There's a huge increase from week to week, but there is an increase each week. And it's slowly, slowly getting closer to that magic number, 100,000 objects. And once you get to 100,000 objects, that's constituting a saturation point for satellites going up.

And the red giant star, it's expanding. And it's going through its death throes. And as it does so, its atmosphere expands and contracts and expands. And this little dense white dwarf that's nearby just has enough gravitational effect to be able to pull some of this material off the outer shell of the star towards it. And this material comes swooping in and swirls around on the star. It comes down onto its surface. And after it accumulates enough of this, it ignites. It goes into a thermal nuclear ignition, and it flares up. And so this is what happens with this nova. The star will suddenly brighten and should be able to see it make an eye. So the predictions are now that it may not be happening until 2027. But get yourself a star map. Go outside from time to time and just take a look up. What do you need binoculars for?

Nothing except your spacesuit separates you from the vacuum of space. As you look towards the star field in front of you, there is nothing but darkness. No stars, no light, just complete darkness. And it's here that you realize a black hole is very close because nothing can escape, including light.

The black hole of gravity will have a hold on you forever. Falling into the black hole, it's not like parachuting on Earth. On Earth you fall, you feel the rush of air as it passes, and the flapping of your clothes. In a black hole, there is nowhere. All you feel is the inside of your space suit and possibly the thudding of your heart from adrenaline. The larger the black hole, the longer you survive. Falling past a super-dark black hole's surface, the event horizon, is initially painless. But in a few hours, your life will come to a grisly end.

Wormholes, as opposed to white holes. Wormholes, it's a region of space that's able to connect two areas of space, two regions of space-time together, resulting in some very short distances between two. If you could create a wormhole by bending it from space-time, you could theoretically travel across one end of the universe to the other in a much shorter period of time. You wouldn't be travelling necessarily a linear distance at that point, like you would from point A to point B, driving a straight line. A wormhole would actually curve that area of space where point A and point B are now not separated by a distance of, let's say, 10 miles. But now the space-time is being compressed and curved, and so those two points A and B are now within inches away. So that is basically how a wormhole works, what a wormhole is. A white hole is a little bit different. This is sort of the opposite, or the good twin, you might call it, of a black hole. Instead of sucking matter in from the universe, it actually sticks it out. And some theory that a white hole might connect a black hole to a... a wormhole may connect a black hole to a white hole, and therefore information gets spewed back out into the universe. All right, so let's get into this one."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-11-08T19:08:49+00:00","id":77093,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":77092,"text":" And no one knows, no one knows with any certainty at all what's inside of a black hole.

So discovering this long, stable, caterpillar wormhole could be really problematic for a conflict in physics called the firewall paradox. And a few theories say that a black hole interior should not be smooth or stable. It should cause space time to be violently broken at the black hole's edge. It should be called the firewall. But it's interesting. It's interesting that they took these computer simulations and proved mathematically that it's very possible that you could have two black holes paired together by a wormhole. And that also goes into accordance with thinking, too. There's theoretical evidence out there that suggests that a black hole might be paired to a white hole by means of a wormhole as well. Again, this is all theoretical. No one actually has any real physical evidence for this. There's nothing that says this can't happen.

Our heading scores a doom loop dipping point or points. We could be on a path of unavoidable tipping points that result in total chaos for our environmental systems. And these tipping points are defined as thresholds within key Earth systems beyond which changes to the environment might be irreversible. The most important ones are polar ice sheet collapse, permafrost thawing, which is happening now. That releases CO2 and methane and forced dieback. And once the tipping points are passed, there's a cascade of system failures will likely occur. Humans, we're releasing huge amounts of CO2 and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere continually. And these gases trap heat and increase average global temperatures, burning of coal, natural gas, oil, all contributing to the system. The warming will eventually enhance the disruption of natural processes, adding to the rate which Earth heats up. And as the oceans warm, they will be less able to absorb CO2.

There's a 2024 study and that came out in Penas. Penas has the proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences indicating that thawing of permafrost dictates the flow of water. The melting could produce formation and expansion of oxygen which then would release more CO2. The Arctic is experiencing a supercharging of climate change where temperatures are increasing four times faster than the rest of the world and this is called the Arctic amplification. Just dropping. This is repeater station kilo kilo seven. As more ice melts, the region absorbs more sunlight and this was written up in, there's a report written up in the International Science Council. An ice sheet loss in Greenland and with Antarctic has accelerated since the 1990s. More melting means higher sea levels and this impacts coastal communities. No one knows how much more warming the ice sheets can endure before passing a tipping point of no return. The Paris agreement wants to keep global warming below 1.5 degrees Celsius, 2.7 degrees Fahrenheit and well below 2 degrees Celsius, 3.6 degrees Fahrenheit. 1.5 degrees Celsius, 2.7 degrees Fahrenheit might be too high for the ice sheets to be able to maintain themselves."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-11-08T19:17:20+00:00","id":77105,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":77104,"text":" And the Amazon rainforest, this is another area of big concern.

And the reason that the fact we see no evidence of alien civilization just forms the basis of the Fermi-Hart paradox, in that if there's so many aliens out there, they've had time to reproduce and travel all through the solar system or through the galaxy, and if they were around longer than we've been here, then why aren't we seeing them?

They fight wars, maybe a version of a nuclear war, or they out-populate the resource capacity of their planet. So there are a whole host of reasons why they wipe themselves out. But what it comes down to is that a civilization gets to a point in its evolution where it is not careful, it ends up wiping itself out. And that also plays into another aspect of that same argument, that some civilizations, they may have got to the point where they're evolving, they realize that if they evolve too much further, they end up wiping themselves out. So therefore they stop. They stop their technological evolution at some point.

So that's all the space there. And Stephen Hawking, when you were talking there, made me think about Stephen Hawking when he was addressing this too. And some of these radio transmissions are intentional.

I'm a bit more of an optimist on that, and I'd like to think or at least believe that something that, someone out there that's much more advanced than us, those intentions would probably not exist in the way they deal with each other and other species.

