Well, I'll tell you what. I don't know. The merging question, maybe an expert can come in and weigh on that, but given how they are an integrated whole, getting two AIs to share the processing of the question doesn't sound like it sort of makes sense. It's not like you're doing sharing of a CPU time slicing or whatnot. It's like you're walking through this giant maze of neural nodes and it's running a simulation. And while you might parallelize it, I don't know how you would merge two different LLMs, models. It's like the model gets created in this coherent whole and then that's it. Your questions wander and you get the answers out. But I can tell you that they don't learn once they've been taught. That's pretty clear to me. They go through a training phase. They're trained and then they begin processing, giving you their answers. If you want to learn them, you have to physically do that again. They don't learn on the fly. But maybe NQN, if he's still listening, could comment on that. And as for the saving data, you know what? It's very difficult to save data for long, long periods of time. But you know, they did do one where they had that in mind and that is the golden record sitting on the Voyager spacecraft. It's got a, you know, an analog track embedded in the grooves of a golden disk with instructions on how to play it back. It's made to last a long, long time. So there's one way. But yeah, any other media, it's problematic. And it's really cute. I was watching a little clip from Blade Runner 2040, whatever it was. And the guy's going, well, you know, we lost all the data on our spinning disk. So everything's stored on paper nowadays. So any rate, this is repeater station kilo kilo. Of course, paper is also a way of doing it. But that can degrade too. So any rate, if anyone has any more info on the AI thing, merging two LLMs in some manner, pipe up."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-09-27T13:06:48+00:00","id":48001,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":48000,"text":" KK7NQN. Alright, Mal, looks like we're going to get an expert weigh in on this. KK7NQN, what do you got? So yeah, on the AI, the LLMs are right. They don't exactly learn after you've done initial training. The models are on a fixed training, but they do kind of adapt with context. So as the thread continues, they can increase their understanding of the current context that is being passed. So that's why I do modules that have their own individual tasks that they do. The other thing that I do is that way the stored context of the data going into the expected output stays consistent. As far as data sharing, it's kind of difficult because of the different layers of it. The model has its fixed data and the contact is their thread, and when you mix it you get inconsistent outputs. And computers are not a fan of inconsistent outputs. The thing I do to kind of share it is there's a set of tables that has its own table, and each step can look backwards. But the data is never modified in its original place. It is read from one place, modified, put into a new place, and just moves down the chain. So the original data is never malformed. Because again, we need to maintain our context of that thread to make sure that our output is exactly what our scripts and code expect to read. Because again, computers don't have awareness like what a human would have to adapt to different data structures. So yeah, AI with human speech is actually really difficult because slight variances in how stuff is said can cause big problems. Like I was saying, one of the things that I always fight with right now is just slight mishears. Like PSRG and Puget Sound Repeater Group are identified as two separate clubs because the computer hasn't associated that yet. I have to manually write something that does that association, and I just haven't yet. Anyways, KK7, NQN, back to you."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-09-27T13:08:04+00:00","id":48002,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":48001,"text":" Okay, thanks for adding to that. You did drop out just for a little bit there when you were kind of talking about how the merging models issue is problematic, but it sounds like there is a teeny bit of that happening with the context portion of the system, you know, trying to hone in its answer. That's kind of cool, a lot of fun. I haven't used AI. I did tinker with one. I asked it to make a card game and it came up with some fun rules to get started. So that was kind of neat. But otherwise, I have never used AI for much of anything yet. Although, I must say I use Visual Studio to program and it is getting a lot better at filling in things. I asked it to create a \u2013 I told \u2013 I wanted a new class to create this thing called a controller. It has a special task in my system and I had named it something. So it intuited that I was actually making a controller and put the interfaces that I used, my custom interfaces I used on that controller. It pre-populated them. So I was rather impressed with that. I figured something was going on there that normally didn't happen. So that was really cool. I do love that helping me out. But at any rate, hopefully, let's see, Mr. BMY got some extra info there.

But yeah, tons of questions. Certainly, I'll save them for now. But that does answer the questions I had. And really helpful stuff. It's just real fascinating. And on the analog thing, yeah, I think analog's probably going to be the way to go after all this stuff turns to dust eventually. And I remember when they launched those two, Voyager 1 and 2. And they used a gold record. And I thought that was pretty interesting stuff. And they're still out there. They're still operational. So that's kind of neat too. So anyway, I won't hold it up.

I come from the era when you had your Commodore 64 and you'd get the Gazette magazine and there'd be a program there and you could type it in, take a look at it and then modify it, do what you want. I love doing that kind of stuff. So if it's some proprietary API or some rocket science where they don't help you out, it just ain't going to happen here. That's what the AI for me is. I'm just too much of a ludite to dive into that. Yeah, it sounds like you can do it and Hunter is doing it so that is super awesome.

It's like me and my friends are playing it. I'm like, hey, what can I get it to do? And every once in a while it breaks code and I have to call it the debug itself.

They stopped transmitting. After 45 days I take them off my data sheet. Getting a lot of emails around the world actually due to my Pico balloon. It's actually day 73. It circumnavigated the earth 4 times already. And it's now presently, last night it was over upstate New York and today it was mid-Atlantic. So if you have any questions or are interested in the Pico balloons simply check out my QRZ page and drop me a line. I'd be more than happy to try to answer your question. And the E7 NFR group is planning to send up a high altitude balloon in the next couple of weeks. They're still working on a few tweaks.

My name is Tom Tanglewasker-Mike and the call is Victor Alpha 3 Victor Whiskey X-Ray or Victor Echo 3 Victor Whiskey X-Ray. Doesn't really matter, either or, still me. So a few things to discuss this week. The main one right now I'm going to talk about is Typhoon Ragasa, that's also known as Super Typhoon Nando. So the Philippines had a different name for it than the rest of the Pacific area did. But it was a violent typhoon or a category 5 equivalent super typhoon. It's a violent typhoon, depending on who you look at, the Japanese Meteorological Association. They call it a violent typhoon, whereas the Joint Typhoon Warning Center, they're the ones referring to it as a category 5 super typhoon. I formed on the 17th of September and it dissipated as of the 25th of September. And it caused quite a bit of damage.

So according to the JMA, that's the Japanese Meteorological Association, it had a 10 minute sustained wind of 205 km an hour, that's 125 mph and they were giving it a central minimum pressure of 905 HPA, that's 26.72 inches of mercury or 905 millibars. The Joint Typhoon Warning Center is slightly different, their 1 minute sustained winds were 270 km an hour, that's 165 mph. The discrepancy of course is one is a 10 minute sustained wind speed, the other is a 1 minute sustained. So essentially you're looking at a gust, most of the gusts are sort of micro gusts, they're on the order of 10 seconds or so, but the 1 minute sustained winds are sort of what we're used to looking at with the Saffir-Simpson scale, even in Australia they use that for their cyclones. Either way 270 km an hour is the 1 minute sustained winds, that's 165 mph and the pressure from the JTWC, that's the Joint Typhoon Warning Center, that's a little higher at 910 millibars or HPA and that's 26.87 inches of mercury.

The first was the Philippines and the second area that it impacted was Taiwan. And then as a weaker storm it went on to impact China. But still that's the area that bore the brunt of it would have been the Philippines. That's when it came in the absolute strongest. In fact it reached the storm itself reached its strongest strength just before landfall. So to give you an idea of what I've been able to to pull from this. It's estimated the storm caused about a hundred million dollars in damage. And there was there were 28 fatalities reported 213 injuries and there's more than nine people missing. So in the Philippines and northern Luzon they had extensive flooding and landslides. There were 746,000 households in the area that lost power.

