Yes, so Xfinity, formerly Comcast, they have a cell phone service. And I've had that for about five years. And what I did originally was I went with this thing where you would get your – it was really cheap at first. And you would get data by the gigabyte. It would be like $12 per gigabyte. And for a long time I really wasn't using much data, but I just kept finding myself going over the cap, especially if I went on a trip or something like that. But basically what Xfinity does, they don't have their own network. They piggyback with Verizon. And Verizon is a perfectly fine carrier. But one of the problems with it is when I go visit my sister down near Portland, she lives on this big hill on the Washington side. It's Camas, Washington. And the only thing that works up there is T-Mobile. So that's one reason why I got T-Mobile. But anyway, to answer your question, yes, you can get cell service from Xfinity, but it just seemed like the time was right to make that the clean break. KG70DB. KG70DB, K7WSP. Well that's interesting. I just never knew about that they had service. Actually, I've been a T-Mobile subscriber on that 55 plus plan. You mentioned, gosh, for a long time, because I'm well past 55 plus. And I really thought the service was very good. What I particularly liked is that it works really well when you're traveling internationally. They've got pretty good service pretty much everywhere. I'm trying to think how it works. You get some data. You get some like 5GB of roaming data and free text and like 10 cents a minute phone calls, I think, something like that. And as soon as your plane lands and you get out of airplane mode, a little text message pops up and they say, welcome to Timbuktu. You have mobile service now. I really like that feature of it. Anyway, I'm sounding like an add to now though. Let's see, we talked to Dean. We had an I.O. from KK72ES, Justin. I wonder if there's anybody else still hanging around who wants to say hello. This is K7WSP. And this is the Puget Sound Repeater Group 9 p.m. Social Net. We're somewhere in round three, I think. We answered it somewhere. Come ahead now with your call sign in main.
