At the time, fifteen meters was pretty 75 00:05:15.160 --> 00:05:18.920 hot until Tannerton thirty kind of started to dwindle down then. But I worked 76 00:05:18.920 --> 00:05:21.079 a lot of fifteen meter f to eight this weekend. But I didn't see 77 00:05:21.079 --> 00:05:25.879 you guys, but fifteen most of the time on the buddy hecks and we 78 00:05:25.879 --> 00:05:29.800 were having a fantastic time on the buddy heck. But side now because it's 79 00:05:29.800 --> 00:05:30.680 it's getting windy, and the rest of the cruise in there too, so 80 00:05:30.720 --> 00:05:41.079 we'll cool.

But let's hear 102 00:07:13.439 --> 00:07:17.160 about Moulson. How did it tell us what you said? Um? Well, 103 00:07:17.240 --> 00:07:19.360 did you say that after? I don't remember now did you say that 104 00:07:19.360 --> 00:07:23.800 before after livestream about new people joining your field day? Well, oh, 105 00:07:23.839 --> 00:07:27.480 it was just fantastic. We had some some hands that were more kind of 106 00:07:27.519 --> 00:07:30.600 the technician class. So here in canada's basic so they get the same frequency 107 00:07:30.639 --> 00:07:35.120 privileges as technician and then we're really on the fire. They Actually I would 108 00:07:35.120 --> 00:07:40.560 have to say, it's been two years since I've been reregistered. I just 109 00:07:40.759 --> 00:07:44.720 reregistered with the club locally, and they really lit the fire underneath the club. 110 00:07:44.839 --> 00:07:47.240 They're passionate to get out there and so it was awesome. We had 111 00:07:47.279 --> 00:07:53.720 a lot of Almer's older gentleman who just just felt like they needed to take 112 00:07:53.759 --> 00:07:56.560 them under their wing, and so it really just kind of put life into 113 00:07:56.560 --> 00:08:00.439 the club and it was fantastic and it was really cool. Listen, they 114 00:08:00.800 --> 00:08:03.800 drove all the rest of us to to go, you know, you know 115 00:08:03.839 --> 00:08:07.199 when they're up till three o'clock in the morning, just because they're they're excited, 116 00:08:07.319 --> 00:08:09.160 you know. Like, so it was a great experience. There's there's 117 00:08:09.160 --> 00:08:13.839 so much that happened, but uh, the new people can really bring fire 118 00:08:13.959 --> 00:08:20.759 to to you know, the multi generations in the hobby. So agreed. 119 00:08:20.839 --> 00:08:24.720 Yeah, Now, what what was your section? Molson? We were Oscar 120 00:08:24.800 --> 00:08:28.920 November Echo, Ontario East, and we were we were two Alpha with a 121 00:08:30.000 --> 00:08:33.279 go to station. So nice, okay, all right, right, all 122 00:08:33.320 --> 00:08:35.759 right, yeah, I joined a TiO stream on I guess it was last 123 00:08:35.840 --> 00:08:41.039 night. Was that last night Friday? N Friday night? Okay, Yeah, 124 00:08:41.039 --> 00:08:43.240 And I was like, hey, if you have a go to stap 125 00:08:43.279 --> 00:08:46.600 ape Ape should go fund to go to station. He can actually get on 126 00:08:45.759 --> 00:08:50.240 Nay, yeah, um rs on the air. That's what go to means. 127 00:08:50.279 --> 00:08:54.480 What does go to means for everyone else the air? Get on the 128 00:08:54.480 --> 00:08:58.480 air, get on the air, and then what what is that supposed to 129 00:08:58.519 --> 00:09:01.480 be? What? How are you supposed to use that station? It is? 130 00:09:01.759 --> 00:09:05.519 I mean somebody else can answer if they want. It is a station 131 00:09:05.879 --> 00:09:11.360 run by a licensed HAM, usually not with the club call sign that anyone 132 00:09:11.639 --> 00:09:13.600 can walk up to, sit down and make an HF contact if they're if 133 00:09:13.600 --> 00:09:16.840 they're a technician, if they have no license at all, they can sit 134 00:09:16.879 --> 00:09:18.600 down at the radio and make a contact just to get on the air with 135 00:09:18.639 --> 00:09:22.159 third party traffic, to get their feet wack and get them interested in HAM 136 00:09:22.279 --> 00:09:26.080 radio. Basically, that's a cool concept. Yeah, yeah, it's it's 137 00:09:26.120 --> 00:09:31.240 fun. But the way it's described in the rules is that it can be 138 00:09:31.440 --> 00:09:35.759 the operator has to be either an inactive HAM so someone that may be licensed 139 00:09:35.919 --> 00:09:41.159 but it doesn't normally operate on the radio, or someone who's unlicensed. So 140 00:09:41.279 --> 00:09:45.440 the intent is to get people on the air that wouldn't otherwise be on the 141 00:09:45.440 --> 00:09:48.600 air. I thought it was for technicians also, who do not do not 142 00:09:48.720 --> 00:09:52.240 have HF privileges, at least in the USA. Sure, yeah, they 143 00:09:52.279 --> 00:09:54.559 could just be an operator then yeah, I think that fits the spirit of 144 00:09:54.600 --> 00:09:58.759 the station there. So yeah, but you get bonus points, you get 145 00:09:58.840 --> 00:10:03.639 extra point people doing get on the air. We got we had two folks 146 00:10:03.720 --> 00:10:07.159 that got us ten contacts, which we got one hundred points for that. 147 00:10:07.440 --> 00:10:13.799 So it's a gateway station exactly, a gateway Yeah. Yeah, it's a 148 00:10:13.840 --> 00:10:18.919 gateway station. That's right. I have to be honest. So so, 149 00:10:18.200 --> 00:10:22.919 um, there's three new Hams that that don't have HF privileges. They were 150 00:10:22.960 --> 00:10:26.919 on the Gota station and I, you know, I'm addicted to running pile 151 00:10:26.000 --> 00:10:30.440 ups. I so I was on a frequency and I got a piloup going 152 00:10:30.480 --> 00:10:33.840 and these guys minds were blown, right, So I started, I started, 153 00:10:33.000 --> 00:10:37.799 I started. I started to coach them. So they started running pile 154 00:10:37.840 --> 00:10:41.639 ups on the Gota station. No, Lie, So the Gota station did 155 00:10:41.639 --> 00:10:48.240 over three hundred contacts. That is awesome. That is freaking cool. Yeah, 156 00:10:48.240 --> 00:10:52.799 that is really frequently. It was a lot of fun, all right. 157 00:10:52.440 --> 00:10:56.279 So Charlie, what, Charlie, what did you do for for field 158 00:10:56.320 --> 00:10:58.720 day? I went with my club that I am a part of. We 159 00:10:58.799 --> 00:11:01.559 have our clubs about two hundred and twenty five members, so we had about 160 00:11:01.600 --> 00:11:07.000 forty people at our field day. Nice. That's a that's a good group. 161 00:11:07.159 --> 00:11:11.320 Yeah. We operated for Alpha Alpha Zulu and our call center was kilo 162 00:11:11.480 --> 00:11:16.799 seven kilo and we were on sixty acres of private land that was completely surrounded 163 00:11:16.200 --> 00:11:22.440 by Coconino National Forest and so great private and it was just us and had 164 00:11:22.480 --> 00:11:26.159 a great time. Got down to twenty eight degrees one night. So jealous, 165 00:11:26.639 --> 00:11:31.240 Oh my gosh that I'm coming to Arizona next year. I know. 166 00:11:31.320 --> 00:11:35.559 Really, Jason, we need to go do field day with moles in Canada. 167 00:11:35.799 --> 00:11:37.120 Yeah, yeah, we need to go. Yeah, no doubt I 168 00:11:37.240 --> 00:11:41.879 was getting I was. I'm dead serious. Listen, I did not sweat 169 00:11:41.919 --> 00:11:46.960 at Daytim, I did not. I was dripping wet yesterday. So it 170 00:11:46.039 --> 00:11:48.879 was not a like, oh it's Canada's cold. It was, but it 171 00:11:48.879 --> 00:11:52.480 wasn't one hundred and twenty degrees. No, it wasn't. But it fell 172 00:11:52.559 --> 00:11:56.519 like, well it might be Shane might be exaggerating a little bit. Where 173 00:11:56.519 --> 00:12:00.679 we well to eat index. Yes, the heat, it's very true. 174 00:12:00.679 --> 00:12:03.440 The heat in decks. Yeah, there was a there was a pre field 175 00:12:03.480 --> 00:12:05.279 day highlight or I don't know what you want to call it, but I 176 00:12:05.360 --> 00:12:07.759 was. I was. We were setting up the radios and I thought, 177 00:12:07.879 --> 00:12:11.600 you know, let me just check the bands and see if there's somebody doing 178 00:12:11.600 --> 00:12:15.480 soda right now. And so I was spending the dial and I all of 179 00:12:15.559 --> 00:12:18.000 a sudden I heard K six a r k Oh my gosh, and I 180 00:12:18.080 --> 00:12:24.320 didn't have a paddle, so I hurried and ran and grabbed a somebody borrowed 181 00:12:24.360 --> 00:12:28.360 somebody's and plugged it in and I didn't have the right adapter, so I 182 00:12:28.399 --> 00:12:33.279 had to plug it into I had to plug it into the straight key jack 183 00:12:33.320 --> 00:12:35.960 and use the left paddle, and uh, and I work, Adam. 184 00:12:37.039 --> 00:12:41.080 I wanted to get that content. That was pretty cool. Love it. 185 00:12:41.360 --> 00:12:48.759 I was like, oh, Charlie's using a straight key. Yeah. Question 186 00:12:48.759 --> 00:12:52.480 is really slow today. How can you tell if it was a straight versus 187 00:12:52.679 --> 00:12:56.919 A and that's a that's a that's a long question. It's just just got 188 00:12:58.159 --> 00:13:00.879 you just gotta do. You just know, all right, You got to 189 00:13:00.879 --> 00:13:03.799 get used to listening to it. It's like when people and I don't understand 190 00:13:03.840 --> 00:13:09.279 this myself, like people can identify there's almost signatures you can fill. Yeah, 191 00:13:09.279 --> 00:13:11.360 they fist like you can recognize someone's fist once you've heard it enough. 192 00:13:11.399 --> 00:13:15.120 And I'm like, I don't get I haven't. I'm not that advanced yet. 193 00:13:15.200 --> 00:13:18.279 I can't do that. But yeah, there's a way I can recognize 194 00:13:18.279 --> 00:13:22.799 bugs that I hate hearing them. I love the mechanical sexiness of a bug 195 00:13:22.919 --> 00:13:26.679 key. Yeah, but they send their their DAWs at like ten words a 196 00:13:26.679 --> 00:13:35.080 minute and their dits at fifty. I saw you, I saw you showing 197 00:13:35.120 --> 00:13:39.279 off that it was sixty six degrees there. Um, well you can't see 198 00:13:39.320 --> 00:13:50.600 that it's still ninety eight. That's that's just parent's wrong. Well, let's 199 00:13:50.639 --> 00:13:54.120 go. Carlos joined after Steve, but Steve turned his camera off. That's 200 00:13:54.120 --> 00:13:56.320 why he's on the bottom. So I'm gonna let Steve go next. What'd 201 00:13:56.320 --> 00:13:58.960 you do for field day? Man? So my club gets together every year 202 00:14:00.159 --> 00:14:01.159 and we put up a lot of antennas, we set up a lot of 203 00:14:01.200 --> 00:14:07.440 stations, and we make no contacts. It's so what we did was we 204 00:14:07.519 --> 00:14:11.639 got a we got a fan dipole for twenty and forty up in the air. 205 00:14:11.720 --> 00:14:16.639 We got a JPC seven, which is the Buddy Pole, the Chellicons 206 00:14:16.679 --> 00:14:22.440 Buddy Pole. Oh yeah, set up and then we got we took the 207 00:14:22.519 --> 00:14:26.720 repeater off the air and we used that for APRS, and but we didn't 208 00:14:26.759 --> 00:14:28.600 we didn't make a single contact. We had one, two, three, 209 00:14:30.039 --> 00:14:33.279 four, We had four stations at least, and we had a couple more 210 00:14:33.279 --> 00:14:35.799 stations we could have set up, but we didn't. And then Scout seventy 211 00:14:35.799 --> 00:14:39.519 five and I we played all day long getting his Raspberry pie set up and 212 00:14:39.559 --> 00:14:43.039 getting it on APRS. We set up an eyegate and a Digi Peter and 213 00:14:43.840 --> 00:14:46.559 I didn't know what we were doing, but that's that's the funny field day. 214 00:14:46.240 --> 00:14:48.840 Yeah, Hey, that's a fun of Ham Radio for a good deal. 215 00:14:50.200 --> 00:14:52.000 Okay, cool man, that sounds like what call sign? Did you 216 00:14:52.000 --> 00:14:58.000 guys operate as W nine W A R Whiskey nine whiskey Alpha Romeo whiskey nine 217 00:14:58.039 --> 00:15:01.360 war. I think I would have remembered that if I would have worked at 218 00:15:01.360 --> 00:15:03.399 war stations, if you would have been on the air. I think I 219 00:15:05.120 --> 00:15:07.399 don't think I've worked the worst, although I worked a lot of worked a 220 00:15:07.399 --> 00:15:11.519 lot of FT eight where I was just kind of clicking yes, clicking yes, 221 00:15:11.559 --> 00:15:16.200 clicking yes. And Shane Shane showed the riveting excitement about three stations all 222 00:15:16.240 --> 00:15:20.360 working ft eight at the same time. Whatever was that a shorter Instagram? 223 00:15:20.639 --> 00:15:22.240 Yeah, I put it on TikTok and I put it on as YouTube short. 224 00:15:22.759 --> 00:15:26.879 Okay, all right, Jason, I got a really cool thing that 225 00:15:26.960 --> 00:15:28.080 I want to share. Cool. Yeah, yeah, yeah, go ahead. 226 00:15:28.120 --> 00:15:31.399 Man. My thirteen year old son, Nathan has been in the Shock 227 00:15:31.519 --> 00:15:37.559 with me, and you know obviously watched and I brought him yesterday. The 228 00:15:37.600 --> 00:15:39.000 reason why I brought him, don't tell him, is because my wife was 229 00:15:39.039 --> 00:15:43.600 like concerned that him and his sisters would fight while she wasn't home. Yeah, 230 00:15:43.639 --> 00:15:48.039 and eight o'clock at night, I was like, you know, but 231 00:15:48.159 --> 00:15:50.159 I'm gonna drive you home, and he's like, no, Dad, I 232 00:15:50.200 --> 00:15:52.080 don't want to leave. Like he got on the air, he made contracts 233 00:15:52.159 --> 00:15:56.159 and he was talking. He was talking with the older gentleman too. So 234 00:15:56.159 --> 00:15:58.200 he stayed till one o'clock in the morning with me this morning. Wow, 235 00:15:58.320 --> 00:16:03.639 and he wants to get his license now. And so it's just crazy, 236 00:16:03.720 --> 00:16:07.639 how like here on my shock, I got all this nonsense, all this 237 00:16:07.279 --> 00:16:11.600 and it was field day that that kind of put a fire under his butt. 238 00:16:11.639 --> 00:16:14.679 So you know, to me, it's kind of exciting. It's also 239 00:16:14.720 --> 00:16:18.039 really cool that the older gentleman in the club took the time to hang out 240 00:16:18.080 --> 00:16:21.519 and talk and converse and on a lot of different topics with a thirteen year 241 00:16:21.559 --> 00:16:22.960 old kid. So, you know, I know a lot of I know 242 00:16:23.080 --> 00:16:26.919 sometimes I'm gonna be saying a lot of crap has said about clubs and people 243 00:16:26.960 --> 00:16:30.120 and old people. But let me tell you something. They made it. 244 00:16:30.320 --> 00:16:33.000 They made a difference not only in my son's life, but other people's License 245 00:16:33.039 --> 00:16:36.679 weekend, So it was really cool. It was cool. Good. Hey, 246 00:16:36.720 --> 00:16:38.320 that's a great story, man, Thanks for sharing that that. I've 247 00:16:38.360 --> 00:16:41.200 told the story before how I got licensed in ninety four and I was heavy 248 00:16:41.200 --> 00:16:45.240 into it for two or three years, and then I dropped it for one 249 00:16:45.279 --> 00:16:47.080 to three years, and then I picked it back up. At the end 250 00:16:47.200 --> 00:16:49.000 I dropped again. I picked up. It was when I got my general 251 00:16:49.039 --> 00:16:55.759 ticket, like freaking eighteen years later, like two thousand. I don't know 252 00:16:55.759 --> 00:16:59.279 what would that be to twenty twenty twelve or something, twenty thirteen summer, 253 00:16:59.320 --> 00:17:02.879 and I don't remember when it was that when I got HF and went to 254 00:17:02.879 --> 00:17:07.240 field day for the first time, it wasn't really necessarily because of field day, 255 00:17:07.400 --> 00:17:10.599 was because of HF. Overall, I haven't put him radio down since 256 00:17:10.640 --> 00:17:14.480 then, so it's it's much more for me. For me, it's much 257 00:17:14.519 --> 00:17:17.240 more enjoyable to be on HF than it is doing the other stuff. I 258 00:17:17.240 --> 00:17:21.079 still like repeaters, but I really I really enjoyed HF and that's that's kind 259 00:17:21.079 --> 00:17:22.920 of what's kept me hooked for the last ten years. Don't tell my wife, 260 00:17:23.240 --> 00:17:26.039 but that's what it is. She might take away all my HF radios. 261 00:17:26.119 --> 00:17:30.480 It only took me thirteen years to upgrade from technician to in general, 262 00:17:30.720 --> 00:17:33.240 so I'm pretty sure that. I'm pretty sure I have you beat on that. 263 00:17:33.279 --> 00:17:37.000 I think it was eighteen years for me. So I'm a slow learner 264 00:17:37.440 --> 00:17:40.880 and uh and lazy. I'm very lazy. I just got bored during COVID 265 00:17:40.920 --> 00:17:42.599 and was looking for something to do. So well, there you go. 266 00:17:44.160 --> 00:17:48.480 Speaking of wives, here's here's a good one from Field Day Fall. Okay, 267 00:17:48.960 --> 00:17:52.680 so you know, for my live stream, we have myself and uh 268 00:17:52.680 --> 00:17:59.640 Brian W seven jet and Dan Casey seven MSU, all of the uh somebody 269 00:18:00.119 --> 00:18:06.079 whoever he's got that plane in the background. Mute please yeah, Jason, 270 00:18:07.880 --> 00:18:11.559 whatever, go ahead, go ahead, Charlie. Sorry, Yeah, all 271 00:18:11.599 --> 00:18:15.640 of our wives were there. Dan's wife is not licensed mine as a general 272 00:18:15.640 --> 00:18:18.960 and uh so's and I think Brian's is at least a general. But none 273 00:18:18.960 --> 00:18:22.559 of them really had done a contest. My wife does soda, and I 274 00:18:22.599 --> 00:18:26.640 think Brian's wife doesn't really like she just does FTA and doesn't like to get 275 00:18:26.640 --> 00:18:30.000 on the mic. But the three of them, we're helping each other out 276 00:18:30.039 --> 00:18:34.599 and we're running for quite a while on field day. Uh and and we're 277 00:18:34.640 --> 00:18:37.359 I mean, of course they had a pilot because it was three women running, 278 00:18:37.599 --> 00:18:41.519 you know and calling c Yeah, so one of them was logging, 279 00:18:41.519 --> 00:18:42.559 one of them was calling, and then the other one was standing and kind 280 00:18:42.559 --> 00:18:45.400 of helping and turn you know, I call out the call signs as they 281 00:18:45.440 --> 00:18:48.480 were coming in. It was amazing, it was great. None of them 282 00:18:48.519 --> 00:18:52.079 really had done this before, so they were excited. Yeah that's great. 283 00:18:52.279 --> 00:18:55.240 We Uh my wife stopped by for like, I don't know, ten minutes, 284 00:18:55.640 --> 00:18:57.720 well, probably longer than ten minutes. Um, yeah, she had 285 00:18:57.759 --> 00:19:02.480 dinner, probably an hour. She's probably there an hour yesterday. And Shane, 286 00:19:02.480 --> 00:19:03.839 I think it was a Noah's Noel. It was Noel who said, 287 00:19:03.880 --> 00:19:07.839 hey, get the record button out on the on the FTDX ten and have 288 00:19:07.880 --> 00:19:11.359 her call CQ and her voice, and I'm like, that's actually a very 289 00:19:11.359 --> 00:19:14.160 good idea, idea. We didn't ask her to do that. She kind 290 00:19:14.160 --> 00:19:15.400 of looked at the sideways. I'm like, all right, it's it's fine, 291 00:19:15.440 --> 00:19:21.960 hey, because she got her general like a year and a half, 292 00:19:21.960 --> 00:19:26.160 a couple of years ago, and uh, she's never used it. She's 293 00:19:26.160 --> 00:19:27.279 like, I might want to do parks on the I was explaining to her 294 00:19:27.279 --> 00:19:30.720 parks in the air. She went and joined the Facebook group and she she 295 00:19:30.759 --> 00:19:33.240 created herself a photo account. I didn't do that for her. She did 296 00:19:33.319 --> 00:19:37.480 herself. She's very she's very Internet savvy. She's not she works in she's 297 00:19:37.519 --> 00:19:41.039 a CPA, but she does a lot of tech and it stuff inside the 298 00:19:41.039 --> 00:19:44.839 CPA thing. So um so she's she doesn't have any problems with any of 299 00:19:44.880 --> 00:19:47.240 that. But yeah, so she'll come to me and she'll ask me question. 300 00:19:47.319 --> 00:19:48.400 She goes, I'll read this on the Poto Facebook group today, and 301 00:19:48.440 --> 00:19:52.400 I'm like, really, if you know about that, it's kind of fun. 302 00:19:52.480 --> 00:19:56.920 It's kind of fun.

