And actually you're better off looking for it in the eastern sky on the next night on the 6th. It takes a while for it to move away from us. But by the 6th you should still be able to see it just fine. It's actually the second of three consecutive supermoons for 2025. And it's going to be about 221,818 miles. That's the closest of the full moons for this year. And the name, just for FYI, the name was given for the time of year. And that's basically when nocturnal beavers in the northeastern US and Canada start building winter dams under the full moon.

Or it could have been very early on when it was very geologically active and had a magnetic field that it could have just flipped its axis at one point. But it just seems that something's probably been flipped it over. It doesn't have a magnetic field, so therefore you can't say that because it flipped over its north pole it's necessarily pointing down.

It is suspected that dark matter probably has its version of light, and they're referring to it as dark light, has maybe dark photons, which are acting differently than photons that we perceive visually.

There's two things here. But I thought I'd add this as just some trivia for you. So I've made a very short and very truncated narrative on this for you. But I thought you might find it interesting. Expansion in our universe. Our universe is expanding. The expansion is actually accelerating, or an accelerated expansion. And the expansion universe, as I said, it's accelerating. And as the universe expands and gets bigger, dark energy combined with matter energy, our energy budget, is increasing. So billions of years from now, the cosmos will be expanding so fast that it could actually tear itself apart. And this is often referred to as a big rip. There's other versions of what may happen to the universe. But I thought I'd just include this one tonight. And a big rip can only happen if dark energy exerts just the right amount of negative pressure on space time relative to its density. So it's not certain right now whether dark energy can actually do that or not. The universe right now, out beyond or right at the observable horizon, it's about 40, maybe around 42.5 zillion light years out, is probably speeding along at and most likely past the speed of light.

This is where there's an incredibly fast period of time in which the universe was expanding and it slowed down to a more reasonable rate which we're seeing around us now. But our universe had ballooned at an exponential rate soon after coming into existence. And at the earliest moments after the Big Bang, the fundamental forces started operating in the universe when a strong force came into existence. It started out to change in the energy underlying the fabric of space. And this may have caused space to repulse ever so slightly against itself. And it then expanded exponentially before the energy settled into a state. Fractions and fractions affected just after the Big Bang. After that, expansion happened at what we perceive, as I said just earlier, as a more normal rate. No one knows why the vacuum of space acquired the exact value of energy that it did. Inflation may have occurred at different rates elsewhere in the universe beyond our visible horizon. So let's hope above all the universes may have popped into existence from the initial inflationary period.

The resulting signature from the gravitational waves matched up with the theories of Einstein and Roy Kerr, which concerned rotating black holes. Roy Kerr, he was a mathematician. He came up with what's called the Kerr solution. And it's an exact solution to Einstein's field equation of general relativity. And that basically describes space time around rotating uncharged black holes. Most black holes are expected to be at nearly neutral charge.

And simulations performed by the European Space Agency have revealed that should another event like that happen, the effects would be much more damaging because of our dependence on technology. The hypothetical scenario used a solar flare five times more powerful than anything this current solar cycle has produced. The eruption would shower Earth with an intense wave of radiation with no warning. Fifteen hours later, another wave of radiation and a gigantic cloud of plasma, or CME, would strike the Earth at 4.4 million miles per hour, 7.1 million kilometers per hour, setting off the Carrington-like event.

The swelling will cause additional unwanted drag on satellites. I think it will be up to a 400% increase on the drag, pulling a lot of them back to Earth.

And then he's laying on that right now, which is something he's never done before. He wants to be by me for some reason, so that's kind of neat. He must be about maybe 11 or 12 years old, I think. And he was found in the middle of the road. Hence, his name is Roadie. And everybody else is doing good. Just go tomorrow to going to church and then going out to eat after. That's always fun. We usually have about 10 of us, 8 to 10 of us that goes out to eat afterward. And let's see what else is going on. We had the guys come to the cocaine company yesterday and they put in new tanks for us and did all the piping for the generator, which is sitting on its pad. Looks like a launch pad, actually. The generator looks like it's going to be ready to launch right out. And so anyway, then a week from Tuesday, the generator people are going to come out and do the electrical work and get everything done that day and hook it up to the propane and then do a test of it and we'll see how it goes. So in about two weeks, I would say that we will be ready for any weather and for losing electricity. And I keep saying now that we have the generator, maybe nothing will happen, which would be wonderful. So yeah, we'll see what happens. And it's a good insurance policy to have, that's for sure in Florida. Let me take a short break here. And please don't say you have a boring life. You certainly do not. Being a writer and doing your music and I miss doing my music very much, especially now talking about playing Christmas carols. I wish I could do that. I really miss playing the sax at this time of year. And so I'm glad you can still play your sax and have a lot of fun doing it. Anyways, I'll be back to you, 73-88. And I know you won't forget, if you haven't already, to turn your box back. You probably have it all done already. Take care. Love all you guys.

Hey, good evening, Jack and everybody on the net. And congratulations to the Dodgers. Jack said it was 11 innings or so. That seems pretty hard to font. So good for them. Yeah, Liz and I were just watching this monster movie called Cloverfield. A monster attacks Manhattan. And these people are trying to find this other guy's girlfriend in Soho. I don't know. It wasn't the greatest monster movie. We were a bit disappointed. A lot of people died trying to find that guy's girlfriend. That's all I can say. So that's kind of frustrating. But that's a monster movie for you, right? Personally, I like the Godzilla movies better. They always turn out more interesting anyway. I've just been today I spent working on my slides for the Seattle GNU Linux conference next Friday and Saturday. I'll be speaking about it's an introduction to network programming. So I'm getting ready for that. And yeah, I look forward to hearing about John's PRS hollow body guitar. That sounds really cool. Sounds like you're getting some new toys. I've never tried the piezo pickups. I've heard good things. I'm probably not going to be buying another guitar anytime soon. But I still shop around. And I really like PRS guitars. They are really nice. I don't think I could ever buy a Les Paul, but a PRS. That seems more my speed. And I really enjoy the detail of the craftsmanship they really put into those guitars. They're really just gorgeous. So anyway, I think that's all I got for this evening. I just wanted to make some noise on the electromagnetic spectrum. Take care, everybody. KK7, Fox Kilo Bravo. Back to Matt. Thanks, Jack. This is repeater station Kilo Kilo 7, November Quebec November. You are welcome, Treen. Nice to hear you. I have not heard of this movie you mentioned, Cloverfield. I've heard of Cloverfield 8 or 10 or something. And there's some other movie too I'm just seeing here. But it says here, the one you watched, they likened it to the American Godzilla. So that sounds kind of close, I guess. All right, well, hey, Treen, would you mind sending me a little blurb on the GNU conference coming up next Friday?

I hope Bill is doing well wherever he's at. Well a lot of good subjects tonight. Yeah so congratulations to the Dodgers. I didn't really have a horse in the race. I could think of good reasons for both teams to win. But both of those teams were formidable and it would have been nice if the Mariners had gotten in there. But anyway, the fact that we did hold our own against the Blue Jays in that last, in the American League series. It was a good season but hopefully we get further next year. So now we move forward to the Seahawks and tomorrow night they're playing the commanders on Sunday Night Football on NBC. Which is always a good production. They do a really good job on NBC with Mike Chirico and Chris Collinsworth and all the people involved with that. So I'll be looking forward to that. But yeah a lot of great guitar talk. I don't really know exactly what to add to it but you know another rabbit hole is effects pedals. I mean you can get guitars, you can get amps. But people don't always talk about those little pedals that people play through. And I mean there's all kinds of different like delay things that use, actually have tape. Like the old tape act. The old tape act because I've actually got a thing called an Echoplex. Which is a, it's got a three minute tape that feeds through it. So it feeds through every three minutes. And so you physically move the tape head further away from the record head. And that's how you adjust the number of delays and then you can have it kind of feed back into itself. And then there's a sound on sound thing where you can play for three minutes and then it starts playing it back. And so that's a very cool device. I think for John a website that I think he'd really like is all about David Gilmour from Pink Floyd's effects. And the site is called Gilmourish. Just Gilmour with I-S-H at the end. And it's just like David Gilmour plays through all kinds of different pedals. His main one, especially in the early days was something called the Benson Echo Rec. And what that was, was it was a rotating magnetic drum with four different playback heads that could either be turned on or off. And it was a very imperfect device. But it created this kind of spooky sound. And one of the people who really popularized that was Hank Marvin from the Shadows back around 1960, 1961. I think he really started Space Rock in a way. So anyway, I could go on and on about this. But anyway, great net.

Yeah, a million dollars for a guitar. I don't know what the record is, but I think Kirk Hammett from Metallica paid $2 million for Peter Green's Les Paul. Peter Green was one of the original guitar players for Fleetwood Mac. And he had been with John Mayall's Blues Breakers, and really almost an underrated guitar player.

Boston is a band of course. Tom Schulz had a lead in that and in fact had previously been working at Polaroid with a degree or a couple from MIT in engineering and developed his own effects pedals that affect a whole line of effects pedals called the Rockman line developed and marketed by Schulz research and development. Kind of an interesting thing if you really get into tinkering whether it's bikes or guitars or the electronic signals that go from the guitar to the amp or from the radio to the antenna etc keep tinkering check it out if you find something you like take it a little bit further share it with friends you never know what might happen. So I just thought I'd kind of circle back around on that guitars people who are big into it often then we'll explore tangential technologies and stuff like that so knowing that Tom Schulz developed his own effects pedals the Boston Tone which then was marketed by Rockman it's kind of a neat little tie-in effect together so I wanted to kind of share that before I head out and check out for the night so thanks again for everyone's contributions I am not as involved as I might like to be on a regular basis with the net but I always love to be involved when I can and to hear a whole bunch of different perspectives and enthusiasms and yes even for autumn as we shift this way so thanks again and I think that's going to be it for me k i7 r y w"},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-11-01T21:49:53+00:00","id":74261,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":74260,"text":" All right, well, thank you for coming by David.

I'm late tonight because I was watching game seven with my family. We got really into baseball all of us during the playoffs and it was pretty special for me. I'm a huge baseball fan my wife and girls kind of tolerate it and they really enjoy going to games with me they don't really enjoy watching it on TV that much with me and they got so into the playoffs so it's been fun and I was happy to see the Dodgers won I have my reasons for that I won't go into them because no one cares but anyway I'm just going to say good night baseball and we'll see you in the spring. It was a pretty cool year. I also wanted to touch on the effects pedal discussion which sounds like it was pretty cool. Dean I heard your check in about the Echoplex and I just have to say Dean if you ever are interested in selling your Echoplex please reach out. I am a big fan of delay and echo effects in general and I've always wanted to own an Echoplex and they're always overpriced and always in poor repair. It would be interesting if you ever want to sell that to meet someone that could give a true valuation of what they have. Anyway I love guitar effects and stomp boxes as they're affectionately called. I have built some of my own. I have modified many. It's just as a guitar player it is so inspiring how a new effect can create a brand new sound that can then create so many new songs which I think is a lover of music is just the coolest thing. So anyway glad to hear folks talking about that stuff. Let's see what else. I got a new shelf sort of thingy for the shack here. I'm going to put the radios on that to make things more ergonomic and so I'm going to be dueling for the rest of the evening and I made a mushroom and spinach soup for dinner. It was great.

Blown up some leaves with the blower, did that, and then, yeah, because we got a bunch of, you know, all of our driveway and everything, and the sidewalks got that. Watched the World Series, that was pretty good. I was kind of rooting for the Blue Jays. I'm kind of a, I'm the kind of guy that likes rooting for the underdog, you know. I don't think they're necessarily favored, but I don't know. But I was kind of hoping they'd pull it out. But, you know, it was still entertaining to watch, and like the previous gentleman said, it was like watching a high wire act without a net, you know, because you don't know what's going to happen next, and that was exciting. I like, you know, when a game is one-sided, it's not exciting, but this was exciting. So it rates right up there with some of the best games I've ever seen. So that was pretty good. I logged workout number 2,897 tonight. I started my eighth year yesterday. This is year number eight of when I walked into a gym, picked up the weight, and started working. And I was 58 years old.

Although at some point or another I almost thought that I had lost them again But turned out they actually heard me So I had a good time there managed to make contact give my report and that worked out. Okay I'm not sure what next month's treat will be in the way of electronic things, but I am looking At another antenna or an experiment. I am also looking at another device I can play with so we will see how those go When I first see how things are going to go that You know usual things happen, you know, you end up rearranging to do what you got to do Kj7 Xm saying hey all of you play it safe out there and I am turning it back to net.

