We're getting down to the short list portion of the program. Dan, you're up first. Hello and good morning, W70H. Well, good morning, all. So fine day. I'm usually not up this early, which is not good, I know. But I am today. Partly I got up because Lois always hauls the garbage out from where it is in the driveway in the morning on Friday mornings. And she did a lot of purging this week. I want to make sure the cams got out because she was leaving to go to a conference somewhere, either to call Mark on her way. And I wondered, gee, did she forget? So I decided I'd better get up, go out, check. Going out to the car, I might as well come out. So I'm coming out to get a breakfast sandwich. And nothing really exciting, really, the purging Lois did. Now I can get to the cabinet I had a bunch of stuff in. I haven't been able to get to for several years because the room was filled. Anyway, gee, nothing much else. I found on my Yaesu FT-5DR, the little handheld, gee, when I tried to listen to the Blue Angels, they're on AM, of course, aviation radio. And if you go to that 200 megahertz band, it's like, oh, it was always F. Oh, I could change it. It was just deep in the menu and didn't default to either way. Anyway, not that it's going to be a benefit now unless I go down to McCord or an NAS Whidbey or something to listen. But that was an interesting feature I found on the radio. And I also found, gee, it's the best handheld receiver I have. When other handhelds are just being a little scratchy and not getting a great signal, it receives great. And using the same antenna for comparison. Anyway, that's about it. So I hope the folks going down to Gig Harbor have a good day down there. It's a nice day. So if you don't overburden yourself, you have some time to peruse around town, go to the tides. Haven't been there in years. Anyway, I'll say 73, everybody. Be well. W70H.