I'm like making contacts this field day. 333 00:22:11.640 --> 00:22:14.440 He goes, this is the go to station. None of your count none 334 00:22:14.440 --> 00:22:21.400 of your long contact account. Maybe put a sign on it next time, 335 00:22:21.519 --> 00:22:26.599 you know. It turns out they did have a sign on it. It's 336 00:22:26.640 --> 00:22:30.160 just that we had storms coming through last night and the storm blew the sign 337 00:22:30.240 --> 00:22:34.279 off and nobody put it back on your luck. Yeah, so no big 338 00:22:34.319 --> 00:22:37.920 deal, you know, no big deal, Like I still got thirty so 339 00:22:37.039 --> 00:22:41.680 much contacts at home. Uh, Jim called me an idiot. Yeah, 340 00:22:41.720 --> 00:22:44.839 he saw the video that I plusted early at two o'clock. I thought Field 341 00:22:44.920 --> 00:22:48.200 Day was over at two o'clock in the afternoon Easter my time, right, 342 00:22:48.039 --> 00:22:52.680 and I put up a video showing the showing the bands are clear, because 343 00:22:52.680 --> 00:22:56.559 they really were, like like at two o'clock the bands just yeah, yeah, 344 00:22:56.599 --> 00:23:00.279 they died at one fifty nine. I couldn't find three k of open 345 00:23:00.319 --> 00:23:04.279 space to save my life wide open. Yeah. Yeah, the the eight 346 00:23:04.599 --> 00:23:07.240 r L does that. They turned the bands off and on every for twenty 347 00:23:07.240 --> 00:23:11.359 four hours every year Field Yeah, yeah, that's their fault. Yeah. 348 00:23:11.440 --> 00:23:15.519 I asked K five Ata that question directly and he's just like, um, 349 00:23:15.720 --> 00:23:19.079 um, you got any coffee? He just really sidestepped question, you know. 350 00:23:19.200 --> 00:23:25.279 So I kept making context after after two o'clock until a storm rolled through 351 00:23:25.359 --> 00:23:27.000 here and I was like, you know what, I'm not risking this, 352 00:23:27.680 --> 00:23:32.559 and I'm glad I didn't because I put my antenna down just in time to 353 00:23:32.599 --> 00:23:36.880 see trees come down, and I'm like, I made the right call here, 354 00:23:37.319 --> 00:23:42.960 Otherwise then it might be snatched totally again, totally yeah again again again 355 00:23:44.039 --> 00:23:47.799 all right, Shane, I want you to tell everybody which you had idea 356 00:23:47.880 --> 00:23:49.759 you had for next year. So Shane is a Shane is a pilot and 357 00:23:49.799 --> 00:23:53.079 he's working on getting his blood. Have you finished that yet? I don't 358 00:23:53.119 --> 00:23:56.319 know, but he still work down. Yes, Okay. I've been a 359 00:23:56.319 --> 00:24:02.279 pilot for twenty good lord, twenty three years. Damn year old, I 360 00:24:02.359 --> 00:24:06.519 know, right, And so I got this wild hair last year to get 361 00:24:06.680 --> 00:24:10.640 to get my right. My lighter than air Commercial LTA, so I can 362 00:24:10.640 --> 00:24:15.599 fly hid balloons. So my idea for next year was to take one of 363 00:24:15.640 --> 00:24:18.880 the balloons out, tether it and I have these I have three three hundred 364 00:24:18.920 --> 00:24:22.799 foot ropes, so we could take the balloon up to two hundred feet, 365 00:24:22.160 --> 00:24:26.599 so we would have a basically a floating tower and we could do aeronautical mobile 366 00:24:27.240 --> 00:24:33.599 mm and we've got we got one hundred and seventy five acres. Yeah, 367 00:24:33.640 --> 00:24:36.319 you can do that, so yeah, wide open. Yeah, yeah, 368 00:24:36.359 --> 00:24:38.000 that's gonna be a thing. I think it would have to be on the 369 00:24:38.319 --> 00:24:42.440 unlike um, Sunday morning, because I wouldn't want to do it in the 370 00:24:42.440 --> 00:24:51.720 afternoon with one of the ropes. Exactly, you could you can have power 371 00:24:51.799 --> 00:24:55.519 from shore exactly. Well yeah, well then you would, I guess you'd 372 00:24:55.559 --> 00:24:57.839 still be aeronautical mobile because you're still floating in the air. Biowindo, man, 373 00:24:59.079 --> 00:25:03.039 biowinno. That's tough. But you need like one hundred amp power battery 374 00:25:03.079 --> 00:25:07.319 and that would put a lot basket. I mean yeah, I mean the 375 00:25:07.359 --> 00:25:11.559 baskets. There are the balloons rated to lift twenty seven hundred pounds, So 376 00:25:11.960 --> 00:25:15.440 I think we could put a couple of bio when I was in there. 377 00:25:15.440 --> 00:25:18.279 If it's just you could do that. Take a tech prepper man pack up 378 00:25:18.279 --> 00:25:22.759 there with you. Now there you go, yeah, yeah, that'd do 379 00:25:22.839 --> 00:25:30.960 it. Or take the MIC's three yeah, Mike, yeah, yeah, 380 00:25:30.039 --> 00:25:34.440 yeah yeah. So Jody's saying, mounted buddy Hecks is a top hat. 381 00:25:34.519 --> 00:25:37.319 No, no, no, you put it on the bottom of the basket. 382 00:25:37.359 --> 00:25:40.119 You put it as like an upside down umbrella. That would be a 383 00:25:40.160 --> 00:25:44.599 Buddy hecksppointed the wrong direction, that'd be that'd be cool. I bet we 384 00:25:44.640 --> 00:25:45.799 could get Chris to sponsor that. I was like, hey, dude, 385 00:25:45.799 --> 00:25:48.160 we're gonna put your buddy Hecks on a balloon you want to sponsor, I'm 386 00:25:48.160 --> 00:25:55.720 gonna lift hang hang it down below us right right totally. How are the 387 00:25:55.720 --> 00:26:00.200 batons for you? Guys. So that was another question I was going ask 388 00:26:00.200 --> 00:26:03.279 you everyone, So I'm gonna I'm gonna say something, and I want to 389 00:26:03.279 --> 00:26:07.079 know what everyone's opinion on this is. The bands were actually quite quite good, 390 00:26:07.480 --> 00:26:10.000 and I saw Adam say something in the chat earlier. Six meters. 391 00:26:10.000 --> 00:26:17.640 Sadly six meters was on fire on Thursday and maybe Friday, maybe Friday morning 392 00:26:17.640 --> 00:26:21.240 as well, and then like when the weekend rolled around, it was pretty 393 00:26:21.319 --> 00:26:23.079 much dead. I listened to six meters for about it. I turned on 394 00:26:23.119 --> 00:26:26.319 six meters for about twenty minutes about three different times throughout the weekend, and 395 00:26:26.359 --> 00:26:30.960 I think I saw like one or two stations. It was just nothing on 396 00:26:30.000 --> 00:26:34.039 six meters because six meters ft eight has been has been really solid, the 397 00:26:34.079 --> 00:26:37.000 lasting up and down, but really solid. The last month or so here 398 00:26:38.359 --> 00:26:42.519 um ten meters. I didn't see much on ten meters at all. Uh 399 00:26:42.680 --> 00:26:48.640 fifteen was on fire or the whole weekend twenty you couldn't find a place in 400 00:26:48.680 --> 00:26:52.559 the dial on sideband forty. We had a lot of noise on forty in 401 00:26:52.599 --> 00:26:56.880 our location, and that's something I need to track down myself. But it's 402 00:26:56.880 --> 00:27:02.160 not it's nobody's fault, it's just location. That was interesting, though it 403 00:27:02.240 --> 00:27:06.400 was so intermittent. It was intermittent, so I gotta be it. There's 404 00:27:06.400 --> 00:27:10.039 a there's a there's power line, telephone poles on power lines running down the 405 00:27:10.039 --> 00:27:12.920 dirt road that runs through the property. And I suspect there's a bad transformer 406 00:27:14.000 --> 00:27:17.160 or something in there because it isn't remittent. I think it's across the street. 407 00:27:18.119 --> 00:27:21.880 It could be. Yeah, there's a there's a it's either a natural 408 00:27:21.960 --> 00:27:23.359 gas pump or I don't think it's an oil well. But I think it's 409 00:27:23.359 --> 00:27:27.960 a natural gas well across the road from us. And so that's probably one 410 00:27:29.000 --> 00:27:32.319 hundred and fifty yards or so from where we are, but um, maybe 411 00:27:32.359 --> 00:27:34.519 two hundred yards from where we are. But it's it's not It could be 412 00:27:34.559 --> 00:27:37.759 that as well. I don't know. But yeah, forty. We we 413 00:27:37.880 --> 00:27:40.319 got some contacts on forty, but we didn't try it. We didn't try 414 00:27:40.319 --> 00:27:45.480 eighty or one sixty at all. So talk commands, talking about the bands 415 00:27:45.559 --> 00:27:48.920 man right at one o'clock. This was the first year I was able to 416 00:27:48.960 --> 00:27:53.400 jump on the radio and those bands lit up at one o'clock. I'm telling 417 00:27:53.440 --> 00:27:56.240 you, a double L turns on a switch. That's that's my theory. 418 00:27:56.480 --> 00:28:00.160 No one's proved me wrong on that. Yeah, that's my theory. Any 419 00:28:00.519 --> 00:28:04.119 frequency, Like I put my call our calls club call out, I had 420 00:28:04.160 --> 00:28:08.279 three people answer. I'm like, which one of y'all I'm talking to here? 421 00:28:10.279 --> 00:28:14.039 Because I was answering Guy A and Guy B and C came back on 422 00:28:14.160 --> 00:28:17.599 trying to work me. Yes, like yeah, y'all, go away, 423 00:28:17.799 --> 00:28:21.200 you're You're not. I wasn't trying to talk to you. Uh yeah, 424 00:28:22.359 --> 00:28:26.400 take command, Frank, take that mand Yeah, well hey, hey, 425 00:28:26.680 --> 00:28:29.079 you know what And if Frank, you and I both did this, I'm 426 00:28:29.079 --> 00:28:30.240 not. I'm not bagging on you. I'm really not. But you and 427 00:28:30.279 --> 00:28:36.319 I both are so used to working PODA that I caught myself almost calling CQU 428 00:28:36.400 --> 00:28:40.319 Poda instead of c Q fiel day Company times, and and and and saying 429 00:28:40.319 --> 00:28:42.279 my own call sign instead of K and five tr club call sign. So 430 00:28:42.319 --> 00:28:45.160 I'm just like crap. I was like, man, I need to get 431 00:28:45.200 --> 00:28:49.319 out of PODA mode. Yeah, oh yeah, you're five nine. Oh 432 00:28:49.400 --> 00:28:52.960 no, you're not, you're three alpha or texting? Yeah, yeah, 433 00:28:53.160 --> 00:28:56.880 it was. It's poda is Poda is awesome. I love Poda, but 434 00:28:56.920 --> 00:29:03.960 it's hard to get out of that rut. Yeah, that so, what's 435 00:29:04.000 --> 00:29:11.240 that, Adam. I heard a guy calling winter Winterfield dead. Oh, 436 00:29:11.279 --> 00:29:15.279 that must have been Charlie when it was twenty eight degrees. Yeah, it's 437 00:29:15.319 --> 00:29:18.519 probably it's probably those Arizona guys when it was middle of the night or something. 438 00:29:18.839 --> 00:29:26.319 So my experience was I made the ribs and those were awesome. They 439 00:29:26.319 --> 00:29:29.680 were good. They were good. And that was Friday. I really enjoyed 440 00:29:29.720 --> 00:29:33.720 this year, not cooking anything on the Saturday of so I can jumped on 441 00:29:33.759 --> 00:29:37.960 the radio right at right at the get go. I enjoyed that. And 442 00:29:37.960 --> 00:29:41.839 and just the friends that we had around all weekend. It was amazing to 443 00:29:41.920 --> 00:29:48.559 hang out for everybody and just relax and chill and play radio. Yeah. 444 00:29:48.680 --> 00:29:52.839 Absolutely, so I noticed. And this didn't seem to last very I'm want 445 00:29:52.839 --> 00:29:56.039 to know what everybody else thought about this. This didn't seem to last very 446 00:29:56.079 --> 00:29:57.720 long. I was hoping Kyle would be on the stream tonight because he has 447 00:29:57.960 --> 00:30:04.079 U he has experienced and what I'm about to say, there were a lot 448 00:30:04.119 --> 00:30:11.799 of overdriven signals for like the first three or fourt Now, let me let 449 00:30:11.839 --> 00:30:14.319 me let me clarify what I'm saying here. I think a lot of these 450 00:30:14.319 --> 00:30:19.279 guys were working remote and using computer microphones which suck or which that well, 451 00:30:19.319 --> 00:30:22.759 they're sucked. And that's why it was overdriven. That's why I was talking 452 00:30:22.759 --> 00:30:25.920 about Kyle. Not that Kyle overdrives his stuff, don't. I'm not. 453 00:30:26.039 --> 00:30:27.480 I'm not trying to bag on Kyle. I'm really not. Although he's not 454 00:30:27.559 --> 00:30:32.799 here so we might as well. But No, there were a lot of 455 00:30:32.839 --> 00:30:34.720 really like like these guys would come back, like I'd be calling c q 456 00:30:34.920 --> 00:30:37.920 c Q field Day and this guy would come back to me and I swear 457 00:30:38.000 --> 00:30:42.519 he was sitting in the lot next to me with his eleven meter amplifier cranked 458 00:30:42.599 --> 00:30:45.319 up to maximum volume, with the with the mic game turned all the way 459 00:30:45.359 --> 00:30:48.039 up, and I'm like, dude, I can't even understand what the hell 460 00:30:48.079 --> 00:30:49.839 you're saying. Yep, you know, And it was there was a lot 461 00:30:49.880 --> 00:30:52.880 of background noise. It sounded like oh, and there were a lot of 462 00:30:52.920 --> 00:30:56.039 guys who were apparently using the Galaxy eighty eight because they were running their echo 463 00:30:56.079 --> 00:31:00.559 white Ope. It was like c q c Q field day, field Day, 464 00:31:00.599 --> 00:31:02.839 field Day, field Day, And I'm like, dude, go back 465 00:31:02.839 --> 00:31:06.200 to channel nineteen, what is wrong with you? So I don't know if 466 00:31:06.200 --> 00:31:08.880 these guys were just in loudass rooms with no carpet on the floor or I 467 00:31:10.680 --> 00:31:14.039 don't know, but that seemed that seemed to last like the first for me. 468 00:31:14.240 --> 00:31:17.079 For us, I noticed that the first three or four hours, and 469 00:31:17.079 --> 00:31:18.039 then it kind of seemed to die down after that, and I didn't know 470 00:31:18.119 --> 00:31:22.160 so much anymore. It was, you know, hard to work people because 471 00:31:22.000 --> 00:31:26.359 they were literally right by us, sounded like right by us. And I 472 00:31:26.400 --> 00:31:30.759 can write, yeah, I can't make a word out never so distorted. 473 00:31:30.839 --> 00:31:33.440 Yeah, if you say Kyle's name enough, he's like candyman, he shows 474 00:31:33.519 --> 00:31:38.400 up Jesus. That kind of reminds me of Uh. So, there's a 475 00:31:38.440 --> 00:31:41.720 lot of older Hams in our club that have HF privileges, but they're never 476 00:31:41.799 --> 00:31:45.039 on HF. And so I was sitting with one running a pile up and 477 00:31:45.119 --> 00:31:48.279 I would say. I said to him, I said, you can tell 478 00:31:48.279 --> 00:31:51.599 the guys that are running power, you know, yes, and and and 479 00:31:51.640 --> 00:31:52.599 he's like, what do you mean. I said, well, listen to 480 00:31:52.599 --> 00:31:56.279 the way it sounds right. And so it's really funny when like a guy 481 00:31:56.319 --> 00:31:59.599 who's been licensed for I don't know, three years, because I'm on HF 482 00:31:59.640 --> 00:32:01.480 all the time. But anyways, there's a lot of guys who were running 483 00:32:01.480 --> 00:32:06.039 power. I'd say that not well not okay, a small percentage, but 484 00:32:06.079 --> 00:32:08.559 you know, you'd hear it Um running power, and it was kind of 485 00:32:08.559 --> 00:32:13.680 like, all right, Cheeter, you know what, there's nothing, there's 486 00:32:13.759 --> 00:32:16.599 nothing. There's nothing wrong with q R. O okay, but learn how 487 00:32:16.640 --> 00:32:20.279 to tune up your stuff, man, you know, don't don't tell us 488 00:32:20.799 --> 00:32:22.759 Adam needs to put his hands over his ears. There's nothing wrong with q 489 00:32:22.880 --> 00:32:28.519 R. Yeah, well that's true, that's true. Yes, but these 490 00:32:28.559 --> 00:32:31.559 guys were either oh my god, these I don't know. I don't know, 491 00:32:31.680 --> 00:32:35.519 these these guys were. I guess you could do it with like a 492 00:32:35.920 --> 00:32:39.000 twenty or thirty dB game antenna. You're not power, but I don't know. 493 00:32:39.200 --> 00:32:45.119 I mean when when you're running six y on field day? Yeah, 494 00:32:45.160 --> 00:32:51.000 everybody else day there was one station we I swear. I was like, 495 00:32:51.279 --> 00:32:52.359 that's an AM station. Guy. They're like, no, no, it's 496 00:32:52.400 --> 00:32:55.079 not, it's not an AM station. I'm like, holy glad up. 497 00:32:55.880 --> 00:33:00.640 So yeah, anyway, anyway, Kyle, welcome to them on this buddy. 