But I came back in to invite folks to come over to the KC7 FMW conference and visit with us there seven days a week. Our moderated edition is at 6 am Pacific, 9 am East Coast time and we're across the pond I think it would be like 1400 UTC or about 2 pm 1400 and maybe I'm off I don't know. Then again we have one at 4 pm Pacific, 7 pm East Coast time and about 1 am UTC. So stop in and visit with us there and it's on the Q06 Foxtrot November conference. We'd love to have you come on over and pay us a visit and got to let you all know that it is a gravitational round table so when your name and call sign get to the bottom of the list it will be your turn at the mic. And we also have a website come and visit www.ourcoffeeshop.org for a wealth of information relating to interested amateur radio operators and maybe get some new people in there. It's a great place to happen, a great place to come on in and have a cup of coffee with us so stop in there any time during those designated times and we'd love to have you come in.

I actually slept in today. I'm really sleeping well here in my new apartment. So I actually logged in late as Joyce was coming in apparently for a second round. I said Joyce I heard your voice. I wasn't on in the beginning because I was still snoring. Well not snoring because I use a CPAP but you know what I mean. Anyway I'm doing well. I'm still doing a little bit of the readjusting where things are located so it fits my morning routine a little bit better. I just know the right thing for me to do to move here. The bad part is I'm disconnected and I don't see Jeannie as much as I normally would. But I will see her on the Saturday game days as I did last Saturday. I drove over and had a fun time. Anyway it's all going well. I apologize to all for not waking up and being here when the net started. Today after breakfast and taking tears of paperwork business and virtual church through the internet I ended up going to the VFW in Apache Junction to have lunch and play bingo. I ended up having Philly Cheese Steak which was pretty good. It wasn't fantastic but it was pretty good. I was a bad boy and had a root beer. After that I only had one root beer and then I shifted over to bottled water after that because I'm not supposed to take in any sugars. But I did. I was celebrating. The really big reason for missing that is I won game five of bingo. Two hundred and sixty two dollars came into my pocket. Wow. I enjoy playing bingo not for the money but for the social. Chatting with people and doing things and getting out and seeing the world etc. But if I win some money that's also good. Joyce it was good to hear you. I didn't hear anybody else other than Mel.

Today I am continuing my saga of trying to get my 40 by 10 meter off center fed antenna up and running. Had it up a couple of times. Has a super high noise floor and haven't been very successful making contacts on it yet. So I'm just kind of going through all the little things, putting jokes on both ends of the feed line and trying different configurations, different heights. I think I might live in a place that's kind of noisy. But anyway, learning a lot and having fun. Should be a great day today for sports. We got the Mariners and the Seahawks together so I guess I have to figure out how to make my TV work and what do they call that when you put a couple of boxes on your TV with different games on.

I kind of got myself, I didn't get myself, but I have an embarrassing situation that after being gone for six months, we got the computer hooked up and my printer didn't want to connect to my computer. And so I fiddled around with it and well, first of all, the ink was all dried up so I went out and bought brand new ink, put it in and only to find out after that that Hewlett-Packard is no longer supporting that printer and there are no drivers available for it any place. So it's pretty old, I mean I don't know how old it is. And I've been having trouble with it anyway, so I bought a new printer and of course the cartridges are different. So anyway, if anybody is still printing with an HP printer that uses HP 61 ink, I have got two brand new ones here that I purchased yesterday that have zero print on them. So I'm going to have them with me at the Rainier Shine Net next Saturday. And if anybody wants to get a hold of me, my email is good on QRZ, so I'm in that position of having just wasted $70 on ink, but I'm giving it away free to anybody that could use some HP 61 cartridges, black and the dry color. So anyway, that's it. We'll see everybody on Saturday. Looking forward to it. We have to make a trip to Vekto today, so we'll see what that brings.

Darren in, I think you said Missouri, I can't remember. To let Darren know, as he keys up something is transmitting a tremendous noise with your audio. Boy, I've never heard it on two meters. You get things like that on 80 and 40 and other bands. But that's interesting. And it was only from Darren, it wasn't elsewhere on the net, on the radio. So, anyway I'm not doing much. I didn't get up too early to 10 and didn't realize it that late. And had to run a package back to UPS to send to Amazon. They sent me the wrong stuff, or the supplier did. And stopped by and got a coffee. Fortunately, the only local Starbucks closed down here, down to Kirkland. So I went to one in Houghton, which is two miles away. I asked for a mocha with half shot of decaf. Well they gave me half decaf, that means they gave me two shots of coffee. Unfortunately, my stomach doesn't like a lot of coffee. So I'll probably have to throw this out. And I need to explain to the person, I'm not against foreigners, but the person is from China and I don't think they understand their language completely. So, anyway that's life. So what am I doing? I heard on the Lake Washington net, there was an Amazon how to eat or something. I have no clue what it is because I don't depend on my computer very much. I haven't turned it on yet today. So I'll go turn it on, pick up some emails, then mosey away from it for quite a while. I'll probably go for a walk this afternoon if it doesn't rain on me. And then turn it back on, maybe seven or eight tonight, and pick up some more emails and whatever. I use the computer and I'm going to drop Rebecca. I use the computer for an information finding source. It's like you go to the library and hold and pull out a book, find one of those books and read the right page, take notes and then all of a sudden the copy machine showed up. So you just copy that page. So to me, I'm not dependent on electronics. I can't turn off my lights and my voice. We do have little mechanical climbers though when we go on vacation to turn different lights on and off. So people probably think we're in the dark ages. Oh well. I know I can be pretty dependent even if the power goes off. I've got a natural gas generator. But I always wonder what happens if the gas line breaks during a big earthquake. Of course, it'll probably break the water and sewer lines too, so everybody will be in big, deep, separate tank. Anyway, thanks for the net, Rebecca. I didn't mean to meander so much. Everybody have a safe day out there. And looking forward to the Halloween this Saturday with Jack. I wonder if we can put O'Lantern behind him. Boy, boy, I'm getting weird with the humor and Jack's going to say something. Anyway, you guys take care out there. Be safe. Thanks again, Rebecca. Whiskey Alpha 7 Alpha Delta.

So probably didn't affect us out here on the West Coast much. And as far as worrying about things like the gas line going out, yeah, that could happen. I was just having some dry sticks and maybe a flint or something. I'm fortunate I got a couple hundred watt solar panels, solar controller, and 300 amp hour lithium ion batteries.

So Lake Washington Ham Club has started this, they started this last year, Jennifer did, KK7BRR started, so when it starts cooling down she organized ham radio meetups, she calls them hangouts at the hanger, at the Kenmore town square hanger. So it's this indoor sort of public space with a coffee shop and clean bathrooms and fireplace. She organized it once a month in place of rain or shine. They have hangout at the hangers on Saturday from one to four every month until it warms up. So this Saturday if you don't make it to the rain or shine, the PSRG rain or shine, if you think it's too cold, like James, you can go to the Lake Washington Ham Club, hangout at the hanger at the Kenwood, did I say that right? Kenwood, not community center, the town center, yeah, hangout at the hanger. But you can find out all about that at lakewashingtonhamclub.org.

I'm probably going to be a little tired waking up tomorrow though because I'm staying up to watch the game tonight.

I do like to do laundry fairly often but I think I can put it off for today. I'll just focus on packing stuff into bags so that I don't have to repack when I need to drop by the house quickly and pick one up and go. So, at least the house is getting more organized over here. It's looking a lot cleaner because there isn't stuff just piled on the couch. It's actually getting organized into different bags. One with electronics, one with clothes, one with art supplies.

But today I drilled a hole in the side of the shed and I put the little waterproof box up there and I fed at least one of the wires through. Tonight when I get home I'll feed the other one through, put the cap on it. And until I can get the other antenna up I'm going to tie my VHF, UHF antenna onto the two radios that can use it.

Hello Jack, hello Rebecca and everyone else out there. Yeah, it's Jeff AB6MB on the San Francisco Bay. We're sunny out there, I bet you're shocked to hear that. And 67 degrees outside, very nice day. There's the squirrel running up there on the bat, he's come around right off with a peat in his mouth and taken off. I think that was Princess actually. Sorry Princess, call J.E. Meanwhile, all this stuff is out there. I woke up earlier today and then went back to bed and got up at a couple minutes after noon and here I am. Wide awake too, drinking coffee. Which I'm not afraid to drink. It's pretty, really hits the spot, good old Starbucks coffee. Let's see here, I got a Keurig coffee maker that does a pretty good job. Oh, there's a little birdie on there, eating up the little bits of the nuts that the squirrels leave behind. So they haven't been able to show up lately. So, see what else is going on here. I've been watching the weather report for Seattle and it's cloudy up there according to this. So, and the temperature is supposed to be like 58 or something like that, maybe 52. Kinda hard to tell.

