Good morning, good afternoon to everyone. Oh, let me see here now. Well, everybody's kind of mentioned everything already, but I remember back in the 20-some years ago, running a 10-meter mobile, running about 20 watts, and working Japan and Australia and New Zealand and all the islands in the Oceana area and South Africa right at the tip, and all through South America. It was exciting running around with a 10-meter mobile, and a mobile background antenna on the car working 10 meters. FDA, everybody's mentioned it, I'm big into that these days, low power, high power, doesn't matter. I've worked the whole world from Antarctica to Northern Canada, the Greenland and Iceland and Japan and South Korea and Australia and New Zealand, all those areas, all over the place. I haven't worked anything in, I guess, Siberia and all those areas of the world. But on the other side, you know, all of Europe and all of that. So, yeah, fun times. But the 10-meter running around with a mobile was fun back then. I haven't done that since. But, yeah, maybe I should get back into that. And 16-meter mobile, too. It was fun also. Back, I guess late 1999 when the cycle was still hot back then. Thanks for having me. Thanks for doing the net. Great hearing everybody today. We'll be clearing out here. VE-4CA. Thanks. Thanks for your check in, Rob. Yeah, I had a lot of fun on 10 back in those days as well. Very low power and getting big distances. That's about when I got out of the hobby in 1999 or so. And then I got back in around 2018. And I haven't really experienced conditions like I used to back then. Haven't experienced conditions like those quite as many times. Thanks for joining us. And speaking of 10 meters and 6 meters, for those of you who maybe don't have full HF privileges yet, check out our repeater, Victor Echo 3 Mike X-Ray VE3 MMX. They're on QRZ. They have a couple of receivers on 10 meters FM, a couple of receivers on 6 meters FM. And when the band's open, there's lots of DX going through there. They do have All Star and Echo Linked and 2 meters and all the rest. But they have 10 and 6 as well. So one way to hear some DX. And next on the list, Victor Echo 4 Alpha Alpha Papa. Trevor, welcome to the net. What's the furthest you've managed to reach?
