Good afternoon, gentlemen. I can only get this repeater some days and some days I can't, so when I can get it, I try to check into any mess that's going on. I'm here in Graham. Not too much going on. I'm trying to figure out a problem with Whisper. When I transmit once and then when I go to transmit again, it won't trigger the transmitter. So I have to exit out and bring it back up and then transmit next and then it will transmit again. So I'm trying to get it working so I can kind of leave it on and just keep sending out a beacon and see how propagation is. But other than that, not a whole lot going on. I have a DX60 here, a heat kit, and I got two new crystals for it. I'm crystal controlled on it at the minute, at the moment. So I'll be able to use that on some more frequencies. Other than that, not a whole lot. Beautiful moon last night. I pulled out the telescope. Took a gander at our moon through the telescope, tried to get a couple pictures by holding the phone up to the lens, and a couple of them turned out alright. But other than that, just messing around on HF. I work nights, so I'm going to sit here around with some digital modes here for a few before I go in, had a good new year, didn't do a whole lot, worked the first part of the night, and then got the rest off. But not a whole lot going on here, just thought I'd check in, keep you neck going, keep people chatting, and hopefully everybody's having a good year, and hope you guys get those meters ready, solutions sorted out and done. So back to you, KK7SWD, Lane and Graham.