I'll tell you they're incredible did a great job I just came from two of the warehouses here in summer and headed back to Lacey and Let's see what else. Oh we went to the rally this weekend and Olympia and they were all over. I guess literally all over the world. It was really neat. It was just like a big Festival like a friendly festival and everybody was really cool. We had a great time and Made a point and everything like that so it's really really time well spent really glad it went Anyway, that's about it. We're having a good day here.

My brother took me to a concert so I got to see the original Leonard Skynyrd and I've been a fan ever since then and I certainly remember when that All that news came over the radio and everything I was just Shocked I think a lot of people were back then but yep, it's hard to believe it was that long ago. But yeah Anyway, not a lot else going on.

This is KA9 EHV and in Seattle. And it's interesting, so I spent today on a scene that was the worst thing to write I've done in quite a while. So many years ago I did a little pamphlet on how to write a scene about a common experience applied to a new and imaginary thing. And specifically I was using the subject of post-traumatic stress disorder which I have from at least three different sources. And so I had written journal entries from each of my three different sources. And then I had taken those entries and transmogrified them into this scene where the protagonist was having deep exposure therapy in an attempt to get rid of a really troubling case of PTSD. And I had forgotten that until I went to write this scene today where the character is having post-traumatic reactions in a place that is unexpected but shouldn't be. And oh man, that left me emotionally wiped out. So beware of what you want to write. It can have interesting and unintended consequences. And other than that disappointment that the M's lost is basically all the rest of what's happened today. 733388, thanks Joan for doing the net. Thanks to all of you for listening. I love you all.

After that, today I've just been resting. My leg seems to be healing a lot more. And today I had school off today because it was PA day or PD day. So teachers were at school, but students weren't.

And as per your request, you're old-fashioned. Let's see. So something that came up in the last minute or so reminded me of a situation where I and somebody else came by and got assembled in a can and put it up, set up the IRD and were acting as a control. And we had this number on the front. We didn't have instructions. We just had a number. So we were adjusting what we could and the position and trying to get the highest number. And then when I came to work the next day, the engineering supervisor said, Well, you did a good, nice job setting it up, except the number on the front says bit error rate. So you set it up for the maximum bit error rate that you could get before you didn't have a signal. So it really helped to have the instructions. And in fact, I put together an e-band dish in the lead-on pub. And I went back to the supervisor. It wasn't that they put the hub together both sides. They welded the others out of position. And the instruction activities didn't work out. I told the boss, No, that can't be. I checked it out. Yep, gotta ship it back. So there's things that somehow your boss may not believe it's right. Sometimes you're right. And, you know, finding a, when I'm not working that radio, I find a way to put a loop on this thing and not use the center cable here to kind of weld and not express the thing."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-10-20T21:29:00+00:00","id":65361,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":65360,"text":" And yeah, so this thing if I loosen the connectivity adapter, it's a little bit more required to get a good connection to the bank.

I also used to have a C-band dish that I bought, used, or actually I don't think I even paid for the dish, it was, I never had it in service, although two of my siblings, the other two ham radio operators, Clay and Brian, have both had working C-band dishes. But I wanted to use it to, I had this idea that it was a way to start possibility of moon bounce, like using SHF moon bounce, and, uh, it was a C-band dish, so, super high frequency. Well anyway, take care, uh, Mike, and I wrote things down, I wrote C-band dish and I wrote max bit error rate. Take care, and I'll see you at the Rain or Shine.

Um, moon bounce, well, I think my uncle used to sell C-band equipment, uh, boy, that would have been a good thing to grab ahold of. Those are like the two and a half meter parabolic dishes. I remember when, uh, you knew when somebody had money, I had the sticks where I lived because they had a satellite. Um, that was not us, by the way. Yeah, we'd get Channel 2 sometimes through, through a VHF ducting down at Olympia. Channel 2 came from Victoria, so that was pretty unusual atmospheric conditions, but that was as long distance and exotic as it was down there. Um, what I was going to say is Sean reminded me, uh, speaking of the sunset, that, uh, I sort of saw it tonight, but, um, I was in an unusual location. I was on my roof, I went out again, I think I might have diagnosed the problem with noise, uh, for the Simplex net, so hopefully next week, hopefully, I can hear Jones transmission. That would be really cool. That's kind of my indicator of when everything's set up just right because, uh, for some reason, it's, it's tough to get Capitol Hill. You'd think it'd be easy for where I'm at in Kirkland, which is almost line of sight, but I think we must have an obstruction between us. So that'll be the test Saturday.

If you informed me that you were going to do a test, but because I'm so close, I'm less than a click away from the receive antenna here on the Capitol Park. I can see the top, the elevator dog house on the top of the Capitol Park building from my apartment. So I threw about 20 decibels of attenuation on my transmitter. So the output, I also have a 1 to 1 SWR. Partially because I have 20 decibels of attenuator on it. So the reflected power needle on my cross needle meter barely moves at all. So it's showing an output of 3.8 watts and not only 5 watts but measured 3.8. And at 1 minus 20 decibels is 38 milliwatts or about 15 dBm. So to hear me directly, Simplex, when I'm only trying to get the repeater of my attenuator stack, and I've used far less power too. I think it's reasonable to attenuate 20 decibels. And I still stomp on people, any normal operators, you know, QRM aside. But yeah, so if you can pick me up directly, if you can't pick me up, keep in mind that I'm only using about 15 dBm, like 38 milliwatts. But I'd be willing to experimentally use more if I knew someone was monitoring to try to pick me up directly. And I do engage with the Simplex net.

And it's actually the best sweet spot I've found in my apartment is conveniently leaning the J-Pole in the northeast corner. So if you're talking about picking me up when I'm on the simplex net, then I'm running 22 watts. And in that case, no matter where you are, you ought to be able to hear me. But of course, it's also the fun of radio. It's like fishing, kind of like fishing. My dad tried to get me interested in fishing. I was his eldest. I liked being out in the water. I just didn't like murdering those poor fish. They were so mad. I caught this huge pike one time. He was really mad at me. That pike wanted to kill me. That pike, pardon my language, wanted to damn me to hell. But it only had a brain the size of a pea. But it was still mad. That was enough brain for it to be extremely mad.

It's fun to learn new skills and push your own limits at the skills. For me lately it's been the whole code and AI and all that fun stuff. Just seeing what I can do with it. And like, this project is a push because my code knowledge is limited and I'm not an artist. So I have to use computers to fill in the gaps of basically everything. And there's a lot of gaps there. And trying to make computers do human things is really hard. But it's an adventure and it's really fun. It just helps us line up with winter starting now. So yeah, I'll spend more time on it. This summer I'm all over the place. I own properties in several states, I'm struggling everywhere. And then I have the further moment of adventure that I decide to chase as well. Anyways, this is KK7 and QN back to the net. Hunter and also looking at your QRZ page and exploring the outdoors and backcountry hiking. Also awesome things. And off-grid power systems and solar design. Also a couple of things I love. And in fact I've lived off the grid for years with my former partner in the upper peninsula of Michigan. And that camp that we lived in is still there, although we have a partnership in the land to a couple of other people that were co-owners. But it's still there. And it's still way off the grid. The upper peninsula has electrical grid coming from two sides and there's a gap in the middle. So western upper peninsula gets power from Wisconsin and then the eastern upper peninsula gets power from northern Wisconsin. And then lower Michigan. And the power grids don't meet. So we lived, for instance, in that particular situation, three and a half miles off the grid from the Marquette countryside and 1.9 miles off the grid from the Alger countryside. But we had a small solar panel which was enough to keep one big deep cycle battery topped off most of the time and it was enough to do ham radio. That's what we used it for. And some 25 watt incandescent Edison based bulbs in a back room and a shed. So anyway, yep, I keep running into hams tonight who are people like to go into wilderness or the semi-wilderness.

