I don't 36 00:02:14.080 --> 00:02:17.319 know why, but the top tier, the most expensive one, 37 00:02:17.360 --> 00:02:19.280 has been the most popular one, and I thought that 38 00:02:19.319 --> 00:02:21.159 would be flipped the other way around. I thought the 39 00:02:21.159 --> 00:02:23.439 forty dollars one would be the most popular. I sold 40 00:02:23.439 --> 00:02:25.240 a few of these and a few of these. The 41 00:02:25.280 --> 00:02:27.560 Morning in the Middle is probably the least popular, but 42 00:02:28.479 --> 00:02:30.280 those are still going strong. Still got a lot of 43 00:02:30.319 --> 00:02:32.719 stuff going in there, and a couple of the vendors 44 00:02:32.719 --> 00:02:34.159 that we have on tonight, I might try to hit 45 00:02:34.159 --> 00:02:38.199 them up for some wholesale prices hintint, And you never 46 00:02:38.199 --> 00:02:40.280 know what you're gonna get in a mystery box, so 47 00:02:40.719 --> 00:02:44.319 appreciate the support on the channel for those guys.

Obviously, 188 00:09:46.480 --> 00:09:48.279 if you just want to use it as a truck node, 189 00:09:48.639 --> 00:09:51.000 it's a little difficult when you start trying to chat 190 00:09:51.120 --> 00:09:56.000 or do anything on it with the little abd uh 191 00:09:56.600 --> 00:09:57.759 keyboard that pops up. 192 00:09:58.720 --> 00:10:00.679 Can you connect to it via blue tooth like a 193 00:10:00.679 --> 00:10:01.440 regular node? 194 00:10:01.679 --> 00:10:04.600 You can if it's got the original firmware, you cannot. 195 00:10:04.679 --> 00:10:07.519 If it's got the fancy u I right now. 196 00:10:07.679 --> 00:10:10.159 Yeah, okay, the m u I takes up that one 197 00:10:10.279 --> 00:10:13.360 API slot and so they you can connect to it, 198 00:10:13.399 --> 00:10:15.240 but they'll fight with each other. I think there's actually 199 00:10:15.279 --> 00:10:17.600 a way, like you long press something in the firm 200 00:10:17.600 --> 00:10:20.279 where and it'll turn off the m U I and 201 00:10:20.320 --> 00:10:21.759 then you can bluetooth. 202 00:10:21.279 --> 00:10:24.559 To it if you press the bluetooth button. 203 00:10:25.120 --> 00:10:27.120 Yeah, I think if if you go to like the 204 00:10:27.159 --> 00:10:29.960 bottom right, the bottom left, corner, and then there's a 205 00:10:30.000 --> 00:10:33.840 tab called settings. I think that over there there is 206 00:10:33.919 --> 00:10:36.960 a I think that's how you get to the Bluetooth 207 00:10:36.960 --> 00:10:38.960 settings or connect to it through Bluetooth. 208 00:10:39.399 --> 00:10:40.919 Yeah, it's it's in the settings. 209 00:10:41.360 --> 00:10:46.240 Yeah, okay, cool good, cool man.

I sell 396 00:19:46.720 --> 00:19:50.759 different kits that are useful for the PoTA Soda operators, 397 00:19:50.759 --> 00:19:54.799 specifically like the c W operators. I also make a 398 00:19:55.000 --> 00:19:58.839 radio called the CFT one, which my camera is. 399 00:19:59.599 --> 00:20:00.720 Yeah, CFT one. 400 00:20:00.759 --> 00:20:04.240 It's a five band c W field transceiver with a 401 00:20:04.319 --> 00:20:09.759 really simple user interface and a very low noise receiver 402 00:20:09.960 --> 00:20:13.079 and I could go all day talking different points about it, 403 00:20:13.079 --> 00:20:19.440 which I won't. I also sell and fed halfwave kits. 404 00:20:19.720 --> 00:20:22.839 That was the first thing I sold in Kadi m 405 00:20:23.000 --> 00:20:26.359 R D and Mike knows knows very well about it. 406 00:20:27.279 --> 00:20:31.119 My camera is blocking it, but it's very similar to 407 00:20:31.160 --> 00:20:33.559 the K six r K ones that's ultra portable but 408 00:20:33.599 --> 00:20:37.599 a little bit easier to assemble. I also do Morse 409 00:20:37.680 --> 00:20:40.880 code paddles. These are actually three D printable. If you 410 00:20:40.880 --> 00:20:43.240 go on Printables you can print them yourself if you want, 411 00:20:43.839 --> 00:20:46.240 but I also sell them as a kit. I've also 412 00:20:46.279 --> 00:20:49.160 got paddle kits for the k X two and KH one, 413 00:20:49.200 --> 00:20:51.519 and I also sell leg straps for them. 414 00:20:52.440 --> 00:20:54.400 Uh so that's what I've got. 415 00:20:54.440 --> 00:20:59.839 But I also was asked to advertise for Adam kase 416 00:21:00.079 --> 00:21:02.039 Z a R K R A N six A R 417 00:21:02.119 --> 00:21:06.240 A Joshua from toofton Antenna and five F Y, as 418 00:21:06.279 --> 00:21:11.240 well as Aaron from Modern Morris. They'll be right next 419 00:21:11.279 --> 00:21:15.160 to me at Booth five thousand and four, but Aaron 420 00:21:15.319 --> 00:21:18.720 will be let me see. He told me. It will 421 00:21:18.759 --> 00:21:21.240 be at boot one two zero six twelve O six. 422 00:21:22.720 --> 00:21:27.079 The map shows commotion which is his dad's electrical engineering company. 423 00:21:27.640 --> 00:21:31.000 He'll have some new color paddles, h but it'll be 424 00:21:31.079 --> 00:21:34.000 unlimited stock, first come, first serve that. So there's the 425 00:21:34.039 --> 00:21:38.240 message from Aaron and so I do hope you guys 426 00:21:38.440 --> 00:21:39.319 come and check us out. 427 00:21:40.359 --> 00:21:45.920 Awesome, that's a CFT one. Jonathan is a beast. That's 428 00:21:46.240 --> 00:21:48.839 the cw on. That thing is so smooth and the 429 00:21:48.920 --> 00:21:52.200 unit user interface is amazing. I mean you can literally 430 00:21:52.279 --> 00:21:55.440 sit down and just go to town on that. 431 00:21:55.440 --> 00:21:56.000 That radio. 432 00:21:57.039 --> 00:21:59.200 You just reminded me, Jonathan, I still have to get 433 00:21:59.240 --> 00:22:03.799 my review of your radio out. It's it's it's on 434 00:22:03.920 --> 00:22:06.640 my computer. I just remember that I have never put 435 00:22:06.640 --> 00:22:09.839 that out. So I've got some video editing to do 436 00:22:09.880 --> 00:22:10.480 in my future. 437 00:22:12.240 --> 00:22:14.440 Well, if Kyle says that it's a good cw rig, 438 00:22:14.480 --> 00:22:15.160 then you know it is. 439 00:22:16.319 --> 00:22:16.519 Yeah. 440 00:22:16.519 --> 00:22:17.200 I actually got. 441 00:22:17.160 --> 00:22:20.440 Used his I actually used his video to help troubleshoot 442 00:22:20.440 --> 00:22:24.000 the iambic A versus IAMBIC B because the explanation they 443 00:22:24.000 --> 00:22:26.000 give for that can be kind of confusing, and his 444 00:22:26.119 --> 00:22:28.960 explanation was very intuitive. 445 00:22:29.039 --> 00:22:30.599 So I use that to figure. 446 00:22:30.319 --> 00:22:33.240 Out that with Evan K two e j A t 447 00:22:33.440 --> 00:22:36.079 helped me get that, and that's the reason why it's 448 00:22:36.079 --> 00:22:38.000 so it's so robust. 449 00:22:38.319 --> 00:22:41.000 Yeah, that was Adam who gave that presentation. 450 00:22:41.079 --> 00:22:46.319 But yeah, my CW Operators roundtable, we uh decoded IAMIC 451 00:22:46.440 --> 00:22:49.599 A versus IAMIC B and there are some differences. You 452 00:22:49.839 --> 00:22:52.079 gotta watch the video to figure it out, but there 453 00:22:52.079 --> 00:22:54.000 are differences. 454 00:22:55.000 --> 00:22:57.839 I'm just I'm just still trying to figure out the 455 00:22:57.839 --> 00:22:59.319 difference between K and R right now. 456 00:23:00.119 --> 00:23:03.079 So that is probably your first good that's a first 457 00:23:03.119 --> 00:23:03.599 good step. 458 00:23:04.039 --> 00:23:07.519 Yeah, yeah, ving that my my my call son is 459 00:23:07.519 --> 00:23:11.359 not l C five hw B. But Kyle and I 460 00:23:11.400 --> 00:23:12.920 came up when a idea for a T shirt and 461 00:23:13.160 --> 00:23:18.359 it's gonna say you are h n N and it's 462 00:23:18.440 --> 00:23:21.119 just you are h n N and that's it's just 463 00:23:21.119 --> 00:23:24.000 gonna say that on the front and then and everyone 464 00:23:24.160 --> 00:23:26.319 has ever screwed up CW before. I should get that. 465 00:23:26.480 --> 00:23:29.920 So but yeah, if some of you were like, what 466 00:23:29.960 --> 00:23:31.440 does that mean, I don't know. 467 00:23:31.480 --> 00:23:35.200 Go take a look at take h right right right exactly. 468 00:23:36.000 --> 00:23:38.000 So cool man. Thanks for being on here, Jonathan. I 469 00:23:38.039 --> 00:23:40.000 look forward to meeting you. I'm pretty sure I met 470 00:23:40.000 --> 00:23:40.680 you last year. 471 00:23:40.960 --> 00:23:44.920 Yeah, I think we shook hands and yeah, and spoke briefly, 472 00:23:45.039 --> 00:23:47.519 probably at the at the pub boot Pub. 473 00:23:48.039 --> 00:23:49.720 Could be, but I was at Four Days in May. Also, 474 00:23:49.759 --> 00:23:50.680 were you there last year? 475 00:23:50.759 --> 00:23:51.119 Yeah? 476 00:23:51.200 --> 00:23:52.839 Yeah, yeah, it was my first year there. 477 00:23:53.160 --> 00:23:55.400 Okay, yeah, yeah, I'm sure that I met you there. 