Well good luck on your errands. Yes, doesn't have to be contadine. I have to get good quality. Although, and I do have a question. This was kind of rumbling around in my brain while you were talking there James. So does Costco release or have a list of who makes their Kirkland brand products, right? So like the tomato sauce. Who makes that? Is that, you know, just one of the big manufacturers? Do you have any idea if they have such a list that they publish? Boy that's an excellent question. We know from K7R0, who's the guy in Chandler? And I'm blanking on his name. He said, he reported that, you know, when they decided to drift away from foster farms for their chicken, they built their own chicken farm. And that's, so it really is Costco chicken in those packages. Now as far as like the olive oil and stuff, you know, I don't know who they're getting it from. But they could be, you know, buying, they could be getting it from, I have no idea. But it would be interesting to know who they're sourcing it from. Because sometimes these brands have multiple, like, it's like liquor, you know. I know that there was a distillery that had a number of labels or brands. And they weren't, like there was, was it Rummer or Vodka? Their sales of vodka was down. And so they were trying to figure out, oh, what does she do? And one of their, like, you know, geniuses came up with and said, you know, instead of trying to figure out, you know, a label to sell, to go low to try and increase sales, how about we come up with some snazzy little name for a brand of alcohol and charge more and advertise it like, hey, this is some, you know, this is some snazzy stuff and it ain't cheap. So if you want to have really good, you know, vodka and it comes in this bottle with this snazzy name, you know, you didn't have to pay a little extra for it. And so they did. And they had a nice advertising campaign and they were making money hand over fist, same alcohol that they were selling for less. You can still pay less, get the same alcohol, but if you want this snazzy label and think you're getting something special, well, pay up. And it's Grey Goose. And that's how Grey Goose came into being. And it worked. Same stuff. It's like, I remember seeing an interview with somebody from Jamison and they said, yeah, we spent a lot more on the bottle and the design of the bottle than the alcohol. Alcohol costs us nothing to make, to distill. It's the same old cheap stuff. But that bottle, we spend all this money blowing these special bottles and people just drink it up because of that bottle. There you go.

So I foresee in my future this weekend, a pile of egg salad to make sandwiches for him, for his work lunches next week. So now I've got to go find a good egg salad recipe. I know it's not too terribly difficult to make, but I know that there's lots of different variations out there that people can do. I guess I should ask him what variation he wants and make that one. I guess I'll do that. What else? The dogs are barking. I wonder if that means the mail carrier is approaching or somebody has the audacity to walk down the side of the street. We're preparing for heading down to Gig Harbor again to go pick up all of the radio gear. I think we're going to speak to the silent key estate person this evening to finalize some plans and then we'll be good to go. Other than that, just working furiously.

And that same product will go under, I don't know, maybe five labels, three to five labels, maybe more. And it's the same stuff. And the price point's all different, depending on what label they put on it, like James said. And speaking of liquor, there was a liquor warehouse I used to go to when I lived in Cleveland. We'd do what we call a shuttle. That's from just simply one point to the other. Take a trailer to load it, run it to point B, they'd unload it, and then you'd go back and do it again. And we would go from their distillery on the west side to a warehouse they had on the east side. And same thing. They had, like James was saying, they had like the bottom shelf and the top shelf. It was the same stuff. It was just a label. And what was interesting is when we walked in, the guy goes, do you want some coffee? I go, yeah, I'd love to have some coffee. So then I go, I walk through the warehouse. Two more guys come up. They go, hey, you want some coffee? And I go, no, I'm good. The guy just gave me some coffee. It was like, you guys drink a lot of coffee around here. And so I got a kick out of that. And they did have very good coffee. Let's see. Let me grab my glasses. I got a sticky note here with all my notes. And yes, we have sticky notes in the truck, just like the office people. So that's kind of cool. The mosque guy came by this weekend, so we're very happy about that. So we have a mosque-free roof. So we're real happy about that. Courtney would not let me go to the top of the roof. And I didn't argue because I'm scared of heights. That's why I had a desk job in the Air Force. And let's see. What else?

I discovered when I took my Pota rig on the boat, I thought I'd left a power cord missing back here at the shack. So I didn't operate any Pota. Turns out I did have the power cord. It was just put in the little zipper compartment. So it was kind of a waste of time to carry it.

It looks like a DV switch turned off the toggle switch on me, so I'm not sure how to hold down the button here. But just running around the house, getting ready to go over to Floral Hills Memorial Place, Center, Cemetery, whatever it is, over there in Wynwood. Just finished some laundry, so I'm going to get all gussied up and head on over there to bury my grandpa. So I'm leaving in the next about 15 or so. I'm just packing up real quick, getting ready to go. And seems to be having some hardware issues with my radio here. I'm not getting in. Like last night, I was struggling a little bit with it, so might need to troubleshoot that. Could be a loose cable. I do kind of treat the cable I have here a little rough by letting it hang instead of making sure that it doesn't hang on the connection. Anyhow, I'll throw it back to you. Just doing laundry and running around the house. KJ7WQI. Alright, Matt. Well, hey, it's a bad somber day, I know, for you and the family. But that's a great thing that you do. And I hope there's some stories that come out today, and I know there will be. Anyway, you take care, my friend. And yeah, if you need any help with the radio, let us know. Alright? Okay, that was Matt, KJ7WQI. We had Graham in there, and we had James in there from Lincoln City, Indiana. Alright, let's continue on. Current time, 1.03 p.m. If you'd like to join us here on the Noon Net, here on the PSRG repeat, out of Seattle, Washington, come ahead now.

I have a coworker that has a, goes every summertime, they go all the way up to Alaska, and then on the inside passage and that. And he sends a little informational word document or whatever every so often on their travels and that. And they went by someplace called the Thelda Bay. I hope I'm pronouncing it right. It's in Canada, off the coast of Canada. And he was talking about it was an old radio facility. Used to be a tower there. And I did a little bit of investigation on it.

This paper was written in 1984 and I think the basis of it, it's like a radio lighthouse system. They had antennas all over the East Coast and the West Coast and the Great Lakes and also in Panama Canal. And you would use a looped antenna to go until you know out the signal from the antenna and it would give you the direction of that beacon and then another beacon you could zero in on and I think you could determine your location. It was a pretty fascinating article. So I took a couple of pictures of that and surprisingly the thing in this, when this paper was written it was still in service and the paper was 1984. I'm sure it's not any longer but anyway, they all had their Morris identifiers, the Thelda Bay station that they went by, they had walked up to it where the antenna used to be and I think it's some kind of environmental group that's taking it over now, whatever, but anyway they all had their Morris code identifiers and that's pretty interesting stuff.

And myself and Mike, Mike Seven Hotel Quebec here, Helen Queen of Scotland, we did a little bit of shopping today. Of course, they took puppy Odin with us as well and they went to his favourite shop, it's called Labra Cadabra. Labra Cadabra. And yeah, they love their Labradors in there, so he loves going in there. He actually won, they had a wee kind of a treat box as well, so he's got lots of these wee chews and chicken feet and everything else there, so that's fine. But he also had to get these growing so quick there, Jack. Honestly, he's over three times as big as when we got him nine weeks ago. So every time he goes to sleep, he gets up and I swear he's growing even further. So man, I'll tell you. So we had to get him a new collar and lead, a more substantial lead for a heavier weighted dog and a better collar, a bit bigger and more comfortable, I do think. So there we go. But he's doing great with his training, I have to say. So very pleased. Anyway, Jack, good to hear from you, sir.

The Moon will be at Apogee, its farthest point away from the Earth this month. On the 26th it will be 251,996 miles from Earth. Planetary highlights for September. September's sky is rich with opportunities. Titan's shadow continues to transit Saturn. The ringed planet reaches opposition along with Neptune, with both worlds in the same region of the sky. Mars is descending toward solar conjunction. Uranus is a fine binocular target, while Jupiter dominates the early morning.

A seventh, meaning a seventh magnitude object is 2.5 times dimmer than a magnitude 6 object. While a magnitude 5 object is 2.5 times brighter.

But, as usual, we can definitely take a look at all the planets with a telescope or binoculars, for sure. You can put out a lot more detail than just looking at them with the Mark I eyeball. Continuing on, Venus rising, or this, excuse me, Venus is rising about 4 a.m. this week. Look for Venus to the east-southeast about an hour before sunrise. Venus moves from the constellation of Cancer into Leo, shining at magnitude minus 3.9 on the 15th. And for the Earth, the autumnal equinox occurs at 2.19 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time on the 22nd. So summer will officially end for the Northern Hemisphere and fall will begin on that particular day. After that, uh, and that is the time where we have an equal number of daylight hours and nighttime hours. After that, daylight hours will increase and the nighttime hours will increase. And just the opposite occurs, obviously, for the Southern Hemisphere. They will be, they're actually already into their, uh, springtime. They actually start on the 1st of September and, uh, 1st of December, 1st of March and June for their seasons, as opposed to the equinoxes or the solstices."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-09-09T18:39:36+00:00","id":36169,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":36168,"text":" The Saturn is in the constellation of Pisces, shining at the magnitude of 0.6.

So you'll need something at least 12 inches or greater to spot Pluto, plus a lot of patience and that dark sky for sure. Meteor showers. No major meteor showers are active in September, so we enter a bit of a lull after the excitement of August. Meteoric dust from thousands of comets passing over the eon is visible before dawn as the zodiacal light and sunlight reflecting off the dust creates a faint glow. You'll need a very dark eastern horizon with no speed lights nearby. Higher elevations get a better view too. Zodiacal light appears as a faint, cone-shaped glow aligned with the ecliptic. On September mornings, well before dawn, the high angle of the ecliptic benefits its use of it. The broad base of the glow is in Leo as that constellation rises and narrows higher in the sky through Cancer and Gemini. Catch it on moonless nights in the third and fourth week of September for the darkest skies. The exact surface from Astronomy Magazine, September 2025, page 29. There is, I did see a note on one particular meteor shower that is not very big but may have a bit of an outburst this year. What is it? Chi? Oh shoot. It's such a CHI. I'll have to look that up again a little bit later on. But about mid-month. See if you might be able to see some of those meteors. So we're making a little bit more activity than this article predicts. But under night and dark skies, always get out there and see if you can see some meteors tricking through.

