Very good Mark. Well you know when you're working with these radios and getting them programmed and set up and everything else, and you know in the, well I suppose in the days gone by I've kind of just relied on myself just programming the radio direct, using the radio and the buttons and the knobs and everything else. But over the years I've got much more reliance, much more reliant on using the software, the programming software to, I don't do much updates, I don't really do firmware updates unless it's absolutely necessary but certainly the program and the frequencies and this and that and all the parameters. So I find it much easier now on the computer. But it does mean sometimes, and I had a recent experience of it, I went back to an older radio, one of my older YESUs, the FT-1XD, and they tried to do something just using the keyboard on the radio and I'd forgotten entirely how to do it. I was trying to program a couple of different bits and pieces and change things. And I ended up just plugging it into the computer, getting the software off and just doing it. Because I'd actually forgotten. Of course once I did that I remembered, I now remember what I had to do. So there we go. But these things are trying to try us there Mark. And hey listen, we're learning all the time. Sometimes we're forgetting all the time as well. That's the issue I have. Anyway Mark, thanks so much. And I think you mentioned a good idea with your aunt and another family member and going somewhere to eat. So I'm just being nosy now. I'm still being nosy. So Mark, where are you going to eat sir? And what do you think is going to be on the menu? Go and make us salivate sir. Make us salivate. KC8FTV from GM0ETV.