478 00:23:55.400 --> 00:23:57.440 And then yeah, we're we were at the troll Pub 479 00:23:57.519 --> 00:23:59.400 last year and we're gonna be at the troll Pub 480 00:23:59.440 --> 00:24:01.680 again this year. So stay tuned. We're gonna talk about 481 00:24:01.680 --> 00:24:04.599 that upcoming. But uh yeah, thanks for being here, man. 482 00:24:04.599 --> 00:24:06.559 I appreciate you guys coming on and presenting tonight. 483 00:24:07.559 --> 00:24:07.880 Thank you. 484 00:24:08.319 --> 00:24:12.720 Yeah, you bet all right. So we're just gonna roll 485 00:24:12.759 --> 00:24:16.079 in now to Meshtastic and I know that uh let's 486 00:24:16.079 --> 00:24:18.200 see how many people do we have one from? I 487 00:24:18.240 --> 00:24:20.359 know Garth and Jonathan and Austin. 488 00:24:20.720 --> 00:24:22.200 Yeah, I think he's just the three of us, just 489 00:24:22.279 --> 00:24:22.799 the three. 490 00:24:22.599 --> 00:24:25.720 Of you, okay. And uh and I know that Rob 491 00:24:25.799 --> 00:24:28.880 down there, uh w fi I t R Rob. He's 492 00:24:28.880 --> 00:24:34.920 done some videos about the new Hamvention firmware. So if 493 00:24:34.920 --> 00:24:39.039 you guys would give us a let us know what. Well, 494 00:24:39.039 --> 00:24:40.920 first of all, I believe the u r L is 495 00:24:40.960 --> 00:24:43.799 Hamvention dot meshtastic dot org. Is that correct? 496 00:24:43.880 --> 00:24:44.359 That's correct? 497 00:24:44.839 --> 00:24:46.640 Okay, Frank, if you want to type that up and 498 00:24:46.640 --> 00:24:48.400 put that in the chat. I did share that in 499 00:24:48.440 --> 00:24:50.559 my email blast today. So again hopefully you guys are 500 00:24:50.559 --> 00:24:53.599 part of my email list. But yeah, so tell us 501 00:24:53.640 --> 00:24:54.680 what to what what? 502 00:24:55.920 --> 00:24:57.519 I think it's probably I think it's probably more fun 503 00:24:57.519 --> 00:24:58.960 to talk about ham mention last year. 504 00:24:59.039 --> 00:25:01.279 And yes, I was gonna I was about to start there. 505 00:25:01.359 --> 00:25:03.240 I was about to start with that. Yes, yeah, so 506 00:25:03.319 --> 00:25:03.839 let's do that. 507 00:25:04.200 --> 00:25:07.480 Yeah, ham Bitchion twenty twenty four was where we realized 508 00:25:07.480 --> 00:25:10.799 we had a problem. We had a big problem. Meantastic 509 00:25:10.799 --> 00:25:12.240 hadn't been big enough for it to be a problem 510 00:25:12.319 --> 00:25:14.279 until then. That was the first time that enough people 511 00:25:14.319 --> 00:25:16.759 got together in the same place. And then what made 512 00:25:16.759 --> 00:25:19.839 that worse is that somebody went and flipped the MQTT 513 00:25:20.079 --> 00:25:22.680 stuff on and so not only was there the local 514 00:25:22.680 --> 00:25:25.599 traffic they were taking. We run an MQTT server where 515 00:25:25.599 --> 00:25:27.759 people can bounce off of that from anywhere around the world. 516 00:25:28.079 --> 00:25:30.799 Somebody was taking all of that traffic, sucking it into 517 00:25:30.839 --> 00:25:34.799 their node and then rebroadcasting it locally, and you know, 518 00:25:34.960 --> 00:25:38.400 everybody's radios virtually melted down as a result. 519 00:25:38.480 --> 00:25:41.160 It was It was chaos, Yes, it was. 520 00:25:41.960 --> 00:25:43.720 And so that's when we first really started looking at 521 00:25:43.759 --> 00:25:45.960 it and going, Okay, we have enough people in the 522 00:25:46.000 --> 00:25:49.480 same building now at some of these events. Ham Vinchion 523 00:25:49.559 --> 00:25:51.680 is one of the big ones. Defcon is another one. 524 00:25:51.720 --> 00:25:54.160 Since then we had a bunch of nodes of deaf coon, 525 00:25:54.400 --> 00:25:57.000 so we started asking ourselves what can we do to 526 00:25:57.079 --> 00:26:00.240 fix this? And what came out of this was as 527 00:26:00.400 --> 00:26:04.079 the convention firmware, and so we put everybody on a 528 00:26:04.240 --> 00:26:09.759 faster speed of you know, more bandwidth, less airtime, different channel, 529 00:26:09.839 --> 00:26:12.720 so that we're not competing with the defaults. And then 530 00:26:12.920 --> 00:26:16.720 we go and we do some things like let's send 531 00:26:16.799 --> 00:26:20.240 less telemontry, let's send telemetry less often. Let's basically all 532 00:26:20.279 --> 00:26:22.440 the things that the firmware does by default that makes 533 00:26:22.440 --> 00:26:24.920 sense when there's up to one hundred people. A lot 534 00:26:24.960 --> 00:26:26.759 of that doesn't make sense when you've got a thousand 535 00:26:26.759 --> 00:26:29.759 people together or more than that, and so there's a 536 00:26:29.799 --> 00:26:30.960 lot of those things that are in there that are 537 00:26:30.960 --> 00:26:32.440 cut down. One of the other big things that we 538 00:26:32.480 --> 00:26:35.519 did is, since him mentioned last year, is on the 539 00:26:35.640 --> 00:26:39.359 m QTT server, we actually zero hop all of that traffic, 540 00:26:39.799 --> 00:26:41.720 which means that even if you go in and do 541 00:26:41.799 --> 00:26:43.759 the same thing that the guy did last year, say 542 00:26:43.839 --> 00:26:45.880 I'm going to download all of this, your local node's 543 00:26:45.960 --> 00:26:48.480 not going to rebroadcast it, so you only melt your 544 00:26:48.559 --> 00:26:49.880 local node and. 545 00:26:49.799 --> 00:26:50.799 Not anybody else. 546 00:26:51.119 --> 00:26:53.160 I'm gonna let Garth and Austin get in on this too, 547 00:26:53.160 --> 00:26:55.000 because they spent they've done a lot of the legwork 548 00:26:55.039 --> 00:26:57.359 on thinking this through and making the making the builds work, 549 00:26:57.359 --> 00:26:59.240 particularly as what Austin's been had his hand in. 550 00:26:59.720 --> 00:27:03.599 Yeah, it's been a lot of fun. I'm Austin. I 551 00:27:03.640 --> 00:27:06.599 do all of the Linux packaging and I've been having 552 00:27:06.599 --> 00:27:08.680 a lot of fun getting into the build process also. 553 00:27:10.599 --> 00:27:13.440 Were you you automated the uh the building of the 554 00:27:13.839 --> 00:27:17.079 special convention firmware too, right, It's not just the Linux stuff. 555 00:27:17.079 --> 00:27:20.240 Right right, I've been getting more into that stuff. Lots 556 00:27:20.240 --> 00:27:20.519 of fun. 557 00:27:22.400 --> 00:27:25.160 Now is this is this? Is this specific firmware? 558 00:27:25.279 --> 00:27:25.599 Is it? Well? 559 00:27:25.640 --> 00:27:28.480 I've got two questions about it. Yeah, you guys had 560 00:27:28.519 --> 00:27:32.000 some hand in the settings. We didn't have specific firmware, 561 00:27:32.039 --> 00:27:34.400 but we had a specific settings we used at ham 562 00:27:34.480 --> 00:27:38.640 Cation in Orlando last February, and we went through and 563 00:27:38.680 --> 00:27:40.640 just kind of changed like three or four settings in 564 00:27:40.799 --> 00:27:42.880 just kind of the default firm where and it worked 565 00:27:42.880 --> 00:27:46.480 beautifully that time. So I guess that this is is 566 00:27:46.559 --> 00:27:48.880 changing the number of hops and changing it from long 567 00:27:48.920 --> 00:27:51.079 fast to short fast and changing like one other thing 568 00:27:51.079 --> 00:27:53.480 and turning off m QTT if it's on, obviously, but 569 00:27:53.519 --> 00:27:55.519 there was one other change in there as well. Is 570 00:27:55.519 --> 00:27:58.000 that kind of what the convention firmware is doing for 571 00:27:58.039 --> 00:27:59.880 you automatically, right. 572 00:27:59.720 --> 00:28:02.400 So it doing all of those things. We also added 573 00:28:02.400 --> 00:28:05.839 some fancy branding. I can actually show this off we 574 00:28:06.079 --> 00:28:10.599 just added and then oh. 575 00:28:10.759 --> 00:28:13.599 Live demo, live demo, right fingers. 576 00:28:13.400 --> 00:28:18.920 There you go. If it comes up, Oh, it's really. 577 00:28:18.680 --> 00:28:21.519 Bright coming, it's coming, so you can see. 578 00:28:21.359 --> 00:28:24.640 It's a ham. It's a ham emoji, it's a ham. 579 00:28:24.880 --> 00:28:29.960 It's a ham. Yeah, there is there. That's great, that's good. 580 00:28:30.079 --> 00:28:33.839 Great flash again. We're having a lot of fun with this. 581 00:28:34.279 --> 00:28:37.359 And this is actually the first time we're using the 582 00:28:37.519 --> 00:28:41.160 short turbo mode. It's five hundred killer hurts wide instead 583 00:28:41.200 --> 00:28:44.559 of two hundred and fifty. You can it's yourself dictionaries 584 00:28:44.599 --> 00:28:48.920 on this thing, and it's almost instantaneous. We're greatly excited 585 00:28:48.960 --> 00:28:50.400 to see how that's going to play out. 586 00:28:50.880 --> 00:28:54.000 So is the turbo mode. Is the turbo mode new 587 00:28:54.119 --> 00:28:56.559 or is that something that's been around for a while. 