And in Hong Kong and Macau, the storm didn't directly impact Hong Kong, but it created the longest closure in the history of the Hong Kong International Airport, which lasted 36 hours. At Macau, they had a red storm surge warning, which was basically you're going to get flooding in low-lying areas, so there were evacuations. And mainland China, where it impacted, the Chinese Meteorological Administration, they called it the, they called Ragasa the King of Storms. But the main takeaway was that 2.16 million people were evacuated, over 80,000 vessels were relocated from coastal areas, all sorts of boats and stuff.

What happened was there was a surge of late season monsoonal moisture and that went in there and it generated storms and I believe it's pronounced Gila County or Guyla County is G-I-L-A County and that's east of Phoenix. That was the area that was the greatest, that had the greatest impact. And basically there was 2.09 inches of rain that fell in just 25 minutes and flood waters rose four feet in roughly four minutes in some places in particular in downtown, what's the name of this town, in downtown Globe, which is Globe and Miami. Those were the areas that affected. So the mayor, he called it a devastating flood event but the issue is that the fast moving flood waters, they caused major damage to buildings downtown and a number of the buildings were compromised as a result of the flooding. And road closures, US 60, which is a huge throughfare Globe and Miami, they were completely shut down for a period. Let me drop it. And this is an old mining town.

They actually had a ground stop at the Phoenix airport, so there were some delays there. The storms, they actually also produced hail, strong winds which of course damaged trees because there were downbursts associated with it and there were thousands of power outages reported. And there was also flooding in Scottsdale where some areas saw up to 8 feet of water in low lying areas. So at this point in time, at least since the 27th of September, there are 4 people that are confirmed dead. Three deaths occurred near Globe and two were found in a vehicle and one was found just floating in flood waters.

First off, we have Typhoon Noguri. That's basically making its way away from everybody at this point in time. It's essentially heading basically towards the Alaskan Islands. It is a typhoon at the moment, but it's going to eventually take on extra tropical characteristics as it moves away from Asia. The big storm right now that we're watching is Beloy. This is a 120 km an hour typhoon, so it's basically a category 1 hurricane. It's expected to impact Vietnam with about the same intensity. It's going to come into Badon and it's going to bring some gusty winds, but the main thing is storm surge and flooding rain. That's what everybody's concerned about with that particular system. And then the other areas that we're watching of course is Narda, which is a category 1 hurricane in the Pacific. That's expected to fall apart. It's not threatening anybody or anyone at this point in time. Maybe some cargo ships and other areas of disturbance, one which again is not too far from Acapulco. Watching that, Hurricane Center is giving that about a 30% chance of development in the next 7 days. Now the exciting stuff for our Canadian and American friends. Oh, and one last thing to note. The remnants of Gabriel, which is now a post-tropical storm. If you remember that was in the Atlantic. That's curved around and that's actually impacting Portugal right now. It doesn't really have a center, but there's very, very heavy rain falling in Avario, Porto and other places as the remnants are basically now impacting Portugal.

It's going to run into a slightly less favorable environment by Monday and start to lose intensity, but the question is what happens to Bermuda. It is going to, there's a ridge of high pressure that's basically coming in and that's what's going to force everything out to sea, but if there's more forcing than expected, this could affect Bermuda as a fairly strong category 3 hurricane.

The only place that's a bit of an exception is Bronte Creek they have 20% leaf fall and 40% color change but what I'm getting at over here is that the leaf fall and the color change are actually occurring concurrently and that's because of the drought conditions that we've been having Let me drop it"},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-09-27T18:50:14+00:00","id":48151,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":48150,"text":" Further to the north, Cottage Country and in particular Algonquin, that's a very popular park here. They're more what you would expect, although their colors are a little early. Usually they don't see 80% color change until the first week of October leading into the second week. Right now they're at 80% color change. They only have 20% leaf fall, so this week and next week. Or the remainder of this week and the next week are probably peaked for Algonquin and surrounding areas. So if you want to get up there, go up there. I like to get up there and kayak around in the fall colors. I don't know if I'll have time, but I'll try. But like I was mentioning, for other places that are seeing like 20% color change and 20% leaf fall, that's actually a result of the drought that we've had. So it was a very, very hot summer. A lot of heat periods that had a long duration. And then we simply in August did not get much of any rainfall. It was just hot and dry and then it was cool and dry. And what happened was this stressed out the leaf. So we saw soil moisture at a depth of about 100 centimeters, that's three feet, it's more than three feet, getting down to the point where it's very dry. So a lot of the tall grasses and other plants that aren't deeply rooted, they were getting really stressed out. And the trees get stressed out. You begin to see it in the trees once you get very dry soil at about the 100 centimeter mark because the moisture distribution of the soil below 100 centimeters, the soil tends to become more dry below 100 centimeters naturally. It varies depending on where you are, but the 100 centimeter marker is really great for drought because it indicates both plants on the surface, so deeper grasses, they'll get affected as well as anything above that. And the trees seem to start really reacting when it hits that 100 centimeter depth mark.

And the drought stressing out the trees where they were beginning to, some leaves were beginning to change color during the heat wave and that wasn't because they thought it was fall, that was because there was a lack of water, so the trees were beginning to shed their leaves early. So the fall colors are coming in early, but it's not going to be a good color season because of the drought conditions. It's expected that at this rate the leaves are changing color and falling, which isn't good if you want to see fall colors. Also, the colors tend to be more muted when the trees are stressed. You don't really get those vibrant reds and yellows, you get sort of darker browns and the leaves curl up and they get leaf burn at the tip and stuff like that and they fall off, so it's not great. So we'll see what happens, but at this point in time the fall colors are not looking like they're going to be great and they are a little earlier than they usually are for us. So lots of trees here, Toronto is still mostly green, but some of the trees in the valleys and stuff are definitely beginning to change.