Now, in regards to having to control a kettle, I used to have it do exactly that. All you gotta do to get it to control your kettle. All you gotta do to get it to control your kettle is to get a smart switch, or a smart plug, and plug your kettle into that. And then in the app for the switch, name it Kettle. And then in your Google, you just program a routine. So you set up a trigger word, like you said, Boil a Kettle. So if I said, hey, G-word, Boil a Kettle, it wouldn't know what that means to turn on the switch. You always just gotta make sure you got water in the kettle, because if not, you'll burn the freaking element out of it. But as long as you've got water in there, it's good to go. Because I used to drink coffee every single morning, and I'd want it, you know, already hot when I woke up. So my alarm was for, let's say, 845. My kettle would come on at like 840 or 838, and then I would have it boil for like five minutes, and then switch itself off. And then when I got up, the water would be boiling hot. So the whole routine for Boil a Kettle would be turn on the kettle at, you know, whatever time, and then turn it off at whatever time. But then I could use this phrase, Boil a Kettle. So it would automate every single morning, Monday to Friday, and then when I got up, I'd have boiling hot water. So it's pretty simple to do that stuff. Now when it comes to a microwave or a stove, you'd need to have integrations into that appliance that allowed for Google integration. My projector, for instance, it's not smart, but it does have the ability to turn on automatically when you plug it in. So that means you can use it with a smart switch. So when I got my projector right now plugged into one of those smart outlets that I was talking about, so when I say either, Hey G Word TV time or Hey G Word engage, what it will do is it will turn on my projector, it will turn on the home theater amp, and it will switch to the input for the Chromecast. So it fires right up and it's right in TV mode. Bloody hell. I'm getting messages on my wrist here. I'll look at these guys in a little while. So yeah, I've got routine set up for certain things. I'm going to go ahead and turn on my projector."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-10-21T04:54:45+00:00","id":65598,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":65597,"text":" I've got a routine set up for certain things and it will do a bunch of actions based on one phrase. So you program all that, you get into the Google Home app and you program routines and stuff like that, right? Like when I say bedtime for instance, what it does is it turns off all the lights in my house and then it sets the hallway light to 1%. So all the other lights are off but the hallway is on and the hallway is dimmed out. So you know, just in case I've got to go to the bathroom or something like that in the middle of the night, I don't have to go and say anything to Google. It just automatically dimmed out in the hallway and the bathroom without breaking myself up. So lots of cool stuff. When I say good morning, it will turn on a couple of the lights, the lamp over my desk and the one in the bathroom. And then I go and it used to say the news and the weather as well when I said good morning but I turned that off because I just don't want it every time. But yeah, lots of cool fun stuff you can do with these assistants and the devices. And I'm only using two now. I used to use three. I used to have a Raspberry Pi with a mic connected to it. So it was running Google and then I had a, well I have the little smart display that's at the desk and then in the bedroom I have one of these speakers that's like a cylinder. So it basically gives me a home control, you know, all over my whole apartment with the same stuff where it's all locked into Google. So it's really cool and I like it. I've gotten very used to it and hopefully Google doesn't discontinue these products anytime soon because I really like it. All righty then. We're at the bottom of the list.

I'm a former Charlie Bravo enthusiast myself back when I was younger. Also in the 80s and 90s I did mess around with a lot of radios and a lot of very heavily modified radios I don't mind saying. I was a fan of the free banding stuff and the triple five and all of those frequencies. I was belonging to an international DX group that had our place up there. I got bored of the lower 40 and got into the triple five and all of those frequencies and had a great time with it too. I made a lot of contacts. I live in St. John's, Newfoundland. We're an island way off the coast of Canada up here and I live on the very most eastern tip of that island. So we got nothing but ocean in between us and all of the eastern United States, Europe and Ireland and just all of those places. Nothing but water. So I made a lot of contacts around the world when I used to use that stuff back in the day. Had an Antron 99 about 50 feet in the air and it was a lot of fun. And now I really like ham radio. I have. I've been licensed for about 20 years. It'll be 20 years in April 2026. Absolutely love it man. It's a lot of fun. And when you use these internet linked modes, like for instance I'm on a handheld right now coming through a repeater that's located in my kitchen. And that hooks to an antenna that's about 650 feet in the air. And I just absolutely love it. I can take the portable with me and I can stay connected to the system here.

It shows on the glass and people outside can't see it, but you can see it. They're over $1,000 bucks. Man, I tell you, I was hoping when I first saw this technology, right, because you know I've been following it since the Air 2. And it just seems they discontinue the older models and don't sell them cheaper. And then they make newer models and they charge more for them. It's nice to be going on with these things, because this newer one is over $1,000 bucks. It's like $1,099, like $1,100 bucks for essentially just video glasses.

You're up late tonight I'll be on the yeah, huge a sound system and three and TV back to net catch all later Well Dave I had a couple questions for you before you leave and an idea One have you checked out OBS? Yes, that's a broadcasting software. I told you about and You know how how you do it now? You're you're get your camera on with a mic and people on YouTube can hear the audio of your radio But they're hearing it through the mic in the camera or whatever and they're not here getting the audio from the radio Well, you can take a double-ended cable Plug one end into the line in on whichever computer you're using to do the broadcasting and the other end into the headphone jack On whichever radio you want the audio to come from Actually make it so that you blend the audio directly from your radio and your cameras speaker or your camera's microphone and Put your radio audio clearly through OBS so it would so you give you a slider So you can turn the radio volume up and down on the slider within the software That'll make it so that anybody watching your YouTube feed would get a crystal-clear broadcast of what's coming out of your radio back to you"},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-10-21T05:21:46+00:00","id":65627,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":65626,"text":" Okay, I'm looking at OBS.

But the neat part with that, with doing ATV, if I can't hear what your call sign is, I see your face. I hope you are. But yeah, we're looking forward to it. I mean, it's going to be a lot of new things going on here. So, right now the camera's behind me. I can't never hook it up with anybody. Yeah, a lot of times I just leave it on when I'm not in here, so if you watch, you'll hear what's going on, do drop in, or my scanners, everything else. So, it's, especially if hockey's going on, I don't want on to, Al, because I might get a little upset with the game and say some stuff I shouldn't. With that, take it back to Net. Man, if I have any questions, I'll text you and ask you. But, yeah, take care of my voice, honeydew list, and get some shut eye for a little bit. Do some more destruction this afternoon.

It does a lot of cool stuff I was playing around with it again yesterday because what I'm thinking about doing on mornings when I'm not On the net or when I'm not net control I Could play video games and have that broadcast through my game capture device, but then take the audio from my radio With the audio from my monitor mic or from my you know headset so that while I'm talking while I'm playing the game You'll hear that plus you'll also be able to listen to the net at the same time So I've been playing around with some stuff up here in regard to this as well So lots of fun to be had man.

It's video as well. You can take video sources and put them through this software. You can also take audio sources from multiple locations. The software I'm talking about OBS, I think it stands for Open Source Broadcasting Software, and it allows you to take multiple video signals and audio signals from multiple different sources and arrange them into different scenes so that when you're broadcasting live to YouTube, you can switch things up in real time, have it pre-programmed, so that when you want to switch to something, it's all just there right on your screen, and you can just switch back and forth between, let's say, a camera that's pointed at you, a video game source, a couple of different microphones for different things. You can have your TV hooked up to it, so if you wanted to broadcast a news story or something over there, you could do all kinds of cool stuff with this software.

My son went to Berklee College of Music, and he spent a lot of time in business classes at that, because it's a very practical school. It's all about making it in music. And he spent a lot of time in business classes on the legal aspects of producing music and using it and all that stuff. It's amazing. And as I know, he really hasn't used it. He had a band for a while, which was very successful. He's playing clubs all over Long Island in New York, New Jersey. And then York bands too, they fall apart. And so that was it.

But the copyright thing is interesting, to say the least. I did check into a few legitimate websites that you can go to that you can pull down video pictures, sound effects, and music. And it's all protected. You can use it on YouTube. You know, you can do your paying. So people are looking into getting that kind of stuff incorporated into the videos that can be done. And it doesn't get that complicated because things are approved already, and YouTube won't take them down. At least that's what I've been told. Me personally, I'm still working on this website. I love doing the video and all that kind of stuff. I got a few videos up on YouTube. Some got pretty heavy hits, nothing like what you see today. There's 100,000 people that watch this video. But I did some stupid ones like, what does chicken hauling look like? It's just going panning down the side of an 18-wheeler and all the chickens all cramped together and peeing all over themselves and everything else. And I got a lot of hits. There's a few of those I can't remember right now. Oh, the KLR one. Yeah, I didn't want to go by my motorcycle. Why I went from Harley to KLR 650. I got some pretty good ones. But other than that, no. But the website, I'm still learning. In fact, I've been thinking about it last night. The problem I was having, Ben was talking about what you saw. I was trying to see how I could track it. I think I've come up with a solution. It's kind of weird how you got to reach the coast to do exactly what you want to do. I'm just a little bit confused. I'm going to figure it out. It's going to look good when I get done. Anything else? Not really. Not really. I just finally got out of Omaha. There are traffic jams in Omaha are a joke. Compared to New York, Kansas City, St. Louis, Omaha is just off in the bucket. The rush hour is pathetic, which is good. I like that. The mornings, same thing for the most part. I think Omaha is one of the biggest cities. Of course, Omaha is the biggest city in Nebraska. I don't know, maybe 400,000. Not very big. I'm talking about outskirts and everything. All those little cities that are around. Anyhow, I'll return it back to Met Control.

