All right. Maybe Andrew has turned his radio off. But I will say that for the UV fiber minis that I have, I went ahead and programmed them with KERP. It was very easy to do. I did get the warning that said that use this at your own risk, but I didn't run into any issues. And there was no modules or anything I had to load. It just came in whatever the latest Chirp update was. I did play around a little bit with the Bluetooth programming on the phone. My experience with just most of those Bluetooth programming type things is that if you wanted to make a change to a channel or add a single channel, it's not too bad. It actually can be faster than adding one manually. But if you want to do a whole series of channels, Chirp is definitely a much, much quicker way to do it. And particularly on the UV5R Mini, you had to create a login to use the software on your phone, which when I was out in the field and went to actually do it, I had forgotten what the login was and was not able to do it. So there's my criticism there. But yeah, it's actually not too bad to program a radio. Anyway, Dan, are you able to come back That was your question.