Canine BC, Brooks here in Newcastle. A little surprised to hear you're on here Jack. It's nice to hear your voice doing a 9pm net. Yes, oh man, game seven of the World Series. We turned it on, I think in the second inning, and then we went out to dinner and they had it on at the restaurant and then we came back and finished watching it. But wow, yeah, that was a great game. Back and forth, bases loaded a couple times, forced outs at the plate, home runs to tie and to go ahead, and then the pitcher coming in to close the game. After pitching, he started game six, I think it was yesterday. Yeah, it was just all around good baseball. So, yeah, that was fun to watch. And I was rooting for the Dodgers. I didn't want to see Toronto win after they took the Mariners out. But anyway, yeah, so let's see. Had a good day today. We ended up taking everything out of the camp trailer and giving the inside a clean and wiping everything down. All the mattresses and the sleeping bags and all that stuff out. Getting it ready to be winterized. I was able to empty the water tank and get the antifreeze and the pump. And so tomorrow I'm going to give it a bath on the outside before putting the cover on it and we're going to button it up for the wintertime. So there's that. And then, what else I got? Oh, so I've got a trip that I'm going on on Monday for work. I go to training down in Texas. So I got to get ready for that. And outside of that, just kind of getting some stuff done here around the house. So the weather turned out a little bit nice this afternoon, which is why we decided to kind of work on the trailer today. Anyway, that is all I got for now. I'm going to say happy Saturday night everyone. 7-3.

I did not hear some information I've been waiting for and of course congratulations to the Dodgers Can't wait to hear what Jeff's got to say. He's up next we got Arthur coming up after Jeff, but Brooks real quick So I know you got the milling machine. I know he got it up on the stand. He looks into position I believe you got a plug in and I believe you have now turned it on make sure it's working So I think what is maybe on Brooks's short list for things to mill Around the place there, maybe something for the trailer perhaps back to you. Oh Good question there Jack, you know so the Getting the trailer ready and winterized was going to be a project for tomorrow, but we ended up doing it today because Megan is Having to go do some other stuff tomorrow So I did not get to play with the mill today like I had planned So current status there is I have turned it on and it does work. I got the milling vice in which is good And I need to go through and give the thing a whole mill a good wipe down It's still got a bunch of the oil on it from when it was in its shipping container, so once I get the table all cleaned off and The handles for the y-axis then I can get those attached I get them I can get the vice Put on then I have to go through the motor break-in process which is run at 10 minutes forward run at 10 minutes backwards and low speed and then Five minutes forward and five minutes backward and high speed and it'll be ready to do some cutting So to answer your question though, but a couple things that I have on my my list one is I have a tool holder actually for my lathe that is too tall and so I plan on putting that on on the mill and taking probably 100 thou or 200 thou off of that because that should be a pretty easy thing to do just basically make a block Thinner and then it should work just fine to hold my boring bars So that's one project that will probably be one of the first ones that I do For the trailer I do have a new Gosh, what do you call it like a new wheel the wheel that folds down for the front of the trailer? I've got a new one of those that's got two wheels and they're bigger and I'm gonna have to get it mounted and I'm not sure that the bolt hole pattern to line up Exactly, so this would be a great application of I'm working on a project and I might need to drill some holes in some very Specific locations so the digital readout on the mill should really come in handy for that But I don't know exactly what I need to do yet.

Can I and BBC back to that?"},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-11-01T22:07:48+00:00","id":74271,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":74270,"text":" All right, well enjoy the rest of the weekend have a great trip down to Texas and BBB Better Business Bureau.

And they had Yamamoto and pitched yesterday, pitched again today and did a great job and saved the game. The guy, he says, everybody seemed to be contributing to the game. Oh man, what a game. It would be a while before I watch it again because man, what a game. And I really thought the Blue Jays were going to take it. And all of a sudden they tied them up and away they went. And it was just back and forth. Man, what a game. So yeah, I was just kind of washed out here. I had a neighbor came over and was watching me. And they ended up taking off. We went into extra innings, I think, or at the very end there. He said that's enough for him. Anyway, what a game. So yeah, I'm glad I watched it. You know, I'm glad the Dodgers won. They deserve it. They earned it. It was just one of those, wow, what a year and what a game. Yeah, we had nice weather in the Bay Area. And it was 70 degrees here and sunny and not bad at all.

We had one trick or treat on Friday so which I figured between the terrible rain and the business district that's nearest to us holding their trick or treating that time at the same time that I didn't get a lot of trick or treaters and we didn't. So I even threw a couple of five dollar bills in the basket but the one kid who came either didn't see it or didn't feel, you know, felt awkward about taking it so I just thought it'd be funny. But yeah not a heck of a lot else to report. We had some tasty, actually a friend of ours, K7YM is his Buddhist temple that he's a member of today. They had their fall festival and they have for fundraising they have some pretty tasty food that you can sign up to get and we had that for lunch today so that was nice to have.

Oh that does sound good there. So I guess happy fall festival K7WEM. I'm glad you're getting some good food there. And I think that's funny you threw some like five dollar bills in the basket but like the kids were too nervous to take it. They probably thought it was a mistake or something. I guess the way that we've been handing out candy we kind of don't let the kids decide. Like we don't let kids just like rummage their hands through our candy bowl. We just grab a few of this usually something chocolate something non chocolate at least a couple of things whatever. I think towards the end of the night we were because there's like by the third doorbell we were just giving them handfuls. The little kid at the end we gave as she's like oh my gosh mommy like my little buckets like totally full now because we just like we just my wife back she just like dumped a bunch of candy in this little girl's little bowl. It's like a little pumpkin thing whatever. Anyway I think that's great the five dollar bills and people are just like too nervous to take it.

I just, I didn't, I went to work this morning and first I had to pick up my truck. It was in the shop and they said it was half fixed but I was able to use it. I hooked up to my trailer and my trailer had a nice flat. So I had to call and get somebody out there and they said it was going to take two to three hours for somebody to get out there to fix it. So I calculated my, with my mathematical ability and decided that even if they got it fixed in a decent amount of time I'd only have 1.50 hours to make nine deliveries in Des Moines, Iowa. And that wouldn't happen. I'd be lucky to get one or two drops off. At least one or two drops would only be a few thousand pounds. Service ticket is completed. Service of, HQ service ticket, blah, blah, blah. Time is 5.06. Boy, he fixed that tire really damn fast. Really fast. Hang on, I'm going to reset. So he did get there at 10 until 5 and he took off the tires on the trailer, replaced the one tire and put it all back together again in 18 minutes. That's fast. But still, it's 5 o'clock in the morning. So that would still only give me 1.50 hours after I got up there to make my deliveries. So anyways, I decided I'm kind of short. I'm not really too invested with the company as much as I used to be. So I came home. I text the box, I'm going to save you some money. I'm just going to not work today.

It wouldn't probably matter too much. But maybe it does. I don't know. I know one thing. I was on a Greyhound bus. We were at the border going through customs. And the bus driver shut his motor off on the bus. And when it was ready, it wouldn't start back up. He had the new buses. When they get to a certain point, they just don't run anymore. It's not like the old buses. Their catalytic converter backs up so much it just shuts the old motor off. That's about as far as the bus goes. But anyway, he called up a tow truck. The tow truck came there. And he had to take the tire off the bus, take a couple of tires off the bus. And then he had to remove something from the rear universal joint so he could tow the bus. He couldn't tow it without taking the tires off. All the oil came out of the axle, all over the place. What a mess, you know. It was just a big mess. The other bus came and brought us back to Montreal. But boy, it was like a two-hour bus ride turned into a five-hour bus ride. Yeah, that's something that, you know, they did it.

Yeah, I couldn't leave there. I had 30,000 pounds on, and that tire wouldn't have lasted halfway up to Des Moines. It would start shredding, and pieces would be going everywhere. And then maybe the recap would come off, which is also known as the alligator, and fly down the road, hit somebody's windshield. It was just not worth it. I just, like I said, since I just got it done now, I recalculated it. Still, it gave me roughly 1.5 hours to make all these deliveries before I'd have to turn around and come back down. So I think I called it pretty good. Yeah, yeah. Maybe instead of just getting paid for breakdown time, I should get a raise for special considerations of what the company needs are and not what my needs are. Because I could have gone. I could have left right now and got up there and made two deliveries and turned around and came back. And they would have probably not said a word to me about it.

And at that time, I already had 15 years with the company, and they made him the traffic coordinator. And then the boss there, her name was Kay. She was a nice lady, actually. I liked her quite a bit. She found out she was going to get canned because she didn't know what the hell she was doing, either. And she basically harassed the guy named, that was the traffic coordinator, and he finally quit. And the job became open, so I applied for it again. And she applied for it, too.

I can tell you this. I mean, that all the traffic warriors we've had, all of them have failed. All of them have gotten fired for the most part. And one of the things I was happy about, the part that I wasn't upset about, is always received lots and lots of overtime. I'm talking roughly $20,000 to $30,000 a year of overtime just because they didn't know what they were doing. Now, I do do the job, actually. So it's not one of these things where I wanted the job and I thought I could do the job, and so therefore I should get the job. I was approached by a corporate guy, and he asked, we have a lot of this other traffic coordinator that had a lot of downtime. And he asked if I would go in and train and become backup traffic coordinator. And I took it because I thought, OK, well, that means that if I do this and I prove myself when the job becomes available, they'll consider me a little bit more closer, right? So I did the backup traffic coordinator job for five years. I was told and evaluated that they wish they would have hired me in the first place, right? And then with traffic coordinators, I told you we had so much turnover. Well, with bosses, we had a lot of turnover, too. I've had 21 supervisors since I started with this company, all of them pretty much gone, right? And the last supervisor we had, he was there just before the old traffic coordinator was going to get fired. And he knew of my capabilities. However, I made a mistake there, Brian. I made a big mistake. He was a Christian. He kept saying, because he's a Christian, he has more integrity than anybody else here. And I kept telling him that integrity is not based off of a title, you're a Christian. But the actions you take to show if you really do have that integrity. And he did not like that very much. And not only did he replace me as a backup traffic coordinator, when the guy got fired, the traffic coordinator got fired, he took the most least qualified person who was a Christian and put him in that place. He had no experience of any kind at that job.

So, if I'm not talking about the Social Security, let's say I get $2,000 a month in Social Security, that's $24,000 a year. And that is completely, by federal standards, not taxed. And then depending on what state you're in, such as me and Missouri, they won't tax me in the state of Missouri, which is cool. I like that.

However, if I take out of my 401K, supplement my income, or if I go back to work part-time and earn just $10,000 more, then they are going to tax 50% of my Social Security on a federal level at 12%. However, if I go above that $44,000 by just a little bit, then they are going to tax me 85% of my Social Security at 12%. So, it really varies on what you do and who you have as a partner and what they make and how much you use the 401K.

That's because they're not even surviving off of what they're making and the government's still taking money out. I'd just like to see me personally an even tax across the board.

I'm going to be jumping out of an airplane again with some old friends of mine out of a vintage World War II plane that dropped guys into France on D-Day. And I had some plans on the way down. I was going to stop at Daytona, but that got pushed back because my connection's in Kansas. They sent him to Kansas instead of being in Daytona. So I don't get my stock car ride. And one of my friends I was going to visit had a family thing come up. And so I'm headed to a friend of mine's down in Fort Lauderdale. And I'll be down there tomorrow. And we're probably going to go to Key West on Wednesday and Thursday. And then Friday, it's up to Orlando. And do the prep stuff for the jump. And then Saturday, it's the jump. But I'm just like a little kid, except I get to drive to Christmas. And I'm just so it's a pleasant, pleasant feeling to know I'm going to jump again. So that's what's kicking here. I'm just coming into Scranton, Pennsylvania. I left early this morning. My son that lives close by had to go to the airport. He's flying to Atlanta today. And he had a 5 o'clock flight.

Yeah, it's me, W-E-2-A, Whiskey Echo 2 Alpha Canadian for us, W-E-2-A. But yeah, I've been looking at some of those new mobiles of the different flavors. And the big thing that gets me is that they each came up with their own proprietary digital mode. And up where I live, there's none of that. There's no digital modes, basically. It's all still analog. But I did find that one of the repeaters is finally hooked up to the Echo Link type stuff. And I've heard a couple of guys check in to what I thought was a local machine. And they were out in Michigan or down in the Carolinas or something, or out by New York City. And it's like, well, I'm clear up in upstate New York on the Canadian border. But I don't know which way I'm going to go with the FM at my place. I'm more of a weak signal guy. And I've got to put that. Let me reset. I've got to put a 30-foot tower up right behind the learnatorium to hold my VHF, UHF stuff. And it'll be some Roan 25G. I've got it laying around the house. But yeah, it's going to have all my VHF, UHF stuff on it. And our local club, where the club is located, because we actually have a clubhouse, we own property, it's kind of down in a hole. And not many people can hit the repeater. And so if I put a tower at each end of my garage and one taller than the other, I'll have the horizontal separation. And the big problem is the cavities, the cans. They put so much loss into it that you can hear the repeater, but people can't hear it because it uses a single antenna. Where if I can put it at my place and run separate transmit and receive antennas, I don't need any cans, and so any filters on it. So I've got to talk to the president and see what's going on there. And then they've got a 220 repeater that is all complete, but they can't use it. They don't have a place to put it up. And I'm going to see if I can buy it from them. And that way, I'd put the 2-meter and the 220 repeater in my garage and have a separate transmit and receive antenna on those things there. But that's next year. I can't even get to it this year.