Thanks for doing the net. It's Jeff, AB6MB on the San Francisco Bay. Today it was about 75 out there and sunny out. I got a weather radar up here on my tablet. I ordered a new tablet, a 10-inch tablet, and it cost me $39 off TEMU. I'm going to put my weather radar on there because I have an 8-inch tablet, but it's just not getting it. So it bugs me. It's got to be perfect, you know. So I got another 10-inch at the weather station at the local area. But anyway, I just watched the Dodgers game and the good guys are doing well, which is not the norm for a while. And let's see what else is going on here today. I just worked on some stuff on the computer and did some reading. I started reading a James Bond novel, Casino Royale, the first one in the series. And I don't think I've ever read it before. I think I started reading it, but I don't think I ever read it. Ian Fleming, who is the author, has written a bunch of novels for James Bond. I used to love the movies with Sean Connery. He's the only one that I could think of that is James Bond. But some of the other ones after weren't too bad, I have to admit. But I remember seeing a James Bond Dr. No when I was a kid in grade school. And my parents took us, my sister, to the movies, but they dropped us off because my dad was working on the house. So they had to get us out of there. And it turned out there were some scenes, I guess, kids probably shouldn't have seen at my age. Other than that, it was great. Well, it's still great actually.

I don't know, they're fun and I'm glad you're enjoying reading that. And yeah, glad to get another tablet there. Sounds like that's going to work out for you. So it's kind of amazing that you can have, as we said before, this little dedicated, inexpensive device for single tasking kind of thing. It kind of reminds me of the Star Trek pads where they had multiple ones.

And I had a good deal of fun laughing over this last night. Anyway, Rob and I have done some devious things.

And I just used a little power thing radio and had to explain to my friends and my wife that I couldn't contact them with that radio, didn't have enough power, but I could listen. So I shared the video on the book and everyone was pretty interested in it. And maybe sparked some interest in people getting into the ham radio because they seemed pretty enamored with it and pretty impressed. So that's pretty much all I got going on today.

Oh, I was actually down your way Well, I was in Tacoma on Sunday. I was helping a friend build a gazebo in their backyard And you know, it's funny because for a while there I was kind of hemming and hawing on their design because we were kind of making up a custom thing and You know if it's construction for me or you know automotive repair for me. I don't care it can be flipshod It can be it can be very questionable. I don't care. It's only me, you know, but I'm doing it for somebody else It's like oh, well, I don't want thing to fall down on them or to fail on them. So I'm a little more cautious So like the last couple of months when we've talked about this project whenever I went out to like sit out on patios, you know or restaurants then have That have covered patios gazebo like things I've been paying attention To how these things are constructed and put together And I realized the world is a frightening place People people do all kinds of weird stuff I felt better about my own, you know, weird construction You know if it's good enough for a place that you know carries liability like a restaurant And there looks like kind of like it's flip shot construction. Hey, it's good enough for me. So I felt better Anyway, the project was coming along pretty well It was cool because I got to take my Jeep down there and drive it so Anyway, it's been a good couple of days I'm finally feeling sore from the weekend of of construction, which is weird that there's like There's like that much of a delay.

And he's like well we have this radio, but he gave me a rough time about not being a ham and I Think even went as far as challenging my intellect possibly as to whether I would sufficiently pass the test But anyways, I shrugged that off at Bob's radio anyways Mostly to spite the gentleman at the time I said do I have to have a license to buy it?

So it must have been that one hour series filmed for television. So I'm guessing they were live things that were one hour long. But in terms of a series that was filmed, many things were just half hour programs. So interesting to note that that one hour drama thing really was fairly news. I guess it was introduced in 57. So yeah, I hope you have a great rest of your night. And it was interesting reading something else about television. I realized it's fascinating how really that media has not been around all that long.

The only difference from the other side where they filled the commercial gas was I tested mine. They didn't test theirs. But they were using the same 99.99% pure tank I was to fill from.

Where was I? Oh, yeah, so my interpreter friend, they're like we're not contracting. He's getting a little worried about getting gigs for interpretation and he does a lot of government work and all kinds of technical different things. But they tried AI and it didn't work. So he's back on the job working. So will these AirPods really do real-time translations? I mean that really sounds kind of cool. I'd like to, it might be worth it to get a set of those because a lot of times I feel that people talk in a different language to talk and so I don't understand what they're saying.

Yeah, they've thought of that, Rick, the, uh, the talking back to the person, and basically what they've done is when you're talking back to the person in your language, uh, you hold up your iPhone to them and they can read their own language on the screen of the iPhone. Uh, as you're speaking, it'll come across in their language on the screen. So, they have thought of that, and, uh, you can also have two people with a set of AirPods in each. This was a, uh, a demonstration they did as well, where they had two people sitting across a table from each other, and, uh, one was speaking one language and the other was speaking the other language, and both of them could hear each other in their own native languages.

Uh, you know, both of them had the AirPods in and, you know, having a business meeting and neither one of them spoke the other one's language, and I don't think either one of them was English, but, uh, they were talking back and forth like no problem at all.

But while you were talking, it was really barking back. But you were asking me about how work's going. Well, I've been working in a parking garage since the end of July until I got this job on the south side in the ghetto here. I'm in a section 8 apartment here. Man, yesterday, this person, I don't know if she had Tourette's, but it was just getting me nervous, screaming at the top of her lungs, just foul, garbage. My gosh. But anyway, working in the parking garage, I'm flat. We had some work, but we weren't using ladders that often. We're on a lift, and the lift mainly bothered me getting in and out of it, bending over and tucking my head and neck and back underneath the top bar. But when I got here, which Monday morning I got here to the ghetto, and I'm just pulling up now, so my GPS will stop barking at me. But here I'm on a ladder all day. These fixtures, the drivers, they're LED fixtures, and the drivers went on intermittently, one by one. So we were replacing them one by one, but now we're going ahead and replacing all of them. But I've been on a ladder for, this will be going on my third day, and I can feel the muscle in my, right below my hip, the muscle that was really stiff during this whole thing. I can feel it stiffen up, but it doesn't hurt. And the crazy thing is two of the things that I struggle with, number one, when I'm on my knees, getting up from my knees to a standing position, I struggle. And number two, if I'm like bending down, let's say I'm bent down and I'm picking something up off the ground or, you know, picking up a bunch of debris, little shards from the wires and stuff. When I go to stand up, I got to sit there for a second and reset. There's something that when I stretch down and I was talking to a guy at work, I'm like, yeah, these are like the two things that are lingering and they're telling me it's going to last 12 months. Well, I showed them how I would reach down to grab debris and stand back up, and that has gone away to my amazement. I'm hoping that I'll try it again today and hopefully I don't need to do that anymore. But getting up from my knees or down position, I can get down a lot easier now and I can get up a lot easier, I mean, before I would, if I was to kneel down, I'd have like a bucket or something and I'd grab and then I'd use my arms to grab all my weight to kneel down onto my knee pads. And then to get back up, I'd have to use my arms to get me started. And I'm getting a lot better on that, so I think this job right here, working on the ladder is really helping me out.

And I run into foreigners all the time. They're everywhere. So, I mean, yeah, that's just concerning, but people come here, they speak their language. It seems to be okay. So, it looks like, you know, we're kind of placed in a position to sort of make an adjustment for it, right? So, I, you know, because, well, I mean, the same thing that people are intolerant about it, they can treat my father about the same thing, and a majority of a lot of my fights on the street car, because I don't ride the street car with him, it's kind of a similar reason, because he gets picked on for his lack of English. And usually I got to step up and, well, I usually have to sort of have these silent cues, you know, you want me to roll on this fool or what, and you don't really get a chance to ask in a serious situation. So, there's been times that I've had to scrap it out for a first, just because you get the little kids that imitate and they make fun, and I have to kind of smash them through the wall. I mean, I smashed a kid through the sheetrock outside in the park, because he was kind of like clowning on my dad. So, sometimes, you know, it's a scrap situation, and I have to always say the same thing, because they'll usually say, Hey, look, you're in this country, why don't you speak this language? Now, I mean, everyone, as far as I know, is allowed to do that. So, you know, I have my little internal struggles with dad in terms of he never learned a goddamn thing when he got here, but, you know, that's neither here nor there. But somebody bullying and picking on isn't going to fly with me. So, there's been a lot of times I've had to scrap it out with, you know, with the little punks, send them off of the bus, eject them off of the bus crying, just because of those situations. I won't put up with it for a second. Matter of fact, now, I heard about the iPhone 17 being tiny. You know, I would like something tiny, just because there's a real threat of when I'm in a scrap, of me suddenly making a sudden move from the left side, and there is that chance of the phone flying right out of my pocket, you know, while I'm trying to smash somebody against the wall. So, a lot of times, I have to choose, and I can't always just scrap it out, because I got my phone with me. So, the more invisible they come, the better. I'm hoping at some point the translator app or whatever will make it to the blind shell. Yeah, I wondered just like you did about the two-way exchange, right? I mean, it wouldn't work with me. I can't read somebody's phone display. So, yeah, once they fix that A and B situation, then that will help lots of people. It will help my dad. You know, one thing I'm also wondering about is if it will help with somebody that just isn't speaking good English, right? Like a foreign cab driver or a foreign gas station person or somebody at the convenience store or somebody at the mall, because, I mean, pretty much that's what you run into on a constant basis. I think it's kind of what makes people intolerant of foreign languages, because you can't get someone to speak English. I call the bakery. I can't find someone to talk to me. I call a couple of restaurants that I make my reservations with. I barely understand the people. So, yeah, I mean, you're kind of surrounded by that. You kind of forget where you are, right? You go to certain parts of California, you think you're in Bombay. You're somewhere in India, right? So, you know, so there is that frustration of it. But, I'm getting so, I don't like going anywhere with my dad, because he can't agree to just not speak, because that would be a solution. If we get on the 506, because there's punks riding all the time, how about you just don't speak? Because, like me, I mean, I only pretend to be social. At points, I'm actually quite anti-social. I like to just, you know, put my headphones on. I don't want anyone bothering me. So, I don't know how my dad manages to speak so much, when when I ride those things, I don't want to talk to anybody, because I think I just kind of know how the atmosphere is. I'm in no mood for anyone, essentially. But he manages to somehow say a lot of things. It's like, how do you have so much to talk about? I barely even say anything to you. But he manages to say a lot. And it's in that process, you know, all the little punks are going to start up, you know, and they do, and then it puts me in a situation. And you can't just scrap it out with everybody you see. You never know if someone's going to bust out a knife, or if they have a posse. So, there's always that fear, I've been lucky, right? But I never know, right? I could roll up on somebody, I don't have weapons, they could have a shank or something, and then I'll be in trouble. So, more and more, I just hate being on the 506. Pretty much I can name the exact cars. That long bus, like all the long routes, and the 504 as well. So, they're really long routes, and there's plenty of chances for trouble. Because one of the first indications you'll see, the young punks will get on and just go to the back right away, right? Whereas the elderly usually sit up in the front. My dad just sits wherever he wants. So, a lot of times they're around where he is. And then some way, somehow, he pipes up. See, because usually I'm like, don't say anything, I'm thinking to myself, don't say anything to these punks. They won't say anything to you. We get off the ride, and then you can be Mr. Talkative. He just doesn't do it that way. And then it just becomes a whole thing, because then I'm just like, what's that? Would you say N? And then something starts. Because I'll have none of it. And my brother won't either. But he doesn't ride the 506 anymore. I have to. Okay, hey look, I'm going to get up out of here. I've got to get working. And I just barely woke up to kind of catch you starting and doing your net. I wanted to do a little one none. It looks like I could have stayed for two rounds. Look at what it is. It's like 756. So back to you, Daryl. And, yup, the news mentioned about the Apple convention. I did hear the highlights from that. Alright, so take care, and have a good day.

