I realized I was waxing eloquent. Because it's a lap harp, it's pretty straightforward to record. But you do have to watch, because on the smaller harps, you can get some frequency pile up. On the bigger harps, you're limited on what you can actually do in terms of notes, unless you get a concert harp, which in order to sound decent has strings that, to me, being used to folk harps feel 3 quarters dead. Joan, KX2CW is the other harper on this list. And she'll probably have a whole lot to add to this conversation. But anyway, and finally, to people who might want to know, my nine call comes from the fact that I got my license while attending college at Wheaton College, 25 miles west of Chicago. And I met my husband, whose call at the time was KB9Y, and whose call now is N7NB. I met my husband while I was at Wheaton College. So that's how that all went down. I know Chicago and its unfortunate weather fairly well. The windy city frees. Anyway, so I hope that answers all of Jim's questions. Oh, yes, and I do use a pickup. There's one of my harps that does have a pickup. And when I amplify live, I actually prefer to use a pickup because outside, that's a little easier than playing around with a mic and trying to keep it out of the wind. Anyway, and for the record, I work as a street musician. There you go. 73 and 33, and thanks, Jim, for all your interest. I usually try to get on earlier, like about 8.30 sometimes. And I can be contacted through QRZ. So this is KA9, 73 and 33 and 88, and thanks for your interest. This is KA9, EHV, back to net.