498 00:33:00.920 --> 00:33:02.400 Tell us about your field day experience. Yeah, it was good. 499 00:33:02.640 --> 00:33:07.160 We Um. I went to my club and helped set up for a while 500 00:33:07.240 --> 00:33:10.000 and then I did the tour around Saint Louis. I think I hit five 501 00:33:10.759 --> 00:33:16.240 field days throughout the Saturday. So clubs, yeah, all clubs. All 502 00:33:16.279 --> 00:33:22.279 people either are cool, small clubs, big clubs. It was very light 503 00:33:22.359 --> 00:33:24.920 this year because of the heat. There was a lot. It was hot 504 00:33:24.960 --> 00:33:30.920 here, so in years past there had been more people at some of these 505 00:33:30.920 --> 00:33:32.680 clubs. But yeah, it was good. The bands were okay. I 506 00:33:32.720 --> 00:33:38.759 came home on Sunday night late and I'm sorry Saturday night and got some sleep 507 00:33:38.799 --> 00:33:45.160 and got up the morning this morning and did some did some running and bands 508 00:33:45.160 --> 00:33:50.119 were this morning twenty was great. I was hitting the coast. Yes, 509 00:33:50.839 --> 00:33:53.640 I have noticed in the past that if you a lot of guys would just 510 00:33:53.720 --> 00:33:58.200 kind of hit the ground running when one o'clock, I'd say one o'clock, 511 00:33:58.240 --> 00:34:01.359 when eighteen hundred UTC gets here, or just hit the ground running, and 512 00:34:01.400 --> 00:34:06.960 then like by late Saturday night or early Sunday morning, you've got the same 513 00:34:07.000 --> 00:34:10.159 stations on there calling CQU field Day and you've worked them all. So my 514 00:34:10.280 --> 00:34:14.119 theory has always been I was like, you know, just wait like six 515 00:34:14.159 --> 00:34:17.159 hours and then start working people because they're they're gonna want to work you because 516 00:34:17.280 --> 00:34:20.840 there are a call sign you haven't heard before, So I don't know. 517 00:34:20.880 --> 00:34:23.920 I mean, it's just it depends on propagation obviously, But um yeah, 518 00:34:23.920 --> 00:34:27.760 I always always thought that, you know, do a delayed field day and 519 00:34:27.800 --> 00:34:30.159 actually work the guys who were up on Saturday night late and Sunday morning and 520 00:34:30.239 --> 00:34:36.039 Sunday late morning. See see how that works. I've always just seeing you 521 00:34:36.039 --> 00:34:40.639 to say that, because go ahead, I was gonna ask Kyle that satellite 522 00:34:40.679 --> 00:34:45.239 contact you posted this weekend, was that may during field day? And what 523 00:34:45.559 --> 00:34:49.280 did you register that for your club? No? No, I didn't even 524 00:34:49.280 --> 00:34:52.679 take my satellite stuff to day the clubs because I knew that, Um I 525 00:34:52.840 --> 00:34:57.679 was. I'm too busy socializing and just hanging out to do any of that 526 00:34:57.719 --> 00:35:00.519 stuff. So yeah, Charlie, I was just gonna say, our club, 527 00:35:00.880 --> 00:35:02.960 they do an interesting thing. I'm not sure I agree with, but 528 00:35:04.000 --> 00:35:06.719 it's kind of on the line with what you're talking about. So right at 529 00:35:06.880 --> 00:35:10.079 eighteen hundred UTC, we hit the ground for a couple hours to three hours, 530 00:35:10.119 --> 00:35:15.159 and then lights are out, we have like a pot luck lunch, 531 00:35:15.079 --> 00:35:21.480 Lenard, I guess it's yeah, yeah, and there's no operation until that's 532 00:35:21.480 --> 00:35:25.199 over, and then we have a raffle drawing and we have the field day 533 00:35:25.239 --> 00:35:29.559 pictures and everything. Then it's probably dinner time before we start back up again. 534 00:35:30.159 --> 00:35:34.119 But I you know, it works for us. That's good, you 535 00:35:34.159 --> 00:35:37.480 know, I mean, it depends on propagation. The propagation lately has been 536 00:35:37.519 --> 00:35:39.719 pretty good, although again I was I was really hoping to do some six 537 00:35:39.800 --> 00:35:44.239 meter contacts this Fiel day and we didn't get to do that. But if 538 00:35:44.239 --> 00:35:46.360 the bands are dead, then you're not gonna work very many people at all. 539 00:35:46.360 --> 00:35:52.480 But if the bands are alive, twenty meters was it was? You 540 00:35:52.480 --> 00:35:55.920 know? It was? Yeah, So Brian and I are the only two 541 00:35:57.000 --> 00:35:59.639 CW ops, So it was he and I were basically the only two to 542 00:35:59.760 --> 00:36:04.320 run and c W the whole time, and we had no reason during the 543 00:36:04.440 --> 00:36:07.400 day up until about, I don't know, until till it got dark to 544 00:36:07.440 --> 00:36:10.360 get to move off of twenty meters. When it got dark, we were 545 00:36:10.360 --> 00:36:15.559 on forty the whole time until about eight am, and then we moved back 546 00:36:15.559 --> 00:36:17.320 to twenty. We had no reason to go anywhere else. So that's that's 547 00:36:17.320 --> 00:36:22.119 how that's how they get The conditions were in our mind, dude. That's 548 00:36:22.119 --> 00:36:27.559 so you're a hardcore about this, I go to bed, no things. 549 00:36:28.840 --> 00:36:30.679 We went to bed too. We operated till late, you know, I 550 00:36:30.679 --> 00:36:32.960 don't know, tennish, and then I went to bed, and then I 551 00:36:34.039 --> 00:36:36.639 got up at five, So over the middle of the night we didn't really 552 00:36:36.639 --> 00:36:38.679 do too Yeah, get getting up at five does that doesn't compute? But 553 00:36:38.760 --> 00:36:43.000 we I was up. Um, I was up till probably eleven eleven thirty 554 00:36:43.079 --> 00:36:45.960 last night working and fifteen meters actually finally died. I'd say it died. 555 00:36:46.079 --> 00:36:52.039 It it The waterfall wasn't as full when I shut the computer off it like 556 00:36:52.199 --> 00:36:54.920 eleven fifteen or so last night, so there were still stations after calling CQ 557 00:36:55.039 --> 00:37:00.199 field day, so that that was fun. But um, we're so, 558 00:37:00.760 --> 00:37:04.239 is the CW portion of the band? Is it hard to find a clear 559 00:37:04.280 --> 00:37:08.320 frequency to call CQ like it is on sideband. It's a little easier, 560 00:37:08.360 --> 00:37:13.119 I think easier, but it's pretty it's still pretty hard sometimes. Go ahead. 561 00:37:14.199 --> 00:37:16.920 It's a lot easier because CW is so narrow in bandwidth. You can 562 00:37:19.239 --> 00:37:22.280 and just you know, set your filter down narrow and you can be every 563 00:37:22.400 --> 00:37:28.039 you know, maybe two hundred, two hundred hurts, three hundred hurts and 564 00:37:28.039 --> 00:37:30.719 and still have a clear enough frequency to be able to operate, so there's 565 00:37:30.760 --> 00:37:36.960 plenty of room and it's way easier to work people. I wondered about that 566 00:37:37.079 --> 00:37:39.119 because, if I'm not mistaken, on most bands, the CDW portion of 567 00:37:39.119 --> 00:37:43.760 the band is narrower than the sideband portion of the phone portion of the band. 568 00:37:44.360 --> 00:37:50.239 And also um CW is more low noise. It's it's it's a it's 569 00:37:50.239 --> 00:37:52.880 a lower noise signal than sideband. Is a little bit, a little bit 570 00:37:52.880 --> 00:37:55.320 harder to make sideband contact than CW. So I'm like, well, given 571 00:37:55.320 --> 00:37:59.880 those two features, I would think that they'd be pretty full, that that 572 00:38:00.079 --> 00:38:01.920 section of the band would be pretty full. But okay, I mean that's 573 00:38:01.920 --> 00:38:04.760 good to know. It's good information. That's why I asked. Yeah, 574 00:38:04.800 --> 00:38:07.559 well, I mean that you could find spots, but it's still i mean, 575 00:38:07.440 --> 00:38:10.480 end to end, it's pretty there's somebody there. Yeah, okay, 576 00:38:10.639 --> 00:38:15.800 did you guys, did you guys hear the have a lot of interference or 577 00:38:15.320 --> 00:38:21.079 from the European contest that happened this weekend. No, nothing here. So 578 00:38:21.119 --> 00:38:23.719 there's there's certain periods where there's a lot of europe There's a European contest that 579 00:38:23.840 --> 00:38:29.159 was happening, So it was started, it started became there. You know, 580 00:38:29.440 --> 00:38:31.360 people will be like CQU contest, contest, and then you just by 581 00:38:31.400 --> 00:38:35.079 the accident, you'd have to you know, okay, that's not the contest. 582 00:38:35.119 --> 00:38:37.440 I'm working. Good luck. I did hear a guy. I did 583 00:38:37.480 --> 00:38:43.679 hear. I believe this guy was. I want to say he was South 584 00:38:43.719 --> 00:38:51.039 American. I want to say it was a Hondura Hotel India station, or 585 00:38:51.079 --> 00:38:54.360 perhaps a Papa Yankee station, but it could have been an Echo alpha. 586 00:38:54.400 --> 00:38:58.400 It could have been a Spanish station, because I did hear some Spanish station 587 00:38:58.559 --> 00:39:02.719 and there was a guy with a Spanish accent, Latin American or traditional Spanish. 588 00:39:02.719 --> 00:39:07.960 I don't remember calling CQU contest and then I'm like, are you working 589 00:39:07.000 --> 00:39:09.880 field day or what is there some other I didn't know what contest he was 590 00:39:09.960 --> 00:39:14.079 talking about. It doesn't better. You could still take their content, of 591 00:39:14.119 --> 00:39:15.679 course, and I tried to call him back and he wouldn't come back to 592 00:39:15.719 --> 00:39:20.400 me, so I wasn't making it to him modly. But yeah, yeah, 593 00:39:20.480 --> 00:39:22.039 very well. If he was in South America, he was running about 594 00:39:22.039 --> 00:39:27.719 three to four kW. Yeah, so I'm just saying true. I'm just 595 00:39:27.760 --> 00:39:30.719 saying, well. One of the issues we had a field day was antennas 596 00:39:31.199 --> 00:39:36.280 not a major issue, but with the three stations, especially the GODA, 597 00:39:36.679 --> 00:39:38.559 I think it's been I might be wrong, but it's been quite a while 598 00:39:38.559 --> 00:39:44.519 since our club had an actual field day. And um so, out of 599 00:39:44.519 --> 00:39:49.239 like the huge box of antennas, only one worked and another guy brought one 600 00:39:49.559 --> 00:39:52.320 and so we tried at Jerry Reagan antenna. It didn't work. So I 601 00:39:52.400 --> 00:39:55.519 came home. I climbed on my tower. Oh no, I took down. 602 00:39:57.119 --> 00:40:01.320 I don't like where this is going work. Oh wow, I took 603 00:40:01.400 --> 00:40:07.400 down. I took down my G five RV Junior and we hope better. 604 00:40:07.840 --> 00:40:12.599 Yeah, and and that thing was a rock star and uh, but we 605 00:40:12.679 --> 00:40:15.480 had issues with antenna's. It took like it was. We spent a lot 606 00:40:15.559 --> 00:40:19.559 of time. I'm getting the antenna's going. But uh, at the end 607 00:40:19.599 --> 00:40:22.559 of the day, and Jason, I googled this quickly. I saw a 608 00:40:22.639 --> 00:40:25.880 video of yours. One of our club members was saying about getting two stations 609 00:40:27.000 --> 00:40:31.119 on one antenna, and you did a video. Uh, two radios one 610 00:40:31.159 --> 00:40:36.559 antenna. This was the Triples. I don't think that that was me. 611 00:40:37.239 --> 00:40:39.559 No, no, no, that's a bad video. You, I swear, 612 00:40:39.840 --> 00:40:45.320 but I didn't watch. Do not Google that I do not do, 613 00:40:45.559 --> 00:40:47.719 not freaking google that listen. I didn't I didn't watch the video. I 614 00:40:47.840 --> 00:40:51.199 didn't watch the video, so it could have been the idea of putting an 615 00:40:51.239 --> 00:40:55.239 antenna switch. Okay, but but but I was like, I don't think, 616 00:40:55.280 --> 00:40:59.800 I don't think. I am no, no, no, I'm this. 617 00:41:00.800 --> 00:41:07.800 I'll look it up. But um so, I now Carlos Carlos talking 618 00:41:07.880 --> 00:41:14.199 about cargistered Carlos is a deviant and that's why he's laughing harder than anyone else's 619 00:41:14.280 --> 00:41:16.559 right now. He knows exactly what you're talking about. This guy, Yeah, 620 00:41:16.639 --> 00:41:23.840 okay, all right, you go ahead saying. He almost got angry 621 00:41:23.880 --> 00:41:25.880 at me, and I was like, you want to run two and ten? 622 00:41:25.960 --> 00:41:29.119 I was, I mean two radios on one and ten. At the 623 00:41:29.159 --> 00:41:30.079 same time, He's like, yeah, I'm like, I don't know. 624 00:41:30.159 --> 00:41:34.320 I have a tri I have a triplex. I have a triplexer. For 625 00:41:34.360 --> 00:41:37.440 the buddy HECKX, they make a pen. They make a penteplexer, which 626 00:41:37.559 --> 00:41:40.880 is five bands. It's ten through twenty ten, twelve, fifteen, seventeen, 627 00:41:40.920 --> 00:41:45.679 and twenty. I didn't buy that because it's literally twice the price to 628 00:41:45.719 --> 00:41:47.920 get twelve and seventeen. I bought the triplexer from DX Engineer. He's like 629 00:41:49.000 --> 00:41:52.760 three fifty for the triplexer, about seven hundred for the penteplexer. The triplexer 630 00:41:52.800 --> 00:41:55.039 would do ten, fifteen and twenty, which are your non work bands, 631 00:41:55.079 --> 00:41:59.239 which are the field day bands. I bought that a couple of years ago, 632 00:41:59.320 --> 00:42:02.039 so we can use Buddy Hecks to do a station on ten, fifteen 633 00:42:02.079 --> 00:42:05.599 and twenty sideband. In fact, that's what Frank and I were on. 634 00:42:05.679 --> 00:42:08.239 Faker and I both had our FTDX tens. He was on twenty meters sideband. 635 00:42:08.239 --> 00:42:10.360 I was on fifteen meter ft eight. Both on the Buddy hacks all 636 00:42:10.400 --> 00:42:15.280 weekend. So yeah, absolutely, right there, Jason, look at that 637 00:42:15.360 --> 00:42:20.320 face right there. Yeah, that's my two radios. Okay. I've probably 638 00:42:20.360 --> 00:42:23.360 had a couple of beers since then. All right, So I want to 639 00:42:23.679 --> 00:42:25.800 I want to say hi to Don and Jim, and then I have a 640 00:42:25.880 --> 00:42:30.480 question for you guys. That something that came up a couple of three weeks 641 00:42:30.519 --> 00:42:34.000 ago. But it's it's an intent of question, So I curious to see 642 00:42:34.000 --> 00:42:37.079 what you guys want to how you guys will answer it. Don, what's 643 00:42:37.119 --> 00:42:38.599 going on, Buddy? Did you work field Day this weekend? Yeah? 644 00:42:38.639 --> 00:42:42.599 I did, but I just want to let everyone know something thanks to Molson, 645 00:42:42.719 --> 00:42:45.280 somebody just charged my credit card to what he was talking about. So 646 00:42:45.440 --> 00:42:50.760 I don't know what what what kind of sites you he has? Nobody somebody 647 00:42:50.960 --> 00:42:59.840 somebody Molson spending your money? Yeah, yeah, somebody just fans seriously only 648 00:43:00.000 --> 00:43:06.039 as hey. I had fun with my with my club. We did something 649 00:43:06.079 --> 00:43:08.559 a little bit different this year. I took the ten zero seven n fed 650 00:43:08.840 --> 00:43:14.559 sloper to balance about sixty seven feet and I ran it as a inverted V. 651 00:43:14.760 --> 00:43:19.559 Now, normally I run that as a sloper randed as the inverted V. 652 00:43:20.119 --> 00:43:23.199 It did fairly well, but here in Connecticut, um, I didn't 653 00:43:23.280 --> 00:43:27.760 like how the bands were operating on twenty and forties. So, you know, 654 00:43:28.119 --> 00:43:30.480 like any other good hamd what do we do? How do we plan 655 00:43:30.599 --> 00:43:32.480 for? When? Or when do we start planning for field day for next 656 00:43:32.599 --> 00:43:37.400 year? Right away? And I'm gonna and I'm gonna query my group to 657 00:43:37.480 --> 00:43:39.960 see if they want to do something. Don't do it at the two o'clock 658 00:43:40.079 --> 00:43:44.480 start time. Let's do something for maybe six or seven o'clock, five o'clock 659 00:43:44.519 --> 00:43:47.280 in the year on the east clock start time. Well, yeah, you're 660 00:43:47.400 --> 00:43:54.960 time. I'm sorry. The correct times time because when I big so when 661 00:43:55.000 --> 00:43:59.760 I left, when I left our site and I got home around six o'clock 662 00:44:00.199 --> 00:44:02.719 o'clock from right from this Loka, I was using my seven or six mark 663 00:44:02.719 --> 00:44:07.480 two G. I think I did close to eighty nine contacts in about in 664 00:44:07.519 --> 00:44:14.000 about three hours. Three and a half hours. M forty was incredible. 