I was just curious because I didn't know. Yeah, the new iPhone 17, the really thin one, it's not small. It's quite large actually. The screen size is almost as big as the Pro Max, but it's thin. It's like 5mm thick or something like that. It's the thinnest phone that Apple's ever made. And it doesn't make any sense because it's got a giant camera bump right up close to the top of it. And it's only got one camera. The thin one does. The basic iPhone has had two cameras now since generation 10 and this is generation 17. So it's like they made an as powerful phone because it has the same chip as the Pro phones this year. But it has the same 120Hz display, ProMotion display and all that that the Pros have, but it only has one camera. So I don't know. It's kind of a trade off. Because my favorite thing about iPhone is the camera. It does such a fantastic job. And I don't know how they can make a camera. But you know, to be honest with you, these bloody iPhone cameras have been doing a great job for years now. And I can't see how they make them better. K, I'm 1X Kevin. Morning to you man. How's everything going with you this morning? Did you see the Apple event yesterday? And if you did, what are your thoughts?"},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-09-10T05:16:41+00:00","id":36450,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":36449,"text":" V01 UKC KM1X, good morning Darryll and everybody. I did kind of see it, I joined it late. I intended to watch it at one o'clock but I was over at a buddy's house and I didn't get home until about 20 after one. But I was following the thread in our chat and keeping up with it that way and then when I got home I turned it on. I wasn't really watching it, it was on and I had a tab opened on my laptop, it was playing. You know I hate Apple but at the same time I don't think any cell phone company has come out with anything worth anything in the last five years. It's nothing that's going to be making my life better. It's run its course, the cell phone has run its course. They're going to have to come out with a watch say that's going to do everything that the cell phone does in order for anything to be dramatically innovative. As far as I'm concerned I just think the cell phone, whether it's Samsung, Apple, Motoroll, Google phone, it seems like all they've done in the last, oh you know now instead of having a 38 megapixel camera we have a 40 megapixel camera. It's like yeah okay whatever. I just don't think, the translator, I mean how many people are seriously going to use that? I mean Google has been able to, had Google translate and you could hit your little like and have it do it and nobody really uses that. In fact if I go to Spain which I'll talk to about in a minute, I'll probably just use that. I just don't see how it justifies the price point. But as I mentioned in the chat yesterday, I think Apple has been so concerned in the last year about tariffs that the last thing they wanted to do was really sink a lot of money into putting tech into a phone that's going to cause them to raise the price even more not knowing whether tariffs are going to raise it on their own. But I honestly don't think that they're sitting on any mega technology. Let me pause. So I don't think that, I just think it's run its course. Samsung is going to try this whole foldable screen nonsense and they're trying to cram it down our throats but I don't think anybody's, I have not seen a single person with one of those phones. And it sounds like Apple is trying to go that route too but I don't know, not for me. But speaking of Spain, yesterday I pretty much have, we've nailed down points of departure and entry. We've nailed down dates and prices. We just need to book the flights but I need to send one final text to my brother and sister today and say, look, I'm going to be gone during these seven weeks. Are you guys going to be able to check in on mom and dad every week? And I mean it's a lot. I don't expect my sister to have to do it all herself although she's retired and she lives just as far away and she lives closer than I do. If I can do it why can't she? But my brother needs to step it up. And they tend to do the old, oh well we're going to be going here this week or whatever and traveling. It's like, oh, stop working it out now. But I want to get them on board and because that's just it. They always book their travel and then they just don't even tell me and then it's like, oh well Kev will take care of it. Well Kev's not going to be able to take care of it this time. So we will see. Maybe this time tomorrow I will have already booked everything, the flights anyway. And because there are, there's really good prices right now and I'm talking like, you know, first class round trip, you know, premiere, you know, seats that turn into beds and all that crap are really pretty reasonably priced I think for an international flight. So we'll see. But I'm already in Freeport. I'm about 10 minutes away and since it's 804 and I'm only the third person on the list and we've killed over a half an hour, I doubt I'm going to be around for the next round. So you could take me off the list. But I thank you for picking me up and I will listen out.

What I found is that when these people are poor, they are so poor that they don't know how to read their own language. They know how to speak it and they know how to communicate. Most of them will sign with an X and when they are writing letters, for them it's almost like, not like letter, but it's almost like drawing a symbol to them. It's very difficult for other countries or languages to do that. So what I found out the best thing to do is if I had to translate something, it was better audio than a visual not to read it because most people that are poor that come in from another country do not read their own language and they can't even sign their name. So that's my experience. Otherwise, you know, the translator, even the Google one is pretty good, the one I have downloaded on my phone. You know, my father had a very hard accent too, so I had to translate a lot. And we did get a lot, he did get a lot of what Kevin was talking about, people telling him to go back to his country and blah, blah, blah, blah.

Well, if you want to have a real great trip overseas, wear something with a Canadian flag on it. You'll definitely be well received. Apparently a lot of Americans do that. Put Canadian flags somewhere on themselves or on their backpack or something like that. And they usually get well received. Canada's got a pretty nice friendly relationship with the rest of the world right now. I think that hostility against Americans is higher around the world than it's ever been. But at the same time, I don't know. You know, 100%. Here in Canada, it's been unfair because Americans have been treated very badly here in Canada. And I don't think that's right. The only one that should be treated badly is that orange pedophile that you got sitting at the desk in the Oval Office there. He's the only one, I think, that should be treated badly around the world. And I don't even know how the hell he got into Canada, to be honest with you. Because let's face it. If you stole a loaf of bread from the store in the States, and you got a felony or even a minor charge, you're not going to be able to get into Canada. You've even got a minor charge. If you've got a minor charge in Canada, you can't get into the United States. So how is it that this 34 times convicted felon can basically travel where he wants to on the planet with no recourse? I mean, I personally don't trust letting someone with 34 felonies into my country. You never know what he could do. You know, especially someone with his track record. And now that friggin' image that he apparently drew for Jeffrey Epstein that he apparently didn't draw, that has his exact signature on the bottom of it, that's come out. So, Trumpy-Dumpy, lie it again. It's like, surprise, surprise, any time the guy's mouth is open, you can pretty much guarantee he's lying. I think it's sick, personally.

I am not happy about buying a $400 phone. So, you know, it is what it is. Anyway, as for, you guys are talking about translating, using the translator. I use the Google translator, which is one of the things they have live translating. It works pretty efficiently. What happens is, as you are talking, it will translate live. It will show it to someone or you can press the microphone, the little speaker thing, and it will speak what you say.

I do have kind of like a bucket cap that has got the New England Patriots logo on it, so I might wear that. Plus, I know that Europeans hate people that wear baseball caps, Americans that wear baseball caps. So, if I do the bucket cap thing, maybe I would fit in more, but I am not too concerned about that. It doesn't sound like Americans are being treated any differently over there. So, the plan I think right now is going to be to fly into Rome and maybe do a day or two there or maybe fly into Madrid. I can't remember now, it changed last night. Maybe it was fly into Madrid, do the walk and then go to Rome for a week or so and then fly back. So, we will see. We are going to get a year rail pass and zip around, so that will be fun. It all depends on whether we can do this walk. I mean if one of us gets some kind of tendonitis or something and we can't finish, then that is just more time to goof around. It would be more costly, but you are only going to be there once.

I mean, as far as battery life, the Chinese phones from OnePlus, they last longer than anybody else's. It's a, what's it called? Silicon and carbon battery. It's a brand new technology that they're using. But I'm fascinated this morning about everybody's interest in the translation features. I was lucky, I grew up in a multi-lingual environment. And it doesn't bother me when I see signs in Spanish or signs in French and there are translations going on or an announcement in another language. And that does bother, that deeply unsettles some people, it really does. I had a friend who, when she looked at the hospital, it was on one side of the emergency room, there was the marquee that sticks out of the emergency room, was in Spanish. And that inflamed her. And a lot of these people who don't speak any other languages are the first to say, well, why can't you speak English? Why can't you speak English? You know, it's like, but then again, I was brought up differently. So it doesn't bother me as much. But I do recognize that there's a fear to it. And it's unsettling for them. And that's too bad.