Don't mean to put you on the spot, but what I was able to gather, not all that common, but there were two calls here where there was some concern that the four storms will not merge together, but two of them, Humberto and Emilda, and Rina, who was the first one that was formed."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-09-27T18:56:05+00:00","id":48160,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":48159,"text":" Yeah Victor Alpha 3, Victor Whiskey X-ray returning. Yeah thanks for the question Ken. Actually I've discussed this a few times before on the Science Night. Yeah the Fujiwara effect, so for what people don't know it's basically it's a it's a form of binary interaction. So you would see this with stars that are orbiting each other and spinning you know and they'll sometimes get closer and closer and sort of collide with each other. So vortices do this all the time. So on Earth here the Fujiwara effect you see this where where vortices essentially become entangled and they'll merge together and become one one vortices. So with tropical storms it's less common it certainly absolutely happens but it's less common with tropical systems because so tropical systems basically draw in moisture in the low levels and they exhale the moisture in the upper levels right so they ventilate themselves at the tropopause which is the top of the troposphere where it meets the stratosphere and and it's dry up there right so so tropical systems are driven by lots of heat energy they basically so the vertical thermal column where the clouds are they try and warm that as much as they can and their energy is derivative from from latent heat release right sensible heat energy and some other things. Anyhow all that stuff aside the so so what I'm getting at here is you have a low pressure you a low pressure system which is what a tropical system is system is but where it starts ventilating itself in the upper levels you have essentially displacement large-scale displacement on a on a synoptic scale so so you're taking air from one part of the atmosphere and moving it to another part of the atmosphere and this finds its way back to the surface as a ridge of high pressures subsidence or subsiding air so air so dry high-level air sinking down to the surface right let me cycle it"},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-09-27T18:57:11+00:00","id":48161,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":48160,"text":""},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-09-27T18:58:16+00:00","id":48162,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":48161,"text":" So because tropical systems need instability and subsiding sinking air creates stability, it's the opposite of what a hurricane would want or a tropical cyclone would want. Even thunderstorms don't want that, right? They want instability. So they want either neutrality in the atmosphere or buoyancy that allows air parcels to continue to rise, right? So essentially a lapse rate that's unstable. Or it allows for surface parcels, so blobs of air from the surface to reach the lifting condensation level where they then cool at 6.5 degrees Celsius per kilometer and keep rising because the rate of change is greater than that, right? So the air is always warmer. So the blob of warm air is always warmer than the surrounding environment. Okay, so because you have the subsiding air, you don't typically have tropical systems near other tropical systems. But sometimes as we're seeing right now in the Atlantic and as what we saw earlier in the Pacific with those two storms that I mentioned earlier. So we saw Bouloy and oh my goodness, the Ragasa, they weren't too far apart. They were too far apart to have the Fujiwara effect come into play. But again, they weren't that far apart. But what we're seeing right now with the Atlantic where you essentially have Humberto and our next system developing, they're going to be in close proximity to each other at roughly not at the same time but in a compacted timeframe. So the concern is are they going to sort of get intertwined and become one system? Well, it's a possibility but tropical systems, because they ventilate themselves a lot, they actually sometimes tend to force themselves apart.

I don't have a statistic for it. I can't tell you what percentage would do it. But what I would say is that it's far less common for mature tropical systems to interact, to essentially collide with one another than it is for developing systems. So it would be more common for tropical depressions or newly formed tropical storms where there is a lot of instability in a local environment. So you could have two tropical storms form in close proximity. It's more common for those to interact. And the other thing, Ken, is because the dynamics of the atmosphere get more complicated, the lower, the closer you get to the surface of the Earth, everything becomes sort of mushy. And it's actually difficult for... Models can model it, but there's more uncertainty that gets dragged into the modeling at the lower levels, the mid and upper levels. The upper levels can handle the Fujiwara effect really well. But when you get into the lower levels, it gets really messy really quickly. And there's a lot of features that can develop that are at the limit or sort of below the resolution limit of computer models that specifically deal with tropical systems. So it becomes a bit of a big mess. Forecasters are always sort of scratching their head until the new center of the tropical system emerges and convection begins to develop around it. But again, so typically you'll get it with weaker systems than you will with... You're not going to have... It's possible, but it's incredibly unlikely that you're going to have two category five hurricanes smash into each other courtesy of the Fujiwara effect. It's very, very unlikely.

However, Earth's atmosphere, it actually extends 630,000 kilometers, that's about 390, roughly 390,000 miles into space. So it extends past the Moon. And the European Space Agency and NASA's SOHO observations of the Solar Heliosphere Conservatory, it's been able to show that our planet's atmosphere extends out past the Earth and the Moon. In actuality, the Moon travels through our atmosphere. And this is basically, all it is is just basically a cloud of hydrogen atoms. And it's referred to as the geocolona. So it's amazing, our atmosphere, although it's very weak at that point in time, it's about a thousand hydrogen atoms, 630,000 kilometers, 290,000 miles out into space, past the Moon, and it's referred to as the geocorona."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-09-27T19:25:24+00:00","id":48206,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":48205,"text":" And this is EHV at KX, and here at Science and TechNet in Transatlantic Control Ontario, Canada.

And as I just said, not only are these plastics found in multiple organs inside our bodies, but they're now being detected in our bones. And there were 62 studies that revealed microplastics and nanopastics affecting the skeletal health of human beings. And once inside the bones, they tend to migrate to the bone marrow, and it interferes with the metabolism. Animal studies have shown that the accumulations can reduce bone growth by disrupting osteoplasts, these are cells that help bone growth and repair. And studies also have shown that plastics and animal studies can give itself a viability and also accelerate cell aging and even cell differentiation, that stem cells, and promote inflammation.

Now this might not sound like a relatively high probability, but when it comes to objects hitting the Earth at 3.1%, that's still a fairly high probability. And soon after revisions of the calculations that show the odds of hitting us dramatically dropped to the point of little chance of impact, less than 1 in 1060, less than 8 in Black and White Harbor.

However, the asteroid still has a good chance of slamming into the moon, which would have some effect on us. If it hits the moon, lunar ejecta would be produced, which would increase micrometeoroids in Earth's low orbit, and maybe a thousand times above the background levels that already exist.

They're thinking of maybe slamming some impactors into it, but they're also worried about, you know, there's no prediction on how big the pieces might be if they break it up. So the window for a launch would be between late 2029 and 31.

And got to meet Jack and Cammie and Brian and Tim and several others, all who were just wonderful, wonderful to meet. And so, as most of you may have recognized me as being a new ham, newly licensed, it was very nice to be welcomed into the community. And so that's pretty cool. And then when I got back, someone here on Mercer Island loaned me a Leishon UV998 25 watt radio, which was an upgrade for me from my kid radio handheld. So that was nice. And so it's been a good day all the way around. And I just wanted to call again and say hi to everybody and wish everybody a wonderful weekend. WAPLD back to you, NET. WAPLD K7WFD. Well, thank you, David. That was a heartening beginning to the NET. It is really nice to have new members really start getting involved with the community.

And I believe, if I saw correctly close to, uh, before sunset was starting, there was a nice batch of clouds piled on top of each other in the west-southwest area, and, uh, yeah, I thought that was kind of unusual because I thought, well, you know, clouds this time of year, they don't usually bunch up, but that pile did, so I kind of kept an eye on it for a bit because I wasn't sure what it was, uh, intending, but it flanned out eventually and blew away, so, hey, there you go. Um, let's see what else. Oh, yeah, um, contemplating now what kind of shelves to put together near the, uh, desk bunk so that, uh, I can start putting books, research stuff, and little odds and ends on it eventually, so that'll be the next goal, and it probably won't get done until next year, but in the meantime, I can sketch it out, see how it's going to turn out on paper, and, um, go that route and figure out the measurements for that. In the meantime, still gotta find a piece of aluminum or something that looks kind of like a, um, a door with no handles on it that I can actually throw up there on top of the, uh, bunk part so that I can actually, um, either A, turn it into sword spot or B, make it flat so I can just, you know, kind of make sure that it stays clean and neat and put the cushion up there eventually. Uh, other than that, that's pretty much all I'm doing is just sitting here relaxing because it's a weekend and I'm having fun talking on the radio because, well, it's sitting here on the desk, I might as well use it. There you go, there's my report, so KJ7EXM.com. Well, thank you, Shawn. Sounds like you got a good plan how to fix up your area, uh, make it more comfortable, keep it neat, and you're gonna have fun planing it and doing it. And yeah, I saw those clouds too. I was, I was enjoying, I hate to say it, but I think this might be the last shirt sleeves day of the season. Uh, hey, I said it, I'm sorry, but I think that's true. So I just really made an effort to enjoy it today, went over to Kerry Park on Queen Anne and watched the tourists take pictures of each other. Uh, that was great fun. So yeah, and then, and as I was leaving, the clouds bunched up as you say. Um, but you know, just before I came out here, I looked down and it was just, uh, it was perfectly clear. It's beautiful. So the big dipper and all that kind of stuff. Well, thank you, Shawn. Let's move ahead and talk to another old friend, Dean, KJ7ODD.

