The repeater operates at a frequency of 146.96 with a negative offset and a teal ton of 103.5. A license with TAMs and new licensees just getting started are welcome to join. If you have third party traffic, we'd like to hear from them too. We encourage you to press that button. Tell us a little bit about yourself, your radio projects, or just about anything else. Please limit your reports to three minutes so we can get as many stations in as possible. This is also when the repeater time is out. When you're finished with your report, please end with your call sign. That will keep the FCC happy.

This is Ka9ehv. Well, let's see. I finally, I'm working on getting the Coast Guard hymn or song to work into the rest of my military medley. And I knew there was a reason why I hadn't done it. And the reason is that the way that song is, or the melody of that song is just hard to fit with the rest of them on a very small harp. There are certain things that just aren't easy to do. So I spent, I must have played through that thing probably ten times or more today trying to get that transition to sound right. And if it doesn't sound right, I don't want to do it. I want it to be beautiful and perfect and all the rest of it so that my veteran friends can enjoy it. So I did that and then I wrote about five chapters in my growing novel about a poor Star Master who gets kidnapped and taken into service by a bunch of really, really evil aliens. And what they do to her is, has been actually done to people in real life, but it's not pretty. And so anyway, I'm trying to make this story a little less horrifying. Let's see, what else? Trying to figure out how it would feel to be 66 years old, having raised five children and having your first grandchild, because this is a relatively long-lived society, so you know, childbearing gets put off. So she's got her first grandchild. She's 66 years old. They discover she has the star flight talent and if she doesn't want to die in three years, she's going to have to fly. So she goes off to fly and oh my, how it would feel to be outside the port in a student pilot's uniform at 66 years of age. Just trying to wrap my mind around that one. Anyway, that's about all the news that is news today. 73, 33, 88 to everybody. Thanks to Megan and Brooks for hosting. Thanks to all of you for listening. I love you all.

I sure don't know. Wishing you all the best there, Anne, so that you can keep writing on in your book and keep getting that military melody list together.

I'm not exactly sure what she does there anymore, but it's Pizza Hut, so anything is possible. My NFED Half Wave project is proceeding. I finally got capacitors in, so when I actually have a free day where I'm not having to watch toddlers and or run to hospitals back and forth, I'm actually going to sit down and build that NFED Half Wave from the ground up. I'm really looking forward to that. And also I've got a new radio project that I'm also contemplating and putting together plans for. More on that as it progresses.

So yeah, like I said, hopefully they'll find out what's wrong with her and they can get her on the road to recovery. It will be fun though to have the grandchildren. That always is a good time. I know they can wear you out though, the little ones. Sure, yes. So good luck with the project. Glad to hear it's moving along despite all the things going on.

We had our Wednesday radio wave Wednesday coffee get together and the weather was great. And we had probably a dozen people show up and talked about a lot of different stuff. And also we're planning a PODA next week. We got a swap meet coming up, a couple of take meetings. So we got a lot of stuff going on. But tonight we did an Aries net and they did something different. They ran a coastal net and a mountain net with one control operator switching back and forth between two separate repeaters. And then after they broke haul, everybody went to a third repeater just for something different. And it was sort of interesting. It's nice coming up with stuff to keep your mind active. So they started good and we're still waiting for rain. They keep talking about thunderstorms and rain and stuff. And we haven't seen anything yet. We haven't seen any hot weather yet. So who knows?

We just got past a heat wave spell here and Brooke and I were walking out of the grocery store tonight going, hmm, those clouds either look like rain or they look like they're going to be a storm.

And they come up and they grab a peanut, kind of move a little bit, look at it, and then take off, and then stop, and then take off, and then stop, and then finally start to eat it. It's got this funny little rhythm. And they're very entertaining to watch. Rocky, my favorite one, I haven't really seen him lately. And I got a bad feeling about that. Maybe he got flattened by a car. I don't know. I sure hope I can see him because he's like, he's the only one that'll take a peanut from my fingers, which I don't do too often. And he stands at my window on my patio here and looks in at me like, do you want to give me something? What do you mean? And I go, okay, I'll go feed him. But anyway, yeah, I watched the Dodgers win.

We have this bush that's on the side of the driveway, and we typically have to cut it back a couple times a year so that we can get both the cars parked comfortably. The main part of the bush was doing fine, but the blackberry, there was one blackberry vine that was growing out very gnarly, getting in the way of the pathway, and finally got out the clippers and chopped that down today. So yeah, I know what you mean by sometimes the yard work needs to be done. Thanks for stopping by, Rich. Have a great rest of your evening. All right, next up we're going to go talk to Zach, KK7WCP. Yeah, thanks for the handoff. I don't really have much to say.

I have nails. Once I haven't done any plywood, I'm looking for more pallets. I'm trying to get a second actual room done. But it's not my place. My friend built it. So I have to do permission. He's been missing in action for the last two weeks now. I haven't heard from him. The only line of communication I have is currently closed. I don't know what's up. I've been checking the jail officers. I haven't found him on there. But I don't know that I actually know his legal name. I just know him by Jerry. Anyway, this is KG7QEO. Yeah, I'm almost there. I'm waiting to get paid. I'm planning on getting a solar panel, a 200 watt bifocal panel with a Versron converter. Or not inverter, but solar charge controller with Bluetooth.

It's a panel, only puts out one amp, so there's only about five hours direct sunlight on the site. And so, you know, it's not much. I'm hoping that bifocal will improve things. The main thing is, you know, I usually charge my phone and then I've got a little $20 LED projector that I set in my hotspot with a fire stick for entertainment. And I've got a big old, I set up a big old screen in here. And, you know, and I'm a Bluetooth speaker. So, you know, I got entertainment and, yeah. But we've got to wait for payday first.

So best of wishes to you on that one there. Glad to hear that you are working on getting a way to get some stuff charged there. That is always important to charge all of our things.

So apparently there was a water main break summer but it was back on by 3.30 so but that was strange not to have any water for those hours. But anyway that's straightened out now and I went to my ladies Bible study and the hostess afterwards served very good chicken salad croissant sandwiches. Oh why? And little brownies. Oh they were so good. So that was a nice afternoon. Then I came home and saved with the kitties and the dog and Rob came home from work and we had the propane company come and they're gonna give us an estimate on what they have to do because we're having a generator put in. Well anyway not a generex but another generator and so it'll be run by propane so we have to have two 50 gallon tanks put in and I think they said gallon and 50 pounds. I'm not sure I don't understand it.

The one we had for the water heater in the stove is too close to the house now. We had it put in like 20 years ago, and now it has to be like, I don't know, 30 feet or something away from the house. So, they're gonna have to take that one up, shut it off, and put two 50-pounders in farther away from the house. So, between the generator and the propane work, it's gonna be a hefty bill, but it's gonna be well worth it when we have a storm or a hurricane and the electricity goes out. The generator will click it on just a few seconds later, so that'll be perfect. We'll still have air conditioning lights and the freezer and the food and the refrigerator. None of that will go bad. So, I think it's well worth the investment, and eventually it'll help improve the sale of the house when I'm no longer here. So, that's what's happening today. Back to you.

I've been listening for a while, but the RF side of my All-Star node here has been weak at best, and this last week and a half or so I've been mastering or trying to research and learn more RF stuff. This has always been my weekend. I have no computers, so All-Star and Raspberry Pis and all that stuff was fun to set up, but it's kind of boring because I wasn't able to talk to anyone unless I was at the house and it was still moody. So this week I did a whole bunch of projects. I got a bunch of Pi filters built and Bandpass filters so I can have a bit more selectivity on my RF side here. And then I discovered the magic of saltwater ducting. And I set up a Yagi that aims right here at Oakland Bay, and I can actually get my node from Gig Harbor now, from Shelton to Gig Harbor, which is quite a pass, but it does work. And I've been able to at least hear my node in Gig Harbor, and every once in a while I can get it on the mobile in my car. So maybe here at a future date or so I might be able to check into a new net or something at the shop in Gig Harbor. But it's been a fun adventure, going from knowing computers to learning RF. I mean I've had my license now for I think a little over two years, but I never really did anything exciting until now. And oh man, has it been an adventure. Anyways, that's where my recent adventure has been. This is KK7 and QN, back to the net. Well Hunter, I'm glad you can join us again on the net.

Although I think when we left they were losing 5-0. 0-5 I guess. And then we were listening to it on the radio. They did it on the radio on the way home. And their team is 10-0 when we pulled up to the house here, so I haven't seen what the score is. But anyway, it was fun. I'd never been to one of those minor league games.

Yeah, so another thing I was going to mention a little bit about the Aquasocks actually. And yeah, it's been quite a while since I've went to one. The last time I went to was last year during the 4th of July fireworks night. And that was actually a lot of fun, you know. And yeah, it's a totally different vibe compared to going to a major league baseball game like the Mariners, you know. And especially, I mean, one thing for sure is that when you go to a minor league ball park event like the Aquasocks, it's a much more calmer vibe, much more, you know, calmer vibe especially. But it's still a lot of fun at the same time. And also, it's a lot more affordable to go to as well. And then not to mention of all, it's actually more closer to home at my place too. But also, you also got, if you're really into following baseball players, you have a bunch of top prospects that are also playing as well actually. So, that's one thing that the Mariners are really good at and that is developing, you know, players to become potentially really great major leaguers actually. And do what we currently have right now as part of our major league roster. But yeah, I digress, you know. Otherwise, I'd be talking a whole hour and a half about baseball, you know. And I'm sure some of you guys wouldn't mind, but then I'm sure they're still going to want to take turns. But yeah, anyways, yeah, my goodness, this past month has been pretty, you know, busy, you know. I'm just about wrapping up on one of my crucial phases of one of my work projects. And that's a pretty ginormous one. I'm not going to go into details about it because of proprietary stuff. But it's actually always going to be nice for me because I've actually put in some extra PTO time as well actually. So, I'm going to be getting an extended holiday weekend actually. So, I'm actually taking this Friday and next Tuesday off from work actually. So, some much needed relaxation. So, yeah, anyways. And also, this coming Saturday, I'm keeping an eye out on the weather too actually because there's potential... Let me draw for a second."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-08-27T21:54:52+00:00","id":26137,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":26136,"text":" Yeah, so apparently there is the potential of some dry thunderstorms across the Pacific Northwest, which that is not good at all, especially with fire concerns. But also, this is one of those potentials where we could be looking at a decent amount of lightning, like one of the lightning storms we had earlier this year, or past lightning-induced thunderstorms. And we could use thunderstorms too, which, so that's something to keep in mind, especially if you're going to be out and about outside. Yeah, I know I'm going to be doing a lot of, if that's the case, I'll definitely be doing some weather photography outside. But also, as many of us have very sensitive radio equipment, that's definitely something to keep in mind when you hear thunder. Definitely bring down the antenna and also unplug the radio tube from the antenna tube. Anyway, but yeah, other than that, honestly, my report at this point here, I'm going to go ahead and get ready to go to sleep and get ready for what I would consider as my officially unofficial Friday at this point. Anyway, Megan, hopefully you have a great, well, a great weekend ahead of you, and it's good to hear from you as always here.

I haven't been to a Rainier's game for a while either. Unfortunately for us in Newcastle, Tacoma and Everett are both traffic directions, so it's hard to get to the minor league games. It's even hard to get to the major league games. It's not a very fun, usually trek across I-90 to get to those either, but yes they usually are more affordable and closer to home for you. Wrapping up a big crucial phase at work, that's exciting. I bet that feels really good. It feels good to get things accomplished and then you get to take some extra time off so that that double A feels good. And thank you for the reminder about unplugging antennas with thunder and lightning possible this weekend. Yeah I saw that on the radar as well, so I will have to keep our eye out on that because we will be out camping. So definitely something to keep track of, especially with Miss Remi Jo being terrified of thunder. So you take care Andrew, get some R&R this weekend and we will talk to you again soon.

And, uh, yeah, I was, it was quite concerning, but, uh, turns out one of the RAM sticks died. It caused the computer to have a lot of panic, but, um, because it detected a RAM stick, but it didn't detect, um, it, it wasn't reading anything from the RAM stick, so, but I got the RAM stick replaced. I'm glad I actually, actually ordered more than I should. I got it from the computer, and, um, I had to spray one thing around and put it in there, but I'm planning on replacing one. I still have a warranty on that product, so, um, we'll see if I can get one for free back. And, um, I sure hope I do. Um, anyways, I was working on the network rack today. Got some new pad cables, instead of the homemade ones that I made with industrial grade behind wall cables. They're very hard to, um, to turn and, um, not really, you know, flexible at all. Um, sure really flex your cables, but, uh, I wanted an easy slim cables, and they finally came in when I ordered them. I'm looking on a new radio. I'm planning on getting back on DMR. Um, trying to find some Raspberry Pi kits online that won't, uh, under $100. And, uh, Kannok, it seems to be having a sale on Raspberry Pi 3s.