This is Ka-90HV. Well, let's see. I did a wee bit of writing today. There's certain key scenes in this wretched book that's eating my breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, and all the rest of my food that have to be gotten correctly. And if you're dictating them, it's awfully hard to revise them without starting them completely over. But as you go through them, you get better at them. So I think I may have finally gotten this one. Once I get it, I just don't ever look at it again until you put it in with the rest of the book and then etc. And so that's fine. I want to write one more before I go to bed tonight. The play on KUOW is not something I want to listen to. Get a little bit of harp playing. Scales, gosh, about half an hour or more worth of scales and pattern studies that I run just to warm up. Getting old, can't play cold anymore. Anyway, that's about it actually. Maybe someday I'll come in with an actual radio project. That would be revelatory. Anyway, 733388. Thanks, Bill, for running the net. It's always good to hear you. And thanks to all the rest of you for listening to me ramble on. You're all great. I love you. This is KA9EHV back to net. KA9EHV, K7WFB. Well, thank you, Anne. Thanks for stopping by. Always interested in how your writing is going. And yeah, you mentioned that play they have on KOW. You know, I used to listen to that so much and it just fell off my radar. I think it starts at 10 and it's from that LA theater group, whatever they call it, and they do plays. So if anybody out there hasn't tried it, it's really nice. Plus you can grab it off the web too after the fact, like a podcast. But they do really nice things, very full produced plays. Thanks for reminding me of that, Anne. Let's drop down the list and talk to K9BDC, Brooks, who so ably led the education session today. Thanks, thanks to do that, Brooks, and thanks for helping me out with that satellite capable radio you have. Come on, Brooks. This is repeater station Kilo Kilo 7. Well, good evening there, Bill and everyone. I'm K9BDC, Brooks, here in Newcastle. You are very welcome there, Bill. Yeah, that motion radio, KGQ10H is a pretty good radio. Anyway, let's see. Yeah, today was a nice beautiful day outside. We are still without internet here. Thursday night, a truck of some sort. I think I know what truck it was, but I'm not positive. But I took out our overhead internet line that runs from the telephone pole across the street to our house. So we've been out of internet since then. And I did get a text message this afternoon saying that my waitlist appointment for 9 a.m. tomorrow was confirmed. So hopefully Xfinity will be here with their bucket truck to run a new line across the street for us. I was able to get the Starlink out today and test it out. I got it a few weeks ago and haven't really used it much because the point was to bring it in the trailer. And with winter coming up, I haven't had a lot of opportunities yet to try it. So I was able to get that set up and attend the educational meeting today. So yeah, that worked out really well. So I was coming across the satellites as the presentation was about ham radio and satellites and more specifically the ISS. So yeah, Mike, KVABNY gave that presentation. It was a really good presentation. We will get it up on the psrg.com website in the educational section in the next coming days. So with that, let's see what came next. I did some chores around the house. Megan and I went out to dinner and now we're just kind of hanging out here and been listening to the net. I checked into the SimplexNet. That was good. I actually did a relay for someone. That's the first time I've done that on the SimplexNet, so that was kind of fun. Anyway, thanks for doing the net, Bill. 7-3, everyone. K9. Oh, actually, you know what? Before I do that, can you please mark Megan down as an IO? K9 MLR. She is getting ready, I think, for bed or at least to crawl into bed and read a book. So she sends radio waves. K9 BBC, back to that. And radio waves back to Megan. We have her logged in as an IO. Just a quick question for you, Brooks. You know, you were, I mean, that's pretty nicely. I had Starlink when the truck took out your Xfinity internet. So you, I mean, I saw you on the Zoom, of course. So you were streaming video and did everything work just smooth as can be? Those satellites were just flying by and everything was just, did it work real steady like a regular wired line? Thank you."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-11-08T21:13:25+00:00","id":77211,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":77210,"text":" Yeah, you know Bill, it worked pretty well. I did have occasional dropouts in a few seconds, I would say. Probably in the meeting there were maybe three or four times on my end where the audio quit for a second or maybe five seconds. But I think that might be because I have some tall trees. I'm supposed to point the Starlink mini that I have pointed north, and it did report to me that there were some obstructions. I kind of had it pointed between two trees. Because of the way that the satellites go across the sky, I believe, I think the satellite it is reading from falls behind the tree before the next satellite pops out between the next tree and it's just enough time for it to sort of pause there for a second. It was not super noticeable. So I would say as a backup source of Internet, it worked quite well. K9-BDZ. K9-BDZ, K7-WFB. Well, thank you, Brooks. That's really interesting. I'm quite impressed that you were the official layout. That's pretty cool that you could check in over Starlink. Great to know. Very good. Let's drop down now and chat with my neighbor, Jeff. Nice having lunch with you today.

I'm doing real well. This is Jeff, W60HM in Queen Anne. It was really great to see you the other day. Let's see. So far I've had a pretty busy weekend. This morning I went to a car show in Magnolia, the first of what I think is going to be a series of cars and coffee events in Magnolia in I guess what's called Salmon Bay. I'm not from here and I still struggle, especially with the names of all the waterways, but I think it's called the Salmon Bay Cars and Coffee. So I fired up the Sunbeam this morning and I think when I left the garage here it was in the high 40s and the car was still stone cold, as was I when I arrived in Magnolia because as you know it's mostly downhill. I could have rolled probably about halfway there if not more. But I had a great time at the car show and then I headed up to Green Lake and met up with a friend who I hadn't seen in a very long time and was able to catch up. So that took most of the afternoon. But enjoying the sunshine and dry weather today and just a good start to the weekend. So back to you Bill. Thanks for hosting the net. This is Jeff in Queen Anne W60HM. Bill Nye W60HM K7 WFD. I don't know why I put you down as W9 just for fun. Well it sounds like a great day and that Sunday Malpine is the perfect thing to run around in on a beautiful sunny November day except the fact that it's cold. But that's a lovely car and that must have been a great time over there at Salmon Bay over by the Fisherman's Circle I guess. Very good. Thanks Jeff. Love hearing from you.

I mean, the boxes sound great. That's cool. I'm also impressed. How do you make a knife? I mean, is this just forging something and grinding it down? How do you do that? Back to you. Sorry, I kill a Mike 7 off a Yankee Delta. I used to do that, but then when your shoulders go away, I just buy blanks from a knife blade supplier in Texas and another one over in Tennessee. Really good steel. I can get different types. I can get Damascus steel, which is really a pretty steel. But if it's going to be a working knife, I use 440C surgical stainless steel. It takes an edge. It just keeps it there. And then I make the furniture for it, the handles, and I use mostly Sonora Desert ironwood. It's an absolutely beautiful wood. Then I'll do some inlays with some acrylic, some ivory, which I'm legal to do, brass, nickel silver. This is for Peter Station Kilo Kilo 7, November, November. I shape them for my clients in Hampton. And then I make a sheet for it. Different kinds of sheets. I make a cross draw, I make a cowboy, I make a traditional hunter. And they're all unique too. I like every part of it. I like working the steel, I like working the wood, I like working the leather. It kind of depends on which I'm working at when you walk into my shop. Sometimes it smells like a leather shop, which everybody seems to like.

Because it's there, and two, my desk looks like a mess, so I'm trying to clean it up. I managed to fix two of the menu items in the little mini, but however, I cannot figure out where the out going is in the menu to fix that for the mini that I got. So, I'm running into that problem because the menu is not something I'm quite used to seeing it reworded different a little compared to the other radio I have. Other than that, I am doing fine. I hope everybody else is as well, and boy, I hope everybody went and bounced outside in the sun while we had it because it was certainly bright. Other than that, I don't have much else to report except that I'm still alive and my sense of humor has no license, yet I do. KJ7EXM, back to Ned. Your sense of humor has no license. I'm not sure I quite understand, but it's memorable. Well, that's great. Yeah, menus. Menus on these radios, they'll make you crazy because they're all different. You know, I had that thing, that little one-watt gizmo I had that ran off the Android KV4P, that little transceiver project, and it all comes up on your Android phone, which you know how to work in Android, if you have an Android phone. You know how to use your phone, and the menu is all there. It makes sense. I think all radios should have Bluetooth over your phone, and then you just have standardized menus, and everything would work so nicely someday, and it may happen someday, I guess. Thank you, Sean.