Just a lot of people always say this but I don't want to mention anybody's name because I will forget somebody but it was great. David the new operator who was number one I don't believe I met him I did see a few people that I didn't recognize but I probably should have said something so anyway hopefully I'll meet him at some other event but yeah afterwards I went out to dinner with or late lunch I should say because it was still late to McMinimins with Cami and Robert and I had some shrimp gumbo which was really good and then after that I went so I brought my IC705 with me and I went to a parking lot at Shoreline Community College and set it up because what I wanted to do is I wanted to see if I could get this app called SDR control that's on my iPhone and what it is is it connects to certain iCom radios and with it you can make FDA contacts and all these features but they added slow scan TV to it so I didn't make any transmissions but I picked up three different SS TV slow scan TV photographs from 20 meters of 14.230 so I mean you just sit there and you let these little pictures come in there's one that has a red car on it and another one which has some kind of mountain display and it's just kind of cool seeing those come in so I want to make sure I get it right because I wasn't quite sure how to add my call sign or if I just need to make a jpeg with information already embedded in it but I think this implementation in SDR control might be kind of new so it might not have all the features like adding being able to add text to existing photographs so anyway that was fun checking that out and yeah it was my IC705 with my buddy sick pro which was working very well and I made a few FDA contacts too.

I've done just a tiny bit of SS TV the stuff that comes down from the International Space Station and just you know recorded the audio and played it into a decrypter on my phone and by the way you probably know but for others the ISS they're going to be doing that again next weekend I think starting Friday I don't remember exactly what time but they're going to do two sessions I think Friday Saturday and then Sunday Monday I think they're going to do six new images I believe from the ISS if you're interested you guys can just google that and it'll pop right up I am sure but my question for you Dean is um it never occurred to me there was other stuff around particularly HF how do you know where to go how did you know 14.230 was the place to go"},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-09-27T21:21:44+00:00","id":48305,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":48304,"text":" Well, the answer to that question is to go to the PSRG website and look for the archived video of Kirk, AlphaGolf7YankeeMike's talk from about a month ago where he talked about SSTV and yeah 14.230 is, and I think there's a little bit of room above it too. That's considered the SSTV 20 meter single sideband calling frequency. So, yeah I just tuned my radio there and just listened and had the information come in. And so, yeah without getting into a whole big discussion about it here is, yeah I've got this specialized program that interfaces over Wi-Fi to my IC705, but there are programs out there that all, what it will do is it will let your phone listen for whatever is coming over the radio and if there is an SSTV signal it will just print out the image and you can just be holding your phone or a microphone connected to a computer just near a radio and the audio couples that way. So, there's so many ways to do it, but yeah I'd recommend going and checking out Kirk's education meeting presentation. So, it's very cool. KG70DB. KG70DB, K7WF, thank you Dean. You know I had missed that meeting and I meant to watch the video and I forgot all about it. So, thank you so much for reminding me that is going to give me the background I need. I really appreciate you bringing that up. Very good, thank you. Dean, oh Dean, you're probably next on the list. Jeff, that's who we want to talk to. Jeff, AB6MB. How's it going down there in California? This is repeater station Q and Q7 November, Quebec, November. All-star No. 2 C2-2 located in Shelton, Washington. I'm watching a ball player at the Dodgers' Mariners game and the second baseman for the Dodgers is trying to bunt the players over and it's just not working. He tries to bunt it and the ball goes every which way except for the way he wants it to go and so, man, I'm just frustrated. But anyway, yeah, just down here, just nice weather and the ball player is not having a good day. And that's Mick Rojas, a good, great guy. He's just so bad at not going well. Anyway, yeah, the game doesn't count for anything for both teams so it's just kind of, you know, do what you can there to get through it. But anyway, it's all that. He actually got the two players over. Anyway, I digress. Yeah, it's good to hear about the space station and doing the SOSCNT. I've done a little bit of that and just to say I did it. It's interesting to do and there's ads for your phone, you know, that you can do and listen. I think it's called Robot. Maybe Robot, it's Robot something. But yeah, I did that just to test it out and that. And the Dodgers, well anyway, I'm getting too distracted here. But anyway, thanks for doing that tonight and hope everybody has a good evening. AB6MB. AB6MB, K7WFD. Well, thanks. Thanks for the blow by blow report there on the game. That Dodgers batter should have known that the Mariners are invincible at this point, right? Looks that way for the moment. Really well. Interesting season and playoffs start. I forget, real soon. Yeah, on the, Jack sent me a little image here just so people will know a little better on this Space Week SSTV event. It's going to start, let's see, the first window starts Friday, Friday, 1400 UTC. So that's what, 7 a.m. Friday morning and goes through to 10,000 UTC Saturday. So that's the middle of the night. So it's basically Friday. Yeah, ends at 3 a.m. in the morning. And then the second window starts on Saturday with a similar schedule, kind of similar. Anyway, go Google it. It's coming down from the space station at 145.8 MHz. And it uses, it talks about the coding and that program that Jeff mentioned is robot, I think it's robot 36. That's Android. I don't know if the same thing is on iPhone, but I know there's one that works. And it just, you can just grab the audio recorder on your phone and play it back. I've done it with just like a J-Pole. No, I did it actually, you can hear it with just a 19 inch whip. I tried it that way. I didn't get much of an image. Then I tried it with a direction line panning and a pretty nice image. Anyway, it's fun if you've never done it. It's real hard. It's real difficult. All right, let's move ahead now and talk to KB5TWG.

It's good to hear you all. And we're down here in Wichita Falls, Texas. And you're having a beautiful night. The wind's not blowing real hard. The temperature dropped a little bit down here. So it's nice and pleasant being outside, just sitting out working on a radio installing of a new pickup. And we successfully were able to get an All-Star hub note set up down here. So hopefully we'll get some additional check-ins into y'all's nightly net. It's been a big show. A lot of folks just don't understand how to make it navigate it. So we're going to try to get it linked up to a repeater down here so that others will be able to come in and participate if they wanted to.

This is one of these things where it's a dinner and a silent auction and then we have a dessert auction where groups of people will get together and bid on a cake and the bids on these things go astonishingly high. And then of course there is the secondary slice market where once the cake has been sold, the person who bought the cake can then collect money from other people for slices and this is where it gets kind of fun. So I bought one slice for myself and bought one slice for some other person who wanted a slice of this chocolate raspberry decadence that was too rich even for me. And other than that, got a little bit of writing done today, not much music, did my exercises correctly for once and other than that, that was my day, pretty mundane.

