Okay, Hazel, I'm wondering where she is now. Or was it? I'm in charge, let me up. Yeah, she is. Um, quick report on my little vertical antenna project. I need radials. I mean, it's a little bit of a problem. Quick report on my little vertical antenna project. I need radials. I mean, it's mounted on its fabulous Sweetwater speaker stand. I promised the rep that I would send him a picture. Because he goes, well, don't you need two? I said, no, I just need one because I'm using it for an antenna mount. He goes, what? I said, yeah, you know, ham radio, amateur radio, you know, antenna. He goes, oh, that sounds interesting. I said, I'll send you a picture. You can send it around and say, yeah, not just for speakers anymore. So, he goes, yeah, I said, well, I'd rather get it from you and, you know, cost the same and, you know, that way I can keep my, you know, little account active and keep getting, you know, interesting emails from you guys. Because I love, it's like the Sears, you know, we used to call the Sears catalog the Christmas Wish Book. And that's pretty much what it is for me because all those lovely pictures of all those lovely guitars, oh my, be still my heart. But anyway, yeah, so I'm going to, once I get the, you know, the yellow coax from Messy and Poloni, you know, mounted, then I'll send a picture of the antenna. It's a Yessou ATOS, the one that goes up and down. The radio drives it. It's cool. I like it. It's fun. So that's the project. You know, because like I want to be able to, you know, pack this up and go, go, go, go, go, go. If I go somewhere and I might be there, you know, like, oh, look, there's a picnic table. Let's use that. I'm going to pause. You know, I can't do a lot physically, but still this radio will afford me the opportunity to, you know, Pota. I can do, you know, a park on the air that I can get to. And I've got a battery operated radio so I can do, you know, what is it, five watts, whatever that's called. I got my CW key. You know, there you go. And I got an antenna. I can break it down, deploy. It's a good plan. I think it's a good plan. That's what I'm up to. WQ7H back to Rebecca. Well, James, that sounds like a great plan. I love that plan. And yeah, I feel like we used to do the same thing with the Seattle, I Seattle, with the Sears catalog. We would circle all the things we could dream of getting. But yeah, no, my parents didn't, my parents didn't do GIF. They were very, and we didn't, none of us cared either. They were very, my parents were very practical, were and are very practical. And they never understood. I mean, they humored us letting us do that. But yeah, there was never a, they didn't do GIF. And yeah, well, I think that sounds like a great idea, James. And yeah, you can do a lot with radio. Maybe, yeah, maybe mobility, mobility wise, you're limited, but that's all right. You can do. But 7388, James, have a wonderful day and enjoy planning and planning and planning. Yeah, 73. All right. That was the end of that list. So let's call for announcements.