And Skype worked really well. And then somewhere along the line, Microsoft bought Skype and they didn't screw it up too much. It made a couple of changes, but it still basically functioned the way it had and cost, I don't think they changed the pricing any, couple of cents a minute in most places. So if I was in China, I could call any place and if I'm here, I can call any place and it's just pretty flexible. And then it was about, I don't know, maybe 6 months or so ago that Microsoft announced they were going to be ending Skype and they officially ended it, I don't know if it was May or June or something like that. So I got an alternative. I ended up looking at all the alternatives and went with Google Voice, which has worked pretty well. I haven't tried it for making any calls from an international location, but it should work. So far that works really well for about the same price, 2 cents a minute in most places. So Skype's deactivated and I just got an email today, Hi Timothy, Skype, reactivate your credit. Your Skype credit is now inactive. We've noticed you haven't used any Skype credit in 180 days. Okay, so it's true, I left some money in the account because I didn't know how to take it out of the account and it was like, you know, I probably had $5 in there or something, so it's like not a big deal. But what I don't understand is if it's been deactivated and not supported anymore, then why am I getting emails about reactivate your credit? I don't get it and I don't really care. Another screwy thing that Microsoft does. Anyway, hey, it's a beautiful night out. I'm out here to put a little charge in my car for 21 cents a kilowatt hour at one of the Seattle charging stations. This one is in, I guess it's North Seattle, right by the Town and Country, no, no, this would be in Shoreline. Shoreline, Aurora, Town and Country store, they've got four stations here and 21 cents a minute between like at night and same on Sunday. Same rate, about 21 cents a megawatt. Anyway, it's a nice night to be anyplace. And I think tomorrow is supposed to be another beautiful day, so get the heck out there and enjoy. KI7ZEI. Get the heck out there is right. Don't miss a moment of good weather in November because you don't get a lot of it. Yeah, you know, I went through that Skype thing myself and yeah, I put some, they moved it to something else. It's like Skype exists or something like Skype exists. I don't know because I haven't used it on top. But yeah, I moved my credit over there. And I also use Google Voice, by the way, and that's been a good service. I also, for cell service, I have T-Mobile, which has this great plan when you go over, when you go to Europe or something, you can make, it works over there real well. You don't have to buy an extra SIM card. And it's 10 cents a minute to call around the country or back to the US or anywhere you call is 10 cents a minute, which seems at least rational. The other day, my wife called her cousin in Switzerland, she didn't call very much, and she was on it for two minutes. They were set up at the Zoom call. They were in for two minutes and it was $3 a minute. So T-Mobile gives me 10 cents a minute when I'm over in Switzerland, but it's three bucks a minute to call Switzerland from the US. I don't quite understand that. I don't know why they do that. Maybe they do it just because they can. That's probably the answer. I don't know. Anyway, enough complaining. Sorry about that.

Good seeing you, or actually I don't think I saw you, I heard you on the educational meeting today. I saw your box came up, but I think it was blank or it had a letter in it, or it had a B in it or something. But I don't think I actually saw you. That was a really good presentation. I think it was very well researched. And I made a comment about how throughout the presentation I would have these questions, and then Mike would go ahead and answer the questions. He covered, it was very thorough, he covered a lot of different things regarding satellites, amateur satellite communications, the ISS and all that. So I would recommend everyone who wasn't there go look it up on the PSRG website. I don't know if it is up there yet, but I know they are going to put it up there. Yeah, pretty good conversation about Skype and Google Voice and all that. Being the cheapskate that I am, I remember when Skype came out it was so great to be able to make long distance calls for free. I had this little USB phone. I would plug it into the USB port on my MacBook, and it looked like a little phone, and it even had a touch pad on it. That was probably like 2006 or something like that, almost like 20 years ago. Then Google Voice, I do have a Google Voice number, but it doesn't seem to work for certain services. Like I remember trying to sign up for Uber, and it didn't recognize it as a proper phone number. I think it is like a trunked, it's not actually my phone number even though I am the only one that uses it. But anyway, just a few weeks ago I got T-Mobile. I've mentioned this several times on the net. So it's Brooks, he mentioned his problem earlier with a truck hitting, had an accident and knocked down his line. But with T-Mobile I have this modem. It's basically like a 5G modem, and it works great. The bandwidth is like 200 megabits up and down. I've got that whole T-Mobile plan. I've got my phone. They gave me Apple TV, and they gave me Netflix. I guess I can use it. There is a GoGo Wi-Fi thing on when I fly now. Anyway, they roped me in. I got it at Costco. It took like 10 minutes to sign up for it, so I got rid of my Xfinity. Anyway, great net tonight. This is KG70DB. KG70DBK7WSB. Yeah, Dean, thank you. That educational meeting was really good. Anybody who has even a slight interest in fussing around with lights talking, using the ISS as a repeater, it was really good. The fellow Michael who presented, he just had a lot of experience and he just answered \u2013 we didn't have that much time for questions. During his initial presentation he just sort of went through the whole thing in a really matter-of-fact way, giving a lot of tips on experience. So if you have any interest, mark it down and check out that video when it comes out. Really quite good. Oh, and T-Mobile. Yeah, and I use Google Voice. My regular number is Google Voice. I found the services. It's really handy the way I use my phone and my computers, but I have had that problem. Uber does not like it. And there are three or four other outfits that will not accept the Google Voice number. I don't quite know why, but that's the way they do it. Very good, Dean. Thank you.

So I headed down there and just did the educational meeting on my phone, the Zoom on my phone, and it was mostly in my pocket of course, I turned the video and the audio off.

And by then I was sitting having something to eat at Ivar's at those outdoor tables where all the seagulls are and I was sitting there trying to ask a Zoom question on the phone and the seagulls are hassling me.

I am late to the net tonight my sister-in-law she was kind enough to get me over and offered a babysit. Watched the girls tonight and she is a super aunt so my girls love her and my wife and I were happy to take the opportunity to get out and have dinner and some drinks together so that was really fun. We went down in the Juanita Village area there is a new cocktail bar called Thirst Trap which I think is a pretty funny name. And yeah just had a really nice time just talking about life and what we want to do when we're retired and silly things like that. Yeah it was nice and the girls had a blast with their aunts and we all kind of visited for a while after my wife and I got back so that was really good. Today was a pretty productive day and it felt good it was beautiful outside. I took the opportunity to go out and clean up my raised beds kind of chop down all of the dead and decaying stuff and chop all that up and get it laid on top to kind of return back to the soil. And I'm already excited for the springtime and kind of getting back into the swing of getting grilling again so that'll be fun. I did that and I played bass guitar for a while today that was really fun I was just kind of in the mood to do that. I know John is up after me and I just have to say John I always enjoy the guitar reports so looking forward to hearing what songs you're working on. Yeah I think that's all I got going on. Hope everyone's well out there this is KK7QES back to net. KK7QES K7WFD well nice report Justin thank you so really it sounds really nice to have your sister-in-law come over and give you and your wife a chance to sneak down to the thirst trap. This is a funny name isn't it? And talk about retirement. Very good very good. Very nice let's move on now and talk more guitar with John. John come ahead."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-11-08T21:46:23+00:00","id":77232,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":77231,"text":" Well hello everybody this is John W7JSM. Yeah today turned out to be a really nice day. Spent some time outside. My wife was doing the hedge clippers. We have a butterfly bush and a couple other bushes. She was pruning them down a bit before winter and I was busy with the leaf blower. Both trying to blow leaves and trying to keep Finn from eating the leaf blower. Because I was blowing air on him and he did not like it. He was making it very clear that he didn't like it. So yeah that was fun. He's fun to tear around sometimes because he's 7 years old but he acts like he's 2 months old. And he's 90 pounds so it's entertaining. Anyway other than that I have been up in my radio slash music room today playing practicing guitar. And my new song that I'm working on. Let me let this drop a second. This is W7JSM returning. The new song that I'm working on is the song that inspired me when I was a teenager many years ago. And always inspired me to want to play guitar. And I you know last year I finally started and finally got into it. And today or Thursday when I went to my guitar lesson the new song that I am working on is Wish You Were Here from Pink Floyd. And that's the song that I heard many many years ago that inspired me to want to play guitar and now I'm learning how to play it. So really enjoying it. Also working on a couple Beatles songs. I Want to Hold Your Hand and Day Tripper. Day Tripper I've been working on for a while and I got it down for the most part. But I Want to Hold Your Hands also a new one. I'm working on and I'm just really enjoying it because it's all songs that I've always wanted to play. W7JSM. W7JSM K7WSB. That's great. You've come full circle with the Pink Floyd Wish You Were Here. Inspiring from inspiration to learning it. That must be very satisfying. And the Beatles Hold You I Want to Hold Your Hand. That is one of the really early ones. I think I kind of remember that in 1964. Somebody will come back and correct me I'm sure but I think that's one of the first big hits. Very good John. Thank you.