I watched some of it, it was the middle of our dinner time so I was actually preparing our evening meal. But the bits that I watched, they kept on about how fantastic the camera was in the new phone. And all of this, blah blah blah and I was thinking, this is all stuff we've seen before. I'm an iPhone 16 Pro Max user, so I've got last year's iPhone. And to be honest, I didn't feel there was much news out of any of the devices. Yeah, the iPhone Air bit of dinner, but I didn't like the camera bezel sticking out the back. So yeah, it's thin but it's still got that big strip of camera stuck out the back that I don't like. They haven't flattened that out, that would have been more a row. But I don't see me actually running this year to upgrade to any of the new iPhones. I think I'll probably just keep the 16 and skip this one and see what happens with the 18. And yeah, I was just a wee though, because I bought a pair of the iPad Pro Max headphones. So it was a set of the cans, bought those the other week to go with my new MacBook Air. And I'll be glad that they didn't bring out new version of those because I only bought them a week or so ago. Of course I could have taken them back and changed them, but I was kind of pleased at that. But no, I wasn't right to be honest, I just failed at the stuff we had changed before. And the translation, I still think they can't do a Scottish accent. They really don't, that's the only thing I'd say to you, they can't interpret the Scottish accent. They can't seem to cope with local dialects, that for me is one of the big problems with a lot of these AI devices. The way they eat in my house is getting better at it. And I don't think it's, it's not too bad, but I still think it could be better. So yeah, that's just my opinion, but yeah, I'll be giving it a miss this time I think.

That's a real good phone. Nice big screen on it and everything else I too Want the translating headphones Absolutely I've had some pairs in the past of ones that are just made for that and they're not very successful I was to test them out because I'm a weakness for Chinese movies and I would test them out just watching TV and it would get like every fifth phrase This wasn't wasn't very useful and I took them to France of me one time and I was trying to listen in on other people to see if they were really working They make you feel comfortable and it was slow.

There was an Apple event yesterday. Why didn't anybody tell me? You know, I watched it while we were driving down to Las Vegas. And all right, so for the watch, I'm not sure. Don't quote me on this. I have no idea. I'm just guessing. But I think maybe with iOS 26, you might be able to listen to music on your current watch to the speaker. Again, they didn't say anything about it, but they were talking about their new stuff. So you might be able to do it with the old watch with an update. So we'll have to wait and see on that one. The new things that came on the watch, I think they increased the brightness, I'm not sure on that one, to 3,000 nits or something. They increased the refresh rate so you can actually have the second countdown. But it's going to help with the battery life. The battery life is a little bit longer, I believe, 40 hours or 42 hours now. They added the satellite communications to the watch where it was just on the phone before. So that's something new. And then, let's see, 5G? I think they added 5G to the watch that it didn't have before because my watch only has 4G for the cellular. So they did add that stuff. The black one that came out with last year, and I really like the black one too. And they kept it the same price, $799 for the Ultra. But I held firm. I didn't get the new watch. The phone, oh man, they had to come out with an orange phone. I really like that orange phone. The one thing they came out with that I really like, and they came out with it on all the phones, is that new sensor on the front of the phone that will give you a much wider selfie. So if you get three or four people in there, the phone will see that there's three or four people, and it will adjust and give you a more wide angle shot, where if it's just you, it'll expand out. So it's just you. There's a little bit of face tracking keeps you centered in the picture. Oops, let me grab one here."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-09-10T05:55:22+00:00","id":36472,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":36471,"text":" All right, so that's one thing that the new phone came out with that I like. I like that big bump on the back, they stretched it out, but then they put that plastic or whatever around the edge, kind of like what's on the watch, the ultras, to improve your antenna reception. So that's another nice feature. Plus they put the, well they're making them out of aluminum now, and they put some kind of new ionized water system inside the case to help with heat dissipation, so it's supposed to really increase the length of time you can really push these phones to the limit. It's supposed to, you know, not about keeping it cooler, it's going to keep the insides cooler, you know, it's going to make your phone a little bit warmer because it's going to spread it out over the entire phone. But it's supposed to help increase performance by up to 40% or something. And then all the three cameras on the back of the phone are going to 48 megapixel plus, they're having more AI involvement in it. With the, you can get up to 8x optical zoom with the zoom camera rather than just the 5x optical zoom, so that's nice. And, I mean they had me at orange, but I didn't get it, I didn't get it, I held off, I said no, no, I'm not going to do it, I'm not going to do it, at least not yet, I don't know, maybe later on, maybe for Christmas or something. But, so they got that, they got more battery life in there because they're able to put more stuff up near the camera so they're able to get a bigger battery in the phone, so that'll help increase the battery life plus with the new processors. So, they're going to be a little more efficiency, so that'll help with the battery life. So yeah, there was enough to peak my interest, but not enough to make me pull the trigger yesterday. Normally I would just because of the camera, especially that frontward facing camera. The thing that I already ordered that I've got being delivered, whoops, going to grab another one."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-09-10T05:57:12+00:00","id":36473,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":36472,"text":" Okay, Daryl is back.

And I'm very thankful for that because I heard that some people get it and it feels like it got run over by a truck. I heard some people get it and it just feels like a little cold.

Okay, next up we're going to go to Bill. N9-0FU. Good morning Bill, how's everything going with you? Did you have the opportunity to watch the Apple event yesterday? I'm assuming you did. What were your thoughts? My thoughts, the new watch looks very cool. I don't really see any new stuff that they added to it. It looks very cool though. That black color I think looks really cool for an Ultra. The ability to listen to music out of your speaker on your watch, why is it that only certain watches can do that? I mean the speaker on the Ultra, even on the one I have, is excellent. Why can't I play music out of the one that I've got? I don't understand. I mean the app is there, the speaker is there.

You know, we're pretty much Apple people at our house. My wife has the computer, I have the computer. Both have iPads, we both have the iPhones. We've got a 16, I've got a 15 phone, I think it's called. And, you know, I, you know, I don't like other computers. I probably don't give money for at least five years, as long as it does what I want it to do. I'm happy with it. One thing I have noticed about Apple is longevity is made back to why I buy Apple products. They last longer than I get a phone, you know, with the computers or anything else. So that's the reason I buy them. And they're easy. Would I go out and buy a 17 right now? iPhone 17? No. I mean, I was almost caught up when I bought this phone about a year and a half ago. But I will keep it for a long time to come. So it would probably be like a 19 or 20 or something like that if I bothered at all. Because, you know, Apple might just invent something that I don't like. I might go back to Android and never know. But, yeah, you know, translation thing, I could feel less about it. You know, I hear people talking in different languages all the time. They just, I don't get shit what they say. It's very narrow. So I don't listen to what most people say in English, mom. I'm in public. So I don't worry about that too much. I would like to see though, I go to foreign sites on the web, or I get a message on Flickr from somebody from Germany or Spain or something like that. And I wish it just automatically translated into English for me. I think that would be easy to do. Instead of me having to grab the text and throw it into Google Translator or something like that. Only reset. This is repeater station key. Now my, one thing that I'm very big on is AirPods. Located in Shelton, and that's all I've used for quite a few years now. It's wonderful. You know, you're shot down the truck at the house anywhere I go. Comfortable, lightweight, and I'm using usually five, six, seven hours a day. So long as they do what I like to have to do, I would probably buy a pair once these go to the place. But not to the translation. So yesterday, one more reset. It was a rough day, really rough day. I wound up breaking down, spent five hours trying to get the repair done. Barely moved back to the yard before my time was up. I was a tired puppy when I got back to the house. And I had plans. You know, I bought a new chair, my computer chair for my learning. It was something really nice and comfortable. The Everly was kind of getting shot. The little hydraulic jack on the bottom of it wasn't working correctly. And so I looked right to the local office depot, looked in the chairs, and wanted something really decent. You know, that's five, six hundred dollars for that chair. Well, I'm not going to do that. So I did something I've never done before. I ordered a chair off of Amazon. It got really good ratings and had everything I wanted. Supposedly was comfortable enough and it was sent to me. By UPS. And it finally came yesterday, the day before yesterday. And I opened the door because the UPS guy had just delivered. I looked at the box and it's, the box had kind of destroyed. It was holes in it, papers peeled off, the lid was opened. So I, I have, you know, I don't know if I did good or not because I was trying to get it in size. The heavy chair weighs like 80 pounds. And the UPS guy, you know, we saw him and tried to get it, you know, in the house. And he came back over and we carried him to the house. I thought that was kind of nice of him. So, you know, we didn't play together yesterday because that was the plan. We played together when we get home. I guess we'll have to do it today and see if there's any missing parts. And then today, it's been a good day getting up here, but, I've been stuck in a traffic jam since the beginning of the night. That's what, 70 degrees now. I'm just now rolling. So it looks like I'm going to get back to it again today. Anyhow, let me get back to you. KPZ on edge, take it away, gang.

Because with a phone so big sometimes you can't get it in your pocket. It's just a carrot in your hand. Depending on the case you've got. I've got like a wallet case. I think that will be good when the Flip comes out. That will be cool. It's just something that, I've had them in the past but it's nothing like today. I'm not going to tell Dee, you know what I mean. I think that's exciting whenever that happens. Kind of like when I get a phone is when I get one or something is wrong and I need something, Daryl. I was going to tell Dee, I know what it is Dee. My wife is from Queens. That's an accent, you know. She had to learn how to talk when she came down south but that's okay. She doesn't think she's lost it but she's plenty loud, believe me. That's why she's the teacher. She can be heard from miles away in the class. But yeah, like she used to say, hot to work. I was like, what? Oh, maybe. But other than that, just eating breakfast, Daryl. It was raining this morning pretty good. So anyway, went to the doctor yesterday. Got to go pick up a prescription today and I got my vaccines. I had to get a darn prescription, Daryl, to get the COVID shot. But they handled that at the pharmacy so I got it at my flu shot and got those taken care of. But it's a shame, man.

