evening, but uh, yeah,
eclipse is Monday, April eighth. I

43
00:03:01.199 --> 00:03:05.599
have some plans for that, but
those plans might change due to weather.

44
00:03:05.680 --> 00:03:08.000
So I'm going to talk about that
with everybody once we get everybody on the

45
00:03:08.560 --> 00:03:13.159
live stream here. But the solar
eclipse q SO party is happening. That

46
00:03:13.360 --> 00:03:15.439
is here in the chat, so
you guys go check that out. If

47
00:03:15.439 --> 00:03:19.080
you missed Frank's live stream, he
interviewed one of the guys from HAMSI so

48
00:03:19.120 --> 00:03:21.560
that that was fun to watch.
I watch part of it, and then

49
00:03:21.599 --> 00:03:24.919
the following weekend after that, we
are headed to Springfield, Missouri for the

50
00:03:25.080 --> 00:03:29.039
more Overlanding and off Road Expo.
Now I've been to this, this will

51
00:03:29.080 --> 00:03:32.879
be my third year to be here. Several of several of the guys that

52
00:03:32.919 --> 00:03:38.319
you will recognize from the chat will
be attending with me. Kyle tim from

53
00:03:38.400 --> 00:03:44.960
gray Man Poda, Freddie Mack Frank
will be there. Robert W five I

54
00:03:45.039 --> 00:03:46.960
TR will be there from Digital Rancher. So we're gonna have a good Ham

55
00:03:47.039 --> 00:03:52.199
radio presence at this overland show.
And I'm going to be doing a class

56
00:03:52.199 --> 00:03:55.319
on Ham radio versus GMRIS versus CB
and just kind of talking about how they

57
00:03:55.360 --> 00:03:59.759
all fit together and whatnot. So
that's going to be a very fun show

58
00:03:59.759 --> 00:04:02.360
as well. That is April nineteenth
and twentieth, about three weeks from now,

59
00:04:03.000 --> 00:04:06.240

you guys go check that out if

60
00:04:06.319 --> 00:04:10.520
you are able to come to that
shit. It's a fun show. It's

61
00:04:10.560 --> 00:04:14.280
a fun show. Again, weather
contingent a little bit, but it is

62
00:04:14.319 --> 00:04:17.399
a fun show if you're into off
roading, overlanding, and getting Ham radio

63
00:04:17.600 --> 00:04:24.800
into these adjacent topics. That's why
we do that. Okay. So I

64
00:04:24.800 --> 00:04:29.839
saw Frank pop into the chat,
so let me switch this over here and

tomb is empty and all that,
and that's awesome and I'm happy for that.

108
00:07:24.759 --> 00:07:28.319
We went to church this morning,
went down to Clarksville, Texas.

00:07:28.480 --> 00:07:32.360
My in laws are down there,
and we had a big feed and kids

00:07:40.439 --> 00:07:45.160
look, and I mean, we'll
get all this out in a minute.

112
00:07:45.360 --> 00:07:46.959
They said, look, Richard,
you're gonna have to go ahead and

113
00:07:48.199 --> 00:07:53.319
do this. So I'm not ready. I'm still not ready. The new

114
00:07:53.360 --> 00:07:57.920
website's not ready. You know,
I'm sending emails. Hey, big news

115
00:07:58.000 --> 00:08:01.120

116
00:08:01.160 --> 00:08:05.160
few months ago and you said,

117
00:08:05.199 --> 00:08:07.480
news, you know, be sure
and let me know and we'll bring you

118
00:08:07.519 --> 00:08:11.920

sent you a text or something and we

119
00:08:11.959 --> 00:08:16.240
talked Friday, and I see it. It's about to happen. You said

120
00:08:16.360 --> 00:08:20.560
when May first. I said,
no, Monday, you know, April,

121
00:08:20.600 --> 00:08:24.399
April first, April. We can't
do it on April first because everybody

122
00:08:24.439 --> 00:08:28.199
would thinks of joke for April four. So this is no joke. It

123
00:08:28.319 --> 00:08:33.399
is so big, This is big, big stuff. It's gonna shake the

124
00:08:33.559 --> 00:08:41.519
whole Ham Radio girls. Jason,
Okay, all right, all right,

125
00:08:41.600 --> 00:08:43.320
dude, all right, well whenever
you're ready, man, I know people

126
00:08:43.320 --> 00:08:46.600
were biting, chumping at the bell
already. Are you all really ready,

127
00:08:46.639 --> 00:08:50.879
because the news is about to break
right here, right now, all right,

128
00:08:52.279 --> 00:08:56.039
two months ago. Let's just back
up to the beginning. Two months

129
00:08:56.039 --> 00:09:01.240
ago or three months ago or whatever
it was. I mean, I'm sitting

130
00:09:01.240 --> 00:09:05.399
at my little day job and scrolling
the internet and doing what I do,

131
00:09:05.960 --> 00:09:11.480
and this guy emails from Italy.
He says, hey, Richard, you

132
00:09:11.519 --> 00:09:16.679
don't know me, but have you
ever heard of experts amplifiers. I said,

133
00:09:16.799 --> 00:09:20.279
yeah, I heard of him.
He used to be a guy here

134
00:09:20.320 --> 00:09:28.200
in Texas that rep those. And
he said, yeah, we're looking to

135
00:09:28.279 --> 00:09:33.120
set up another distributor. There a
distributor. There is a difference between a

136
00:09:33.200 --> 00:09:39.080
distributor and a dealer. We're a
dealer. My little company's been in business

137
00:09:39.120 --> 00:09:43.919
for what almost fifteen years is we're
a dealer for Yazoo Icon, Kenwood,

138
00:09:45.559 --> 00:09:50.399
a Linko, MFJ and Marytron and
lots of other stuff. And I can't

139
00:09:50.399 --> 00:09:54.639
even remember it all right now.
But he said, we need a distributor,

140
00:09:56.159 --> 00:09:58.639
and I said, we'll send me
the information. I mean, we

141
00:09:58.720 --> 00:10:05.480
get stuff like emails and text all
the time China and everywhere, you know

142
00:10:05.120 --> 00:10:09.399
what, you know whatever. I
didn't think much about it, but I

143
00:10:09.440 --> 00:10:13.759
started reading into it and all that, oh, you got the website up,

144
00:10:13.919 --> 00:10:18.399
got the website up, Lash deals
and yeah, Wood deals. But

145
00:10:18.519 --> 00:10:26.200
hey, look, so long story
short. I'm gonna try to make it

146
00:10:26.240 --> 00:10:31.440
short anyway. I don't know about
that. I look, here's the deal

147
00:10:33.279 --> 00:10:39.799
starting April first. That's tomorrow,
tomorrow. There's a brand new company that's

148
00:10:39.879 --> 00:10:43.919
about to be launched, a brand
new website. I can't even launch it.

149
00:10:45.000 --> 00:10:50.519
We signed like legal documents. Christy
has been Christine my wife. She's

150
00:10:50.559 --> 00:10:54.559
been so busy behind the scenes.
We formed a new LLC. Here it

151
00:10:54.679 --> 00:11:03.320
is. It's expert amps US,
a l l C. All right,

152
00:11:03.720 --> 00:11:09.759
there's gonna be a new website pop
up here early this week, maybe tomorrow

153
00:11:09.840 --> 00:11:16.960
if I can get busy tonight.
Expert Amps USA. I'm looking at her

154
00:11:18.000 --> 00:11:24.120
because I don't know. You know. It's experts dot com. Yeah,

155
00:11:24.320 --> 00:11:31.120
expert amps dot com. And we
are gonna handle all the cells of expert

156
00:11:31.159 --> 00:11:37.559
amplifiers s expert amplifiers. They're made
in Italy, all the cells from North

157
00:11:37.600 --> 00:11:43.440
America and Central America in the world. Baby, I mean, if you

158
00:11:43.480 --> 00:11:46.039
want them. But we're the distributor
for like, you know, this continent

159
00:11:46.080 --> 00:11:50.039
and stuff. It's gonna be big. I mean, this is gonna be

160
00:11:50.120 --> 00:11:52.879
so big. I said, I
don't even know what an expert amplifier is.