588 00:28:56.799 --> 00:28:58.559 It's been in there for quite some time, We've just 589 00:28:58.599 --> 00:28:59.759 never used it at this scale. 590 00:29:00.480 --> 00:29:04.240 Okay, okay, it is the newest of the presets. I 591 00:29:04.799 --> 00:29:06.359 maybe it's been in there about a year or something 592 00:29:06.400 --> 00:29:06.640 like that. 593 00:29:06.799 --> 00:29:09.319 Yeah, okay, kind of Well. 594 00:29:09.680 --> 00:29:14.839 I will somewhere deal with distance. In other words, so 595 00:29:14.920 --> 00:29:17.920 what kind of coverage do you expect get. 596 00:29:20.039 --> 00:29:23.079 Don't mention said, Yeah, it's gonna be less. 597 00:29:23.160 --> 00:29:26.599 It's gonna be less distance from each individual. But you've 598 00:29:26.640 --> 00:29:28.599 got so many people in the same place, and the 599 00:29:28.599 --> 00:29:30.920 fact that it's meshing, they're going to rebroadcast each other. 600 00:29:31.119 --> 00:29:33.640 We you know, like like we said we did. We 601 00:29:33.680 --> 00:29:37.359 did def Coon and they were in Vegas and distance 602 00:29:37.440 --> 00:29:39.720 was not a problem. We ran with the short fast there. 603 00:29:39.720 --> 00:29:41.480 I don't think we went to short turbo. But there's 604 00:29:41.519 --> 00:29:44.640 just so many nodes. The the problem you run into 605 00:29:44.839 --> 00:29:48.119 is not distance. The problem you run into is airtime contention. 606 00:29:49.039 --> 00:29:49.480 Mm hmm. 607 00:29:49.799 --> 00:29:50.920 Okay, that's good. 608 00:29:51.599 --> 00:29:52.680 So I flashed my. 609 00:29:54.079 --> 00:29:58.400 Well, Carlos, you got a Carlos is probably jumping out 610 00:29:58.440 --> 00:30:00.319 of an airplane right now. That's why his internet quick. 611 00:30:01.960 --> 00:30:03.519 He took his chair with him this time, which I 612 00:30:03.559 --> 00:30:06.960 thought was strange, But uh, Kyle, you had something, go ahead, Kyle. 613 00:30:07.039 --> 00:30:10.119 Yeah, So I flashed my node with the hamdvention firmware, 614 00:30:10.920 --> 00:30:14.279 and so obviously I'm going to use it during ham Vention. 615 00:30:14.359 --> 00:30:16.799 Whenever I come home from ham Vention, do I need 616 00:30:16.839 --> 00:30:19.880 to reflash it or or flash it with another version 617 00:30:20.359 --> 00:30:22.599 that you guys are going to put out, or can 618 00:30:22.640 --> 00:30:26.279 I use the hanmdventioned version whenever. I'm just you know, 619 00:30:26.480 --> 00:30:27.960 tooling around Saint Louis here. 620 00:30:28.319 --> 00:30:30.160 So, I mean, we changed a lot of things in 621 00:30:30.200 --> 00:30:33.200 the event. Firmware is one thing. I forgot to mention. 622 00:30:33.319 --> 00:30:36.039 We've baked in three channels this year, all with different 623 00:30:36.119 --> 00:30:39.119 encryption keys that are not you know, compatible with the 624 00:30:39.160 --> 00:30:42.759 main mesh. And that's kind of on purpose. So you 625 00:30:43.039 --> 00:30:45.839 went and took this home, then you'd be a party 626 00:30:45.880 --> 00:30:48.200 of one unless you went and changed all the settings back. 627 00:30:48.240 --> 00:30:53.559 Anyways, Well, sometimes that's the best thing for me, So 628 00:30:53.599 --> 00:30:54.359 that's that was. 629 00:30:54.799 --> 00:30:57.720 Yeah. My question was about the existing channels you have, 630 00:30:57.759 --> 00:31:00.160 because we've got some We've got some custom channels for 631 00:31:00.200 --> 00:31:03.000 the North Texas area here where I am. If I 632 00:31:03.079 --> 00:31:05.119 flash this ham benched firmer, is it going to nuke 633 00:31:05.119 --> 00:31:08.359 everything I have in my in my custom settings that 634 00:31:08.400 --> 00:31:11.720 I've already set up, it will? Okay, Okay, this is 635 00:31:11.720 --> 00:31:14.000 why you should have more than one or perhaps maybe 636 00:31:14.079 --> 00:31:16.839 more than ten meshtastic notes, so you can set one 637 00:31:16.920 --> 00:31:18.440 up for all these different events and whatnot. 638 00:31:18.519 --> 00:31:22.240 So all right, so Jonathan and Austin, I was going 639 00:31:22.279 --> 00:31:24.079 to ask about that because I was doing my notes 640 00:31:24.079 --> 00:31:26.480 today and I'm an IT guy, so I can I 641 00:31:26.519 --> 00:31:29.720 can get in and do the command line and pull 642 00:31:29.759 --> 00:31:32.559 my keys out and stuff like that and back it up. 643 00:31:33.160 --> 00:31:35.039 Are you guys going to have a routine that that's 644 00:31:35.039 --> 00:31:38.359 maybe a little bit more user friendly for for something 645 00:31:38.400 --> 00:31:42.599 that would be a little bit more adoptable for let's 646 00:31:42.599 --> 00:31:45.680 say Mike for example, since he blatantly says he doesn't 647 00:31:45.680 --> 00:31:47.960 know anything about computers, that's true. 648 00:31:48.440 --> 00:31:50.440 Yeah, it's not in there yet. That is something that 649 00:31:50.440 --> 00:31:53.279 we've we've talked many times about. It's like trying to 650 00:31:53.319 --> 00:31:56.559 figure out, how do you how to particularly those keys right, 651 00:31:56.640 --> 00:31:59.359 the PKAI keys, how do you back those up? How 652 00:31:59.400 --> 00:32:01.000 do you make it easy for the normal user to 653 00:32:01.000 --> 00:32:03.920 back it up? I think Garth probably can talk about this. 654 00:32:04.000 --> 00:32:05.680 Garth does a lot of our kind of user experience 655 00:32:05.680 --> 00:32:07.400 stuff that he thinks through. Do we have a solution 656 00:32:07.519 --> 00:32:08.960 rolled out anywhere yet? 657 00:32:10.599 --> 00:32:14.759 So for the channel settings, you can use a QR 658 00:32:14.839 --> 00:32:17.839 code right to go back and forth between the different 659 00:32:17.880 --> 00:32:21.519 settings and keep the channels in place. You can go 660 00:32:21.599 --> 00:32:24.519 to hand bention and not use the event specific firmware 661 00:32:24.880 --> 00:32:27.160 and flash the device with the QR code. 662 00:32:27.599 --> 00:32:30.279 It won't add every one of the settings. 663 00:32:31.240 --> 00:32:35.039 In that case, but the QR codes are meant to 664 00:32:35.039 --> 00:32:38.240 be the sort of easy for general people to use 665 00:32:38.400 --> 00:32:40.799 to move around, and one of the things that just 666 00:32:40.920 --> 00:32:44.279 Fantastic in general wants to get better at is moving 667 00:32:44.319 --> 00:32:47.680 around between the presets. So we have twelve different presets 668 00:32:48.119 --> 00:32:50.440 whatever the number is, I don't know if that's totally right, 669 00:32:50.920 --> 00:32:54.920 the reasonable amount of presets and most of the traffic 670 00:32:55.039 --> 00:32:57.400 because people kind of want to be able to communicate 671 00:32:57.440 --> 00:32:59.839 with the big. 672 00:32:59.640 --> 00:33:01.720 Public networking areas where they're at. 673 00:33:01.799 --> 00:33:04.960 On the default channel, we have like ninety nine percent 674 00:33:05.279 --> 00:33:08.400 of the people on long fast on slot twenty in 675 00:33:08.440 --> 00:33:12.640 the US. That comes out to nine of zero six 676 00:33:12.720 --> 00:33:16.279 or whatever it is as far as the frequency and 677 00:33:16.359 --> 00:33:20.759 so moving around to presets that work better for the 678 00:33:20.960 --> 00:33:24.640 terrain for the you know, a metal building in Ohio 679 00:33:24.799 --> 00:33:28.079 with hundreds of people packed into it is a use 680 00:33:28.119 --> 00:33:31.960 case where the distance really doesn't matter. Laura stands for 681 00:33:32.559 --> 00:33:35.400 long range, but it's kind of irrelevant, right. You can 682 00:33:35.519 --> 00:33:40.400 use the walkie talking in there, and so we're using 683 00:33:40.440 --> 00:33:42.720 a much faster preset to be able to just handle 684 00:33:42.759 --> 00:33:46.640 all the activity all at once, and so getting better 685 00:33:46.880 --> 00:33:49.960 as a community and with all the different community groups 686 00:33:50.000 --> 00:33:51.839 that moving around. 687 00:33:51.799 --> 00:33:55.079 For different use cases. It is one of the things 688 00:33:55.079 --> 00:33:57.279 that we really want to work on over probably the. 689 00:33:57.160 --> 00:34:01.440 Next year or so, rather than just creating a brand 690 00:34:01.480 --> 00:34:04.000 new version of bench Tastic that kind of turns off 691 00:34:04.039 --> 00:34:06.160 all of the old but rather using all the stuff 692 00:34:06.200 --> 00:34:09.920 that we do have and moving people to different places 693 00:34:09.920 --> 00:34:13.000 for different use cases. Right, So, if you're out and 694 00:34:13.039 --> 00:34:17.320 you're hiking and the distance is super important, long fast 695 00:34:17.360 --> 00:34:20.440 works great for that. If you want to be able 696 00:34:20.480 --> 00:34:23.119 to communicate with other nearby nodes, it's great for that. 697 00:34:23.639 --> 00:34:28.239 If you're really worried about, you know, having a small 698 00:34:28.519 --> 00:34:32.719 encrypted group and you want faster communications and things, there's 699 00:34:32.760 --> 00:34:36.559 presets available for those things as well. The long Moderate 700 00:34:36.639 --> 00:34:39.360 preset is really good if you want a little extra distance. 