Oh, you can certainly burn today, at least here in Seattle. That's my take. Yeah, and probably most anywhere else nearby too. Alright, well thank you so much. James, you have a great nap. We'll talk to you later, and good luck with both headphones on the Columbia Basin net tonight. Let us know how that all turns out. Let's go talk to Mike. He's somewhere between somewhere and somewhere. I think he said Seattle and Tacoma. K1MDR. Hey Mike. Hey everybody, how's it going? Yeah, I'm on near, just passing exit 152 right now. So yeah, I'm somewhere between here and there, but at the moment nowhere. So yeah, I just got myself a new radio today. It's a YESU FP150 RASP. And normally when I talk on this repeater when I'm down near Tacoma, it is all snaps, bops, crackles. And I don't clear up until I'm about in the Sea-Tac area, which I'm kind of coming near. But yeah, all through the tight flats I was listening in and just this, you know, it's still a little pop and crack here and there, but that ASP technology is just amazing. You guys were crystal clear. It sure beats what I was listening to last night with my little ICOM. So definitely have all sorts of good things to say about this radio. And I've only had it in my truck for about, I guess about 35 minutes now. So there's that. And tonight when I get home, I should be having a box waiting for me that will contain an older YESU FP100M or DR, whatever the numbers are, letters are after the numbers. And I'm going to use that to set up a WIRESX node out in the Spanaway area. So I don't have the ability to put up a large antenna or anything, but I'll get it up as high as I can. And since there is no WIRESX anywhere out in that area, I'm going to do my best to provide it. And yeah, that's about all I got right now. Just playing around with the radios and having some fun, doing a little model railroading in between. So anyway, this is Mike, K1MDR, and I'm coming up to 405 right now.