It's been a long time. As much as I use them. I don't, you know, and part of the issue is that I just, I don't do a lot of TV watching or anything like that. That's kind of what I got it for. I kind of got it for, you know, watching things, videos or well movies, things like that. You know, I wanted something that was nice to, you know, have a big screen. And when I'm using it to watch movies, it's better. But I still haven't re-hooked it up to my other head, my other phone where you can have, or the computer where you can have screens and stuff because of the prescription. And I'm wondering if I put the right numbers in for the prescription. But when I put the lenses up on the, into the socket where they're supposed to go, they don't use the, well I guess they don't cover, they cover, they seem like they're too big. And so the bottom portion isn't, you're not seeing through the bottom portion which is where you do your reading. You know, you read your glasses when you read something, it's usually through the bottom portion of your glasses and not the middle of the top. That's for seeing in distance. So I'm just, I'm wondering if that has something to do with that also. Or if it's just that, you know, maybe I sent in, because I used my old prescription and I filled in the numbers I thought I was supposed to fill in. And that's always bugged me. You know, it's like, I want to take it with me to the optometrist to make sure that they give me the right ones. Now I have had good effect on headsets like my goggles for my drone. Those ones are, you know, circular in their, or kind of, they're snap-ons. So you snap them on to the place where they go on to the headset. And those ones work great. Those ones are, you know, perfect. So these ones that are like little glasses that snap in there and then you see through the screen that's the prism or whatever on the inside. Those just didn't seem to work out very well for me. Let's make that one here."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-10-21T05:51:42+00:00","id":65648,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":65647,"text":" All right. So, yeah, that's my experience thus far. I still have them in the truck and I'll probably try to use them now that I get a new student, I'll probably try to use them again and see where I stand with that and then maybe but, you know, it's $70, I think it was $60, $70 for the prescription for the lenses. So it's like, you know, I don't want to, you know, keep pushing out that amount for something that's, you know, not going to, you know, work right. So, you know, I've still been trying to decide, you know, what I want to do with them because, you know, they seem like a really cool idea. Now the ones that I got, well, they have another pair from another company that have like a blackout screen for your glasses. They're electronic and you can black them out. And those ones actually have a plus minus diopter built into them so you can adjust unless you're, you know, outside the range. I think they go to plus five or minus five. So if you've got something stronger than that, then you might be out of luck or not quite as clear. But I'm wondering if that would have been a better solution. Of course those ones were more expensive. Plus they had the electronic darkener so it gets the outside of the glasses dark because you can see through the lenses. So if you're watching something and there's something happening in the background, you can refocus on what's going on in the background and see what's going on. But it also lets in light. So the screen isn't quite as bright, you know, unless you're looking at something that's dark or a darker area. Yeah, so there's definitely things to consider. And, you know, having to wear glasses, you know, wasn't very helpful. And I was just looking at Josh's posts from yesterday, 105 or supposedly was 94. But, you know, being in the car with the metal and everything heating up and, you know, it's about that temperature here in Phoenix is about 90, 91, somewhere in that area, 92. But my semi-lodged truck, the AC doesn't work. So I've got that 265 AC going on there, two windows down at 65 miles an hour. But, you know, it was hot. I drank a lot of water yesterday.

That sounds like a very satisfactory experience with the Air 3s. That's too bad. That really is too bad. I've noticed, I mean, Google Glass worked really well. It was limited. You couldn't do a lot with it. People freaked out about it. That was not helpful, but there was no problem seeing through them. That was another thing where you were kind of looking in a little mirror that showed you the screen. It was only on one side. I like that because you were really aware of your surroundings. It was great. The only time I think I ever really utilized them was when driving because it would put the map up in front of your eye. You could see all your messages and stuff like that would be coming up. It wasn't distracting. You could concentrate on what was going on behind it and stuff like that. It was sort of a reference point. I liked it. I got the VR goggles from Paypal. I forget the company that made them. You could wear your glasses and put those goggles on. It was not comfortable, but the focus was always really soft. There was no dye up through there. Just kind of sharpened it up, which I think it really needs. Those things, you know, if you wear glasses, you need that. Even if you don't. So there you go. I'm holding off on it. KJ5IRQ, Josh, do you wear glasses?

I just don't want to take a chance with her. So I was holding her for a second. Alright. Starting off with Texas weather. Today's high is going to be 79. Like I said, if you don't like the weather, wait five minutes or a day. Yeah, yesterday it got up to 94, 95 is what it ended up getting up to. In the truck, I just thought it was humorous, that's why I dropped that in the chat. Is because, you know, of course vehicles always say it's harder than what it is because their sensors usually out, you know, somewhere in the sun or whatever. And it did, it said 104, 105, something like that. So it was warm. Started off a really chilly day. I wore a hoodie yesterday morning, but it did end up being a shortened t-shirt kind of day. Today will be too, just not as warm. I did just see the forecast for the next ten days and there's not a 90 in sight. So I am happy about that. We got painters here. So the contractors last week finished my siding and everything. So the house is looking patchworked is a good way to put it. It's patchworked right now. Well, again, get over here. So they're coming today. Well, they came yesterday and they prepped everything and caulked everything. Today they're coming to power wash and I guess get ready to paint. And we're painting the house, the wood parts of the house, a neutral kind of brown color. Because the bricks are kind of light brown. We almost went with black, which our shutters are. But brown, I mean, if the house has a cell or whatever, we want it to be something neutral for that. Let's see. So that's going to take up the next couple of days while I'm working. Smart glasses, great topic. I do wear glasses. I have worn glasses every day for about, oh gosh, now it's been five, six, seven years. I have an eye problem. I can't pronounce the name of it. My wife could, but she's not here at the moment. It's degenerative, meaning my eyes will get worse as I get older. This ain't I'll probably be legally blind by the time I'm 65 or 70. I think I'll be all right with that. I'll be surprised to see 75 or 80 in my lifetime. So glasses, I'm dying to get a pair. I really am. I just don't know if the technology is quite there yet. So I'm not in the rush. We'll wait until 2026 and see how that shakes out. Kind of living vicariously with bits and parts that Bill talks about with his glasses. I am kind of sold on the meta. I'm going to break real quick. All right, KJ5i or Q return briefly. The meta glasses, they seem to be pretty cool. The nurse pairs are, I don't know, somewhere around $1,000-ish or so. And I'd have to get lenses put in them. Well, I wear progressives, and so I've got three different, I don't know what they call them, spots or areas on my lenses depending on what I'm doing, whether I'm reading the far away, up close, or looking through the side like my peripheral vision, my P vision. So I'm not sure how that would also work out with those glasses. That's something I'm interested in finding out. But I am very interested in them. Of course, as much as I do work and computer work for work and everything, I mean, in my mind, it's almost like having all my e-mails and all of my messenger stuff that we do all day at work, instead of coming across on my computer, it could just pop across my eye. To me, that would be awesome. Then instantly be able to say, yep, deal with that. Nope, don't need to deal with that without having to go to a different screen. For y'all who don't know, I have a triple-wide monitor set up for work. So I've got three monitors on there. So adding a fourth one to my eyeball would just be par for the course.

But it's so damn expensive that it's priced outreach or it's priced out of reach for a lot of people. And yeah, but in regard to glasses, I'm not sure. Do we got to get down, buddy? I'm doing something here on the desk. Yeah, they have a headset, kind of like the MetaQuest. I actually have one of those here now, Gray. I've had it for the last couple of weeks. It's the MetaQuest 2. And that one does have adjustments for your eye spacing, so you can clarify it. You know, it kind of moves the eyes apart or closer together, diopters or whatever you call it. And the newest one can actually move the lens in and out and left to right. You can really fine tune it. You should never wear glasses with the MetaQuest, especially the MetaQuest 2. A little less especially, but still especially, there are inserts that you can get for those headsets. There are lenses that go over the other lenses. They just snap in. Different companies make them. That's what you should get because the MetaQuest and MetaQuest 2 use Fresnel lenses. And if you scratch one of those, it's going to mess your field of view up. And that's what glasses will do. If the frame of your glasses hits one of those Fresnel, do it. You got to get down, buddy. Everything on the desk goes with them. Yeah, the new MetaQuest 3 and 3S, they use pancake lenses as opposed to Fresnel's, which give a better picture, a wider field of view, and better edge clarity. Brother-in-law has one of those, the MetaQuest 3S. And he loves it. And it has color passthrough. So the MetaQuest and Quest 2 have black and white passthrough, which you can see your surroundings, but it's in black and white, which is still fun. I was able to read my phone while I was in the headset and look at stuff on my desk and pick up things that were around my desk. Plus, you can bring things into your virtual environment that are physical, like a coffee table, or your desk, or your computer monitors. It's very cool. That technology is very cool. And they've made it now so you can grab ahold of the edge of a window in VR and pull it really close. Like if you've got a vision problem, you can actually grab the window and physically move it toward you in the MetaQuest, Quest 2, and Quest 3. So lots of cool stuff.

