Good morning. I hope the rest of the week goes well. Yes, Rainier Shynet coming up on Saturday. I will be giving announcements in a couple of minutes. First we have Henry. I didn't catch all your copy. I copied all your copy. Henry, come back with your call sign and report please. N7JDJ just buried you now. Henry in Silverdale, Washington. Yes, I checked in this morning for a little bit of therapy. I just needed to come down a little bit. So I got a new Timmy toy at Ham Fest from Cammie and Robert. I love it. It's a Tynicy 7600. I'm going through all the settings and trying to get everything adjusted just right. And the one thing I didn't do was hook it up to my linear. And I got the cable for that. I could have built one I suppose, but in my old age I've become more of an appliance operator. So I sent away for one. It came in last night. But of course the Mariners and the Seahawks are playing. And that is a true juxtaposition of feelings between the two games. But then I woke up very early this morning and I started playing in the Ham Shack. And I was like, hey, let's hook up the other one, other radio. So I broke out a two position switch to go between the two radios to feed the linear, to feed the tuner out to the antenna. And I rerouted all the cables and reconnected everything. And I had it dead short and I couldn't figure it out. I brought out my antenna analyzer to see if the path was good, everything was good. But what I did do, didn't do was use my – I had the drawing of my cabling behind all the magic. And I thought I could do it from root memory. And I'm here to say, no I cannot. So it took about rearranging the shack and crawling behind there. And isn't it amazing no matter how much lower the cabling is, you see what that one port is that you're plugging into. So I had to break out a mirror and flashlights and yeah, well, there you go. But I had everything set to a point. I did radio checks on my nets on HF on both radios. And both radios both feed the amplifier down. So life is good. And my station managers are probably telling me they want to go take a walk. So thank you for listening to me. Thank you for listening to me. Oh no, it was a deer in the backyard. Okay. So back over to you Tim. Thank you for what you do. This is November 7, Juliet, Victor, Juliet.