665 00:44:15.039 --> 00:44:17.119 Twenty was good. I worked Frank and I don't know who else. I 666 00:44:17.239 --> 00:44:20.880 heard that I was sitting. I was sitting next to Frank. If we 667 00:44:20.960 --> 00:44:22.199 were working separate call signs, I would have picked up the mic. But 668 00:44:22.320 --> 00:44:24.880 you got our club calls, so that was Yeah, that was cool. 669 00:44:24.960 --> 00:44:28.280 I heard you work, Frank. That was cool and it was hard. 670 00:44:28.320 --> 00:44:31.119 I gotta tell you soon because I was pulling in Arizona. I worked California. 671 00:44:31.159 --> 00:44:37.519 I worked the Lax identifier, which has really been hard lately. But 672 00:44:37.639 --> 00:44:39.400 I gotta Tyson. It was fun, man, It's all about having fun, 673 00:44:39.480 --> 00:44:44.000 camaraderie, trying something new. But I want to do something different next 674 00:44:44.079 --> 00:44:46.639 year. I think here for for us in Connecticut, and like I said, 675 00:44:46.679 --> 00:44:51.239 we got three hundred and sixty four days to figure it out. You 676 00:44:51.239 --> 00:44:54.360 should join us in Canada with Nelson. Yeah, we're gonna go up there 677 00:44:54.400 --> 00:44:59.159 and take We're gonna take jackets and heaters up there and have a real field 678 00:44:59.199 --> 00:45:02.599 day for winter field day. So we're gonna do no no, no like 679 00:45:02.920 --> 00:45:07.920 like apparently apparently it's it's like cold in Canada or during this time of year. 680 00:45:07.480 --> 00:45:09.920 Sorry, and you're in Connecticut. You don't know what he is. 681 00:45:10.119 --> 00:45:14.280 I mean, you get the refund. Let me get that refund that somebody 682 00:45:14.360 --> 00:45:15.639 just charged me on that because I went to that site that he was just 683 00:45:16.760 --> 00:45:21.559 I won't fly the money towards it. Yeah, that sounds great for Steves, 684 00:45:21.599 --> 00:45:23.559 that that'd be a beautiful place to have a field. That's a great. 685 00:45:23.599 --> 00:45:25.719 Hey, you could put an intent on top of that water tower right 686 00:45:25.760 --> 00:45:30.760 there. Yeah, there isn't ladder line. I can't see it. No, 687 00:45:30.920 --> 00:45:36.960 but that doesn't mean anything. I see it. Yeah, double Jason, 688 00:45:37.039 --> 00:45:40.000 did you talk about the set up at the dear least? I mean, 689 00:45:40.159 --> 00:45:43.119 I need just slide out of the ways you can see the picture. 690 00:45:43.760 --> 00:45:46.519 You didn't talk about what we were doing, what radios and no. But 691 00:45:46.639 --> 00:45:50.199 I I was gonna. I was waiting. I was waiting to put us 692 00:45:50.280 --> 00:45:52.599 last. Okay, So so I was I was inviting all my guests first 693 00:45:52.719 --> 00:45:57.320 as maybe maybe Ham Radio Clubhouse didn't do that. I don't know. You 694 00:45:57.360 --> 00:46:05.239 guys a bunch of jackets. They will let nothing. Yeah, they'll let 695 00:46:05.320 --> 00:46:07.039 the guests in after an hour or two, right right? Yeah? Yeah, 696 00:46:07.360 --> 00:46:09.679 oh yeah, we got a guest tonight. I think who is it 697 00:46:09.760 --> 00:46:14.400 again? Yeah? Remember that next time you begged to come on to the 698 00:46:14.440 --> 00:46:20.320 show, Frank, Yeah, busted, Frank. That's right. Let's go 699 00:46:20.400 --> 00:46:22.559 to Jim Man. What do you do for field day? Bud ft eight 700 00:46:23.079 --> 00:46:27.639 lots. That's great, there's nothing wrong with that. That's it. I 701 00:46:27.960 --> 00:46:30.280 don't really I don't have a club I hang out with or anything, so 702 00:46:30.400 --> 00:46:35.920 I don't have any big plans. I just I did. I did get 703 00:46:35.960 --> 00:46:37.280 frosty and put it on a battery for a little while, and I got 704 00:46:37.320 --> 00:46:40.639 tired of that. Now, Jim, are you up in Where the heck 705 00:46:40.679 --> 00:46:45.599 are you? Are you in Wisconsin or Chicago or no, I'm I'm from 706 00:46:45.760 --> 00:46:49.760 Chicago. I live in Alabama. Okay, maybe I'm thinking of where you're 707 00:46:49.840 --> 00:46:52.440 where you said you were. Yeah, yeah, so you're in Alabama. 708 00:46:52.880 --> 00:46:55.880 Yes, Okay, it's like it's probably I was gonna say it's probably hot 709 00:46:55.920 --> 00:47:00.000 down there for you guys as well, right, and swamp like absolutely, 710 00:47:00.519 --> 00:47:04.559 yeah, yeah, okay, you should want to join Joe Brett. Joe 711 00:47:04.599 --> 00:47:07.159 Brett like two hundred three hundred miles away from me. It's not that far 712 00:47:07.320 --> 00:47:10.559 a drive that's like that's like a court that's like a third of the way 713 00:47:10.599 --> 00:47:15.639 through Texas. That's and it's just the swampy at Joe Brett's house as it 714 00:47:15.800 --> 00:47:19.880 is here. So yeah, I'm saved the gas. Speaking up, where 715 00:47:19.960 --> 00:47:22.599 is Joe Brett? I don't know. He was on. He put a 716 00:47:23.159 --> 00:47:27.559 he put a video up. No one was watching some video from Joe Brett 717 00:47:27.679 --> 00:47:30.400 like last night during while we were operating, and he's like that guy's out 718 00:47:30.440 --> 00:47:34.800 of focus and I'm like, really, Joe bretton maybe he's drunk. I 719 00:47:34.840 --> 00:47:40.079 don't know too much. Peanut butter whiskey probably for that dude. So that's 720 00:47:40.119 --> 00:47:45.039 good. No, it is still calling CQ. Yeah, a call on 721 00:47:45.159 --> 00:47:49.440 CQ. Carlos, did you tell him about the club you went? I 722 00:47:49.559 --> 00:47:52.199 did my club? Well, I told you you called me an idiot, 723 00:47:52.239 --> 00:47:54.440 for I did not call you an idiot. I just said, hey, 724 00:47:54.559 --> 00:47:58.440 dude, you realize it's not over yet. For like about two hours. 725 00:48:00.079 --> 00:48:01.400 Yeah, my club shot down at two o'clock, and so that the other 726 00:48:01.440 --> 00:48:06.000 club and I'm like, one must be over at two o'clock. It is 727 00:48:06.039 --> 00:48:08.480 two, it's two o'clock eastern. Well, there's a difference if you set 728 00:48:08.559 --> 00:48:14.239 up your antennas beforehand, if you set it up after it ends at eighteen 729 00:48:14.360 --> 00:48:21.239 hundred or seventeen fifteen nine UTC. Negative is that new this year? It 730 00:48:21.360 --> 00:48:23.559 always used to. It always needs to be twenty four hours. No, 731 00:48:23.880 --> 00:48:27.920 no, no. The rules are if you not if you're a club, 732 00:48:28.280 --> 00:48:30.320 well I don't know if you're if you need to be a club, but 733 00:48:30.400 --> 00:48:36.400 if you if you do not start putting up antennas after eighteen hundred UTC, 734 00:48:36.679 --> 00:48:43.079 you can work those extra hours, which we did. Yep, that's what 735 00:48:43.199 --> 00:48:46.199 you guys did. Josh. Yeah, Um, you guys were talking really 736 00:48:46.280 --> 00:48:49.400 quick because I know you guys have kind of already covered us, but you 737 00:48:49.480 --> 00:48:52.880 were talking about the weather conditions one hundred and something in Texas for instance. 738 00:48:53.360 --> 00:48:58.039 Yeah, funny day out on the island, but we got hit with it 739 00:48:58.159 --> 00:49:02.960 was like twenty five mile an hour way and like some righteous wins out there. 740 00:49:04.079 --> 00:49:08.000 Yeah, buddy, your your your high iPad hates you right now. 741 00:49:08.320 --> 00:49:14.159 Yeah, yeah, yeah, that was crazy. Ye so there was a 742 00:49:14.880 --> 00:49:17.119 There was a year at winter field Day a couple of years ago where I 743 00:49:17.159 --> 00:49:20.679 had the Buddy Hecks up and there was win so bad at winter field Day 744 00:49:20.719 --> 00:49:23.039 in January where I took a video of this because it kept happening. I 745 00:49:23.079 --> 00:49:28.199 sent it to Chris and it literally went ninety degrees and popped right back, 746 00:49:28.400 --> 00:49:30.800 and then it went ninety degrees again, and it kind of stayed there for 747 00:49:30.920 --> 00:49:32.599 like two seconds and it popped right back, and I sent that to Chris 748 00:49:32.639 --> 00:49:37.079 and I'm like, dude, this thing's actually pretty resilient. It's actually kind 749 00:49:37.119 --> 00:49:38.280 of fun to watch this day breaks. I need you to send me a 750 00:49:38.320 --> 00:49:42.800 new one. But yeah, yeah, no he did. It didn't break 751 00:49:42.840 --> 00:49:45.719 it. It survived the whole thing. So yeah, the Buddy Hecks is 752 00:49:45.760 --> 00:49:46.639 great. And wind like that, Yeah, that would have been. That 753 00:49:46.639 --> 00:49:50.079 would have been tough. We had thirty mile wins, but it was the 754 00:49:50.159 --> 00:49:52.400 day before so we were lucky. But that that would have been We would 755 00:49:52.440 --> 00:49:55.440 have had a hard time throwing up our antennas into the trees with the wind 756 00:49:55.519 --> 00:49:58.719 like that. Man, it would have been a tough one. We did 757 00:49:58.800 --> 00:50:00.960 not have. We didn't not have much wind. We had a nice breeze 758 00:50:00.960 --> 00:50:06.159 all weekend, which was welcomed because it was so hot. Yeah, but 759 00:50:06.280 --> 00:50:10.239 yeah, it's typically not windy in June in Texas, but it is windy 760 00:50:10.840 --> 00:50:14.239 oftentimes, not all the time. Oftentime, it's windy in January, so 761 00:50:14.320 --> 00:50:17.480 winterfield days usually when we have to contend with wind. But good. That 762 00:50:17.599 --> 00:50:21.119 was a good choice of antenna, Josh, because that thing will will stand 763 00:50:21.199 --> 00:50:22.559 up to it for sure. We had a lot. In fact, the 764 00:50:22.800 --> 00:50:27.840 one that Adam brought his twenty meter half square right was was fantastic. It 765 00:50:27.920 --> 00:50:30.599 was really really good. In fact, Adam ran twenty most of the time, 766 00:50:30.639 --> 00:50:36.199 and I did fifteen sideband or FT eight or both. We had some 767 00:50:36.320 --> 00:50:38.599 issues with radio, so it was a lot of FT eight you did sideband. 768 00:50:39.079 --> 00:50:44.679 I did a few sideband contacts, but we had some strong local rum 769 00:50:45.599 --> 00:50:52.000 mystery sources. It was just it was a lot easier to work to SEW 770 00:50:52.159 --> 00:50:59.920 stations than bideband stations, so I did mostly Okay, I got on fifteen 771 00:51:00.079 --> 00:51:07.639 meter sideband yesterday, or let's see Saturday afternoon, I got on Saturday evening 772 00:51:07.119 --> 00:51:10.280 dinner time. Maybe I got on fifteen years sideband and I just tuned up 773 00:51:10.320 --> 00:51:14.440 and down the band I'll tell you what, everybody who's on twenty meter sideband 774 00:51:14.559 --> 00:51:19.239 that can't find a freaking spot, go down to fifteen, because my god, 775 00:51:19.480 --> 00:51:23.480 it is. I mean, there's like five kill five killer hurts between 776 00:51:23.519 --> 00:51:27.320 each station, and every station you hear out there is like ten over five 777 00:51:27.480 --> 00:51:30.280 nine. It's just radical. And so I just worked up and down the 778 00:51:30.360 --> 00:51:34.880 band and went back and did a did a search and pounce to all the 779 00:51:34.920 --> 00:51:39.000 people calling CQ, and I probably made fifteen twenty contacts just hunting on fifteen 780 00:51:39.039 --> 00:51:44.480 meters sideband where the real hands are. Yeah, I know it well, 781 00:51:44.559 --> 00:51:46.119 you know I thought about I thought about changing around, but I got on 782 00:51:46.199 --> 00:51:51.239 twenty and twenty was just butter. I didn't have to do anything except member 783 00:51:51.519 --> 00:51:54.719 was scampacked. Twenty was on fire, I mean, and it always is. 784 00:51:54.760 --> 00:51:59.159 Twenty twenties, always twenties, always on fire sideband in field day, 785 00:51:59.159 --> 00:52:00.719 I'm telling me, blo. They turned, they flip a switch somewhere they 786 00:52:00.760 --> 00:52:10.079 do they flip. Fifteen meters is a neat band. I found twenty meters. 787 00:52:10.199 --> 00:52:14.960 I found twenty meters east again. This is East coast side band. 788 00:52:15.039 --> 00:52:17.800 This is around eight o'clock my time, nine o'clock. I came off of 789 00:52:17.880 --> 00:52:20.679 forty. Just like you guys. I went up and down, up and 790 00:52:20.719 --> 00:52:22.000 down, up and down, and then I said, let me let me 791 00:52:22.079 --> 00:52:29.599 try twenty right, can't hear the guys in Ohio. Uh, Missouri was 792 00:52:29.679 --> 00:52:34.679 coming in Utah again, Arizona was coming in California, was coming in Colorado, 793 00:52:34.880 --> 00:52:38.719 Montana, South Dakota. It was really really nice to work that section 794 00:52:39.440 --> 00:52:43.840 that normally is such a struggle for us, and this part of the of 795 00:52:44.000 --> 00:52:47.320 the solar cycle. So who knows, maybe it was the switch like you 796 00:52:47.360 --> 00:52:52.719 said, but it was fun though. Man twenty was really interesting because there 797 00:52:52.760 --> 00:52:55.039 were times when we were really long and we were hitting places like Connecticut, 798 00:52:55.039 --> 00:53:00.280 and then there were times where we were hitting Arizona and Colorado and Nevada on 799 00:53:00.360 --> 00:53:04.760 twenty meters and so that's really short. Yeah, I was crazy. Feel 800 00:53:05.119 --> 00:53:07.599 I heard a lot of really good sounding stations out of Arizona. When I 801 00:53:07.719 --> 00:53:12.559 had my buddy Hecks pointed north. That thing is supposed to be directional, 802 00:53:12.639 --> 00:53:15.559 it's not, okay, So you got to point north, and I'm hearing 803 00:53:15.599 --> 00:53:19.159 stations in Pennsylvania and in Arizona and a lot of really good sounding stations. 804 00:53:19.199 --> 00:53:22.440 But the thing, I the thing I loved is that it's hard Texas. 805 00:53:22.519 --> 00:53:27.199 In the middle of the country. It's hard to get Oklahoma, Kansas, 806 00:53:27.719 --> 00:53:30.599 Nebraska, South Dakota, and North Dakota, which is a straight north shot. 807 00:53:30.039 --> 00:53:34.039 Even if your intendant's pointed north. It's hard to get those because the 808 00:53:34.079 --> 00:53:38.199 propagation usually goes east west station Poda, I can't get it right those We 809 00:53:38.320 --> 00:53:42.239 got all five of those states. This, in fact, a lot of 810 00:53:42.320 --> 00:53:45.920 really good sounding stations from Kansas, but I got a few from Oklahoma, 811 00:53:45.360 --> 00:53:49.960 one or two from Nebraska. I got one or two guys from South Dakota, 812 00:53:50.039 --> 00:53:52.679 and the guy from North Dakota. I'm like, dude, thank you 813 00:53:52.760 --> 00:53:54.599 for being the only Ham radio operator in North Dakota the key up this weekend. 814 00:53:54.639 --> 00:53:58.519 I really appreciate you being out there. Yea. So it's yeah, 815 00:53:58.840 --> 00:54:00.760 I mean, it's it's very odd. It's I shouldn't say it's odd. 816 00:54:00.760 --> 00:54:05.920 It's very rare to get stations due north. I may. I don't know 817 00:54:05.960 --> 00:54:08.320 if you guys are the same way due north of wherever you live, or 818 00:54:08.400 --> 00:54:13.039 maybe perhaps due south if you're in Connecticut. But yeah, east west is 819 00:54:13.239 --> 00:54:15.880 easier, but due north is is a lot harder for us out here. 820 00:54:16.440 --> 00:54:21.960 They don't call the mid or the mid Parson of the United States the black 821 00:54:22.000 --> 00:54:25.599 hole for nothing. It's very true, that's very true. All right. 