701 00:34:39.679 --> 00:34:42.360 It goes really slow in many cases, so you kind 702 00:34:42.360 --> 00:34:46.239 of watch the text messages go out and come back. 703 00:34:46.320 --> 00:34:49.639 So one of the things, just as a project that 704 00:34:49.719 --> 00:34:51.800 we want to get better at is getting people to 705 00:34:52.000 --> 00:34:53.760 use the different presets and. 706 00:34:55.519 --> 00:35:00.280 Except for very long slow, don't use that one's gone. 707 00:35:00.719 --> 00:35:01.840 We did finally kill it. 708 00:35:01.840 --> 00:35:06.719 Okay, good, very long slow, that's uh. It's it's probably 709 00:35:06.760 --> 00:35:08.719 like one hundred and sixty meters band. It just takes 710 00:35:08.719 --> 00:35:10.320 too much effort, right, Well. 711 00:35:10.199 --> 00:35:13.679 No, most people's hardware couldn't support it. Actually, you had 712 00:35:13.679 --> 00:35:17.199 to have a really really tight temperature control oscillator to 713 00:35:17.280 --> 00:35:19.239 even be able to sit and receive on it, and 714 00:35:19.360 --> 00:35:21.880 so many devices didn't have the tolerances tight enough to 715 00:35:21.920 --> 00:35:24.159 do it. And so you know, people will go, oh, 716 00:35:24.199 --> 00:35:26.280 mine goes to eleven, let's go to the longest, and 717 00:35:26.400 --> 00:35:27.800 of course that's what we all do. I want to 718 00:35:27.800 --> 00:35:29.079 see how far I can get this thing to go, 719 00:35:29.400 --> 00:35:31.880 and the performance would just be terrible on about half 720 00:35:31.880 --> 00:35:32.760 the devices out there. 721 00:35:33.599 --> 00:35:35.400 So now that I have a better cell phone signal, 722 00:35:35.559 --> 00:35:39.719 my question, perhaps maybe I didn't hear the answer, how 723 00:35:39.800 --> 00:35:42.760 does the AVENE. 724 00:35:43.920 --> 00:35:46.719 Firmware and deal with businesses? 725 00:35:46.760 --> 00:35:51.159 So perhaps miles twenty miles away from the event, persuming 726 00:35:51.199 --> 00:35:54.400 the antenna's in a very tall location, I. 727 00:35:54.360 --> 00:35:56.559 Would anticipate that that would work if you've actually got 728 00:35:56.639 --> 00:35:58.119 line of sight right. 729 00:35:59.440 --> 00:35:59.599 Too. 730 00:35:59.679 --> 00:36:03.840 If yeah, that that's that is kind of a long 731 00:36:03.880 --> 00:36:08.519 shot for the short turbo but again, line of sight, 732 00:36:08.639 --> 00:36:13.119 Laura is just amazing. Yeah, honestly, you can do you 733 00:36:13.159 --> 00:36:14.960 can do a repeater. You can do a repeater over 734 00:36:15.000 --> 00:36:17.519 the internet. You know there there are ways to make 735 00:36:17.559 --> 00:36:20.960 that work. But if you've got it up high enough 736 00:36:21.000 --> 00:36:22.239 and then you can actually see it, I bet we'll 737 00:36:22.239 --> 00:36:22.639 go through. 738 00:36:22.599 --> 00:36:28.400 Well, and is to hopefully link some people up from 739 00:36:28.400 --> 00:36:30.840 the Cincinnati area for a few minutes at a time 740 00:36:31.280 --> 00:36:34.599 into day, just to see how well the message behaves. 741 00:36:35.360 --> 00:36:36.960 You're gonna jump with one, Carlos. 742 00:36:38.159 --> 00:36:40.400 I've been jumping with love for you know, about a year, 743 00:36:40.440 --> 00:36:41.880 and I will have mentioned last year. 744 00:36:42.440 --> 00:36:45.239 Okay, okay, so you're the You're the reason why the 745 00:36:45.280 --> 00:36:46.599 network clogged. 746 00:36:47.199 --> 00:36:54.960 To do this because I didn't question go ahead joining 747 00:36:54.960 --> 00:36:56.440 the I was joining the show. 748 00:36:56.480 --> 00:37:02.079 Hold on right, Carlos, your internet is still kind of 749 00:37:02.079 --> 00:37:03.920 in and out, buddy. We're trying to listen to you, 750 00:37:06.760 --> 00:37:07.800 all right, go ahead, Rob. 751 00:37:09.079 --> 00:37:12.679 So, as Jason had mentioned, we had really good luck 752 00:37:12.679 --> 00:37:16.960 at Hamcash. We used short fast, we limited the hops. 753 00:37:17.119 --> 00:37:21.239 One other thing that we did set and I'm curious, 754 00:37:21.280 --> 00:37:24.320 I see you guys did not set that, and you 755 00:37:24.320 --> 00:37:27.519 know we didn't know for sure. We just went based 756 00:37:27.559 --> 00:37:32.920 on the description was changing the rebroadcast mode. We set 757 00:37:32.920 --> 00:37:37.760 that the local only. It's too curious. 758 00:37:38.000 --> 00:37:40.639 Yeah, if everybody sets it to local only, you might 759 00:37:40.679 --> 00:37:45.239 have a problem. But if let me put it this way. Up, 760 00:37:45.559 --> 00:37:47.519 I'm trying to remember exactly what we said, but like, 761 00:37:47.960 --> 00:37:51.880 if you have five nodes on your person, you should 762 00:37:51.880 --> 00:37:55.639 set for them to not rebroadcast that way, you're not 763 00:37:55.719 --> 00:37:58.239 just a walking echoed chamber as you walk around. 764 00:37:58.760 --> 00:38:01.159 That makes sense. I never thought about that. 765 00:38:01.559 --> 00:38:03.559 Okay, Yeah, we were torn on this when we were 766 00:38:03.599 --> 00:38:05.559 talking about the event firm We're in the first place 767 00:38:05.639 --> 00:38:09.960 for Dayton, like defaulting to client mute, where that's not 768 00:38:10.079 --> 00:38:14.360 the case. Then if everyone's not aware of those distinctions, 769 00:38:14.400 --> 00:38:15.719 then you don't have a mesh anymore. 770 00:38:16.400 --> 00:38:21.880 Yeah, okay it And admittedly, the titles on those different 771 00:38:21.880 --> 00:38:26.199 rebroadcast modes are suboptimal, and you kind of have to 772 00:38:26.199 --> 00:38:28.320 go digging around to the documentation to figure out what 773 00:38:28.360 --> 00:38:31.159 they do, and in some unfortunate cases you have to 774 00:38:31.199 --> 00:38:33.480 go digging around in the firmware to understand what they do. 775 00:38:35.000 --> 00:38:37.079 I say that the documentation is actually really great, We've 776 00:38:37.079 --> 00:38:39.599 got some really good people working on it, but the 777 00:38:39.719 --> 00:38:42.639 names in particular are not stellar. 778 00:38:42.679 --> 00:38:47.920 In some cases, that makes sense. Okay, cool, but. 779 00:38:47.960 --> 00:38:51.480 Yeah it worked great at hand casions still, just tuning 780 00:38:51.519 --> 00:38:53.519 a few things made a world of difference. 781 00:38:53.760 --> 00:38:55.400 I got to figure out if I can back up 782 00:38:55.480 --> 00:38:58.920 my I might leave my pocket node on the default 783 00:38:58.960 --> 00:39:01.000 because sure enough someone's going to be there with the 784 00:39:01.039 --> 00:39:04.400 default setting on a mestastic node. Oh absolutely, But but 785 00:39:04.599 --> 00:39:07.639 I might try my uh my whatever that t de 786 00:39:07.800 --> 00:39:10.239 whatever the Spec five version of the t deck is 787 00:39:10.000 --> 00:39:12.519 is the one I've got with its own with the 788 00:39:12.559 --> 00:39:15.000 new UI and whatnot. It's self contained, it's got its 789 00:39:15.000 --> 00:39:17.880 own keyboard. The ranger, the Ranger. Yeah, that's the Yeah, 790 00:39:17.880 --> 00:39:20.079 the Ranger. So I might I might flash that one 791 00:39:20.280 --> 00:39:22.079 with the him mention firm where and kind of see 792 00:39:22.079 --> 00:39:22.840 where that goes from there? 793 00:39:22.880 --> 00:39:24.719 But when we see this is going to give us 794 00:39:24.760 --> 00:39:27.199 any better? Might answer me better? 795 00:39:27.480 --> 00:39:28.800 A little bit a little bit better? 796 00:39:28.880 --> 00:39:31.840 Yeah, all right, So let me just cut to the 797 00:39:31.880 --> 00:39:34.320 chase and go where should I go to ask the 798 00:39:34.400 --> 00:39:36.880 questions that I have before Ham mentioned, so that I 799 00:39:36.920 --> 00:39:40.239 can ask them and have an appropriate deployment. 800 00:39:39.800 --> 00:39:40.440 For my use. 801 00:39:41.000 --> 00:39:43.880 I would say, jump on discord. No, jump on the 802 00:39:43.960 --> 00:39:47.280 jump on the mestastic discord. Ask there and there's you know, 803 00:39:47.320 --> 00:39:49.880 there's a bunch of people that that will have an idea, 804 00:39:50.199 --> 00:39:52.199 And honestly, part of the answer is going to be 805 00:39:52.440 --> 00:39:54.039 we're not one hundred percent sure, make sure and let 806 00:39:54.159 --> 00:39:55.119 us know how it works. 