Ah, V3 STB, just hold on there, don't be running off and all that. I know it's your birthday, sir, but hey listen, we might have a wee question for you, so just don't be running off there. This is of course a lag tune night here, and you've checked in, so we'll hang on to you just a little bit longer on your birthday, if you don't mind, sir. And good comments there about Windows 10 and End of Life, and apparently October 14 for the updates, the security updates that is. But of course my question is more to do with just the practical things, like some of the software and different bits and pieces I'm running on Windows 10 that's associated with amateur radio. And you know in the early days when Windows 11 came up around, people were saying, oh this doesn't work, that doesn't work, it's not compatible, so I'm not too sure. Before I update, I just want to make sure that all my kind of, anything I'm operating on the PC here will still be compatible, or else hey, it could be a problem. That's all. That was my question. So there we go. But no, I've got another question, and you've kind of set it up there, sir. I don't know, maybe you're bragging, I'm not too sure, but a gym shirt. You've got a brand new gym shirt after 30 years. You didn't even say it's a different size. I think you're kind of hinting it's the same size after 30 years. And you know, you and I, we're not too far off in the similar kind of ages. We're both now kind of newly, in the last few years retired and everything else. Of course I'm saying, well, I haven't outgrown my cult, my cult outfit. My cult has shrunk in the wardrobe over the years. That's my story, and I'm sticking to it. And there you are out there, Doug, saying that you're getting a new gym shirt after 30 years. But I think you're kind of hinting it's going to be the same size as it was 30 years ago. Hey listen, if we compare notes, it might be a little bit different. So are you kind of just boasting and bragging on your birthday? I don't know. Back to you Doug from GM0UUD. Well, I've always been the same size since I was in my 30s. And yeah, it's the same size gym shirt. When I was working from 2010 to 2020 during that period, I did gain a bit of weight. But I've lost about 25 pounds since I retired, and I've lost about 10 of that in the last year or so. I'd still like to get down a little bit more, but that's fine. But it's more about health than weight. I'm comfortable with my weight. I can hike and I can chin myself and I can still do push-ups. I do all the weight machines and all that kind of thing. I'm still okay for an old guy. This is my 69th birthday. And things are still working relatively well. The 5-year, 50,000-mile warranty has long expired. But with maintenance, the car will be maintained. Back to you from VE3X-TV.
