K9PSD, this is KJ5ILQ. Yeah, you do have to be careful with that kind of stuff, especially up there. I'm from Texas, and I hear down here all the time how bad it is up there. Whether that's true or not, I don't know, you can never tell with media. However, it does sound like you won't have to wait very long, and you'll have some National Guard soldiers to help you guard your tools. That was a joke, by the way. Sort of. Okay, well, it is 906. We'll stop the 73 rounds, and moving up to the top of the list, KC2PKG. This is repeater station QAJ5ILQ. This is KC2PKG. And I'll say it once again, it's always a privilege and a pleasure to be part of this group. It really is. I love it or not. Looks like Trump is backing off on Chicago. Now he wants to, he's hoping he'll be invited in by New Orleans. So those are the people to watch. You know, you made quick mention of HAMS losing UHF frequency between 430 and 440. And that may not matter to a lot of HAMS, except the ones who do satellite work. And the one people who want to listen to NASA and stuff like that. They've only got four satellites up there, and I guess their ground stations are wired for that UHF stuff. So they want us to give that up, so get out of their way. They've got 238 more satellites to go. So we'll see. And if you look at Discord, I put up the article and read the Radio Society of Great Britain's comment. They pretty much lay it out, what's going on there. And you will notice that UHF stuff, especially for repeaters, is much cheaper than VHF. It's ground-following, but basically it's much cheaper. That appeals to HAMS. It really does. So consequently, there are a lot of repeater systems all over the planet that run in that frequency range. And these guys can't promise anything. They haven't really presented a technical case for why we should give up. 10 MHz of frequency, or 100 MHz of frequency. So it's that kind of thing. But you know what? It's a company against HAMS, and I've been seeing this coming for a long time. We'll see what the FCC does. Guys, have a great rest of the day. 73's to you. I will try and figure out a way to make myself useful today, or not. We'll see. But my lunch is already made, so I'm happy about that. Anyway, Josh, great neck against adversity. Amazing. Amazing. It's back to you. TGA5 IRQ, this is KC2-PKG73R.
