Well, thank you for that report, Peter. And yes, I agree. I love coasties. I wanted to be a coastie, but it was a year waiting list to get in. So that's why I joined the Navy instead. And yes, I've heard about that well decorated Coast Guard person. And I feel like reading up on them. Anyway, take care, Peter. And I will catch you down the log. And I'll say again, this is Joan, KX2CW. And next up is KI7Z Mike Mike. Joe, fellow KX2 owner. Here's my KX2 right here. Joe, at my desk. I reach over and turn it on. And now there it is, 14.060. Joe, please give us your report. Comments? Good evening, Joan and everybody else on the net. Joe here, KI7Z Mike Mike. You haven't heard from me in several weeks. So I've been out of state on multiple trips for work and one for fun for a family thing. The family thing was east of Pittsburgh in Pennsylvania. And I hadn't been there many years. And during a break in the family gathering, I got to go to Crooked Creek Reservoir, which is northeast of Pittsburgh. Right as a swim when I was a kid, when I was 12 years old, many, many, many years ago. And if you've ever been to a place that you haven't been to since you were a kid that's far away from here, it's a weird feeling, like a Twilight Zone experience. You're walking around, everything's exactly the same, only the trees are larger. The water's the same. The beach is the same. It was incredible, except for the heat and humidity that we're not used to living in Seattle here. Just unbelievable, but had a great time overall. The other trips were all work related, where I was down near Bonneville Dam working, and still in Oregon, and also in Astoria, Oregon, just recently at the former Naval Air Station, Tongue Point, as it was called during World War II. I'm still doing work there, trying to clean up the environmental mess that the Navy left way back when. And while I've been working on that site for 32 years, I'm not proud to say, but I'm trying to get it done before I retire. That's about it for me, Joan. KI7 said Mike, Mike, Joe, back to that control, 73. Comments? Well, fine. This is Joe. November, Quebec, November. Wow, look at that. I'm painting all that with someone else lit it up. I'm bringing the photoscope to front. There's a look, 15 dBm, 38 milliwatts. Anyway, Joe, it was good to hear from you. And yes, someday we could have a conversation about cleanup sites left behind by various armed forces. But anyway, that day is not today. And by the way, I've brought up the w, brought up psrg.org to read the announcements after this set, after this first round, of which are also to be found on the PSRG discussion group page in Facebook, although I'm not logged into Facebook. And that's coming up, folks. So Peter, I'm always glad to hear from you. And don't stay away, please. All right. And now next, Joe, that was a report from Joe, KSMZMM. And we had an I-O from Doug, WOWSA, which is W-A-Z-A-W. And next up is Zach, one of the new Zachs, KK7WCP. Zach, please give us a report.