Well, hi there, Sean. This is Sean. So, welcome to the frequency. The reason I came in with the recheck was because I was just sitting there and you happen to mention Halloween party fun. What to dress up as for Halloween? Well, it should be something fun, and it should be something that, you know, you can, you're willing to wear. So, yeah, keep it neat, but I don't know what I'm going to dress up as. Could be a ninja, could be a Deadpool, could be something funny like being myself. I don't know, KJS 7RJL says I need to just dress up as myself. When I get home, I, you know, do whatever with my costume, and I'm like, okay, yeah, but I love being myself, but who knows? I might just come as dressed as myself. So, that's just as good. And so, hopefully, when it comes to this festivity time, everybody has fun wearing whatever it is that they happen to be wearing in the way of a costume. So, I hope it looks cool and that everybody has fun at that time. As for what I'm doing, I'm sitting here pondering. I just happen to be staring at the lights, no particular reason. They're changing colors and doing what they do, and I had to get back in here. I had something funny to say, and now I can't think of it because it was on the tip of my tongue. Now it's not there. Do you ever get that moment? Anyway, that's the scoop. I just thought I'd come back in and say I hope it's going to be fun when we have that nice Halloween event. KJS 7EXM, back to Nat. KJS 7EXM, K7WFD. Yes, Sean, I'm glad you're putting your thinking cap on for a good costume because that really does spice up a rain or shine. Do I ever forget what I'm going to say? All the time. Like, all the time. Makes me crazy. Makes us all crazy. As you were talking, I was thinking, gee, maybe somebody will think up a ham radio-themed costume, like coming as a handy talkie or a J-Pole. You could stick your arm out and kind of crook it up to the side and dress up as a J-Pole. You could do all kinds of things. Well, now we're going to switch over from Sean Local to Sean in Greensboro, North Carolina. And Sean, I'm looking at a photo that Jack has sent to me. Must be from your QRZ page where you're looking up, probably toward me, you're standing high on a ladder and looking up, probably at an antenna. You look rather concerned, though.

You look a little concerned, but no more concerned than is appropriate to a rather tall ladder. By the way, I don't do ladders anymore. I've passed the age where ladders are a reasonable thing to do. So I look to younger folks like you to help out when I need a ladder. You're a little far away to call on Greensboro, but if I could, I would. Thanks for stopping by. By the way, your clear node, it sounds great. Yeah, it sounds like a real good signal. And you're welcome back anytime. Of course, as you know, we have nets daily, 9 a.m. noon and 9 p.m. in this very same spot every day of the year.

I've done a lot of warranty service and such and seen a lot of circuit boards, but there's a picture, but way down the page of ways, of a conformal coated board, the green board, you know, with the copper clad peanut brittle board underneath it.

And they actually have a lot of information about the radio they're using and how many watts they're broadcasting out. And I managed to get somebody who's broadcasting one watt on a 40 meter band using FTA and all the way from Saskatchewan. And that's quite a far distance from me.

I can't really transfer back as it's an SDR, but I've been looking into it and I'm quite interested in FTA. Yesterday was homecoming after school, a football game, didn't really stay.

And then the wife and I went out to dinner later on this evening. And just kind of had a chill day actually. So it's been very good. Got all my rain or shine stuff, all my material, my radio and all the other stuff all put away in the closet for the wintertime. And now we'll be moving to hang out at the hanger in Kenmore. So inside no net, just ham radio hangout. So it should be a lot of fun. October 25th is the first one. And now I'm looking forward to the PSRG Rain or Shine Net, the Halloween net. So that should be a lot of fun down in Gasworks. I'm definitely looking forward to that. And other than that I've just been playing guitar and I'm learning the major scales on the neck of the guitar.

I recall when you just start and your fingers are so sore but it sounds like you're making great progress on that. And thank you also for reminding us of the hanger, what do you call them? Hanger, I forget what the name of it is. But it's the winter version of the Lake Washington Ham Club Rain or Shine. They're indoors. And for the people on the net who have never been to one, they have this wonderful facility up in, oh I'm blanking. Is that Kenmore? I think it's Kenmore. You'll find it on their website. Really nice indoor facility. There's a coffee, there's a stressor over in the corner there. And people just get there and hang around like an outdoor rain or shine but you don't get wet. Very nice.

Beef is, there's less cattle because they've had to kill off so many of them for the disease. And then there's also higher costs for transportation and feed and this, that, and the other.

And certain people are allowed to steal and they're allowed to get away with it. The rest of us, we have to pay the high prices. This is repeater station kilo kilo 7 November 1st, November. Yeah, parts of Canada do that. Located in Shelton, Washington. Okay, because shoplifting is happening a lot. And so a lot of those places, they're told, just let it happen. Don't go chasing after those guys. I think that part of it is unfair. I mean, yeah, you could lose your job if you don't obey that, right? Even if you save the store from being robbed because you go after a guy and you get the stuff back, you could actually lose your job. There was a lady that did sort of just that. She worked at one of those Metro Marts or Loblaws. And she chased after somebody that was not only just stealing but obviously stealing. I mean, they were doing, as you said, loading up a bag at a car. And it seems like they were making trips loading up the bag going back to the car. And on one of those, she tackled the woman. She tackled her, right? And then there was a big scrap. And then anyways, she tried to help the store and she ended up losing her job. So, yeah, I mean, I can't call it. I'd probably, if it was me, I'd lose my job too because I don't know, I just can't. Go after those guys. I think their stance is because you never know if somebody is carrying a knife or whatever. And so, yeah, it's tough. I don't know how to argue that because that's the truth for even just, like I told you about the bad kids on the subways and how oftentimes I scrap with them. And I've backed down on a lot of it because it's dangerous. You don't know if somebody is carrying a weapon or if they have a whole crew of them. So the same thing is thought about in the stores."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-09-28T03:33:55+00:00","id":48456,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":48455,"text":" Yeah, what's a government store?

Anytime you do a high price in those places, there's an underground market, right? So you can eventually re-buy most of that stuff for a price.

If a 15 year old is doing it, then he's copping for all his friends. That may be one aspect. The other aspect is there's always a black market where people want price breaks on just about anything you can name, right? Like cigarettes. Earlier we talked about meats and veggies. And then yeah, goods and services, phones, stereos, laptops, booze, it's all a part of it. So I think that that's where that goes to.

But there's a way station on Interstate 84. Is 84 or 86? I can't remember. It goes from, what is it, Stanfield, Oregon, and then goes up across the river and up into Washington up to 90. Maybe it's 82. I think it's 82. Anyway, when you get off of 84 onto this interstate, there's a way station before you get to the river. And it's not a standalone way station. You have to actually get off on an exit, go underneath the overpass, go into the way station, use it, come back. And then if you're coming west or east on it, then you just get off, make a right, and it's right there. You go through it. But they have a camera system. And I had a student that missed the, he was looking for a way station. And when he saw the exit, he didn't get off of the exit because he didn't think that was the way station because he thought, OK, that's an exit to get to the street down there to get to the businesses. So he didn't realize the way station was at the bottom of the ramp. So he went by it. He ended up getting a ticket in the mail because they contacted Swift and said, OK, here's the guy who, the truck number and the guy who ran it. And Swift said, yep, this is his address. And he ended up getting a ticket in the mail for running the way station because of the camera system on the interstate there. But that was not the same thing. They did have cameras in California. And there was one incident where a guy had run a red light. And the ticket came to his house. And his wife got the ticket, opened it up. And it showed her husband in the driver's seat driving. And he had a female passenger that was leaning over and doing something in his lap. Let's put it that way. Let me grab one. This is repeater station kilo kilo 7, November, Quebec, all star node 6222. Located in. All right. So yeah, she got the ticket, saw the picture of her husband with a blonde lady. You can see with the top of her head. And she used that and filed for divorce. And the guy sued the city. And I think he won. And now whenever there was or after that, I don't know if they still have the lights, traffic cameras. But after that, when they would send a ticket off, they would only send from the chest up so you could see the person who was driving the vehicle, but you couldn't see anything else below that. So that was a interesting story. I thought I'd share."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-09-28T06:38:38+00:00","id":48754,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":48753,"text":" Mr. Sears and Happy Days."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-09-28T06:38:48+00:00","id":48755,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":48754,"text":" Thank you."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-09-28T06:39:00+00:00","id":48756,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":48755,"text":" Thank you."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-09-28T06:39:14+00:00","id":48757,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":48756,"text":" That is what you would call a Mr. C incident.