The reason I said my sense of humor has no license, because it really doesn't, and it was a joke, and I don't pull those too often on here because I try to make sure they're the clean ones I can put in. I'll do it because, yeah, it's the right thing to do. But I have the license. Maybe my sense of humor may not, but, you know, it was meant to be a joke. But I just thought I'd answer that. And, yeah, today was definitely one of those leaf-blowing days where people can get out and play in their yard and pile up leaves and hope that their cat, dog, or other critter from maybe the neighbors doesn't go into the pile and say, whoopee! Because, you know, critters, they love to do that. When I was a kid, I used to have fun playing in leaf piles until they finally said, no, we've got to play it safer. Then it was just fun just making a whole big mess out of a whole big pile with the rake and whatever else tool, such as a leaf blower. So there you go. I hope those of you who have leaf blowers are having mass amounts of fun. KJ7EXM, back in that. KJ7EXM, K7WFP. Yes, leaf blowers are fun for just blowing stuff around, blowing dogs around, blowing everything around, as long as they are electric. I hate those gas-powered ones that the commercial, you know, landscapers use because they are so noisy. But I think they're going to be \u2013 they have been banned as of, I don't know, this year or the year after. Can't come too soon. I hate that noise. Very good.

Because you hear of calls here in BC, but you don't hear of it usually from the Food Administration. Like okay, in some of the parks, and I'm not positive which ones, I don't live here explicitly to say so. I'm a visitor still, but in some of the parks they do calls on coyotes and cougars and that, right? But that's different.

If there's 200 hostages, either the guy's a bad shot or something, but boy, you know, do the math, you know. It's almost like he's gonna shoot the thing. Pulls out his revolver and shoots it six times or something. I don't know. Something's not adding up why it took so many bullets to kill these things.

And I guess maybe it takes more, probably takes a little bit to take each of them down just because they're like big things. They're like anything from seven feet to nine feet, right? So it might take a little bit more to take them down. I don't know. That's my guess. I have no idea. I mean they can hurt people. So like if they kick you it's like being kicked by a horse. Right? So I don't know. Like maybe that's just what is required to do that. It isn't like they were just taking out a few of them. That's a hell of a lot. Yeah, the ammunition kind of makes sense.

There was a lot of laws in Canada that they protect the criminals too. So the police couldn't really go inside, but both of them ended up down at the hospital because they both were in the emergency room because they both got slashed. They both slashed each other in a fight. So the cops came down and they looked at it. They didn't press any charges on Robert because the person that was trying to press charges on him had a big balance because she was all choked up on drugs and everything. The cops looked at her and said, well, we can't press the charges on a farmer here, a pig farmer. So they sort of let that slide.

So, he would usually come back to the site to where he did the killing, and just lay a bunch of slugs into the air, because he believed that he wanted to let the ghosts from beyond understand that we mean business, and don't come back after this. So, there was certainly that. Now, I don't know if everybody else in this crew thought that way, but he certainly did. He had all kind of beliefs. At one point, he even, what was it?

Now for the question of the day, I was just thinking about the advent of robots and household robots specifically. They might do something like help you pick things up or do the dishes or, you know, simple tasks to take them off your plate, maybe take care of your laundry. It's just something that you would entertain having in your home, having a robot that would do some household tasks, take them off your plate. And there are folks, of course, who already have robots in one form or another in their home. We could consider the Roombas like I believe Joe have filled a, we have Mabel here at our house a Roomba. And there are also, of course, voice assistants. But just generally, would you have a robot like a full on robot in your house to handle housework or just would you not want them in your house?

And it arrived last Monday and installed on Tuesday. And last night was the first time that I sat down and watched a movie in my new apartment here. It was a movie that Joyce and Joe, the Loberts, Glendale, I, Joyce and Joe, recommended Heaven is for Real. And it was an outstanding movie. I even popped some popcorn.

I think on the other other reflector there, so I Considered myself the other Joe There you go and now you have a whole insomnia thing I've got a hole between my flight and the time change and everything I'm still screwed up on that starting at metal it happens to me every year, and I know it even sounds silly to me but You know it really kind of zaps your energy to I'm not for a bike ride the other day and boy Just I rarely have days. I can't get the energy going and it was one of them. That's two in the last week After the net today, I plan on trying to go out for a ride We'll see how that turns out because what it's been beautiful. You know II no humidity no in clear skies just absolutely beautiful You know 80 in Pittsburgh my hometown with humidity is miserable 80 here with no humidity is nice actually when I'm cruising in the Jeep With the top off and everything 80 it's almost cool believe it or not so Good stuff, but as far as your question goes You know I do like the automation But I also it also scares me because We become so dependent on other things on automation to you know turn your coffee pot on or Vacuum your house or turn your lights on or whatever You know I get I wonder that day comes when you know the internet goes out or maybe out to an extended time And things zap out and nothing works anymore, and we're gonna be sitting there scratching our heads like gee how about what? How do I turn on the kitchen lights or how do I make coffee or how do I sweep the floor? You know we're getting so automated with everything especially cars today. You know I went to school to be a mechanic When I was young and back then you could fix a car today's world if it doesn't start there doesn't run you're helpless You've got to take them into the shop or have it towed in and they got to hook computers up to it and find out Why it's not running so? Yeah that part of it scares me so but anyway, that's it for here, and I'm sure we'll be having actual robots You know you've been kind of looking in a relatively short time so there you go so unless we just take a 7z back to you Barbara"},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-11-09T07:19:22+00:00","id":77550,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":77549,"text":" Okay, K7z.

I mean even now How many phone numbers do people remember, you know, try remembering your own phone number sometimes Everyone just pushes a button and it dials it for you. So many of us don't Recall phone numbers that well, I still have a few tucked in my brain, but I try to keep those fresh It's just one of those things. That's a very good point All right.

When I worked at General Motors and had to learn how to repair them and what have you. So, somebody much fun to do that with. So, they got such intricate parts and what have you. Back then, I don't know about now, but they were pretty rough. But I don't have much robotic stuff around here. I don't have the thing to turn my lights on and off. I do that myself. And about the only thing I have robotic you might call is my coffee pot. And I'd be lost without it because I put it on the night before. And when I get up in the morning it's always made. So there you go. Unless I forget to put the water in it. Or the coffee. Whatever. So, let me see. And as far as Joe goes, yeah, he was talking about putting the computer on a car. Okay, what happens if the power goes out and they can't do anything with a computer? So then you're stuck both ways. You know? So, yeah, and I still got some old wired telephones. And I said I want to keep the wired telephones because I can still call out. And get calls in. If I got an emergency and when I got my radios and everything right beside it, I could still use it. I had to go round and round with them when I had a phone off the hook here several weeks ago. And they said, ah, just run it through the router and all that stuff. You know? Well, I said that doesn't get it. So they finally sent a technician out and they got it all straightened out. So that's always a plus to have something back up on it.