Alright, what is your favorite wine? I'm not a, well, I'm not an alcohol person at all, right? I kind of, well, like, follow what was just said, well somebody said they don't drink wine. They, their exact words were that they don't drink wine, right? So, I might be adding in my own addition. So I'm just saying that I'm not against some Canadian ale once in a while. There's a, there used to be a bistro here, used to, because they close. No business, no small restaurant outfit here in the beaches of Toronto, just in case anyone doesn't know. They don't talk about it across the country. Vancouver ain't worried about it, right? Alberta ain't worried about it, right? They ain't worried about us here in the beaches. But no business or no little business or mom and pop business, even sometimes a famous business like Popeyes, don't really do so well in these neighborhoods. So, I end up losing a lot of favorite places and one of the ones I lost was this brickyard bistro that made some good ale and variations of things with, you know, your usual like bacon, sausage, crepes and other kind of things. It was a French place, right? You'd get some bombies or whatever, is that what they're called? Can't even say the stupid things. The long, the long bread, I call it. It just looks like a ginormous hoagie and then they, I don't know, they have their interpretation of it. I think like a favorite that that place had was this ginormous garlic bombie looking thing. I don't know, I'm saying the right thing. And if like only they make it or something, all it is, is just like garlic bread except they made it to look like a hoagie and then you put your garlic bread ingredients in it if you want ingredients, right? You could put cheese. Sometimes I'll just put in a slab of lunch meat when I make it at the crib, like reheat it at the crib with the toaster of. And yeah, they had a small collection of spirit. I think if I were to drink, I would probably roll with them because the way they kind of, their style was that they sort of figured it in combination of one of their dinners, right? Like they'd say, well, this ale goes with such and such or this goes with such and such. So that sounded good to me and then they went out of business and that was game over. Okay, so I'll turn it back to Ned. That's a good time. Wow, that's a great way to land my plane. That means stop my over. So I'll be back. I'm here.

Alright, no problem. Well the preparation of wine, they used to do that at the Ontario school for the deaf. They didn't do it for the blind school but in Millhaven for the deaf, there, deaf-blind, I think. Because that's, you know, if I'm involved in it, that's what it would be. I suppose there were regular ones there. They used to have the swim meets and everything with the regular ones. And then they'd have the get-togethers with the people from W. Roth and other places as well. Oh yeah, well, what was it, yeah, they would, they had a whole operation. I think now maybe they'll get people. I wonder, there's a big joke about that Millhaven place where, and I don't mean the prison, but where if they'll get people to maybe start growing strange. Right, because I think someone was explaining to me up there, they like the usual universal kind, like the pink kush. Somebody was saying something about medical kush. And then I guess there's other kind of made-up names that they have for, like where they just mix a whole bunch of things together and they don't care. And then they say here, smoke this or whatever, right, kind of like your Indian cigarette. So they sort of have, I don't remember all, but that would be a funny training course or something or after school thing that maybe they get the kids to. But no, older days, you know, they had green thumbs and they'd have a garden. And then your usual little things that kind of play people in the summer when you listen, especially, you know, while on CFRA they have a gardening show. And I will listen to it sometimes. Once in a while I can pick up pointers and you have your average, someone's complaining about crab, grass. Someone's complaining about, just the other day, even someone here, right? Someone's complaining about Japanese beetles or whatever. I thought Charles Manson said the beetles told them to wipe out the jacks. Oh, just random people. Because, you know, that makes it way better. It's just way better when it's just people you don't know. Okay, anyway, sorry. That's stupid. But, and I don't know. I mean, it's been a minute since I've been around Bill Hazen and all I honestly know about it now, because I was there when I, you know, like teens 20, because I think, you know, it's kind of like the myths. The myths, I think so, right? Isn't it like the myths stop before you hit Kingston 10? I think Paul Bernardo did a skid bid. That means not too long. In Mill Haven while you made a transfer. And you may hit the streets before you know it. And I wonder if he'll be like, you know, the guy in Ricochet where he say, I'm just going to continue doing what I know I usually does, right where I left off. No, he said a lot more in Ricochet. I can't repeat that. I didn't understand that part. Someone actually, if you know Ricochet, needs to tell me that part. How is it? He's getting parole, right? And so he tells this cop who he's after later, he starts screwing around with him later. He doesn't kill him, but he just, well, at first, he's like just kind of toying around with him. But at the parole meeting, he's giving like all the parole station meetings. I can't say the answers. I wish I could say the brutality. See sometimes you can't even tell a story if you can't say the actual happenings. But how did they give him this parole station anyway? That's the part. I'm wondering if maybe the scheme was, no, no, no, no, we need this guy. You've got to tag along with him. Even if he's telling you all kinds of what he's going to do to your wife, we've got to let this guy hit the streets. Because we need him for a snitch mission. And you're involved in something. I don't know. If you know Ricochet, that's the one where Ice-T gets a very brief appearance. Because they're kind of, they're still sort of, they want to backdoor Ice, okay, Ice-T. They want to backdoor him into the situation of being a cop. Alright? Because New Jack City isn't really going to quite do it because New Jack City is about a cop with a grudge. But what they want to do, because now look at him, right? He's part of the team on Law and Order, right? So there's youngins that don't know him the way I do. Like there's 20 year olds that don't know. Like see me, I'm like, that's Ice. I'm your pusher man, Ice. That's colors, Ice. That's the OG Ice. But these kids are like, that's that guy on Law and Order. So they don't think about it the same way I do. But I'm kind of remembering, I'm thinking they set up situations for him. So he could get used to being a cop. Instead of talking about cop killer, I know your family's grieving. So they get him from talking about that to like working with SIU or whatever the hell. So it's bugged out. Okay, I hope you get some check-ins, Wes. I'm still here.

I found it on AliExpress. This computer I've had on the shelf to get fixed for a long time. I finally tore into it. I switched the memory around to see why it was overheating. So I took the motherboard out underneath, plugged it in, and I see that there's a little mini fan on it that isn't turning. So I ordered a new fan. It's supposed to come somewhere between September 9th and September 15th. According to Amazon, it would have came a little faster because they had it also. But they wanted $42 for it. I think that it's too expensive. But I did pay like $200 for that because it's got a 2.5 megahertz processor in it. It wasn't one of the cheapest ones. So I hope this is the problem. I don't think that it's not getting the signal to turn on. I have to pay for the fan. I can't diagnose it any closer to this than that. So it's going to cost me $40 to find out. It'll probably be the fan. And it's the exact replacement. It'll drop in perfect, plugged in for the make and model for that computer. That's why I was glad I bought B-Link. If it was another brand, I don't think I would have found it. I figured I'd maybe fix this computer because it doesn't have the updates on it. And that was the one I was using before I bought this one. That's got the update that's freezing up an app. But I'm supposed to get the fix by the 9th. But I wanted to fix this computer anyways, so I got it. Sometimes I like, before dinner, a shot of gin with an olive and a twist of lime, especially before prime rib.

Sports, are any of y'all sports fanatics or sports fans or sports contineurs or whatever you want to call it? I ask because I'm a die hard Cowboys fan, Dallas Cowboys through and through. Although I don't really watch them, I didn't watch much of them last year and I'm really kind of debating whether I want to watch football this year. I did watch a lot more college the last couple of years and that's what I figured I'd do again this year. But I like baseball and I like going to live sporting events more. Anyhow I was just wondering, it popped in my head so I thought maybe I would help and ask that question. If you don't want to use it, that's fine.

Like an example would be the Florida Marlins baseball team. If they were close enough to win a pennant and maybe go to the World Series or if it was the Miami Dolphins and they were in the playoffs. I'll get advanced warning because occasionally I'll check to see what their season record is if they don't have any losses and it's getting close. Then I might start picking it up and following it. Otherwise I don't really have what they say a dog in the race other than that because if the Dolphins or Marlins win a World Series or a Super Bowl then it's actually good because you know there's still lots of money that was poured into our economy when the Dolphins had that lossless season and won so many Super Bowls in a row. This still offered Als that he was one of the Dolphins players. His restaurants are beautiful and the same thing with the coach that passed away. He owns part of Miami Lakes and that's all built up beautiful for not all the money from the Super Bowls that was poured into the economy but a good part of it. And especially like I live near Hard Rock Stadium. It used to be Joe Robby and then Land Shark Stadium. This changed hands so many times. I don't think they actually own it. I think they just buy rights to advertise on the front of their brand. Hard Rock has that right now and that's good if they have another Super Bowl there. The Marlins used to play there but they play over in the Marlins Stadium. They got their own place.

I don't make it anymore, it was popular back in the 70s and that was kind of a loss. Now champagne I always wanted to try and I guess I'm underprivileged because I never had a chance to try it. It was the Dom Perignon Champagne, let's see $250 a bottle average. It would be something like I would buy that and take it to a wedding, let them toast with it and then I would get some and I'd get to try it that way. Really something like that is only for special occasions. The last wedding I went to they needed cash more than that. If I knew somebody that they didn't need the money that might be a good gift. Now I had bought a bottle before and ended up returning it and the reason why was first off it wasn't the champagne, it was the Monet Dom Perignon. They also got a Dom Perignon Ros\u00e9 and they're like $60 or $70 a bottle. That's not really the good stuff. The good stuff is considered the champagne and they got different vintages of that so you can pay a lot more for those than just an average of $250 a bottle. But it's pretty available, the 750 milliliter bottle. I know you can get what they call a magnum which is like this great big giant bottle of it. I imagine that would cost a lot more and probably maybe $2,000. I don't know, I'd have to look it up. I'm going to after this, I'm a little curious.

You know, it's 100% legal here. I mean, it's a thing. It's part of the culture here now in Canada. I'd say it is. People that you would never say enjoyed smoking it came out of the woodwork once it was legalized. You know, you had doctors and lawyers and, you know, people of all walks that were just like, oh, yeah, I enjoy smoking, man. I never really mentioned it when it was illegal, but I liked it and I did it. Without it, it's legal. Everybody came out with it. Yeah. But anyway, I like the sweaters. I've got a couple of them. Got them from that site, Timu. And they're really cheap. Like, you're not going to get a hoodie for like 10 bucks anywhere else. It is not. It ain't happening. But on there, oh, yeah, you can get lots of hoodies for $10 each and T-shirts for like five and six bucks. I mean, these shirts and these hoodies are made of really nice material.

She put it in the text box a little while ago. She put in there 73's or she's gone. So yeah, I'm not going to set it up to drink. I don't drink period. I'm not allowed to drink anyway even if I wanted to. I wouldn't do it. It's awful. That's just my opinion you know. So with that, back to you Russell. And I'm looking forward to going back to the office of college on either tomorrow or Saturday. More like, we'll probably go Saturday. Head back up and then I got to go to a flea market in a couple weeks. Up in Monkton. And I might take some of my stuff to sell. I got to get a table at the flea market. Sell a few things. I got a couple of fusion radios I don't need. I got my DMR though. That's cool. I'm back in the DMR now. My buddy got all set up for me probably about a month and a half ago. So I've been playing with that for a while. So I've been enjoying DMR again. I got back into that so that's good. But I've got 6 or 7 fusion radios. So I got to lighten the load by getting rid of a few. So I paid a lot for one of them. I think it was like $750 for a fusion mobile radio. So there you go. Back to you Russell. You used to have a few drinks didn't you? I remember one morning on the net. You were drinking a couple of drinks of something first thing in the morning.