161
00:11:54.320 --> 00:11:58.679
So they said, anyone I hooked
it up, Jason, there's a

162
00:11:58.720 --> 00:12:01.639
little set up. I want sid
thing and all that. You set it

163
00:12:01.759 --> 00:12:07.440
up, it will take your hundred
watt radio and turn it into a fifteen

164
00:12:07.559 --> 00:12:11.559
hundred wat radio. It doesn't even
need a hundred watts. No, it

165
00:12:13.600 --> 00:12:18.360
takes like thirty watts or something to
drive it to full power. You can

166
00:12:18.399 --> 00:12:20.480
take it. You could take a
G ninety and get leave it or twelve

167
00:12:20.519 --> 00:12:26.840
hundred wats out of it a bit. What's a G nine kenwood Jazu and

168
00:12:26.200 --> 00:12:31.279
icon baby this? You can take
that and hook it to it, and

169
00:12:31.360 --> 00:12:33.840
you tell it. You go in
the thing and you tell it. I've

170
00:12:33.879 --> 00:12:39.159
got a kenwood and you can hook
two kinwoods to it. You can hook

171
00:12:39.600 --> 00:12:43.519
kenwood in an icon, a kenwood
in a Yasu, and it knows you

172
00:12:43.559 --> 00:12:48.279
can key up either mike and it
will y'all see my hands. I'm excited,

173
00:12:48.399 --> 00:12:54.360
you know, but it'll know,
it knows which mike and which radio

174
00:12:54.440 --> 00:12:58.799
is transmitting, and it'll go.
You can hook four antennas to it.

175
00:12:58.200 --> 00:13:05.080
I mean, I'm terribly excited.
This is not the old tube type honkers.

176
00:13:05.120 --> 00:13:09.559
You know that you have and all
that. If you have one of

177
00:13:09.600 --> 00:13:13.919
those traded in, traded in,
I'm gonna hook you up with a deal.

178
00:13:15.360 --> 00:13:20.879
So four antennas, two radios,
key it up, it'll go to

179
00:13:20.960 --> 00:13:24.639
the right antenna. It has a
built in antenna tuner, what meters built

180
00:13:24.639 --> 00:13:31.080
in. You're saving money right off
the bat It's a big deal. I'm

181
00:13:31.159 --> 00:13:35.799
sold. My customers are gonna be
sold pretty soon because this, I mean,

182
00:13:37.440 --> 00:13:43.039
this is the next generation of HF
power. This is not Russian tubes

183
00:13:43.039 --> 00:13:48.480
that you can't get anymore. This
is not three five hundred z's or three

184
00:13:48.840 --> 00:13:52.279
x eight hundreds that are five hundred
dollars apiece. This is the real deal,

185
00:13:52.919 --> 00:13:56.960
Jason. This, I am so
pumped up. I haven't been this

186
00:13:56.080 --> 00:14:01.480
excited. I am so excited.
I quit a six figure job to go

187
00:14:01.679 --> 00:14:07.919
do this. I must be insane. Christie is like, you have lost

188
00:14:07.960 --> 00:14:18.679
your mind. Maybe maybe I've done
it before. I'm jon I'm sorry that

189
00:14:18.559 --> 00:14:22.759
good man. That's awesome. That
is awesome. So okay, so people

190
00:14:22.759 --> 00:14:24.399
are asking, okay, so a
couple of things. Number One, I

191
00:14:24.440 --> 00:14:28.159
want you. I want you to
tell people about the case that it comes

192
00:14:28.159 --> 00:14:31.279
in you and I talked about that
a little bit yesterday, and people are

193
00:14:31.279 --> 00:14:35.120
asking the price of it and whatnot. But I know there's four different models,

194
00:14:35.120 --> 00:14:37.720
So why don't you talk about that? Oh my gosh, look,

195
00:14:37.799 --> 00:14:41.399
I think I've got to pull up
over here. There's right, yes,

196
00:14:41.519 --> 00:14:48.799
there's three. There's actually three core
models right now. There's a hang on,

197
00:14:48.960 --> 00:14:50.799
let me move this out of the
way. I've got too many monitors

198
00:14:50.799 --> 00:14:58.279
and stuff going here. There's there's
a one point three K model with the

199
00:14:58.320 --> 00:15:03.120
built in antenna tuner. All right. I'm not gonna tell you the price.

200
00:15:03.600 --> 00:15:07.600
I should, but maybe i'm not. It's under five thousand. We'll

201
00:15:07.600 --> 00:15:13.879
just say that under five thousand dollars, all right, which is a bargain

202
00:15:13.960 --> 00:15:20.320
at twice the price. And the
thing weighs the one point three K it

203
00:15:20.440 --> 00:15:24.480
weighs like eighteen pounds, not even
that. And it comes in a cool

204
00:15:24.519 --> 00:15:28.759
case. Ruby Jack's here, Ruby
Jack, hand me that case. She

205
00:15:28.919 --> 00:15:35.559
just daughter, y'all look at my
daughter, Ruby Jack. Can you see

206
00:15:35.600 --> 00:15:37.679
it? Can y'all see it?
Yeah? Yeah, she's in there.

207
00:15:37.799 --> 00:15:41.360
Yeah. Look. Oh. It
comes in this cool case right here,

208
00:15:41.600 --> 00:15:46.279
and you can carry it the amplifiers
in here. It weighs like nothing right

209
00:15:46.320 --> 00:15:52.159
now. I mean, it's crazy, and it runs on it when they

210
00:15:52.240 --> 00:15:56.799
come into me, it'll come in
with the European plug on it. I'm

211
00:15:56.799 --> 00:15:58.399
gonna hook you up. If you
want it to run on one hundred and

212
00:15:58.399 --> 00:16:03.279
ten or two twenty, I don't
care. I just change the plug or

213
00:16:03.360 --> 00:16:06.720
you can change the plug. And
if you want to take it on your

214
00:16:06.799 --> 00:16:11.799
d expedition down to I mean,
if you're going to Antarctica or tarks and

215
00:16:11.879 --> 00:16:15.159
Kkos or wherever you might be going, you can are the picnic table at

216
00:16:15.159 --> 00:16:19.879
the lake. I mean it weighs
like this. Look there's an amplifier in

217
00:16:19.919 --> 00:16:25.919
here, y'all. Wow. Yeah, there's no light and you can plug

218
00:16:25.960 --> 00:16:29.519
it in one hundred and ten or
two twenty, it doesn't matter. It's

219
00:16:29.519 --> 00:16:32.440
at home in the shack or out
on the park bench. Either one.

220
00:16:32.879 --> 00:16:37.519
That's the one point three K.
They make a one point five. It'll

221
00:16:37.519 --> 00:16:41.039
still run on one hundred and ten
and two twenty as well, and then

222
00:16:41.080 --> 00:16:45.639
they make the two K model as
well. I don't think that one is

223
00:16:45.720 --> 00:16:52.000
quite as portable as the other two
models, but hey, they are all

224
00:16:52.120 --> 00:16:53.840
awesome, every one of them.
I have a one point five in my

225
00:16:55.000 --> 00:17:00.919
shack. I'm fixed to put a
two K. And there's news of a

226
00:17:00.919 --> 00:17:04.160
a new model that's coming that's going
to be announced at Dyton, and it

227
00:17:04.279 --> 00:17:10.480
will be in my boot. The
president of spe Italy will be in my

228
00:17:10.519 --> 00:17:15.559
boot at Dyton. So I'm so
excited. I know you are. I

229
00:17:15.559 --> 00:17:18.880
can see it in your face.
You're excited too. You you won of

230
00:17:18.920 --> 00:17:22.400
course, Yeah, of course.
I'm always excited, man, I'm always

231
00:17:22.440 --> 00:17:26.119
excited. That's great. Okay,
all right, so we got at least

232
00:17:26.160 --> 00:17:30.880
three Yeah, I that is amazing. How lightweighted is I thought you said

233
00:17:30.920 --> 00:17:33.240
that amplifier was in that case.
I'm like, no, that's an empty

234
00:17:33.240 --> 00:17:41.039
case, dude, Come on,
it's stretched a little bit. Okay,

235
00:17:41.079 --> 00:17:44.839
all right, all right. I
was like, you can throw that thing

236
00:17:44.880 --> 00:17:49.799
and bounce it off your head.
Okay, but they're still not They're still

237
00:17:49.839 --> 00:17:53.599
not very very heavy. I don't
think right, no, they're not.

238
00:17:53.759 --> 00:17:59.480
It's like I think it's like eighteen
pounds for the one point Yeah, and

239
00:18:00.079 --> 00:18:03.440
you can really the case though,
this is like carry on. You can

240
00:18:03.519 --> 00:18:10.920
carry it on on the plane if
you're going somewhere or whatever, or yeah,

241
00:18:11.319 --> 00:18:12.960
put it in your glove box.
You got a big glove box and

242
00:18:14.799 --> 00:18:18.039
you know, I mean, go
to the park, have some fun,

243
00:18:18.160 --> 00:18:22.119
throw up an antenna or let's talk
baby. Yeah. So okay, so

244
00:18:22.160 --> 00:18:27.960
it'll run on ten twenty yes,
and that and you said you just you

245
00:18:29.359 --> 00:18:32.559
just have to change a plug for
that. So I mean that tells me

246
00:18:32.640 --> 00:18:36.920
that it's really kind of always one
one ten or one twenty and it just

247
00:18:37.000 --> 00:18:38.440
takes an adapter to going to the
two twin or how does that work?