807 00:39:57.239 --> 00:39:59.599 One's ever ever, No one's ever put a fourteen thousand 808 00:39:59.599 --> 00:40:00.920 foot in ten on one of these carlos. 809 00:40:01.039 --> 00:40:03.239 So I have, well the thing they might have. 810 00:40:04.039 --> 00:40:07.880 I've joined them in Chicago Mesh from Rochelle and then 811 00:40:11.599 --> 00:40:15.880 repeated packets into the Quad Cities Iowa Mesh and there 812 00:40:15.920 --> 00:40:18.239 were people talking on it and saying, hey, is that 813 00:40:18.400 --> 00:40:21.639 is that an airplane that's rebroadcasting for us? And you know, 814 00:40:21.679 --> 00:40:23.800 while I was up they were able to go back 815 00:40:23.840 --> 00:40:27.199 and forth. So, but that's what's a default settings or 816 00:40:27.199 --> 00:40:29.760 the default firmware. I don't know how it's going to 817 00:40:29.800 --> 00:40:32.119 behave with the dam mentioned firmwhere. So that's that was 818 00:40:32.119 --> 00:40:33.480 really the we're at. 819 00:40:34.119 --> 00:40:35.159 There's one way to find out. 820 00:40:35.199 --> 00:40:38.280 I guess James can build you a yaggy antenna for 821 00:40:38.320 --> 00:40:39.199 your parachute rig. 822 00:40:42.039 --> 00:40:46.199 The local only works. So in the case Robert, where 823 00:40:46.280 --> 00:40:50.280 you deployed a QR code for ham Nation, the reason 824 00:40:50.320 --> 00:40:54.159 that local only worked is because that key local only 825 00:40:54.239 --> 00:40:57.519 means we don't rebroadcast stuff if we can't decode it. Right, 826 00:40:57.880 --> 00:40:59.800 So your note had the key, so it was re 827 00:41:00.039 --> 00:41:05.480 broadcasting things and so that's basically what that is that 828 00:41:05.679 --> 00:41:08.480 is doing. So if you pre shared a QR code 829 00:41:08.480 --> 00:41:12.199 and everybody was using the same key, then that works. 830 00:41:12.440 --> 00:41:14.239 That works great if you're. 831 00:41:14.079 --> 00:41:17.119 Trying to provide if you're trying to provide infrastructure for 832 00:41:17.199 --> 00:41:20.440 other people like who are using their own key private groups, 833 00:41:20.480 --> 00:41:24.000 they would not be taking any advantage of the other 834 00:41:24.119 --> 00:41:25.119 nodes that are nearby. 835 00:41:25.159 --> 00:41:28.079 So that's where that would would be an issue potentially. 836 00:41:28.159 --> 00:41:29.639 But in an event. 837 00:41:29.840 --> 00:41:33.360 Case, that probably is a setting that it would be 838 00:41:33.400 --> 00:41:35.760 fine for us to put in place because if we're 839 00:41:35.760 --> 00:41:38.920 sharing all three channels and doing the local only, that 840 00:41:38.960 --> 00:41:41.400 would rebroadcast any of those three so. 841 00:41:41.400 --> 00:41:44.639 Except except for DMS, Except for DMS. Garth would kill 842 00:41:44.719 --> 00:41:49.679 DMS with local only. I think so, because you can't 843 00:41:49.960 --> 00:41:51.800 that's the whole point. Man, people in the middle kimp 844 00:41:51.840 --> 00:41:55.880 direct them. I honestly, I would have to go into 845 00:41:55.920 --> 00:41:57.800 the firmwhare and look at exactly how it handles that. 846 00:41:57.840 --> 00:41:59.880 But my suspicion is that local only would not for 847 00:42:00.239 --> 00:42:02.239 DMS possible. 848 00:42:02.400 --> 00:42:04.840 Yeah, I mean, we didn't seem to have any trouble 849 00:42:04.880 --> 00:42:09.079 with DMS, but maybe there was enough people that were 850 00:42:10.159 --> 00:42:13.639 not configured in that way that maybe it was carrying it. 851 00:42:13.719 --> 00:42:16.719 I don't know, but that's possible. 852 00:42:17.079 --> 00:42:21.519 Yeah, Now would that would that reserve some bandwidth if 853 00:42:21.559 --> 00:42:23.920 you did turn that on as well? Again, just thinking 854 00:42:23.960 --> 00:42:26.519 of a really big, really big of. 855 00:42:26.480 --> 00:42:30.320 That, I think I think the way that probably it 856 00:42:30.360 --> 00:42:34.280 would reserve potentially a little bit, but probably the best 857 00:42:34.280 --> 00:42:36.960 guidance is, again, if you've got more than one node, 858 00:42:37.039 --> 00:42:38.800 or you know multiple people going to be together, give 859 00:42:38.840 --> 00:42:41.880 more than one node together in the party, turn most 860 00:42:41.920 --> 00:42:45.320 of them onto client mute. That way, they don't rebroadcast anything, 861 00:42:45.639 --> 00:42:50.800 because every every rebroadcast is airtime, right and even if 862 00:42:50.880 --> 00:42:54.280 even if a remote node can't pull down the entire message, 863 00:42:54.320 --> 00:42:56.400 it may still see, hey there's a preamble there. I'm 864 00:42:56.400 --> 00:42:58.280 going to shut up and listen for a minute. And 865 00:42:58.360 --> 00:43:01.679 so every rebroadcast kind of from that shared airtime. So 866 00:43:01.760 --> 00:43:03.679 anything you can do, and that's that's essentially what the 867 00:43:04.519 --> 00:43:07.199 what the special firm where is it is? 868 00:43:07.280 --> 00:43:08.519 What everything? 869 00:43:08.599 --> 00:43:10.639 What can we do to figure out how to get 870 00:43:10.800 --> 00:43:13.760 off of that shared airtime? How can we shut up 871 00:43:13.800 --> 00:43:16.559 as much as possible with each individual node that way, 872 00:43:16.599 --> 00:43:19.840 there's plenty of plenty of bandwidth for everybody. 873 00:43:20.039 --> 00:43:20.840 Yeah, makes sense. 874 00:43:20.920 --> 00:43:21.159 Cool. 875 00:43:21.719 --> 00:43:25.960 Good. Do we have a link for the mestastic discord. 876 00:43:26.800 --> 00:43:27.360 We can get you one. 877 00:43:27.719 --> 00:43:29.800 I don't think that. I'm not sure if I'm a 878 00:43:29.840 --> 00:43:30.320 member of. 879 00:43:30.280 --> 00:43:34.599 That or not on at dot word take the discord logo. 880 00:43:36.199 --> 00:43:38.079 Why would I have not a choin. So we've got 881 00:43:38.119 --> 00:43:42.360 a DFW dis discord for meshtastic and an and I'm 882 00:43:42.400 --> 00:43:46.119 a member of the Austin Meshtastic group. But that's not you, guys, that's. 883 00:43:46.079 --> 00:43:48.079 I've got a North Texas one as well. 884 00:43:48.199 --> 00:43:50.559 Yeah, yeah, yeah, North Texas and Austin. I'm I'm a 885 00:43:50.599 --> 00:43:53.480 member of both of those, but I'm not seeing that. Okay, 886 00:43:53.480 --> 00:43:55.000 I'll go try to find that. Frank, do you want 887 00:43:55.000 --> 00:43:57.199 to go to try to find that? Go to mestastic 888 00:43:57.239 --> 00:43:58.599 dot org and see if you can find a link 889 00:43:58.639 --> 00:44:02.840 to discord on there somewhere. Thank you, yep, yep, Okay, guys, 890 00:44:02.880 --> 00:44:04.880 thank you very much, all three of you. Thank you 891 00:44:05.000 --> 00:44:08.920 very much for being here. Absolutely appreciate that. Oh, Garth 892 00:44:08.960 --> 00:44:10.679 put it in the chat, Frank, just share that in 893 00:44:10.719 --> 00:44:12.920 the in the chat of the uh Garth put it 894 00:44:12.960 --> 00:44:14.599 in the zoom chat. Share it in the in the 895 00:44:14.639 --> 00:44:16.360 in the live stream chat if you would please. 896 00:44:16.320 --> 00:44:20.039 He said that as soon as I got it, there you. 897 00:44:20.000 --> 00:44:24.199 Go, or Robert Okay, Robert just shared it. There you go. Cool, 898 00:44:26.360 --> 00:44:29.440 all right. I wanted, uh, guys, thank you for being here. 899 00:44:29.519 --> 00:44:31.760 I want to try to give everyone as much time 900 00:44:31.800 --> 00:44:34.440 as we can here, so I'm not trying to rush anybody. 901 00:44:34.599 --> 00:44:37.360 If anyone has any questions, comments, or anything else about 902 00:44:37.360 --> 00:44:39.159 what something you want to say, please feel free. There's 903 00:44:39.199 --> 00:44:41.920 not We were very shoot from the hip around here. 904 00:44:42.000 --> 00:44:45.239 So James joined us, and I asked him to join 905 00:44:45.320 --> 00:44:48.800 us from Quirky QRP because he's doing a uh in 906 00:44:49.199 --> 00:44:52.039 lieu of the fact that Josh and Jason are not 907 00:44:52.119 --> 00:44:55.840 doing their what'd you call it? What do you call it? 908 00:44:56.000 --> 00:44:56.960 Uh? There there. 909 00:45:01.360 --> 00:45:01.599 Hunt. 910 00:45:01.760 --> 00:45:05.039 Yeah, yeah, they're not doing that this year. So James 911 00:45:05.079 --> 00:45:06.719 has set up something new that he told me about 912 00:45:06.760 --> 00:45:08.960 earlier today. So go ahead, man, thanks for being here. 913 00:45:09.480 --> 00:45:11.320 Yeah, it's a little thanks for having me. It's a 914 00:45:11.360 --> 00:45:14.199 little impromptu.