822 00:54:25.639 --> 00:54:30.000 We haven't heard the solo cycle real quickly. So well, yes, well 823 00:54:30.000 --> 00:54:34.199 it's so different if you go back to where where solar cycle twenty four was 824 00:54:34.320 --> 00:54:37.519 the last few years playing field day, win your field day, PoTA, 825 00:54:37.800 --> 00:54:43.199 it's such a different We have to almost get like retrained. Yeah, on 826 00:54:43.840 --> 00:54:45.159 where you are again. That's half the fun of it, you know, 827 00:54:45.719 --> 00:54:49.760 yes, correct, I want to hear from Chuck. We haven't heard from 828 00:54:49.800 --> 00:54:52.880 Chuck yet. What's up, buddy? How are you doing good? Um? 829 00:54:52.039 --> 00:54:55.039 I mean I didn't do anything for field day except Chase. I chased 830 00:54:57.079 --> 00:55:00.360 Josh and Adam there a little bit trying to get him on six, but 831 00:55:00.880 --> 00:55:04.079 it just wasn't working. Nice. I can get into Fresno, which is 832 00:55:04.079 --> 00:55:06.719 about halfway most of the time. I mean, well, it's in the 833 00:55:06.760 --> 00:55:09.320 evenings when they do the Bozo net. But so I thought maybe we could 834 00:55:09.320 --> 00:55:13.400 do it. But there's probably a bunch of stuff between us and didn't. 835 00:55:13.679 --> 00:55:15.440 I didn't hear anything on six. You guys actually were hearing stuff on six, 836 00:55:15.559 --> 00:55:22.199 right, I only check I only checked six meter what I said before 837 00:55:22.239 --> 00:55:24.760 you join, Chuck was we set up on Thursday and it was either Thursday 838 00:55:24.960 --> 00:55:30.320 or Friday morning. Six meters was lit like the band scope was freaking red 839 00:55:30.320 --> 00:55:34.239 fire. It was Thursday night, okay, yeah, it was on fire. 840 00:55:34.599 --> 00:55:36.800 And then by the time Saturday gets here was just dead. We didn't 841 00:55:36.840 --> 00:55:40.559 make any official field day contacts on six meters ft eight at all because it 842 00:55:40.679 --> 00:55:44.000 was just there was nothing. I checked it like three or four times and 843 00:55:44.039 --> 00:55:46.000 I listened for like ten minutes each time. I'm like, there's nothing happening 844 00:55:46.000 --> 00:55:50.079 out here right now. And I was disappointed because six meters ft has been 845 00:55:50.119 --> 00:55:53.400 great for the last couple of weeks out. I've done good on six more 846 00:55:53.519 --> 00:55:59.719 local than anything else, though a couple of years ago counts. But you 847 00:55:59.800 --> 00:56:02.000 know, we had that opening, uh what a week or so ago, 848 00:56:02.159 --> 00:56:06.519 and I was only using ten watts and I went coast to coast on ten. 849 00:56:08.880 --> 00:56:10.960 Yeah, but you got a hell of an antenna. But yes, 850 00:56:12.079 --> 00:56:14.559 ten one, I mean still ten ye, still impressive, But yeah, 851 00:56:14.719 --> 00:56:16.400 I was. I was actually surprised I made the contacts I made. I 852 00:56:16.519 --> 00:56:21.480 made like thirty contacts in about an hour, and you know, all the 853 00:56:21.519 --> 00:56:25.599 way this um that's the farthest, actually the farthest I've ever done on six 854 00:56:25.719 --> 00:56:30.880 meters, so really wow, because I run one hundred watch but the little 855 00:56:30.079 --> 00:56:36.000 lad doesn't have it only has ten watts and my aunt unfortunately doesn't do six. 856 00:56:36.199 --> 00:56:38.360 But I did. I wanted to try Josh and those guys on fifteen 857 00:56:38.440 --> 00:56:42.159 two. I did. I did talk to a guy in Texas on fifteen 858 00:56:42.280 --> 00:56:45.159 that was just booming. He was he was looking for New Zealand contacts and 859 00:56:45.199 --> 00:56:50.119 stuff, and I could hear New Zealand a little bit, but I put 860 00:56:50.159 --> 00:56:52.320 it. Yeah, I put a message in the chat like I was working 861 00:56:52.400 --> 00:56:55.880 field day on fifteen years late last night at ten to thirty eleven, and 862 00:56:57.079 --> 00:57:00.960 the ZEEL and VK stations were just yeah, I take that back. That 863 00:57:00.039 --> 00:57:02.840 was that was seventeen. I got him on. I was on. Oh 864 00:57:02.920 --> 00:57:06.880 no, I was on fifteen. Was seventeen you're not You're not supposed to 865 00:57:06.920 --> 00:57:08.639 use seventeen. No he wasn't. I wasn't. I wasn't doing film. 866 00:57:08.679 --> 00:57:12.320 Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, I get it again. Seventeen's great for 867 00:57:12.599 --> 00:57:15.719 those stations too, but I was, yeah, I was, Yeah, 868 00:57:16.079 --> 00:57:22.719 he had Josh Stenna, yeah yeah, yeah, the step by are Yeah, 869 00:57:23.159 --> 00:57:25.760 he was on that and I could hear I could hear the guys on 870 00:57:25.840 --> 00:57:29.480 my upside of my DOUBLET. I could hear the guy in New Zealand. 871 00:57:29.719 --> 00:57:32.199 I thought I could have made a contact with them, but they were all 872 00:57:32.519 --> 00:57:37.280 they were all over fifteen meters ft eight last night and I pincked Hayden. 873 00:57:37.400 --> 00:57:39.840 I'm like, dude, you get fifteen ft eight. They're like all kinds 874 00:57:39.880 --> 00:57:43.679 of ZEO and VK stations out there. Yeah, like you guys said, 875 00:57:43.800 --> 00:57:46.679 twenty was just I went onto twenty and my I had my screen up and 876 00:57:46.719 --> 00:57:52.039 it was just like almost almost the peaks were almost touching each other. You 877 00:57:52.119 --> 00:57:54.880 know, so much stuff on there, right, and it's hard. It's 878 00:57:54.920 --> 00:57:59.320 hard because you have to it's a little harder to tune than a regular radio. 879 00:57:59.320 --> 00:58:02.119 You gotta turn off the snap so you can tune those like in between 880 00:58:02.239 --> 00:58:05.280 things, you know. You know what I'm talking about. I'm sure, 881 00:58:05.360 --> 00:58:08.039 yeah, And I'm still not used to that type of a radio. I 882 00:58:08.119 --> 00:58:13.360 wish the thing had fifty lots, I'd be it'd be golden. Maybe I 883 00:58:13.440 --> 00:58:15.199 had, but I had fun just I was. I was actually building antennis 884 00:58:15.280 --> 00:58:20.440 for next year. Oh, I don't doubt that out of you Chuck, 885 00:58:20.480 --> 00:58:24.599 you probably was. I actually was tomorrow checky heckx version fourteen in the word 886 00:58:25.119 --> 00:58:28.400 No, you know, what I'm working on is a you did. We 887 00:58:28.480 --> 00:58:30.280 could sell about a thousand though I know it. I can tell him. 888 00:58:30.320 --> 00:58:35.119 I was like, I've got the logo. It's Chucky stabbing a hex beam 889 00:58:35.199 --> 00:58:38.000 with blood all over. The Logo's my idea, Bundy, I gotta get 890 00:58:38.079 --> 00:58:42.920 Poppet to make them all though. Man, that's that's a lot of word. 891 00:58:42.960 --> 00:58:45.599 Well, that's that's just I just wanted. I just want royalties. 892 00:58:45.639 --> 00:58:47.280 You have to make them all. I don't want to do the work. 893 00:58:47.920 --> 00:58:52.119 And we just all showed our age because nobody in the chat knows too. 894 00:58:52.199 --> 00:58:54.559 Chucky is right. Yeah, it's a it's a new it's a new show 895 00:58:54.639 --> 00:58:58.800 on Netflix, man, come on or USA wherever it is. I'm actually 896 00:58:58.840 --> 00:59:02.960 making a show three Element Mars for ten since tenn is I mean, since 897 00:59:04.000 --> 00:59:07.719 we did made that contact with Hayden down in Arizona. Yes, I'm thinking 898 00:59:07.119 --> 00:59:10.039 that ten's a pretty good one. Sometimes and it's not. It's twelve, 899 00:59:10.079 --> 00:59:15.119 but it ends up being twelve foot by twelve foot square, so mox moxon 900 00:59:15.239 --> 00:59:20.719 has three or four sides. It's four sided. It's usually a rectangle, 901 00:59:20.760 --> 00:59:23.400 but mine's going to be square because of the extra element. So but does 902 00:59:23.440 --> 00:59:28.039 the does the does the wire go around alf or does the wire go around 903 00:59:28.079 --> 00:59:30.519 three sides and then the fourth side that's open as your X been. Yeah, 904 00:59:30.519 --> 00:59:34.559 it goes around three sides, and then that's the other one comes back 905 00:59:34.599 --> 00:59:37.719 at it, and the front one comes back towards all of them. Gotcha. 906 00:59:37.039 --> 00:59:39.559 Okay, I don't know if it's gonna work or not. I was 907 00:59:39.599 --> 00:59:43.320 trying to make it a fold up one, but that I kind of failed 908 00:59:43.320 --> 00:59:46.079 at that today. So yeah, you done, Yeah, Chuck, I'm 909 00:59:46.119 --> 00:59:50.519 not done yet. No, it was two three sixty four more days. 910 00:59:50.920 --> 00:59:57.000 That's right, Yes, thank you so much, Thank you, Manion. 911 00:59:59.599 --> 01:00:02.119 Really cool story that Molson told about the getting new people on the air. 912 01:00:02.239 --> 01:00:05.599 So go back and watch that if you it's the first part of the stream. 913 01:00:05.719 --> 01:00:07.119 I'm gonna have to watch the first part of this on replay anyway. 914 01:00:07.840 --> 01:00:09.760 I want to. I want to know what y'all were talking about when I've 915 01:00:09.760 --> 01:00:15.800 showed up. I have a theory I know what you were talking about, 916 01:00:15.840 --> 01:00:21.000 and I'm a little frightened. It's well, Carlo Carlos said something derogatory about 917 01:00:21.039 --> 01:00:22.920 you, and then you popped into the zoom and I'm like, oh, 918 01:00:22.039 --> 01:00:25.920 well, Jim is Jim is like Kyle. You just mentioned his name three 919 01:00:25.960 --> 01:00:31.559 times. He's like, shows up beetle juice. I mean, you know, 920 01:00:32.199 --> 01:00:36.440 I was gonna say it's Josh and those guys your your hex be the 921 01:00:37.119 --> 01:00:38.559 mass thing was like I was. You had a perfect view of it, 922 01:00:38.639 --> 01:00:40.880 and that thing was you guys had it must have a guide really well, 923 01:00:40.920 --> 01:00:44.800 because that thing was as windy as it was. I was expecting to see 924 01:00:44.840 --> 01:00:49.119 that thing going crazy. Even the even the hexpeam wasn't moving a whole lot. 925 01:00:49.599 --> 01:00:52.800 So the top there's two guys on h I couldn't see the guys. 926 01:00:53.239 --> 01:00:57.800 We lowered. We lowered the heck right on top of the top. Okay, 927 01:00:58.280 --> 01:01:01.239 that's why it was total sen Yeah, I've done that before. Chuck 928 01:01:01.320 --> 01:01:07.480 needed a few lessons after after courts Fest. Holy leave it up down there, 929 01:01:07.559 --> 01:01:09.079 man, I thought my trailer might blow. It was mine was attached 930 01:01:09.119 --> 01:01:14.880 to my trailer and it was like a whipping that thing around. That's the 931 01:01:14.960 --> 01:01:17.239 trick. Dropped that thing right on the top guy, and you're you're fine, 932 01:01:17.360 --> 01:01:22.039 Yeah, it wasn't ready yet, so it was do you have the 933 01:01:22.239 --> 01:01:25.960 thirty foot mast Works Josh, I don't know, is it? That? 934 01:01:27.320 --> 01:01:30.480 Is it? That's I don't know. So so so he makes like, 935 01:01:31.280 --> 01:01:34.880 at least I think he still does this. He used to make a ten 936 01:01:34.960 --> 01:01:38.920 to twenty and thirty foot and I got the thirty foot Maskworks tripod and it 937 01:01:39.079 --> 01:01:42.440 came out. The mass Works stuff came out like a year year and a 938 01:01:42.440 --> 01:01:45.639 half before the Buddy Hecks was available. So he was putting his his dipole 939 01:01:45.800 --> 01:01:50.360 as Buddy Buddy Pole Deluxe and Buddy Poole Regular Buddy Pole on top of the 940 01:01:50.440 --> 01:01:52.960 tripod and it worked great. Great, put it all the way up thirty 941 01:01:53.000 --> 01:01:57.159 feet. Great, you put that freaking heck beam on thirty and the top 942 01:01:57.199 --> 01:02:01.639 two sections are basically worthless because they're not they're not sturdy enough to run the 943 01:02:01.760 --> 01:02:05.840 hex beam. Now, having said that, you only really need to run 944 01:02:05.880 --> 01:02:07.760 a hex beam at like twenty to twenty four feet. You don't really have 945 01:02:07.920 --> 01:02:10.920 to have a hex beam up that high. I know guys who run them 946 01:02:10.920 --> 01:02:14.599 at like ten feet and swear, swear to God they work DX with them, 947 01:02:14.639 --> 01:02:17.360 and I believe it. Yeah, yeah, well no d X, 948 01:02:17.440 --> 01:02:21.880 they're working d X. D claim they claim, that's what they claim. 949 01:02:22.039 --> 01:02:24.400 And antenna just fine, right, I mean it's you know, we're in 950 01:02:24.480 --> 01:02:28.760 a location like we're at we had some bit of elevation above the sea water, 951 01:02:28.840 --> 01:02:30.079 so it's like, yeah, it's it's it's fine, we're not we're 952 01:02:30.119 --> 01:02:35.679 not really hurt. I think minds a twenty foot or around it the twenty 953 01:02:35.719 --> 01:02:38.519 fo Yeah, and so I never used because the last sections are like they're 954 01:02:38.559 --> 01:02:42.400 they're really thin, right, They're really thin. Right. If it's a 955 01:02:42.440 --> 01:02:45.920 completely still day, yeah, sure you can get like half of that section. 956 01:02:45.000 --> 01:02:46.800 But most of the time I just leave it right at the top and 957 01:02:46.840 --> 01:02:51.320 then just buy it. Really well, it's a good idea, Yeah, 958 01:02:52.440 --> 01:02:54.599 but yeah, I mean, you know, I set up I've never set 959 01:02:54.679 --> 01:02:59.760 up my hex beam in Galveston, but I set up other antennas there now 960 01:03:00.199 --> 01:03:01.960 on the beach. We never set it up on the beach. I never 961 01:03:02.119 --> 01:03:06.440 have. We should do that. We're talking about doing Winter Field Day in 962 01:03:06.480 --> 01:03:12.800 Galveston in January. So if anyone's interested in coming to Texas, I'm talking 963 01:03:12.920 --> 01:03:15.159 to I'm talking to the people in Zoom right now. I don't need four 964 01:03:17.800 --> 01:03:22.679 anyone in Zoom right now. We do have a limited we do have a 965 01:03:22.760 --> 01:03:29.559 limited space. However, well, well that's why we invite Frank. He 966 01:03:29.679 --> 01:03:31.280 does all the cookie. So you know what I want to do on the 967 01:03:31.320 --> 01:03:38.039 beach boxing that's a great you know, people say set, people say, 968 01:03:38.119 --> 01:03:42.079 oh, I'm six hundred eight hundred one thousand feet above sea level. I'm 969 01:03:42.119 --> 01:03:45.920 like, that's great. You put in antenna at sea level zero feet and 970 01:03:46.039 --> 01:03:51.599 you can work the world. Man, it really doesn't matter. The Australian 971 01:03:51.679 --> 01:03:58.840 guy, um Hayden, Simon Simon, that guy. Yeah, I was 972 01:03:58.960 --> 01:04:00.760 joking. I didn't think that Simon, not Simon, the the guy that's 973 01:04:00.760 --> 01:04:04.960 been around forever. Peter. It's always Peter Peter. Yeah, Peter Peter 974 01:04:05.079 --> 01:04:08.760 does those. And then he just did another one the other day that was 975 01:04:08.920 --> 01:04:12.199 actually easier to set up. He said, Um, I forget what it 976 01:04:12.360 --> 01:04:16.920 was. It's kind of a triangular one, I think, but but something 977 01:04:16.960 --> 01:04:20.159 like that on the beach would be really good directional and then stuff on the 978 01:04:20.239 --> 01:04:24.519 beach man, I mean, I have worked. I mean I went out 979 01:04:24.559 --> 01:04:30.559 to activate PODA in February with a vertical set, that seventeen foot vertical from 980 01:04:30.679 --> 01:04:35.400 Chameleon Antennas, and it was it's just a steel it's just a vertical driven 981 01:04:35.440 --> 01:04:39.440 in the ground, nothing special, one one hundred and fifty one max. 982 01:04:39.519 --> 01:04:42.480 I think I was using my ftd X ten no power. I thought, 983 01:04:42.519 --> 01:04:45.519 I'm gonna start on ten ten meters was open at the time. I'm gonna 984 01:04:45.559 --> 01:04:49.000 start on ten meters. I'll do a little bit there and uh and I'm 985 01:04:49.039 --> 01:04:54.159 just gonna And I was fifty feet from the ocean, sixty feet maybe from 986 01:04:54.199 --> 01:04:57.000 the ocean, and I said, I'm gonna start on ten meters and I'll 987 01:04:57.039 --> 01:04:59.920 just go to fifteen to twenty later because I won't get very many content und 988 01:05:00.119 --> 01:05:04.199 in fifty contacts later on ten meters, I had worked two golf zero stations 989 01:05:04.440 --> 01:05:10.079 that were at a park parked to park from Galveston, Texas on ten meters 990 01:05:10.280 --> 01:05:13.800 with a vertical to a to a British park, and I'm like, this 991 01:05:14.000 --> 01:05:15.760 is freaking cool. I just I'm gonna stay here for the next week. 992 01:05:16.039 --> 01:05:18.599 So yeah, it was. Yeah, ten meters was on fire that and 993 01:05:19.360 --> 01:05:24.199 that vertical antenna was awesome. So I mean in theory, you're like, 994 01:05:24.280 --> 01:05:26.519 well, if you're up in the mountain, you'll make more contacts. Yeah, 995 01:05:26.719 --> 01:05:30.559 maybe, but at sea level works, man, it's you know, 996 01:05:30.719 --> 01:05:34.039 it's great. Uh, coastal waves. He's always yeah, he walks out 997 01:05:34.079 --> 01:05:39.920 his back door, well front door probably, He's always planting a vertical right 998 01:05:39.960 --> 01:05:44.840 there in the sand sitting. I did that. I did that. I 999 01:05:44.960 --> 01:05:48.119 did in Hawaii with the same antenna and I had my radios were like washing 1000 01:05:48.239 --> 01:05:51.840 up on it was on the beach.