248
00:18:38.599 --> 00:18:42.559
Well? Like I say, when
they when they when I get them,

249
00:18:42.640 --> 00:18:48.880
they come in with the European plug
right And by the way, I'm building

250
00:18:48.599 --> 00:18:55.960
like a staff of experts right now, experts. Right now. I've got

251
00:18:56.160 --> 00:18:59.839
service working out. I've got where
there's a guy in Florida. I have

252
00:18:59.880 --> 00:19:03.720
a guy out in Snyder, Texas
that I've known for thirty years. And

253
00:19:03.759 --> 00:19:07.880
then stuff that's happening right here in
Paris, Texas. When the amps come

254
00:19:07.920 --> 00:19:11.400
in, they come in with the
European plug on them. We take that

255
00:19:11.480 --> 00:19:15.759
off. I'm gonna put a two
twenty plug or one ten, whatever you

256
00:19:15.839 --> 00:19:21.880
need. But there's no jumpers.
There's nothing to change inside the amplifier.

257
00:19:21.920 --> 00:19:27.160
The power supply knows because it's a
smart amplifier, Jason, like Alexa and

258
00:19:27.240 --> 00:19:33.960
stuff. It's like smart and it
knows what voltage and if you get the

259
00:19:34.000 --> 00:19:38.720
cable, here's the whole beautiful thing
to the amplifier. There's a sky down

260
00:19:38.839 --> 00:19:42.480
I think he's in a livingstoner down
around there. That's Texas. By the

261
00:19:42.480 --> 00:19:49.599
way, Dan Tassel, Dan builds
the cables for him. He's done it

262
00:19:49.640 --> 00:19:56.279
for a long time, and you
take Dan's cable, hook it to that

263
00:19:56.400 --> 00:20:03.839
amplifier, hook it to your Kenwood. I can yazu. The amplifier knows

264
00:20:04.599 --> 00:20:11.759
how much power to pull out of
your radio through the ALC circuit. It

265
00:20:11.960 --> 00:20:17.319
knows, and it will drive it
to perfection. You cannot overdrive it if

266
00:20:17.359 --> 00:20:22.119
you use Dan Tassel's cables. I'll
have all this information on my website soon.

267
00:20:22.599 --> 00:20:26.079
It's a very smart amplifier. It's
way ahead of anything else out there.

268
00:20:26.440 --> 00:20:30.279
I'm sold, I really, I'm
so so. I told you I

269
00:20:30.359 --> 00:20:37.039
quit my job. I can't even
sleep at night. I believe it.

270
00:20:37.079 --> 00:20:41.200
I believe. I've seen you do
stuff like this before. So oh yeah,

271
00:20:41.319 --> 00:20:47.319
I take risk all the time.
And you said there was a people

272
00:20:47.319 --> 00:20:49.720
are asking about service. There's a
there's a guy in Texas that will service

273
00:20:49.759 --> 00:20:55.720
them also correct. Well, I'm
I'm not seeing the comments. I see

274
00:20:55.759 --> 00:20:57.599
there's like a million of them on
there. Yeah, a lot of people

275
00:20:57.680 --> 00:21:04.880
to yes. All right, So
right now, service, let's talk about

276
00:21:04.920 --> 00:21:14.160
that for a minute, because currently, as of March something, I don't

277
00:21:14.160 --> 00:21:18.160
know what it said. It was
earlier this week, the current distributor has

278
00:21:18.519 --> 00:21:30.599
ceased business operations. And I want
to assure everyone out there listening that your

279
00:21:30.799 --> 00:21:37.039
amplifiers are still under warranty. Richard
Lenore Main Trading Company will take care of

280
00:21:37.160 --> 00:21:41.240
all your warranties as long as they're
in warranty. I have. I've been

281
00:21:41.279 --> 00:21:47.920
talking to Steve in Florida. He's
going to continue to service him. I

282
00:21:47.960 --> 00:21:52.519
have another technician in training right now. He's out in Snyder, Texas.

283
00:21:52.559 --> 00:21:57.440
That's Paul Brady. He's a Ham, been a Ham as long as I

284
00:21:57.480 --> 00:22:03.640
have just about. And so that's
happening. There's gonna be two service centers

285
00:22:03.640 --> 00:22:08.319
here in the United States, and
maybe even a third before too long.

286
00:22:08.480 --> 00:22:15.160
So don't don't worry about the service. Richard's got you taken care of good

287
00:22:15.119 --> 00:22:19.359
in warranty or out of warranty.
That yeah, done, okay good.

288
00:22:21.039 --> 00:22:22.960
Yeah. And you said that there's
some guys that just they send them in

289
00:22:22.960 --> 00:22:26.200
for that, they send them in
for servicing when they don't even need it.

290
00:22:26.200 --> 00:22:30.319
It's like a tune up or something, just like like a once over

291
00:22:30.480 --> 00:22:32.960
check or something. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you know,

292
00:22:33.119 --> 00:22:37.799
I mean it's it's it's the coolest
thing. I mean there, I mean

293
00:22:37.000 --> 00:22:42.880
I've ran like old heath kits and
and stuff and tube types. I'll take

294
00:22:42.920 --> 00:22:47.480
them outside and blow them out with
the air hose or whatever, you know,

295
00:22:47.599 --> 00:22:52.200
a couple every a couple of years
or something. But these amplifiers,

296
00:22:52.279 --> 00:22:59.720
I mean you should you probably should. You know, if you're really taking

297
00:22:59.759 --> 00:23:03.319
them out to the beach or whatever, get them sucked full of sand and

298
00:23:03.839 --> 00:23:07.839
elements and all that, you probably
should send them in and have them serviced,

299
00:23:07.039 --> 00:23:14.519
you know, in an outdoor environment
and blow them out, clean them

300
00:23:14.599 --> 00:23:19.839
up, check everything, and we're
gonna get all that worked out as well.

301
00:23:21.039 --> 00:23:25.079
So you can send them in and
and have them looked at and cleaned

302
00:23:25.160 --> 00:23:30.279
up and tuned up if needed.
But there's really no need for if you're

303
00:23:30.319 --> 00:23:33.000
running them in the home and your
shock and all that. We don't have

304
00:23:33.039 --> 00:23:37.920
to do that very often. Yeah. Ever, I mean I've been reading.

305
00:23:37.240 --> 00:23:42.039
I've been lurking. I think that's
the term. There's a couple of

306
00:23:42.039 --> 00:23:48.319
websites. There's a Facebook group,
there's it used to be Yahoo, it's

307
00:23:48.319 --> 00:23:53.240
something else now I owe groups or
something like that for yeah, yeah,

308
00:23:53.359 --> 00:23:57.680
yeah, for expert apps. I've
been really lurking in there for the last

309
00:23:57.680 --> 00:24:03.279
couple of months, and you know, studying and reading and seeing what all

310
00:24:03.359 --> 00:24:07.160
is happening and and all that,
and yeah, a lot of people send

311
00:24:07.200 --> 00:24:11.880
them in just to just to have
them service and good. So we're gonna

312
00:24:11.920 --> 00:24:15.880
we're gonna offer that. We're gonna
offer that in warranty and out of warranty,

313
00:24:17.440 --> 00:24:21.359
uh service center here and real close
to Paris, Texas, and another

314
00:24:21.400 --> 00:24:26.319
one in Florida and possibly another one
a little further north soon. Good.

315
00:24:26.680 --> 00:24:33.440
Okay, Okay, I'm outscited.
I can tell yeah, Ham Radio Hobo's

316
00:24:33.440 --> 00:24:36.599
asking if it's dual moss moss feed
and I know you talked about that a

317
00:24:36.640 --> 00:24:38.400
little bit yesterday. Tell me tell
us about that. Yes they are.

318
00:24:38.640 --> 00:24:44.559
Hey, there's a new one that's
coming out, the Taurus. I have

319
00:24:45.000 --> 00:24:52.720
emails into Italy right now. But
yes, they these are uh dual moss

320
00:24:52.720 --> 00:24:56.799
fat amps and there's hey, there's
even a lot. I mean, two

321
00:24:56.880 --> 00:25:00.079
months, how long has this been
going? Going to Christy too much?

322
00:25:02.039 --> 00:25:06.480
Two months? Three months at the
most, That's all I know. I

323
00:25:06.519 --> 00:25:10.480
mean, whatever you can learn in
a few hours at night and just running

324
00:25:10.480 --> 00:25:15.799
them. I'm still a little green
on them, but I'm still learning.

325
00:25:15.839 --> 00:25:21.519
I'm reading every night and I'm running
mine pretty much every couple of days and

326
00:25:21.599 --> 00:25:27.680
learning the stuff so I'm there's there's
users. There's thousands of users of them

327
00:25:27.680 --> 00:25:33.400
out here in the United States and
North America right now. That they're way

328
00:25:33.559 --> 00:25:38.720
more of an expert on them,
expert by the way than I am.