I didn't own the Omni, but I owned a Jupiter, and I absolutely loved that radio. The only reason why I got rid of it was the fact that it was getting extremely old and a lot of stuff was kind of crapping out on it. And rather than fix it, I just kind of sold it to somebody that knew what the hell they were doing. But I wouldn't mind, what was that one called? I think it was called the Scout. It was a mobile, pretty much mobile unit. They had all kinds of good little radios. They had one where you had modules that you put in for 10, 20, 40, and 80 meters. I don't know if you remember that one or not. But the Jupiter was mine, and I liked it because it had a... I kept a built-in keyer and you'd use a keyboard to send the code instead of using the keyer. I used that a lot. I thought that was awesome. My hands would get really sore and stiff. And after a while, when I would send code, it would be hard to do. But with that keyboard built right into it, it really made it nicer. It was the best with that kind of stuff. Over to you, Pat.

Well and And that but yeah In 94 when I was down in Haiti I had a an army Mars radio that the Mars guy let me let me use and it was the Paragon the only difference between the Paragon and the Five or the Omni six Omni five and six and six plus the the difference was the Paragon had The receiver was a general coverage receiver and what made the Omni so good for contesting is it was hand band only so they could put better filtering in it and Right now I've got a an icon 7300 which is an awesome radio. I love it But the one of the pot and it's one of the things they corrected with the newer 7300 mark 2 is it it only has one Coax input and you can't run a separate receive antenna and if you want to do anything on on 80 and 160 you you almost have to have a receive antenna of some sort and and the Omni has got the the Omni six and six plus has got the receive only antenna and It that that's why I wanted but when I was in Haiti I Did the 1994 worldwide CQ worldwide phone contest and I had the only station operational in the country and so the whole world was looking for me because I was the only one and I was logging with a notepad and a pencil. I still got that log and There are ten different places in that log Where I was making Four to five contacts a minute and You can't do that with a poor receiver and the filtering on that thing is just yeah Oh, no, if trust me trust me George if that Omni six is Operational for 500 bucks You know, I I don't know what you're paying for that dual band radio But I know new I can't buy that 500 Dual band or for 500 bucks and you had to get that HF radio for 500 bucks It's a no-brainer.

I bought this one last year, another FT-70, because they're a damn good radio. And they're simple to use. I like simple. I love simple.

And I got a good deal on it, brought it home, got it on the air, and actually would receive. I'd never sent anything on it. And I only had my tech license at the time. I didn't have a General's. I still had to pass the code test, right? And decided to sell it. I put it on QRZ, and a guy emailed me saying he wanted to buy it. And I think I had a price tag. I was going to make money off the deal. I think I paid $100 for it, and I sold it for $250. And then I found out he was in Japan. And I said, I can't ship this to Japan because of the import duty tax and all this other crap is going to apply. And I have the damned if he says, you know what? That's no big deal. He says, just find out what it all cost and let me know. And so I went to the post office, I don't know what I had. And they told me what it was going to cost to send it. It was like $160 to get that thing sent to Japan and to pay the taxes at the time on it. And I emailed him back and told him. He says, no problem. And he sent me all the money right up front. And I mailed it off to him. I thought that was a very unusual deal, you know? The only other deal I ever made, I used to sell medium format film cameras. I'd buy them and resell them. And then I'd also buy developing equipment for black and white photography, enlargers and stuff like that. And I had this old fashioned enlarger. The guy says he wanted to buy it. I said, OK. He was in St. Louis. And this was a very heavy, very large enlarger. And he says, well, I'm going to come get it. And he says, meet me at the airport, Green Valley Airport. And at this time, I went up there. And he flew in on this plane. Some people got more money than they did. They know what to do with, that's for sure. Stopped, pulled in front of my car. We loaded up the enlarger. And he got back on the plane and flew back to St. Louis. I thought that was kind of unusual.

I'm glad you're listening. Keep it as honest. Kevin, VA3KKY, how was your weekend? What's going on with you today? This is KC2PKG, back to you VA3KKY. Well, I woke up a little bit later than I expected but it's early here so I can get away with it and I kind of started my work mid-ways and decided to come here and check in with you. So I hope you have a great Monday. I don't know. There's either a lot of chemically imbalanced or mentally imbalanced people in this world because how does one hour throw you off? It makes no difference to me whether it's gain or less. I mean people act like it's like six or twelve hours. That I could see maybe making a difference, right? But it's just numbers, right? I mean it's not going to affect your body. Most times I can't even sleep so an extra hour makes no difference, right? I mean if you're showing up to work keyed up or messed up, that's one thing, right? And you should be doing something about that. But I don't understand why there is such debate. We do this every year. It's like round robin. When we spring backwards, there's always a subject about it. When we go forward, there's also a subject about it. I never get it because it's no big deal. I mean people, they do it in the middle of the dead blame night. You act like it's being done in the middle of the day and let's say if it was. Okay so if you're at work and you're in the office or if you're at school, you stay on longer, you leave sooner. You stay on longer, you leave sooner. A lot of times in the blink of an eye, people don't even know that an hour has passed. I mean many times that happens to me, right? I might be lamping out listening to something on the phone, listening to a podcast or something and before you know it, oh an hour has passed. Two or three hours passed. So I have to think that if people really are serious about this and they bring it up constantly because they do. It comes up on internet feeds. It comes up on show topics. There must be a lot of screwed up people in this world to be that affected by an hour. Honestly it's not a big deal people. Well wait, I guess it is. But you know like I mean, I don't know. Take your Ritalin, take your ADHD meds if you're on all that stuff. I mean I could understand, okay I could understand someone like Gabby having a problem with it. Why would the rest of you have a problem with it? I don't get it. To actually really debate it like this hour is really making a difference on my body structure. Are you serious? If you really thought that, there's something else that's wrong with your body structure. I really don't think it's the clock. I mean animals have no concept of time. They don't notice it. And if you say, oh my dogs notice it. Well they're creatures of routine and you're there to influence it. Because I'll bet you, as soon as you abandon them, they kind of go back to their own rhythm of things. They're only doing things according to you because you happen to be holding the keys to the bowl of water. Alright, since you've made them your life, they have no choice to follow your routine. So it's just dumb when you say something like, oh the animals know when to get up, they react to me. Well you just told me when they get up. They react to you, you just told me the reason. Otherwise if they were out in the wild, it wouldn't make one sliver of a difference. They don't know the time. That's a human thing, right? Same as, I'm sure a dog or cat doesn't think in terms of am I going to be alive five years from now? That's the kind of animal that we worry about. I'm just saying people, there's a lot more to be screwed up over, even maybe weather and factors of weather. I can understand you being worried about that and talking comfortably like you do, right? Like when you say, oh I don't care about Jamaica. That's comfortable talk. Of course you can say that. You don't live there. It's like I could say the same thing, oh well I'm not worried about the lava flowing in the living rooms in Hawaii. Yeah, I don't live there so I can talk comfortable talk. But otherwise, it'll be okay people. Even if it were two hours difference, it'll be just okay. Shouldn't anybody else having any trouble over it except the yak yak. But I can't yak yak anymore. I've got to get out out and do work work so you have fun with the net net. By the way, what time it is? Okay, I'm joking. All right, so VA3KKY, hi and bye situations. I'll see you on, I'll see you any day I could get out here. I guess now we're assuming Saturday is my net. But I guess if you say it's Kevin's net, it's not too far from the truth. It's just a matter of which Kevin. All right, so apples and oranges. Take care, VA3KKY, back to Greg and have a good day. Hey. VA3KKY, this is KC2PKG. You don't listen to my preamble. We don't do that. We don't call each other out. We test dispersions on them. So I caution you against doing that. As to Eastern Daylight Time savings, Daylight Savings Time, one of the things that's stopping us from getting rid of it is that attitudes are split on the healthfulness of it and also which one to go, standard or Daylight Savings Time. It is so close that the current administration has refused to come down on one side or the other because it's right in the middle. It's like a 50-50 proposition of what they want to do. So once again, we're not getting rid of it. But we're on standard time now and there's lines of doctors that say standard time is the way to go. And then there are lines of doctors that say, oh no, Daylight Savings Time is the way to go. So we do nothing on that. KB0MAI, this is KC2PKG. How was your weekend, George? What are you doing today? I'm assuming you're behind the wheel of a truck. But what do I know? This is KC2PKG. Over to you, KB0MAI. I'm assuming you're behind the wheel of a truck. But what do I know? This is KC2PKG.

And I determined that I'd only have an hour and a half when I got up to Des Moines to get off nine drops, 30,000 pounds. And that just wasn't going to happen. So I decided to call the people that fixed tires and they said it was going to take a couple hours. And I calculated everything up and then I made a wise decision and came back to the house because I really didn't want to work anyways. You know how I am these days. So I've been sitting at the house talking on the radio pretty much since three o'clock this morning. I talked to a couple guys in Australia and I got to talk to Pat and to Kevin or Brian and even got to say hi to Kevin. And I get to say hi to you. So I have done absolutely nothing substantial so far today. I did say I was going to pick up a radio. The guy hasn't come back to me yet. Hopefully he will because I'll be available this morning to get it. We'll get it. A little FT500D. And forward to that. Brand new radio in the box. There's a whole lot to do and what it's all going to do. Weekend went really good for the most part. We didn't go anywhere or do anything because my wife had surgery and all of a sudden she picked up what we thought was pneumonia and we found out it was just viral. And then Sunday I had to convince her. It was all day Sunday and she wanted to go back to work on Monday but she was in no shape for that. She went out to do a little grocery shopping. We were gone for an hour and she was completely worn out when we came back. And finally at like six o'clock at night she decided yeah you might be right. I think I'm going to stay home. So she's in the other room sleeping right now trying to get better. I told her I said you're on you know let me reset real quick. You're on FMLA. So why are you worried about this? I just want to get back to work. They need me. I said no. They don't. When you retire next year. I shouldn't have said this. They're not going to pay attention to you. They're going to be too busy doing their own thing and getting the work done. Just take it easy. Relax. You're 64 years old. You need to get past this and then you can go back to work and do what you want to do. She just loves her job for the most part. I know she wants to get back but let's get you better first. So I'll be here for the night. I have nowhere to go right at this moment. It's just now getting light. So anyways back to you.

We ended up going down to Vegas, came back and then our next trip to Vegas, we didn't get back in time really to do it to get someone else. We ran two locals yesterday and then got back to the yard about 11 o'clock in the morning or 11 o'clock last night and then they gave us another Vegas load that was basically the same one that we had taken off of us because of the time crunch. So we're on my way back down. I'm about 30 miles north of Nephi heading south towards Vegas. We got 365 miles to Vegas so we'll be there in about six hours. That's going to be more like seven and a half, eight hours. We're going to stop somewhere, grab showers. So I've been just trying to catch up on sleep and they give us these local jobs. It's usually daytime stuff which my student's driving but then I got to be up for each of the stops so I never get a chance to sleep for more than like an hour here and there. And then I pick up the night load and have to drive all night which I'll drive for a little bit and then I'll sleep for about an hour and a half, two hours and then keep on driving. But I should get some better sleep today because after showers I'll sleep for a few hours until we get down to Vegas and I'll sleep for a few more hours until we get down to California and then we turn around and go back. But it's Arizona, yay, back in mountain time so when I'm at home it'll be a lot easier to get in towards the beginning of the night because it won't be so late. Or I can really treat myself by sleeping in until six or six thirty by coming into the net a little bit late. But yeah we're on our way down, I got my truck, it's been driving good.