When my truck broke down in just south of Mesa, 1032 01:08:13.840 --> 01:08:16.479 freaking Arizona last summer, and we got out of the parking lot in front 1033 01:08:16.520 --> 01:08:21.560 of that grocery store and the black top parking lot was liquid. Like he 1034 01:08:21.640 --> 01:08:26.520 stepped out of the truck and it was like, I'm like, it's like 1035 01:08:26.600 --> 01:08:28.880 one hundred and thirty degrees out here on this black top. I'm like, 1036 01:08:30.279 --> 01:08:31.199 I'm like, Charlie, I don't know how you do it, buddy. 1037 01:08:32.039 --> 01:08:35.600 It's like I thought it was hot in Texas. Well.

Sorry, come back for the next happy hour. 1057 01:09:47.439 --> 01:09:53.439 But it sounds awesome. It is not horrible. It is not. It's 1058 01:09:53.479 --> 01:10:00.199 not It sounds like a Benjie burger from Culverts. Yeah. Yeah, anything 1059 01:10:00.199 --> 01:10:06.039 about an impossible burger. Impossible. That was the biggest fail ever there was. 1060 01:10:08.039 --> 01:10:12.039 My My wife one time ordered a black bean burger because she likes black 1061 01:10:12.079 --> 01:10:15.199 bean burgers with bacon, and they looked at her and they're like, you 1062 01:10:15.279 --> 01:10:18.079 know, bacon's not vegan. And she's like, I'm not a vegan. 1063 01:10:18.640 --> 01:10:23.520 I just like black bean burgers and I like bacon. I'm like, there's 1064 01:10:23.520 --> 01:10:26.359 nothing wrong with that. In my book, I thought that was funny. 1065 01:10:27.079 --> 01:10:30.039 I was sent to pick up I was sent to pick up burgers one day 1066 01:10:30.479 --> 01:10:33.920 and the old lady likes burger king and I said, what do you want? 1067 01:10:34.000 --> 01:10:38.479 She said, give me a whopper or something. Okay, So I 1068 01:10:38.640 --> 01:10:42.159 go down there and not and they have impossible whopper And I thought that meant 1069 01:10:42.319 --> 01:10:47.520 giant ass whopper. I thought that was like impossible to make. That is 1070 01:10:47.800 --> 01:10:53.399 not what that means? What does it? I don't know what does it 1071 01:10:53.520 --> 01:10:57.680 mean. I don't know. It's not me it's vegan. It's impossible to 1072 01:10:57.760 --> 01:11:05.239 believe that it's not meat. Hole think it's meat. Yeah, exactly what 1073 01:11:05.359 --> 01:11:12.399 they think is hemoglobin from soybeans. Ouch. We get what appears to taste 1074 01:11:12.479 --> 01:11:15.439 like blood from soybeans, and then we're gonna market it as burgers. That's 1075 01:11:15.479 --> 01:11:19.279 what they think its. She she didn't even taste it. She's like, 1076 01:11:19.600 --> 01:11:24.159 this is not a hamburger. Yeah, no, it's not. She said 1077 01:11:24.199 --> 01:11:29.640 some other words too, but we won't repeat all though. Yeah, Oh 1078 01:11:29.840 --> 01:11:34.560 my god, I was on I I was on a trip home from somewhere. 1079 01:11:35.359 --> 01:11:38.359 I was on a trip home and I was driving down the road I 1080 01:11:38.479 --> 01:11:42.079 was coming home, and uh, I stopped at a truck stop to Phillip 1081 01:11:42.159 --> 01:11:45.119 gas and I was really hungry, and the truck stop had a fricking burger. 1082 01:11:45.159 --> 01:11:47.359 I don't have burger king in years.