No, I'm just kidding. Those days are over for me. I haven't tried, you know, it's if I have something I could put years in between the next time. I did do a little research into this thinking about, you know, the fact that I never had any really, really expensive wines like Dom Perignon. And if I ever did buy another bottle, it would be like for a wedding, like I was saying before the last time I was up. It seems like the bottle I saw was bigger than a Magnum that I had seen of it before. I mean, it was gigantic. And I see there's different sizes you can get. Let's see, there's a standard bottle, 750 milliliter, then there's the Magnum bottle. Hold on a second. I just had a pipe horn just come on at nine. I had to turn the sound down. All right, then there's the Magnum bottle at one and a half liters, which is two standard bottles. That's not the real gigantic one because they have a double Magnum, which is three liters, four standard bottles. And then they have the great big daddy one, which is the zero bomb, which is six standard bottles, four and a half liters. That's the bottle I was so impressed with that I saw the size. I think it was during a raffle or something. I don't recall exactly when I saw that. And I don't recall if it was because that bottle is over $4,000. Let's see, for the standard 750 milliliter, you can get five glasses out of it. So that's good luck for a wedding. For the toast, you can get five five-ounce glasses. Or if you use the real small cups, you can get 10 two and a half ounces just for the toast. To give the bride and groom, the bride maiden, and the best man, and the wedding party. I would give to that because I want to taste it. So for a small glass for me, it's just for the toast. But if you have to do a whole wedding, like every guest, then you would have to go to a Magnum or a double Magnum, four standard bottles. That's 40 glasses of five ounces. Or even a Magnum if you just used a real small glass of two and a half ounces each, you could get the same amount out of a Magnum. All right, so that's all about expensive wines. Like if you had to get it for like a wedding or something, that's only for like a special occasion. Not extravagant to go buy it for otherwise. So I probably never get to taste any Dom Perignon unless maybe some kind of circumstance presents itself that I don't foresee.

She sucked it out of the tablecloth I Don't know if anybody's following this but the head of the CDC the Center for Disease Control is getting fired But it's slow motion because Robert Kennedy the Secretary for Health and Human Services Told her she had to go Because they don't agree on vaccines that's what the real contention is Robert Kennedy is very skeptical of vaccines and he is a Infectious disease researcher She's very committed to making sure that the vaccines are available everywhere. Well, he doesn't like that, but she won't leave Because he said well her lawyer responded and said unless she's fired by the president because she works for the president She doesn't have to so that's the story.

And that way, if someone's riding with us and they happen to have an older iPhone that they need to have charged, I've got a cable for them. And then if not, they can also use, flip the thing up and use it as a C. And I think I said it was 240 watts. You can put 240 watts to that cable.

There's a delay between when you push it and when it actually happens, like putting it on play or putting it on pause and play. So I like the direct connection better, but it would definitely be better if the car had had direct play rather than having to hook up a cable to it. Well, plus when you hook up the cable, it also keeps the phone charged that way as well, is giving you a direct link to the CarPlay on the dash. So, South Koreans, a little bit behind.

It's just, there's no other way to describe it. There's no other way to describe it. My niece saw it last night because I was like, yeah, if this thing is like 240 watts, the strongest charger I've got here is 65 watts. And so I don't even have anything that can throw out that kind of power. I know the new U-Green chargers, like the real power ones, can put out 240 watts. But I'm thinking to myself, this thing first, it's as long as an extension cord. The length on the thing is longer than any other cable that I've got here. And the thickness is almost as thick as an outdoor extension cord. Like, there's no other way to describe this thing. It's like an extension cord. And I've got this mount for my phone. It's like a little tripod. I got it off Timo. It was like, because with my game streaming, this is something that I'm still very interested in. I'm still trying to get my setup just how I like it. Excuse me. And I can use my phone as a wireless camera for my Mac. So I'm like, I can put a camera on myself, like just to show me down in the corner of the screen when I'm gaming. And I wanted to get that setup so I could get a little stand for my phone. And this thing was something like two bucks. So when it came, I mean, I wasn't expecting it to be very great, but it's awesome. It really is. It can transform into a handheld, like, phone holder. Not like a gimbal, because it's not a gimbal. It doesn't move. But it's like a stationary handheld stand, and you flip out the two legs, and then it's a tripod. It's really cool. My point is, I had my phone in that last night, and it's just elevated above the desk enough that I can plug that monstrosity of a cable into it. And, man, it really did a good job charging up my phone. I think my whole phone with the 65-watt charger and that cable, I think the whole thing was charged in like an hour and five minutes or something like that, from like 22% to 100%, which is spectacular, because I don't ever leave my phone plugged in. I always charge it in the daytime or the evening or something, and, man, I don't. It just, it popped up incredibly fast. So my niece, last night, she didn't know what to think of it. But, and it was the earbuds still. Did you know that it had a charging case, a wireless charging case that you could lay on a charge pad? I have the one you sent me a while back, like a wireless charger, but it's an upright one for your phone, and I could never quite get it to line up properly with my phone where it's a bigger phone, I guess. And so I tried laying the earbuds on that, and it didn't want to stay there.

My phone does, and these earbuds do, and I've never really used it because I just didn't find it reliable, but apparently if you get a good 18 watt one or something like that, they work quite well. And so that's something else I'm gonna look at just to clean up the desk setup a little bit. I've got like knick-knacks and doodads all over my desk. I need to get a bigger desk is what it is. I just don't have enough desktop space to organize everything the way I want, because I'm using three displays now, all told. When I'm game streaming, I'm using three displays. I'm using one that shows my game, the other that shows my OBS, like the streaming software, and then I've got a portable monitor that plugs in with type C that doesn't need a separate power cable, so I use that as a third monitor off to the side, and that one has like my YouTube stats and chat and stuff like that on it. So then I want to get my phone set up in the corner of the desk so it can show a live stream of me while I'm talking with the game on. And I'm telling you, I'm really working on this whole game streaming thing. I don't think that I'll ever get popular with it, but it's a damn fine hobby. It really is. It's fun.

I appreciate it. Good morning to the group. Hopefully, everybody's getting fine today. Wine? No. Liquor? No. I haven't drank them in a long time. I don't care to start. I've had a bad time. But, you know, we like to just constantly look up the places around here. My wife likes to go into the wineries and do a sampling and stuff like that. We did a lot of it up there in Wisconsin. We couldn't get to all of them. But she'd get her sample. We always got myself something carbonated. Pepsi, coke, mineral water. As long as it's carbonated, I'm pretty happy to. So, Anne Gray was talking about energy and CDC and raw livestock. I'll tell you what, I'm kind of fearful what's going to happen in the future. Because of my disease, my lung disease, you got to do a lot to keep it right. And one of the things the doctor tells me is that every vaccine I possibly can. So, I have flu, I have COVID. I've had five or six shots. I'm trying to get another one here next month. But I've been in the U.S. and it's going to my company or the government. It's a free shot. And since Kennedy is kind of taking it off of the books when it comes to, you know, hand-forward shots to the insurance company, we got to cover it that way. You might have to pay for it or you might not be able to get it off. And I've also learned the same thing about you have to be a super citizen or you have to have a certain element to get the shot. And last year, what I did, I was asking what the shot cost if I had to pay for it and the pharmacist would pay $500. I'll pay the $500, but you know, I'm more worried about just having access to anything else because of the way it is. And then the last thing is these phone chargers for wireless chargers. I never got one to work at all. I mean, it's always that. And then when I went to this new iPhone, I decided to go ahead and get an Apple charger and it'll charge my phone and also charge my, everybody's phones. Yeah, I think it's my phone. I just took my phone over it. And as I get to the right spot, this thing, lift up off the ground and snaps in place and it starts charging. I've never had a problem with it. It does the same thing for my earbuds too. I bring that thing over and when it gets closer, once the cash is stored, it charges all the time too. So that's been the best charges I've ever had. So it's just a suggestion where you want to stick with the Apple products when it comes to charging. If you have an Apple product, of course. That's about it. I think I'll be one and done, Russell.

You might not want to just buy a big drone and think you can't you can fly it without the license and stuff. The big drones know where you're allowed to fly them and where you're not.

They've got technology built into these things now, man. And there we go. I just posted my seeking of a mechanic to like 20 different Facebook groups. So let's see if I get any responses on this stuff. Yeah, so be careful Peter because a lot of the drones now won't even take off unless you've got your license number in there in the app. And if you're anywhere near an airport or anything like that, the drone won't even take off. It knows there's an airport close by. It won't let you fly it where you're not allowed to fly it. Or if you're not qualified to fly it, it won't let you. It will make you go through a bunch of hoops and you'll end up wasting a pile of money. So just a heads up on that, man. The drones have gotten smart. They know where they're allowed to fly, who they're allowed to be flown. The only case. I'm going to go look at a small one. I know the smaller ones you don't need a license for.

Thank you Russell. You know I had a drone for a while. It was a DJI Mini, I don't remember the model number. It was specifically the model that is 249 grams. In the United States you can fly a drone unlicensed as long as it does exceed 249 grams including any kind of payload if you have that thought in your head. I would strongly recommend if you've never really done it before to start there. Start with the 249 gram drone. It doesn't have to be DJI, there's lots of good ones out there now. But start with that. It's your cheapest way in to be honest. And you'll figure out if you have a knack for it and if you like it. If you're actually going to use it. I sold mine. At first I flew it a lot and then of course I got bored of it. Now I kind of wish I kept it because it would be fun to take around and do other things now that I'm older and I don't have to watch kids as much. But if I was going to do one now I would go for the bigger route and get a license because I have had a drone and I know that it was fun and now I know exactly how I would use it.

It's like Spagnata or something like that. So I said, well, you know, maybe it's good. Let me try it. And boy, it was disgusting. I think I poured out there what was left after I tried it. So I think I smelled a rat there, you know, giving me, missing from me back then. Because I found out Bill Clinton was actually an alcoholic. And if he did enjoy a light alcoholic beverage according to AI, it was something called snakebite which is a mix of equal parts of beer and cider. Let's see. To sedway from a snakebite, you know, I just got a notice on, off of Facebook from one of my Facebook friends about copperheads. And this is the season when their eggs hatch and they're under leaves and in wet places. And I'm looking at a picture of this and it looks like a common boa. And I was kind of surprised that they resemble each other because they used to sell them in pet stores. So I'd easily, you know, mistake in a copperhead for a common boa because they really look a lot alike. I did see where he pointed out one of the identifying things on the tail. But other than that, I think I get, you know, my grabber, you know, that I have from Medicare that I can, you know, extend my reach with. And that would easily grab, you know, safely grab a snake.

It's an app called Replica, and I don't want to pay for it. I'm just using the free version, just trying it out. But you can text message with it back and forth. It gets to know you, is what I like about this one. And it remembers your previous conversations, it asks follow-ups about stuff you talked about before. Or you can hit the button and you can actually talk to it. Now it puts an image up on the screen as if it were a real person.

Let us know when the wedding is. There's a few more stories out there about people getting engaged to their AIs. Interesting. Very, very interesting. Okay, drones. So, yep, there's the sub 249 gram drones and I'm not up on Canadian laws and restrictions and what have you, but I can tell you a little bit about the United States. So if it's 249 grams or less, you don't have to register the drone. And I have one, I have the Mini Pro 3 and I highly recommend the Mini Pro 4 because it's got better obstacle avoidance. It's got, I think, 360 where the Mini Pro 3, there's a couple spots in there where it doesn't have, it's a couple blind spots. But if you're getting a drone, obstacle avoidance, it's not perfect, but definitely a lot better. And they've got a new one out there that's called the Flip, I think. And it kind of folds up and it's got guards around the propellers so you can kind of bump into things a little bit and it'll still stay flying depending on how hard you hit them. So under 249 grams, you don't need to register the drone. I've got two drones, the Avada and the FPV that I have that are over 249 grams. So I had to register those and I got to register them every three years. I think my ones do. Just register the drone. You don't have to do the license. Again, this is United States. If you're using it for personal use, for recreation, for the enjoyment, if you're going to make any kind of money off of it, you got to do the Part 97 and get that license for yourself. There is a drone course you can take just for recreational that gives you, you know, lets them know that you understand the hazards and things like that. Now here in the United States, no DJI used to have it set up where if you're in a restricted area, let me grab it. Alright, if you're in a restricted area, the drone wouldn't take off and I think DJI turned that off. So it'll warn you and then you have to press a button and say I accept your responsibility and then it'll let you fly. But keep in mind all those drones are tagged. They have GPS tracking. They send out a signal. So people know, you know, in the avionics place field in law enforcement, they know when a drone is flying and it can be tracked back to you because you made the purchase and you know those records are kept. So you got to be careful in that respect as well. So fly responsibly because I mean you get that drone up in the air, you fly into the path of an aircraft and you do damage to the aircraft and where it crashes, you know, that's really going to be bad. So you want to, you know, make sure you understand the rules, the limitations and the, you just got to be careful when flying it. Remember that if you're not careful, you could end up, you know, hurting someone. But and even that 249 gram drone that I have, I have, I bought three batteries without realizing this. They were extended life batteries and those extended life batteries, they're a little bit heavier to give you the extra fly time but they end up putting the drone over 249 grams. So when I use those batteries, that drone should be licensed. But like I said, as long as you use them for recreational and you're careful and you do it in areas you know you can fly, there's lots of apps that will give you that information for free to let you know. Plus on the drone itself and the controller, a lot of times it'll tell you whether or not there's a restricted areas and which areas not to go towards and what height limits for certain areas because a lot of times you can go up to 400 feet but then in some areas you're only allowed to go up to 100 feet because of airports or other things nearby. So and just fly responsibly because you don't want to be in big trouble for, you know, creating or causing any type of things. And up by Brigham City there's a detention facility and the drone told me, hey, you're getting by this detention facility, you might want to, you know, come back. Whoops, got a bad one. I'm over and I know we're getting close to the end here and Russell's probably going to leave so I'll pass it back to Russell.