I'll start the official load of Bill because I just showed him on just before me here. Bill I had the opportunity to meet Bill many years ago at the Rad's Coffee Break. Apparently Bill that's still going on because I seen something flash on my Facebook I hunted it down about the Rad's Coffee Break so I need to go look at that. Don that started it, Gray is a silent P now. Him and his wife both were hams and surely went a few years before Don but he's a silent ham now and to be honest with you I didn't realize that they were still doing the Rad's Coffee Break on Saturday evenings at Denny's. We had to make it out there because I know just about everybody out there. So the weekend was good it was even longer than what I thought it would be because I kept I don't for a life of me I kept thinking yesterday was Monday. When I woke up I felt like I had to go to work and what I realized is Sunday I'm going God just this just lengthened out my weekend. So that wasn't too bad. Changed the oil in my truck yesterday, babysit the dogs, Pam had a birthday party to go to with her for her mom. Just the girls is going to get petty care and some other things done so. That's about it from me. There's something else to comment on but it just kind of went right over my head. Can't even think of what it is now. Oh just the fact that I'm going to see my cardiologist. So that's where I'm off to this early in the morning then I got to work until midnight tonight. I don't got to be on the clock until two o'clock. So I got a little time in between the cardiologists visit and my work time. So Greg let me get it back to you. I probably already timed out something.

I spent the night at the hospital. It wasn't fun. I don't think I'll ever go back. It was a bad enough situation though that I actually felt that going was my best option last night. I woke up on Saturday morning. I had a bad old pain in my shoulder. I don't know if I was talking to you guys about this on the net Saturday morning or not. But I woke up yesterday morning. It was even worse. I could barely use my arm. I mean my hand was fine. My wrist movement, my hand. I could pick stuff up. As long as I didn't move the other part of my arm from my elbow to my shoulder away from my body or across my neck. If I tried to reach over to put deodorant on my left armpit, the wrenching pain was unbelievable. If I tried to spread my arms out to put on a jacket, it was unbelievable. It was the worst pain I've ever had in my life. So around 1130 last night I said enough of this and I called my brother-in-law. He dropped me off at the hospital. All well and good. Figured we'll get this figured out. I was sitting there for hours and hours and hours. I didn't get home until almost net time this morning. It was quarter after eight. Forty-five minutes before the net when I got home. So I haven't slept at all. They did an x-ray which was probably the dumbest thing. I don't get it. I could move my arm. I could move it. I could pick things up. As long as I didn't move my upper part of my arm away from or too far close to my body. So there was obviously nothing broke. I mean that's all an x-ray is going to tell you. Then they said, okay, well, follow up with your family doctor and get him to schedule a CV scan. I said I don't really have like a regular family doctor like that. You can just go see him at, you know, well go to a walk-in clinic. They said right walk-in clinics around here are like full of so many immigrants. It just makes me uncomfortable. There's so many. Hang on."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-11-03T05:03:58+00:00","id":74416,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":74415,"text":" Jesus, little bastard, he's crawling through the grocery bags. Get out, man. Go out and play. Anyway, so... Where was I? So, they took the x-ray and they said, follow up to a walk-in clinic. There's so many immigrants at the walk-in clinics around here and so many languages being spoken and nobody speaking English. It feels like I'm in a foreign country, which gives me anxiety because when I was in Africa back years ago, I didn't have the greatest time. And that's one of the things that would trigger me would be a whole bunch of people around me and I can't understand a word none of them are saying. It's bad enough I can't pick out facial expressions because of my eyesight, but then when I can't understand a word that's being spoken around me, it just makes me incredibly anxious and nervous. So, the chances of that happening are slim to none. So, when I was leaving the hospital last night, they gave me Toradol, an anti-inflammatory. So, I took the Toradol and the pain almost went away. Like, the pain is like almost gone at this point. Ah, well, maybe not. So, hospital was a waste of bloody time. I could have bought an anti-inflammatory at the bloody pharmacy and it would have been fine. And it was the worst I ever heard. Like, give me an MRI or a CT scan or something. Like, it's muscular or ligature or something. Like, it's a muscle or a bloody tendon or something like that. So, it turns out what they think is what I think. I think when I got my shots last week, the flu shot and the bloody COVID shot, the pharmacist may have given me the shot slightly too high in my arm. And there's pockets in between your joints. And apparently, if it nicks one of those pockets, weeks later or months later, you can get severe pain in that, like, that joint, that rotation area in your shoulder. So, they think that that's the explanation because there's nothing broken. I mean, I can grab the area and massage it really hard and it doesn't hurt. It's the only thing that hurts if I move my arm a certain way or rotate a certain way, right? So, I was so pissed off by the end of the hospital visit last night that I don't think I'll ever go there again. I think that it's going to be a heart attack or a stroke or something that's going to make me go to the hospital and then I'll be in a mess because my time there last night was just as I expected. It was full of people. Everybody had an ailment. And people were getting ahead of me because they were coming in with something worse. I think, in a way, let me reset."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-11-03T05:05:27+00:00","id":74417,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":74416,"text":" In a way, I think triage is the way to go, right? You know, you assess people and they get seen based on the severity of their injuries, okay? But if I'm there and when I come in, there's 10 people ahead of me and then two hours later, there's 20 people ahead of me, that's a load of BS. And that just infuriated me. And by the time I got out of there last night, I wasn't the friendliest customer, let me tell you. I really wasn't the friendliest customer. So when I go to the pharmacy this morning, I'm going to fill a prescription for Toradol and hopefully that's going to take care of the issue because I already feel like 90% better than I did yesterday. And the Toradol, I mean, my regular call-in doctor could have prescribed that. I didn't have to go to the hospital for over eight hours or eight hours a bit just to get Toradol. Pain in the ass. Was not impressed. Anyway, enough complaining for this morning, but you guys know how I feel about the hospital. So if I went, it was something bloody serious, so I felt it was serious. You know, you guys remember when I crashed the bike and my knee was like four times its regular size in months. I didn't go to the hospital. And, you know, other things that I've had wrong with me over the years, I just don't go to the hospital. I let it work itself out. And this probably would have eventually worked itself out as well, but the pain was just, it was too much. I couldn't, could not take it. So I had to. Anyhow, I'll pass the mic back to you, Gray, and I'll be here, man. Well, I got to go in. I think I have 15 minutes here, but yeah, other than that, I'll be back.

Well, you did get a Toradol out of it and that's made you feel better. So that's semi-success, although being in the hospital all night is a bummer. You know, in St. Martin, in France, in Germany, and I suspect most of Europe, the pharmacists act as kind of like a walk-in clinic. I just tried jumping over a wall in St. Martin and really tore herself up. And we were pointed over to the pharmacist and he bandaged her and got everything together and gave us some different kinds of medicines, one of which was amazing. I mean, she was all scraped up, her whole leg was scraped up. And we put this stuff on it and in two days you couldn't tell that it had been scraped up. So every time we go to St. Martin, we buy like five more tubes of that. It's called Baum number five. But that's the way they work it. Maybe we need to do that more too.

Okay, KJ5 IRQ. After government attacked Israeli soldiers in southern Gaza on Tuesday, Israel launched strikes that killed dozens of Palestinians. As of Thursday, what was the state of the ceasefire? Did both sides say the ceasefire was still on? Did Israel say it was still on and Hamas said it was not? Hamas said it was still on and Israel said it was not. Both sides said the ceasefire was off. Neither side would address the ceasefire. So which one of those conditions, Josh?

I had to think about it for a while because it means so many different things depending on who you are, where you're at, how you're raised. I can give you a general definition of what I think a man is but it wouldn't necessarily mean what you think a man is or what Bill thinks a man is or Kevin. Everybody is going to have a various answer to that. So I'm looking forward to hearing everybody's definition of what a man is. I don't believe a man is based off of how much you can lift or if you can grow fur on your face or you're in command of a whole bunch of people. That's my being macho. Macho is in my opinion not being a man. For me it's more emotional and being able to or character I think is the word I'm looking at. Some of these characteristics I see as a man is like owning your decisions instead of blaming others. You make a decision, you stick with it, you might be right, you might be wrong and when you're wrong you know that you can sit there and say, well I was the one that made that choice and I can't blame the others for it or maybe standing up for something. I think these are all traits that combine together too by the way. So if you're standing up for something it might cost you something to stand up for what you believe in and that's part of being a man. And then handling the consequences of whatever happens. I did this and this is what the consequences are and I got to live with it and it's my fault that kind of thing. I also think though it's to protect and provide and contribute to not only to your family but society in general. And also to control your impulses. When you're a kid you get angry at something and you act out or your ego or your greed or your lust. We have that problem with our president, right? I just had to put that little jab in there, I'm sorry. But that's to be able to control, being a man is to be able to control these urges, these feelings and put things into perspective and to be able to..."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-11-03T05:41:41+00:00","id":74462,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":74461,"text":" But then we go to, you know, that's kind of my understanding of what a man is, you know. It's just not going through puberty and being able to do, you know, the mumbo jumbo or grow hair or this, that, and the other. But then you go from different eras, you know, different walks of life and each one of them. I mean, just, you know, for instance, in the 1950s, 1940s, you weren't a man if your wife was making money and you weren't, that kind of thing. Or culture and religion, I mean, different religions have different attitudes about what manhood's all about and the age and everything. I mean, there's some religions where you're a man at 13 and you go through a ritual and boom, that's it, man. I know the Jews do that, but I'm talking more of African countries where they got to go out and kill a lion at age 13. If they don't, they're a wuss. Politics is another one. I mean, you know, depending if you're a conservative or, you know, and you think of a traditional masculinity of things or if you're more of a progressive where, you know, you stress empathy and equality and emotional honesty, I mean, that's going to change your aspects of what you think a man is. And also ego and unsecurities is another thing or personal experiences. Well, they're separated, aren't they? Do another reset. Sorry about this. I'm taking too long. Personal experiences, I mean, who were you raised by? Was it a mother? Was it a soldier? Was it a poet? You know, stay at home dad. All these are going to emphasize what you think a man is. And so just with these alone, well, one more. Ego and insecurity. Some men preach, you know, masculinity is to feel superior to others, you know, and I can live more than he can, this, that, or the other. I mean, there are people like that, but every one of these things I talked about is going to have a different reflection on each man and how they presume they are a man or they're not a man. So, I mean, it could be a very, I understand why if you're talking to your kids about it, you know, you might get a different response from them of what they think a man is. So, I think it's just a matter of being able to be responsible and disciplined and have courage. And I'm not talking about running into a minefield and saving your buddy. I'm just talking about, you know, being able to, you know, just telling the truth and standing up for someone and walking away when things are going the wrong way and you know that you, how would I say this, you just walk away from people that are going to give you a lot of trouble and try to change your mind or compassion. You know, all these things are part of being a man. So, I mean, good luck. I'm really interested to hear everybody's take on this. But you're right, it's going to be so many different opinions. So, I hope this doesn't turn controversial. That would be sad to see, right?

You know, that's kind of the crossover for being an adult, because that would be for being a woman or being a man. So some of those things kind of have a dual responsibility between the two sexes. I think being a man is, yeah, controlling, I think controlling one's urges. Taking on responsibility, providing for, protecting your family, your loved ones, the ones in your group, as well as in general. And trying to think of what else was there. Provide, protect, to be a good role model for both your sons and your daughters, and for those around you. You know, you show a son what it is to be the man of the house or to be a man, but you also show your daughter what they need to be looking for when they're out there dating and choosing a life partner to be that responsible role model to give them an example of what's considered good behavior and what's considered not good behavior. So I think providing for, protecting, and being a good role model are parts of being a man. But also, being a good role model can also be for the female as well. So like I said, there's a lot of crossover, I think. And mothers definitely protect their young. But the father protects the mother and his young.

Probably briefly. Still not feeling very good. Man, definition of a man is hard. Of course I'm going to look at it through historical lenses because that's typically what I try to do, right? Typically, historically, a man is an adult male. It has 6Y chromosomes, just like Steve said. I was going to say it a little more crude than that, so I'm glad he said it before I. I was actually going to say the number one requirement is they've got to have a penis. That was going to be my first requirement. But, traditionally, they're the protectors. It's almost like they've got to protect, provide, and procreate. I should remember that. Protect, provide, and procreate. And so you can't procreate without a penis. I mean, that's a man. So, those are really the basis. Now, everything else around that I consider window dressing. It makes you a good man or a bad man, but it doesn't make you not a man. So, you can still be a man and do evil stuff. You can. But a better man is the one who does good stuff, right? So, it's a tough question. It really is. But that's what I'm going to go with.

So, you know, it's strange, you know, classes are not based off of, you know, you did everything right so therefore you got to this certain point and this is the class you're in. I mean there's a lot of aspects to it of how you get where you're going to be in life from the time you're born, from the parents you have, to the education you get, to the mentors that you have around you. I mean it's really crazy how it's all set up but yeah we have classes. I mean we have the elite class, the ruling class, and these are people, you know, that don't work, not like we work, you know, corporate CEOs and stockholders and dynasty wealth, you know, who shot JR, you know, that kind of thing.

