Yes, sorry about that. The phone slipped on me and clicked off. I was trying to see if we could link PSR with our repeater up here outside Detroit for one of the time slots of the Met. I don't encourage that but our president says PSR has to link with us which I don't think everyone has the experience with Echo Link and linking up here but I'd really like to try to see if we can get that done and encourage people to use the Met. Before that, it's a balmy 64 here outside Detroit. In a few minutes I'm going to go up on a ladder and see if I can raise the dual band antenna. I have up another 10 or 15 feet. The guy wire is running to it and at least today maybe get the two rearward ones a little tensioned so I can get the antenna back to pointing through 90 degrees to the ground there. Right now it's drooping about 30 degrees. I'm just using some 1 1-16 inch cable since the antenna doesn't really have much of a wind load. I don't think I have to worry about that. All time will tell, time will tell. There's a regional swap coming up tomorrow about an hour's drive. I have to work but I'm so tempted to call in. I don't think I can justify that to the powers that be. Back to you Kirk. W8WW.