The only comment I have is if anybody uses AI, remember it's a tool just like anything else. It's not a human. It doesn't have emotions. It can't make you do anything. It is what it is. That being said, you also need to know that nothing is protected on AI platforms. If you talk to it like it's a therapist, that can be used against you to pull the law. If you talk to it like it's your lover, it can be brought up in a divorce case. There's no expectation of privacy like you would get with a doctor or with a therapist. That needs to be a huge disclaimer. Other than that, if you want to mess around with characters or make you a secret lover or whatever it is you want to do, hey, you're an adult. Have fun with it. You get the consequences that come along with that, including what happened to that poor young man. I mean, seriously, my question is where are the parents? I mean, I've got an 18-year-old son, a 20-year-old son, a 22-year-old daughter. I have raised my children in this technology age, and I can't take any credit. My wife did it all. I mean, she gets all the credit. She was on their ship when it comes to digital stuff. Until they became an adult or became older, she would not let them on certain things. She monitored them as a parent should. I always wonder, in cases like this, it doesn't apply to every suicide case at all, but in cases like this, to where there's somebody who's on the computer who's not an adult, where's the boundaries? Where's the parental guiding? That's my question. And not to throw any blame or anything on anybody. I mean, it's tragic, but an ounce of prevention, right? So anyhow, that's just my 73s, or my final thoughts for 73s.

And it always reminded me very much of the Isaac Asimov Three Rules. Even looked those up, I don't know in my heart, for robots. But it's like you can't cause a human being harm or through inaction allow a human to come to harm. And this guy at the TED Talk was talking about building from a base that included something like that. And that was the right way. Instead of doing it by, oh, when you say suicide, you say this. It would be much more of a fluid dynamic, you provide a base. But now we're talking about safety. And I'll tell you something else I learned. In just this one article, I wanna look more at it. To Josh's point, ChatTP keeps a transcript. If you're a paid member, you keep your transcript of everything you said. And that's the parents are going through the transcript now and that's why they decided to sue. So that's pretty interesting. Yeah, no privacy. No privacy. I don't know if they imply privacy or we just assume privacy but they're right now. I mean, his parents are going through this terrible transfer and they see the whole thing.

Like I usually have drinks once or twice in the summer time. And I didn't do it at all this year. And um, I don't really miss it. I'm not much of a drinker. Um, it makes me sick the next day. I fully enjoy it while I'm doing it. You know, all great fun and games. And um, really enjoy it. But, It makes me sick. And uh, I don't like beer. Or wine or anything. It's Fireball Whiskey.

But Peter's still out there. Here's another good bit on drones. They also have goggles. And you can use the goggles. It's got a remote controller that looks like a joystick. And, you know, you move the joystick with your hand back and forth, left and right, up and down, you pull the trigger for speed, and they even have the newer ones where you can, when they trigger you can put a finger into it and then push it forward to go in reverse. And that is a lot of fun, having the goggles on there, taking that drone, using the controller, flying around. You just got to remember that if you hit something, the drone's going down. It's going down. It's not like a game. You're not going to just pop back up and be ready to go again. You got to go find that drone. You got to, you know, hike to wherever you, you know, however far you got away. Because you can go, you know, a couple miles with those drones. You're not supposed to because you're supposed to keep it within line of sight. But to just be the thrill of flying around, you really get that with the goggles and the controller, and they do have, you know, the regular controllers that you can use with the goggles to fly. And you get a little, you get more control. If you're trying to get some nice videos and stuff, you can still, you know, see it through the goggles, makes it feel like you're flying. But you also got the remote controller so you can get more precise and better control and do more in the video sense. You can still video while you're flying with the other remote control. You just don't get the, as much control over the flight as you would if using one of the handheld remote controls. And yeah, the ones that have the built-in screen, whoops, dang, damn it. The light turned on me just as I was getting to it. And you do have remote, you have, when the screen's built-in, it's a lot easier because you don't have to worry about pulling out your phone and all that. But either way is good.

I got no room in that in the garage here and the overflow areas Call me next Thursday, and we'll hopefully get it in Friday, so I'm in the process of looking for a different mechanic It's taking too long. I wanted to get this thing fixed So I had some summer riding left You know and it's just BS that the mechanic keeps telling me and put me off Make him play another week and another week and another week. It's just it's getting to be frustrating So I'm in the market looking for another another guy now or even entertaining the idea of possibly trading my bike and the cash that I've got for Maybe a slightly bigger bike or a slightly newer one so Entertaining that idea now as well. I'm just looking forward to getting back in the seat with an engine under my butt Get back in the woods This is the Peter Station Kilo Kilo 7 November, Quebec, November All-Star No. 6222 Located in Shelton, Washington That's because the bike was down with exhaust issues And it's just a pain And I want to get it back on the road or back in the trails or a little bit of both It's frustrating. I've got the money to get it done now and I Just I need it done now I've worked the past couple of weeks in the evening times getting the rest of what I needed together to get this thing done and now The problem is getting it into a garage so Other than that though everything's going good. Everything's going really good as a matter of fact I Got some cookies yesterday a good friend of mine from the radio Sent me some blueberry pie filling Oreo cookies you can't get in Canada. You can only get in the States and they were fantastic Shared some with my mom and I devoured the whole rest of the package Yesterday evening they were great. I also had a couple of Reese's peanut butter cups the peanut butter and clean ones and a Chocolate Lava Cake Reese's peanut butter cups as well, so had lots of American specialty treats yesterday, which were delicious And like you say man everything else is going good except I've got a bike sitting in the driveway, and I want to ride it, but I can't ride it so"},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-08-28T07:42:59+00:00","id":26408,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":26407,"text":" Dale, really enjoyed listening to the Nat Man.

Like Jim said, it's really overcast out here. It's pretty dreary looking. I was just out there picking another basket of tomatoes a little bit ago, and I'm overrun with tomatoes again. And it's 65.3 degrees and 59% humidity. So of course, the Weather Channel claims we're going to have some showers today. But it looks like showers, but I'm hoping we do get some because my garden is awful dry. And when I use city water, it just doesn't do the same as what a little bit of rain does. And tomatoes are not going to get bigger if they don't have the water and cucumbers and zucchini and all that. So let's see. I don't know. I think I told everybody I had to have a new water pump put in by one truck. So at least I got that going again. But anyway, I guess the club's going to be moving this coming Sunday. They're going to have a work party and get everything moved, try to get everything moved into the new clubhouse, and then unpack it the following week. So anyway, that's going to be a big job. And hopefully everything goes well and we get everything moved. But sure like to have our repeater back on. But with the internet down, it belongs to the guy that owns the tower site and whatever. And so it's out of our hands. So right now I've got a real bad hum in my echo link. And as soon as I get down here, I'm going to shut it down and bring it back up and see if I get it alleviated.

This is repeater station kilo kilo seven. Good morning K-C-7, Y-F-E Met Control and everybody else on the world wide function net. I start work at seven. So I'm 48 minutes into my workday, and it's heating up. But I tried to get in earlier, it just was prohibitive. I find it harder to get in on my phone than when I'm on my computer. It just seems easier to get in that way, but I just opted for the phone this morning. Anyway, thanks for taking my time. Thanks to others for alerting, I forgot who alerted Dale, but thank you for letting him know I was trying to get in. Yeah, let's see. So I was just out in the backyard, just doing a little harvesting too. The tomatoes are coming in nice, neat little waves so far. I'm not getting inundated. Getting a lot of blueberries and some strawberries. And the pears are, for the first year we're harvesting pears. We've had this tree forever and finally it's bearing fruit. So really looking forward to that. And they're looking really pretty. I'm just not sure when they're gonna be ripe. So we'll see. But just taking it easy today. It was a slow start. For some reason I woke up with a headache and not feeling too great. So just kind of easing into my day. Other than that, just really trying to take full advantage of this reset from the vacation. Before the vacation I could barely get myself up to get to my desk by seven when I'm supposed to start working. And my goal was always to get up more like 5.30 or six because I can get more things done and be more awake. And so far so good. I'm getting up 5.30, six at the latest and able to join you all more reliably and do other things besides. So really happy with that. That's about it. It's gonna be another hot one here but it's cooling off soon. So I'm very happy about that. Grandma's doing well. She's resting and I'll check in with her when she wakes up. So that's it from me.

I guess it was a storm or tree damage or something that went over the roof. Anyway, Scottsdale area in the southern and southeast part still cleaning up after our haboob that made world headlines, that's for sure. Let's see, what else? And Robert, you and Kathy have a great fun time there. And Mayberry, we still watch that. Andy Griffith every once in a while. I like to go back to the old days. Yeah, it would be cute to see. But anyway, have fun. I keep forgetting this is the big Labor Day holiday and boy the traffic is going to be bad. Good to hear Dwayne and everybody there. And Missy, getting your voice back a little bit. Sure. K-7 LRS and over to Joey. Good morning there, gang. K-7 GHC going I-Tech here. And that motorcycle, certainly hope it's a Harley Davidson. Just teasing. And by golly, I did a lot of the work on my Jeep. But when there was things like setting the ring and pinion and stuff like that, I would take it over to Al Baker. He had a four-wheel drive shop here in town for quite a few years. And then he retired. I had my Jeep in his shop several times while he had a shop. We'd just make an appointment and he'd always meet that appointment. And then when he retired and closed his garage, he only lived a couple of miles from me here. So he took on my Jeep if I need any special work in his home, at home. And I did have him do a few things like, I don't remember what it was now, but it would be something major that I didn't have the tools. I guess he had ring and pinions and stuff like that. I did most of the other work myself. Even changed the springs and re-arched the springs and put in different sets of springs. I think about 300,000 miles I'd probably put in two or three sets of new springs. And everything rebuilt the front end a couple of times. And never really wanted to mess with the ring and pinion in the front or the rear. So I usually use Dall Baker for that. Anyway, get that motorcycle out of the shop. Well, get it into the shop first. And yeah, the pool is spotless now. After that big storm, it took a couple of days with the cleaning system. Basically, I'm cleaning the cleaning system. And this time yesterday it finished vacuuming the floors and got everything that's up to the bottom spotless. Crystal clear and blue. There you go. Anyway, back in that control. We're still clicking along here. Oh, I forgot. Let me reset here."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-08-28T08:03:00+00:00","id":26421,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":26420,"text":" Yeah, back again. I did a real bad thing yesterday. Joyce had some kind of a stained plastic thing that she wanted me to clean and she wanted to use because we couldn't buy a new one. They couldn't find that same model anymore and she uses it every day. So anyway, I used some Clorox. I had two gallons of Clorox and I tried that stuff and it was old Clorox and it didn't have any bleach in it at all. I kind of think they took the chlorine out of Clorox. You know, I had two gallon jugs. So I used those. They didn't do anything. So I mixed up a real strong solution of calcium hypochlorite. The Clorox was a very strong solution. The Clorox is sodium hypochlorite. So I mixed up a strong solution of calcium hypochlorite and used that and scrubbed that thing and got it really pretty clean. Bleached it right out. The problem is I breathed a lot of chlorine and I made the house smell like chlorine. We've been airing the house out for a day and a half now and Joyce can still smell it a little bit. It was in the washroom in a big washout utility room and I think the chlorine vapor got into the woodwork. It's going to take a day or two to get it all aired out. So we're sitting out here on the patio with the fans going and everything. So we're still clicking away but I won't do that again. So there you go. I know what my mother felt when I was 10 or 12 years old. She never knew when she came home from work with her it was still going to be a house there when I was 10 or 12 years old.