And I don't know if that's something you'd be interested in or not. I can't see those things being easy to drive with because they are going to partially obstruct your view because of the screen. But yeah. This is repeater station kilo kilo seven November Quebec \u2013 All right Bill. I thought the Apple headset was really awesome. And again though, it was powered by a cord. That was a big problem for me. And two, I don't sit around much. I'm always doing stuff. So I definitely want to go \u2013 I mean you could do with the Apple headset. And people could actually see your face. They had a screen in the front with a picture of your face on it. So it actually looked like you. I thought that was pretty clever. And they looked easy to control. And they had a lot of things. But that's only if you are sitting around. And that's \u2013 I don't think that's as good as what I wanted. But Bill sent me something from Meta about their new glasses. And attached to that is an article about Apple fast tracking smart glasses. And they did such a good job on that headset. I've never tried it. But it just looked like such an incredible job that they did on it. I was very impressed. But I think everybody is kind of waiting for the Apple glasses when they come out. What's that going to be like? And again, if you have \u2013 the experience I want is totally mobile. And I can go anywhere. And I can do face recognition. I can do all sorts of stuff like that. See where I am on a map. Read the latest news. If you're sitting in the doctor's office, sitting around waiting for something. And the same thing that you pull your phone out for. It would be great to have that in your glasses. Anyway, back to you Bill. Why don't you KC? This is KC2BJG. These ones that I spoke about earlier in the net, they sound like what you would want. It's a clear lens. Your info shows up. Your screen shows up on the lens, but it is only visible to you. And it is a nice big color display that is opaque I guess. It is transparent. But then you can adjust the lenses. It's got these electrochromic tint lenses. So when you're outside you can turn them into sunglasses and you can still see your transparent screen. They also have a camera in them. Apparently they will do GPS. Apparently real world AR. So when you're walking around and you look at a restaurant, it will automatically pop up the menu to the place without you having to go in there right in your field of view. You control them with a touch pad that is on one of the cameras so you can kind of manipulate what you're seeing like scroll and things like that. They are $1,099 bucks, but they come with all the accessories, the little pocket TV thing. And these are the ones you can wear and take with you around everywhere. Now the Apple Vision Pro, that has a battery in it and you can take it wherever you go. But it is a VR headset. It is big and it is clunky. I mean it looks like the Quest kind of looks on your head. It is way smaller, way thinner from like your face to the front of the headset, but it is still a VR headset. But the glasses that Bill has, you can see through them, but there is like a screen up on the top that you can't see through. It is like a little box with a screen on the top and that is on both eyes. So it uses both eyes to make a 201 inch giant display right in front of you. There are several different levels of tech when it comes to these glasses and I have been looking into most of it. Whenever something new comes out I usually get the video because I am interested in that top. And these newer ones, they are not Rayneo. They are made by another company. Well, Rayneo is not even the company. TCL is the company. Rayneo is the brand I guess. But the glasses it sells are TCL, Rayneo Air 3S Pro. There is a Pro version now as well. An even newer one than the one Bill has, and Bill had the newest one when it was newest, and that is not even that long ago. And they have already got a Pro version of those that are out there.

That means I'm not necessarily against. Like well for instance at some point I want to get the Victor, the Victor Stream which is a streaming device for those of you. And it's like several thousands of dollars because it has a, well some of them have the braille screen and a few other things. But why is it like it because it's another streaming toy I guess and you know basically it would be sort of an extension of my phone. But that's funny I knew someone, well see some people get all the deals because I knew someone that had gotten locked up and weren't coming out for quite a while and then they managed somehow to get this skate or wherever it was they were locked up to buy them a Victor Stream. So yeah I guess they're lucky. I guess some of those programs are, well like somebody knows about it. But either or, oh and since I've been here the BC bud is pretty expensive so I'm kind of cheap when I get stuff. So the store at the Metropolis Mall, the weed store there, they have the budget bud which is basically there's mixtures of different strains in it and you can get ounces for about $60 or something to that effect. That's what I'm rolling with and it's mixed bud but you don't really get like huge pieces of bud. You get these nuggets and I like that. I don't know I might take a walk on the wild side and buy some expensive stuff at some point but I wouldn't hold my own breath on it.

Luckily we grow enough to keep myself and my buddy and my brother-in-law, all of us, going. It only costs us about the equivalent of about 30 bucks a month, which is practically nothing. For gross supplies and nutrients and soil and all that, it averages out to about 30 bucks a month each. So it's very plausible. Practical, I should say. Practical, yeah. All right. Next up we're going to George, KB0MAI. It's all you, man. Hello, KB0MAI. Thank you very much, sir. Well, this discussion has basically been all about glasses and stuff like that. I never really had an ailing or an urge to try them out. But I'm sure a lot of people love them. I just prefer my nice, wide, long screen at the house. And it works. The glasses sound like, you know, if you wear glasses to wear the headshots sound like a painting. But for me, too. But, you know, it's like my glasses I wear on my computer. They're computer glasses designed for me to see everything on the screen. So I'm not looking up. I'm not looking down. It's a nice clear view all the way across. And far sighted, I'm great. Near sighted by so much. And so that's why I bought them. And I also get some special coating zones, a layer or anything like that. And that makes it look pretty good for me. But other than that, I really don't have much to say. Imagine that.

And that's why I'd really like to have one of those ones, because you plug it into whatever you're using it on. So if you're using a Mac, you just plug the Type-C into your Mac, and all of a sudden your display is not on your desk anymore. It's in the glasses, and it gives you a 201 inch equivalent display. That's what's cool about those. So you can plug it into your computer, you can plug it into a Steam Deck, you can plug it into your phone, whatever you want to use it with, and it just works. And if you use it with their particular app, you can actually set up three displays, two side-by-side or one on top or whatever way you want to work them out. You can set up a multiple screen environment, which is incredibly cool.

I've got to get the microphone down. I was eating some noodles for breakfast and my phone was closed and it's on a cord but the cord's not that long so it wouldn't look at my face sideways. Look at me sideways, will you? So I was trying to type in the code and then get over to the app there. Fun, fun, fun. But yeah, we have the MetaQuest 3 gaming platform here in the house and so I've got an opportunity to play that a few times and that's fun. I really like that. And again, I just don't play it enough to spend money on the inserts yet. If I was to start playing it more I'd probably buy the inserts. Right now I just end up wearing it over my glasses. What else? Yeah, my goggles for flying my drone. I've got the inserts for those and those are great. And then the NeoAir 3S. And I'm going to attempt to get more proactive with them and try them out a little bit more and see if I can't figure out what's going on with the pitch or not. But like I said, watching a video or something like that, it works. It's not real great but it works. So definitely something. And sorry, I'm just going through trying to figure out everything that I need to make sure that I don't forget to bring on the truck and what I want to bring on the truck. I'm trying to decide whether or not I want to bring my headset under the truck. It doesn't help that I'm in a loaner truck right now so I'm trying to keep things down to a minimum. I think I'm going to leave my drone here this go around. My current student had two other mentors so I'll probably only keep her for about two weeks and then come back, get another student and then keep that one for three weeks and that will get me home.