When you think of classes, you know, you think of India and they have, you know, different classes, but their classes are a little bit different or somewhat different than say classes maybe in the United States if you want to put people in the United States in classes because they, you know, they have different levels. They have people that do different jobs that make a different amount of money. But I think one of the differences between say the United States and India is in the United States people are able to move from class to class more easily. We've got people that, you know, start off with their parents or maybe with like a single parent and, you know, they're, you know, in the lowest or poverty class. And that's where, you know, it gets kind of wishy-washy is, you know, whether or not, you know, that would be considered a class or just, you know, where you are in life. But, you know, those, you know, some of those kids that have started off with single parents, you know, working two jobs and not having money and then they turn around and they do something that ends up putting them, you know, in the upper echelon where they're, you know, making a lot of money. And there's a lot of people that, where they're, you know, the people that are in the upper classes, you know, in the upper 1% that have, you know, lost it all and gotten put down into a much lower class and then sometimes they turn it around and end up going back into an upper class and sometimes they never turn it around. So, you know, I guess the definition of class would have to be, you know, agreed upon first whether or not it's something that you can move in and out of like in the United States or not move in and out of like, say, in India where they have, you know, if you're born into a certain class, you're not going to get out of that. It would take an act of, act from God to move you from one class to another. But for the most part they don't.

I never used to, man. It kind of sucks because I used to make really good money at one point. And that unfortunately, like around COVID, it really stopped because my business like fell off around COVID times. It really did. You know, I used to get, you know, a few calls a week, at least a few calls a week. And lately, it's lucky to get two, lucky to, you know, make enough to keep the rent and groceries paid. Now, I still do have a couple of customers that I've had for years that pay monthly. And I take care of any issue they have. They're remotely or on site and they just pay monthly.

Thank you KC2PKG. Yeah, there is different classes. Like George said, you can't deny it. You just can't. The easiest way to illustrate a class system in the United States is you take Bill Gates and compare him to me. I guess use me as an example. I mean they are two different classes. Very easy to determine that there is a class system everywhere in the world, not just in the United States. And depending on where you live, the class system is different. So British or UK class system is different than what our class system in the United States is. And that's different than the one in India like we were talking about before. So I'm going to speak about what I think about America, about the United States. And there is the common three class model system. And I know a lot about classes. There is this particular thing because I actually had to write a big paper in college a few years back on it. So you do have your upper, middle, and lower class. That's what we're all familiar with. Upper class, the rich. The middle class, I would consider myself middle class. And then you have the lower class, the poor and the poor. But the social economic models have changed a lot in the past 100 years. So you no longer just have an upper, middle, or lower class. Now you have an upper class that has upper class and upper and lower class. So you have old money and new money is a good way to put it. The middle class is similar. I mean you have the working class which is upper middle class which is highly educated professionals. Like I said before, doctors and lawyers and such. Then you have the lower middle class which is semi-professionals, skilled class people which is kind of funny these days. Because I know plumbers and I know electricians that make more money than doctors. So I'm not sure that actually fits in that mind frame anymore. But then you have the lower middle class. You have the working class, blue collar and service industries. The working poor, and I did pull this up from my notes from my college days. The working poor full time but remain near or below the poverty line and at that time, and this was five years ago, four times a year ago, the poverty line was slower than what it is now. And then you have the underclass, the long term unemployment or persistent poverty. And I believe it's even a lower class than that. And this is where I might step on toes. Ingenious servitude, we talked about it before. All the migrants that are coming over and getting paid sub par wages for a job, I believe is the lowest of the lower class. So I mean there's, that's where I'm going to stop. You could easily, very easily go into a multidimensional model that could give you a lot more classes. I think those six, seven, eight classes will probably touch just about every person in the United States.

It really is. I think the current sitting government is refusing to bend on simple things, healthcare. And as a result, you know, we can't get or they can't get an agreement on healthcare, so they're holding food hostage as a result. And I think governments are meant to protect their people, right? And for a government to hold food hostage because there's a stalemate, that's terrible. Trump could easily sign an executive order that says, okay, we're going to keep these benefits going. Regardless, people need to eat. But he's not doing that. But he's signed so many other executive orders that help rich people without hesitation. He's pardoned so many criminals with executive orders and people that are bad people that have gotten out of jail as a result of Trump and committed more crimes that were along their criminal genre. I think he could make this go away, this food problem anyway. He knows, but he doesn't because he's seen everything along political lines. You're a Democrat or you're a Republican. You're red or you're blue. You're with us or you're against us. And even in, like, bringing in military into particular states, he's always saying, we're going into Democratic states. Like, he's operating the government like a regime, crush your enemies, hurt people that don't agree with you. That's not a good person, in my opinion. So, Gray, I don't see this as going well. I really don't, man. And at this stage in the game, if there is one in eight Americans that are going hungry as a result of this, I think the international community has to step in and say, come on, we did it in Gaza. We brought food assistance to people who were starving. Now the United States is in that situation. The current sitting government is allowing its citizens to starve, allowing people, families, children to go hungry. So I think that at this stage in the game, you have to do what you did for Gaza, humanitarian assistance. Obviously, the government that's in place doesn't care enough about its people to make sure people get to eat. So the international community should step in. That's how I feel about it, Gray.

Yeah, since this is the second longest shutdown so far and we're only a few days away from it being the longest, I see what I honestly think is going to happen. Tomorrow. Tomorrow is election day. And they're waiting to see what happens. I really do think that if it wasn't such an election tomorrow, that they would have already started the government back up. I mean, don't get me wrong. I don't think Republicans nor Democrats want to hurt people. I mean, they don't want to hurt people. However, with the bureaucracy that we have in place in our country, they can't help but hurt people. They don't have the power not to hurt people if the government shuts down. They just don't have the power. It's not there. There's no mechanism in place when the government shut down. And that goes for both sides. So I think, okay, I'll put it like this. If Democrats were in tomorrow, you know, let's say they get both governorships and New York City is gone. I mean, there's no chance that anybody's going to beat the Southwest and New York City. So let's focus on Jersey and Virginia and the governorships there. If they both turn blue or if they stay blue, they'll end the shutdown. I expect Wednesday or Thursday, maybe Friday. However, if they don't and the Republicans take those things, they may be in for a while. That's just what I think. That's my opinion just by reading all sorts of news and listening to Jeffries and Johnson and all the other dum-dums that are up there in Congress. And I think they're all pretty much dum-dums. They're not idiots. They're not stupid. But they're dumb. They do dumb things. As do I. So there's that. So yeah, Gray, I really think if tomorrow goes the Democrats' way, they'll end the shutdown. If it doesn't go their way and Republicans end up with the Wren, then I think we're going to be in for the longest shutdown in U.S. history.

This is repeater station kilo, kilo seven. Remember Quebec November, full star, no 6222. I agree with Josh and Jeff, but I also think that my friend, my ham friend is in Georgia, has a point. It was about a different conversation, but when people are sick and tired of being sick and tired, they're going to do something. So by that I mean, if it stays shut down, which I don't think it will, but if it did, especially with the holidays coming up, I would think that there would probably be a lot of angry people, more than there already are, that are going to uprise and do some sort of something, protest, maybe riot. I don't know exactly, but something along that line, say, hey, we're angry, we want our government back. We're tired of not getting our benefits. Then you also, if there isn't already, have strikes, you know, hey, we're not getting paid, why should we work? So there's that too. But for me, I think it's just a big temper tantrum. Yeah, I just get what I wanted, boo hoo hoo, we're going to shut down the government. That's what I think it is. But that's just me. I hope it ends before the holidays as well. I agree with that.

You never disappoint men when it comes to your net. You always do a great job, great research, great questions. I just don't have that in me. I used to years and years ago, but I've been doing this so long now that the ideas are gone for questions. I do try now and then on days when I don't want it to get too political. I don't want to get away from being able to discuss these things, that's for sure. This is Repugnist nation Bilo 7, November Quebec November, All Star News in 2 and 2, located in Shelton, Washington. I think that if Trump and the boys want to keep being insistent our way or the highway, I think the international community should come in and if anything else, it will embarrass his presidency even more than he already has embarrassed it. If the international community has to come to aid the American people who are starving as a result of a belligerent government, then I think that will be one for the history books as well. I think this guy is already going to go down in history as the worst president in history. This term especially, I mean we're only 10 months in, 11 months in, and look at the damage and destruction to the government, to programs, to services, to just the general way of life. And I mean the guy is an adjudicated sex offender. He is. It's been adjudicated. It's been determined. He's a multi, 34 time convicted felon on top of that. And people are still seeing him as a good old boy. Great. Best choice for president. I don't get it. I really don't get it. He was the guy that was going to keep the United States out of wars. In the meantime he bombed Iran. He's starting a war with Venezuela. His military and ice on the streets running rampant inside the United States. And if the government is shut down, how is ice still running rampant through the city? You know, the military is going to war with countries. I think they're selecting which services they want to support during this shutdown of government. And I think that unfortunately they're choosing to let people go hungry. They could. Trump could. Say, here's an executive order that makes it so that SNAP benefits are in place. But, no, he's not doing that. He doesn't care. And I think when you get a very uncaring president, just because you didn't vote for him, you deserve to suffer."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-11-03T07:00:36+00:00","id":74528,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":74527,"text":" V01 UKZU, get some rest man.

He's supposed to be everyone's president, not just the Republican president, and he draws everything, a lot of political lines, including hunger and starvation, for the most vulnerable in society. It doesn't deem health care subsidies as being important. It doesn't matter if you're rich. You know, you're going to get your health care. But if you're not, you're in real trouble here. I think it's sad, sad situation. I think the international community should definitely step in, man. If there's people going hungry, food assistance is required.

Let's see. Lots to talk about, but I'm not sure I want to talk about any of it in the 73 round. You know, the same thing that I tell my kids, I'll mention to everybody on here. If you can't control it, don't worry about it. That's what we kind of tell ourselves here in this house, anyhow. And not a plastic trunk. I mean, granted, I'm not the biggest Trump fan in the world. I think he's done some pretty good stuff. I think he's done some pretty bad stuff too. That being said, I can't change what he's doing. So I'm trying really hard not to get bent out of shape about it. I can't change anybody's mind on what they believe, so I try not to get bent out of shape on that either anymore. Something I've been thinking a lot about the last few weeks, and it's really funny because my kids, my boys actually reminded me of that. So that's kind of like the new, I wouldn't say new family model. We've been saying it for a while, but that's kind of a family model around here. You know, if we can't control it, we're not going to worry about it. But I'll tell you what I can control. Texas has a bunch of propositions up tomorrow for voting, you know, election day. We don't have any good elections going on here, rather than that, but there are some propositions to change a few of the pieces on our Texas state constitution. So I have read into that, and I'm going to read some more today on it and be ready to vote tomorrow. So that's what I can control. You know, Darrell, you're right. Trump's supposed to be everybody's president. And I'm not sure that he is. I can say the same thing for every past president too, though. I mean, I really don't think Obama was everybody's president. I don't think Biden was everybody's president, although they're supposed to be. So I agree with you. He's supposed to be. I don't know. Somebody told me the other day, we were talking about it and talking about something else, but it was on the subject of why Trump seems callous. And he does at times. He seems very callous. You know, a buddy of mine who is a lot more a lot more MAGA than I am. He goes, well, hell, Josh, if somebody shot at you twice and killed one of your best friends, how would you react? Got me thinking, you know, the guy has a point. My buddy has a point. I don't know. I think we're in a very volatile situation. That's what I think. A very volatile situation. I can't control 90 percent of it, so I'm going to sit back and enjoy the ride."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-11-03T07:05:09+00:00","id":74531,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":74530,"text":" 73s man, you have a good one.

On the problems I've been having with RFP beginning to fail and my effort over several weeks to move over to All Star Link, not Echo Link. I really don't like Echo Link. I'm glad Bill Jones is on the Net this morning. I had communicated with my clear note vendor, Jerry Philby, and Bill Jones knew all of this kind of stuff, but I'll let you all know. It turns out that he tried and then both of the Joes tried to connect and weren't able to help me get connected. I sent an email off to John Westerkamp, is his name, that runs W8DGN. His response was very short, but not very helpful. I'm three sentences, I'm going to read it. I'm glad we have no restrictions on our systems. I was asking if he had whitelist turned on. It's a small system where we've had recently Internet issues. Please try connecting via All Star, Echo Link again. Thanks, John. Yeah, I said Jack. It's John Westerkamp. That's all he wrote. On a lark this morning, I tried to connect, and lo and behold, it connected. So this is my first time to use W8DGN, and I'm glad that I got a good report on my audio. This is called Progress, folks, really good progress. I'm in a happy temper today. Last thing I'll say before I turn it back to Net Control is I haven't had a TV for years, but I've had TV delivered by FedEx today. It's a 48-inch Sony Bravia with very high ratings. After it gets delivered, I've got to get it all unpacked and connected and all that, but hopefully by the end of the week I'll be able to watch movies in my apartment. K5EMDH going back to Net Control, looking forward to hearing all of our prints here. You know, there you are, 73 and 88, K5EMDH back to Net Control. This is repeater station kilo kilo 7. All right, you're sounding good coming through the W8DGN, Peter, but you also always sounded good coming through on your IRLP, too. So I've never had any problems and stuff like that. All right, buddy, you take care. I'm glad you got everything worked out and stuff like that. Yeah, I didn't think there was any restrictions on W8DGN, and I haven't tried to connect to it through my clear note, so there you go. I know if I tried to connect to Acling through my clear note, they'd send me a nasty letter telling me I can't do that, so I'm not heading out. There you go.