And the other rooster was getting really, really loud so we gifted him. We live in a neighborhood. We don't want to make our neighbors up at a crowing rooster. Anyhow, they're just eggs. We've had them for Mother's Day and they haven't caught a lamb yet but it should be any day. Alright, see you. This is repeater station key. Interesting. A lot of people are doing that too. A lot of municipalities have got rules that allow for the keeping of a certain amount. You can have them in your backyard if there's only a couple or something like that. I'm not sure what the laws are around here. In my neighborhood, someone could have 20 chickens in their backyard and no one's going to really kick up the stink over it. You might get the scatter little rat Karen that wants to bitch about everything. But we don't have any HOAs in Canada. I don't think that's a thing in Canada, thankfully. And when you buy a house, it's your house. There's no HOA fees and all this kind of garbage. I don't believe in that one bit. If you buy a house, I mean if I bought a house, I'm not going to have some little organization, some little neighborhood group that's going to dictate to me what I can do with my house and what I can't. I mean that's what apartments are for, right? You get an apartment, the owner of the building can dictate what you do and what you can't do. So you get sick of an apartment, you get sick of that dictatorship. And you go and you buy a house and all of a sudden some group in your neighborhood can bitch and complain about everything you do around your yard and your driveway and the look of your vehicle. And they just bitch and complain. And they can fine you for stuff that they don't like? Give me a break. I wouldn't get along with an HOA very easily, I don't think. I'm lucky I can get along with my own damn neighbors. But yeah, around here people just don't care. You do you, you know? And a buddy of mine down the road actually, he has 20 or 30 chickens and a couple of roosters and he doesn't even live close to me on the road. He lives down at the other end. There's like 50 or 70 houses in between where he lives and where I live. And then when I'm out on the deck early in the mornings, I can hear his roosters all the way down the road. I'm thinking to myself, like, next door neighbors down here must have drove crazy with the roosters because you've got a couple of them and they try to outcrow each other. And once one starts, the other one ends up and they eventually just get louder. And I don't know if it's a dominant thing or what it is, but either way, man, roosters can be real noisy.

My birthday is on the 20th and I get it on the 19th. All right earbuds, just because I'm due for a new set, they get the H3 chip in it, which is supposed to help with the sound processing. Anxious to try out the new earbuds. They've got some foam in it, so hopefully that will help keep them, make them feel like they're not going to fall out of my ear any second. I'm always worried I'm going to lose it. I do like the translation. I think it's cool that you'll be able to, you know, some of them will just be able to talk to you and then the earbuds will pick up that conversation and then it will translate for you directly in your ear so you don't even have to pull out your phone. You only have to pull out your phone if you want to communicate back to them and then they can read it. But I thought, well it was just rumored and I don't know if I'd want to do this, but you know I thought that you're going to be able to take one of your earbuds out, put it, you know give it to the other person so they could put one here, one of your ear pods in their ear and you guys could have a conversation back and forth. Of course if the other person has AirPods Pro 3 they'll be able to, you know, do the same thing that you're doing and you guys can have a regular conversation without having to pull out the phone and you know read each other's translations. So that's kind of cool. I like the 8 to 10 hour battery life on a single recharge. You know that's one of the things that the H3 is going to give you a better battery life and maybe a different kind of battery in there. So looking forward to the AirPods. Like I said I got them coming. They'll be there when I'm there and but like I said I didn't get the phone, I didn't get the watch. I may at some point in the future but right now I'm just looking forward to getting my AirPods Pro 3. Alright, I think there was something else I was going to say but I don't remember so I'll save it for the next go around. Oh yeah I wanted to, you know, we're looking forward to the translation device on the AirPods Pro 3 so I can understand Chuck when he's talking deep southern. I hope they translate deep southern. So there you go. Thank you. This is repeater station Kilo 7 November Quebec, Nevada. Oh man that's funny. Yeah it seems like that's the feature everybody's talking about is the translation feature. You know it'd be nice to be able to walk around Costco and you know hear what everybody in these foreign languages are all saying and or if you know you're ordering food at the Chinese food store and you know you're just stood up and they're going back and forth with each other in their own language. That would be awesome to be able to hear in plain English. I think there's a lot of times that would come in handy especially if you don't have to auto select the language you know if you could just have them in your ears and any foreign language that it hears it just translates it into English. I think that'd be awesome but something tells me you're going to need to open an app and preselect what language you want to translate to and from you know so it may not be just as fluid as getting to hear everything that everybody's saying around you. But I guess we will see. Hopefully you encounter some foreign language speaking people. I know Trump is really narrowing down how many of those are in your country but apparently the war on Chicago has started. So I was saying to Rick earlier that the tent cities and stuff are probably going to be going bye bye pretty soon because ICE are ready to go. The National Guard are ready to go. So apparently he got some ruling from the Supreme Court that makes it okay for him to do what he's doing with mass immigration and all that mass deportation of immigrants and stuff. So I guess we shall see. All right ladies and gentlemen we are an hour and 20 minutes into the net and we finally reached the bottom of the list.

I go beyond that. I see good in everyone. I try to see good in conversations. I try not to reflect on our differences but on what we are common denominator. And you know, people can always relate to something in another human being, always. Even if we breathe the same air, we are in common, we live in the same earth. Something, something is common, you know. And that's how I feel about that. So you know, I have my little phone here. Well, it's not so little. It's kind of heavy. If I hit someone over the head with it, I'll probably knock them out. So it's a clunker, you know. But I really enjoy the AI in it, the chat box and different things that's coming along in technology. It does, you know, help out a lot of different things, especially when I'm trying to get somewhere where I'm not familiar with and I use it for guidance for maps and stuff like that. Cool. And my, my, my, Alexa, if she hears me, she'll start talking, you know, so I have to say her name low. So I always use her. She tells me when my packages are coming in, how close they are. She even tells you when it's around the corner. All your packages are around the corner, blah, blah, blah. And I'm okay. That's nice. And I could also look at the map to see how far away there's two or three stops away or so far. Anyway, I don't have much to say. This is Kayan for LBS. Back to you, Daryl.

And if you don't have that, you can't... you've nothing. You've got to walk away or you're supposed to as a cop. But I see these videos online man, and I mean don't get me wrong, these guys that are making these videos, they're intentionally baiting police. They're going to these places with the cameras hoping that someone is going to violate their rights so they can get a lawsuit. But the fact of the matter is, a lot of these cops are tyrants and they'll violate your rights until you get a supervisor there and the supervisor usually tells them yeah the person is in the right blah blah blah and the cop gets a bit of an education. But man, like some of the cops you see, and they'll try and intimidate you like get right up in your face and you can back off and they'll keep approaching you. Personally I don't think that's cool. If you're needing to have a conversation with me, you can do it from 3 or 4 feet back. You don't need to be right up in my grill. Because that's going to piss me off. And that's what they're waiting for. These cops are waiting for someone to push them. Push them back. Because that's assault on a cop, right? And that's a serious charge. But you've got these guys getting right up in your face like talking really loud and that's going to piss... that would piss me off. It really would. And I don't know if I could literally hold my tongue in that situation. But if you like even brush against a cop like are they that much of a group of pussies that they can't take someone brushing up against them without their charging that person with assault on a cop? Like are you that weak of a person? And it's probably not that weak of a person because they just want to charge you with something. And they're only too happy to have you brushing against their sleeve as assault. And I don't get that. That should be against the law too. Because that's baiting a person. You're getting right up in their face. I mean spitting while you're talking. Oh man. That would just... It'd make me so angry. AA4HI. Chuck, did you guys do that kind of stuff when you were in law enforcement? Like get right up in someone's grill when you're talking to them and then they'd back off and you'd get right up in the middle again?

You know, in LA, ICE and the police and everything have been using racial profiling to stop and detain people and then question them and determine if they are legal immigrants or not. And even when you do prove that you're illegal immigrants, ICE has still been making arrests, they've been cutting them into tension. And sometimes you get out, sometimes you don't, you know, depends on the situation, I guess. So a federal judge said you can't do that and barred LA from doing that. And then they came back yesterday and stated that, the Supreme Court stated, said, yeah, we can do that. Now they didn't give a reason at all other than, yeah, you can violate your Fourth Amendment rights and the police can. I mean, it's just like, you know, if I got pulled over and the police officer comes up to me and starts questioning me and says I'm detained and I asked what for and he says, you know, you're sufficient of being a foreigner, you look like a foreigner. Or I didn't, you're too fast. So I think you're probably committing shoplifting crimes or stealing beef jerky and candy bars from the store down the street. Were you there any time recently?

And when they're racially co-violin, if the man is an actual US citizen, is his rights being violated, which they are. But I will even submit that the foreigner, the illegal alien that's in this country that happens to, he's losing his rights too.

So he's definitely lining his own pockets. And in regard to relationships between Canada and the United States, the most recent deal that Trump couldn't remember, conveniently, who signed it, Trump did in his last presidency, signed the deal with Canada, the last deal with Canada. And we didn't have massive sweeping tariffs against the United States. We had fair trade agreements. I mean, we were buying and selling multi-eyes of billions of dollars of goods. And basically what Trump has done has negatively impacted the United States' relationship with all these other countries. I doubt Canada will ever trust the United States again after what Trump has done. I mean, everyone's entitled to their own opinion, but, you know, opinions to a certain extent have got to be based in fact as well. And just in his crypto schemes alone, he's made $1.2 billion in the last month alone. So I'm not sure where all the good comes from or the good plan, but I think he's going to end up being remembered as the worst president in American history just based on all the crazy crap that he's pulled just in the last few months alone. I mean, he ran his campaign on the fact that he was going to stop all these wars. He was going to bring food prices and gas prices down. All of those things have soared in price and cost since he's been president. He has stopped none of the wars that he claimed that he'd stop on day one. And now he's basically indiscriminately rounding up anybody who's not white and attempting to deport all of those people, including Canadian citizens who have just been visiting the United States. In some cases, there was even two cases where children were rounded up. And in one case, an ICE agent took a teddy bear from a five-year-old detainee. And there was something to do with the milk or something for an infant that they weren't allowed to have or whatever it was. I can't remember the details on that one. But I remember the incident where ICE took a teddy bear from a five-year-old Canadian kid that was detained.

What they've been doing in the past is they'll bring their parents over here and then they'll wait ten years and then their parents move back to the country they came from but they still file their tax reports in Canada so they get the old age security benefits and they send it right back to their country.