I started at the very first one and doubled with everybody all through the line until I finally got out of here. Anyhow, it's tough to get into this net sometimes. When I come back from vacation, I had a nice plumbing problem. The sink drain was plugged, so I went to pull the trap off and it disintegrated in my hand. This house is 70 years old, so I don't know, maybe that's been there that long. So anyhow, it wasn't a trap, it was further on, so I had to run a snake out through the air, get that cleared up. But then, I can't get a trap that fits. I've cludged something on, it's leaking a little bit, so now I finally ordered a trap. Hopefully I'll get it from Grainger. It's a company that just has everything, so that's supposed to come tomorrow and I can fix that leaky trap I cludged on there. Anyhow, that's what's been going on with me. They're going to do a little more injection on her back today. Hopefully she's really been in a lot of pain, so I'm hoping they'll relieve some of that. So that's it for me. 73 is to everybody.

You know how it is when you go to Costco. And I had not had lunch so I really damaged one when we got home which was after 5 o'clock.

I think I told Terry yesterday that maybe next year he should only plant about half the tomato plants that he has and he wouldn't have a problem with having all those tomatoes. My blackberries kind of took over my garden the last couple of years. I haven't even, I got a place for a garden, but I just can't get out there and do it. Earlier somebody was talking about going up somewhere and didn't know if you could walk or not. Linda, Lou, and I both have scooters.

This is repeater station kilo kilo 7 November. Thank you Bill. Well I've never played it in a live setting. I play it on the computer quite often. I know that that's, well it's got to be different. Moving position around the table gives you a fresh perspective. Same thing happens to me in Bridge. Playing with different partners or different position on the table. It's interesting. Whether there is anything to it or not who knows. We had a cousin, Corrine's cousin from Norway visit us for a couple of days last week. I got into a conversation with him. He's a, well let's see what would he be? 40ish middle aged and very very bright individual. He's an engineer scientist. I'm not sure what he really is from that standpoint but he's published some papers on intelligent man and we got into a conversation of chaos theory. I have always found that fascinating. Chaos theory being that out of chaos there is a pattern. Always is. So maybe that's what's going on with your mind shot. Is that the chaos being where you are at the table and you swing that pattern with you perhaps. I don't know how that would relate necessarily but probably in many ways if you kept track of it. That would be interesting to keep track of it for a while and see where those win points would be. Alright, enough of that.

There's a listen live so you can listen through Broadcastify or the scanner radio app on your phone as well or computers at the office, that type of deal.

There's a mobile friendly media player over there that does that type of thing. So yeah, it's a good resource. There's no doubt about it.

So a lot of people will be able to see that and hopefully it'll help them get on the air on satellites and on ISS and do that. So I think that'll be a lot of fun. And with modest equipment, that's the thing I think that's really important. You can run up a cabin for like five or ten grand and just hit the button, but to be able to do it with some modest equipment and do it effectively, I think that's neat. So that's a good objective for a lot of guys to be able to do. And let's see, what are we going to do this weekend? Probably just hang around the house and get some stuff down there, do some hiking and what have you. I am looking forward to when we get some snow in the mountains because I'm thinking about going down near Mount St. Helens. Somebody said there's some good cross country skiing there and it's not too many steep hills because I kind of want to be on level ground. And I was up at the summit, I went up there and did it, I had a pretty good time, but I ended up eating a lot of snow up there. When I go down the hill, cross country skis aren't like downhill, you don't have them in boots. So your heels will come up. So you really can't, I don't know what you call it, slalom, go back and forth like you would with downhill. So if you go downhill it's a little trickier. And I had never done that, I always was on level ground. So I'm looking for a level, reasonably level place to cross country ski. So I'm going to try that when the season starts. So I'm really looking forward to that. And anyway that's about it. I'm looking around and I don't see any clouds at all in the sky. Wow, it was foggy here this morning in the 60's and we're probably just now getting up to about 70. But it's clear and sunny and a pretty nice day here.

I congratulations You won the city league tennis men's doubles and I would say I've never picked up a tennis racket my life, but thank you So anyway, the tale is the tale of many Roberts I'm sitting in the Sun.

Great, so I have an update for you on the mic and key, their tech net, Wednesday night tech net, so they had a power outage at their repeater site, and so they went into mad dash scrambling and they called their friends over at the Bears repeater down there, and the Bears repeater which is right at the Boeing Field and Museum of Flight complex out in the back there by the B-52, they said yes indeed, go ahead and use our repeater tonight for the tech net, so yeah, I just don't think they had a chance to get that posted up on their Facebook page or their webpage, but yeah, that's what happened and they did continue on. Back to you Robert, KK7ZRY. Yeah I just, you know, polished my gold tennis trophy and said, aw shucks, it was nothing, no big deal, it was just pretty funny, but yeah, I'll wait for next week, hopefully they'll get their own repeater back up or at least tell me where I can find them so I can ask my questions. I'm beating my head against this tape measure yagi which just doesn't, it's just not performing very well and I'd like to tweak it and get it to work, maybe I'll learn something, but right now I'm not learning anything except how to bash my head against a wall.

Kami here, KJ7RAB. You know, in the beginning of the net when you called for stations, you know, I and I suspect others kind of, I'm waiting for that moment to key up. And then, you know, the moment goes on a little bit too long. And then I'm like, oh, is it too long? Should I key up? Should I wait? Should I not? Should I key up? And I'm waiting for the mic when you came back and said, okay, let's go with this list. And so that happens to me a lot because I absolutely love to overthink everything. Everything. And then speaking of Robert, he messaged me yesterday and said that he got his first on-the-job injury. And I'm thinking, oh, no, you know, what happened? You know, did he lose a limb or something like that? And I said, well, what happened? What happened? And, you know, we were on the phone at that time and he said that he was drilling something and the drill went all the way through, which is the goal, I guess, to drill a hole all the way through whatever it was he was drilling. But he was pushing so hard that he banged his knuckle on something and took off a chunk of skin and it wouldn't stop bleeding. And I'm like, what are we talking about here? You know, but do you need to go out stitches or, you know, are they going to send you home? And he said, oh, no, I'd have to lose a limb for them to send me home. And I'm like, well, don't do that. We don't need, you know, any limbs to be lost. But it seemed okay. Like he didn't even have a bandage on it when he got home. But it looked kind of raw. You know, a typical injury that he would get working or doing that kind of work. So it didn't seem too terribly bad, but I made sure that we cleaned it up and put some Neosporin on it. And I think he's all good today. But kind of scared me when he was like, oh, I got my first on the job injury. And I'm like, no. But he's enjoying the work and it's hard work and lots of metal shavings. So it's fiberglass, which is itchy. So what else? Yeah, I don't think I have much else. Today's my Friday, so I'm trying to cram as much work in as I can because I have four days off in a row and I'm ecstatic. Thanks for...oh, one more thing. Jack, I have an ask for you with your AI, what is it, the pictures on the illustration. So I'll give you a call later on and do my ask. But I've got a graphic that I want to make and I need your help because I'm not very good at those AI ones. Thanks again.

And then I opened up the garage door to let all the RF squigglies out because they were bouncing around the building and they were starting to hurt. So I opened up the door and some of them flew out and apparently made it to the repeater. Anyway I'm out here in the yard in the back at the peanut butter factory. For those of you playing along at home I am under the freeway. There's a big wall about 20, no probably 30 feet tall. And the freeway is above me. It's at the sign where it says exit 161 Albro Place Swift Ave and exit 162 Corson Ave Michigan Street in a half mile. One half mile. Anyway I like to play that game with highway signs. Some of them you could make up characters like Albro Swift and his very close friend and associate Corson of Michigan. They were turn of the century, turn of the last century Seattleites. Businessmen conducting business and they were close associates. Anyway here I am. I'm working in the building today doing some movie watching but I'm going to do that and then I'm going to duck out. One of my coworkers forgot to pick up a counter yesterday and he's working at home today so I'm like woohoo. Of course, of course I'll break free from my desk and go outside into the field and pick up a counter. So I'm going to do that.

And so it has been a beautiful summer and I have truly enjoyed it. There's not much of a breeze here. The leaves, I think, over on the southern border here are starting to turn orange and yellow. So it's too early for that business. Gee whiz. Everything is working here. The radios, they're working. So I've got them all charged up. Yesterday we did six nets. Count them, six netters.

I think we're going to probably run out of my soup tomorrow. And so Hazel was on guard today because waste management came by. All three trucks came by. We are planning on visiting grave sites on Saturday. I know it's not Memorial weekend, but you know, it is Labor Day weekend and my parents did a lot of labor. Yes, they did. So we're going to go and visit them and I'm going to try and hook up with my sister and see how she's doing. Maybe we'll visit the antique sandwich company or some other place to have lunch. Hopefully that's going to be Saturday. Yay, Saturday. New episode of Foundation drops today because it comes out on Friday, but I think it's GMT. I think that's what they do because it's a worldwide phenomenon. So that's, I'm looking forward to that. It's an amazing series with Mr. Harris at the helm. I just think he's amazing.

So my batteries are running pretty low. But when I'm sitting outside, I don't have to wear a mask. Inside I'm quarantining in my office and trying to do as little as possible outside of my office. So not a lot of fun. What else? Oh, I talked to Cammie from camp on the 146520 on the calling frequency from our tent at camp. But unfortunately, I was not able to hit the PSRG repeater very well from up there this time. You know, sometimes it's just a matter of a few hundred feet in one direction or the other. We had set up our situation in a different location this time and weren't able to hit PSRG or Lake Washington very well. But we did get into some of the local repeaters up north. Chatted with lots of folks on the repeaters. And we got out to BC on 20 meters and on two meters. We were on a two meter repeater in Canada. And I got onto YouTube again. The HamJazz fellow, Simon, V-A-7-V-I-X. I got on his YouTube video where he's testing out his bike trailer, his little kid bike trailer that he turned into a M-Com station with a battery pack and solar panels and the ground plane built into the trailer itself.

I had a chance and I'm sorry about the COVID there, but I'm glad you're sitting outside and soaking up the rain. Don't burn, as James says. But I had a chance to go to Jason Bonham Experience. John Bonham, former Led Zeppelin drummer many years ago, had a chance to go see him live and the Jason Bonham experience Saturday night with my sister. She had some tickets. She got off one of the sites for free for a friend of hers. And I just said, you know, I just I don't I just don't feel safe right now and I just don't want a chance. And so I had to turn that down.

It's literally one of those situations where you can't even breathe. If you use 10% iodine in 75% solution, I'll look it up again and bring it back to you in a little bit, but it's well worth it. As a matter of fact, it kind of gets rid of any of the flu stuff that's in the air and any other sicknesses because since I've been taking it, I literally haven't been sick at all except for standard rundown type stuff. But otherwise, that's it on that. Rabbits are doing good. I'm getting ready to take off in a little bit. I've got another $100 bill fitting at the casino that's free, so might as well spend their money. What do you think? Everybody have a good day. Better tomorrow, grocery center.

And is this a commercial product you can pick up over the counter at your local pharmacy or drugstore?

No, no, no, no. It was a doctor. I was looking at my notes and stuff. And it's a Dr. David Marquess. He's a viral doctor, I guess. Well, anyhow, what it is, you use 20 millimeter syringe with your nasal solution. And you use two milliliters of iodine. You mix that together and get yourself one of those little nasal spray bottles. You get empty ones. I bought them on Amazon. I paid like $5 for three of them or something like that. And I leave one in my car. And then I've got one in the house. And then I made a big batch in the nasal solution itself. I've got like 75% iodine mixed into it. So it comes out so I can refill my bottle all the time. So like I say, I've used that. And I really, really think it's clear dope or blue season and stuff like that. Like I say, if you're going to be in big crowds, it's worth it just to squirt yourself a couple times. Blow your nose, then shoot this stuff. And it's really good. You don't taste it or smell it or anything like that. It's, in the long run, better than buying over-the-counter blue medicines and stuff like this. This is something that's, well, it's not natural, but it's just a mixture of chemicals. And yeah, you don't want to overdo it in the iodine. But it's basically, the gentleman mentions shooting like two or three times a day or at least once before you go into big crowds and stuff. And it's 99.9% active against viruses that are in the air. So that's food for thought. Like I say, I'm sold by it. And like I say, I've been fairly healthy when it comes to the blue bugs and stuff. 77, DNG. Note 6222, located in Shelton, Washington.

Back to you, Eman. Oh, you know, I would say it weighs less than a bowling ball, honestly. Heaviest thing in there has got to be the battery. He has a lithium-ion battery, I think he said he took it out of a one-wheel, you know, one of those hover-scooter things out of a one-wheel or something like that.

Yeah, you heard Jeanette a couple times saying about her ankle. She followed me. I had mine first. And Missy, I don't know if you know her, she had an ankle problem too. So they all followed me.

