I'm out here in the smoking lounge. You know, I just... I mean, you know, it turns out a juvenile... Rob American Rabbit sounds a lot like a juvenile song girl, or a juvenile, uh, junko, dark-eyed junko, or... Yeah, it's, uh... Yeah, like... And, oh yeah, Bardall sounds like a long, open-willed night, and then it swings up at the end of it. I found that on the, uh, uh, Berlin website. Just kind of went through the calls for Bardall and found that. American Robin that just kind of identified it in a Canada goose. I heard, I don't know, I haven't heard a goose here ever. And I've only heard and seen a heron, and there's a Blue Heron Rookery, largest in the state, right here, about half a mile, quarter mile long from me. And yet, I've only seen a pair and heard them overhead once. They fly about a half a block apart, or a short block apart, and honk at each other, alternating. Felt like a goose on Drano. Anyways, back to the net, and birds are fun and interesting, and we'll talk more later. GZ 7VU. Good night, y'all. Good night, Mike. And, um, yes, we had a Bardall. Our camp in the Upper Peninsula was within a certain Bardall range, and I did a great recording of them. I called out to it, and it got very territorial, and very frighteningly, honing back at me. And I got it in high-fidelity stereo. At 320 kilobits per second, field recording. And, uh, but I have no idea where that recording is. I hope I haven't lost it. And, uh, my favorite Upper Peninsula bird sound are the downhill cranes. They sound like dinosaurs. Anyway, at least in my limited understanding of reality, it seems to me that's what dinosaurs would sound like. Alright, so I'm going to read some announcements that are custom-made for me every week by Jack right here at Saturday, July 26th. Radio Club of Tacoma hosts their open house from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Club members and their guests, hams, and all visitors interested in amateur radio. Uh, it's good, folks. I've been to, uh, one or two of them, and they're really nice get-togethers. Also Saturday, 26th, PSRG Annual Picnic at Magnolia Park. The sign-up sheet is live at PSRG.org. I'm looking at a message that just crossed Saturday. Also July 26th, a Simplex net, which is now at 146.56 MHz, um, is at 20 hours on Saturday. So be there or be square. PSRG Season 7 Episode 4 and 5 Rain or Shine Noon net at Ice Cream Social Sunday, August 10th. And that is going to be the east side of Green Lake, just north of the paddle boat rentals and Green Lake Cafe concession stand. It'll be hosted as a new net by Kami, KJ7RAB, and Robert, Robert, KJ7JXM, and stop by the net tables and pick up your ice cream ticket. Yes, that's right. Everyone will be able to get a complimentary ice cream. Redeem your ticket at the Green Lake Cafe concession stand across from the paddle boats. Come back and hang out with your ham friends, walk around Green Lake, take a bike ride or rent a boat. Ham's in 3D and ice cream. What to bring?