329
00:25:40.240 --> 00:25:45.400
But I look forward to learning as
we go, and I'm gonna help my

330
00:25:45.480 --> 00:25:48.519
customers. I can't wait, and
I will talk more about that. I

331
00:25:48.559 --> 00:25:56.200
can't wait to help everybody get one
if they want one. Excellent, Yeah,

332
00:25:56.400 --> 00:25:59.440
awesome. I've got an idea about
how I can get one in my

333
00:25:59.480 --> 00:26:03.160
hand. So I talk to you
after the after I talked to that,

334
00:26:03.359 --> 00:26:08.160
you do, yeah, okay.
So people are a couple of questions about

335
00:26:08.279 --> 00:26:11.160
if they can go buy your store
sometime this week and pick one up,

336
00:26:11.640 --> 00:26:15.400
and also a question about datingham mention. So let's let's talk about that real

337
00:26:15.480 --> 00:26:18.640
quick. Are you going to actually
have him in hand, on in stock

338
00:26:18.720 --> 00:26:26.480
on him. Our first shipment should
come in mid to maybe the third week

339
00:26:26.599 --> 00:26:32.519
of April. You know, they've
been on order for I mean since since

340
00:26:32.720 --> 00:26:37.440
I first started talking about it and
all that, so about two months and

341
00:26:37.480 --> 00:26:44.000
then I've already I have another order
that's ready to go in now for delavery

342
00:26:44.160 --> 00:26:48.119
in June, and I'll fire that
email off in the morning. You can't

343
00:26:48.160 --> 00:26:52.119
come to my store and see them, not yet, but you will,

344
00:26:52.440 --> 00:26:57.000
you will soon. I will.
Here's I mean. I'm just putting it

345
00:26:57.000 --> 00:27:03.519
all out on the table. By
the way, we are not an authorized

346
00:27:03.559 --> 00:27:08.279
distributor or anything until April first.
Just need to get that out of the

347
00:27:08.359 --> 00:27:17.160
way. So just got to state
the facts and give us a price quote

348
00:27:17.240 --> 00:27:21.559
or anything right now. I'll give
you one if you want one. Whatever.

349
00:27:22.440 --> 00:27:25.400
A lot of people are asking for
prices, so you want to let

350
00:27:25.440 --> 00:27:26.799
that cat out of the bag.
It's it's up to you. Oh,

351
00:27:26.839 --> 00:27:32.160
I'm looking at them right now,
like on this screen over here, But

352
00:27:33.720 --> 00:27:38.839
why don't why don't we wait and
I will have that online. I just

353
00:27:38.880 --> 00:27:44.720
want to make sure everything is good. I will have that done this week,

354
00:27:45.160 --> 00:27:52.160
all right, And on the MTC
radio dot com website. MTC Radio

355
00:27:52.319 --> 00:28:00.160
will be a dealer for expert Amps. Expert Amps U s A is the

356
00:28:00.200 --> 00:28:04.400
distributor, which is our company too, so there'll be a separate website for

357
00:28:04.440 --> 00:28:07.880
that. Of course, you know
how MTC does business. We make deals

358
00:28:07.920 --> 00:28:11.480
and type trades and do all kinds
of stuff. If you'll just give me

359
00:28:11.519 --> 00:28:15.440
a couple of more days, I
wasn't quite ready. This was supposed to

360
00:28:15.559 --> 00:28:22.240
happen on May the first, not
April first, So I'm just not quite

361
00:28:22.279 --> 00:28:27.440
ready to launch. But you know, don't worry about the price. It

362
00:28:27.480 --> 00:28:33.200
won't hurt long. It's just money. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's

363
00:28:33.279 --> 00:28:38.759
just money. Okay, it's a
question by broken circuit ranch is the FCC

364
00:28:40.000 --> 00:28:47.440
type accepted? If so? Ten
meters is the fifty AM power supply from

365
00:28:47.519 --> 00:28:53.519
China. Let's just break those down. FCC type selected, Yes, approved,

366
00:28:53.960 --> 00:29:00.720
Uncle Richard only sales quality equipment approved
by the FCC. Ten meters Yes,

367
00:29:00.880 --> 00:29:06.759
ten meters works right out of the
box, right to Australia. On

368
00:29:06.920 --> 00:29:10.559
my I wish I could take this
camera, but it's wired. I want

369
00:29:10.599 --> 00:29:12.680
to take it in my shack,
which is like through that door right there

370
00:29:14.480 --> 00:29:17.519
and show you, but I can't. You know, maybe I can get

371
00:29:17.519 --> 00:29:21.039
on my phone or something in a
minute. I don't Yeah, maybe maybe,

372
00:29:22.160 --> 00:29:25.599
But yes, ten meters that works
out of the box, no problem.

373
00:29:25.920 --> 00:29:30.839
Fifteen hundred watts with the one point
five or the two K, thirteen

374
00:29:30.880 --> 00:29:37.759
hundred wants with the one point three
K and some I think you said something

375
00:29:37.759 --> 00:29:40.440
about a power sply. You don't
need a power supply it plugs in the

376
00:29:40.480 --> 00:29:44.440
wall one hundred and ten volt.
I'm old school. That's I guess that's

377
00:29:44.440 --> 00:29:47.960
one hundred and twenty votes now yeah, yeah, yeah, one hundred and

378
00:29:47.960 --> 00:29:52.240
twenty or two forty. Just change
the plug. Plug it in and go

379
00:29:52.759 --> 00:29:56.359
change change the plug. Change?
Are you change the adapters or the what?

380
00:29:56.799 --> 00:30:03.119
Look the correct power? Hang up? I stand by. I don't

381
00:30:03.160 --> 00:30:07.519
need to do this because I had
to do mine. Can y'all see this?

382
00:30:08.039 --> 00:30:11.799
Yes? I can't see it.
Yeah, that's that's that's the European

383
00:30:11.839 --> 00:30:18.119
plug. Look on this end of
it. I cut those off. They

384
00:30:18.160 --> 00:30:23.200
come in, I'm gonna change that
out and put a us A ANEMA UH

385
00:30:25.880 --> 00:30:30.480
type accepted plug on it, either
one hundred and ten or two twenty.

386
00:30:30.519 --> 00:30:36.200
I've already ordered those in. They're
coming. And when I get the amps

387
00:30:36.279 --> 00:30:37.680
in, I'm gonna check them out, make sure they're good. I know

388
00:30:37.720 --> 00:30:41.559
they're good from the factory, but
you know they come from Italy. That's

389
00:30:41.599 --> 00:30:45.000
a long boat ride over here,
right, So I want to make sure

390
00:30:45.119 --> 00:30:49.319
your ramp is good, and then
we're gonna ship them right out. I'll

391
00:30:49.319 --> 00:30:52.519
put the plug on it, your
choice, and is it the standard computer

392
00:30:52.599 --> 00:30:59.519
plugs on the amplifier end plugged.
It can be if you want one hundred

393
00:30:59.559 --> 00:31:03.880
and ten you know, or one
hundred and twenty volte whatever we can.

394
00:31:03.960 --> 00:31:07.680
We can put that on either the
one point five or the one point three.

395
00:31:07.839 --> 00:31:12.480
That's that's no problem. Cool cool. I like two twenty though.

396
00:31:12.519 --> 00:31:18.799
I like vaulted and watts you know. Yeah, find that in Texas,

397
00:31:18.599 --> 00:31:23.640
right right? Yeah? Good,
okay, okay, good? Uh that

398
00:31:23.799 --> 00:31:27.079
for me, y'all hit me with
some questions, man, I'm one about

399
00:31:27.519 --> 00:31:32.440
what about Belton? What about Belton? I love Belton, Texas. It's

400
00:31:32.480 --> 00:31:36.440
the greatest hand fast in Texas,
that's for sure. Well, they want

401
00:31:36.440 --> 00:31:40.400
to know you're going to be bringing
these to Belton. Probably not. We

402
00:31:40.440 --> 00:31:49.319
won't have them in in time because
because we don't officially expert amps, LLC

403
00:31:49.720 --> 00:31:56.359
does not officially exist until April first, so we will not see our first

404
00:31:56.359 --> 00:32:00.599
shipment until the second or third week
of April. So I doubt will have

405
00:32:00.680 --> 00:32:06.359
them there. But I will have
plenty of brochures and plenty of pricing and

406
00:32:06.440 --> 00:32:12.720
hand fast deals and all that at
Belton. Awesome. I saw a couple

407
00:32:12.680 --> 00:32:20.359
of questions. Does it have bluetooth? I don't think it has blowtooth I

408
00:32:20.400 --> 00:32:24.640
don't know of any amplifier that would
have Bluetooth. I don't know why you

409
00:32:24.640 --> 00:32:31.920
wouldn't both, but it will remote. You can plug it in to your

410
00:32:32.000 --> 00:32:38.480
network and you can man all you
guys. You guys out there in ham

411
00:32:38.680 --> 00:32:44.079
Radio and Cyberland, you know more
about this than I do. You plug

412
00:32:44.160 --> 00:32:49.880
it in to your network and you
plug your radio into your network, and

413
00:32:50.279 --> 00:32:54.039
Jason, you know all about this
remote roots and shacks and all that stuff.

