All right, well, what am I going to say about that? Oh, yeah, the UHF repeater. You know, it's funny, I don't use too many repeaters. I don't think I can think of one that's on UHF that I've used in recent times. I know I got a few programmed. I'd have to look to see who it was. But yeah, that's interesting. I'll have to look that one up maybe. Jack said there was a list I can get of all the repeaters. Oh, there it is from the repeater roundabout site. There it is, www.repeaterroundabout.com. And oh, look, I said last year we made it into QST magazine. So at any rate, I'm going to have to look at that list and see who's who. And check out, maybe there are a few new ones that I should add to my list to see what's happening on them. And oh, congratulations on thinking about HF. The biggest hassle of HF, if you ask me, is not the radio. It is the antenna, figuring out what you want, what you can fit, what will work for you, how high to get that darn thing. That's the real problem. Icom versus Yesu. Yesu, I'm rather eclectic. I've owned in the past. I had a Kenwood TS-520SE. For my handheld here, I've got a Yesu FT-70D, which I'm very, I just love that radio. I don't know if you can get it anymore, probably. But it's getting to be a little retro, but that's what I like about it. And then I have two Icom pieces of equipment, the 7300, which I just love, and the 705, which I just love. Except when you go outside, it's very hard to read the display in the light outside. That's the one thing I don't like about it. But any rate, that's me. Sounds like you're having a blast. Enjoy the roundabout, and enjoy the rest of your weekend.
