Well, good evening Brian and everybody on that. Thank you for taking my check in. I think this is the first time I've joined you. I'm located a few hours from the home of the Blue Jays north of a little town or city called Kingston, Ontario. So I'll say good morning Ontario. Very much a pleasure to be able to join you in that this evening in my career, which I retired from only about a year ago. I traveled quite extensively throughout the United States and including Seattle, almost every major city I think over the course of my career. And I guess I fell in love with San Francisco. So I had some folks on from San Francisco this evening. So by far, I guess my most favorite city. I did enjoy my time in Seattle as well and all along the west coast of the United States and met some great people and had some great experiences all throughout your country. So anyway, just thrilled at an opportunity and I actually have relatives in Seattle. So they're Canadians but living in the US for quite some time now. And yeah, well, thank you for the comment on my shack. Actually, it's grown a little bit more from that photograph as I have added additional nodes, including a DMR repeater station and a number of other things. So I really enjoy the hobby, both electronic aspect of it because I'm an electronic engineer by background. The most important part I enjoy the most is that exactly this being able to talk with new people from different parts of the country and especially the United States. And I really enjoy the content and listening to your necessary. So I'll stop there. And again, thank you for taking my check in this evening. And it's a real pleasure to be part of it this evening. So I'll put it back to net control from the E3 KJN here in Ontario, Canada. Hey, well, good stuff. Welcome. Welcome, Kevin. Yeah, we call this the nine o'clock net. We do this actually 9am and 9pm, seven days a week. But of course, it's Seattle time, so Pacific time zone. We also have a new net that happens seven days a week, but also Pacific time. And this is a very, very active repeater on top of that. I see that you are joining through a hub, East Coast hub, the Fireside Radio Network East Coast hub. It looks like that, I don't know if you're connected, if there's a connector through Echo Link or All Star, or even DMR. I'm not sure how you're getting in there exactly, but feel free to connect directly to our repeater here. All Star notice 2462. I'm forgetting the Echo Link, I pulled it up, but I think you were coming through All Star. Yeah, feel free to connect anytime. And we'd love to have you join us again there, especially if you've got some family here and whatnot. We also do a lot of in-person events and stuff. And so we do have people who literally fly up from other places for some of our events and stuff. So anyway, it'd be great to have you around. So feel free again, join us anytime. I'd love to catch you down the log. So thanks for joining us, and have a great night there. All right, two more on this round. Steven, over to the Philippines we go for G1, NYS. How are you tonight Steven? Or I guess, how is your, what is it? It's about one o'clock in the afternoon, or almost there I think. How is your Monday? Please come ahead with a report.