414
00:32:54.359 --> 00:32:58.359
I mean, you turn the radio
on, the amplifier comes on,

415
00:32:59.000 --> 00:33:02.519
and if you're out there in cyber
Land on your phone, you can control

416
00:33:02.640 --> 00:33:08.640
the radio. There's programming software,
not programming remote software available that I'll have

417
00:33:08.799 --> 00:33:15.079
on my website. You download it
and you can remote right into your amplifier

418
00:33:15.160 --> 00:33:21.720
from anywhere on planet Earth. Baby. That's great. Yeah, no,

419
00:33:21.839 --> 00:33:23.480
that's it's good. It's good to
have. You know, I've always I've

420
00:33:23.519 --> 00:33:31.039
been wanting to take a radio the
next generation twenty that are crap. This

421
00:33:31.119 --> 00:33:35.160
is the deal, man, Oh
yeah, this is the deal. No,

422
00:33:35.279 --> 00:33:44.000
this is much better amplifier than an
amertron. But yeah, Meeritron amplifiers

423
00:33:44.000 --> 00:33:45.920
are good. There's nothing in the
world wrong with them, but this,

424
00:33:45.079 --> 00:33:49.160
you know, this one's lighter weight, solid state and all that kind of

425
00:33:49.160 --> 00:33:52.079
good stuff. So yeah, and
I don't think you can remote it America.

426
00:33:52.400 --> 00:33:57.480
More to Go first class, baby, yeah, more to go first

427
00:33:57.519 --> 00:34:01.519
class. That's right. Cost you
a side johnt up to Washington and back.

428
00:34:02.720 --> 00:34:07.759
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah,
no kidding. So what else,

429
00:34:07.759 --> 00:34:10.800
Frank, we got anything else?
How does it do the s w R

430
00:34:10.960 --> 00:34:15.559
match? This is from Wayne.
Oh. I am so glad you asked

431
00:34:15.599 --> 00:34:22.440
that, and I hope I can
answer it correctly. All three models,

432
00:34:22.840 --> 00:34:28.679
the two K and the one point
five K come with the built in antenna

433
00:34:28.719 --> 00:34:32.159
tutor. All right, So once
you go through, once you get the

434
00:34:32.199 --> 00:34:40.239
amplifier, I'm gonna have a document
on the website, a fast start deal.

435
00:34:40.400 --> 00:34:44.440
It's pretty easy. You go through, set it up with your radio.

436
00:34:45.079 --> 00:34:50.239
You can hook four antennas to it
or just one. You know a

437
00:34:50.280 --> 00:34:54.199
lot of m's like may you just
have one. You go through and set

438
00:34:54.199 --> 00:34:59.800
it up and you tune. You
go through every band. This is when

439
00:34:59.800 --> 00:35:01.760
you get it out of the box. You go through every band, go

440
00:35:01.800 --> 00:35:06.239
to the bottom of the band,
tune it, go to the top of

441
00:35:06.239 --> 00:35:08.880
the band, tune it, go
through all your bands that you're active on.

442
00:35:09.760 --> 00:35:14.840
It's done, and it has the
tuner built in. The wat meter

443
00:35:14.960 --> 00:35:17.880
is built in. You don't have
to have a five or six hundred dollars

444
00:35:17.880 --> 00:35:22.920
tuner or more that that will handle
fifteen hundred watts. You don't have to

445
00:35:22.960 --> 00:35:25.280
have a watt meter. You don't
have to have any of that. And

446
00:35:25.320 --> 00:35:30.559
then once it's set up, once
you change bands on your radio, if

447
00:35:30.559 --> 00:35:37.039
you get Dan Tassle's cable, by
the way, it will it will remember

448
00:35:37.199 --> 00:35:40.199
and it'll go right back and it'll
tune your antenna every time. The tuner

449
00:35:40.280 --> 00:35:45.440
is built in. Now, the
one point three K of the smaller amplifier,

450
00:35:45.599 --> 00:35:50.559
I say small, that's thirteen hundred
what that's not small, that's not

451
00:35:50.599 --> 00:35:54.800
a six hundred what rice box or
whatever? I mean? This is the

452
00:35:54.960 --> 00:35:59.039
deed one. I'm telling you.
I'm pumped. You can't get the one

453
00:35:59.079 --> 00:36:04.800
point three there without the antenna tuner
built in. But all three are the

454
00:36:04.880 --> 00:36:09.360
other the one point five and the
two K comes with the tuner. And

455
00:36:09.360 --> 00:36:15.199
and here's something pretty cool. The
one point five it's so far it's my

456
00:36:15.280 --> 00:36:23.920
favorite amplifier. I think it'll tune
antenna's with a five to one mismatch.

457
00:36:24.039 --> 00:36:30.840
I'm pretty sure. That's right.
Yeah, that's Justin Man. Justin he's

458
00:36:30.840 --> 00:36:34.920
in the chat and he's I kind
of got the impression he like works for

459
00:36:35.000 --> 00:36:39.760
him or something. I don't know. He's going to another we're letting out,

460
00:36:43.440 --> 00:36:45.840
he says. Yeah, he says, it's a five point it's a

461
00:36:45.880 --> 00:36:49.159
three point one on the two K
and the one point three one point five

462
00:36:49.239 --> 00:36:52.320
handle of five point one five to
one mismatch. So yeah, yeah,

463
00:36:52.599 --> 00:36:58.360
you're just to reiterated that a bit. You're tuning the tuner to the antenna

464
00:36:58.719 --> 00:37:01.039
and you're not tuning your radio into
the tuner, so when you tune it

465
00:37:01.159 --> 00:37:06.599
up, you're gonna be tuning on
the amplifier. I might have said that

466
00:37:06.679 --> 00:37:09.320
those uh that box wrong, but
you tuning from the the amplifier to the

467
00:37:09.360 --> 00:37:14.480
antenna, and then you you're not
gonna tune on your radio, gonna tune

468
00:37:14.519 --> 00:37:17.239
it on the amplifier, right,
Yeah, you just turn if your radio

469
00:37:17.280 --> 00:37:21.280
as a built in antenna tuner,
just turn that off. You don't,

470
00:37:21.360 --> 00:37:23.760
you don't need that anymore. Yeah, yeah, perfect, Yeah, just

471
00:37:23.800 --> 00:37:29.519
go. I mean, I have
a I wish I could take this camera.

472
00:37:29.519 --> 00:37:32.679
It's wire. We'll do it another
time if you want to. I'll

473
00:37:32.679 --> 00:37:37.320
show you my shack. I have
a Kinwood. I just if you cut

474
00:37:37.360 --> 00:37:40.360
me, I just bleed out Kinwood
everywhere. I'm a kin would you know?

475
00:37:42.639 --> 00:37:45.280
Yes? And but I have a
Kinwood nine to ninety in there and

476
00:37:45.559 --> 00:37:50.480
eight ninety. They're both hooked up
to the radio to the amplifier. And

477
00:37:51.360 --> 00:37:57.239
I mean you just you hit tune
on on the radio. I turned the

478
00:37:57.280 --> 00:38:00.880
tuner off. You hit tune with
Dave in Tassel's cable. By the way,

479
00:38:02.199 --> 00:38:05.840
are you going to sell those on
the new website once? I'm not

480
00:38:05.880 --> 00:38:08.199
going to sell them, Okay,
AND's gonna sell him. I'll have the

481
00:38:08.280 --> 00:38:14.639
link and how to get a hold
of him, and and and he is

482
00:38:14.719 --> 00:38:17.440
awesome And you know him? Do
you know Dan? No? Yeah,

483
00:38:19.159 --> 00:38:23.239
I might have met him. Yeah. I didn't think I knew him until

484
00:38:23.320 --> 00:38:27.119
I looked him up on q r
Z and I saw its picture and all

485
00:38:27.199 --> 00:38:30.239
that. Oh yeah, okay,
he goes to Okay, I probably would

486
00:38:30.280 --> 00:38:34.880
recognize him. Cool dude, man, cool dude, Okay, cool.

487
00:38:35.239 --> 00:38:38.199
He's on the Expert Team, by
the way, Expert Team. Yeah.

