Yes, I remember, well I used to record air checks off of FMDX and I had a Panasonic RQL, I don't know what it was, a 9500 or something. It was a big old shortwave video, but it had a really hot FM section in it. And it had a multiplexed output so that you could build your own or buy an SCA decoder that you could take with the multiplexed output. But anyway, I used to do that when I was in my 20s, but I remember earlier than that in my teens, in my preens. Listening to mediumwave, DX, and shortwave, I was way into it. And my shortwave radio, I didn't have a proper communications receiver, I just had a cool cable radio with several tubes in it. It did not have a BFO, it was just mediumwave and shortwave, band switch, you know, in the middle, click click. And a tuning knob and a volume knob, on off volume knob on the front. And a kind of nice looking wooden case, I've got a similar one that's got it here that I bought for 12 bucks, just an empty shell so I could make something out of it. I used it as a speaker to listen to radio New Zealand and stuff. Where am I going with this? But anyway, I liked to listen to WLS, and then in my 20s I would listen to WHAM from Rochester, New York, an all night radio program called The Best of All Possible Worlds. And that DJ would segue from Miles Davis to Mozart, so they could feel like, oh my god, it's there, Miles Davis was inspired by Mozart for this day, oh my god. But he ended up getting canned because he tried to organize a union. One of the best late programs in America, perhaps in the world, The Best of All Possible Worlds, and they fired him because they didn't want him to organize a union. I remember that though, I'm going on a non-transcription turntable, I had a tone arm for a transcription turntable, it was super long. I wrote a lot of stuff down here. Anyway, take care, and let's see what am I doing here. Alright, I'm putting a question mark at the time of your report. Anyway, take care Mike. And next on the list is, we've got two more stations that are in, N3, MTV. David in Mulbridge, South Dakota, please give us your report. November Quebec November, All Star Note 6222. Good morning everybody, good morning here in Mulbridge, South Dakota. Just sitting here looking at a tenor bracket I ordered up behind that. I bought a new truck last year and of course all these new vehicles are not radio friendly, and trying to mount a tenon is no fun. But when I found the bracket I want, it's a motorized hinge that when I enter my garage, I can fold the antennas backwards. And I'd go say, oh I've been doing the highway for years, I've never seen such an animal. Well, I found it. And I was guessing it would be paying between 150 and 200 bucks per rack, getting there at 201 dollars. So, it should be shipped in about 8 or 8 days, I should have it by the end of the month. And I got a dealership about two hours east of me that was willing to do the install. So when everything is done, it's going to look like a professional install. I even told the local police that when this thing is done, everyone is going to be staring at my truck. So, they do that already. Alright, not much going on here, this is my night off from work. I am now, when I work out, I'm partially retired. I'm down to four days a week. I had to keep four days to keep my insurance. So, I am now off Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday mornings. So, I get to play radio three nights a week. And hopefully this time next year, if everything works out, I'll be permanently retired. So, not much going on. It's nice weather, it's nice. I think I'll go and show you what I have to get tonight, maybe tomorrow night. And I was going to play radio, actually I'm going to go on the internet and do some studying for my general and get that out of the way. My problem is I am slightly dyslexic. So, me trying to study is not fun. With that, I'll take it back to net. I'm going to have a great night and we'll catch up hopefully in 24 hours. N3NTV, David Moward, South Dakota, on the shores of the mighty mow. On the shores of the mighty mow, the mighty Missouri. And I'm assuming the mighty Missouri River. I'm remembering that song, Ocean and Do. I long to hear you. I'm away. Crossing the... I'll stop there. It's one of the numbers we do at the Veterans Choir. Anyway, um... I'll just comment, of all the things I could comment is, like, yeah, if people are going to see your installation, you want to do a professional job. Because you are... that's your, that's your, like, advertisement. Like, you know, say, oh yes, I do this. Oh, do you have any samples that can work? Oh, yeah, see that? My jalopy that I drive you. No, you want them to look at it and go, hmm, that's really good. That's special. And then when I do it and they say that looks like professional work, I said it looks like professional work. But I'm really an amateur. That's why it's so good. I do it out of love. Alright, so, thank you very much, David. And, uh, good to hear you. And now, uh, we have, uh, uh, Filson. I'm not sure if he was in, but I'm going to give, you can do a report, Filson. DY9 IVZ, Delta Yankee 9, India, Victor, Zu. If you want to give a report, I will list them. And, uh, and it's over to you. This is Joan K. X2 CW. Yes, I'll be sure. Thank you so much for pulling up the JAL, EMAN, JOHAN, BUCKH, JOHAN CW. And after that, good evening, state your family and all the patients, staff, and everyone. Good evening, and good afternoon to the other county. And my station brought all the few things. I should say, I'm working with the PSRC. In that, or, using the nuclear, you know, that, uh, I'm not really, I will not participate, in the processing of the nuclear shield, but actually, in, uh, while I'm working. Uh, that's a good idea. For, it's a happy part of the communication for joining. It's so appreciating and a positive part of communication. And to other friends, friends. Thank you so much, uh, MUNDYUHAN. And my station, my reporting about from either here in my, uh, country, and therefore, in the part of the Netherlands island. In the Chinese war, we can see the, uh, 13, 15 hours that, in the, uh, heat of about 30 degrees Celsius. But, uh, we can see the strength of about 5,000 per hour. And, uh, we have no important message. Just joining and supporting. Back to you, MUNDYUHAN.