And I didn't mention it, but in the chat we had a contribution from, I believe it was KK7Z, waiting for the girlfriend robots to come out. I won't go there. But I will say that as a single, and sometimes having certain tasks that require, shall we say, a bit of upper body strength, I could deal with having a boyfriend robot just for certain tasks, like maybe not opening a jar, but maybe changing the filter in the ceiling or certain things like that.

Looks like my phone has decided to dump my... If I could go back there. Yeah, well, you know I'm still on the microphone. How about that? The only automated thing I have is I took the air conditioner off my RV and I put a heat pump in and I literally had to restring a new whole wiring harness for the new unit to talk to the propane because that works until 69 degrees and then it hands it over to the propane and lets the propane take over. That's the only automated thing I've got at home. Of course, I've got all these... One, two, three, four. I've got at least four to five old cell phones here. And New Tech glass tablet, Dell computer, two of them, one of them. I can't seem to get my son to bring my operating system here, so it stares at me from the shell. Not a lot else going on here.

We actually went and the current sanyo 50 inch TV that we have is starting to lose its resolution and we've had to play around with the settings on it. But um, anyway, so we went out and bought a brand new Sony Bravia 3 55 inch and yeah it was big enough to put on the cabinet in the living room. So um, so we went and got that at Best Buy and um, oh yeah, we saved about $100 on it but then we ended up buying a 4 year extended warranty on it as well so it came to over 9. I won't say whether it's G or whether it's Huns. Anyway, Canadian. So yeah, we got that home first and then we set, we uh, then we had a quick bite to eat after we went um, did a bit of shopping at Ben's Meats in Delhi and uh, then we went back out and got our groceries done. So after we put the groceries done that's when we decided to take it out and set it all up. So there we go. Um, 73 everybody. Um, and uh, what else? Nothing else.

I have a 4 day weekend because I'm always off on Monday anyway. So wow. Anyway, yeah, I know a lot of folks feel the way that you do. Even when you program these devices correctly they might not work the way that you want them to and I definitely think it's wise to keep that muscle strong when it comes to getting things done yourself.

I think the word robot itself has baggage I think that's why so many of the Applications whether it's a home assistant, whatever they they draw on different words I'm not sure if I'd call them euphemisms, but they're branching out certainly from the word robot because of the Implications they have from movies like Terminator and other things That's what I could understand people feeling a little bit iffy about using something like that But then you have things called self-driving cars you have Home assistance Smart devices, so yeah I think maybe the word robot has a little bit of freight to it You have to consider that but that's why I'm trying to broaden the topic a bit But hey, thank you so much for that because you kind of touched on something interesting there So anyway, hey have a great day.

And we just, you know, she really settles any dust that the vacuum left over and kind of cleans up any dust that's left from just vacuuming. So Squirt and Hilda. And then back in, we're trying to figure out, I think it was 1969 or 1970, I designed an automatic lawn mower all by myself and built the electronics and everything. I mounted it to control a three and a half horsepower gasoline lawn mower engine. It was a front-throw reel type lawn mower with basically chain drives for each of the two wheels on the lawn mower. And I could use a trim-tab motor off a Twin Beach aircraft, I guess, a trim-tab motor, as a magnetic brake to slow one wheel down or the other to steer. And I basically had the thing, well, it was stored programmed. And I had it working at our rental house and then we bought the house here in 1969 or so. And I actually put in a test pattern here and it would mow around a tree and when it was done, it would put itself in the garage and turn its gas engine off and park it in the garage as a test pattern. And it basically followed the single conductor wire that I would have to bury in the ground about four inches below the soil and it would follow that. And it worked great on the test patterns, I put it, but then when we bought the house, Joyce is telling me I'm going to time out. Let me reset."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-11-09T07:48:26+00:00","id":77575,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":77574,"text":" Yeah, then we bought the house in 1969-70.

I'm going to bury that wire about three or four inches below the soil and everything else. But anyway, it did work. It worked at the rental house. It cut around two trees and then shut itself off but here at the house it actually put itself in the garage and shut itself off all automatically. But I never did take it to the final where I buried the wire everywhere around the property. So there you go. That's about it guys. Bringing back old, old memories.

Anyway, not much going on today, Barbara. Just a slow Sunday morning. Getting ready to do my chores tomorrow is trash day, so got to get everything caught up and done, change out the cat litter box, the dog's poop can, the whole whatever, clean the yard. Well, we clean the yard all the time. But get everything ready for the upcoming week by getting rid of the stuff from the previous week. So anyway, in regards to the robot, the only thing I really don't have use for a robot I was trying to think because we have carpeted floors, we vacuum, you know, if you had the hard floors, I guess it'd be a lot easier with the robot vacuum. I'm not sure how well they work on carpet. Everybody I spoke to said that they're mainly for the wood floors, but you know, I'm not sure. But I, we can vacuum ourselves and I do what I can in the areas that I'm in and my son, of course, does his chores. But you know, I think the more we get, how lazy can we become? That's what I'm thinking. Kind of like the along the lines of KK7Z, you know, and then something happens and things go offline or whatever the case is and, and you know, you don't even have the, the muscle to do anything anymore. So that's why I like the dogs. I like everything that I do on my own because it keeps the muscles working, keeps you busy and keeps you, well, it just keeps you going, I guess. That's just my opinion. But I guess in some cases it is good. Dale's idea was pretty good, you know, especially for those disabilities and you know, in those cases, I guess it'd be okay, but I don't have anything of my own. The only thing I do is my house is somewhat automated with the lights and stuff only because we always, I used to always forget to turn them on after, after dusk and the yard light, whatever, or you know, stuff like that.

It sounds like you're a bit loath to adopt it and yeah, a lot of folks are and there's certainly the argument that we want to, you know, be able to keep on top of being able to do these things, to have that muscle memory at least. One thing, one thought though that occurs to me is that, you know, young mothers of 50, 60, 70, 80 years ago had so much on their plates. I think they would have prayed for some of this. So just a thought. But yeah, nowadays we are a lot luckier and we have dishwashers, most of us and things that take some of the labor off. But yeah, there you go.

They're fun to talk to every once in a while and you know, give you information and stuff like that. There's a physical device running around my house. I don't think I really like that at all. You know, I'm not very trusting when it comes to automation and I've worked in automation for a long time. It depends on how smart you make a device and with AI coming up here, it's getting pretty ridiculous. Some of the AI questions I've asked the chat GDP, it lies to you. It really does sometimes. So I'm not very forgiving about that. So I'd say no, I don't want anything in my house other than maybe a personal system like the dot devices.

So yeah, very cool. But of course, yeah, like you pointed out, with the advent of AI, a lot of this could be changing. And you know, you want to have AI have accurate responses, but on the other hand, that means it's collecting, it's sucking up and absorbing a whole lot of data from a lot of different sources and getting smarter and smarter. That has its pluses, it has its minuses and there's real concerns either way. So definitely changing terrain. But hey, anyway, I hope you have a great birthday party for your granddaughter today.

