. I was never that interested in putting stuff in the car, but I wonder if all warranties have that now. It wouldn't be surprising given how much those cars depend on a lot of sensitive electronics. They probably just don't want any trouble. They kind of sympathize in a way even though it's unconstitutional to get in the way of ham radio. We all know that. Let's go over to Joan. I'm the behavioral observatory on Broadway, KX2 CW.

So I had to get this special plastic Lexan. So it would be plexiglass cut so it accepts the little connector from the air conditioner. And I put it in there but it kind of pulls down and pulls out so I have it propped up on books and blah blah blah. Anyway I had it running early afternoon and went in in the late afternoon and the bedroom was 84 degrees because the thing had fallen out of the window.

And we're trying to get a moss guy to come out here and get the moss off the roof. And it's about as hard to find the moss guys as it is to find a painter. So one was supposed to show up this afternoon, never showed up. So we've got one tomorrow, so we got our fingers crossed. We'll see. In the meantime, we threw some hamburgers on the grill. And let's see what else we do. I worked on my all-star node, and we're making progress. Probably heard me doing some testing. I'm not on it now. But I got it so it kind of works. But it dead keys a repeater, so I had to disconnect it. But anyway, it is making progress, so it's a fun little project. I would probably use this type of a web transceiver more than an all-star node simply because it's portable and I can use it at work. I can use it in the woods and anywhere. But it's a fun project, and so it's kind of neat. But anyway, that's about it. We're just relax and listen to the net. And let's see, what else I was going to mention? Oh, Mike up in Yukon.

Well, for the last few mornings, in the very early morning, like right around 5 a.m. where it's just getting light, you can see, well, the moon has gone down quite a bit. Like two nights ago, the moon, Jupiter, and Venus were like really close to one another. And I think Mercury was right with them, but that one's harder to see. But really low on the horizon tonight is, see, it's Saturn and Neptune. Neptune is almost impossible to see, but they're like practically in the same place. So that would be considered a bit of an alignment too. So anyway, there's always interesting stuff going on up in the sky. I would wonder if, up in Alaska right now or in the Yukon, how good the northern lights would be. Because during the summer, it's light so much of the time. Because if it doesn't get dark, you can't really see them that well. But I know during the winter, I'm sure they get some pretty good northern lights up there. So anyway, KG7ODB, back to Nat. KG7ODB, K7WSB. Just quickly, if you'd review that, that's Saturn, Neptune alignment. You said it was just above the horizon. Is that at that early morning point or at another time?

Good evening to everybody on the net. I'm doing pretty well. I'm sitting curbside here in my Jeep listening to the net, doing some tinkering. It's a little bit of a summer tradition to do that, so thank you all for your lovely stories this evening and for keeping me company. I had a pretty, I'd say I had a very successful day today. First it started with sleeping in. I woke up around my usual time somewhere, I don't know, somewhere around the 730 area. And then I was like, no, this won't do. So I went back to bed and then the next time I woke up it was like 1044 AM. And I thought proper, proper, good job, body, good job. I clearly needed the rest. I was, I was, yeah, the last two days I haven't slept a lot. Certainly less than my US RDA of sleep. That's just my, that's just my fault. Bad time planning my part and distracting, distractions and staying up late. But anyway, so then I had a lazy day. I listened to the new net. I had my morning coffee. Just sat around. Then around one o'clock I came out here. I started tinkering on the Jeep. I made this little panel because I want to have a radio in here. I want to have one of my cute, awesome Motorola radios. And I had found a way to mount that a couple of months ago. But I kind of wanted to have a panel to cover it up because you know the Jeep, you know anybody can wander in the Jeep. Security is really nonexistent. So I made this panel that's stretched across the whole underside of the dash. And part of that will be used to creatively disguise the radio when I'm not in the vehicle. So that makes me happy. But in order to do that I had to make a bunch of, so for that and for the parking break release, I had to make a bunch of square openings. Square openings. You know, someday they're going to invent a square thing. Oh, I got it reset."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-08-23T22:07:40+00:00","id":22954,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":22953,"text":" Thank you, BaoFangUV5R, finest radio ever made, for informing me that I was about to time out. Anyway, there's got to be an easier way to make square holes in panels, but you know whatever I persevered, I was working with aluminum so it's not that difficult, but still, still making square holes with round drill bits and things. Oh, and a hacksaw, not a hacksaw, a, you know, the mechanical one, the jigsaw, the jigsaw, that's what it is. Anyway, so fun, so I feel successful. It's installed now, it's good, it looks really smooth. I won't say it looks professional because I did it, but it lives up to Amy's standards. Hope everybody had a great day, hope everybody has a wonderful rest of the weekend. KB9IQX. KB9IQX37WFE. Amy, sounds like a very successful day, especially sleeping in until 1044, and having that day come out and not be a weekday is great success. You got the rest you need and you didn't get fired. And you know the solution for a square opening is you get a square drill, silly. Actually I think I still make those little nibblers, they were you kind of take a little chomp out of the aluminum and nibble your way around. I recall using one of those 50 years ago.

Kind of a warm evening, let's see what are we sitting on here? Looking across the bottom of the screen and no temperature listed right now. It must be 70 I'm thinking. Gotta get a fan going tonight for sure. Bill had a fun day, wife and I. We, Rodney Vood, she came from Diamond Point area and then I came from Kingston. We connected there at the Spruce Goose Diner and we got there just in time because it really backed up and a lot of folks were there, a lot of people waiting in line. More than we've ever seen before. And by golly I changed what I normally get, usually pancakes, eggs and sausage. I guess I'm burnt out on that so I moved on over to a, what was it, well anyhow something different and a lot more of it. Alright so we did all that, oh and I got to see some folks come in on one of these Burt roots and Barry Eaves, I believe it is. Two person tandem aircraft with a motor in the rear and that was the site, that was a real show stopper. They pulled up there in front of the diner and popped us a canopy and slowly climbed out. I think you have to be a bit of a yoga master to climb in and out of those little aircraft. That was fun and then we beat it on over to the boat haven. Walked around there and looked at, oh Lady Washington still getting worked on. Poor boat, it's pretty extensive.

So if you ever get a chance or curious check it out. Diamond Point just east of Swin there. Let's see, other than that the rest of the day it goofed off. So there you go. Thanks for picking her up Bill. We all appreciate it. Good evening all. Oh and I had something for KC7ODB. Dean for still out there can I talk to you after that please. KC5WFA 730. Well very good. Thank you Bill. Yeah what was I going to say? Oh that two person thing. That must have been really cool. I really envy you heading over there to that airport. That just sounds like so much fun. I actually did a little bit of that. I think I mentioned that last week on the net that we were up in Vancouver Island in Qualicum Beach and went over and saw some sky jumpers getting on a plane. They told us where to drive to see them come back out and that was fun. And I may come up to see you one of these days. Let me give you a call. I was eyeing the Kingston ferry. I just like riding ferries. So they are zooming back and forth between downtown and Kingston. So we will have lunch again. Very good. Thank you. Well thanks to everybody actually.

However, I think over the years I've heard of situations like this and usually what they want is somebody to just come in and just take it all out of there. And it's really like the good stuff. A lot of times people will buy a whole collection. There might be 1000 records, or 5000 records, but really you're buying it for those 25 real gems in there. So yeah, I'd be very curious if you could send me the information that would be cool. And then of course, Zach Whiskey Alpha 7 Tengazulu. He's the vinyl guy.