I mean, there are at ms there, 1243 01:00:17.960 --> 01:00:21.480 so you know you can you can get yourself in trouble, 1244 01:00:21.480 --> 01:00:27.639 even the cash early in the morning. That is true. Yeah, 1245 01:00:27.639 --> 01:00:29.079 that is true, very true. 1246 01:00:29.199 --> 01:00:31.239 I guess my question is, Paul, is how much can 1247 01:00:31.280 --> 01:00:32.280 you take back with you? 1248 01:00:32.840 --> 01:00:35.519 Yeah, because you find twelve things you can't live without. 1249 01:00:35.840 --> 01:00:38.079 Yeah, I'm flying, so I'm not worried about being going 1250 01:00:38.079 --> 01:00:40.840 too crazy ship them home. But I heard that I 1251 01:00:40.840 --> 01:00:42.760 can have Jason bring it home and then Frank's just 1252 01:00:42.760 --> 01:00:43.639 gonna stay in Dayton. 1253 01:00:44.159 --> 01:00:47.400 I'm flying back. 1254 01:00:47.679 --> 01:00:50.519 I think that Paul. I somehow I kind of feel 1255 01:00:50.559 --> 01:00:53.159 like you might have an end somewhere to get stuff 1256 01:00:53.239 --> 01:00:54.920 checked on a flight. I think that might be a 1257 01:00:54.920 --> 01:00:57.960 little bit easier for you then most people. I don't know. 1258 01:00:57.960 --> 01:00:59.880 I don't know why I feel that way, but. 1259 01:00:59.480 --> 01:01:02.159 But I'd probably do what Bill does, and that's just fedexit. 1260 01:01:02.199 --> 01:01:04.760 We get a well there you go. Yeah, that's true. 1261 01:01:04.920 --> 01:01:06.719 Bill's not here tonight. I thought we'd see him. He 1262 01:01:06.800 --> 01:01:10.119 might be working, but I don't know. So Kyle, while 1263 01:01:10.119 --> 01:01:11.519 you're up there on the screen, why don't you tell 1264 01:01:11.599 --> 01:01:14.280 us about the troll Pub because we've got some We 1265 01:01:14.400 --> 01:01:16.360 got a couple of different things we're doing this year, 1266 01:01:16.440 --> 01:01:21.719 same venue. But long story short, they I don't want 1267 01:01:21.719 --> 01:01:23.000 to I don't want to throw him under the bus, 1268 01:01:23.000 --> 01:01:25.239 but we didn't have as good an experience there last 1269 01:01:25.280 --> 01:01:27.039 year as what we have in the past. But I 1270 01:01:27.039 --> 01:01:28.519 think we have that fixed. 1271 01:01:28.199 --> 01:01:31.679 So well, we have that fixed in theory right there. 1272 01:01:31.760 --> 01:01:33.159 So yeah, So I've. 1273 01:01:32.960 --> 01:01:36.159 Been communicating with the troll Pub people and they told 1274 01:01:36.199 --> 01:01:39.880 me that quote, we will have two or three servers 1275 01:01:39.920 --> 01:01:41.480 for you on Saturday nights. 1276 01:01:41.599 --> 01:01:42.760 So let me back up. 1277 01:01:43.320 --> 01:01:46.880 Troll Pub was something that we put together through or 1278 01:01:46.880 --> 01:01:51.000 four years ago to get everyone together to meet the YouTubers, 1279 01:01:51.039 --> 01:01:54.000 to just have a social hour and whatnot. And the 1280 01:01:54.039 --> 01:01:56.960 troll Pub was very was very fitting because you know, 1281 01:01:57.119 --> 01:01:58.920 people are trolls on the internet. 1282 01:01:59.199 --> 01:02:03.800 Yes, so never no, never. 1283 01:02:04.280 --> 01:02:08.840 So the first year that we did this, we rented 1284 01:02:08.880 --> 01:02:11.840 out like half of the there's like a sidebar. We 1285 01:02:11.880 --> 01:02:15.719 rented half the bar or half the sidebar, and then 1286 01:02:15.760 --> 01:02:18.159 we spilled into this patio area, which is great. 1287 01:02:19.400 --> 01:02:19.880 A couple of. 1288 01:02:19.880 --> 01:02:22.239 Years go by, we get more and more people and 1289 01:02:22.280 --> 01:02:25.280 then last year we kind of had an issue where 1290 01:02:25.639 --> 01:02:28.320 people showed up like at three o'clock in the afternoon, 1291 01:02:28.360 --> 01:02:32.400 the thing didn't start till five. We usually run a 1292 01:02:32.519 --> 01:02:35.239 tab and people put into the tab, and that was 1293 01:02:35.280 --> 01:02:36.639 not communicated correctly. 1294 01:02:36.679 --> 01:02:37.440 It was a mess. 1295 01:02:37.719 --> 01:02:42.840 So what we are doing is I went back and said, Okay, 1296 01:02:42.840 --> 01:02:45.280 time out. We got to redo this. I talked to 1297 01:02:45.320 --> 01:02:47.800 the Troll Pub and what we're gonna do is, instead 1298 01:02:47.800 --> 01:02:51.239 of the sidebar that we've had in years past, we 1299 01:02:51.280 --> 01:02:56.000 are actually roped off in the dining room for fifty 1300 01:02:56.039 --> 01:03:01.039 to sixty people. The event starts at five pm. Don't 1301 01:03:01.039 --> 01:03:03.880 get there beforehand. If you get there beforehand, just go 1302 01:03:03.920 --> 01:03:05.960 to the bar and have a drink on your own dime, 1303 01:03:06.719 --> 01:03:10.280 and then wait until myself or Jason get there or 1304 01:03:10.360 --> 01:03:13.719 somebody that knows, you know, kind of is the coordinator 1305 01:03:13.760 --> 01:03:16.960 of this thing. Let us get situated and then we'll 1306 01:03:17.000 --> 01:03:18.280 bring everybody. 1307 01:03:17.760 --> 01:03:18.719 Into the dining room. 1308 01:03:18.760 --> 01:03:22.280 You guys can eat and drink and socialize there. We'll 1309 01:03:22.280 --> 01:03:25.639 get the bill figured out, we'll get all of that 1310 01:03:25.679 --> 01:03:28.920 stuff ironed out, and then once everybody is like done 1311 01:03:28.960 --> 01:03:31.400 eating a drink, and then we can migrate up to 1312 01:03:31.480 --> 01:03:33.679 the bar and go out to the patio and do 1313 01:03:33.800 --> 01:03:37.880 our normal thing. So that is the thing that we 1314 01:03:37.920 --> 01:03:40.880 wanted to communicate is the troll pub is on. We've 1315 01:03:40.920 --> 01:03:45.840 got new things going on, but don't The problem was 1316 01:03:46.119 --> 01:03:48.280 people showed up early and said all, I'm part of 1317 01:03:48.280 --> 01:03:51.440 the YouTube bunch or the Hamm radio bunch, and then 1318 01:03:51.639 --> 01:03:54.119 stuff started to fly and we had an issue. So 1319 01:03:55.159 --> 01:04:00.480 don't go over to the bar, have a drink over there, 1320 01:04:00.559 --> 01:04:03.440 and wait for some people to show up to give direction, 1321 01:04:03.960 --> 01:04:05.880 and then we're all gonna set down together. We're all 1322 01:04:05.920 --> 01:04:08.440 going to socialize and we'll figure it out from there. 1323 01:04:08.440 --> 01:04:10.840 But it's going to start at five five pm. 1324 01:04:11.119 --> 01:04:14.519 And to clarify with the in year's path, the first 1325 01:04:14.599 --> 01:04:17.559 year we were there, they made us put a two 1326 01:04:17.639 --> 01:04:20.679 hundred and fifty dollars deposit down. Now, to be fair, 1327 01:04:21.360 --> 01:04:23.199 I gave them my credit card number. They never actually 1328 01:04:23.280 --> 01:04:26.320 charged me two hundred and fifty dollars as a deposit. 1329 01:04:26.360 --> 01:04:28.679 They never charged me, but they said that if you 1330 01:04:28.719 --> 01:04:30.400 don't spend, if we're going to rope off a section 1331 01:04:30.480 --> 01:04:32.639 for you and you don't spend two fifty, you're gonna 1332 01:04:32.679 --> 01:04:34.480 have to pay this two hundred and fifty dollars deposit. 1333 01:04:34.480 --> 01:04:37.119 And we're like, okay, that's fine, we'll probably it was 1334 01:04:37.159 --> 01:04:39.760 not an issue, trust me. So when we got there 1335 01:04:39.840 --> 01:04:43.320 that year and the following years, I just went ahead 1336 01:04:43.360 --> 01:04:45.440 and said, look, you guys already have my credit card. 1337 01:04:45.719 --> 01:04:47.880 I will just cover the first two hundred and fifty 1338 01:04:47.920 --> 01:04:50.880 dollars and then let me know when when all these 1339 01:04:50.920 --> 01:04:53.440 people that are here in our section, when the total 1340 01:04:53.440 --> 01:04:55.039 bill gets to two fifty, let me know and we'll 1341 01:04:55.039 --> 01:04:58.800 cut it off. And I did that and someone Josh 1342 01:04:58.880 --> 01:05:01.159 came in behind me, Mike came behind him, two or 1343 01:05:01.199 --> 01:05:03.960 three or four other people came in behind there. But 1344 01:05:04.039 --> 01:05:08.360 that that was totally voluntary. That's not we don't want 1345 01:05:08.360 --> 01:05:10.400 to We don't want and I'll probably do that again 1346 01:05:10.440 --> 01:05:12.280 this year, but I can't speak for anybody else. So 1347 01:05:13.280 --> 01:05:17.639 it's it's totally don't expect to have your bill paid for, 1348 01:05:17.920 --> 01:05:20.840 is what I'm trying to say. We were We like 1349 01:05:20.880 --> 01:05:22.280 to cover as much as we can because you guys 1350 01:05:22.320 --> 01:05:24.480 are great to us on the YouTube community, but that 1351 01:05:24.639 --> 01:05:27.719 is totally there's no there shouldn't be any expectation. And 1352 01:05:27.840 --> 01:05:29.800 somebody last year was like, well, I thought the YouTuber's 1353 01:05:29.840 --> 01:05:31.800 paid for all this, and well, no, that's not really 1354 01:05:32.360 --> 01:05:34.880 how it worked the first few years. It's just that 1355 01:05:35.000 --> 01:05:38.239 some people myself and five six seven other people and 1356 01:05:38.280 --> 01:05:39.880 a lot of you guys, a lot of you watchers. 1357 01:05:39.920 --> 01:05:41.760 I know, I know last year there was at least 1358 01:05:41.760 --> 01:05:44.599 two or three guys who were just channel viewers, not 1359 01:05:44.679 --> 01:05:47.000 even YouTubers, and they were just there for us because 1360 01:05:47.000 --> 01:05:48.840 they watch all of us and they're like, oh, pick 1361 01:05:48.880 --> 01:05:50.280 up the next two hundred dollars or one hundred and 1362 01:05:50.280 --> 01:05:52.239 fifty dollars or something. So it was very generous of 1363 01:05:52.519 --> 01:05:55.679 the community that was there. But just don't expect that 1364 01:05:55.920 --> 01:05:59.199 unless unless you get there and ask what the deal is, 1365 01:05:59.280 --> 01:06:01.119 and if they say, well there's nobody paying right now, 1366 01:06:01.159 --> 01:06:02.599 than just expect to pay for yourself. 1367 01:06:03.159 --> 01:06:07.239 But yeah, so that's the that's the thing on on 1368 01:06:07.440 --> 01:06:13.159 Saturday night.