488
00:38:38.639 --> 00:38:42.880
Yeah, I'm gonna get to you, Jason. I you know what,

489
00:38:43.000 --> 00:38:45.280
I'm looking forward to it. Man, I think I got a couple of

490
00:38:45.320 --> 00:38:46.960
trade ends for you. I think
I got a couple of trade ins for

491
00:38:47.000 --> 00:38:51.199
you. Richard used to tell people
that he would trade for anything as long

492
00:38:51.199 --> 00:38:54.679
as it doesn't eat, and I
think I think that's still true. It

493
00:38:54.760 --> 00:38:59.599
is true, It is true,
and I mean we have been in business's

494
00:38:59.679 --> 00:39:05.480
main trading company, MTC Radio dot
com. For what Christy is, she's

495
00:39:05.480 --> 00:39:14.079
still here fifteen years almost almost.
I think June is when we finally open

496
00:39:14.159 --> 00:39:19.320
the store in two thousand and nine, and we started out, you know,

497
00:39:19.440 --> 00:39:24.119
with a twenty five hundred dollars credit
card and you know, just trying

498
00:39:24.159 --> 00:39:30.000
to sell ham radios in between jobs
and all that. Now we sell millions

499
00:39:30.000 --> 00:39:35.320
of dollars of radios all over the
world and we take trade ins every day,

500
00:39:35.480 --> 00:39:38.760
and that's that's what we do.
The ups truck backs up and brings

501
00:39:38.800 --> 00:39:45.840
us everything we have traded for,
hot wheels, collections, pianos, guitars,

502
00:39:46.000 --> 00:39:51.960
amplifiers, trailers, cars, a
Volkswagen rabbit? What else have we

503
00:39:52.039 --> 00:39:57.760
traded for? She's shaking her head
like, but it's true. It's I'm

504
00:39:57.760 --> 00:40:02.440
not exaggerating. We traded for and
we learned our lesson. You know,

505
00:40:02.719 --> 00:40:07.480
we cannot trade for live stock anymore, or things that they eat. We

506
00:40:07.599 --> 00:40:12.440
used to live on a city lot
in the city of Paris. They just

507
00:40:13.079 --> 00:40:19.480
they frown on having live stock in
your backyard. And and plus it's you

508
00:40:19.480 --> 00:40:25.280
can't make money on those. It's
hardship and mule or chickens. Don says,

509
00:40:25.320 --> 00:40:29.519
I have two pianos. He's gonna
be up there tomorrow. Hey,

510
00:40:29.639 --> 00:40:34.599
we'll do it, but pay much
for pianos. I learned that lesson that's

511
00:40:34.639 --> 00:40:39.400
almost in there with things that eat. Do you have any pictures that several

512
00:40:39.440 --> 00:40:45.760
people are asking do we know what
these look like? Or you go don't

513
00:40:45.840 --> 00:40:51.239
so spe has a page on wimo
dot com. This is an overseas thing,

514
00:40:51.800 --> 00:40:53.159
and I don't know. If I'll
pull this up real quick, Richard,

515
00:40:53.199 --> 00:40:57.119
it will take about It's a twenty
thirty second delay on YouTube. But

516
00:40:57.159 --> 00:41:00.760
you can if you look at it, you can tell me this is looks

517
00:41:00.800 --> 00:41:04.440
the same as what you're doing here. But this looks like the uh one

518
00:41:04.440 --> 00:41:07.000
point five on the bottom, the
one point three in the middle, and

519
00:41:08.079 --> 00:41:13.360
I can't tell. I guess there's
two k on top. There's several distributors

520
00:41:13.400 --> 00:41:16.440
out there in the world. Of
course, the factory you can buy direct

521
00:41:16.480 --> 00:41:21.480
from the factory if you want to
in Italy that's and I don't have a

522
00:41:21.519 --> 00:41:23.960
problem with that, but you know, if you need them service or whatever

523
00:41:24.000 --> 00:41:29.719
they're they're going to have to go
back there. And any of you that

524
00:41:29.800 --> 00:41:36.960
have bought radios from overseas knows about
that. Yes, so, but yes,

525
00:41:37.159 --> 00:41:43.320
if I don't remember, I think
it's Linear Amplifier dot com or linear

526
00:41:43.440 --> 00:41:49.320
Amplifier dot I T that looks like
it. Whatever you've got pulled up there,

527
00:41:49.559 --> 00:41:52.360
this is this is the WIMO dot
com, s p E experts,

528
00:41:52.519 --> 00:41:55.719
s p E experts. That's them. That's that's that's them. That's all

529
00:41:55.840 --> 00:42:00.199
three models right there. That's what
they look like. Yeah, thirty want

530
00:42:00.199 --> 00:42:05.480
to fit the euros or whatever that
is model that is, but that's the

531
00:42:05.519 --> 00:42:09.920
amplifiers. Again, my website if
it'll come, if I can get it

532
00:42:10.000 --> 00:42:13.800
done this week, and I will, I will get it done. I'm

533
00:42:14.559 --> 00:42:22.800
not sleeping anymore. What is it. It's expert amps dot com. That

534
00:42:22.880 --> 00:42:24.719
will be up. It's you'll if

535
00:42:24.719 --> 00:42:30.039
gonna go to Q T H and
whatever. But you know, we're all

536

By the way, expert Amps dot com.

537
00:42:37.039 --> 00:42:42.280
It's a new generation of of of
h F power. This is the

538
00:42:42.320 --> 00:42:45.800
real deal. I'm sold man.
Yeah, those that's the amps. I'll

539
00:42:45.800 --> 00:42:50.840
have the side up this week.
Good good, good, excellent. Okay,

540
00:42:51.360 --> 00:42:57.719
okay, what else? Cup?
Yeah, yeah, mine's keep minding

541
00:42:57.760 --> 00:43:00.960
my r V. So what are
you guys doing? So so for the

542
00:43:01.000 --> 00:43:05.400
eclipse next weekend, we were gonna
go down to f and I still might

543
00:43:05.599 --> 00:43:07.880
go. We're gonna go down Fredericksburg. We're going to place down there that

544
00:43:08.559 --> 00:43:12.599
a friend of ours owns a place
and we got invited down there. But

545
00:43:12.760 --> 00:43:15.800
we were looking at the forecast and
it looks like it might either be cloudy

546
00:43:15.880 --> 00:43:21.880
or even possibly storming during on a
week from tomorrow, on April eighth,

547
00:43:21.960 --> 00:43:25.000
Monday. So, but what are
you guys doing in Paris? Is in

548
00:43:25.039 --> 00:43:30.360
totality as well? Correct? Did
you say you're going to Fredericksbar? Yeah,

549
00:43:30.440 --> 00:43:34.280
yeah, that's right outside of its
outside of Frederick. That's weird because

550
00:43:34.320 --> 00:43:37.719
I thought everybody in the whole country
was coming to Paris, Texas well,

551
00:43:37.719 --> 00:43:44.880
Waite, according to emergency management and
all everything, that we're here here like

552
00:43:45.239 --> 00:43:51.280
ten million people in Paris, Texas
this week and most of them are coming

553
00:43:51.320 --> 00:43:55.000
to buy Ham radios and expert amps
too. So we will be open.

554
00:43:55.280 --> 00:44:01.519
We will be open that next Monday. I'm looking at Christie because she Christie

555
00:44:01.599 --> 00:44:08.119
is like the backbone of the company. I'm like, not so, but

556
00:44:08.400 --> 00:44:15.400
anyway, she knows stuff I just
talked. But yes, we will be

557
00:44:15.480 --> 00:44:21.199
open Monday. They're expecting a madhouse
of people. Here. Here's you know,

558
00:44:22.199 --> 00:44:25.079
if you can see her there she
is. Look at my pretty wife

559
00:44:25.880 --> 00:44:31.360
here to keep him in line.
No offense, no offense, Christie,

560
00:44:31.360 --> 00:44:38.360
I don't think you do a for
a good job on that. Yeah,

561
00:44:39.480 --> 00:44:45.840
I don't know. Yes, we'll
be open. Matter of fact, I

562
00:44:45.880 --> 00:44:52.920
think Lawrence Keller and people from South
Texas and Justin Man and famous people Ronnie

563
00:44:52.920 --> 00:44:59.559
Millsap and Joe Walsh. Everybody's supposed
to her starting on Saturdays. So you

564
00:44:59.599 --> 00:45:02.679
know, you'll I'll come up and
everybody will get a deal. How's that?

565
00:45:04.119 --> 00:45:07.440
Hey? If I I got to
decide what I'm gonna do about the

566
00:45:07.440 --> 00:45:09.119
weather, but if I do,
if I do decide to come out there,

567
00:45:09.199 --> 00:45:14.440
would I would I have a place
to park because parking is gonna be

568
00:45:14.480 --> 00:45:17.639
a challenge. Ah, I doubt
it, but we'll figure it out,

569
00:45:17.800 --> 00:45:21.360
all right, All right, you
know, just just come on up.