You get paid under the table. So you get paid, the companies don't report the employees that are getting paid under the table. They just pay them cash and then there's no record of that employee. But what's happening over the and or you can pay someone as a contractor and if you're paid as a contractor they don't need your SIN number. They just cut you a check and you're paid and they on their income taxes they put in that they paid a contractor and this is the contractors name and blah blah blah. And then should Revenue Canada who is the Canadian version of the IRS should they want to come after you you know they can but without a SIN number and without linking you to the government system via your SIN number you're basically a ghost. Right? So you can look for these jobs like construction is one, fishery is one, cab driver is another. These are companies that you're technically a contractor when you work for them. So they can report that they paid X amount of dollars to a certain contractor but there's no taxes as such. You're only paying your company's taxes and that's it right? So the link to me let's say as a person without a SIN number would be nil because how are they going to track you down right? And there's not a whole lot of companies that will still pay under the table but there are some and I know of some. I've worked for some. You know pretty much all the work I do is labeled as being the contractor. So people just pay me with cash or a check or whatever for all the computer work that I do and it's my responsibility to report that income to Revenue Canada. So it's an interesting situation.

Yeah, I know. I know officers that are excellent. They're part of our family. And there I guarantee you, there's more good officers out there than there are bad.

They need to be, you know, they need to be on a blacklist where they could never have another law enforcement job again, instead of being fired from one agency and then just going to another and doing the same thing they've done before. So that was my point there. And then the last thing I was saying, and I'm sorry, I timed out, I'm using another program in a little bit of time around it. I'll reset to this last part. I was saying when it comes to immigrants, I'm not talking about Canada. I'm just talking about the United States, the constitution. I want to emphasize again, doesn't say US citizens, people of the United States are the only ones that have these constitutional rights. It's any person who's in the boundaries of the United States have these constitutional rights that's in the constitution. And when the forefathers signed the Declaration of Independence and started this country, they were under the premise that the people that were going to come to this country are immigrants. That's how the United States was developed. That's how we are what we are today is through all the our ancestors that will support that as they came here to make a new life in the United States. So thank God for the Constitution. Thank God for the rights of the they're given to these people. You know, I'm not saying that they need to go or they need to stay. But they do need their rights. And just like Gray was talking about, you know, due process, hearing, and if they're here, the quarter, they don't report them back to the place where wherever they want to go. I mean, the United States wants them to go. They deported back from country where they came from. But there's caveats there too, you know, one more was said. They got political asylum because they were in danger if they went back to that country. And it's been granted, you know, be it whatever president that should be on until we can figure out what the hell to do with them. But anyways, that was basically what I wanted to say. Thanks a lot.

And then they could be seen laughing together as they were driving away in the presidential limo when Putin was asked if he'd stopped killing individuals or, you know, indiscriminately killing citizens in Ukraine. He shrugged his shoulders and just turned his head and chuckled about it. And since then, I mean, he's unleashed more hell than he's ever released in Ukraine since the war started four years ago.

Regarding all these videos, I have no doubt that Bill saw videos where they most definitely the reorder the other person was most definitely trying to attempt police officer and they get really good things happen. No doubt my mind. I've seen that happen. For every one of them. I see can, whether the during a constitutional audit, you're standing on a public street, video reporting, whatever the hell they want to report because they are on the public public street. You can't trespass eyes can't trespass camera. And the officer comes up and it's fully recorded the time they're sitting there at the time when the police officer comes up, the interaction and what happens at the end. And there's a lot of them where the police officers do try to give unlawful orders and violate the constitutional rights. Now these officers that are doing this and some of them are getting sued, and the cities or may I say the taxpayers are paying the bill for instead of getting rid of that officer, they leave them on. It happens again and again and again. And this is a big problem we have we need stable, fully functional officers on the force. We don't need that casers or class A, you know, alpha males that you know, they think they can do whatever the hell they want when they want. And then when they do get caught, they should be fired, but also they should be caught on the list. You know, this means he can get another law enforcement job anywhere in the country. That I'd be pretty happy with the police force because I trust him a whole lot more than I do now. Now mind you, I'm not saying all police officers are bad. I held my we're related to the police officers a hell of a dude. And there's a lot of other police officers out there that are absolutely wonderful. But that one or 2% make it really difficult for all the ones that are doing or doing their job correctly. So that's my take on that particular thing. And then I'm still going to revert back to the Constitution once again, when it comes to illegal anywhere again. So the Constitution was was was signed.

Good morning. Name here is Rick. Just was listening to all the comments. Throwing another shoe out here. One of the things I like about Donald Trump is getting some stuff done. There's some things he agrees with, disagree with, but at least he's doing something rather than lining his own pockets with money, which is what we've seen between that and the competency. I'm a Republican, and I've got to tell you, quite frankly, the Republican presidents we've had in a number of years have been incompetent, lazy, and selfish. And so I'm glad to see somebody in there who wants to try to do something for the country and leave a legacy behind him that's going to help us. Actually, I've voted Democratic as well, and I don't think that the Republicans have all the good ideas. But right now they have most of the good ideas of what needs to be done right now. I know there's some people from Canada in here. I've got to tell you what, I've come out of the lumber industry, and if you want to talk about tariffs and trades, I'd be glad to talk to you, but I spent 40 years in the industry, and Canada screwed over the United States year after year after year with lumber imports and things. So I'm kind of glad the shoes go the other way, and I'm glad that you can feel the pain for a while. I know there's some other things in there that probably have to change, but again, finally it's going the other direction. And we have a huge deficit down here because we've been supporting all the other countries of the world with defense planning, and so now it's everybody's time to pony up and pay your own debt.

So I figured I would jump on now. But I have a different work schedule, so I'm quite a bit later than the morning brew, which is my normal check-in now these days. Unfortunately, I don't think I'll be getting in on there on the morning brew anymore. But anyway, it's on my way to work here. Not much going on. Been playing on my plasma table lately, trying to do some art, metal art, and maybe get a little Etsy store going. I mean, I've got a few items up already, but not a whole lot. It's mostly for fun. I've been drawing on the computer for a long time. I'm doing a lot of steel work previously. I'm into trucking now. But anyway, I still kept the trade. So I finally got a plasma table in my garage and have been playing with it quite a bit, trying to make all kinds of neat stuff. But anyway, I'll go ahead and hand it back to you guys here.

She has an album of all songs that she's written, and it's really good, so I'm really excited to feature that. So I'm working on setting that up right now. So hope some of you will listen in this afternoon. KC7FMW back to net. And Robert, I might even stick in Norah Jones' if you want to listen to that too. KC7FMW back to net. I love me, sir. Norah Jones, that's for sure. What a great voice. It's hard to believe that she's Ravi Shankar's daughter. It absolutely is. Anyway, yeah, you mentioned you feel like you're getting older.

He's, you know, detaining people, detentions first, ask questions later, you know, that type of thing. I mean, there are parallels, but they're not exact replicas of what he did. But, you know, if given the opportunity and there wouldn't be so much backlash, I could see Trump doing that. I really could, man. The man doesn't care about the people. He doesn't care about individuals, about the poor, about the homeless. Nah, he says, get out of D.C. or we'll lock you up for being homeless. You know, he's a bad guy, man. I think he's a bad guy.

Actually, I have them both on, believe it or not. Anyhow, neither one of the dang apps work, but that's just the way things work for me. Yeah, you know, everybody has their thoughts and their opinions. I'm just like no other. I express mine pretty loud sometimes. So, it's interesting to hear other people's thoughts. Dale, I did need to correct you on one thing, buddy. You were talking about his Bitcoin stuff. From what I can gather and read, his kids do that stuff. I mean, he don't have nothing to do with it. Now, that's just, you know, what I'm quickly reading because you had mentioned that. I was like, ah, I thought he didn't have anything to do with it. And you can't say the name because his kids have the same name. I get where you're coming from. I totally understand, like the merch. Totally understand. No American president has ever done it before. Doesn't mean it can't be done. Perhaps it shouldn't be done for public relations with things. But it works for this guy. You can't say it doesn't work. It works. Would Biden be able to do that? I don't think he had the persona to pull that off. Bill Clinton could have. Obama could have. Both of those two guys. I mean, I remember Clinton. I was young, but he was the rock star. I think it was on Jay Leno's show. I remember when he got on there, it was a saxophone. Man, I was like, that's my president. And I wasn't even a Democrat. Of course, at that point, I'm not even sure what a Democrat was. I was pretty young. I mean, let's see, 92, I would have been 11, 12 years old. Anyhow, I do remember that. So, yeah, I mean, the merch, if it works, it works. I mean, it's not illegal. He's not conning anybody out of anything. He's not forcing anybody to wear it or buy it. But he's selling a truckload of it. Especially down here, you know, like where I live at, I told you all, it's Republican through and through just about. Man, you can't drive down any street without seeing something Trump. You just can't. It's all over the place. So, like it or hate it, if man's freaking smart or his manager or whoever came up with that idea, I mean, they're on it. You have to give him that. It really makes me interested what the 2028 election is going to be like. I mean, because you're getting a completely new face, hopefully, on both sides of the aisle. I have a feeling you'll see J.D. Vance, but he's still considered a new face because he's really never been around. And we all know that the Vice President is really just a placeholder seat. He has no willpower. How did John Adams put it? The most unimportant job in the world, I believe, is how he put it. So, it has changed a bit since then, but just my thoughts too. So, there you go. I'll see you in 73 and pass it back. You all have a great, I think today is Wednesday. Have a great Wednesday.

Yeah, I tried about six times I finally got in. I guess everybody was done. Anyway, Linda Lou and I, KC7YTD, we're going over to rehab for me, and then we're going to go to a class on better health, I guess. They said they would not pay for the class. The insurance wouldn't pay for the class unless I went to the rehab first. So that's what we're going to do. I'm going to do, I guess Linda Lou will just have to wait, keep herself busy. Well, I'm doing my 3,000 steps over there, and then we'll go to the class. And then I told her I'd probably take her out to lunch. There's supposed to be a new Chinese restaurant over here. It's supposed to be pretty good by Costco. So I'm going to go check that out. And I finally got Rumba going this morning. I tried to get her going. She wouldn't go, and she was talking to me, but I couldn't understand what she was saying. I picked her up, and there was a zip drive or whatever caught in her little brush. I took that off, and it must be my son. I must have brought that over here. I don't know where that come from. I've got some of those downstairs on the computer, but I don't generally have them here up where I'm at. So I'll have to make sure when he comes over that zip drive belongs to him.