And then 1618 01:17:29.880 --> 01:17:32.279 vendor Knight after that is is some of the people 1619 01:17:32.359 --> 01:17:34.399 like like Jonathan here, who you know, he created his 1620 01:17:34.439 --> 01:17:37.199 own his own radio and and uh, you know, I 1621 01:17:37.239 --> 01:17:38.640 don't know whether he's going to be at vendor Night 1622 01:17:38.680 --> 01:17:41.399 or not, but people who developed their own products will 1623 01:17:41.399 --> 01:17:43.399 be at vendor Knight selling them and the things that 1624 01:17:43.439 --> 01:17:46.640 you can't usually buy them other places, or if you can, 1625 01:17:46.880 --> 01:17:48.880 it's uh, you know, you have to pay for shiping 1626 01:17:48.920 --> 01:17:50.640 and stuff like that. They'll be here, like, yeah, Hans 1627 01:17:50.760 --> 01:17:53.600 Summers is always there. He'll have he'll have the k X, 1628 01:17:53.880 --> 01:17:55.880 the km X or the. 1629 01:17:55.479 --> 01:17:59.560 QCX q QX QX and all of his his Yeah, 1630 01:17:59.640 --> 01:18:01.119 go ahead, I'll have to I'll have to get another 1631 01:18:01.199 --> 01:18:02.680 kit from him that I don't build and haveing my 1632 01:18:02.720 --> 01:18:05.279 shelf here at home. So that's generally for the last 1633 01:18:05.319 --> 01:18:06.960 three years, that's what I've done. I buy a kid, 1634 01:18:07.079 --> 01:18:08.640 I take it home. I've still got it right here. 1635 01:18:08.680 --> 01:18:12.239 So but yeah, great, great, Yeah, no shipping and no 1636 01:18:12.359 --> 01:18:15.199 overseas shipping from wherever he wherever he's shipping from. 1637 01:18:15.239 --> 01:18:17.439 So right, So it's a seminar and then that, and 1638 01:18:17.479 --> 01:18:19.079 then there's a break, and then there's a there's a 1639 01:18:19.119 --> 01:18:21.720 vendor night. Then the following day you know, it's it's 1640 01:18:21.760 --> 01:18:24.840 the Hamvention. So they you know, that Friday you do that. 1641 01:18:24.880 --> 01:18:28.119 But then that Friday night they have a club night 1642 01:18:28.359 --> 01:18:32.039 and a challenge where you know, you can enter in 1643 01:18:32.079 --> 01:18:34.520 the contest to see who this year it's the it's 1644 01:18:34.520 --> 01:18:36.520 the it's a you have a micro chip and you 1645 01:18:36.560 --> 01:18:38.760 and you get to see how long how much power 1646 01:18:38.800 --> 01:18:40.039 you can put through it. The person who can put 1647 01:18:40.039 --> 01:18:41.920 through the most power through it without burning up the 1648 01:18:42.000 --> 01:18:45.199 chip will win the competition. And then the following you know, 1649 01:18:45.399 --> 01:18:51.319 on Saturday, there's a actual a a big dinner, a banquet, 1650 01:18:51.840 --> 01:18:54.439 and there's a lot of recognition. There's usually somebody who 1651 01:18:54.600 --> 01:18:57.359 is nominated to the q RP Hall of Fame who's 1652 01:18:57.439 --> 01:18:59.720 recognized then at that at that banquet, as well as 1653 01:18:59.760 --> 01:19:03.039 a lot of prizes are given out, So it's good. 1654 01:19:03.079 --> 01:19:04.840 It's really a good things and it just kind of 1655 01:19:04.880 --> 01:19:08.640 fills in where you know, it doesn't interfere with the hamvention, 1656 01:19:09.319 --> 01:19:10.359 it just supplements it. 1657 01:19:10.399 --> 01:19:11.319 So it's really great. 1658 01:19:11.640 --> 01:19:13.560 Hey, Charlie, I got a question you might be able 1659 01:19:13.640 --> 01:19:17.720 to answer, what is the definitive answer from the q 1660 01:19:17.880 --> 01:19:23.239 RP International Group on what exactly is QRP as far 1661 01:19:23.319 --> 01:19:26.520 as power ratings, because you'll see people running around there 1662 01:19:26.520 --> 01:19:30.720 at dating with fifteen minus one. 1663 01:19:29.600 --> 01:19:32.359 Fifteen hundred minus one is yeah fifteen yeah. 1664 01:19:32.319 --> 01:19:32.680 Yeah, yeah. 1665 01:19:32.680 --> 01:19:34.479 I don't think we have a definitive answer. I think 1666 01:19:34.479 --> 01:19:37.279 there's a there's a recommendation that for Morris code it's 1667 01:19:37.479 --> 01:19:41.760 you know five ten, and then for for a sideband 1668 01:19:42.239 --> 01:19:44.760 ten to twenty. So, but you know it's it's in 1669 01:19:44.800 --> 01:19:45.319 that range. 1670 01:19:45.319 --> 01:19:48.680 But if you look at the Q signals, if you 1671 01:19:48.720 --> 01:19:50.960 look at the Q signals, all of them, Okay, you 1672 01:19:51.000 --> 01:19:53.800 read the definition of all the Q signals, QRP means 1673 01:19:54.479 --> 01:19:57.880 are you running low power or decrease power. There's not 1674 01:19:58.000 --> 01:20:00.279 actually a number ever assigned to it. A lot of 1675 01:20:00.279 --> 01:20:02.119 people will tell you, oh, if it's over ten wats, 1676 01:20:02.159 --> 01:20:04.520 it's not QRP. Well that's that's you're you're looking at 1677 01:20:04.560 --> 01:20:06.560 it from a contest standpoint, because a lot of contests 1678 01:20:06.560 --> 01:20:09.199 will say, if you're doing QRP, you need to use 1679 01:20:09.239 --> 01:20:11.560 ten wats or less. Okay, fine, but there's not really 1680 01:20:11.840 --> 01:20:15.479 to the traditional qr code. There's not actually a number 1681 01:20:15.520 --> 01:20:18.840 put to it. So I'm a subscriber to fifteen hundred 1682 01:20:18.840 --> 01:20:22.560 minus one equals QRP. That's that's my thought. But people 1683 01:20:22.560 --> 01:20:23.479 would say what they want to. 1684 01:20:23.560 --> 01:20:26.840 I guess it depends from person to person. Yes, Utosa, 1685 01:20:27.039 --> 01:20:29.920 five watts is what I've heard, but I define it 1686 01:20:29.920 --> 01:20:33.760 as any single digit number of watts. Is is a 1687 01:20:33.840 --> 01:20:36.000 QRP single digit? 1688 01:20:36.119 --> 01:20:37.920 Okay? So I can go that way. 1689 01:20:38.159 --> 01:20:41.119 Anything up to ten watts, Yeah, that's it. 1690 01:20:41.239 --> 01:20:42.880 We don't need to we don't need it to be exact. 1691 01:20:43.039 --> 01:20:45.159 It's just because half the time anyway, you don't know. 1692 01:20:45.199 --> 01:20:47.000 You say you're running five wats and you could be 1693 01:20:47.039 --> 01:20:47.800 running two anyway. 1694 01:20:47.840 --> 01:20:49.520 You know, it's just yeah, that's true. 1695 01:20:49.600 --> 01:20:53.000 And also you might be running equipment that you homebrewed 1696 01:20:53.640 --> 01:20:55.840 in which you might not even know exactly how much 1697 01:20:55.840 --> 01:20:57.239 power you're running in the first place. 1698 01:20:58.279 --> 01:21:00.960 Jonathan, I think that's a T shirt single single digit 1699 01:21:01.079 --> 01:21:02.960 q RP single. 1700 01:21:04.199 --> 01:21:07.840 Yeah. I like this one right here, Jonathan put in 1701 01:21:07.840 --> 01:21:11.239 in our zoom chat. Additionally, QRP can refer to questionable 1702 01:21:11.319 --> 01:21:13.920 research practices. Well played, Google, AI. 1703 01:21:17.359 --> 01:21:17.680 Oh. 1704 01:21:18.159 --> 01:21:20.359 I also want to point out that with our thirty 1705 01:21:20.520 --> 01:21:23.920 milliwatts of transmit power, I think mestastic wins that competition. 1706 01:21:24.000 --> 01:21:26.239 I think mestic would be considered q r P. I'm 1707 01:21:26.279 --> 01:21:31.000 good with that. Yeah, there is a QRP CLA. Yeah, 1708 01:21:31.159 --> 01:21:37.319 well QRP pp Okay, good cool, okay, Well, thank you 1709 01:21:37.359 --> 01:21:42.520 for that definition, Charlie. That was good.

However, 1780 01:25:48.720 --> 01:25:52.600 the trajectory works at like right like nine to twenty 1781 01:25:52.680 --> 01:25:55.800 at night, so right after sundown, and it supposedly was 1782 01:25:55.800 --> 01:25:57.800 was going to be really easy to see because the 1783 01:25:58.680 --> 01:26:01.680 me the sun was of the sun was bouncing off 1784 01:26:01.680 --> 01:26:04.199 of it. So it's one of the lowest passes that 1785 01:26:04.239 --> 01:26:06.319 it's been in the last couple of years or something 1786 01:26:06.319 --> 01:26:06.520 like that. 1787 01:26:06.560 --> 01:26:08.239 He said, Yeah, that's what I was going to say, 1788 01:26:08.279 --> 01:26:11.520 like every couple of years, the orbit is such that 1789 01:26:12.600 --> 01:26:16.479 you know the timings right, and the orbit's right and 1790 01:26:16.960 --> 01:26:19.199 the thing looks enormous in the sky. 1791 01:26:19.319 --> 01:26:20.000 Yes, right. 1792 01:26:21.239 --> 01:26:23.920 Didn't do that a couple of times Friday night? 1793 01:26:24.399 --> 01:26:24.720 Or was it? 1794 01:26:24.800 --> 01:26:24.840 Just? 1795 01:26:24.960 --> 01:26:27.600 As far as I know, it was just the one time, 1796 01:26:27.600 --> 01:26:29.279 But I'm not I'm not hum sure. 1797 01:26:29.640 --> 01:26:31.760 Because I was walking back over to the main house 1798 01:26:32.479 --> 01:26:35.159 and I think it was after midnight. I saw a 1799 01:26:35.199 --> 01:26:37.840 big lit up ball in the sky. I just assumed 1800 01:26:37.840 --> 01:26:41.359 it was an airplane because that's that's that's no moon, 1801 01:26:41.800 --> 01:26:45.199 that's no, it was moving.