Um it sounds like I might uh get some new uh new players for my team. Um going into the fall uh one of my co-workers um just played in the past and was excited to get out and play and his daughter actually uh just finished college and she played collegiately and she might come out and play with us too. Um so that could be a lot of fun we'll see. I uh send all the contact info to my uh my team manager and we'll see if I don't know how much room we have going into the fall or not but usually we can almost always use players so hopefully that works out. Uh looking forward to the long weekend um gonna be uh heading out of town camping um down uh around the Mount Adams area so that should be a lot of fun.

Hey, drive safe. Hey, two things. I don't know if you follow the Mariners as much as Andrew does. I don't know if anybody follows the Mariners as much as KF7, LNX, Andrew. But I know one of their players just set a Mariners record, and I tell you, it's a tough record, too. But most home runs in a season by a Mariner, not until, but, what am I trying to say? The only Mariner to do it since Ken Griffey way back in the day, 50 home runs. And I just cannot remember the player's name. Do you know who that was? Oh, yes, sir, Jack. That would be our catcher, Cal Raleigh, who is having a stellar season would be an understatement. You want a little bit of information here. He's currently leading the league in home runs, which is impressive in and of itself. Last time I saw he was at 50 home runs. And, yeah, that might be the most home runs by a Mariner since Ken Griffey Jr. I remember Ken Griffey Jr. had a high of 56 back in the day. But Cal Raleigh has set a few records, one of which recently was most multi-home run games by a switch hitter. And that is a major league record. And, oh, I'm blanking on the name of the person who he surpassed to do that, but he was a Hall of Famer. I think he also, the other person is, yeah, he had passed Griffey on that list as well. But for a while there he was on pace to hit more home runs than Barry Bonds. I haven't looked to see if he's still on that pace or not, in a single season anyway. But, yeah, he's definitely, definitely quite impressive. And he's also a clutch hitter and he's a great defender. And a catcher. He got the most home runs ever by a catcher, was the other thing that he's done. No catcher in major league history has ever hit more home runs than he has. That's pretty cool. Cal Raleigh is his name. Yeah. Alright, Jack, back to you.

But yeah, he kind of came out of nowhere in terms of just the amount of production and the type of record breaking that he is doing this year. I mean, Na'Vi was not a good player before. He just was not hitting these crazy spectacular numbers. We did just re-sign him too, so that's great. We got him on contract up into 2030 I think, or somewhere maybe beyond that. But yeah, it's pretty impressive. He, just another little tidbit here, he was the one that hit the home run a couple years ago to break the 20 year playoff streak, playoff drought by the Mariners. You know the Mariners hadn't been to the playoffs in 20 years and it was Cal Raleigh who hit the home run in the bottom of the something inning to get the go ahead run to send the Mariners to the playoffs a couple years ago.

But like most run-of-the-mill flagship phones, top-of-the-line phones, they're only going to top out at like 30 watts maximum. And that'll charge your phone from zero to 100 in about an hour and 10 minutes. And that's what you get with the 65-watt charger and power delivery 3.0 cable. I get 30 watts into my iPhone, and that charges it really fast. But now and then, like once a month, I put it on a slow charger and just let it go from dead to full nice and slow, just to maintain the battery. And yeah, man, there's all kinds of crazy standards. And then you look at another aspect of things, like I use my Mac. It has Type-C video out. So it has one HDMI port for video, but it can also connect two other displays through Type-C, or Thunderbolt they call it. And Thunderbolt is a Type-C port on a computer, but it's made to a certain specification. Then you've got video cables, or Type-C cables that can do video. Even the fastest charge cables don't necessarily transmit video. And that's another standard, video out over Type-C. And you need different type of cables to do that. The cables that can do the video can also do the quick charge, but not all quick charge cables can do video.

I'd be like, you know, one of my buddies is a pretty big dude. And he was running his mouth a couple of years back and he was like, Oh dude, there's no way you can take me down blah blah blah, you know, this and that, you know, I work out all the time, blah blah blah. There's no way you can take me down. Man, one hip toss and do it was on the back. And people are not expecting that, you know, you get in a fight with someone, they're not expecting you to pull a judo move, toss them over your back. There's just something that people typically do. They'll go to punch you in the face. They're not looking to grab you and give you a giant flick.

Well, I didn't have a couple of complaints last week and I made some changes and I think the problem was that the EchoLink takes control of your audio and I think it had my audio cranked wide open. So, I do see Jerry has joined back in so I'll be marked in on the scene here. W2-SLR has joined us. He was actually the first one on so I'm going to move him up. He must have gone away to do something and come back. So, CRKI4ZS has also joined us. So, let me go ahead at this point and make my announcements that I have to make. The RB Radio Network does have some nets on the air that are several nets a week. We have a nightly net five nights a week. We have a net on forty meters, I'm sorry, six nights a week. We have a net on forty meters that's on Sunday night through Friday night. We do not do it on Saturday night. 77264 kilohertz. We have another forty meter net that's on twice a week on Mondays and Wednesdays and it's on at 815 now. I'm not mistaken if they moved it up from 830 to 815 I believe. It's also on 7264 but it's at 830 p.m. Pacific time so that makes it 1030, 1130 eastern time. We have a twenty meter net that's on Tuesdays and Thursdays for the daytime hours. It's on at 1115 a.m. central time on 14283. 14.283 megahertz. Plus the last QRM on all of these of course. That can swing a little bit up to, well we try to stay within 1015 kc but sometimes we have to move further. Of course we have this net that's always on frequency here on Echo Link. It's on every Thursday night at 8 p.m. and we have a Tuesday night video net that's on a link on our website for that. It's on at 8 p.m. central time on Tuesday night. You'll have to have a radio license to get on it. It's a Zoom meeting. The link is too long to try to read on the land but it's on the front page of our website. You'll see under this list of RV nets. That's the only other thing I see that we need to announce is that's going to be out of COVID-19. We're talking about 12-17 at Brawling Lake RV Resort in San Antonio, Texas. More information is on our website. You can click the link there.

That's all the announcements I've got. We do have, I'll remind everybody, a topic every week. This week we selected the topic of how did you get started in amateur radio basically, how and why did you become a ham. So we have that for our suggested topic. You're welcome to talk. If you've got nothing else to say, then that's where to start. I'll remind everybody that we do have NetLogger running. I'll look us up on NetLogger to see where we are. You can look all of our nets up on NetLogger.org. If you have the application, you can use it and get all the information. We also get a list of current nets by going to, on the air nets at the live, real-time list by going to NetLogger.org and it's right there on our main page. We also do proof passes through and we use NetLogger to follow through the link on the second pass. We call that a lightning round, just a chance to get up anything you forgot to say or answer questions anybody else has asked. Ask a new question, whatever. Just tie up loose ends, goes pretty quick. All right, so having said that, let me get kicked off here with how I got started. I really got a, was working for the phone company and there was a job opening came up. It was a union job. I had to put an application in for it, put a bid in on it. And I had enough seniority to get it, but I had to tell people where to get it. It had to do with working on some equipment primarily. And there was some electronics involved with that, nothing real heavy. But it was enough to perk my interest in ham radio, which I had from my high school days. Some of my friends had ham radio licenses, but I didn't have money to buy any equipment, so I never went forward with it at that time. But now that I was a working guy for about five years and had a little bit of money, not a lot, I decided it was time to take a look at it. And that's what I did. I got my first transmitter with a piece of junk that was underneath the table at the Aitken Ham This is Recuter Station Kilo Kilo 7, November Quebec November. I brought it home and worked on it and picked it up and got off the air with it and the rest of its history. I got involved with radio at work and radio was a hobby. So that's my story.

Why did I get into becoming a ham? About ten years ago I was in South Texas for a meeting and someone cut the Ethernet main line to South Texas because I talked to the guy at a ham fest who was called by the FCC to repair. And I was down there and it was just amazing to see the people who were panicking. First of all, because the Internet was cut, there was no electronic transaction so anybody who wasn't doing cash had to shut down the business for the day. And nobody's cell phones except for 911 would work. And it was a perfectly clear day in Texas. And to see the people who were panicked because they couldn't talk on their cell phones, I said to my wife, I said, I don't ever want to be like this. I've got to learn about ham radio. And that was about ten years ago. And then five years ago I belonged to the county medical reserve corps as just a worker and stuff like that. And they held a technician's license course. So I took that and then joined the county ham radio association and then get my general two years later and stuff like that. So that's how I got into radio. And now here I am playing digital on my laptop computer right now through Echo Link. And that's pretty neat using a DV drive and everything else like that. So it's amazing, fascinating the different ways that you can talk on radio. I do the submarine veteran's net in the morning and then get on digital a whole lot in the afternoons and the evenings.

Once again, I've got a keyboard problem. My transmit key didn't work the first time. I think I probably have to have my mouse. There's a bunch of settings in Echo Link you've got to keep right. One of them controls where you can have your mouse. If you don't have your mouse on the Echo Link screen, the buttons don't work. And I move my mouse around a lot. All right. Oh, it's falling out of John in Texas. Yeah, that's good. But Echo Link is pretty much an Internet communication today. So if you've got an Internet access problem, you're still not going to get out with Echo Link. Unless you've got a repeater that's there. And then again, you're only going to talk locally unless it's got an RF link somewhere to get to Echo Link. But anyway, it's a great tool when it works. It's great that you're getting out on repeaters all over the world. Like, we're hooked up to several other nodes, other conference nodes. And a lot of them got repeaters hanging on them. So we're talking on repeaters in a lot of places. So it still does take a license. You're still talking. As long as you've got the connection. All right. How about Marty? Let me find EAA.

Well, way back, 55 years ago, I had a good friend in high school. And he was a ham and exposed me to the hobby. And soon thereafter, I got my novice ticket in Calumet City, Illinois. It's about 25 miles south of Chicago. In those days, you had to have like an advanced or an extra class licensee give you the test. And I passed the five-minute, five-word-per-minute code test and the short knowledge exam. And I received my license. So that was, geez, 55 years ago, like I said. And then shortly thereafter, I upgraded to general. And in those days, I had to go down to the FCC office in the middle of Chicago to take the 13-word-per-minute code test and the knowledge exam. Passed that, and then shortly thereafter, the advanced. And about 10 years later, the extra. So it's been a good road. I've really enjoyed amateur radio. Let me reset. This is repeater station kilo, kilo seven. November, Quebec, November, N.O. So that's my story. And then got into all of the other modes. Was really heavy into DX. Not so much now because of the antenna situation. But I've got like 328 countries worked. 328, 329 or thereabouts. With about nine or ten left to go. But those are few and far between. The next one that I've heard that is coming up is one of the islands in the South Atlantic, Bouffay Island. So I hope to get that when they're on the air in February. That's all I've got Hank.

I got my license in 73. So, what that was. Oh, we got a check in there. Now I got my 4NC just checked in with us. Could show on the list here shortly, Steven. Anyway, I got my license in 73 and likewise I had to take the code test when the FCC came to town, they came to Louisville every three months. The other wife I would have had to go to Chicago as well. But they came to Louisville every three months and the next time they came to Louisville, which was the following month, I remember right, I got my general. And the next time I came to town I got my advance. And then six months later when I came to town I got my extra and my commercial license all at the same time. That was a busy day. That's a long story how that day played out. Anyway, a long time ago now. That's what got me into the telephone company radio shop. I worked there for, in a shop there for a number of years. I've enjoyed all my time with radio. Don't do as much of it anymore today as what I used to do. It was pretty transistor era. My first radio didn't have, they didn't know what transistors were when it was built. But it was a piece of junk that was in 73 laying underneath the table. So, it was old already then. But anyway, I rebuilt that and I worked on, I never built a kit. I worked on a lot of kits that other people built and couldn't get to work. But I never built on, worked on any of my, built one by myself. So, I just didn't have the instant net or chasing papers or contests. I just liked working on the air. That did a lot of traffic net and then a lot of drive-tune nets. And that's always been my interest. Alright, see you next week Marty. Stick around, listen to me. If you still see you still connected, I'll call on you. That brings down, let me just renounce here who we've still got. We've got George, AD2IH. Donald, KI4ZS who showed up and then disappeared. I hope he's over on a network somewhere where he's listening to us. We can get in. And then we've got Steven, NY4NC has joined us now. So, Steven, you'll be number, you'll be third coming up.

Years ago I did radio electronics and radar and stuff but primarily power systems like for power distribution, like for the power company. Anyway, so after being retired I got a job which I never messed with. So I studied the three books from ARRL and I like taking the tests and doing the studying. It kind of reminded me of being a youngster in school. A lot of math and stuff I did 50 years ago. I was like, oh this is cool. And I went through the three tests and then bought a radio and six months later I decided to hook up a microphone and actually use the thing. And here we are.