Big Pharma wants their share. You know, a lot of the stuff isn't needed. You know, when you say you don't need it, you still want to give it because they're getting kicked. Big Pharma's getting kickbacks or the hospitals getting kicked back by pushing this stuff. You know, so, you know, and of course they're charging the insurance companies which are paying for it because, well, it's needed by the patient. You know, even if it isn't, they want their fair share and then some. So, you know, and like I said, they didn't put any sutures or staples in the incision. There's no oozing from it right now. So I think they must have used a super glue or something because I know that's a widespread thing they do use now. And the doctor, the surgeon just says, well, you can stay on a liquid diet for a while. You can start slowly into, you know, soft foods, anything you can squish through a fork or whatever, you know, like mashed potatoes, any cooked vegetables except corn because corn still has some of the huskies on it and that might be damaging so I can't eat that for a while. But I can have like coffee and toast in the morning because a lot of times, you know, I dump my toast in the coffee. It's going to be soft.

That could have been the major portion of your problems I'm sure. Cause that was a friend of mine who lives over in Rochester down by me here in Washington. That was his problem. Nothing but corrosion on the PL 239 input at the bottom of the antenna. And he was getting feedback, city, in all of his stereo system when he keyed up. And we went up and I think my son went up on top of the roof at that time. And we took it down and looked at it and cleaned it up and I don't know if he ever reconnected but tried to hook him up with a G5. But you know things just didn't seem to work out the same for him but I, you know. Anyway we're back. We're doing good and we'll be back on HF here in the not too distant future.

You know, why even think about asking me about it? Because I don't need it. There's no pain. For over four days, you know, or five days probably, I didn't have any pain. It was just the very first day after, you know, they had me on a pain pump thing in my shoulder. And as needed, you know, no more than ten minutes apart. You had to go at least ten minutes before you pump it again. But it made me sick. I think I only did it three or four times. And then got nauseated and sick and then got off of that crap.

Had a little rain last night and that's not bad. My wife and I left last friday for Carcross which is about an hour's drive from here. And we did some volunteering for the Klondike Road Relay. Check out klondikeroadrelay.com And that was successful and fun. And the checkpoint volunteers we were with, they did a big brunch afterwards. Pulled out kind of a blackstone unit. Bacon and eggs and toast and hash browns. That was very nice. The weather was perfect and the surroundings were amazing. Very lucky. My wife and I then scoped out campground closer to where we wanted to be and then head back to where we dropped our camper and picked that up and brought that back and found a spot in town. At that point in time we've been up since 4 a.m. with about a five hour sleep and I would say it was about 1 p.m. when we were back there. And we were tired. But it was the most beautiful day for boating as well so we decided that we would catch another wind and take advantage of the nice weather. Because we were just going to really chill out and we figured we could do that on the boat if we just put a bit of energy in. And that was good decisions. We had a couple more good boat days after that. And then back to Whitehorse yesterday just in time to get cleaned up for a bank appointment which went really well as well.

And I have to admit, I'm not quite sure, I'm not looking at a map of Car Crosses at the bottom of the lake or if it's the next thing up where they went to see taxidermists and things like that. But if Car Cross is where I think it is, the gold rush that went up the White Pass and across the lakes and down the river went through Car Cross. I remember Old Bridge there, actually in a small town, tourist even, not a tourist town by any means. Maybe it is today. Anyway, it was a nice trip to see Car Cross, cultural things. I think they just let me go here, they will. And it's a, hopefully it has nice weather. We had beautiful weather when I was there. And when I look at the history of that area, you know, the gold rush people went through there. It's amazing. I had family that went to Dawson Creek, but they went up to be merchants, not to hunt for gold. And of course, more people made money as merchants and as gold diggers. And I don't think my family made a lot of money, but it was, if you think about it, Nordstrom's here in Seattle, a big store. People from the country know Nordstrom's. He made money, starting money selling to the gold rush folks. So you never know how it all ties together, Nordstrom's ties to Car Cross one way or another.

In that little park I actually slept in this morning. I didn't make the evening net, I'm putting the nine o'clock net. I'm usually making that and the nine pm net, but no, I couldn't wake up this morning. So I had to work a bit later today as my punishment. So that was a bit of a slog this afternoon, but not too bad. The WX has changed completely today, it's slightly both lovely and sunny. It was a nice bright morning, but the days went on, the clouds gathered, and now it is raining and it's very dark out there, so it actually feels like a no-burt evening, because it's so dark and I've actually got a light on here in the shack, just a little desk lamp, and it's giving me that winter kind of feel. Yeah, just get the winterly lights out and all of that as well. And then, pooped on there with those books. Yeah, maybe time for a kindle show, I'm only kidding, I know that would start a whole debate, but I've got quite a number of books myself and I keep saying, oh I should clear them out, but no, you can never part with a book. You can always come in handy for something, even if it's just to hold something up. I'll find anyway, but apart from that Jack, we're doing some FPA today, and since I haven't seen that date, I've just kept searching for them. I've mainly been sitting in the land between Ainsley and the pig band, and I've had contacts into Europe, and I get one American contact, where I've sort of been anything to do, and I've got that around about lunchtime, so that wasn't too bad.

Thank goodness you reminded me it was picture day because yes, I had my picture taken as well, all the kids, all the staff. And there have been years when I've shown up kind of scruffy looking. So anyway, I'm all decked out ready for the picture. Interesting story about the pop-off valve at the gas station because there's a timely part to this. But first, it was 10 or maybe 15 years ago. I think my daughter was really young and I was like late to pick her up at school something. And I drove off from the 7-Eleven and popped the hose off. Crap. Got out, went in. They knew me there because I stopped there to get gas all the time. And the gal came out with me and took it and said, and I said, all right, you want my contacts in folks? I want to make this right. And she said, no, don't worry about it. They pop them right back together. Don't worry about it. I was like, great. And she was, because I felt like an ass and you know, she made me feel better about it. Well, come to modern day about 10 days ago, my wife did it at another gas station. Popped it off and she gave them her info and it turns out they wanted 350 bucks for that repair. So I wonder, you know, which was the true story.

Except I took a trip to Starbucks, I went to the bank, so... and the lids don't seem to fit on their tall drinks quite right, because I had two spills on the way home and one... this won't stay on. And so I, um... for my wife, her latte, and uh... got grabbed by the very base to not spill. Anyway... a little clean up there. And I would have checked in earlier on Dave, but I kept on waiting for a break in mobile and didn't get it. Anyway, the other big news, I got my driver's license yesterday. I thought I had to make an appointment, I don't. You need an appointment if you're getting enhanced or... take a test. Just walk in, it went quick. It went quick, $129 later. So... that's how quick it was, so uh... and since I had cash, I didn't have to pay like a 5% fee or something, charge fee, but... Anyway, I'm not sure what I'll do today. I got a little thing, a lot of things accomplished yesterday. And uh... it's gonna be a nice day. We'll see, maybe I'll try to get my bike out for a ride. I've never ridden in a long time. Because of my knee and my knee's been fixed now for a while. I'm feeling better, so maybe I can bend it enough to pedal, so... we'll see what happens. Thanks for the net, Dave. Back to you, sir.

KX2CW, Sockatoo-me Sockatoo-me Sockatoo-me. You've got your sweet dippy. Well here's Joan, KX2CW, the mountain is not out. I have not made my first cup of coffee. I came out in time for my normal routine but then I thought I needed to adjust my bookshelf a little bit. And as I moved, I moved it, I have the top couple of layers are not shelves, they're just books. And I had a bookshelf speaker kind of gaffer taped to the edge of the top of the actual wooden structure to act as a book stop. And I thought, you know, I could inch this speaker out a little bit so that the back corner of it could catch and hold the back of a piece of foam that I have to dampen the acoustics in here because my talkback speaker that was audible because it was reflecting off the wall behind me. And so some while ago I put this big piece of foam there so that I keep the talkback speaker from the other receiver in the other room in the null plane of the mic I'm talking on. And so it solved the acoustic reflection in the room so it's no longer audible on mic at all. But in so moving the bookshelf speaker it destabilized the top two layers which I came tumbling down. So imagine me kind of holding my, bracing my arms against the books so that they won't keep falling down even more and worse. But then I can't reach the floor to keep the yoga block up to stick under the central pile. I did manage to do it but I have a pile of books all over the floor behind me so I've restabilized the top shelf and now the cornerstone or the keystone. The keystone is the wide size yoga block in the center. And guess which book is saddled right up? Well actually it's kind of near that, under there. I have my Claire McNabb collection basically most of that top shelf. But next to it is where the first book in my Carl Hasson collection starts. Next, right next to the two Jimmy Buffet books that I have and there's a third one I've read that I know exists a novel. Let's see, something that is, Where's Joe, Where, Whatever Happened to Joe Merchant?

Good morning everyone. It's looking like, well it's fall. Oh dear, I'm just, I looked at the weather forecast, it's all 70s, which, like, be quiet. That's the other channel on the radio telling me it's, I'm WQ 7-H, well, okay, thank you. Amazing, well it's a big plus for me here. Yesterday, the Bluetooth module arrived for the new HF radio, and so we got that plugged in and it was more than happy to connect to my Bose noise reduction headset. It's Bluetooth, and wow, it sure is, it's wonderful, because now I can hear again on HF. Yay! And so it's like, it's like the radio does a nice job of filtering noise, and I have lots of noise, local QRM, and the Bose does a good job of filtering through noise of QRM. So it's a great improvement of working HF. So it was wonderful. I was very excited last night. So we'll see how that works out in the long term, but by golly, for a first run, yay! And there were some people who said, well, you know, your mileage probably, it won't work, because, like, you know, sometimes these radio Bluetooth things are fairly limited, but by golly, it connected quite easily, and so full marks to Yesu for having a decent Bluetooth stack on their shiny new HF radio.

