Yeah, I totally get what you're saying about the reset there. Like, my repeater here, it is a full duplex RF repeater with All-Star. But I think the total key time on it is like seven or eight hundred milliseconds, because it has to sync the radios and the amps, and fans don't have to power up before it actually starts transmitting or receiving. There is a bit of a delay there, and then you add in All-Star lag. It was probably a good couple seconds there. It takes for everything to reset and connect and get going. But, yeah, that sounds like a lot of work. I've never actually had the experience of moving. I don't know if I ever want to. I've been here so long, there's so much stuff piled up, it would probably take me a year to move. That just sounds like a lot of work, but I kind of get what you're saying. Anyways, back to you, KK7, and you, then. From WA6ABC, I find business. My family, it's not even just my house, my family's been here a hundred years, literally a hundred years. 1925 to 2025, so yeah, so it's a lot of stuff to be responsible for, and a lot of it, some of it's not mine, so I'm going through all these basement items, old antiques, old china, old pictures from the 1920s, maybe 1930s, I don't know, but yeah, maybe 1920s, I have pictures of, I'm a 62 year old man, so I have pictures of my grandfather and grandmother when they were kids, very sweet, very sweet. So yeah, a lot of memories there. I have some of my family helping me, my sister came by today, helped me go through some of the stuff. I'm just trying to get rid of stuff, and I'm not overly sentimental, so the only thing I like are the photos from way back when. China and personal possessions, not really, just don't have an affinity for that. Clothes if I need them, but otherwise, most stuff can go out, out, out, out. I've even got some old radio equipment that I'm probably going to part with. It's going to be too heavy to bring along in the move, so I'm going to oust it, oust it in the move. Yeah. Alright, I should probably move forward with my day. Nice to meet you, Hunter. I appreciate you coming back to me, because even these big systems are kind of dead between nets. Not sure when the next net is here on Do Drop In, but I figured I'd come on here because it's so well distributed that there might be somebody like you listening. I don't know if you've ever tried the CQ feature of Echolink. That's kind of an interesting thing. So it says call CQ, and it'll connect you with somebody else who's calling CQ on the system. That's worked for me before. It depends on the lock or whatever, but interested about calling the CQ system. I'll send it back to you for final, and wish you a great rest of the holiday weekend. Stay safe, enjoy yourself, and I'll be listening for your final KK7NQN. WA6, ABC, Saiyan73, and all the best listening for your final.
