Hello, hello. I have a tumbler and I like to watch retro computer posts that people do. There's this one that I've seen several times now where there's this beautiful station with the paneled walls, the wood paneled walls, dark wood paneling. He's got a TS. It looks like a 520, I'll get it yet, 820 radio, TS820 with all the accouterments. Next to it is a Commodore 64. I'm pretty sure it might be a VIC-20. I think it's a 64. Finally today when I was looking, I noticed there was a call sign there. I'm like, hey, I'm going to look this fellow up. I looked him up on QRZ and he's like, oh, I was living the dream, living in an RV for 10 years and now I'm in a retirement home in Modesto, California, right near my old stomping grounds. He now just does two meters and a 440. I thought that was very amusing. I'm really happy to hear he's still out there. I sent him a letter saying, hey, you're internet famous. Here's your station making the rounds. Hopefully he'll be okay with that. At any rate, that was one thing I did today. The other thing was I never met a pileup I didn't like. You just wade through them. Bill Sinks, like he mentioned, they're very similar to my daughters. The same thing, they're these iron-like things and they have a porcelain-like coating on them and they rust out. They're awful. I'm glad he's getting those fixed and I wish him good luck getting that all working. That's it for me, Jack. Back to you, Alpha Goal 7, Yankee Mike.