It didn't taste burnt, but it takes his like 1085 01:12:00.439 --> 01:12:05.479 over over overdone chicken because we cooked it like three hours ago. But well, 1086 01:12:05.960 --> 01:12:10.960 and it was like it was like soggy, soggy breading on the outside, 1087 01:12:11.239 --> 01:12:15.039 fried bretty on the outside.

Okay, could have made it, you know, pull it out 1143 01:16:28.800 --> 01:16:34.279 or something. The one is the rudder just keeps the flapping in the breeze 1144 01:16:34.319 --> 01:16:38.239 and then when you land you don't realize happening. And then you go to 1145 01:16:38.279 --> 01:16:46.479 the bathroom and you can't touch him because it's that Oh my god. One 1146 01:16:46.600 --> 01:16:55.960 procedural question.

We're trying to upgrade them from Crystal sets that they're using right now. 1186 01:20:05.119 --> 01:20:10.600 We're working Adam. Adam is the guy to do that for him for 1187 01:20:10.680 --> 01:20:15.640 sure, right all right, Crystal, thanks Josh, thanks for joining you 1188 01:20:15.680 --> 01:20:20.880 guys. Cool. Okay, So our setup at field day was as follows. 1189 01:20:21.399 --> 01:20:26.239 Is that back there, This is the buddy hecks right there in the 1190 01:20:26.279 --> 01:20:30.079 middle, and if you can see over here, it's kind of behind the 1191 01:20:30.119 --> 01:20:32.359 tree, but that's the d X commander behind the tree right there. And 1192 01:20:32.479 --> 01:20:35.319 that was pretty much all we had. We had the buddy hecks. You 1193 01:20:35.359 --> 01:20:40.439 didn't need anymore. No, we really didn't need anymore. We had every 1194 01:20:40.479 --> 01:20:44.359 bag because it was it was well, yeah, and the and the and 1195 01:20:44.479 --> 01:20:47.840 the and the the DX commander will go it'll go to eighty. But Mike 1196 01:20:47.880 --> 01:20:50.920 didn't. I don't think Mike had his eighty radio up, but he had 1197 01:20:51.000 --> 01:20:56.680 forty twenty, fifteen, ten and six. Well, no, he didn't 1198 01:20:56.720 --> 01:21:00.560 have six, but we could tune six. Yeah, okay, So and 1199 01:21:00.680 --> 01:21:02.720 again we tried six a few times. There's nothing out there. And then 1200 01:21:02.880 --> 01:21:08.000 I skipped the twelve and seventeen Miller elements on the buddy hacks and I just 1201 01:21:08.119 --> 01:21:12.199 put up six, ten, fifteen, and twenty, and so we had 1202 01:21:12.680 --> 01:21:15.600 And again Frank and I were running two radios through the triplex or on that 1203 01:21:15.680 --> 01:21:20.000 antenna. I meant to bring my K three and I was going to put 1204 01:21:20.039 --> 01:21:24.600 that, but put the K three on ten meters and see if there's any 1205 01:21:25.039 --> 01:21:29.640 any activity out there. Turns out it wasn't missed because ten meters was dead 1206 01:21:29.680 --> 01:21:32.520 anyway. I was really hoping ten and six would be something on ten and 1207 01:21:32.600 --> 01:21:36.079 six this weekend, but there wasn't. So so but it but it was 1208 01:21:36.159 --> 01:21:42.119 fun. We had We had two Yazu FTDX tens. Miket is IC seventy 1209 01:21:42.159 --> 01:21:46.560 three hundred and is a DX commander and Frank and I run our FTDX tens 1210 01:21:46.640 --> 01:21:48.920 on the buddy hacks and that that was all we needed. We were three 1211 01:21:48.920 --> 01:21:53.960 Alpha North Texas. This was a big achievement for me. I actually brung 1212 01:21:54.079 --> 01:21:58.720 my own radio and ran a station. I wasn't a move on. I 1213 01:21:58.960 --> 01:22:02.560 know this was he doesn't have one. He has one that a that a 1214 01:22:02.600 --> 01:22:13.399 subscriber bought for same Yeah, shame, shame, shame, but no seriously, 1215 01:22:13.479 --> 01:22:18.800 so contacts Jason Radio. We made somewhere around two hundred and fifty sideband 1216 01:22:19.279 --> 01:22:26.479 two hundred and sixty sideband I think um FT eight. We had two different 1217 01:22:26.520 --> 01:22:30.319 stations running FT eight. Mike sent me as law earlier actually, so I'm 1218 01:22:30.399 --> 01:22:36.560 guessing by the end there was another another two to three hundred fifty or sixty 1219 01:22:36.600 --> 01:22:41.800 on FT eight for fifteen meters I got. I got ninety two on twenty 1220 01:22:41.840 --> 01:22:45.279 meters, but I wasn't going the whole time. I'd do it while I 1221 01:22:45.399 --> 01:22:47.600 was here and other stuff. We shut down about nine thirty or ten this 1222 01:22:47.720 --> 01:22:50.800 morning, a good three hours before it ended. We just decided to close 1223 01:22:50.880 --> 01:22:54.720 down and pack up and go ahead. It was that's what It was. 1224 01:22:54.760 --> 01:22:59.079 Still cooler outside, yeah, not for it before it got terribly hot. 1225 01:22:59.319 --> 01:23:01.800 Yeah, it's pretty hot when you're when you're tearing stuff down and carrying stuff 1226 01:23:01.960 --> 01:23:06.000 heavy in your truck. It's still hot. Yeah. So but m Carlos 1227 01:23:06.039 --> 01:23:09.520 went to get a whiskey. That's why he's blurred right now. Nice. 1228 01:23:10.119 --> 01:23:15.319 So I feel you, buddy, But yeah, I just have them all 1229 01:23:15.479 --> 01:23:17.840 at the desk. I don't know where he's going. Well, he probably 1230 01:23:17.920 --> 01:23:29.680 has his what's it's eight and it's still ninety six. I mean, it's 1231 01:23:29.720 --> 01:23:36.279 like in the eighties here.

Seriously, I'm being I'm totally 1323 01:30:26.279 --> 01:30:29.479 serious right now. Okay, you know what, I don't need you to 1324 01:30:29.600 --> 01:30:32.720 agree with everything I say. I don't need you to agree with the way 1325 01:30:32.760 --> 01:30:35.600 I do stuff. I don't need that. I really don't. But if 1326 01:30:35.640 --> 01:30:41.760 you badmouth other people trying to promote him Radio, go back to QRZ and 1327 01:30:41.800 --> 01:30:44.279 shut the hell up. I mean, seriously, that's that's that's what I 1328 01:30:44.359 --> 01:30:46.399 think. I mean, you know what you can do you you do your 1329 01:30:46.520 --> 01:30:50.279 channel the way you want to. I do not care, really, But 1330 01:30:50.399 --> 01:30:56.880 the people who I have had personally misses me talking right now, the people 1331 01:30:57.000 --> 01:30:59.880 I have had on my zoom calls, on my live streams, on my 1332 01:31:00.439 --> 01:31:03.479 ham Radio happy hours, these are the people who I think promote Ham Radio 1333 01:31:03.560 --> 01:31:09.199 in the right way that welcome outsiders, welcome other people, and welcome newcomers 1334 01:31:09.279 --> 01:31:15.520 to the chat, to the hobby and the some of the people, some 1335 01:31:15.960 --> 01:31:18.439 of the people who you've never seen on this channel before have been invited and 1336 01:31:18.520 --> 01:31:20.920 never showed up, and that's okay, that's all right. Some of the 1337 01:31:21.000 --> 01:31:27.239 people have intentionally not been invited onto this channel before. So if you've ever 1338 01:31:27.359 --> 01:31:31.039 seen anybody on this channel, I support everyone who has been on this channel 1339 01:31:31.039 --> 01:31:33.880 one hundred percent, and they will promote the hobby the way it should be 1340 01:31:33.960 --> 01:31:38.239 promoted. Different ways, and that's okay, it's all right. Everybody's got 1341 01:31:38.279 --> 01:31:41.840 their different style. Nothing wrong with that. But yeah, yeah, if 1342 01:31:42.000 --> 01:31:44.960 if all you want to do is bad mouth other people and disagree and block 1343 01:31:45.000 --> 01:31:47.159 people who disagree with you, then you know, seriously, moved to North 1344 01:31:47.239 --> 01:31:53.720 Korea and shut shut up.

