Oh, thank you, thank you, yeah. Well, I've been dragging my feet on that project, but I thought that might be a pregnant moment to bring the command quarter over here if you have a chance to take in a little bit of time with neighbors and other ham friends here at the house from three to six today but uh no hurry they've sat in my drawer for years maybe sometime in the next month we'll uh we'll be able to uh to take a look at them and and digitize them if that is if you have lucky if you get lucky fixing it uh so i had a little little bit of good luck.