Well, about those AI meti glasses, very interesting. And it stands to reason. There's a lot of wearable technology that's picking up on these sorts of tasks, whether it's describing something in front of you on command. And I would add that one kind of glasses I'm considering getting are ones that work with an app on your phone and they caption what the person is, whoever is in front of you or whoever is speaking around you, it captions what they're saying. I doubt the accuracy level is that high yet, but someday it could improve. And for people like myself, I mean, I'm wearing a headphone directly on my ears, so it's direct feed, but for those of, you know, when I go out into the world and I'm in maybe a little slightly noisy place, it can be very challenging to hear people. So it, these are tools that can assist for, you know, whether sight, hearing, various things. So I think they're going to be adopted more and more. And they won't be seen as special tools either, I don't think. I think they'll be seen as just part of the array of wearables. So it could remove any stigma that might otherwise be associated with it, like hearing aids still having a stigma. But these new wearables, well, they're just wearables, right? So, and I'm so glad you get to see your furry buddy today. That is such good news. And wearing the special shirt for it, awesome. Thank you for sharing that with us. That's a moment of joy.

But before I get started with short times, just so you know what the drill is here, we will do short times just for a couple of minutes. Those are people that have to leave and or don't want to answer the question of the week. And then we will do check-ins by geography. We will do a quick call out to the United Kingdom. Then we will move into Canada. We will go VE3 and East, Victor Echo 4 West and to the North. We will check out Late or Mist, and then we will head down to the United States and then we will open it up to the rest of the world. So that is sort of the drill here. Before we get started on anything though, I'm just going to check in and see if our overlord, Scott of VA7SL or Adrian of V7NZ have any bulletins before we get started this week."},{"ai_pass_count":0,"analysis_step_count":0,"confidence":null,"created_at":"2025-11-09T10:10:17+00:00","id":77620,"node_number":"oldsys","processing_time":null,"recent_steps":[],"recording_id":77619,"text":" Good morning, Dave, everybody on net. By the way, Dave, I sent you an email a couple of days ago. Maybe take a look at that. In totally unrelated news, working 10M DX right now, they've got India coming in and Morocco coming in to the West Coast. So 10 meters after a couple of weeks of not so great weather, not so great propagation is picking up. But that's not why you called on me. Network is working reasonably well, except the IRLP is still not connected to the Canada Hub. So yes, you can connect to 9029 and talk to other people on reflector 9029 on IRLP, but 9029 is not connected to the rest of the Canada Hub. I met with the illustrious founder and owner of IRLP, Mr. Dave Cameron, last week, or a few days ago, and I was chatting with him. And I think we've got a path to pursue. We're also working with the folks who wrote the Hamboip software. So we'll figure it out. But right now it's still not connected. Although we do have a guy, terrible, can't remember the calls right now, doing a great job of cross-connecting to 9029 by his node in Saskatchewan during the net. So he may be connected right now and saying, why is he saying all this for? It's actually working. So I appreciate that help during the net time. And that's it. Oh, I'll just take a quick reset. I've got another update. Okay. The other update is we had a very successful test last Monday of sending images from what will be the transmitter on our high altitude engine over 900 megahertz to a receiver at Scott's place. So we did a test that basically showed that we can do it with as little as we can. We did a five kilometer test with simply the equivalent amount of power, one half of one milliwatt. Okay? So 0.0005 of a watt at 925 megahertz. And into a seven element YAGI, we got a pretty much 95% successful image. A few pixels missing, but it was pretty cool. And that's a good test because we can extrapolate that information and if we power up to 50 milliwatts, we know we can basically get images from the balloon throughout its flight when it goes 30 kilometers above us. So this is really interesting. And it's a big step for us because we've been working on this for, oh gosh, I've got to tell you a year. So now we can start planning our flight. We've got everything working and we'll package it up. Of course now is the worst possible weather to do this and it's probably going to be, I sent an email to people saying probably in December, but frankly with everything else that's going on through with contesting and travel and other activities through December and bad weather, we're probably looking more likely to do it. So it's finally coming together and we'll have more updates on that when it happens. We'll be streaming all that stuff live, the crossband repeater. We'll be streaming the videos, snapshots, which are going to be updated every 30 seconds. We had a picture from the balloon. It's going to be super cool. Anyway, I'm obviously in a chatty mood tonight. I think I've talked long about it too. Back to you Dave and thanks for running the net. VE7 November Zulu in very sunny Vancouver. Okay great. Thanks Adrian. Thanks for the update and yeah, I'll check out my email after the net there and get back to you. Very interesting updates. Thank you so much for that. Appreciate it. All right. So with that, I'm going to move from Adrian's update to short time check-ins. So again, short time check-ins for the nets. If you do not want to answer the question of the week, which is what in ham radio excites you these days? If you don't want to answer the question or if you want to do a short time check-in because you've got to leave quickly, now is the time to do it. So short time check-ins. Please join us now. Okay, that's something we haven't seen for a while there Dave. Let me just do a couple of clicks here and you'll be back in business. Sounds good.

And in the hobby of a thousand rooms, of course, there's always the picoballoons. I probably spend two hours a day journaling all the picoballoons that are circling the Earth. And I started that because I wanted one day maybe have a balloon go up there. And actually I do have a dedicated balloon. It's 120 days in flight and it's down there by the equator. It was over Ecuador there yesterday and I'm hoping that it'll beacon again soon. It is having a problem. It is having a problem. It beacons only every four days or so. But it's still beaconing.

Good to hear you again there Dave. It's been a while since I've checked in and heard you. Yeah, here we are. I'd like to say the hobby of hobbies. I love it. I think the two most things I am happiest at with the ham radio is putting up or multiplying or relocating my antennas, wire antennas or what have you. Outside putting stuff together, I just put up a G5 RV after all these years. I thought I'd try a commercial one and it seems to have checked out on the VNA as expected. So we'll be looking forward to that in the winter. And as Emil mentioned, I like to throw out my CQ on one of my favourite bands, Seventeen, and always interesting to see who comes back to my CQ. So that's what sort of turns my crank as they say. The E3 UJK in almost ready to snow tiny township. Back to you Dave. The E5 UO. Thank you very much. Very good John. And thanks for your check in today. It is great to chat with you again. It's been a while for sure. And I do see via your QRZ page here as well that you've got a two element quad on Seventeen. That must be interesting. I bet you that works fantastic. I hope to work you on the band sometime. I don't have any dedicated, I shouldn't say don't have any, I have a 30 metre wire. But I don't have any dedicated antennas for the other work bands. But I can load up some of the other antennas that are on the tower here and it seems to work okay. One of those things to do in retirement for me which will not be in the too distant future. Starting in the new year. So hopefully a little more time to play ham radio and do some antennas and things like that. More antennas, more homemade antennas. Thanks again John. Great to hear from you. And I'll move down the list to Victor Alpha 3 Whiskey Bravo Kilo. Joel in Castleman, Ontario. Welcome to The Net. And Joel, what are you into in ham radio? What is exciting you about ham radio these days? Go ahead. This is Victor Alpha 3 Whiskey Bravo Kilo. What fancies me currently on this great hobby? There's so many stuff that I do want to explore in this hobby. But currently and probably for this winter season it's going to be some home brew stuff. I'm going to be trying to home brew my own little antenna. It'll be a 2 meter tape yaggy. I think it's the first one on the list. And after that it'll be probably some transceiver, a little kit that I'll find somewhere. And I'll have a blast for this winter. And hopefully the warm weather is going to push me into doing other home brew stuff on the outdoor and bigger size. Back to Net. This was VA3 Whiskey Bravo Kilo. Connecting to Echolink VE4AWB. Connected. Alright. We're connected to a Manitoba Echolink station. That's awesome. Okay, thanks Joel. Appreciate that. And you got me thinking about building a QMX Plus, one of those QRP Labs kits possibly this winter as well. And looks to be a completely crazy functional QRP transceiver. Not as interested in the SSB side of things, but just as a code radio or digital radio. Okay, thanks Joel. Appreciate it. And yeah, have fun. Enjoy the winter projects. And we have warm weather to look forward to. It's about minus 10 here in Saskatoon right now. A little bit of healthy dose of snow on the ground already. But we'll be warming up tomorrow and it will melt off. It should be plus 9, plus 10 here tomorrow. Alright, more check-ins from Eastern Canada, Ontario and East. For the Trans-Neonette Control Station by the way. Myself Victor Echo 5 Uniform Oscar. My name is Dave and I'm located in Saskatoon. So any further check-ins from Canada, please join us now.