Boy, that's a good question. I'm not too crazy about some of the yard work in fall cause we got so many trees around here and leaves everywhere and I just ain't cleaning up the leaves. They're just a nasty mess and I don't know. I get bushels and bushels of them darn things and it's good for the garden but you know they just get into every nook and cranny. In fact we've got so many leaves out there right now that have been falling because of being so dry. They just dry up and then fall off the trees and I'm out there trying to do some cement work and there are dirt leaves blowing in there and I got to pick them things up and get them out of my cement. So that's something I'm going to do here in a few minutes. As soon as I check in here I'm going to go out there and do some more cement work so that I can get it done while it's still cool out there. I got 71.8 degrees and 67% humidity and like Art said there's a little breeze out there but not a whole lot. And it's kind of off and on. Let's see. Well I think I will just wrap it up there so that I can get out there and go to work. I put a scanner outside so I could listen to the net.

When I heard your voice, I know you're one of the alternates for Sunday with Barbara being the other one, but when I heard your voice, I had a recollection to back more than 10, 12 or so years ago when I first got my ham radio license and got connected to the World Wide Friendship net. All of the friends that I've met here, my voice is a little raspy right now. I think I'm on the downside of a cold. I'm real sure it's not COVID. So I've been isolated. I did not participate in game day yesterday. Stayed home while Gina went over with the others and had a nice time. I've been sleeping a lot the last couple of days. On the question of the day, my goal for this fall is to get some stability in my life as I make a transition from living with my sister, Jeannie, into senior living. I sign the paperwork on Friday afternoon in the middle of all of our storms, but I won't be moving in until probably around the middle of October because I need to get some furniture, chairs and a sofa and that kind of stuff to go into my unit. I think my life will be better. There will be three prepared meals a day. That doesn't mean I need to eat three a day. I'd probably start gaining weight again. I'm looking forward to social activities including bingo and table games and trips out in the community and even day trips where they pack up lunches and take people to Payson and see some of the museums, etc. So I'm looking forward to that. I need social activity and I'm really not getting it here in the gold canyon area. I'm going to break for a second. The last thing I wanted to say before I turn it back to you, Jeannie, is when you mentioned the question of the day, I had a nostalgic moment back in the 60s when I was sent to submarine school in Rock, Connecticut. I was in the fall of that year and the beautiful scenery with the trees turning the colors and all that kind of stuff, it was just something I'll never forget driving out on the weekends out in the area, busy in New Hampshire and Massachusetts and all that kind of stuff on the weekends because I was busy with school during the week. I was in small little churches from the late 1800s. It was just beautiful recollection. Thank you for that. This is Bud K-5 EWH turning the net back to Gina K-7 GEC. Looking forward to hearing from my friends, 73 88 All and everybody have a super wonderful day today."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-09-28T07:15:15+00:00","id":48804,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":48803,"text":" All right there, Bud. Well, gosh, it sounds like you are busy there and, yeah, having to, well, I think it will be good, the senior living place. I have a couple of friends that live in those and the activities they do, I tag along. I'll meet them someplace or just to be with my friend or they go someplace for a lunch as a group and I'll go and meet them on my lunch break and stuff. So hopefully that fulfills you there, getting the social activities and, you know, just being active with the different groups that those senior living places have. So I think that's a good choice there and hopefully that works out really well for you. You get some great furniture and the move is easy there. And your recollection of fall in the northeast, that is my grandparents lived in San Diego and they would do an RV trip to the northeast just to see the fall colors there. So it's got to be spectacular. I've never been that far east to see those but it is on my bucket list to go to Maine and the northeast there and time it to see the fall colors. I just imagine and I see the photos, they're just spectacular. And yeah, I have been on the net for more than 10 years here as a host. I was just thinking that this morning when I woke up, I'm like, man, I've been doing this for, I can't even remember, I have to go look at some of my log books but I do enjoy it. I look forward to talking with everybody and I'm not on the net a whole lot during the week anymore but I love checking in and sometimes I'll just listen along in the mornings while I'm busy getting chores done. So you have a good rest of your day there, bud. I hope you take that cold or crud to the curb there and have a good Sunday. Up next I've got Pappy in 7RHV.

Can't do that anymore and I was just thinking recently that yeah, it's going to be tough this winter carrying him out there and hanging out with him while he bumbles around in the yard there. So not looking forward to this rainy season for that reason. So yeah, very good point there. Do have a good rest of your Sunday and enjoy a sunny day there, Papi.

I can ride a lawn mower but I hired a gardener and he's supposed to be over here in a couple of hours with a couple of guys actually. They're going to probably work most of the day on getting rid of everything. The blackberries, the vines that are growing all over the place. We'll just have to see. Not going to be cheap either but I've got to get it done and I can't do it. That's my two cents. Linda Lou and I used to drive up to Lost Lake up around Mt. Hood in the fall about this time.

Hopefully the gardeners do a great job. They definitely earned their pay there for you. They're tackling blackberries.

Yeah, all the larch trees that change and get some good colors up there high up on the mountain. So, yeah, a reminder that we do have some nice fall colors here in the, what do they call it, the Fruit Loop, the trip around Mount Hood where you go on the east side there where all of our orchards are and get all the fall harvest and jams and all that load up and then come back over the top of Mount Hood. It's a good trip. So definitely have to think about doing one of those this fall. I'm trying to get a pumpkin patch trip in as well to get all the cider and pick our pumpkins for carving and all of that. So I'm excited about some of the stuff for fall here but not the rain. All right, with that we are looking for check-ins here. Continuing on the worldwide friendship net this morning. My name is Gina, your host for today, Katie7GEC here. And yeah, we've got 76% humidity and 50 degrees and the sun's just coming up out there. Our ham radio antenna, our HF antenna came down in the winter storm there a couple of years ago but I just recently replaced the mask and made it into a flag pole. So when I look out the window I see a kitty cat pirate flag that I put up there. So I don't think I'm going to put the HF antenna back but I have been enjoying the flag pole which is not flapping right now. So it's calm and quiet out there.

We're 65 degrees and apparently only headed to 77.

So I really look forward to that and of course looking forward to all the trick-or-treaters all dressed up and having fun out there for Halloween. But that's basically it. We had a gang buster day yesterday. We had about 78 students out of a total of 96. A bunch of them decided to go to the Miramar Air Show which is one of the largest air shows in the country. You can't blame them, but they're going to have to answer to their two faculty members for ditching the Jennie Project and going down and looking at some great airplanes flying. But can't blame them really. I think I might have done the same thing if I was in their shoes, but it had a great start and got everybody up to speed on safety and how to deal with the machine tools of various kinds and metal benders and welders and grinders and sanders, routers, all of those things they got familiar with. And of course they're going to have to take a test and show that they have a proficiency before they get on those machines. But they also dove in and they're putting on brackets and they're making the rigging wires which is kind of a skill that they'll pull together there because they have to have a lot of tension on them. So I enjoyed doing that. Engine team is building a nice new engine stand. It'll be a nice classy museum quality stand. So lots of fun stuff out there to hang yesterday.

