And that goes to 38KKY. You need to get back to me. Yeah, I'd really like those emu eggs. That would be really nice, because I think that would be great for a turkey. Of course, the ostriches wouldn't like the emus. They don't get along, I don't think. They're not even the same, right? So they won't hang, they won't breed, none of that. They'll just kick the crap out of each other. Like the two little, well they're not little, but the flightless birds. And they're doing a culling on those ostriches in British Columbia. And it's strange, because at first you wouldn't think they would have, like Canada naturally, would have ostriches. And so, but yeah, it would be nice to have like an omelet, like from the ostrich eggs. Or maybe one of the ostriches can be like our family turkey. Yeah, that's AR Newsline. California does once a week, they have their audio news magazine, which is a publication for amateurs. A lot of people that I used to know that did that podcast have passed. So I am like thousands of editions behind. Like probably the last time that I was actually listening, they were on edition 14 something, which was like 2007, 2008. I can't even imagine where they are now. I think I'm thousands of editions behind. So someone has created a link on Echo Link where they play the latest edition. So it's good that there is that. There's other ways, they're in the podcast directory somewhere. But one thing that will be interesting since I'm so far behind is to just get old ones. But you can't get super old ones. Like I'd like to even hear, hell, they've been around since the 70s. I'd like to hear really old school ones. But on the California tip, about California, I've asked this question a lot of times and I wish someone could tell me, if someone could look it up and tell me. Is Roy Tucker still alive? I forgot his call sign. He has too many call signs. He has a whole throng of call signs. He was in trouble for having a whole throng of call signs. But I don't know what call he prefers. But if anyone even knows, like even just doing a name search. But anyone in LA area that gets on locally. He was just a very fun guy, fun net controller. He was talented. There was no such thing as a short net when he controlled the net on the 435 machine. I think one of his calls was W6NUT and he used it to reflect the repeater. I don't know his personal call. I think there was a while he used N6TK. But he was known at the time, this was in the 2000s, like 04, 05, 06, 07. He was known as the crazy octogenarian. I don't know. Let's say if he was 84, 85, 86, I don't even know his age. Let's say if that's what he was in 04, 05, he would be like at 20 to that. Somehow, my gut feeling, I don't think he is. I mean we get California people on here, but I don't know if anyone around those areas would know. I lived on a place close to Contractors Peak. And then I think for a while he lived near that area. But see like, he was an old ass man when I could hear him locally already. Like we are saying in the 90s, he wasn't an octogenarian then, he was in the 70s. And so I had little short stints in the LA area. Our California relatives aren't in LA, so it's kind of going out of the way. But there was a short while I lived there. So yeah, if anyone knows the whereabouts of Roy Tucker, I just simply want to know if he is still alive. And if you are in LA, he is to the airwaves the way Chris Rock is to comedy. So like if you live in LA and you don't know him, you must not really get on 2 meters. It would be like saying you don't know 435. Then again, you must not live there or you must not get on 2 meters. Okay, back to net.