So we have we have spent living in the 1461 01:41:33.479 --> 01:41:39.640 three months now right, We have spent New Year's even day in Galveston for 1462 01:41:39.680 --> 01:41:43.840 the last two maybe three years. It would not be out of the question 1463 01:41:44.399 --> 01:41:47.319 to just stay there all through January. So perhaps off that next year. 1464 01:41:48.039 --> 01:41:53.680 So you guys come down. It's not it's it's it's warmer down there than 1465 01:41:53.760 --> 01:41:56.880 it is up here. It's about five hours south of where I am right 1466 01:41:56.960 --> 01:41:59.920 where I'm sitting right now. It's in the sixties here right, man, 1467 01:42:00.840 --> 01:42:04.000 it's chili. It's usually in the sixties in January in Galveston, that's usually 1468 01:42:04.119 --> 01:42:08.960 sixty seventies somewhere in there. Yeah, better than minus thirty five. I've 1469 01:42:09.039 --> 01:42:13.279 done that. So yeah, Texas doesn't do that. Texas would like literally 1470 01:42:13.359 --> 01:42:15.319 break off and fall into the ocean if it ever got to thirty minus. 1471 01:42:15.319 --> 01:42:20.159 Saw that two years ago. So yeah, it wasn't that freaking cold. 1472 01:42:20.359 --> 01:42:24.399 It was like fourteen, and we lost our minds at fourteen degrees. We're 1473 01:42:24.439 --> 01:42:30.760 not doing not negative thirty five fourteen the yeah, yeah, yeah, goes. 1474 01:42:30.920 --> 01:42:39.720 Hey you got some more cheese? Okay, yeah, is that beer 1475 01:42:39.760 --> 01:42:42.920 cold? Come on down, Carlos. We got room for you, buddy. 1476 01:42:42.960 --> 01:42:45.439 It's eighteen hours something. I'm guessing I'll do it, and you know, 1477 01:42:45.560 --> 01:42:46.720 I'll do it in two maybe three days. That way I can stub 1478 01:42:46.840 --> 01:42:49.560 it parks on the way and do parks in the air, fly southwest or 1479 01:42:49.920 --> 01:42:54.680 do do do eight hours a day, No, do six hours a day 1480 01:42:55.159 --> 01:42:58.680 and stop at a park each night just to activate the park. That's how 1481 01:42:58.720 --> 01:43:01.479 I did Courtsfest. It was fine, it was fine, I could. 1482 01:43:01.560 --> 01:43:04.880 I could fly south with the problem was flying southwest is but then I don't 1483 01:43:04.880 --> 01:43:09.680 have a place to stay if I drive my list. I have a place. 1484 01:43:09.760 --> 01:43:13.359 I mean, we could probably throw a tent on the beach. We've 1485 01:43:13.479 --> 01:43:18.720 got I mean, we've got because I'll probably fly south. We've got beds. 1486 01:43:21.039 --> 01:43:26.600 No, I don't pay anything, it's free. Yeah, we've got 1487 01:43:26.720 --> 01:43:29.319 seven beds in the house, but we've got more room and whatnot. We'll 1488 01:43:29.319 --> 01:43:31.399 figure it out. We'll put a tent in the backyard. So yeah, 1489 01:43:32.520 --> 01:43:35.239 so I might. I might bringing the truck and park on the beach. 1490 01:43:36.479 --> 01:43:43.960 That's that's totally fine too. On the beach, I can show there's a 1491 01:43:44.239 --> 01:43:46.760 there's a place there where where Mike and I, Mike and Frank and I 1492 01:43:46.920 --> 01:43:51.640 go right on the edge of Galveston Island, the state park, there's a 1493 01:43:51.720 --> 01:43:55.960 place that's a that's a parking section. You could drive down the beach and 1494 01:43:56.039 --> 01:43:59.479 then you walk across the fence and you're in the state park. So can 1495 01:43:59.560 --> 01:44:02.560 you take your coax and absolutely, I've done that many times. Yeah. 1496 01:44:02.880 --> 01:44:05.600 Yeah. You just back your your back your truck up to the fence, 1497 01:44:06.000 --> 01:44:09.560 you take your antenna and you set it one foot on the other side of 1498 01:44:09.600 --> 01:44:12.600 the fence and run your quacks to it and you're done. You're just transmitting 1499 01:44:12.640 --> 01:44:16.079 from the state park. Buddy. Absolutely, absolutely, And yeah it's a 1500 01:44:16.119 --> 01:44:19.760 little bit windy, but all I'm gonna worry is to sea breeze. It's 1501 01:44:19.800 --> 01:44:25.239 not already. Hey, if you guys camp on the beach, I'm coming 1502 01:44:25.279 --> 01:44:28.560 down there and staying with you guys. I'm gonna if I'm gonna come down 1503 01:44:28.640 --> 01:44:30.079 to the truck, I'm staying on the beach. I am, I am, 1504 01:44:30.239 --> 01:44:32.439 I am bringing my gazelle tent. I'm gonna put it up on the 1505 01:44:32.479 --> 01:44:35.239 beach myself. So yeah, I'm staying down there just because I can so 1506 01:44:35.920 --> 01:44:40.000 so. Jody Vassar says, Shane, when the tide comes in, your 1507 01:44:40.039 --> 01:44:43.920 tent on the truck roof will still be dry. Likely, yes, absolutely, 1508 01:44:44.279 --> 01:44:46.760 because I won't be anywhere near where high tides hat. I don't know. 1509 01:44:46.880 --> 01:44:50.680 High tide moves up and down really quickly out there. I could park 1510 01:44:51.039 --> 01:44:57.000 parking lot. I have fifty coax. Oh yeah, I could get I 1511 01:44:57.039 --> 01:45:03.319 could get one hundred foot running from Bloney Yeah. Anyhow, right. Digital 1512 01:45:03.439 --> 01:45:08.560 Dreamer says, maybe Carlos could skydive all the way there. Yeah, that 1513 01:45:08.640 --> 01:45:14.720 would be very difficult. Squirrels, the loft would have to be scream. 1514 01:45:15.399 --> 01:45:18.960 Just go up and jump off of the I SS It's easy. H Let's 1515 01:45:18.960 --> 01:45:24.680 just make sure you tuck for aeronautical purpose. There you go. Yeah, 1516 01:45:24.800 --> 01:45:30.920 yeah, let's drag that way right right right right right right. You're wearing 1517 01:45:31.439 --> 01:45:36.000 let's I mean, but it's still dragged. Jason, are we doing last 1518 01:45:36.159 --> 01:45:41.920 night? What are we doing last round? Yeah? Let's do last rounds? 1519 01:45:42.000 --> 01:45:45.319 Okay, So everyone tell me what's coming up in your channel?

Oh my god, are you gonna actually put a video about that? 1527 01:46:15.960 --> 01:46:20.840 I got lots of great footage for that. How to how to legitimately 1528 01:46:20.960 --> 01:46:27.199 have us have a reason to commit suicide by building this antenna? Shane did 1529 01:46:27.239 --> 01:46:32.000 it wrong? Right? I'm gonna link there is no right to that antenna. 1530 01:46:33.279 --> 01:46:39.840 Okay, thanks Shane, Carlos, what's up? Video jump number three 1531 01:46:40.039 --> 01:46:45.000 at him mention, I'm blaming him putting him live tomorrow? Nice.

Yeah, 1534 01:46:55.039 --> 01:46:58.600 well you know, well that's for you people that make videos like ten videos 1535 01:46:58.600 --> 01:47:01.840 a day. I I I think like one video a week, once a 1536 01:47:01.960 --> 01:47:08.119 video. One video a week is plenty you could do too, but one 1537 01:47:08.199 --> 01:47:10.880 video. If you're doing one a week, you are golden. Seriously. 1538 01:47:11.600 --> 01:47:15.479 So you're going to Huntsville Carlos, Oh hell yeah, yea. And not 1539 01:47:15.560 --> 01:47:21.680 only that, I'm jumping at the Huntsville, not at the hunt has itself 1540 01:47:21.680 --> 01:47:26.560 all be forty miles away.

More tiger tails? No, there are 1549 01:48:08.680 --> 01:48:18.319 no more? You shut up? You You just doing some messing around with 1550 01:48:18.560 --> 01:48:23.760 with HD antennas. There's such a wide range of these things, and some 1551 01:48:24.359 --> 01:48:30.520 work better than others and some are just sad. Cool. Thanks Jim, 1552 01:48:30.279 --> 01:48:34.000 Chuck. What's going on? Um? I just dropped the video for tomorrow 1553 01:48:34.079 --> 01:48:39.319 morning on my three element moxin. Then I'm gonna build and it's it's gonna 1554 01:48:39.319 --> 01:48:42.720 be a two part thing because I actually went through all the steps of how 1555 01:48:42.760 --> 01:48:46.039 to make it this time more good, showing people how I how I do 1556 01:48:46.159 --> 01:48:48.039 it. I mean, if people want to do a different way, that's 1557 01:48:48.039 --> 01:48:51.520 fine. I don't care, um, but I did ask him to be 1558 01:48:51.520 --> 01:48:55.399 like, put in the comments if you have a better way or a different 1559 01:48:55.439 --> 01:48:58.880 way or whatever. You know. I got some kiweet stuff. I'm gonna 1560 01:48:59.479 --> 01:49:03.920 do a view on and post that up. I don't Radio's channel, Yeah, 1561 01:49:04.039 --> 01:49:06.600 I don't. I gotta find out what we're actually doing on that, 1562 01:49:06.680 --> 01:49:11.520 because maybe we can pull nice things. Maybe we can bring you on to 1563 01:49:11.640 --> 01:49:15.319 a live stream one of these days and talk about the theory behind moxin's that'd 1564 01:49:15.359 --> 01:49:18.359 be a good show. I don't know if I know any theory, but 1565 01:49:18.560 --> 01:49:23.159 yeah, sure you got plenty. Look at up. How did you how? 1566 01:49:23.399 --> 01:49:26.199 How how you build it? How do you build one? What you 1567 01:49:26.279 --> 01:49:30.079 look for? How you have? Why does it work combined? They? 1568 01:49:30.720 --> 01:49:32.439 I actually I think they're a little I think they're just a hair better, 1569 01:49:32.640 --> 01:49:35.439 not not a lot. I mean, probably couldn't tell than than a x 1570 01:49:35.520 --> 01:49:39.439 beam only because I think it's more straight, you know, more like a 1571 01:49:39.520 --> 01:49:45.680 Gregory aggy. They're actually within but they're single band correct, Well, they 1572 01:49:45.720 --> 01:49:47.600 can be multiple band too, can they? Okay, yeah, it's it's 1573 01:49:47.640 --> 01:49:51.279 a little hard. That's that's what the x beam does easier. Is it's 1574 01:49:51.359 --> 01:49:54.920 easier to do multiple bands with the x beam, but you can do it 1575 01:49:54.960 --> 01:49:57.920 with it with a box. And also I found a really good site. 1576 01:49:58.079 --> 01:50:02.079 There's a it's yeah, spider Beam makes one later Kyle four elements, but 1577 01:50:02.319 --> 01:50:08.319 supposedly my three element is better than the spider Beam four element on on ten. 1578 01:50:09.319 --> 01:50:13.079 But let's uh, let's schedule something in a couple of weeks on a 1579 01:50:13.159 --> 01:50:15.439 Sunday, Chuck, I'd love to get you on a live stream and just 1580 01:50:15.520 --> 01:50:18.720 talk about mosins for an hour. Sure, because I am I know what 1581 01:50:18.800 --> 01:50:23.359 a moxin is. I know basically how it's designed, but I don't know 1582 01:50:23.520 --> 01:50:26.239 any details about it. So I it could be a good good for the 1583 01:50:26.279 --> 01:50:30.000 audis beam right, Well, but nobody watched his clubhouse. We'll come on 1584 01:50:30.079 --> 01:50:35.199 to my channel and do some stuff. So I only I only said that 1585 01:50:35.279 --> 01:50:40.640 because Shane's here. No, I'm kidding, yeah, fighting back, Hum 1586 01:50:40.760 --> 01:50:45.880 well, Iso, I like, so ya, thanks brother, you're you 1587 01:50:48.359 --> 01:50:51.159 guys are both cigar brothers.

Yeah, I'll 1589 01:50:55.319 --> 01:50:58.439 email you about some stuff, all right, Charlie, what's coming up on 1590 01:50:58.520 --> 01:51:00.600 your channel? See, I got a couple of things in post that I 1591 01:51:00.640 --> 01:51:08.000 should really sue.

And then also, uh, does the GS five be radiotity radio? 1594 01:51:20.680 --> 01:51:24.920 Is it good for soda? It'd be surprised with the answer. And 1595 01:51:25.119 --> 01:51:30.359 then I am going to four corners Masa Verde Monument Valley for a tour and 1596 01:51:30.479 --> 01:51:32.760 doing soda on those and parks on the air on lalls, and then I'm 1597 01:51:33.119 --> 01:51:35.680 after that a week later, I'm going to Nashville.

Uh, it's it's a good it's a good stretch. 1603 01:51:53.840 --> 01:51:57.439 Probably sixteen hours. I had had one of my two of my co 1604 01:51:57.600 --> 01:52:03.000 workers win and because of all the two snow melt that they had this year, 1605 01:52:03.680 --> 01:52:11.000 that Yosemite looks absolutely fantastic. I can't I'd love it. I've actually 1606 01:52:11.119 --> 01:52:15.640 considered flying out to Fresno just to go out and do a soda up in 1607 01:52:15.760 --> 01:52:19.039 Yosemite somewhere. It's beautiful up there. We did that, We didn't we 1608 01:52:19.039 --> 01:52:21.760 do that? Like that was two years ago? Yeah, we went up 1609 01:52:21.760 --> 01:52:25.880 there two years ago. He was there two years ago. So I didn't 1610 01:52:26.239 --> 01:52:32.840 Well, that's wet. I wasn't around Frank was there.
