So, Moore got a KB up on station for RF. Kevin, that's DS. Hi, and now I think there was a station, and Ryan done quite enough to contact that station. I've got Tim and Ryan. Who is the other station? All right, we'll pick that station up at some point. Anybody else for the new net? Come ahead, call, sign a name. All right, let's get back to Tim, KI7ZEI. Good afternoon. Lo and behold, the sun is coming out here in Shoreline. Yes, there's a few clouds here and there, but also, apparently, some blue spots. They must be because I got sun shining on my balcony. So of the past packages that I found that were pirated the other day, I returned three successfully. Well, one, I made two stops at one last evening, and one during the day. And no one there yet, so I'll try that again this evening. or whatever. Anyway, let's see, just a minute ago we were talking about, what type are we talking about, Jack? There's something else. Radios, oh yes, radios that aren't released by the FCC yet. It was like eight months ago, that long ago? It was like a long time ago that I put in my reservation for the Kenwood D750, the tri-band mobile rig, and the last time I called DX Engineering, which is where I got my reservation, I asked him what the status was and he said no, no, they're not released yet but they had 35 in inventory already so apparently they are waiting for FCC or something like that. I think we had a slight delay there with the FCC for 40 some days or something, I don't know whether or not they'll ever get back on track. Now I see that ICOM's got their D5200 I think it is I had a D5100, and it's similar functionality to the Kenwood that I'm kind of, I think I mentioned before, buttons and knobs guide more so than the touch screen. So I'm sticking with the Kenwood. But DX Engineering and also Gigaparts, they're taking reservations on the D5200 from ICOM, if anyone's interested in that. And it also has gone to a black screen with white lettering versus the old LCDs. So let's see what else is new. I don't know, the sun is coming out more and more, so I've got stuff to do outside. I think I'll get out, KI-7ZEI.