Not the drive, but the sight nonetheless. As far as ham radio is concerned, I don't delve into it too much just because of other things that I've got going on, but I have a mobile setup obviously with what I'm on and then just a small base at home. And usually just the HF, UHF, which is just fine for what I needed to do. Maybe delve into a little bit of HF down the road, but I just keep it pretty simple just so I don't get overwhelmed and overloaded with things. But then again, there's more to discover with the hobby. I'll turn it back to you. Thanks again for taking my check-in and I hope everyone has a good morning, good afternoon, or good evening.

This is Victoriek Osavigny, Echo Foxtrot, staying here. Well, I appreciate Antenna Works and working on my station here, gradually setting things up. Still lots of things to finalize here, but I really enjoy the aspect of antennas and all that, in regards to communications. I'm really into DX. I really love DXing. I've got a number of cards that have been put in a box for many, many years, and finally I am getting them to be looked at after by a card checker, and then enter all of them in a database. I hope to see more awards and things like that. I really enjoy that. I enjoy the aspect of also communicating during times when there's contests going on, so I really, really enjoy that. Also the friendships, it's really nice. The social aspect of it is also very appealing to me. So with that, I'll say my 73 is all the best to everybody listening, and I'll send it back to you. Okay, very good Stan, and thanks for checking in. Yes, great pictures of you on your tower working on your four element HF Yagi there. It's an impressive looking setup there, and I hope to work you on HF sometimes. Just checking, I don't think we've worked on HF yet, but we will be working on it sooner than later.

Many dipole designs seem to be the ones that work almost right out of the box unless of course you've got some mechanical problem but yeah it's it's a lot of fun. I would recommend maybe looking at a antenna analyzer at some point. The vector network and the small VNAs and things that can be a little daunting but great to have some kind of network analyzer when you're building antennas if you haven't done so yet.

I used to hang out with a bunch of guys that we just got into everything. Somebody said, hey, let's try this and we'd stay the next long period of time getting into it. So, gosh, back in the days we did everything from RTTY to SSTV, Fast Scan TV, Satellite EME, everything. And we would really get into it. Anyways, I am back into Satellite. Satellite's been sort of an interest that's been in me. So when I was asked if I wanted to be involved with the formation of AMSAT Canada, I said absolutely. So we're in the throes of getting that set up. And I get on Satellite still quite frequently and there's lots happening in that realm. I think it's probably one of the fastest growing areas in the hobby. And it looks like because Satellite's getting cheaper to make and they're getting cheaper to launch. That used to be a big problem years ago, the cost of launching. So it's a growth area. So I've decided to jump back into it and share my knowledge in that area.

You can get on with some fairly modest equipment and home brewing antennas and things like that. Fantastic. I actually have an ICOM 9700 sitting here in a box that I bought from the estate this summer. I haven't actually hooked it up yet but contemplating possibly getting into satellites and sort of on the fence but I don't know maybe you can talk me into it sometime.

So like other ones you can use your phone basically, Toystar for any kind of EMR, YSF, Discard, M17, I mean iPhone, then there is repeater phone application for all stars network, and AcroLink, of course AcroLink there too. But for IRLP you need hardware, it's a bit closed network, so you cannot build it like ASL, so for that you need the node with this number programmed and rebuilt and stuff.

It sounds like you'll have some more time yourself to play on some things that maybe work gets in the way of. So I'm excited for you on that. I'm for Amateur Radio most recently. I'm also excited to facilitate a winter Amateur Radio course with the club here. We have a number of people interested. Just get working out some of the final logistics here but we'll see what the turnout is. I had a good run last year. So I find that exciting. I like meeting people, meeting new good people, and learning things, and helping other people learn things. It's one of the many things I'm really excited about at Amateur Radio. So hey, thanks for asking. Thanks again for doing it. In whiteboard it's minus 5 degrees. Charlie had us knowing quite hard. We woke up to about 3 inches of accumulation and now it looks like we're up to about 5. And no end in sight at the moment. We've got about 130 mm or 13 cm of snow forecast. We're right about there. We'll see what happens. $6.73 to all. Thanks for being there. Back to neck control for VY1MGS73. Thanks Michael. I appreciate that and thanks for the kind words. Victor Yanki won Mike Golf Sierra. And yes, there is no end to the fun things that you can do. And glad to hear that you are anticipating putting on a local course there. And that's something we're kicking around with our local club as well, Saskatoon and District Amateur Radio Association. And we are actively pursuing locations, and structures, and things to put on a course. We haven't put one on since just as COVID was hitting. So I think hopefully there's a pent up demand for it and we can get a number of people in for a basic course. Also a few are asking for an advanced course which we haven't run for many years as well. So looking forward to being involved with that also in the new year. So good luck with that and I'm curious to hear how things go for you.

Yeah, what I'm into is old radios that are decommissioned from services. So anything with a pop or radio Charlie prefix, I'm into it. I grew up in YXE and on 20th, it was a pawn shop that had decommissioned communications equipment from Dundurn. I think it was the Army base, the CFS base. And it would come into the shop and I'd go there every week just to see what was due. And I really caught the green radio bug I think back then. So I've been kind of into that for years now. And I'm trying to connect an ALE, Automatic Link Establishment System to my PRC 320 now. The green radios are a big hobby of mine. And I don't think my tank account likes it either. But I continue to love that kind of commercial equipment. It's kind of single use equipment. It's just like one way or two way conversations and that's it. Nothing really extraneous about it.

When we were over in the island of Kauai over there, we had a two-story building. And what I did was I had a roll-up J-Pull antenna, which is made with a twin-lead antenna. And I tuned it up so it resonated both on two meters and 440. And you know, I hung it from the ceiling out there of our rental, and I was able to communicate across from Kauai to the island, which is probably about 60 or so miles across the ocean there. And you know, I had really good results with that antenna. So if someone mentioned to him there's some simple fixes to making things work where you can't have an antenna outside. And you know, you just have to be innovative. Also the ARL has a book out for restricted antennas, you know, areas. And we contend with that in Aria, too. We have people who live in H-ways that have to be careful how they put up antennas in K-6P-KL. Very good. Thanks for the recheck, Bill. And thanks for pointing out that resource for Gordon in Brockport, New York. And also, sorry if you didn't mention this, Bill, about restricted antenna situations and things like that. Let's not forget also that we have lots of great modes and things, and not just on the voice modes, but on HF with FT8s. And all those modes and things really lend themselves to, and I hate to use the word compromised operation, because it isn't really compromised. It's an innovative operation.