I've been enjoying what I can, of course, with the dogs outside and all that kind of stuff, but my wife's been home. She stayed home from work yesterday. We had some issues with my mom with her dementia. She's been up all night and rearranging her room, pulling furniture, which is unbelievable, blocking doorways and just all sorts of weird stuff. We've been kind of going through quite a bit with her the past couple of days. Finally she conked out at around 6 a.m. yesterday, 5.30 a.m. in the morning yesterday, and was able to fall asleep. So we fell asleep also. So I apologize there, bud. I know I'm supposed to be on the other net, and I try, but the time is not the best for me at 6 a.m. But hopefully I'll get back on there and be on the net. So anyway, bud, I did get your email, but like I said, we had a lot of things going on with my mom. I didn't get a chance to respond to your email, but I'm glad that you're on the repeater now. This way you can get in without a problem. Just keep in mind that it does shut down at 815, and sometimes the net is still going, so you have to switch over to do drop in or whatever. So just keep that in mind, bud, that the WADGN repeater does shut down at 815. Anyway, not much else going on. My wife is home today. We've got some stuff to take care of with my mom, and then we've got the plumber coming down today to do the heating inspection. I should say the apartment with the AC guy coming to inspect the heating, air conditioning system, make sure it's all good to go for the winter, but I think everything's good to go. But every time they come, it's like a few hundred dollars because they want to upgrade something or do whatever. Unfortunately, a lot of times it's needed, so I just got to go through my finances before they get here and make sure I can afford whatever they may suggest. It seems like it's always something. Not much else going on. Glad to hear about Barbara's dad. Glad all is going better. And of course, big hello to grandma. And that's really about it. Good morning there, Larry and Roy and Gail and of course my brother Joe here in Las Vegas. Good morning, everybody. Everybody have a great day, and I see Rosie in the background there.

My repeater had to tell me that it is 12 o'clock p.m. here in Newfoundland, which it is. And I'm glad that the repeater automatically updated on overnight, over the weekend, because I didn't mess with it. I was figuring it was going to be an hour off and I was going to have to change something, but nope. It took care of business, man. I hope you're doing well. Just everybody on the net. Great news, Barbara, about your family there. Oh man, I went through some pain over the weekend. I woke up Saturday morning and this is the worst shoulder pain that I've ever had in my life. And only to have to end up going to the hospital last night, which I never do. I absolutely hate hospitals, and especially the one that's closest to me. So I went to the one completely on the other end of town. The one that's closest to me, I call it the crackhead hospital, because there's a lot of homeless down around the area of the hospital and they're constantly going inside. And, you know, in a lot of cases just trying to warm up, but that's not what the hospital is for. And they end up getting in fights with security guards down there and it's just not a comfortable environment. I mean, I don't even feel comfortable waiting in the waiting room with headphones on. It's that dangerous of a place. So I don't go to that hospital, so I went to one that's like an extra 25 minutes away and had an x-ray. I knew it was going to do absolutely nothing because nothing was broken. I mean, I could use my hand and everything, you know, below the elbow on that arm. It's just above the elbow and my shoulder. I couldn't bend it. I couldn't move it out from my body. I couldn't reach, you know, my other arm just to put on like deodorant. I couldn't even do it. I got trapped in the bathtub Saturday night. I had to just work myself up on the edge and flop out of the bathtub down onto my left side, the one that wasn't hurting, and just lay there pretty much on the towel until I dried off. It was unbelievable the amount of pain I was in. I'm going to reset one."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-11-03T07:36:15+00:00","id":74564,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":74563,"text":" So I finally broke down 11 o'clock last night. I said I can't take this in the morning to go to the hospital. So I got a ride to the hospital, and I was there until just after 8 o'clock this morning. So I didn't sleep last night. They did give me a T-cell, which is an anti-inflammatory, and that worked. I have very, very little pain here this morning, but unless, you know, I try to really stretch that out. But that's what I'm going to do, is just some general motion exercises, and hopefully it was nothing major. I did get some vaccines a couple weeks back. It's two weeks ago today, actually. And so it's strange, but not unheard of, to get pain exactly where I had it if the injection was given slightly too high. Apparently there's some pockets there that are around nerves or something, or tendons, and if the shot got injected there, you know, days or weeks later it can cause you pain. So I got some inflammation because of that, because nothing showed up in the x-rays. They recommended I get a CT scan just to make sure, but with the anti-inflammatory working, I don't think that it's anything too serious, probably just the vaccine, given a little too high on my arm. But it was terrible. I literally suffered all weekend. But I'm okay today. I've got a tiny little bit of pain, and that's it. So we got through, man. Presevered. Thanks for all the comments from everybody here on this net, especially a lot of you guys. I got out to make sure I was okay. I tell you, that's what Radio Family is all about, man. You can tell the people that really care, judging by messages and stuff that we've received. So thanks to everybody who did reach out. And other than that, nothing much else going on, man. Just going to take it easy, maybe lay off some video games today, and let the shoulder really rest because, man, I don't want that pain back.

Thanks for taking my check in. This is Phil K0 of the X in Colorado. So on this day in history, November 3rd, 1868, Ulysses S. Grant was elected 18th President of the United States. In American politics, we have lobbyists. One of the origins of the lobbyists is attributed to the Grant administration. After a long day's work, President Grant, he liked to retire to the lobby of the Willard Hotel and have a cigar and a brandy. So he would visit the lobby there, buy the President a drink, and get his ear on the current political situation and on legislation. So, yeah, the lobbyists. And lobbyists have gotten a bad rep over the years, but really the function of the lobbyists is to provide insight and information to the legislators on upcoming legislation. So, for instance, a lot of our legislators are lawyers. Well, they know law, but they don't necessarily know anything about biotechnology or telecommunications or any number of things that come up for legislation. So it's the lobbyist who educates them and gives them insight on that. Of course, the lobbyists have to be careful because they are trying to bend the legislation maybe towards what's best for business and not what's best for the consumer, but that's a different issue.

So our prayers are with you for sure. Good to hear Bud there. He sounded very clear and really good, very good. So I'm glad that's working well. And you got your TV, hey. Oh yeah, you know, we watched the Netflix movie last night and it was really wonderful, true story. And Heaven is for Real. So I really urge folks to watch that. It's a very, very good film. And I knew it was a true story. I've heard about it before. But check it out. Over to you, Joey. This is Casey Sheldon. Oh, and one other thing. Let me reset. Yeah, Bicycle Joe. We saw two of your videos. We kind of got behind here about the Catholic Church that was all closed up. That was magnificent, beautiful inside. I couldn't believe the detail. And then the old Catholic school has been closed. So that they were two really well put together videos. We really enjoyed them and we're going to see the rest of them that we haven't seen today, I'm sure. So over to Joey.

You know, during the first phases of COVID, when it started, the Chinese Communist Party, CCP, welded the door shut on residents to lock them in. So, yeah, just make sure your door's not welded shut, kid, and see if you can get out there and go out in the yard, the patio or whatever, and get some sunshine.

We did a really wonderful lasagna last night. So I got all the dishes and that to uh, wash this morning.

Any rate, that's kind of my day. So I'll say thanks again for doing the net. And hopefully you'll get a little bit more pick up as people wake up and get their coffee.

Yesterday Jane and I had our little adventure. We took the light rail from the South Bellevue station to the end of the line in Redmond. And hadn't ridden it since they've had it open there for a year or so. They haven't ridden it yet. We went up there, walked around Redmond. There's a quilting store up there. There's a Penn Franklin up there that has a lot of fabric. And Jane was looking for a particular color and everything that she wasn't able to find on all the other quilt stores that we went into. And she found the perfect match for this quilt that she's working on. So we found that. It was about a half a mile walk from the light rail station. And then we found a nice teriyaki restaurant to have lunch in and wandered on back. It was a very delightful day because the sun was out and I was overdressed. I was too warm. I had to carry my jacket. It's always a pleasant thing when you're overdressed in this time of the year. It's that warm out. That's about all we got from here.

And more people showed up than they expected, but that was even better. I had a lot of kiddos and my chili was a hit. What little was left went home in Tupperware, which is even better. And what else? Oh, during that party, or get together, I was talking to my brother-in-law who is a licensed electrician. And although I could probably do it, he offered to run 220 into my hand shack. And I'm going to take him up on that and see if I can graduate to a real amplifier here. I'm operating an A11H right now, an Ameritron. And yeah, so that was the only thing holding me back from going to a big boy. And so I'm thinking a hand fest, I'll be looking for one. Other than that, still nursing. I'm one of the most dreaded diseases known to man, the man cold. And my wife had similar, but she went to work today. But she was doing a lot better than me. She caught her earlier than I did. Yeah, nothing horrible, just tired achy and more lethargic than normal. But with that, I'll turn it back over to you. This is N7, JVJ. Good morning, everyone. Well, thank you much, Henry, and I'm glad you had a great weekend. That chili feed sounded pretty good. And sorry you got a cold. Hopefully you can get rid of that man cold here before too long. And 220 to the shack so you can move up to a big boy amp. So yeah, I appreciate your check in, and thank you for stopping by and have a great day. That brings me to the end of my list again. That's been a very short one today, so it's been kind of slow. So it's almost 930. This is John W7, JSM, and this is the PSOG 9 a.m. social net. I'm going to go ahead and give the last call.

Today we're standard temperature pressure and rain. If you're not here, you know it rains. It's not a lot. Anyway, nothing exciting today. Just parked by the museum. We actually listen to the radio to aircraft come and go. I realized in the museum our F-86, Canadian-built F-86, but for a long time Boeing used it as the chase aircraft. And like when they flew the 747, now they've got a T-38 and it went out of here just a bit ago. It's over east in Washington, probably doing a training flight because there's nothing else with it. And that is kind of cool. They have a T-38 which you'll love to handle that. And it would be great because it's got two seats and it's a training aircraft. It probably makes sense. They can take a photographer and do all the imaging things they want. Anyway, nothing else much. I committed a sin for one of my friends Norm, Jackson, that Norm. I installed Windows 11 on my desktop. It was an old machine. It used to be probably 7 and 10. And it's too old to have the hardware in it to let Microsoft say you should install it. You can copy the ISO image and do an install with Rufus. So I did that and everything's working. I tested things like Winlink with it. All the programs I normally use work fine. So anyway, I figured why not? I can't hurt it. Worst case, I keep all my data on a separate drive. So if it dies, I can recover anyway. That's about it. Band tonight. I'm going to go to the museum and we need some people down here. It's kind of then. I'm going to say 73. Everybody have a great day. Enjoy the critters outside. They like the moisture now.

So go fighting banana slugs. Yay. Let's see, Jack, you were talking about the extension for Windows 10. I also was able to acquire that for my Windows 10 computer here. I'm not able to upgrade it to 11 because there's some problem with the boot disk. It's like the only thing that's preventing it from upgrading. But there's some security thing with the boot disk, like I can't boot off of this SSD drive without changing the BIOS settings to make it secure. And then when it's secure, it doesn't recognize the SSD drive or something like that anyway. So I'm kind of stuck with that one. So I was fortunate that Microsoft offered me that same thing. It's a 12-month extension. There was no charge, but you might have to be logged in with a Microsoft account on your machine. Maybe that might be the thing. I'm not positive. Anyway, there you go. I hear a rumor, now this is through the rumor mill here, that Wednesday may or may not be VK3KK day. So I'm looking to find out more information on the events and festivities therein.