So, the same with the booster, I guess. They do that deliberately. I don't know why they wouldn't recover it and try to examine it to see how it behaves, but they're very, very nervous about mine. Anyways, now on to the question after I break. Okay, the question. How and why did I get into ham radio? Well, it was, yeah, it was Chris Campsola's fault, W4CEC. I was complaining to him about when we travel out west, the lack of cell powers and wanting to be able to communicate, so he suggested ham radio. And so, I started studying and I passed my, with the help of some good materials from ARRL and hamstudy.org, and a class that Chris was conducting, I got my technician's license. Then, I come along and I find out that repeaters are also rather scarcer than hen's teeth out west. So, then he said, well, you go general and you start with HF. So, October of that year, same year, April, October, I did the same thing. Got the materials, studied, took the test, and got my general. And then, 2021, ARRL, FCC announced they were going to start charging 35 bucks for licensing. So, I said, hmm, maybe I better go ahead and do this. So, I studied, got the book studied, and did everything I needed to upgrade to amateur extra. And of course, my license, I dived into it, you know, head first and then, because I did have a somewhat technical background at 26 years in the Army and the field I was in. I dealt with radios and things like that. So, phonetic alphabet was absolutely no problem. Some of the concepts, not a problem. Just the, had to do the rules and all that other stuff. And of course, some of the math was, really took some work. And so, that's, essentially, that's how I got into it was just technical. I always, I kind of wanted to, I found out that one of my uncles was an amateur. I don't know his call sign. He passed away a long time ago. I never even saw his equipment that I recall. Because I was quite young at the time. And so, I don't ever remember seeing his amateur radio equipment. But it would have been nice.

It was outside, and they said, no, they just showed it. And they got on an HF gear. I remember the big inverted D antenna, and then I seen it, and then I thought, okay, it got a spark in my interest, but I didn't know how to get into it. And about, like, about almost ten years ago, I met somebody at church that was into ham radio. I'm one of those, and I'm just meaning I got used to being to the church early, and I guess they were too, and got me into ham radio. And he kind of humbled me in. I had a study a lot harder to pass the test, but he helped answer a lot of questions. And the first time I tried it, passing the test, the test group said, try taking a class. I wish I did, and I wish I helped quite a bit. And that's how I passed the technician class, and I took the general class after that. And so, like, ten months later, I got the general class. License. So, and then finally I got the HFP air for at least the radios, the slash mortgage, and then trying to figure out how to do the antennas, instead of, you know, so I can do it on the patio.

And the Ham Reel on the Patio. I got a couple of friends that had interesting setups. They were in, one of them was in an area that was restricted to antennas. The other one was not, but he just did it this way because he wanted to. He actually had some wire antennas up, but he decided he wanted to try one of these vertical antennas, push up vertical antennas. I've got an Eagle I antenna and that's how it's made. I don't know if he had an Eagle I or some other brand, but it was basically a telescoping vertical antenna. And he put it on the railing of his back deck on the 70. He lived on the edge of the lake. It was a space in the lake, nobody could see it from the road. Of course, actually there was a whole lot of trees between him and the road that would have been able to see it anyway. But that's beside the point. He put it up there and he worked pretty good with that. He ran some wire around the handrail on the deck as radials. And he said that helped him a lot. I've never tried using radials on my, mine's mounted on the back of my RV, so it's kind of hard to drag radials down the street. I'd have to hook them up and disconnect them every time we used it. So I don't typically use radials. That tune's just fine. It probably would work better with some radials, I don't know. But anyway. The other one was a senior citizen who's still around today, I guess he's still got the same set up, moved into a senior's home, self-assisted living that's on your own, the there if you need them kind of a thing. They provide you with meals and transportation and stuff like that that you still live on your own. He designed a push out antenna, basically it was another vertical antenna but he pushed it out of the window horizontally and ran it out that way out of his window in his apartment. I don't know how he got by with that but he did. He ran that for a long time. I think as far as I know he's still running it today. He's in the Raleigh area, North Carolina. And he got to get into some interesting set ups if you get out there looking for him. Alright, thanks for being with us and stick around for the lightning round Dave. That brings us down to the bottom of the list currently, KI6-HOB. Mark, you're up from K4-HM.

So I looked into it, they had that one day course test and I took it and then continued on from there. And then I worked with my son's Boy Scout troop for a while. I got half his troop license, his scoutmaster license. And to this day I think only a handful of them still have their license. They all let them go. But I'm coming to you from a NodeVentures using All Star connected to the Southeast link. So there, what a round way to get there.

You can feel the warmth of the sun, but we're still holding in the late winter temperatures here. That's going to change pretty quick. Anyway, looking forward to spring and summer and all that comes with it. How did it become him? My father was always into electronics. That was what my father's interest was. He ended up getting into World War II. It shows you how old I am. They assigned him duty as a radio man. He worked as a radio man in Newfoundland. That time was, I guess, a semi-independent country. He helped direct planes back and forth across the Atlantic. He learned Morse code. He learned it very well. I think he'd copy about 60 words a minute. When he got out of the Army, he went into electronics and studied electronics, worked as a broadcast engineer for a radio station. By the time I came around, there was radios and oscilloscopes and electronics all around the house. I grew up with electronics and that kind of thing. My father showed me ham radio, showed me shortwave radio, showed me all these sort of things that were going on on the radio. I, of course, laughed it up. I really enjoyed learning about it. Unfortunately, I never acquired his skill at Morse code. I had to wait for the code requirement to go away before I became a ham. By the time that had come about, I was out of the house. I finished university. I had a couple of close friends who were ham radio enthusiasts as well. I think the day since the Morse code requirement went away, I went with a friend of mine. We went and I took the test and I got my license. Ever since then, I've been licensed in ham radio. I've always been surrounded by people who like electronics and radio. I've always had an interest. I ended up being in IT. I think I've gone all the way over there."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-08-28T18:46:05+00:00","id":26792,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":26791,"text":" I don't know whether I talked over the time limit or not there, but hopefully I didn't. Anyway, I've always been surrounded by people with IT backgrounds and stuff, and with electronics backgrounds. That's where my interest came in, and that's how I became a ham. I almost inherited it from my father. I think I mentioned before that one of the projects that my father and I did together as a sort of bonding exercise was putting together an FP-101. That was a fun exercise. That was a good time. Still lots of memories from that, even though it's decades ago, but still a pleasant memory of my father.

My father was involved in electronics, too, but he was never interested in ham radio. He came out of the Second World War as an officer, retired, with no electronics background at all. But he took an electronics course from the Chicago Institute of Technology, a mail order course, get a lesson every week. And I was probably learning to walk about that time. He took that course, and I still got part of that course. It was two big, like a big dictionary-sized volumes of weekly classes. I've got the first set of it, and he never gave me the second set. I had no idea where they wound up going. But anyway, he was involved in electronics, but I didn't have any of the electronics at all until I had to get some involvement with PORC. So kind of the opposite of what your story is. You also mentioned the temperature. We have had a very cold season here. We had about two weeks of summer. Actually, one week, two different times of summer. And the rest of the season has been unseasonably cool. Tonight, and tomorrow night both, it's going to go down to the low 40s here, unless they've changed it since I looked this morning. It's been down in the upper 40s and lower 50s for the last week or so. And I do the night security walk here. So I've been wearing heavy clothes where I normally go out in shirt sleeves. So it's been an unusual year. This is our seventh year up here. It's the first time we've ever run into this kind of cold weather up here. So anyway, it's good to have you with us, and I'll let you expand on a little bit on doing a lightning round. We've got coming up now, we've got Jacob, W4TTS. Jacob, I'm not sure you've been on this deck before. So I'll say good evening to you. Welcome to our net. This is the RV Radio Network. We've got a club that sponsors the net.

He was also a Georgia repeater coordinator and he also ran a radio station and he always played around with electronics as I was growing up. Unfortunately, he passed back in 2014 from a fall from his radio tower. His death kind of pushed me to go ahead and become a ham because he had let me play around on the radio with him as I was growing up and he would control the mic and let me talk to people on the other side and he was always trying to get out to the furthest contact he could make and it just always interested me and now that I'm older and have time and a little money to throw at the hobby, I'm just digging in and I'm always listening.

KI5ECE I guess will be up first. And, uh, this is going to be a short list. KI5ECE can pass it down to George, 82IH. And George, he can give it to Stephen, NY4NC.

Uh, KI5ECE, take it away. Alright Hank, this is KI5ECCO-TRI-ECCO, just 10 miles north of Dallas-Fort Worth Airport. It's a great night here. We had a little sprinkles come through and it's already down to lower 80s. So, we had a little bit of a cool front push through. Who knows? It's been nice and immense like that. Went out, uh, been home most of the time. Been, uh, without RVing last week to the local Corps of Engineering camp. And lo and behold, we camped on the two hottest days of the summer in Texas. So, it was, uh, it was an interesting couple of days out in the middle of the week. Well, I'm busy here in Texas. I'm trying to correct as many, uh, things for the fall rally as I can to bring down to my Texas buddies so we can raffle a whole lot of stuff off. And I'm constantly looking for more stuff to bring back. So, I hope we'll have a lot of giveaways when we all get together October 12th through the 17th down in San Antonio. I'm looking forward to that. So, uh, just doing that and getting ready and then making improvements on the camper. Gotta get ready for quartzite in January. More batteries and I'm going to put an inverter in so I can have some AC out in the desert. Alright, so I am going to pass it off to 82 IH.

My call sign is Kilo 7 Lima Lima Zulu and I will be net control for the evening. This is a directed social net that takes place on the PSRG repeater located in Seattle, Washington. The repeater operates at a frequency of 146.960 MHz with a negative offset and a PL tone of 103.5. All licensed Tams and especially those of you just getting started are encouraged to check in and let us know what's going on in your world. We do have three things that we ask you to remember. First, please limit your reports to no more than three minutes. That lets us get to as many stations as possible and also keeps us from timing out the repeater. Please also keep your reports appropriate for a general audience which we assume includes children. And last, when you are finished with your report, please do end with your call sign. That keeps the FCC happy and lets us all know who we're listening to. Also helps me know when you're finished. And again, my name is Ben, my call sign is K7LLZ. I will be net control for tonight. What that means is in each round I will be asking for operators names and call signs, then compiling lists of stations one by one. I'll then come back and ask for those stations reports in order. If you don't have any traffic but would like to check in, that is perfectly fine. Just let me know that you will be in and out, also known as an I.O. With all that out of the way, let's get this show on the road. This is round one of the PSRG 9 o'clock net. All stations please come ahead one at a time.

It's kind of interesting to write about because there are some things going on that are not ordinary. It's not an ordinary David Weber, missile bashing kind of combat. It's kind of interesting to write and I'm slowly slogging through it and trying to finish it so that I can find an editor to work with it and maybe get it to being a debut novel that's worth publishing. I'm still working on the military medley and getting it all spiffed up so that I can play it for my harp circle in September. I will work at the gallery tomorrow, obviously, and hopefully get outside and busk a little bit. Then I need to find something for my beloved for our 44th anniversary, which is tomorrow. Hallelujah! Say big love and hugs to my dear husband. And other than that, not a lot going on. 73, 33, 88. Thanks to Ben for running the net and thank you all for listening. I love you all.

I guess the 44 is quite a number of opportunities. But, you know, they don't come around that often, so sit back and enjoy those. Congratulations on getting a lot of writing done today. I know it sometimes comes in fits and starts. I'm very curious about the extraordinary combat in your weird skirmish battle.

Around the clock you can see all these different critters out there and bobcats and birds and everything else called Critter Vision. So it's just kind of, have it up right now. The only thing on there right now is a possum chewing out the grain and the box that they have out for it. Anyway, with that being said, yeah, we talked to, we had a, on the Poppa system, we had a group that went out to the Santa Cruz Island which is off the coast of Los Angeles and they camped out there for the last few days and just talking about what they did out there. We had a nice net with them every night of the week and really it's kind of a cool thing what they were doing out there and they take a boat out there and then they have these carts they can carry stuff into the campground with and it works out really well. And they set up radios and kind of a neat little thing. I think maybe a PSRT might wanna do something like that sometime. But meanwhile, let's see what else is going on here. Just had a nice sunny day here, about 75 degrees. The barometric pressure was around 30.01 today and as he's climbing now. And the squirrels are out and about. Had three of them out there at once which is chasing each other but most of them were just eating the food out there so they were taking turns. So that's kind of neat. Watch three different squirrels out there off and on. They were definitely having a good time. So with that, I'll turn it back to the net.