So maybe there will be a makeup session or something so those kids can catch up. And definitely yeah, the cooler days and more sunny days there in the fall for sure. And trick or treaters, yeah, I signed up to take a welding class this fall where we make a bat ornament. So we just learned how to weld on the ears and the wings of these metal bats. So a couple friends and I decided that we were signing up for that. So we'll have some new bat ornaments to hang up when we do our decorations. So it reminded me of that class.

It also seems to help hold more of the leaves. But, it's still, yeah, even when there are leaves in there, there's enough room for the water to quickly get piped out so it's not coming over the side there. And the crisp mornings and, yeah, our colors here that we get some of the ornamental trees that are planted around Portland with the sugar maples and all of that. Do look great. So all good things for fall there. And yeah, somebody, I'm not sure what part of Portland that Cliff will be visiting, so I guess if he can come back and let us know what part of Portland, maybe somebody can figure out a close enough restaurant to meet up or a time there. I'm not sure what his schedule is and stuff. So I'm not going to be able to jump in on that, but if I know, I'll try and make that time to go and see everybody.

Hope everybody has a great day. Oh, fall. Well, I like the cooler weather. I also like, believe it or not, having people describe to me the colors of the leaves as the leaves are changing. I haven't had anybody do that quite yet. So I would love to hear some of you describing the colors of the leaves in your area, you know, because I'm sure they're turning now. I love that. My mother used to take me and my friend Helen up to the Agarwahtoa Fest in August, in like early September, and we would go up there and she would describe the turning of the leaves to us and it was always so much fun. So I always love fall. Plus I like the cooler weather, especially now with the fact that I live in this apartment and it has one of those window coolers. Oh God, I am so looking forward to fall. I mean, in the next few days, the high temperature is going to be 69. I'm like, sweet, I can turn off my air, you know? So I'm looking forward to that, the coolness. That's what I look forward to most, I think, about fall. That and the other thing I'm looking forward to is just enjoying my football, you know? That's awesome. So there you go. I hope everybody has a great day and I'll chat with you later. KC7FMW, you're back tonight. This is repeater station kilo, kilo seven. All right then, Missy. We're glad to get you in with us here on the World Wide Friendship Net this morning. And yeah, definitely all the classics for fall. The cooler weather and hopefully you find somebody that will hopefully get you out too on Oktoberfest and relive some of that this year. All the good food there. I love Oktoberfest food and all the beers and all the fun stuff that goes along with it and somebody that can describe all those colors that they're seeing out there for you. So that would be great to do and yeah, it reminds me of the Mount Angel Oktoberfest we have here. It's been many years since I've been that, but you park out. I mean, because this town is so small, they have parking and fields and then you get to ride on trailers towed by tractors into town there, which is a lot of fun as well. So maybe I'll see if my friends want to do that. Go get some, I love braised cabbage. Look forward to that. I'm hungry. All right, Missy. Have a good rest of your Sunday there. And with that, we're a little over halfway through our hour here on the World Wide Friendship Net. My name is Gina, TD7GEC, your host for today and looking forward to check-ins here. Our question of the day is what are you looking forward to this fall? So please come with your call sign slowly and then fanatics. Kilo, kilo, seven, Zulu, KK7Z. Control, excuse me.

But it's a good thing I made it because there's nothing worse than being on wet roads with skinny tires on your bike. But I got good again. I'm only 33 miles from my original goal. It was 3,000 miles for the year. So I think it's safe to say I'm going to hit that goal. And what I look forward to is the cool down. I grew up in Pittsburgh and the thing there is you couldn't wait until winter was over to get out there and get outside and do all those things. Well here in the desert it is so hot in the summer you don't get out and do things outside because it's too hot. So when it cools down that's the time you can get outside and really enjoy the outdoors and have a lot of fun. And also in a few weeks I'm heading to Pittsburgh and I'm hoping that I might get lucky and find some fall colors back there. I'm going to do some more exploring as we do and have several places that look pretty awesome back there. You know it's amazing some of these abandoned places have been sitting there for so many years. So that's about it. That's all I got there Gina. Good to hear you. Thanks for being there.

We have nice cool weather this morning, 48 degrees here in Portland. Just outside of Portland anyway. They still think it's part of Portland but it's a Loa, 14 miles west of Portland. But they extend out where there's a metro area I guess they call that. Let's see, if Cliff can get some time and we can get together for lunch or something that might be fun. Maybe we can go down to the candy store and look around down there. I don't know if he has one around his area or not. Maybe Over Elmer's or something like that we can have lunch. But I'd like to meet him and I've met three or four of our family here in person. And it's a lot of fun. The part that wasn't so much fun was going downtown Las Vegas. That place is a madhouse, it really is. Just getting around on the streets down there. Today's going to be just kind of sprucing up outside a little bit and get some yard work done before the colder weather comes in. I have all my tents packed up, the trailers packed up, that's all layered out and tested. That's good because I'm going to be using it for winter field day which is the end of January. I want to make sure the furnace works right in it and everything is up to snuff there. So yeah, if you could put, if Clifton wants to get together with us, we'd love to see him.

Just to confirm, I think you're on again next week and then we pick up the regular rotation. When you come back you can let me know if you have access to your calendar. If not, we can talk later. But that's what I have on my calendar. I just want to make sure I got that right. And let's see, well, it's a beautiful day here in the Pacific Northwest. And I'm thinking of maybe tackling the gutters, but I don't know. I have to wait and see about my father. He is not doing great. He's in the hospital up in St. V's for people who know that area. It's in southwest Portland, Virgin on Beaverton. So I need to see if he's up for a visit. He wasn't yesterday. But we may just gather there just to kind of, you know, my brother may come up from La Pine. My uncle might come up tomorrow, his brother. So we're concerned about him. But if I can't go to visit, if he says no, not now, and others aren't going, I may take out my worries and frustrations on the gutters. That may be the way I do it. Anyway, I'm looking forward to the cool air in the fall. I really prefer that. But I will miss the sunshine. We do get a lot of rain once we get into fall and winter. But there are still some nice warm days like Katie 7WA noted. We do still get some warm weather. So you know, just looking forward to all of that. And quiet. I mean, summer, you just have so many events that you can go to. It just flies at you. And you have to pick and choose because so many events happen at the same time. Things quiet down a bit in the fall. And I welcome that. So that's kind of where I'm at with the fall. Anyway, I hope everyone is having a great day. And I'll keep you posted on my dad. I'm just not sure yet what we're doing and how. I'm waiting for update two. But in the meantime, 7-3 to all. And I hope you all have a great day.

And yeah you mentioned definitely the cooler air and less activities in the fall there so you can start the... I spent yesterday puttering around the house because I didn't have anything to do but I got some holes patched and yard work and like I said earlier I got all the spider webs off from around the porches and stuff so yeah quieter and less events there in the fall but better food I think.

