Well good afternoon to you Jack, KI7RMU from Amy KV9IQX and a hearty howdy do to everybody on the net. Jack I am outside. I heard your clarion call for check-ins and I was like I'm a check-in? I'm a licensed amateur radio operator. I should check in but I was inside in the building. And then I opened up the garage door to let all the RF squigglies out because they were bouncing around the building and they were starting to hurt. So I opened up the door and some of them flew out and apparently made it to the repeater. Anyway I'm out here in the yard in the back at the peanut butter factory. For those of you playing along at home I am under the freeway. There's a big wall about 20, no probably 30 feet tall. And the freeway is above me. It's at the sign where it says exit 161 Albro Place Swift Ave and exit 162 Corson Ave Michigan Street in a half mile. One half mile. Anyway I like to play that game with highway signs. Some of them you could make up characters like Albro Swift and his very close friend and associate Corson of Michigan. They were turn of the century, turn of the last century Seattleites. Businessmen conducting business and they were close associates. Anyway here I am. I'm working in the building today doing some movie watching but I'm going to do that and then I'm going to duck out. One of my coworkers forgot to pick up a counter yesterday and he's working at home today so I'm like woohoo. Of course, of course I'll break free from my desk and go outside into the field and pick up a counter. So I'm going to do that. I'm going to take some photos Jack of a place that I think would make a really good Sunday morning coffee net. I'll probably text them to you. KB9IQX.
