Yeah, good day, everybody. Tune in on the net if they tell all of you as well. Yeah, doing all right here. Kind of a gloomy, windy day here in Winnipeg, but just getting ready to head out for hockey. Hockey season is starting. So, yeah, that's what's taking up a lot of my time. That and volunteering with one of our local Army cadet units here. So I don't often get a lot of time to get on the radio. Didn't get a chance this weekend to do much contesting. Couple of contests Friday night. I like doing it, but more of just for fun. Downloaded a couple of different logging softwares and submitted some logs. If you've ever submitted a log that's got more than, you know, contacts on it, not trying to win any awards, just to kind of say I did it and try it out and kind of learn. And eventually, maybe one day I will. So I'm trying to get a little bit of experience. And at this point, just really just kind of taking the time to just enjoy it when I can. So, yeah, nothing serious here, but, you know, if you don't do it, you won't, right? So hardest thing they say once you get your license is actually get on the radio and talk. So just trying to make those efforts. All right. You have a great day as well as everybody else. VE4 and OL. Back to Matt. Nolan, thank you so much for sharing that. And those are big words of wisdom. I hear people saying all the time, oh, the repeaters are dead in my area. I'm always calling out. I call out so much that people feel sorry for me, literally. I call out when I'm driving to Ottawa. I'm from Cornwall. It's about an hour drive. I'm calling on a national calling frequency, calling on the local repeaters here in my Cornwall. And people will just, you know, they'll just break down and go, okay, Aaron, it's okay, yeah, yeah, yeah. We got you. We got you out there, VA3, EWV, your radio is working. And then I catch them, right? And then it's a 30, 40-minute conversation. Thank you, Nolan, for being out there. You have a good rest of your Sunday there. I guess what my question should have been is about those Js. I don't even watch any sports at all. I hear those Blue Jays are doing pretty good there. I guess they won something or going to a big game or something like that. If I was a sports person, I would have talked about that, but I'm not. All right. We're going to now do one last call for VE4, the West, VE3 East, Atlantic and the UK. We're going to move over to the USA. VE4 West, VE3 East and the UK Atlantic, please come now. Victor Alpha, let's give it.