Not a lot going on today. Just dropped my kit off at school and enjoying doing that while I'm on leave for the last couple of weeks. Using my second week off here to relax after moving across the county here. I just moved over to Seabec from Polsboro. Using my second week here to unpack. Just made a brief stop to get some ethanol free gas after I dropped her off from school and now I'm running over to Harbor Freight to get a 30 amp cable for the generator that I have being delivered today. So I'm pretty excited to give that a break and run and then have that ready to go. Because out there power outages are pretty frequent, especially over here on the Kits app and that's why we seem to have a lot of power outages at least in the nearly 15 years I've lived here. So I'm looking forward to messing around with you. But not a whole lot else going on today. Nice day for sure. Nicer than it has been the last couple of days. Although the cool weather has been great for moving and unpacking and detrashing and cleaning and all the things that go with moving. So hard to complain too much. Falls here but without the waterworks that often accompany it here in the pack norwest so I'm not going to complain one bit. Thanks for the shout out there Jack. I appreciate it and I'll check out that slow scan television thing that you were talking about. I've actually done the, my wife, or not my wife, my daughter and I have done the ARIS stuff with the space station and downloaded quite a few images even just using a vertical antenna in my 991 and we've had a lot of fun with that so I'll definitely give that a look.

At 21 I didn't know I'd eventually have a steady job and my job looked after me. I didn't know that. All I cared about then... wow, and it's not... It doesn't seem like that long ago. Yeah, over 20 years ago. But at that time I just thought I just want to stay high every day. It's all I want to do. I just want to wake up and stay laced. I think my brother in his little ways tried to explain to me, Yeah, but that changes when you grow up. You know? You're not the party animal you think you are. It changes. Which is true. So... but yeah... well, let's just say other people kind of thought for me. So obviously I'm thankful for that because I'm gonna... I like my situation now.

As expected, it was hand prep. As I said before, so many of the people who tried to upgrade or to test initially are using hand prep with less than satisfactory results. He is going to take a different approach to study and come back and I expect he will pass eventually. I am heading out to Home Depot to finish up the sync project to return the stuff.

So yeah, I'm somewhere between here and there, but at the moment nowhere. So yeah, I just got myself a new radio today. It's a YESU FP150 RASP. And normally when I talk on this repeater when I'm down near Tacoma, it is all snaps, bops, crackles. And I don't clear up until I'm about in the Sea-Tac area, which I'm kind of coming near. But yeah, all through the tight flats I was listening in and just this, you know, it's still a little pop and crack here and there, but that ASP technology is just amazing. You guys were crystal clear. It sure beats what I was listening to last night with my little ICOM. So definitely have all sorts of good things to say about this radio. And I've only had it in my truck for about, I guess about 35 minutes now. So there's that. And tonight when I get home, I should be having a box waiting for me that will contain an older YESU FP100M or DR, whatever the numbers are, letters are after the numbers. And I'm going to use that to set up a WIRESX node out in the Spanaway area. So I don't have the ability to put up a large antenna or anything, but I'll get it up as high as I can. And since there is no WIRESX anywhere out in that area, I'm going to do my best to provide it. And yeah, that's about all I got right now.

I'm doing a refi on the property, which is gonna really fix things up. I'm just happy as a clam on that because now I can get the little repairs I want on, the house done, taken care of, and I'll be good for another five years. I try to do a refi every five years and it works out pretty good. It only bumped my house payment up 150 bucks more, which is still cheaper than going to an old folks home. Ha, ha, ha. Believe it or not, you go into like Shag, one of those places I went and looked at that a couple months after my wife passed, and yeah, they want $2,300 a month for a little one bedroom squatty apartment and stuff, and you have no room. You got one parking spot and you hope you can get in and out of your car. It is, yeah, it did not make sense. So I pooh-poohed that and decided I'm gonna stay here. Still looking for property, but God, property's gone up so high again. It's ridiculous. Guy's house below me went for $500,000 and this ain't anything compared to what I've got for property up here, so the appraisal is gonna come in pretty nice, which means more money could change, yeah, whatever. Anyhow, gonna reduce my antenna mass and stuff. I got one I really didn't like, one I have to redo. That's the one I cut my finger on. Ha, ha, ha, ha, or should they cut it off? But otherwise, not much else going on, just kind of picking up stuff, writing down and making designs for the eddy, for the camping bit. Not gonna get to use it this year, but at least I'll have it all written up, put together and have it ready to go so come springtime, it's camp, camp, camp, yeah.

Hey, do you do N gauge or do you do H gauge? Let's get back to the modeling model railroading. Yeah, I am not picky about the gauge. I primarily model N scale, and that's simply because I live in a small house, so I need the small trains. My LUB is actually for HO. Those are literally twice the size, but I just don't have any room for them. And not only that, the N scale side of the train community is a much friendlier sort, so I'm going to just stick with the N scale for now. It's a lot of fun. I do modular layouts all over the Puget Sound. The next one we have coming up is a big show up in Linden, Washington, and that one's going to be up at the fairgrounds in the first weekend of October.

It's just a series of squares that allow you to size the different boxes, and then you can print bins that line up and fit into the little squares of the gridfinity. It's a wonderful system, and I know just for the 3D printer alone, we have to order all these little groups of hardware, M3 screws, M2 screws, and M4, M5, and I need a place to store them other than the place that came with it, and this is the way to do it.

You can take a quad from the driveway or a side-by-side or a dirt bike from the driveway and ride it on the road until we get to a trail or you know we can ride around the community similar to what some communities use golf carts for. People in this community use ATVs because there's a lot of forest around here, and there's a lot of trails and stuff. So it's an everyday thing to see, you know, dozens of ATVs on the road up here even though they are off-road vehicles. So I can't have a driver's license for a car, but an off-road vehicle, you don't need that. So I can operate it safely and I have for many years with no issues and people in the community know that I'm visually impaired, you know, yeah, obviously, I'm taking it easy when I'm riding on the pavement and stuff. So there's never been an issue, but the bike has been down the majority of the summer with exhaust issues and that's a difficult one because you got to sometimes take the top off the motor and, you know, mess around with some stuff.

Yeah, let's see what to talk about. My TR9000, I popped the bottom open. Closest to the mic connector, that's my 2 meter all mode 10 watt Kenwood. And I got the mic. There was no connector on the mic but it's also, it was probably wiped and they just pulled it up and sold it at his. As the radio, the eBay description said it was untested because there was no mic or power supply. So it looks really good inside and it probably runs. And the mic connector is sort of reachable. I might pull it out and wire up the 5, 4 wires and a shield or just wait until the connector comes but I think I'd rather get in there and test it and use it. Nice little heat sink on the back and it's got a slide mount for car. And yeah, it'll be a good second radio here that's running this T74. I still haven't called Kenwood to see if they fixed things in California. And I don't really want to send it to you and I have the radio again. But for the F6 that I'm holding, this diamond tri-band HT antenna works fine with it if I just don't crank it down all the way. And the adapters that I have just don't work very well at all. You've probably heard about the Pasternak enterprises that I've looked up. Boy, if you need a connector in any type, in any durability, in any frequency, in any vis-war standard of any connector type. And boy, I had no idea there were so many different kinds of connectors and materials and certifications and for optical and for coax and goodness knows what else. So check out Pasternak. Otherwise, just enjoying the afternoon outside here and transplanting a hydrangea that somebody gave me. And my fig's doing very well. And I'm still moving topsoil around up to the alley and fixing the alley potholes. It makes it dusty up there but it's a smooth diamond. So back to you and to the net.

The repeater operates at a frequency of 146.96 with a negative offset and appeal time of 103.5. All licensed hands 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 to 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 sign with your call sign. That will keep the FCC happy. I'll be compiling with the station that would like to check in and then we'll ask for your reports. If you'd like to check in only, let us know that you'll be in and out, also known as an I.O.

So that'll just be our little secret there. Hi, hi. But how do I hire you to come do that? My car needs that so desperately too. So I'm a little bit envious that you had the time to do that today. Today would have been a perfect day for it too. It was sunny but not too hot, which is a good temperature to get out there and tackle the car cleaning. Good on you, Rebecca, for getting that between the five-year-old, the dog, you. Yeah, it doesn't take long to get dirty and they just get dusty just driving around and that kind of stuff. So good on you for getting out there and doing that. You added some couple new stickers. That's always fun too. That's always a fun treat. And I'm glad you got to talk to your friend for three hours. Isn't that super fun? I love doing that. I have a friend in Texas, very similar thing. He's got a three-year-old and same thing, very busy. So it's always fun when we get to catch up and we always talk forever. So glad you got to treat yourself to that. That's always fun. Good luck washing the dishes there and thanks for dropping by. We'll talk to you again soon. All right, it is 909 p.m. I'm K9MLR at Megan and now we're going to go talk to Mike, KJ7BEU. How's it going, Mike? Can I go to Rebecca? Everybody else out there. And we're about going on into the same thing in my kitchen floor. And here I'll pot 28 beers and Carmen's out in the corner. There's Katrina still around and so there's an espresso corner which has coffee stains and hasn't had a deep corner clean. And then the refrigerator on the other side has a drain, defrosted water all over the floor. Next to the, underneath the cutting board and the silverware drawer and everything. So when food or meat or cheese drops there, guess who wants to walk over and drink, eat the stuff out of the gross water. So yeah, I'll just throw down a towel and start mopping with my foot and leave it for later after I eat. Yeah, it's a nice way to go in the kitchen floor, I guess. Because if you start, if you clean it, you're going to just have to do it all over again. Like Joseph said about her house, I think it was every year she had to get it all over again. Back to the net and oh yeah, I got to check UHF north, northwest of me. UHF, UHF. Okay, it's very quiet and periodic, just look at the sign. And I get great reception south, southeast and northwest. So I was getting Mount Constitution real well tonight, so the weather's really good. I'm going to drop."}]}
