Hello everybody, it's Thursday, Thursday evening, August 7th. It's 9 o'clock and it's 9 o'clock and it's time now for the PSRG 9 pukabox event. All be your host, my name is Rebecca, the call sign is KK7IJZ. This is a direct and social net that happens three times a day, 9 a.m. noon and 9 p.m. all pacific time on the WW7 PSRG 2 meter repeater which is located on Capitol Hill in Seattle, Washington. This repeater is operated by the Puget Sound repeater group and it operates at a frequency of 146.96 with a negative offset and peel tone of 103.5. All licensed hands and new licensees just getting started are welcome to join. If you have third party traffic, we'd like to hear from them too. We encourage you to press that button and tell us about yourself, your radio projects or just about anything else as long as it's suitable for a general audience. I'll be compiling with the stations that would like to check in and then I'll ask for your reports. If you'd like to check in only, just let me know that you'll be in and out also. I'll limit your reports to three minutes so that I can get as many stations in as possible and three minutes is also when the repeater times out. When you're finished with your report, please end with your call sign so that I know that you're done. Again, this is Rebecca, KK7IJZ. Let's get this net started. Call sign and name, RF and internet.

Well, good evening Rebecca and to Vanette. This is KA9 EHV. Wow. So, we eat dinner relatively late in the summer and then we say evening prayers after dinner. Which is a nice civilized time to say evening prayers. And I have to admit that I cut the time so close that you started the net about two seconds or maybe even less after I finished the last prayer. So, I haven't done it that well in a long time. It's not a particularly long order that we use but it's a little, you know, it's not casual either. Or detergently formal. Anyway, so that was fun. And let's see, I got my little military costume ready to present boot camp at Worldcon. So boot camp is one of the songs, or the stories in Wings of Joy about the basic training of Star Masters. And, hang on a second. There's basically two things the military has to know about them. Star Masters have to fly to a certain rhythm in order to be healthy. And so of course the first thing that happens to one who's taken prisoner is that they will be deprived of flight typically. That's the more common thing to do. And the Navy wants to know how a Star Master, treated that way, will break. And how long it will take before they will be so wigged out that they will sing a song of every bit of intelligence they have. And so that's the first thing they find out in basic training. And the second thing is that for any Star Master who's being sent into alien service, they memorize a long convention, equivalent to the Geneva Convention actually, about how they're to be treated. And the people in basic training will just ask for bits of this convention and the poor Star Master candidate has to be able to give it back. Or do push ups or some other punitive exercise. I figure that's very, you know, because again they have to know that actually. Going into service with a non-human species who may or may not understand your physiology, they have to know what and how you can ask for it. So that's a cute story and we're going to do that. I have a little costume with two little pins on it and a scarf. It's a very structured jean jacket that's exactly the right color. And a pair of black pants and a black beret. Woo hoo! Military uniform. So that's what I did today. Getting ready for Worldcon that starts next Wednesday. Anyway, that's about all I have and aren't you glad it's finally over? This is 73-33-88. All the numbers to all my people. Thanks Rebecca for doing the net and thanks to all of you for listening. This is KA9-PHD. Back to net. Well Anne, 33, and thank you so much for your report. I am glad that you're going to be able to go to this conference. I know that you were worried that you wouldn't be able to. But yeah, that's great. You know, you are a woman of many, many interests and many, many talents. Yes, you'll have fun. I'm excited to hear further reports about this WorldConference and also whatever else you have to share. I always love your reports Anne. 33, 88, all the numbers. Have a wonderful, wonderful evening and I'm glad you could make it to the net. This is Rebecca, KK7IJZ. And next on the list is going to be Jack. So Jack is our net control manager and over to you Jack, KI7RMU, KK7IJZ. This is repeater station Kilo Kilo 7 November Quebec November. All star node 6222. Located in Shelton, Washington.