Just the things that are going on in the world and therefore in our world and my world are just weighing on me. And trying to formulate some of my thoughts to share on more appropriate or the places online where, although these are more common, are still harder to get my words across. So trying to compose some thoughts for sharing. And obviously I'm barely getting those across to folks on the net.

But yeah I think I'll take the Yesu FT1X out again. Since I'm really having a lot of fun with that radio. I'm just starting to get used to how to operate it. And probably an HF activation I think. I noticed yesterday that the HF bands were starting to pick up a little bit. I was operating SP8 yesterday and I was getting Japan and Stateside and lots of DX contacts. So I haven't had those for quite a while and it's good to get them back on that waterfall again. But when I go out and report it, it's a voice activation. So I change my style depending on what I'm doing. It's meant to be a voice operator at weekend and a digital operator during the week when I'm working. Hi.

It's been a long day. I woke up in Newark, went into the airport and did my recurrent training, my continuing qualifications. We called it CQ for continuing qualifications, which means that I am now certified to be a flight attendant again for the next 18 months. So I don't have to go back and do all that boring, tedious, busy work of, you know, opening things and flipping switches and turning knobs just to show I know how to do my job. It's good that we have it, but it is definitely kind of mind-numbing. So my brain is mush and I'm tired and my flight was delayed getting out of Newark because Newark. And I'm home finally after a long few days. I'm not a lot of sleep. I did want to echo your sentiments to Paul's check in there. I have some some deep thoughts about that that I will save, but on the lighter side there's a picture that I'm going to post to the PSRG Facebook group, which is is how I feel about that situation. And the the caption of it is, The horrors persist, but so do I. And that's that's how I feel about it. Anyhow, it's been a lot this last week, but honestly with with gratitude even bad things end up turning around for good. So there's not not really reasons to stress. Everything will be what it will be and I'm just here living it. So anyways I'm gonna make some noodles and chow down on these a Bulldog carbonara spicy ramen while I listen to the rest of the net. I hope you're staying cool up there tonight. Ben, I hope you have a beverage. Staying hydrated. Hydrate don't hydrate. And I'm worrying about come winter given the insulation factor up there.

Let's see, we do have the Seattle Auxiliary Communications Service amateur radio licensing course and exam, nice and tidy title. That is coming up Saturday, September 6th, and Saturday, September 20th. It's basically an all-day affair, those days 9 a.m. to 4.30 p.m. It's at the Meadowbrook Community Center address on our website. And let's see here, it's going to be a two-day amateur radio class on those two days. And it will introduce participants to amateur radio practice, prepare them to pass their license exam. The class is $20. This is repeated station 00Q07, November, Quebec, November. More information needs to be registered through our link on our website. And also contact with any questions. Again, PSRG.org. As long as you've got the calendar out, we do have a PSRG educational meeting scheduled for Saturday, September 13th. So just a couple of weeks away, and then a day or so. And again, that is I think 1.30. It's on Zoom. Zoom information is yet to be posted, topic yet to be posted, but that should be coming up on our website before too long. Sneak preview of that here because you're listening to the radio. And let's see here, also tomorrow there is the memorial for Tad Cook. That is from 6 to 9 or so. I think the event itself starts at 6. And that's at University Center at 53rd and University Way, if I recall correctly, if my notes are right. We also have the Zero Retries Digital Conference coming up September 13th in Everett. It is a digital radio conference. There's been not a digital radio conference for several years now. And this is filling that void. If you'd like to participate, it's Saturday, September 13th at the Edward Hansen Conference Center in Everett. And you can find more information on our website including a link to Zero Retries.org. Again, on our website, psarg.org.

We have had a series of these sort of events online and in person over the course of the year. The last one is coming up in October which sounds like a long time away, but in a few days it won't sound like a long time away because it's only about a month. So if you are a New Ham, if you know someone else who is a New Ham or just interested in becoming a ham, it's not in the notes but I bet it's okay. There is an event, it is virtual on October 5 at 3 PM, information on our website. Cascadia Radio is going to be hosting, but it is a project of about six different groups here in the Seattle area. And it shows a New Ham or someone who is interested in expanding their ham activities, all kinds of stuff from contesting to getting on HF, Parks on the Air which has already been referenced tonight, DIY antenna building, and emergency communications, so all kinds of things from service to fun and everything in between.

This is Justin, KK7 QES. And it's been a while since I've gotten in on one of your nets, so I'm glad the stars aligned tonight. And it's been very enjoyable listening to you and all the check-ins tonight, so thanks for doing that. And by the way, if I recall, your QTH is in an attic. I think I remember that from when it was shortly after I got licensed, and I remember thinking, oh that's really cool. So if that's still the case, and I think maybe it is, I hope you're staying cool. Here at my house, we were kind of gearing up for back to school. My girls start on Tuesday, and tonight was an end of summer ice cream social at their school, so that was really fun. It was kind of just cool to connect with a bunch of families and their friends that we haven't seen as much over the summer. Just kind of excited to have a bit more structure in our schedule again. It was a really busy summer, and I feel like, I mean it was really good. I feel like we never found a rhythm though. We were always kind of scrambling around. So yeah, it would be good to have a regular schedule again. Other than that, I've been working in the garden a bunch this week, and this is by far my most productive year I've had in my highly amateur gardening career. So I don't know if it really means that much, but I've been harvesting a ton of stuff all week. I'd say for the past month, I'm getting at least like three to five cucumbers a day and pounds of green beans. I told my family, all of us have to eat an entire cucumber every day, or we will be drowning in cucumbers. What I'm most excited about though, my beefsteak tomatoes are all really kind of starting to blush, so we're going to have a bunch of awesome tomatoes to eat over the next week or so. That will be really cool. And my jalapenos are just about ready to harvest too. It's exciting. And my girls have been into it, and yeah, we've been really enjoying that. I'm looking forward to the long weekend, and it's going to be good. Although I start an on-call rotation for work on Monday, so I'm just going to be crossing my fingers that I don't get called on Monday. If I do, that's okay. We'll get it fixed, but I'll have the rest of the day off. Anyway, that's what's going on with me. Ben, thanks again for running into that. Good to hear you out there.

Let's see here. Well yeah, no thank you very much for checking the time to check in. You are correct that my QTH is in an attic. It is quite warm up here. And I timed my beveraging wrong. I had a hot water and I was like, oh that looks so good and I opened it before the net and then I brought it up here and it was nearly gone by the time I finished a little in the introduction. So yeah, I'll be fine. I'll be fine. I got some, I got some, what, orange juice downstairs with my name on it. We'll be good. I'm so glad that your gardening is productive this year and not just because you have vegetables coming out of the ears, but also because it means that you like persevered through years before this which were less productive and I know that can be discouraging sometimes. So way to get through that and have a bunch of cucumbers. Although I did kind of laugh when you were like, oh we got to eat a cucumber a day or we'll be drowning in cucumbers. Because I think some people would say like that's the definition of drowning in cucumbers already is when you're eating a cucumber a day. Maybe not. I mean it does sound, maybe they're small little gherkins. Who knows? Uh, school starts Tuesday. Uh, I think that's a day before my, my housemates' kids show up. But yeah, the ice cream social in advance sounds like a good idea. I don't know if you were listening earlier, but a lane down in Florida also has an ice cream social coming up on Saturday. So that sounds like a treat. All right. Enjoy the more structure that's coming up in the week ahead, but also soak up as much of these last few days as you possibly can because you'll miss them, believe it or not.

He's so much better than I am. Holy kamoly. But anyway, tonight we had a great, great trip on the Sea Cycle with our, you know, I don't know if you heard or not, but I put lights, we have put lights on the Sea Cycle so we can be out after dark, and tonight's sunset was at 7.36. We're like 20 minutes earlier than you guys back there in Seattle, and so we had a great, we had great rides and a lot of it was in the dark after lights on, and so anyway, the Sea Cycle is still going great, and the water skiing is going great too, so I think tomorrow's going to be a great day. We're looking forward to it. Back to you, Ben, and you always do a great job as everybody has said, so just hang in there and 7.30. Everybody, have a great coming up weekend, a Labor Day weekend, and it's going to be busy here at the lake, I know that.

I'd say it's about a four and a half hour drive to get there. So the earlier we can get down there, the less likely we are to be setting up camp in the dark. That's what we did last year. We're going to the same place. That's OK. I have lots of lights. I'm charging my light here that I am able to stick on the back of the truck to make backing the trailer any easier, just in case that has to happen. But anyway, it's all good. Should be a lot of fun.

And yeah, I've been thinking to myself, I think this is FCC appropriate for me to talk about this, but I saw a study years ago that talked about how wood ash, it might have even been a sort of a joke study, but like sincerely a study, it might have even been cigarette ash and human urine. And the combination thereof worked as well or better than most commercial fertilizers. So there you go. If you're out of commercial fertilizers or feel like a fun DIY at home project, make some fertilizer and make delicious bumper crops. Maybe just stick with wood ash. That sounds like or newspaper.

Yeah, KK7, Fox, Kilo, Bravo are flying kites backwards, as they like to say. It's been an interesting week since last Friday. I hadn't heard from a friend for a long time, and long story short, I started calling up hospitals, and I found him. Apparently, he had been diagnosed with this non-curable, very rare disease that was slowly killing him. Since Friday, I've been spending a lot of time at the Providence Everett Hospital. I don't even know what ward it was. It was just the end of life ward. Everyone's kind of on their way out, I guess, floor. And I'm really glad that I had that opportunity to do that. He passed yesterday morning. And I'm really glad I did it when I did it, because Friday, when I saw him, I saw him and he saw me. We had kind of a rough conversation, but it was him. It was him. And then, by Sunday, it was just very simple, small one-word answers. And we listened to music, we listened to No FX, the punk rock band from Southern California, and we listened to the Toasters. I think the last thing that he said to me, I asked him, do you like the Toasters? I think you like the Toasters, right? And he's like, yeah. So we listened to the Toasters, and we listened to a song called Pirate Radio, which is about, I think it was a break for a second."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-08-28T22:25:05+00:00","id":26931,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":26930,"text":" I think it was in the late 40s, early 50s, pop and rock music was technically illegal in the United Kingdom. And there was a boat outside of the UK border in the ocean that was broadcasting pop music. And this band, The Toasters, were just little kids at the time. And they wrote a song called Pirate Radio, and there's this lyric about when I was a boy, I listened to the radio. And, I don't know. It was just a moment. And now I'm not really exactly sure how to feel about it. I have these moments where I feel fine, and then all of a sudden, in a split second, there's this giant hole in my world. And, you know, I used to talk to him every single day, either in person or over chat. And today, the day after, was like the first day where I was like, oh, I had this thought that I wanted to bounce off of him, and I can't do that anymore.

You know, there's a, for me there's this disturbance in the force because, I guess, his energy, which made up his entire being is now being released back into the universe.

I will end with a little bit of that. But Tree got me thinking, you know my grandpa did pass away in the past couple of days. And that's... it hasn't fully hit me yet. I'm sure it will in the next few days or some random time coming up. My grandpa was also not a super emotional person. And he had dementia for the past three or four years. So it kinda felt like we mentally lost him or we physically lost him. So it was kind of a relief that he had passed. Because he wasn't struggling so hard. But I was reminded of a quote from Keanu Reeves when he was on the Colbert show. When asked what happens when we die. And he said, I know that the ones who love us will miss us. And I definitely felt that from Tree's check in. I also love No Effects. One of my favorite bands. I'm big into the punk scene. But that's a story for another day. I would love to meet up with you Tree. I've heard you check in and I feel like we would get along many levels. A song that has made me feel my feelings in the last week is We'll Meet Again by Vera Lynn. It's older. It's definitely older. It's the 50's or 60's. But definitely cried to that one a little bit in the past couple of days. And then to end on a punchy note for Ben. When you're feeling punchy you just gotta remember the 5 D's. Dodge, Duck, Dip, Dive, and Dodge. Because if you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a ball. Alright. Anyways, I'll throw it back to you. Thank you for running the net Ben. Tree, all the love to you. And hope everybody has a wonderful night. And hug the ones you love. And spend time with them. Because we only have so much time. So I will throw it back to you Ben. Thank you so much.

He tried to fix it with chemicals but he could never get it perfect. To get it perfect, he had a cardinal that had a blueberry or something right in its mouth.
