I guess John had to go. We're going to Bill next. N9-O-F-U, Bill. Mike, it's yours, man. So did you have any more time to play with your glasses? Did you manage to get the image more dialed in? I know you were saying you were having trouble seeing the bottom of the displays. Did you manage to get that tilted and configured properly? Because I understand you can take the arms and you can jack them up and down to make it so that the position is a little different. And I think you can alter the nose pieces as well. I think it may have come with some more nose pieces. You can alter those and make it sit higher if that's an option for you as well. Go ahead, Bill. Nice to control. And I'll get back to that. Kevin was wondering why you have to have a hand license to get on Echolink. And I messaged him, but the main reason is because Echolink goes out over ham repeaters. I mean, you've got your repeater and Echolink's going out over that. So in order to be able to legally be on that repeater, you've got to have a hand license. But the Zello doesn't transmit over ham bands. No one's got it connected up to a repeater. So they don't need a hand license to go over Zello because it's not broadcast over ham repeaters. But that's the main reason why you need a hand license to get on Echolink, because Echolink is a very, very because Echolink is connected to the airwaves via ham repeaters to the air for 40, even 10 meters. So that was what I wanted to say about that. And guys, there was one other thing. And maybe it'll come to me after I talk about the glasses. I can turn it a little bit more. No, a whole lot more. Last couple of days of our visibility, trying to keep up with things. We were only supposed to come down to Vegas yesterday and they turned around to go right back, but they ended up asking us to go to California to pick up the business load because they needed to get it picked up and they were running out of options for people. 430 miles to go and seven hours and 21 minutes to get there. So it's gotta be tight. Might end up having to take 10 hours off and then go deliver it. Hopefully not. But so the, I had a hard time seeing when I connected to... To... I didn't. But it's a little more wide than it is tall. And I don't have any problems with that screen. But when I connected to the Samsung phone, it comes up with, I think it's called Samsung DX. And it gives me a computer-sized computer screen with applications on the screen. Let's come and grab one. All right, with a computer-sized computer system, take the monitor on the screen. And that screen is taller and not as wide. And that's when I get, you know, I have the problems down at the bottom corners with some of the screen contained out of view a little bit. So I have to maneuver a little bit with the glasses in order to see the bottom, bottom corners. But if I click on video and watch a video through the Android Samsung, and I'm able to see the whole screen, and I'm not struggling to see the bottom parts. And again, when I watch a video, for the most part, it's in focus. You can't really tell if it's too much out of focus. It's just when it gets into, if it's got a text, you know, if it's subtitled. So I can't really tell if it's in focus. And in that respect, that's when I have a little more problem with the clarity of the prescription there. So I haven't really focused on that too much. Because mostly what I'll be using it for is for watching videos. I don't know if I'll be back, you know, get up to the computer and use it that way. Now on the iMac, I have, if I have the iMac opened, well, the iMac's opened, I don't know if I can close it and still have the screen. And you wouldn't want to, because you want the keyboard. But you can see what's happening on the screen. It's just doing mirroring. But you can also set it up so that you can have, the glasses have the extra screen. You have an extra screen. And then you can move everything to that extra screen. And that extra screen will be blocked off from you. So you can have just your regular screen up on your computer but then have your extra screen and be doing all the stuff on the extra screen. That way nobody can see what you're working on on the computer. So there's that. But yeah, so far that's all I've been able to play with. When I did look at some of the ads, it did look like they had three screens up but that might be on a Windows computer. And I haven't connected it to my Windows computer yet. So I haven't had a chance to play with that. But while it looks like there was an accident on 15 South, the traffic is way backed up to back view.
