Hello, yeah, I doubled in there I kilo kilo seven Zulu Bravo x-ray Joel here in Kirkland and Yeah, plus one on the mesh core So it had ten more like Washington ham club hanging out saying today We a few of us brought some and we were talking about it. It's pretty cool Yeah, I like I like how it works and you can like someone someone earlier mentioned and how you can check how your routes go, you know, how you jump between repeaters, between nodes. It's pretty cool. I definitely recommend that. Yeah, big day today. It's the biggest radio day I've had. I'm not a ham for a year yet, but this is the most radio I ever had in one day. I didn't even get to use one of my radios. I didn't get to use a 220 today. I'll do it tomorrow. I'm too tired. And there was also the Simplace net, so wow, what a day. And, um, yeah, so, you know, like, um, I think, um, I may have been in one of them. I'll call it a flash mob thing that, um, uh, you know, uh, Jack RMU and, uh, Dan, or why I, you may have been in one of those with me where we go to reappear and there were 10 of us. And I really appreciate how hard it is to just keep track of call signs and things like that and pulling them out. And, uh, I don't know how they do it on the simplex net either. So So it's PritneyK7ZBX. K7ZBX, K7WFD. Yeah, I'm sure I have you in the log from Repeater Roundabout, and I was in a number of those flash mobs. So it's a good term for them. I never know what they call them, where just for those who aren't doing it, a gang of hands will be on one frequency and sort of exchange signal reports, and then we agree as a group to move to another repeater and do the same thing. So it's very efficient you're picking up lots of contacts in a real quick and efficient way. It's a lot of fun. It's just plain addictive. If anybody is thinking about maybe taking a look at it tomorrow just for the hell of it, you don't have to send a login or join the contest, but just to play with it. It's just fun. It's kind of teamwork. It's very – your competitors in the sense that you're in a contest, but it really promotes this kind of teamwork and good networking procedure and stuff. You feel kind of good about your skills or at least you're developing your skills. So it's kind of cool. Very good. Thank you Joel. We had an I.O. from Argentina which was just way cool and that rounds out round 2. Let me just look at my list and make sure I didn't mess anything up here. Okay, I'm going to drop for a second and this is the traditional point for the announcement. So I'm going to drop and come back for the announcement.