All right, you have a great afternoon and you can always come back for a recheck if you want to. Next time I call for new stations and or rechecks, etc. So great to meet you, Claire. All right, let's continue on. Let's go see what Mike's up to. K1MD are. Hi, Mike. Good morning, everybody. You know, I think this is just kind of an off-the-wall comment here, but I think truck drivers not only need to know English, but they also had to pass kindergarten. It'd be a good idea because this truck ahead of me cannot stay between the lines. He is constantly driving on the shoulder. There's no reason for that. This road is going to go to the exit that he's going to need to take. And I know that because container trucks take this exit all the time. Got to love commuting anyway. And it looks like on the other side of the freeway, there is a whole bunch of red flashy lights and it don't look like there's anything but one lane, maybe two getting by. That ain't good. So if you're in the area of the West Seattle Bridge heading south, expect to stay there for a good long while. Nothing new on the critter side of things. The kittens are still all, I still got eight of them, they're still causing havoc and confusion amongst our house. And you know, I'm going to have to second the Linux thing. I've been using, I have a computer that will not upgrade to Windows 10 and it doesn't have that special chip that Microsoft demands that you have. Thanks for that Microsoft. So I just switched over to Mint Linux. And for those of you out there that are not computer gurus, two flavors of Linux that I'd recommend for those Windows users that just want to come in and have a good time with the computer and not have too much trouble, I would highly recommend going with either Mint Linux or Ubuntu. They're really easy to use. They are very similar in their setup to Windows and they do run Windows applications. It's not native but you install an app and then that app will run Windows applications. Plus everything you can do on Windows you can do on Linux for free. You don't have to buy Office, you don't have to pay for Office 365. You can get something else that does the job just as good if not better and it's free. Microsoft does not want you to know that. They just want to take all your money. Anyway, I'm off the freeway now so there's no more traffic and I'm going to bring this back to the net because that's all I got today. K1 MDR. This is repeater station Kilo Kilo 7, November Quebec November. Alright Mike, thank you for dropping by. You drive safe out there. Hey, I do have a couple of things though. So Mike I think is down to seven or eight kittens. He is starting to give them away so if you're interested in a nice, fluffy, gorgeous little kitten, you know, just contact Mike and I think his email is correct and on his QRZ page. I want to look at that now. We just go out to K1 MDR and inquire if you're interested in getting a fluffy kitten. Now, back to the truck though that you saw that had the issues driving outside the lines and off into the side of the road. Could it be that the driver is having a mechanical issue? Did he slow down as well? Could it be that there's some distress in the cab? What's your take on that Mike? Back to you K1 MDR because I have seen that where you think, okay, what is this guy doing? What's this woman doing? But then it turns out there's some issue with the truck, mechanical, electrical, you know, you just don't know. So could it be that that is what's happening? No, I'm not thinking so. This guy has been following him for a while. Sometimes I pass him, sometimes he passes me. His truck seems to be able to track on the road properly and if it can't, it has no business being on the road. I just honestly think this guy either doesn't know what he's doing or doesn't know where he's at and it could be both. He does have his hitching lights on which are really bright and right in your eyes when you get up next to him. So he hasn't turned those off and he's just pulling a container to the port and he likes moving off to the right. He wants to get into the merging lane where he has no business in the merging lane. He wants to also ride on the shoulder where he has no business riding on the shoulder. I have a feeling the guy just doesn't know what's going on. He's probably distracted in the cab which is highly dangerous when you're pulling a truck that's four to five times larger than everything else on the road. Anyway, back to the net.

Anyways on that wild semi driver stuff, you know, this road rage, boy it's crazy out there. You got to be careful. I don't even like going in traffic because it's like, it's risky business anymore, you know. I saw this video short on YouTube over the weekend of a road rage incident where a guy got out of his vehicle and walked back to the vehicle behind him and punched the driver and the driver who got punched called the police. Turns out this guy was an off duty police officer and was cited for the whatever you call that when you strike someone legally. I don't know what the term is but crazy, crazy world out there.

Jack, you'll never guess where I am. Ah nah, I'll tell you, it'll take too long. I'm over here at Cloud City Coffee, just northwest of Maple Leaf Reservoir. I rolled by there just as you were talking about it and I was like ah yes, it is there. Jack I can report to you that Maple Leaf Reservoir and Maple Leaf Park, well Maple Leaf Park is still there. Presumably the reservoir underneath it is there as well. So I know you were waiting with bated breath on that report, so there you go. Business taken care of. Ah yeah, Cloud City Coffee is one of my favorite coffee shops up here in Maple. Just a little afternoon something something. And yes, I agree with Matt, UES. You know as somebody who drives daily for their job, I have been noticing, especially in the last few months, this has gotten a little crazy, a little insane in the membrane. People getting more brazen and a little more ragey. I'm talking from all quarters. Not just drivers, but the cyclists too and the pedestrians. So I think as a certain city agency likes to say, flow the flock down. Calm the flock down, I say. So there's that. Also yes, I still because the van is in the shop, in the fleet shop for repairs. So I'm still driving that DZ4 and I'm getting a little attached to it Jack. It's a hot little car. It's an EV, meaning not electric vehicle, but electric Vixen.

I've got a couple of these Lenovo P90 laptops which I really, really, really like. A little on the heavy side, but they do everything. Work class type computers with lots of memory and all that kind of good stuff. But I did a search the other day. Is this a P50? Is it working on Windows 11? Nope. It doesn't have the stupid little security chip that they demand. So I've got half a dozen computers here that I guess will be obsolete. And I'll just limp along with Windows 10. However long that will last. And if that stops, I guess maybe I'll switch to Linux or something. I don't know. Very frustrating. Yep, I got tired of the prompts, the updates. Oh, AI over here.

And yeah, he obviously came from the Isle of Aran and Aran wool and it was kind of thick, hunky wool and everything else and made some wonderful warm, warm jumpers for the winter and all different patterns and everything else. What you described is very similar. The wool that Helen's working with just now is several times thicker. It's really, really thick wool. Yeah, and it's growing awful quick but you don't use needles or anything else. It's just all by the fingers. It's hand knitting. So no needles whatsoever. It's just weaving away with the fingers there and doing this. So she learned all about it on the Internet a couple of weeks ago and today's her first go. But you know, Helen's always the same with all these different crafts here Jack. You know she does all the research. Once she starts it she becomes an expert straight away. Then gets bored and wants to go on to something else. We'll have one blanket. I don't think we'll have another. Hi, hi. Back to you sir.

We encourage you to press the button to tell us about yourself, your radio projects, whatever is on your mind, as long as it is suitable for a general audience. Please limit your reports to three minutes so we can get as many stations in as possible. This is also when the repeater times out automatically, whether you're done talking or not.

Wow, I'm sad to hear about Charlie, although probably not surprised. He'll be missed. I will miss his... This is KC2STO. Kilo, Charlie 2, Sierra, Tango, Oscar, Charlie in New Jersey and that slow deliberate voice of his. He will be missed. So first of all, I didn't get my QRZ page updated so I'm just going to give the answer to last night's riddle. So the question is, or so the riddle is, I have a friend who is much younger than I am and I wanted to know how old she was and she got coy about it. She said, well, I'm one more than a square and one less than a cube. And I'm sitting here thinking, how old does that mean you are? The answer is that she's 26. 25 is 5 squared and 23 is 3 cubed. And as far as I know, the only set of integers, 25, 26, 27, that works that way. Interestingly, I think that 25 is one of the early Pythagorean triples, 3, 4, and 5. 3 squared plus 4 squared equals 5 squared. So that's the other unique thing about 25. I worked at the gallery today. I played harp like a mad thing for about four and a half hours. For everybody's Christmas music pleasure. And then I went to the gallery meeting which just about made me so angry I wanted to jump off a cliff. And now here I am talking to all of you, which is much better. And so I guess that's basically all I have to say. 73, 33, 88. Thanks, Joan, for doing the net and for doing a beautiful job with the silent key ceremony. And thanks to all of you for listening. I love you all. This is KA9EHV back to net."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-11-03T21:13:12+00:00","id":74830,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":74829,"text":" Well, thank you, Ann.

Yes, Sean, I was going to go to a food bank on Wednesday but I've canned that so I can get to the Maple Leaf Park, a reservoir park and meet you in person finally. So yes, my plan is to get there. I'm going to hop my bike to the light rail, take the light rail to up there in that neighborhood and then do the last mile or two to get to the park and that will be fun.

But I just wanted to give a shout out there to Charlie Casey, two STO. I don't know if any, a lot of people may not know this about Charlie, but he was one of the first responders at 9-11. That's why his health was in such jeopardy all through his life. He sucked in some of that crap out of the, either, I don't know, north or south power. But anyway, yeah, that's what Charlie was battling all of his life. He was really a young guy and so 9-11 has now claimed another victim. I just wanted to give out a shout out to Charlie. Jane and I made a, Jane made, I helped her with a little bit, Katie's little bit, a quote for Charlie that he wanted to give to his mother for Christmas this year. And I really hope that whoever, maybe somebody back there in New Jersey is listening that has any connection with Charlie. But in place in Charlie's stuff is a present for his mother from Jane and me. So anyway, what I just wanted to say, I just, anyway, that's all. Anyway, 730's there, Joan. And I don't think that Jane and I are going to be able to make it on Wednesday. She has a meeting at 1230 so I think we're going to miss that one with Sean there from Australia.

I've got just a very brief one here. And just to let folks know that I'm using a ISU-8 mate to get a hold of G4 and use that as a repeat back of the main unit. I've been active for a few years but really have not been active at all. I was first licensed back about 60 years ago, 70 years as a matter of fact, back around 52 I believe is when I first got my hand licensed. But some days a few years and then anyway it's good to hear everybody chit-chatting and I like to do that but I don't know enough of the guys well enough yet to chit-chat. So I don't chat too much. Anyway, I lose my breath if I chit-chat. And back to the next control, I'm listening but I don't talk too much. This is 39LVC Frank in Bothell. This is repeater station kilo kilo 7 November Quebec November. Well Frank at least you're living and you've set me to eat. I've only been a ham radio operator for 55 years. So yes, I was just a little kid when you were a ham radio operator. So you might think you were a ham radio operator before I was even born. Although I was born long enough ago to be perhaps like you from the atomic age, not a child of this age because Sputnik had not been launched yet. Anyway Frank, I have written down sub-repeater. Is there any particular formal name for that where you repeat two of your transmitters that's getting into the repeater? And I thought why not call it like a sub-repeater or like a second tier repeater or something. Think of coming second or something clever. Alrighty, so now comes where I get to ask for Klay G4 OZW, OzWizard, Klay, and Reichi. And I've also put an I O from KG4WYJ, Brian, who did an I O I guess you could say from our family chat, PatNet.

It's too bad to hear about what happened to him from September 11th. Yeah, good to hear Sean as an RF station. Heard him on before the net, I almost came back to him. But somebody else beat me, just getting ready to take the sky out for a walk. And so I did that, so I missed most of that. But I didn't need my light. It's dark out but it's darn near full moon. I think the full moon is on the 5th, so we're a day to two days away from a full moon. And it was overhead and the sky is clear and I was able to see quite well without using my light. So I saved my battery and had a nice walk up to the mailbox, which is a mile away. But what is that, half kilometer? Anyway, there's something I'm forgetting. I was going to say, there was something about the show I was going to mention but I can't think of what it is right now. But I guess I just let it go at that. I hate it when I need to write things down. Bad, bad, bad play. But we'll let it go at that and very good that Brian checked in and we'll talk to everyone later in 7.3.

Of course, on Saturday, November 8th, as usual, the Radio Club of Tacoma hosts their open house from 10 in the morning to a couple hours in the afternoon. And club members and their guests, hams, and all visitors interested in amateur radio. I've been to a couple of them folks. They're a good get-together.

But that's the Radio Club of Tacoma. You know, be there or be square. Or be there and be square, too. I mean, it's OK to be square. Also, Saturday, November 8 is the next PSRG Educational Meeting. Meeting, meeting. And that's at 1330, 1.30 PM on Zoom. And there is already a hot link. I can read this off of the laptop here. The November PSRG Educational Meeting is Saturday, November 8. The topic is amateur radio in space. Space, space, space. Operating ham radio satellites in the International Space Station. How to work ham radio satellites using modest equipment with an emphasis on operating the ISS. Access to onboard repeater, APRS digipeter, and speaking with crew members will be covered along with satellite operating fundamentals. And of course, what equipment to use. If you ever wanted to operate ham satellites but thought it's too expensive and too complicated, you should be wrong. Some people put a lot of money into it, but you don't need to necessarily. There are ways to work the ISS especially that are very easy. Crossband repeater, where you transmit on one band and receive on another band. And that's a trick to that and some special antennas. But it's all within reach.