There's just so many different things out there today that if you don't mind putting money into it, you can play around with. There's a lot of really cool tech. I'd love to try flying a drone with the headset on. My big problem with flying a drone is once it gets so far away, I can't see it anymore. And once I can't see it anymore, what direction is pointed? You know, because there's different color LEDs on the front and the back, but I can't see that once it gets so far away. And if I could just look as if I was flying out the eyeballs of it, I'm assuming that would be a lot of fun. Because you don't need to see the drone that way. I mean, I can see perfectly clear through a VR headset or something like that to tell where I'm going and when I want to turn around. I can see what's in front of me and what's below me and stuff. So that I think I would be able to do without too much trouble. Because I mean, I do know how to fly a drone. I know about yaw and pitch and roll and all these kind of things that you can set to keep the drone in position. Although a lot of the newer ones now do all that stuff automatically. I've got a cheap one there that my brother-in-law gave me. And I can fly it around the house, no trouble at all. My cats absolutely despise the thing. But it's just one of these, I think he might have paid a hundred bucks for it like two or three, three or four years ago. Yeah, it was more around 2020, 2021. And it's in a little case. It's got a controller. You can snap your phone into it. It's got cameras. They're crappy cameras, crappiest cameras I've ever seen. But it's got two of them. And you can switch. You can switch it to looking out the bottom of the drone or out the front of the drone. But I haven't been able to get the app to work very well. It's kind of janky. But when I'm in my house with it, I don't even need my phone. I just use the controller and I can fly it around and hover it in my living room. And it's got the altitude on it. So when you let go of the controller, it doesn't just fly off and go off into the abyss. It'll kind of stay where it's to unless it's windy. I tried flying it in the front yard already. I almost lost it over the top of the house. So I'm not good with them outside. But this, it's only small. It's like, I think they said it's like the size of a DJI Mini. You know, it's a, you fold the arms out. The arms have the props on them and it folds up like they all fold inward. And then you put it in the case. But when you want to use it, you just fold out the arms. It gave me a couple months back and I don't want to because if I break it, you can have it many times. I haven't flown it in like three years. So you smash it up, it's no big deal. But I haven't, surprisingly enough. And it only has one battery. So I only get like 10 minutes of fly time. So I've maybe flown it like 10 times or something just here in the living room. I'll sit in the chair and I'll put it in the middle of the living room and I'll, you know, take off with it. And I'll fly it back and forth to living room and up and down the hallway and everything. I'll fire it up. It makes this like really ghastly noise. Cats are scared shitless of us. They really are. They're terrified, all of them. Dewey goes over and he'll give it a sniff while it's on the floor before I fire it up. But, you know, it's not great. It's a toy-grade drone at best. But I did look. It's called an M88. An M88 Pro. So if you want to look that up on YouTube, you can go ahead. As a matter of fact, Bill, I'd be curious to see if you looked it up. Does it look like a DJI Mini or what do you think by comparison? It's called an M88 Pro drone. And it's just a small little thing. But it's fun. It's fun indoors. I'm useless at flying it outside because I can't see the direction that it's pointed in. When I'm inside and it's close enough to me, it's got like white LEDs in the front like two headlights. And it's got blue LEDs in the back. So as long as you keep the blue LEDs in view, you're technically behind it. So it's easy. Or you can fly it in something called headless mode. And in that case, it doesn't matter which way it's pointed. If you pull the stick back, it comes back. You push it forward or up and down, it goes forward or up and down or left or right. And it doesn't matter which way it's pointed. But I haven't been able to get that to work properly. But yeah, it's okay. You know, the battery, the controller, the drone itself is rechargeable. You just plug a cable into the battery. And the controller, you put like three double A's in it. And you know, it's good to go. It's fun enough. But same thing. When my brother-in-law was flying it, he almost lost it a couple times. We got it stuck in a tree. And so he said, you know, he might play around with it, at least in the house. And I have been. That's why I know I can fly one. It's just not very well outside when the wind takes it and stuff. And it starts moving around and you don't know what it's doing anymore.

But it would be nice to have the DJI drone again. It is fun and I have a lot more flexibility in my time. So as you know now I may end up picking up another one and getting VR with it is motivating. I also have one set of the Oculus version 1, two sets of the Oculus version 2. I had to have them one year a couple of years ago for Christmas and that's what they got. The novelty wears off awful quick on those for everybody in my family. I get dizzy and get headaches if I wear those things more than 5-10 minutes and I do wear glasses so that doesn't help. I do have the spacers, that does help. Not as much as one would think, it still hurts my head. I haven't tried the virtual office because it's doing things so heavy. It's so heavy it sits on a face. It's a little bit of the Oculus. This cool idea, I think they need to shrink down all the components and make it so it's not as heavy, not as bulky and make it a little more user friendly. That's just my thought. Anyhow, that's probably long enough for an over. I thought I would just give you my experiences.

I'm sitting here playing Tetris Willow. You can hear she's barking in the background because I'm not throwing the ball for her. She is a nagging dog. You hear her? She's nagging. She nags the rest of my wife ever has. No, I don't want to throw the ball. I don't want to throw the ball. Alright, I'll throw the ball. That's why she nags, so she knows she gets away. You can tell I don't have a very busy morning this morning yet. Not yet. I answered some emails from work. I've been promising my wife to put the ribbon on her chicken coop. Now that the ribbon is finally getting much more agreeable, that's what I was looking at out here. I'll ask you last minute things. I wanted to build a more automated water and feeder system for her. So I'll probably work on that over the next couple of days. I want to change the perches. And then, oh, I need to finish the roof. Right now it's just OSB. Of course we haven't had much weather here, so it's been fine. But winter is coming, as the Starks like to say. And I need to get a better roof for them. They deserve to have a better roof. One that's not leaky. And so I need to get some shingles and some tar paper. It's not very big. It's, gosh, maybe 24 inches by 48 inches. 2 foot by 4. I mean, I was closer to 3 foot by 4. Anyhow, it's not going to be that hard to do. And it's not off the ground, which is good because another thing that bothers me with my progressive lenses are the newfound fear of heights. It's odd. 45 years old, I've got these progressives about a year ago. A little more than a year ago now. And up until I got these glasses, I've never been scared of heights. Ever. Shoot, I've jumped out of airplanes, repaired all the helicopters, repaired down cliffs and buildings. I mean, I've done some really cool stuff in my day. Not a bit scared of heights. Man, I get up on a ladder more than 2 or 3 feet with these glasses on and everything goes wonky. Anybody else deal with that? Is that something that has changed for anybody else? Like to the extent that I'm not even putting up my Christmas licenses. If I can get my boys to do it, it ain't happening. I need to take my antenna down and I've got to wait and get one of my boys to help me so I can climb up and unconnect it from the house. I want to take it down and change the antenna and do some work to it. So that's always an issue with my glasses. I've had a DJI Mini 2. I had it for a few years, a couple of years, 2 or 3 years. It was a lot of fun. I enjoyed it. I ended up selling it just because I was so busy and I sold my cancer for the same damn reason. At the time I was working so much I just never got to use them. To me I have an issue with things sitting around collecting dust. I'm not going to use it. Let's sell it.

First, hanging Christmas lights. Don't do it. Get something called Star Shine, I think they're called. They're projector, laser projectors that project colorful lights all over your house. Depending on how big your house is, you may only need one. In the front, you run a cable out to it. They're all weather. They turn themselves on when it's dark and they turn themselves off when it's light. They're spectacular. You'll never get Christmas lights as good as these. That's the first thing. The second thing, if you're worried about heights and you wear progressive lenses, that's something they warn you about. The first time I got progressive lenses, I got them at Costco and they stopped me. I put them on, I said, oh, these work great. They said, okay, walk around the store first. Get used to them. The only time I ever had an initial problem with them was going to an escalator or down the stairs. I was like, oh, this is weird, but I got used to it. Second thing, this is a link to the Meta Ray-Ban display and that looks pretty cool because they have sound. They've got no battery pack. They only put the display on one eye and you can get the prescriptions. They come in a prescription and the screen's in it. So that's pretty cool. That's pretty cool. That may be what I am looking for. Let's see, what else did I want to talk about? I didn't write it down. That's what happens. You don't write stuff down and then you're empty. All of a sudden you're empty on the air. So I'll pass it back to you. V01 UKC, this is KC2 PKG. You have a Ray-Ban display, man. I need new glasses this year anyway. So maybe I'm getting two pairs.

I'm just waiting for the never-ending battery. Like even a month's worth of charge would be really good, would be really badass. Just to kind of know that I can just walk away for the longest time and then just use my phone wherever, anyplace, that place. And we've come a long way with batteries. So it's not even like selling it short. Although we think of ways to absolutely overuse its life expectancy. So we always think of ways to do that.

I thought it was better than Little Dreams. Just a little tiny one. It was bigger than my hand. And got him a couple of batteries and stuff like that. It wasn't fancy, but it was pretty well put together. And he got that and he was all excited about it. But you know, since that day, I just realized that I've never heard him talk about it. His mother doesn't talk about it. I didn't hear it in his house. So I'm going to have to ask somebody about that. Mom says she was afraid that if he flew it around the house, he would hit the TV. Maybe that's why it's thoroughbred out. He was flying outside too. He was driving. He was using grandpa Bill. He had a remote, what do you call it? DGI or something like that. And my grandson was flying them and he broke both of them. Slammed them pretty good on the ground. That's what you get at five years old. It was a lot of death and destruction. Another remote can be one of the drones. So I thought this one was only like $75 or something like that. As long as it's not being thrown around my house or my TV, I'm okay with it. So I have to ask her about it. It was a progressive thing. I've been using progressives ever since I started wearing glasses and I've never had a problem with them. Now my wife, she had the line glasses the longest time and finally I got her to go over to progressive and it took her a while to really get used to them. It was a good six months of continuous wearing from the time she gets out of bed until the time she goes back to bed. But now she wouldn't go back to the other ones. I love the progressives. Like I said before, if you're doing a lot of computer screen time, you might want to get yourself a pair of computer glasses. Very expensive. I mean, I paid like $350 for mine and they are set up so nicely. They last a long time. I mean, I've had mine for about three years now. And probably this year I'll get a new pair. My eyesight hasn't changed that much. But as for height, I'm the opposite. I used to be the four hour glasses man. I didn't like going up high and stuff like that. But when I put the glasses on, I don't know, maybe I feel more invincible now. It's kind of the opposite of Superman. He takes his glasses off and he turns into Superman. But me, I put my glasses on and I turn into Superman when it comes to heights. I can't explain it, but that's the way it is for me.

