Yeah, WB4 JEE from Golf Whiskey 8 Sierra Zulu Lima. Okay there Hollis I remember the name and then once you mention the fact you checked in previously with Graham I had a call sign there Jogged my single brain cell as well, so yes And I got you made a note as well that you're over in Sand Mountain, Flat Rock, Alabama I called it up actually on there on the actual on Google and a quick look at the Wikipedia as well. And a little picture there, the post office in Flatrock as well. Really, really interesting and I'll have a more in-depth read of it afterwards. Local time here now is 12 minutes past midnight. We're off, of course, on UTC. You're six hours behind us if you're on central time. So, there we go. Yeah, because I'm just having a look. It's elevation according to the wiki I'm looking at is 1,365 feet or 416 meters Total population as of 2010 was 3,914 so now Sounds like a really nice place to be you know Some of the place that I would like to be nice and quiet and especially if you're on top of the mountain as well Flat rock might be actually on top of the mountain itself so I Yep, it is. I'll just scan down the geography on the wiki. Flat rock is located on top of the sand mountain. Flat rock covers a land area of 86.278 square miles and a water area of 0.007 square miles. I'll have a more in-detail read of that tomorrow, I think. They're heartless. But great to hear from you. Absolutely great. Yeah, Graham now runs the the first hour and a half, hour and fifty minutes of the net, depending. An hour and a half goes past, and he shows up the check-ins on his list to go through, he'll continue to finish the list, and passes it over to myself there. So there's two of us actually running the net now, because the net was growing, and growing, and growing, and growing. And morning to actual Robert as well, VK2D, while he was just putting morning on the blue screen on the blue screen on net logger. So, yep, I will add Richard as well. I've seen the pink line move. So, I got visual on the blue screen, so no problems, but anything goes on there, Graham. So, that's how things are working at the moment, because I think the longest time this net has run for is about four and a half hours there, Hollis. Back to you my friend from 2W8. This is repeater station kilo kilo 7 November Quebec November all-star node 6222. I call one net here and actually it's in Dade County net. I'm about four or five miles from that repeater here. Now I'm on echo length there's no connections to repeaters for this net but trying to give them to put it on one of the repeaters but I never got a response so So I thought, well, I can do it on Echo Link. It's the one way to do it. And also, the audio is really good on Echo Link for me. But I do like it up here. Flat Rock is kind of spread out. I have a friend that's a ham, lives over. He used to be one of the emergency management people. And he retired last year. And that's where I got the trailer. I bought this trailer from him, this camper. And he's a real nice guy. And I've got a couple of friends that live up here. I didn't know how many hams there were up here. There's a few. But it's a very spread out county. And Flat Rock is very spread out. I asked them one time where Flat Rock came from, the name. And I've yet to get an answer. So someday I may find out, you know, but I haven't found a flat rock up here yet. So, back to you, WV4JEE.