570
00:45:21.440 --> 00:45:25.239
It'll it'll be fine. And all
right, you know everybody gets a radio

571
00:45:25.320 --> 00:45:30.000
that day. How's that? Yeah, there we go and somebody who's asking

572
00:45:30.039 --> 00:45:36.119
about an expert amplifier giveaway on the
channel, and boy, that'd be nice.

573
00:45:36.159 --> 00:45:37.719
We're gonna have to We're go,
yeah, we'll have to. We'll

574
00:45:37.760 --> 00:45:42.800
have to conspire on that here in
a couple of months, see what's going

575
00:45:42.800 --> 00:45:47.320
on. But all right, so
if you're around or near Paris, Texas,

576
00:45:47.360 --> 00:45:51.519
there's gonna be in a pretty cool
eclipse thing out there. So yes,

577
00:45:51.639 --> 00:45:57.480
and you mentioned like rain and clouds
and all that. The yeah,

578
00:45:57.840 --> 00:46:04.000
the sun always shines and Aris,
I'll just come on up Monday, except

579
00:46:04.000 --> 00:46:14.599
for that one. Except yeah,
I don't even remember that I was there

580
00:46:14.679 --> 00:46:16.119
for that one. You gotta have
to say, hey, man, you

581
00:46:16.159 --> 00:46:19.639
give me back full time at the
story. You need to start doing him

582
00:46:19.719 --> 00:46:22.920
radio days in October. Yea,
I know, I know. Hey,

583
00:46:22.039 --> 00:46:27.039
we're doing and we're moving. I
mean in the middle of all this stuff,

584
00:46:27.480 --> 00:46:31.360
we've we you know, our warehouse. You haven't been there, Vale,

585
00:46:31.360 --> 00:46:36.360
I think's been there, but it's
off the loop in Paris, and

586
00:46:37.599 --> 00:46:39.800
is it a bigger building it's a
it's a whole lot, bigger building,

587
00:46:39.920 --> 00:46:44.360
and that's where we you know,
we buy all these palette deals and all

588
00:46:44.440 --> 00:46:47.079
this stuff and all that. That's
where we've always kept that because our store

589
00:46:47.119 --> 00:46:57.000
is small, so we're putting everything
under one roof. So the actual retail

590
00:46:57.320 --> 00:47:02.440
store is gonna be around this size, maybe a little bit smaller, but

591
00:47:02.639 --> 00:47:07.239
everything will be under one roof.
And like on the big special days or

592
00:47:07.280 --> 00:47:12.039
whatever, if we do a big
event, we'll throw all the doors open

593
00:47:12.079 --> 00:47:15.280
and just sell all that stuff.
So, I mean, we're excited.

594
00:47:15.320 --> 00:47:22.119
We we should be moving. I'm
thinking June or July something like that.

595
00:47:22.559 --> 00:47:25.480
We had some permitting issues with the
city. They didn't know where we were

596
00:47:25.519 --> 00:47:30.039
moving. And I got online and
did a Facebook live, you know,

597
00:47:30.400 --> 00:47:35.199
and and we were good. The
people that were doing the work didn't have

598
00:47:35.280 --> 00:47:39.960
the permits. And and then but
once I walked outside and showed everybody on

599
00:47:40.039 --> 00:47:44.360
Facebook where I was at, you
know, and where we were moving to,

600
00:47:44.599 --> 00:47:51.519
then the city came in and shut
the whole operation down. So fun.

601
00:47:52.519 --> 00:47:57.320
Oh well, okay, okay,
all right, Frank, we have

602
00:47:57.360 --> 00:48:05.679
any more questions Frank, driving,
We're not having any driving. Oh I

603
00:48:05.719 --> 00:48:09.480
was muted on my headset. I'm
sorry. There was a couple of questions

604
00:48:09.480 --> 00:48:14.320
about you moving to the large building, but I think you already covered that.

605
00:48:14.679 --> 00:48:17.239
Yeah, I saw those. I
was asking about that. And the

606
00:48:17.480 --> 00:48:22.320
radios are not going to be available
at the store for pickup tomorrow. When

607
00:48:22.360 --> 00:48:29.199
they'll be released in your store,
we should have a second or third week

608
00:48:29.239 --> 00:48:31.079
of April. I mean, it's
it's a big deal. I mean,

609
00:48:31.119 --> 00:48:36.559
we're trying to do everything right.
We used to order gosh, and y'all

610
00:48:36.599 --> 00:48:38.119
didn't. You didn't ask this,
but we used to order like millions of

611
00:48:38.199 --> 00:48:42.679
radios out of China. The China
brands or whatever. They don't care.

612
00:48:42.760 --> 00:48:45.239
They'll just get them in here.
And Jason, you know how they do

613
00:48:45.440 --> 00:48:51.960
and whatever. But if you're getting
from like a European country, you have

614
00:48:52.079 --> 00:48:55.199
to do things the right way.
And there's we didn't even know you got

615
00:48:55.199 --> 00:49:00.559
to get like a bond and all
this stuff. Wow. Yeah, So

616
00:49:00.920 --> 00:49:04.440
we're doing all that and we're trying
to be you know, legal, and

617
00:49:04.519 --> 00:49:10.719
Christie's doing it. She's like she's
a superstar. She's like customs forms and

618
00:49:10.800 --> 00:49:16.760
all this stuff and you know,
r s and all that. So crazy

619
00:49:17.159 --> 00:49:23.440
like ordering both things off Amazon a
little a little bit more to it than

620
00:49:23.440 --> 00:49:29.239
that, right. Yeah, I
can't wait, Jason, I know,

621
00:49:29.280 --> 00:49:34.599
I know you're excited. Man,
about everybody else? I see Lawrence KB

622
00:49:34.800 --> 00:49:38.360
five z z B Yeah, light
down there, man. I mean he's

623
00:49:38.400 --> 00:49:43.280
been buying radios for me. I
mean since he was a little kid.

624
00:49:43.519 --> 00:49:49.280
I mean he is awesome. That's
awesome. Uh does he do six meters?

625
00:49:50.639 --> 00:49:53.199
No, they do not do six
meters? I think hang on here,

626
00:49:53.679 --> 00:49:57.159
let me look at something. I'm
looking over here, just to make

627
00:49:57.199 --> 00:50:02.920
sure. Because I don't do much. You get hang out, hang on

628
00:50:02.920 --> 00:50:07.760
on my hangdaking news, more breaking
news. Oh, one point five to

629
00:50:07.800 --> 00:50:14.159
fifty megahearts. Yes, that's six
meters. Does do six meters? We

630
00:50:14.320 --> 00:50:19.719
learned something to not there? You
go one point one point three k on

631
00:50:20.039 --> 00:50:22.039
six meters would be quite fun.
I bet I could finally. I bet

632
00:50:22.079 --> 00:50:25.639
I could finally talk to Chuck Frank. He's always telling me that the pipeline

633
00:50:25.679 --> 00:50:29.840
between Texas and California is open if
you get your INTENTNA up high enough.

634
00:50:29.880 --> 00:50:31.679
I've been If I shot thirteen hundred
wats at him, he'd answer me,

635
00:50:31.920 --> 00:50:35.920
Ye, you have to wear a
Weldon who though, I don't know.

636
00:50:37.119 --> 00:50:43.320
Yeah, that's good wear. A
welding hood. All right, man,

637
00:50:43.440 --> 00:50:45.360
Hey, this is uh. I
appreciate you sharing this news with this,

638
00:50:45.519 --> 00:50:51.800
Richard. This is this is fun
and uh and uh it's it's it's definitely

639
00:50:51.840 --> 00:50:55.199
something that people are excited about.
So will you have these at Dayton?

640
00:50:57.199 --> 00:51:00.320
Yes, we will have them at
Dayton. We'll have which will have all

641
00:51:00.400 --> 00:51:09.519
three models plus the brand new Taurus
model. It's dual l DMOS or L

642
00:51:09.639 --> 00:51:19.280
D M O S transistors and it'll
be there. Gill Franco, he's like

643
00:51:19.320 --> 00:51:22.800
the president of the of spe and
Italy. He will be in my booth

644
00:51:24.199 --> 00:51:28.639
and I can't wait to meet him
in person. And he's going to be

645
00:51:28.679 --> 00:51:32.320
there. This is such a big
deal for all the US Hams or North

646
00:51:32.360 --> 00:51:37.480
American Hams out here that are on
HF or even want to get on HF.

647
00:51:37.880 --> 00:51:44.559
I want to put one of these
expert amplifiers in every ham shack in

648
00:51:44.599 --> 00:51:47.480
the United States. That's my goal. That's my goal, and I'm going

649
00:51:47.519 --> 00:51:51.400
to do it. Babe. That's
great, that's great. That's awesome.