I don't often use a headset on Echo Link, but I do like it because it keeps the mic at exactly the right spot. Well, once you put it at exactly, this one has like a flexible boom mic that you can retract into the headset, and it just disappears. You can't even tell it has a mic on it, but then once you put your finger on it and you can pull it out, it's retractable, which is very cool. I like it. I hate the fact that the thing is white.

So I was trying to deal with that as well. So I did look, yeah, the drone looks very similar to the DJI Neo or DJI, excuse me, but the Pro 3 or the smaller ones, the ones fold out. I think a lot of the differences may be in the obstacle avoidance sensors that are on the DJI and then the camera that is a different kind of tilt system to it. So it goes left, right, up, down. And then probably the controller, well, so they did have both kinds. They have the kind where you hook your phone to it and they have the kind that have the screen built into it and I ended up getting the one with the screen built into the controller. And of course if I want to fly it using the headset then I got to use the other controller for that. What else was there? Oh, and the joystick controller. I can't forget the joystick controller. Those are fun. And yeah, when you put the headset on and fly it around that is another experience entirely than flying it with the controller because it makes you feel like you're in the cockpit flying around. And you get too crazy and you can really mess with your mind. But yeah, definitely a lot easier to figure out where the drone is and where you need to go when you're flying it with a headset or when you can see through the camera because you can turn it around and spot the landmarks and know where you need to go. And on the controller and I think in the headset it will also give you an H, a little screen or a little square at the bottom with a little bit of a map and an H. And the drone is a little like a pointer and you can rotate the drone until you see the H and then fly it back. Grab a second."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-10-21T06:55:57+00:00","id":65692,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":65691,"text":" But the controller or the drone also has a return to home so you can just push and hold this one button and the controller will turn around and come back to its starting point. Although the new ones also have a update version of that where you know because if you're out cycling or something like that and having it follow you the last thing you want it to do is when the battery gets low to return to home where you started your bike ride and you may be a mile up the road so it's got a newer return to home where you can set it up and it will use your controller as the home point so when the battery goes dead or if your not goes dead but gets low or you push the return to home it will return to where you're actually located rather than going back to where you started. So if you're doing like active tracking you're riding your bike around or riding your scooter around that helps that out. But yeah there you go and like I said the big difference is probably all the electronics inside and all the different sensors and stuff because you put in all those extra sensors and better camera and better arm rotating arm for any video and stuff that definitely increases the price of the drone plus all the other programming and electronics in it GPS tracking and everything else but there you go.

It's just basically a toy level drone. You've got to fly it. If you do let go of the controls though, it will stay where it's put. If the pitch and everything is set correctly, your trim, that's what I'm trying to tell it, trim. Like if it's leaning one way to the left when you let off the sticks, if it's like tends to go one way or another, you can correct that so it like with the trim buttons so it'll stay like perfectly level where you let go of the controls too. But now that doesn't work outside when the wind starts pushing it and stuff. But indoors, that's how I've been flying this thing. Like I said, I did take it outside once and almost lost it over the house. It does have auto land and return to home. Like it'll come back and land where you took it off from. That doesn't work 100% well either. You need to have like a square when you take it off from the grass. Like what I did was I put it on a book and laid it on the lawn and it came back and landed on the book. But that didn't work every time. Like it would land like just to the left or the right of the book and then as it was landing it would get the propellers tangled up in the grass.

I thought that was pretty cool. I don't know if they make elbow and stuff. I know they make straight pipe. So maybe that's why. Anyhow, yeah, took a real quick trip here to the hardware store. I had to go back and get back to my normal job for a few hours. I am going to work on the chicken coop a little bit. I have been sharpening knives. I don't know if I can do that. It's kind of sharpened on my knives and I hadn't done it, gosh, way too long to be honest. I try to do it every couple of months and I bet it's been well over a year this time because, you know, I'm lazy. So, I did it the old fashioned way. I got 4 Redstones and I did it the old fashioned way. I don't know, there's something calming about it. So, yeah, those are my projects. Work, chicken coop, and probably sharpening knives. Me and my wife are still working on the last couple of sheets for the dog beds. We had a 3 inch memory foam pad that we just didn't like. And then it dawned on us, hey, we could cut this sucker down and make dog beds out of them. Not that they don't already have dog beds, but they're nowhere as nice as the 3 inch memory foam. So, yeah, we're sewing some basic fitted sheets for them right now. I'm not much of a sewer, but it is my request and my wife told me I had to help her with it. So, that's what we're doing and I can sew a little bit. I grew up sewing with my grandmother. So, I'm not bad. I'm not advanced by no means. I can run a straight stretch. How's that?

He's no reason to send troops into Portland. There's nothing going on there, man. The only protest is like several, a couple dozen people outside of that ICE facility protesting. And that's it. So I can't understand why he's still so dead set. Probably because someone told him he couldn't. And that's why he's still so dead set. I don't know if you heard about the meeting with Zelensky. Apparently, Trump told him off in high style. Like a sailor and when the cameras were off, he jumped up and he got in his face and apparently people were worried it was going to come to blows there for a while. And Zelensky basically told him what he thought of him. He thinks he's an idiot and how, and he got together with all the other world leaders after that meeting. Canada, Britain, the European Union, a whole bunch more and they're all on his side. And they said, he said, we can't trust the states. He actually called Trump a Russian bootlicker. I would have loved to have been on that call. And as well, the new ballroom that Trump said, well, it's going to be near the White House, but not touching it. And it's not going to affect the original building. Well, here's a giant chunk torn out of the White House right now. Absolutely demolished a whole wall or a whole section of the White House. I saw pictures yesterday. So that's not what he said. But anybody that thinks Trump's going to tell the truth at this point, I don't know. It's a level of delusion I still can't understand because the man lies about absolutely everything. And what was the other thing? Oh, apparently they're at war officially now with Moderna and Venezuela. Colombia is now pissed at the United States because a Colombian fishing boat was sank. And they were very clear that it was a fishing boat and not a drug boat. It was family owned apparently. And so apparently the Colombian president is now very pissed off with the United States as well. And things are not going well, man. He had some really high ranking military officials that have resigned. The one that's down by Venezuela, as a matter of fact, he said no more. He's gone as of December. Things are really not going well for the orange menace these days. And quite frankly, it's sad. It really is. It's a sad state of affairs to even look at the man lately. It really is.

So I don't think anyone would really know the difference, man, if you had a bigger battery or prop cards on. So I think you'd be fine with that drone. I did a little bit of research. The one I have is way under that weight. I think it's 200 and something or whatever. I can't remember what it was.

And, you know, normally you would think that if you're down that far, you know, you would think that you wouldn't be able to score because they were down like 32 to something. You know, I don't even know what the score was. But when they won, they won by one point. They came back and won by one point. And I'm just like, oh my God, it was amazing. So and I learned it all by Alexa, but she was giving me like play by plays and stuff, telling me what was going on in the game. And then at the end, she told me what happened. And I'm like, what? So I've literally started forwarding my recording and I'm getting pretty close to the last five minutes. And I'm literally going to watch the last five minutes.

We got there and started to sprinkle about 5 o'clock, and the powers that be, his sweetheart Sarah said, this isn't going to work out here in the rain. So the business that Zachary started with some help called Channel Marker Hard Cider, they're not open on Tuesdays at their tasting room and their establishment on 15th, just down from Market Street. So the whole party switched to that. And well, it was a lot of fun. We watched the baseball game, and when we lost in the ninth inning, we switched over to the football game and watched the Seahawks. Well, when we went home about 8 o'clock, it was 14 to nothing. So that was fun. But I just want to special thanks to our ham radio community in general. Through a lot of work with old VHS tapes and some technology, we were able to put together, with help from some of our ham friends, an hour's worth of little vignettes of my son, approximately from age 2 1-2 years old all the way up to recently. So it brought tears to both Don and I as we watched it for the first time, end to end. And it'll be a great addition when we have our party tonight for just family members.

