Yeah, well, we don't want to lose you, so I better not tell you that 80 meters and 75 would be like more your cup of tea or our cup of tea. Same with 160 and 40. Although honestly, I think 40 would be easier for you to hit. 75, 80 meters, you need an antenna made by God, I'm joking. But yeah, that's where your 1500 or 2000 or 3000 watts helps. And they're not using it to be the block. They're using it to get over that heavy, heavy static and noise flooring. Because the problem with HF nowadays is computers and Wi Fi and rotors interfere hardcore on those bands. So then what ends up happening is people have trouble talking with the low power. They have to really, really bump it up to be heard. But yeah, for what we're doing now, just exactly what we're doing right now, you'd like 75 and 80. In fact, if you got on by now, there's probably QSOs happening right now. We might not be able to hear them. But like, they have that on TARSnet, 3755. They should be on and popping. And there's the Canadian portion of it, right? I forgot the frequencies. It's 37 something, maybe 36. Yeah, I don't remember you got to ask. And it's all Canadians and they're just doing what well, if they're using the bands, they're doing what we're doing right now just kind of chewing the fat. And 80 you have a little bit of a leeway, like you can cuss. And you can do anything like that, as long as it is an interference. Right? Like you could tell somebody that they're a mayo. But you can't blast them out with music and loud carriers and beats. You just got to not do that. If I mean, if you do that, right? Like if you go on there with echoes, and Roger beats, someone's liable to tell you keep that bullshit on CB where it belongs. So yeah, the rag chew stuff, the conversational stuff would be more like 80, 80 and 40.