650
00:51:52.320 --> 00:51:55.559
Something to shoot for him. Man, you can't along with that. That's

651
00:51:55.599 --> 00:52:04.880
great, all right, Frank,
do we have any more questions? Not

652
00:52:05.079 --> 00:52:10.199
really about the the amplifier. Uh, we got a question about Montes Seno

653
00:52:10.639 --> 00:52:20.559
and Huntsville. Is the More Expo
equivalent to Monta Seno Sinanigan's what we do

654
00:52:20.679 --> 00:52:23.360
up in It's a little bit more. It's a little bit more laid back

655
00:52:23.400 --> 00:52:27.480
than Monta sano Is, I think. Uh, but we are gonna go

656
00:52:27.559 --> 00:52:30.360
We are gonna go up there and
set up a hex beam at the More

657
00:52:30.360 --> 00:52:35.239
Expo so that people will walk by
and ask if we're actually talking to aliens.

658
00:52:35.239 --> 00:52:37.599
This is a non Ham radio crowd. We're gonna set up a hex

659
00:52:37.639 --> 00:52:40.719
beam so that we can tell people
about Ham radio. So we're gonna We're

660
00:52:40.760 --> 00:52:45.039
definitely gonna be doing that. Yeah, it's it's not as it's. It's

661
00:52:45.119 --> 00:52:49.400
a little bit more laid back and
calm and relaxed than Monta sano Is.

662
00:52:49.440 --> 00:52:52.280
But you know, it's still a
fun show. I've enjoyed it the last

663
00:52:52.280 --> 00:52:57.079
two years, so I'm looking forward
to this year as well. I did

664
00:52:57.119 --> 00:53:04.679
cover Dayton h H. Nancy said, look out, Richard's looking like he

665
00:53:04.800 --> 00:53:09.159
used car salesman with that hat on. Oh man, I'm not gonna tell

666
00:53:09.199 --> 00:53:16.119
you what I used today. Yeah, yeah, okay, and uh,

667
00:53:16.519 --> 00:53:21.480
Donn and a couple other people are
making fun of Sapphire. Will Sapphire be

668
00:53:21.559 --> 00:53:25.760
at the more Expo? Nope,
And Sapphire is a suburban overlanding vehicle.

669
00:53:28.239 --> 00:53:30.920
Somebody said you should trade Sapphire in
for a new expert amplifier, and I

670
00:53:30.920 --> 00:53:36.559
think that was a great idea.
I said, will bake reptail because she's

671
00:53:36.760 --> 00:53:42.280
priceless. Priceless. Sapphire is Frank's
little Barbie doll car that he drives around.

672
00:53:42.280 --> 00:53:45.920
We call it Sapphire Frank. Frank
likes to make fun of people with

673
00:53:45.960 --> 00:53:49.480
big trucks, Richard, so we
we make fun of his car. So

674
00:53:49.519 --> 00:53:54.400
it's turned about turn about his fair
play with that ranger by the way,

675
00:53:55.239 --> 00:54:05.519
mm hmm, get rid of that
big dog. Saphire is a Honda Civic

676
00:54:06.000 --> 00:54:09.039
twenty nineteen in the beautifullest blue.
And that's how she got her name.

677
00:54:09.599 --> 00:54:17.880
And I love her. That's pretty
much all I got right now. Man,

678
00:54:19.800 --> 00:54:22.440
Hey, can I say one more
thing? Yep, yep, go

679
00:54:22.440 --> 00:54:27.239
ahead. A couple of couple of
quick things. One, thank you Jason

680
00:54:27.280 --> 00:54:30.280
for doing this and bringing me on. This is a big deal. And

681
00:54:30.920 --> 00:54:35.599
I know for a lot of Hams
that are not in the HF this is

682
00:54:35.719 --> 00:54:39.360
not a big deal for them,
but this is a huge deal for me

683
00:54:39.639 --> 00:54:45.519
and my family and my company.
And it's just a big opportunity. I'm

684
00:54:45.519 --> 00:54:50.239
a believer in it. And if
I can help you get one, or

685
00:54:50.760 --> 00:54:54.000
the viewers out here get one,
that's great. I want everybody to have

686
00:54:54.039 --> 00:54:59.880
one that wants one. And you
know it's Easter. We had a big

687
00:55:00.039 --> 00:55:05.199
time today with family and church and
all that, and hope everybody did too.

688
00:55:05.559 --> 00:55:08.440
And I just want to thank you, man, thanks for making this

689
00:55:08.519 --> 00:55:14.880

I can't wait to see it.
Belting and dating and more Handfest dates will

692
00:55:23.559 --> 00:55:28.199
be announced. This is gonna be
like the old days, baby back.

693
00:55:28.400 --> 00:55:30.360
You know Jason, how we used
to row. It was the first thing

694
00:55:30.400 --> 00:55:32.199
I asked you when you called me
yesterday. I was like, that,

695
00:55:32.400 --> 00:55:37.320

the hem Fest circuit. Yeah, it's

696

a hamfast is such a killer man. Yeah, and especially bringing like we

699
00:55:52.960 --> 00:55:55.880
used to do ten tables and ten
booths and all that. We're gonna make

700
00:55:55.920 --> 00:56:01.239
this portable and easy to get in
and out, take orders at the show,

701
00:56:01.519 --> 00:56:06.559

00:56:06.599 --> 00:56:10.960
I'm really excited. I'm really excited. I haven't been bit excited. He

705
00:56:24.039 --> 00:56:29.599
taking the time out tonight. I
know it was Easter Sunday and we set

706
00:56:29.679 --> 00:56:30.639
it Richard, and I said,
I mean, we've been talking about doing

707
00:56:30.639 --> 00:56:34.840
this for like a month, but
we put the nail on the coffin yesterday

708
00:56:34.880 --> 00:56:36.639
because he called me. He is
like, hey, man, it's happening

709
00:56:36.639 --> 00:56:37.840
now. I'm like, all right, let's just do it. So I

710
00:56:37.880 --> 00:56:40.760
appreciate you taking the time out today, man, and I look forward to

711
00:56:40.760 --> 00:56:44.559
seeing you. I will. Somebody
asked me just in the chat just a

712
00:56:44.559 --> 00:56:47.880
minute ago, if if I'll be
at Belton. I don't know yet if

713
00:56:47.880 --> 00:56:51.360
I'll be at Belton. If I
do go to Belton, I will get

714
00:56:51.440 --> 00:56:53.719
up early Saturday morning and just drive
out for the day. I've got something

715
00:56:53.719 --> 00:56:57.320
to do that Friday, so I'm
not going to go down there with a

716
00:56:57.360 --> 00:57:02.360
camper like I normally do. But
as as every every time Belton rolls around.

717
00:57:02.440 --> 00:57:07.119
It will depend on the weather because
if it's gonna be thunderstorm and then

718
00:57:07.159 --> 00:57:09.480
I'm not gonna go. But but
if it's nice weather out there, that's

719
00:57:09.519 --> 00:57:13.840
a really fun show, especially outside. So I'm gonna I'm gonna wait and

720
00:57:13.840 --> 00:57:15.880
see. That's for me. It's
gonna be a wait and see game.

721
00:57:15.920 --> 00:57:19.639
But hopefully I'll get to go on
Saturday, but we'll see. So yeah,

722
00:57:19.679 --> 00:57:22.039
man, I'll be looking forward to
seeing you there Richard, and seeing

723
00:57:22.119 --> 00:57:24.639
you and maybe maybe seeing you for
the eclipse. I'll let you know what

724
00:57:24.639 --> 00:57:30.320
we do for that. Man.
Love you, guys, Love you everybody

725
00:57:30.360 --> 00:57:36.199
out there and cyber Land and Land. That's right, Love you, baby.

726
00:57:36.400 --> 00:57:38.679
This is gonna be big, and
I'm excited. I can tell you're

727
00:57:38.679 --> 00:57:42.760
excited. Good. It's good,
man, It's good. It's it'll be

728
00:57:42.760 --> 00:57:46.000
a good h'd be good? Uh
good to see how well you do with

729
00:57:46.039 --> 00:57:47.719
it. I think you'll do well
with it. I think I think you

730
00:57:47.760 --> 00:57:52.440
will. If not, the worst
thing that can happen will go broke.

731
00:57:52.599 --> 00:57:59.119
I've been broke before. It's not
that. Yeah. Josh is saying he

732
00:57:59.159 --> 00:58:01.880
has an expert running out of the
back of his truck. Easy. Yeah,

733
00:58:01.920 --> 00:58:05.320
that's the one he blessed. What
Don was asking earlier, that's the

734
00:58:05.360 --> 00:58:08.639
one he played. He's got a
a new Ford Lightning, the evy Ford

735
00:58:08.679 --> 00:58:12.800
Lightning, and it's got an inverter
in the bed and he plugged it into

736
00:58:12.840 --> 00:58:15.480
his inverter in the bed and ran
it I think into like a stainless steel

737