I copied all your copy. Henry, come back with your call sign and report please. N7JDJ just buried you now. Henry in Silverdale, Washington. Yes, I checked in this morning for a little bit of therapy. I just needed to come down a little bit. So I got a new Timmy toy at Ham Fest from Cammie and Robert. I love it. It's a Tynicy 7600. I'm going through all the settings and trying to get everything adjusted just right. And the one thing I didn't do was hook it up to my linear. And I got the cable for that. I could have built one I suppose, but in my old age I've become more of an appliance operator. So I sent away for one. It came in last night. But of course the Mariners and the Seahawks are playing. And that is a true juxtaposition of feelings between the two games. But then I woke up very early this morning and I started playing in the Ham Shack. And I was like, hey, let's hook up the other one, other radio. So I broke out a two position switch to go between the two radios to feed the linear, to feed the tuner out to the antenna. And I rerouted all the cables and reconnected everything. And I had it dead short and I couldn't figure it out. I brought out my antenna analyzer to see if the path was good, everything was good. But what I did do, didn't do was use my \u2013 I had the drawing of my cabling behind all the magic. And I thought I could do it from root memory. And I'm here to say, no I cannot. So it took about rearranging the shack and crawling behind there. And isn't it amazing no matter how much lower the cabling is, you see what that one port is that you're plugging into. So I had to break out a mirror and flashlights and yeah, well, there you go. But I had everything set to a point. I did radio checks on my nets on HF on both radios. And both radios both feed the amplifier down. So life is good. And my station managers are probably telling me they want to go take a walk. So thank you for listening to me.

And so, everyone is welcome. This is going to be at Gasworks Park on the east side of the park in a covered area.

This is going to be on space station at 1.30 p.m. It's going to be a Zoom meeting. The link is on our website, PSRG.org. That's PSRG.org for all the information about our group and our six repeater receiver system, six receiver repeater system, I should say. Anyway, this event is going to be presented by Mike Thomas and How to Work Ham Radio Satellites Using Modest Equipment. With an emphasis on operating the access to their onboard repeater, a PRS Stitchpeter, and speaking with crew members will be covered along with satellite operating fundamentals and, of course, what kind of equipment to use. So, KI-HS on the Zoom meeting. Again, the link is on our page, PSRG.org. Let's see. What else is coming up?

Some of them are not used very often and we're coordinating with all the different repeater groups in the area to get them to come in on this event and basically it's to see how many repeaters you can use from your home QTH. You get out there in the wild a little bit and see what other repeaters you can catch besides the very local ones here right in Seattle. So the repeater roundabout event is coming up. I don't have the date in front of me, but that's coming up in November pretty soon. So be ready for that.

Got a laugh. We had that little bit of a windstorm the other day. After blowing off the top of the roof and getting all the pine needles and stuff on there, I was picking up some stuff yesterday afternoon and I looked up on top of there. It looked like I didn't do a thing. So yeah, pine needles. Don't you love them? I got pines all around the neighborhood. The whole backside of my property up here has got them and stuff too. So when the wind blows, they come this way. At least the pine needles will go down the gutter a little bit better than the limbs. So we don't have any of them anymore in there. Took care of that. Just getting ready to do a little job out on my car. Redoing a line for a, what do you call it, dash cam and stuff. Always wanted to put one in there. Had one laying around. I go, I'll put that turkey in there. So I got that all set up. And lo and behold, can't make it work because I need a SD card. So ordered an SD card. And of course, Amazon was down yesterday. It was supposed to be delivered yesterday. So hopefully it'll come in sometime today. Program that up and then we'll be all set. Gorgeous day. I'm tempted. Big bikes all shut down for the winter. Got it all with the battery tender on it. Set up with that and drain the gas. Got it all set up so the mice and rats and bugs and stuff don't get on her and stuff. So she's all cuddled up for the winter time. But the 250, yeah, I've been playing with that off and on. I go down and get my mail that way. And it's a nice little cheap thing for putzing around on and stuff. So that's about it for me right now. So everybody have a good day. Better tomorrow. Be safe out there, folks. W7TNG sent it to you.

The other thing is my Radio Shack actually has radios in it now and they're connected to antennas. I was up till three o'clock this morning playing around with that. I wasn't having any luck with the Wires X but then again I was also talking to the prospects on a BaoFang radio that I don't know if it was set up properly. I don't have the right station in it. I think it had the right PL tone but I'm not sure exactly so I already got the Wires X stuff programmed into this little HD so I'm gonna I'm gonna use that. I also took a look at the the voterscope last night on this repeater and I'm hitting Cougar Mountain good and hard good and strong. From home the problem is I'm not doing it very well but in my shack I am receiving it well enough to to participate while I'm at home which is a good thing because the radio that is in the in the living room I I I can't even bother so anyway good news there good news in the shack and now for now that's that's about all I got. Oh Critter Report nothing's changed they're so cute they're adorable. I didn't close my door all the way last night and in the middle of the night they decided to get into my room and while I had three of them wrestling on the bed that did not wake me up the one that decided that my nose needed to be kissed and it was licking my nose woke me up and startled the heck out of me.

It's nice to be able to use that for my PC or my cell phones, depending on where I'm at, and it's really nice. So, you know, internet radio is not cheating by any means, but today I'm just having fun with my old shed.

I need to work a little more on my organization because somehow when I was flipping between pages I lost the Facebook page. But it was in there somewhere, but oh well. Anyway, I woke up early this morning. I was up last night until I think 1 o'clock doing some China work. Then I got tired so I went to sleep. Then I got up at 6 before 6. I got an early start and went to my storage unit and put a bunch of wood in my storage unit to season. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Wood's got to season before I can cut it up and burn it. So anyway, that's what's going on with me on that. And now I'm doing some more China work. And I need to get outside because it is so beautiful, a tremendously beautiful day.

And the good news is I've got lots of other wood already ready from last year, from earlier this year. It's all cut and dried and ready to go. So that will really be good. And I figure that's enough wood that fills my key of soul about two-thirds full. And that's probably enough for three weeks, three weeks of heating my friend's van. G7CEI. Oh, all right. Well, I know she'll really appreciate that. I know Luke and his partner really appreciate you coming by and picking that up. It's great to see it. Of course, it will go into a recycling, or not a recycling, but a composting type place, Cedar Grove or something similar here in the area. But it's really great to know that your friend could use that almost immediately once it's cured or seasoned. Anyway, thank you very much, Tim. Great to hear you.

Do you have, and if you were, it looks like there's a ding dong, having a guy from Texas tell me who won, but do you happen to know?"},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-10-21T12:54:32+00:00","id":65989,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":65988,"text":" No sir, I'm sorry I do not know. I've watched the Texas occasionally. Sometimes I watch the Cowboys. I'm kind of like here in East Texas, I'm about the same distance from, but I grew up in the Dallas area so I spend more time rooting for the Cowboys. I don't know, they've been kind of hopeless last few years. But last night I got to bed early. I was on the Earth Friendship Net over on the ALARA server. And I just want to say they're on their twice a day, 11 o'clock central, 7 o'clock central on the ALARA server. And if anybody is within earshot, please stop by and we have a lot of fun and chat about this evening that comes to our heads. So last night, nope, I was listening to an audiobook and fell asleep. Sorry about that. KFIU CO back to net control."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-10-21T12:55:21+00:00","id":65990,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":65989,"text":" All right, Rick. Well, we hope we will hold it against you. That's okay. Yeah, I think sometimes falling asleep to an old-time radio show or an audiobook or just a local station or something on the internet, I like doing that because it puts me right to sleep. Anyway, and I did that last night. It was just fine. The night before, with the Amazon Web Services out, man, I couldn't even get my Echo device to program in an alarm for a special wake-up time. But that's all been resolved for the most part, so that's good. But anyway, all right, well, hey, you know, Rick, next time we hear from your KF5UCO and if I happen to be right, Really think about the Yankees, okay? So think about that. No, I think he knows. W8PLV, let's go talk to David. How are you?"},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-10-21T12:56:11+00:00","id":65991,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":65990,"text":" Hey Jack, good to hear your voice again. It's been a long time since we last spoke. Anyways, I got all excited. I was in the middle of work and I kept staring at the antenna that you loaned me. And I'm like, nah, let's put work on hold for a couple minutes. And wired up K9JB's J-poll. And it's leaning against my window right now, so I don't know how I'm coming across. That's why I thought I'd check in and just get an initial read. My intention is to create a little chart and do some A-B comparisons at different power settings with my older antenna. And I have lots of hope for this one. Anyways, back to you Jack. And hello to everybody out there. I hope everybody is having an absolutely wonderful day and enjoying the sunshine. W8PLZ, back to you Ned."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-10-21T12:57:06+00:00","id":65992,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":65991,"text":" Alright David, so you've got the K9JB, J-Pull, John J-Pull in place, just leaning up against the window. Yeah, you're just booming in. I had you at 243 on the Capital Park, Master had a 255 value on the Votascope, 219 on the Cougar Mountain receiver, and almost full scale on Lake Forest Park, which from Mercer Island you would imagine that would be the case. So yeah, you're doing just booming business. Now is that with the TID radio, the 5 watt handheld, or is that with the iCom 2340 I think you said is the model? Which radio is that? That was the iCom set at 5 watts. I do want to do the TID radio and I do want to do the iCom at 510 and 50 watts and just compare them all.