Oh yes, this is the new announcement. 22nd and 23rd of November is the Repeater Roundabout. A weekend long event held on many of your local repeaters. We're talking many, many. The goal is to meet new people and work repeaters you might not usually key up. It's also a great way to get started with ham radio contests for folk who are primarily repeater users. Light up the airwaves and make some noise on the great repeaters in West Washington and Idaho. Anyone with a ham radio license can participate. This is a friendly, collaborative event for all FM users on VHF and UHF. And guess what's happening in December? Christmas!

Usually Monday nights or Thursday mornings. Tonight is no exception. I've been super busy and I'll be up another couple of hours working. But also your nets are sometimes a little tough to get into so I feel privileged, yes indeed privileged that I get to get in and check in on your net. Getting a little cold out there. I cut some firewood for my friend that lives in a van and she called and was complaining that it makes too much smoke. So now I'm going to cut some wood that won't be making smoke just some lumber yard fur that I know will not be smoking. So otherwise it will be a cold night because it's getting cold out there. Anyway, that among many other problems that life possesses for me and I guess that makes my life pretty good compared to a bunch of people's lives. So I don't know, hey is everyone voted? I got to turn in my ballot tomorrow. Too late for mailing in, it will be a drop box. Anyway, everyone is having a good week so far. Joan, back to you.

I did a PM on a train today, worked on some doors and some other little bits and pieces of the train, and turned it over to the next crew that gets to play with it after I'm gone. And maybe there will be a little left to fix tomorrow when I get back, hopefully not. Hopefully they took care of everything, but you never know. Anyway, my critter report. So my little furry terrors are all ready for their new homes. If anybody wants a kitten, look me up on QRZ and send me an email. I have eight adorable furry little terrors. They are ten weeks old. This Thursday they'll be ten weeks old. And they are litter box trained. They are adorable. They eat solid foods and everything else, just like a kitten of ten weeks old should. And I haven't gotten them all counter trained yet. I'm working on that. They still will find a way to get up on the counters. They are getting better about not, which is the goal. So far the hits of the water bottle have been puffed their fur up, which is absolutely hilarious watching them do that. These guys have yet to start playing with the water bottle. Now I did have a cat that thought the water bottle was a new toy. Did not care about getting wet, loved getting sprayed, and liked playing with it. So using it as a method of discipline didn't work. It didn't work at all. It was play time for him. But he's not with us anymore. And as much as I would love to keep all eight of these little fur balls, I've got to let him go. I have too many cats as it is. Anyway, that's all I've got for tonight.

They're litter trained, not all counter trained and it's hard that you know that you had the one kitten that loved to play in the water and spraying was not a discipline but a joy. It just proves that that even little kittens have complex enough brains that they have personalities. You know, lizards and snakes don't have much personality. Mammals have a lot of personality and we're mammals. I guess we have personalities too. What do you know? So anyway, thank you very much for that mic. I enjoy your announcements of your little furry terrors. And that you work on trains for a living. That's fun. Yeah, my brother Mark is a train lover. We all have life trains in my family. In fact, one of our grandpas actually worked for a railroad in Michigan. But that's another story. I'll tell you someday. Talk about my grandpa and and talk about trains.

But we can all think of his stories up here in our head and keep them in our heart, and, um, I guess that's the best way for me to put it. I was wondering why I hadn't heard from him for a while now, I know why. Um, the one package I had did come today, but it was a barrel of laughs trying to, um, figure out how to, uh, get it to hook up. And I finally managed it. It will hook up to the computer, laptop, and of course the Android phone, and I think it's, um, um, and, uh, iPhones, I believe, that it can also hook up to as long as it has the Type-C, um, jack hole for that. And, uh, so there's this group of squinchy little devices that I ended up in box with, as well as the, um, the USB cord. It works, and, um, so I'm playing with that yet. It can be used for something, so that's good. It won't work on the TV, though, that well. Um, no information for it to work on the TV.

I don't want to get into politics on the net, but I do have a friend who is running for something. And it's been fun to see that from that side.

I think Graham Greenwood called them entertainment instead of sounding serious sounding like a spy novel or Whatever anyway, and it was fun because the protagonist in In basket case is a journalist so it's kind of almost autobiographical Anyway, so I've got journalism on my brain lately been because I've been reading all this Carl Hiaasen but I even have a volume of his His first of three volumes of his columns so like they're like collected essays and it's the same sardonic tone he's an environmentalist and and the political columnist and and I miss the days of Civil political conversations.

Lovely Monday evening. I don't know, I just really love this time of year. This is my season. Cold weather, the changing leaves. To quote one of my favorite poems by Henry Rollins, the poem called I Know You, the changing seasons are true friends. And I remember, oh my gosh, it's been 13, almost 14 years now since the person who is my current wife moved in with me on our small, really tiny little apartment on Capitol Hill. And I had a fireplace and it was fall and I made a fire for her. And she laid in front of the fire with a blanket and she was reading a book and a hot coal jumped out of the fire and hit the blanket and caught her on fire. And she didn't even notice, but she was on fire and I put her out. And I don't know, I will always remember that because we still have the blanket. It has a giant burned hole in it and I was like, that's the blanket. Anyway, I was outside a couple of minutes ago and it was a beautiful smell of cold fall evening. And somebody has a fireplace going, I think it's probably our neighbors next door, wood smoke in the air. It's just lovely. And oh yes, and good for you, Joan, for getting off of Facebook. That is an accomplishment that is hard to quit. It's kind of like smoking. It might actually be worse than smoking.

So I officially turned on the heat this month, finally. I can turn on a little heater on it, but I modified it so the flickering fire visual effect looks more realistic. I just turned off my bright lights and I'm down to mood lighting, which I love at this time of night. In honor of that woman who was caught on fire as she curled by the fire, I have turned on the visual effect. It looks like a small heater stove over there with the flickering fire. This is the season for the fireplace. The fireplace partially embodies the soul, the spirit of autumn. I don't know why it's my favorite season. You think, well, there's so many seasons that have more to offer. Summer is teeming with life. It's also too hot part of the time. It's nice. I like all of the seasons, I guess. But there's something, some kind of wistful kind of mood happens in the autumn.

I think we need about ten to get through the winter But yeah It officially felt like fireplace around here now It's even like 85 degrees in the house. It's not quite cold enough for a wood stove So it's a time for the strategic window opening But yeah That timing here is a round It also means that I get to do more indoor projects There's a Added another kind of fun project.

Yes, well, I don't have a wood stove now. If I had a real wood stove, I would be violating my lease. Don't think that I haven't thought about it, though. How could I do this? This little smile, like papoose. And my grandpa had a papoose stove, an ice fishing, shanty-sized stove. Little tiny, like, bright little teeny tiny chimney and everything. Like, I just put it in the corner, and open the window, and put the chimney out of the window. It wouldn't last long here if I did that. Don't think I haven't thought about it, though. So I'm content with the visual effect of a fire. I even rewired the two light bulbs in series. So they're two, instead of, it was too bright, unrealistically bright. These are two, either 25 or 40 watt incandescent bulbs in there. And it was unrealistically bright looking. So when I modified the reflecting material inside of there to make it more randomized and more realistic I also rewired the two bulbs in series. So at half voltage, they're 1 fourth power. So a 40 watt light bulb becomes a 10 watt light bulb. Or I think they're 25 watt. So they are now like 6 and 1 half, or 6 and 1 quarter watt bulbs, which might seem pretty dim. But it's the visual effect of just a gentle gas, like the vaporizing wood smoke, the wood gas coming off and burning lightly and kind of dimly, how it is when you've got it backed off."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-11-03T22:25:53+00:00","id":74890,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":74889,"text":" And it was just too bright.

Of course, it also means I have to turn off the brighter lights and go down to mood lighting, which I like to do anyway because I used to live off the grid with Aladdin mantle lamps and gas lights and even one place, one cabin I rented for $40 a month in the Upper Peninsula off the grid. I just had a couple of primitive kerosene wick lanterns. One was a Deets number 8 storm lantern. The other was a regular kind that people used to bring out when the power went off. And I loved it. The flickering of the flame and the dim lights. And the windows are open because the wood stove does give off too much heat in this weather and you have to leave the windows open because it gets too hot otherwise. Take care, Hunter.

I just got my like 12th COVID vaccine booster thingy or whatever, and yet I never got the shingles shot because I had shingles twice in my life. And I thought, you know, what's the chances? As long as I don't get it on my face, I don't really care if I get it again. What's the chances? Well, in April, I got it again on my face. So, a couple days later, I couldn't get to the doctor because he wasn't there, so I got his Zoom call, people, and the doctor gets on the line and looks at me and goes, oh, you got a bad case of shingles there. I said, yes, please. I need some antiviral, please. It's near my eye. He goes, yep. In fact, my eye was swollen shut. So, he said, if this thing moves down past your nose or down towards your nose, you got to go to the eye doctor right away. So, I give you the antiviral. So, I got that and it took months. I mean, it cleared up relatively quickly, a couple of weeks, you know, the lesions started to go away, my eye was starting to open up and all that. But it's been, I've had like the neurology or whatever on my face for a long time, and it's like, oh my God, I finally went to the doctor just recently and he said, well, yeah, you can get another shingle, you can get a shingle shot if you want by now, but it took a long time. Lucky I didn't lose my eyesight, but I'm still not 100% on my eyesight. So, who knows what's going to happen there. Let's see, what else? I'm on for two minutes. I have to watch the counter.

Oh, what I wanted to say is what was interesting for me lately is, you know, I like tonight I made my partner, she likes ravioli so I don't, I can make ravioli, actually the ravioli pillows but I don't because I can get them and they're pretty good just the pillows, I mean, you know, but it's like sign in or something like that, you know, it's not the noodles, most of the noodles are the same, it's the, it's the broth, you know, so anyhow so I made her some ravioli, you know, I had concocted that from scratch and then I thought, she goes, aren't you going to have any? I said, nope, I'm going to make chili. So I made chili and the reason I mention that is because, chili con carne, no beans, Texas style, Tex-Mex stuff, you know, and I said, I thought, you know, instead of using brown sugar or agave or something like that because sometimes they sweeten it up to get rid of some of the sharpness, I thought, you know, I just got this bottle from somebody of a maple syrup from, from Ohio, I didn't know that they had maple trees in Ohio, you would ask me about where they make it in the United States, I would have said, Connecticut, Vermont, you know, New Hampshire, I guess, I didn't know they had but Ohio has a big maple syrup, you know, contingency, right? So anyhow, he sent me this bottle of it and I'm thinking, I wonder if he's tasted, no, he didn't taste it or whatever, okay, so I'll try it and see, I tried this thing without anything just, you know, in my finger, on my finger, it was delicious. So then I had it the next day and some French toast I made and it was better and I thought, oh, I'm going to try this a little tiny bit because I put a little tiny bit of sugar in the chili, little tiny bit. So I ended up putting on, putting that in the chili and it was marvelous. I mean, just a little bit but that's all it took to cut some of the, some of the acid, you know, so it was delicious. I learned a lot. I learned that, you know, Ohio has lots of maple trees. The good thing about this one is it helps the Boy Scouts. It's a thing, I think it's called Boy, oh, Scout something or whatever, you know, maple syrup. It's actually a big maple, a sugar maple farm they have. They send it off to a sugar house to do, they don't do their own cooking but they collect it from this place and like $5 out of every $12 bottle goes to the Boy Scouts so I guess that's a good thing. I don't have a problem with that. So, see what else? Did I get everything off my list? That was for my 70th birthday by the way. Can you believe that? The trees don't live that long but anyhow. And that was it. So that's my report for the night and I hope you're doing well. I hope to be on here more now that my eyes are getting a little better and I can see without problems so.

Yeah, I was an opticalman, an optics technician. And there are also, I think, when I was in the Navy in the 80s, there was also a rating called instrumentman. But if you were a calibration technician, you may have been an instrumentman or longer ago than they have been. Those ratings don't even exist anymore, by the way.

Oh, I remember shingles. You know, a friend of mine, Bob, another Bob, that was just talking to him today down in our lobby. I live in senior housing. And he's got shingles. And I said, you didn't get your shingles vaccination? And he said, no. I said, well, now you're paying the price. You've got shingles. I had shingles so bad in my 40s, I believe, that the physician asked, got me to sign off on her taking some photographs for medical photographs for education. And believe it or not, I found a book that had the photograph. I recognized my own back in the photograph. Oh my God. I didn't tell anyone that it was me. But I recognized my own back. It was a classic case. It's such a bad case of it. My entire back was just, it was horrible. And so after they got to the improved shingles vaccination, I got both at the VA hospital. And I'm glad I did. My other friend Bob, who lives with me in this building, he didn't get the shingles vaccination. Maybe some similar reasoning that you had. And why would you even want to risk the possibility of getting shingles? But I'm glad you still have your eyesight and that you've finally gotten over it. And I'm glad you're back on air.
