Hey, morning there, Joe in the net, KK7Z net control. And we can't forget K7BCM, I always like to acknowledge and recognize her as well, even if she doesn't come around the radio much. Yeah, well, I remember my dad's call sign was Kilo Hotel Ospher 1594, and that was years ago back in the mid-70s or early 70s when they started getting into CV there in Ohio. And that kind of rubbed off on me, and the first handle was Groundhog, and I used to go by Little Fox when I was a kid, and I got my own CV in 95, and then I changed it. My CV handle was Mad Drummer, because I played the drums and stuff. So I'm really not mad, I'm really not mad on the drums, you know, like that. I'm really not a mad drummer, you know what I mean, frothing at the mouth, going cuckoo. But yeah, that was my dad's handle was Groundhog, my mom's was Sunshine, and there was a few others there, but I remember my handle being Little Fox, and my brother, I think he was Possum, and that was back in the 1970s era there. But I remember being known as Mad Drummer. And then when I got back into CV, it just, I don't know what got, it just went downhill with everybody on this local Trekker channel out here. Seventeen was known for a lot of people getting on there and, you know, talking dirty and everything else, it kind of got away from it. I find that people in amateur radio, they seem to be a lot more mature and a lot more sophisticated than CB'ers in some way, but the bulk of us were, from what I was told, the bulk of the Hams were at one time, CB'ers. So yeah, that's where I, that's what brought me into Ham radio was working with the CB a little bit. Hey, good net today, Joe, and keep up the good work and hey, give Lori a big hug from us and I won't keep it too long, but thanks again. Everyone else, let's, I want to thank you all for coming together like you do for this net and keeping it going. So let's keep coming back and keep up the good work as I always say. KK7Z from KC7YFE will send the mic back to you and let you get the others in here in the morning to Mel and the others that are coming up and those that have checked in top of the morning to all of you guys too. Have a good day, everyone.