So we're looking forward to hearing from you, Bud, later today with that phone call. And we'll catch up on things. And, yeah, Rosie and I and Joris are not hearing the screen ports, and the temperature is in the 60s. Everything is wet, and we've had rain off and on now for, what, three days. And it was amazing, some of the pictures. Globe is kind of our little mountainous old mining town, but the whole town is, I guess, shut down and covered with mud. It's just amazing. Some of the pictures we've seen, it looks like we're watching the storms and floods in North Carolina. Cars were floating, and there were several rescues, and I think one person lost his life there in Globe or Miami, Arizona. So it's been a really crazy storm, but we were lucky we didn't get any hail or damaging winds. We've got to go out and check the rain gauge, but I think it's probably close to two inches. So in other places we're getting like two or three inches as well. We can't say it's dry Arizona anymore for a while anyway. And fall, yeah, one of my favorite times of the year. We always look forward to going up in the color of the leaves up on the rim, which would be about an hour and a half away. And then the reds and the oranges and all the different colors, the maples and the aspens. Yeah, we really miss that. But I guess what we'll probably be doing this fall, at least maybe we'll take a picnic lunch and go up to Lake Pleasant, and then also our Thunderbird Park, which is a hilly little area with the mountain trails. People come and do their hiking. So we'll probably get out and do that anyway, but I sure will miss the mountains and the leaves.

I was a little disappointed, probably for 40 years I've gotten a year of corn down there. Back in the day it was probably a dollar. I think last year it was two dollars. And I thought, well, this year it will be three dollars. And I went there and the year of corn was five dollars. And I thought, man, I mean, it's not I can't afford it, but it just kind of got me that the farmer's probably given that corn and he asked for charity, but just kind of thought five bucks for a year of corn, you could go a safe way and probably get four years for a dollar, I don't know. Anyway, the next thing for us would be Burbort out about, I don't know, 30 or 40 miles east of Portland, a little Catholic community called Burbort. And they put out a, we've been going out there for 40 years or so. I think it's the first Saturday in November, which actually is the day after Halloween this year. That will be a little different.

We are also carried on many other systems that are connected to the Canada Hub. You can check out the Canada Hub online at thecanadahub.ca. That's thecanadahub.ca. This net is also sponsored by the North Fraser Amateur Radio Club, the club with no dues, no politics, no memberships. You can check them out at 57nfr.com, VictorEcho7NovemberFoxDroughtRomeo.com. And be sure to check out the Dipole, Canada's finest amateur radio news source on that site. Again, this is the TransCanada Net. We run for about 90 minutes. There is a hard stop at 90 minutes, at least when I run it. We usually have a question of the week each week. This week the question is, what piece of amateur radio gear do you regret selling? I was just at a ham fest yesterday and I was wondering, I wonder if any of these people are going to regret selling any of this nice equipment. So what piece of amateur radio gear do you regret selling? That's our question for today. We usually take check-ins without any comments or traffic. Then we go east to west across Canada \u2013 sorry, we go outside of Canada, outside of North America I mean, international. Then we go east to west across Canada and give everyone a chance to answer the question of the week. It is a directed net so everything should go through net control. I forgot to introduce myself.

I'm on day six of COVID and literally just got up five minutes ago so my voice isn't quite booted up fully yet. Who knew COVID would come back like that? It has around our house anyway. So we are getting lots of ham radio done which is good. Enjoying 10 meters which has been open worldwide every day for the last few days which has been fantastic. No particular announcements. System is working well. Don't forget to check out the CanadaHub.ca website for the dashboard and other information. I've learned about a new system called Ham's Overvoip. I think it's called. I'm probably murdering that. A replacement as such for a Ham Shack hotline. I'm curious to know if lots of people are using that or not. Maybe if people could let you know when they check in. I don't have Sportford on the CanadaHub but I'd consider it if there was demand. Something to think about. Okay sorry Brian coming together here. Balloons. We're continuing to make slow progress but progress nonetheless on getting pictures transmitted from the balloon. As soon as I'm well enough I'm hoping to take our system, our test system. We plan to fly in October to a high altitude balloon and drive around the various mountaintop locations and try to make sure we can send pictures 30 kilometers away over various bands. See how that all performs. So that's kind of fun. That's coming up. I think we have a good chance of doing a launch in October based on how things are coming together but you know we don't know if we've got any gotchas yet in the testing but it's coming along. Gosh I do know there was something else I meant to mention. My camera what it is so brains not working. I don't think I'll be around when you take the West Coast chickens later on so I'm going to cheat. I'm sneaky to give you my answer now. I don't regret selling anything. In fact I listed microphones and antenna switches and remote controllers and all sorts of stuff yesterday because I went through my shack and I thought I'm not using this stuff. And I think if you're not using stuff, sell it because then somebody that can enjoy it can benefit from it and you get a little bit of money back as well so why not. It's always nice to see somebody get a radio back in service for example.

Thanks for keeping the system running smoothly. I haven't heard anyone mention HAMS over, I think it's HAMS over IP. All I know is it's like you said a replacement for Ham Shack hotline but I'm not personally, just to put my vote in there, I'm not personally interested. I don't really have a reason to buy a I guess a voice over IP phone to use with it. Anyway, thanks for checking in. I'll answer the question in a week too. So do I regret selling any amateur radio gear? No. I sold off some HTs years and years and years ago.

Currently, I live here in Kaeuro, central Finland. I don't have a station up and running yet. Now I'm building it step by step. First, I'm going to start with a 4-meter band. Then hopefully I can expand it into HF bands again, which I love very much to work on, especially on SSB. And of course, at the same time, I'm hunting to get a replacement ICOM India. Charlie 7400. So hopefully this answers to your question. And once again, thanks for having me. Operator here, by the way, is Jukka, Juliet Uniform KiloKil Alpha. QTH is Kaeuro, central Finland, like I said.

I know that's not quite ham related but it was quite a capable radio and eventually after it was sitting around for I don't know 15 years in the wardrobe I sold it to some guy who was a ham, an older guy so sort of told me to look after it and that sort of thing.

Anyway, I sold that to get my ham equipment and now I think that's part of the show because I'm not rolling the money. I want other stuff now and I'm trying to figure out what to part with because I don't have lots of stuff. So I have a 220 radio that I might have to part with and I don't want to, but I'm trying to get the synth and KZ that's coming out and I might have to part with my AnyTone D7580UV3++ whatever because their radio is now over $800 and I bought it for $400.

Sounding excellent on DMR here in the Winnipeg area. Yeah, I do a little bit. No major regrets.

You mentioned the HR 2510, man I had quite a few of those over the years, and it's been probably 25 years since I owned one, but I had one in mint shape. All the mods done to it for everything, AM, receive, power, I mean everything. Fully aligned, the whole deal, and I should never have let it go. But, 703, with the 603, I mean, I've been six meters in it. I had that as a QRP radio, and I went through a phase of QRP radios with the 817 and some other models. But the 703 with the 6 meter, I wish I would have kept that. It was a fantastic receiver, better than the 706. I had multiple of those over the years, and had a built-in tuner. It was sweet little 10 watt radio, and Poda, you know, what it is today, it would have been a perfect Poda radio. No mess or fuss with external tuners and all the cables and all that, just drop that baby down. Yeah, it sucks a bit of power, but you know, put a bit size battery on it, you run all day on that thing. All in one solution, and it had a fantastic receiver. Like I said, better than the 706 Mark IIG. So I wish I would have kept that. It would have been an awesome little Poda radio. Not interested in the 705s and all that stuff out now. Other than that, yeah, not much to report from southeast Manitoba. I'm about 40 kilometers southeast. I want to thank you for going through DMR here. We'll let you go.

I had the same issue with a receiver I sold at one time. I wish I didn't sell it there after I sold it a while later. But other than that, we're hanging on to what we got.

I'll say I regret selling a Sony, speaking of receivers, a Sony 2010. ICF-SW 2010, back in the 1990s I had one of those and worked great, never should have gotten rid of it. Scott VA7SL, welcome to the net. Our question of the week is, do you regret selling any of your ham gear?"}]}