I'm going to move my amplifier off the main table over to the side here and put it beside my HF radio here and get it connected to an outside antenna. I don't think there is a lot of 23 centimeter operation around here and our population density isn't quite what it is in the UK so I don't know how good terrestrially we will be but I'm certainly interested in some satellite operations and of course the built in D-Star maybe getting back on D-Star here a little bit.

I'm using a BaoFeng DM32UV. It was less than $100 to my door. I think it was shipped direct from China. But it works. And it does DMR as well. So DMR and analog, dual band. And I mean it's got enough frequency capacity to do FRS, GMRS, marine. I think I timed out there.

But yes as John said the hobby is quite cheap now if you want to go to the cheap route with the Eintone stuff or the Kuo Zhang and Bo Feng whatever. It's amazing and the quality is really good as well you know. Watching videos and putting the old meters there and there's no harmonics you know there's absolutely spots on incredible for such a cheap radio and you can't go wrong can you really but unfortunately I'm an icon man myself. I don't live far from the actual ICOM UK. It's about half an hour drive from me so it's just up the road for me so I'm lucky there. But I've got a couple of ICOM 7000s in my shack, one in my car and one in my shack there. Lovely lovely old radio and still going strong and you know I think now that the things last longer you know I think they're much better built as such than all that being a surface mount with my eyesight you can't repair them anymore. But there is a good idea there we go but yeah enjoying the hobby immensely and especially the digital side of things when HF bands go down because of flares and what not.

Good deal, good deal. Hope you all are doing well down in Texas. Let's go to Mr. Ray out there before he comes over. Well, thanks Jim. Hey, 4G. His first had nothing to do with Ham Radio, but tomorrow, November the 10th, is Marine Corps' 250th birthday from his start at Tuntown in Foyl-El-Fion, 1775. Okay, get that. Okay, our next Sunday night VE test session will be the 4th Saturday of November, which is the 22nd. If you're looking for a VE test session on your electronic type, if you'll go to hamstudy.org forward slash sessions, put in your zip code, and you'll find every place that they're giving a VE test session in your area. You can register right there online. Please register wherever you want to test. Make sure there will be somebody there. Regarding the VE test, you will need a picture ID, your really good email address. That's how the SEC contacts you once they open back up. You'll also need an FRN number, which you'll get from them once they open back up. Since we're an ARL test team, there's a $15 test fee. If you're 18 or older, if you're 17 or under, it's $5 in the Sunday night net. We'll pick that up for you. Break. For those interested in Slow Scan TV, the ISS, International Space Station, will again be sending out their SSTV event titled, The ISS at 25 and Scouts. There will be 12 different images to cut. Celebrating their 25 years, they'll start that on this coming Wednesday, November the 12th. That will have 1730 UTC. That's about 1230 hour time. And will continue through Thursday, November the 20th. Download the 145.800 MHz and they'll be using the PD120 mode. They'll transmit a picture every two minutes, pause for two minutes, and then transmit the next picture and that will follow on this two minute cycle. You can piece them up even using your HD, have your phone next to it, and you have a decode right then or you record it right through your computer. And they will be issued a certificate. You can contact the ISS, the ISS, anyways, you can see if you Google the ISS, SSTV, November 25, you'll get all this good information or I'll be online. You can ask me later. Back to you Jim, 840C. Alright, thank you very much Ray. Quick question, just for clarification, in case anybody needs to know. If you do not have your FRN number yet, and I'm assuming you can't get one right now, how do you go about test taking? Okay Jim, that's taken care of. What we do, we enter in your FRN number, we just put in 10 zeros. They will accept that, of course the FCC is closed, but like the ARL, they will go ahead and accept that for right now. Then once the FCC opens back up, they will then issue an FRN number and we will then just have to upgrade that. I mean you update the FRN number and then it will just go through. But yes, you can go ahead and take the test now and we'll just enter in a 10-0 digits for your FRN number and we'll handle it from there. Back to you, 840C. Great information, thank you very much.

So if you're one of those, first thing you got to do is go to the contact form on that website. Let us know why those prescheduled won't work for you and what we can do to try to help you get tested or upgraded because that's what we won't do. And like Ray said, even though things are shut down, there's generally a work around right now. You still won't get your license, but the test will be taken and you'll get your credit for it and it'll sit there in queue. That being said, the tri-states clubs test every second Thursday of the month. That is common Thursday. Go to the website, w4gta.org, whiskey4golftangoalpha.org. Look under that What's Happening banner. Everything you need to know is there. Again, folks, always pre-register. Always do it. It's mandatory with a lot of places. It should be mandatory everywhere because they need to know who's coming and need to make sure they have the resources available. I'm going to shut up while I still got a voice.

That means you can tell us about your day. It could be ham radio project or otherwise. Anything goes as long as it is family friendly and FCC legal. I want to mention that there is a three minute timeout on the repeater, so try to keep your transmission shorter than that, otherwise the alligator will get you. And we also want to make sure that everyone has a chance to get in and give a report in a timely manner. So that said, let's go ahead and get her started tonight. Up at the top, I don't like to separate into many groups throughout the net here. I like to let them go as they come, I guess. But I do like to just go ahead and start with in and outs.

We also have a new net here and you're talking on the Puget Sound repeater group, two meter repeater located in Seattle. Now the reason you're probably getting in so well is we actually have six receiving stations on the negative offset. So it sounds like maybe you're down on the south end. You might be coming into the Buck Mountain input, maybe a little more. And then that all ties in together and transmits back out through Seattle. So that's how this works. So the way we do the 9 o'clock net, it is a social net of sorts. We get a round of call signs and people and then they give a report. And then we move right along there. So that said, anything else you want to add real quick? Well, I just want to throw my call sign out there in case I threw it out too fast because you guys usually throw your call signs out there way too fast to make.

I started out my, uh, to everybody on the net, and to Brian, um, Brian, bleh, can't talk. Um, I started out my Sunday by, uh, recording one scene without complying with the formality of turning on the recorder. I guess that's God's way of saying you wanna, you wanna do what on the Sabbath? Um, and so that was sort of annoying. I did get one scene done, and I'm gonna do another one before I go to bed. Um, but yeah, so that, that was kind of interesting. And then, um, church was somewhat interesting. I, I had a preacher, there was a preacher who managed to, to put together, to identify the common theme in all three lessons. Um, Old Testament, Epistle and Gospel, that is sometimes very difficult to do. I've run into sets of three lessons where you wondered what the lectionary makers were drinking when they came up with that particular set of lessons. And let's see, um, my cousin is merrily editing the captain's mass of his heart's desire and making the military language right, where I made mistakes in it. He's trying to encourage me and say, you're doing fine. Well, no, I'm really not. Um, I guess the Oceano story, which is kind of the adjunct to the story that I've been working on, that's been eating my breakfast, lunch, and dinner, um, that the story that, of this young man who eventually goes to work with her, with my heroine, could actually be a really sort of humorous space cadet story, um, in which within the first six months of his enlistment, he gets punishment duty and then gets a captain's mast, which usually could have been a court martial if the, if a certain commanding, uh, commanding officer who hates his guts had had his way. The captain saw it slightly differently, fortunately. And, um, so anyway, yes, it, it, it burbles on a pace. And, um, that's, that's, um, that's what I've been up to today. Um, 73 3388.