And uh, I'm gonna I'm I just walked 1961 01:34:10.000 --> 01:34:12.800 in the bedroom after running ft eight and all of 1962 01:34:12.840 --> 01:34:16.319 a sudden, I hear this squealing and I come out 1963 01:34:16.399 --> 01:34:19.960 around this corner right here, and this whole shack, well, 1964 01:34:20.199 --> 01:34:23.880 shack office, whatever you gonna call it, is full of smoked. 1965 01:34:24.119 --> 01:34:27.079 My screen on my radio. I had a ya sue 1966 01:34:27.720 --> 01:34:30.119 seven ten at the time. Actually, I'd only had it 1967 01:34:30.159 --> 01:34:37.079 for maybe a month or two, had had screams, going 1968 01:34:37.239 --> 01:34:41.079 nuts and everything like that. Immediately turn it off, take 1969 01:34:41.119 --> 01:34:48.279 the thing outside. It's like burning hot and uh bad, 1970 01:34:48.520 --> 01:34:54.159 set it down all this and uh anyway, I got fortunate. 1971 01:34:54.760 --> 01:34:57.960 I put in a claim with Yasu and they covered it. 1972 01:34:58.319 --> 01:35:00.560 Uh it all really nice. 1973 01:35:01.239 --> 01:35:02.239 I shipped it off. 1974 01:35:03.119 --> 01:35:06.000 But but you're making a live recorded confession now. 1975 01:35:10.479 --> 01:35:13.720 There is I think that the fuse would pop on 1976 01:35:13.840 --> 01:35:14.199 that thing. 1977 01:35:14.520 --> 01:35:16.159 Yeah, you would, you would think. 1978 01:35:16.159 --> 01:35:17.079 I think I would think. 1979 01:35:17.399 --> 01:35:19.960 I think that's why they did cover it, just because 1980 01:35:20.000 --> 01:35:22.039 it should have It should have killed itself. 1981 01:35:22.159 --> 01:35:25.840 But the fuse popping. Can you guys see that there? 1982 01:35:26.880 --> 01:35:31.840 That's my that's my z bit X and pieces. 1983 01:35:31.880 --> 01:35:32.760 That's a brand new radio. 1984 01:35:32.840 --> 01:35:35.720 Tim, would you do to that in pieces and fuse? 1985 01:35:36.600 --> 01:35:37.319 No views? 1986 01:35:37.720 --> 01:35:38.960 No, there is no fues in it. 1987 01:35:39.399 --> 01:35:41.800 There is no how was this going to mention that too? 1988 01:35:41.880 --> 01:35:43.600 By the way, I'm glad Tim brought that up real quick. 1989 01:35:44.039 --> 01:35:45.439 The z b X, if you haven't. 1990 01:35:45.239 --> 01:35:49.000 Heard, it's a all band, all mode radio that is 1991 01:35:49.800 --> 01:35:51.560 at him mentioned probably going to be one hundred and 1992 01:35:51.600 --> 01:35:53.439 sixty nine dollars instead of the two hundred. 1993 01:35:53.199 --> 01:35:54.760 With shipping nice. 1994 01:35:54.880 --> 01:35:55.760 Because he's bringing up. 1995 01:35:55.720 --> 01:35:58.079 He'll probably be bringing him over I can't promise, but 1996 01:35:58.359 --> 01:36:00.239 they usually do. They bring up over all their year, 1997 01:36:00.279 --> 01:36:02.239 So he's probably gonna probably be the best place to 1998 01:36:02.239 --> 01:36:04.199 buy it if you're gonna buy it, because. 1999 01:36:05.239 --> 01:36:07.399 I'm planning on getting one there. I got his s 2000 01:36:07.439 --> 01:36:11.359 bid X two years ago and I was happy with that, 2001 01:36:11.399 --> 01:36:13.119 So I'm planning on getting this new way. 2002 01:36:13.640 --> 01:36:16.800 I've had fun with it. Uh but but this happened 2003 01:36:16.960 --> 01:36:18.720 literally right before I was getting ready to go film 2004 01:36:18.720 --> 01:36:22.159 a video and start filming, Vince had stolen I mean, 2005 01:36:22.279 --> 01:36:24.560 I mean Vince had put out a bunch of videos, 2006 01:36:26.439 --> 01:36:29.079 but but his his roll c W. 2007 01:36:29.399 --> 01:36:30.159 So you know. 2008 01:36:32.000 --> 01:36:33.920 I did one for FT eight in side band. 2009 01:36:34.119 --> 01:36:36.079 Well, you obviously didn't want to put one in there 2010 01:36:36.119 --> 01:36:36.920 for battery. 2011 01:36:37.439 --> 01:36:39.159 Uh no, you're right, I didn't orientation. 2012 01:36:39.319 --> 01:36:42.760 But and actually and not knocking I do. I do 2013 01:36:42.800 --> 01:36:44.640 want to point this out though, and this isn't knocking 2014 01:36:44.720 --> 01:36:51.279 the company. So this is the uh play it. Well, 2015 01:36:51.279 --> 01:36:54.039 I've changed my plate, but there's there's pluses and minuses 2016 01:36:54.079 --> 01:36:57.319 in there, and uh, the black wire obviously is the 2017 01:36:57.359 --> 01:36:59.439 negative side of the battery and the loops back around 2018 01:36:59.439 --> 01:37:03.199 and comes around, goes out the pigtail. This plastic frame 2019 01:37:04.119 --> 01:37:07.199 has also has pluses and minuses on it, and they 2020 01:37:07.239 --> 01:37:09.520 do not line up with a wiring. And that's what 2021 01:37:09.640 --> 01:37:12.159 I looked at when I went to just slap a 2022 01:37:12.199 --> 01:37:14.880 battery in there really quick. Uh So, if you do 2023 01:37:14.960 --> 01:37:18.960 have one of those, make sure you the wiring, double 2024 01:37:19.039 --> 01:37:24.520 check the wiring. I mean, I'm I've reached out to him. 2025 01:37:24.560 --> 01:37:27.199 We'll see how it goes. I'm not upset upset if 2026 01:37:27.239 --> 01:37:29.560 it If it's just a swapping of the RF deck 2027 01:37:29.680 --> 01:37:31.960 or whatever, however they want to help me, you know, 2028 01:37:32.199 --> 01:37:35.079 or not, We'll just we'll roll with it and see 2029 01:37:35.079 --> 01:37:35.600 what happens. 2030 01:37:36.439 --> 01:37:37.720 Oh wow, sounds good. 2031 01:37:38.720 --> 01:37:40.680 That's pretty much how I blew up my first rack 2032 01:37:40.800 --> 01:37:46.159 whiz block meantastic node. If the connector fits, I didn't 2033 01:37:46.199 --> 01:37:50.279 mean the polarity is right, check. 2034 01:37:50.119 --> 01:37:53.560 That well, if you haven't never blown something up, you're 2035 01:37:53.560 --> 01:37:54.439 probably never real ham. 2036 01:37:56.399 --> 01:37:56.840 Positive. 2037 01:37:56.840 --> 01:37:59.439 And it wants to see like eight volts, Well it's 2038 01:37:59.479 --> 01:38:02.800 to see, but six and nine volts it draws half 2039 01:38:02.800 --> 01:38:06.359 an amp uron idle. So it's a hungry radio. But 2040 01:38:06.399 --> 01:38:10.560 it's driving two Raspberry Pie processors and a big, nice, 2041 01:38:10.560 --> 01:38:13.319 big touch screen. Right, So for what it is, it 2042 01:38:13.359 --> 01:38:15.880 does a lot of good stuff. I've had a lot 2043 01:38:15.880 --> 01:38:19.239 of fun with mine. I'm debating bringing it or not 2044 01:38:20.199 --> 01:38:22.640 to ham mentioned because it's a hard screen to read 2045 01:38:22.680 --> 01:38:25.119 in the outdoors, and that's the. 2046 01:38:25.079 --> 01:38:27.880 One center center pin is positive. 2047 01:38:27.680 --> 01:38:30.920 Center, it's center positive. Yes, So I think what Tim 2048 01:38:31.000 --> 01:38:33.000 is describing, and I had to look up mine because 2049 01:38:33.039 --> 01:38:34.720 I had mine in my hand a minute ago. What 2050 01:38:34.800 --> 01:38:37.159 Tim is describing. You can see here the red and 2051 01:38:37.199 --> 01:38:39.760 black wire on mine. In Tim's case, the red and 2052 01:38:39.760 --> 01:38:43.159 black wire were reversed by the sound of it, which 2053 01:38:43.439 --> 01:38:45.840 really surprises me because they're supposed to test every radio 2054 01:38:46.039 --> 01:38:48.119 it could be they tested it with an external supply. 2055 01:38:48.680 --> 01:38:53.439 So the in all fairness, the the pluses and minus 2056 01:38:53.520 --> 01:38:57.000 is line up with the wiring that's on the three 2057 01:38:57.079 --> 01:39:00.079 D printed case plate. It was what what is in 2058 01:38:59.840 --> 01:39:03.800 side the frame itself? And based on this, I'm assuming 2059 01:39:03.840 --> 01:39:07.239 they got frames and put the pigtails on themselves. 2060 01:39:07.279 --> 01:39:08.159 Correct, that's part of. 2061 01:39:08.119 --> 01:39:11.960 Their manufacturing process because there's there's there's a protective coating 2062 01:39:12.000 --> 01:39:15.319 over the solder joints on there. So, like I said, 2063 01:39:15.359 --> 01:39:18.560 I'm not I'm not upset about it. 2064 01:39:20.880 --> 01:39:23.319 Well, just you seem a little upset about it. 2065 01:39:25.079 --> 01:39:29.279 Well, I'm not, but. 2066 01:39:30.920 --> 01:39:31.760 Vince's point. 2067 01:39:31.960 --> 01:39:34.479 I mean, here's a here's a card, right with all 2068 01:39:34.479 --> 01:39:36.000 these checks that they did, and I don't think that 2069 01:39:36.680 --> 01:39:38.079 quality control check was on there. 2070 01:39:38.159 --> 01:39:40.520 But I'm just. 2071 01:39:40.479 --> 01:39:42.840 Saying, but if you do have one of those radios, 2072 01:39:43.039 --> 01:39:45.239 make sure you double check that because there is no 2073 01:39:46.319 --> 01:39:50.279 in line. Well, I don't know if I can get 2074 01:39:50.319 --> 01:39:53.680 detailed enough. But the trace blew the trace off the board. 2075 01:39:55.119 --> 01:39:57.560 There's a nice clean cut in it. So I don't 2076 01:39:57.560 --> 01:40:01.000 know if that was by design to as its fault 2077 01:40:01.000 --> 01:40:02.000 protection or. 2078 01:40:03.720 --> 01:40:07.279 A friend of mine, Smitty, commented on the zibit ax 2079 01:40:07.319 --> 01:40:10.279 and he says, there's a couple of diodes that provide 2080 01:40:10.399 --> 01:40:13.720 reverse polarity protection, but there's no fuse. But the diodes 2081 01:40:13.720 --> 01:40:15.279 are at the opposite end of the board from where 2082 01:40:15.279 --> 01:40:17.840 the power plug is, and so that effectively makes the 2083 01:40:17.880 --> 01:40:20.560 trace the fuse. You have now proven this to be true. 2084 01:40:21.000 --> 01:40:24.640 Yes, So can this be the can this be the 2085 01:40:24.920 --> 01:40:26.479 gray Man Poda conundrum? 2086 01:40:28.279 --> 01:40:28.640 Could be? 2087 01:40:28.960 --> 01:40:31.399 I like that, I like that you got to have 2088 01:40:31.479 --> 01:40:32.399 one bunch of TIMPs. 2089 01:40:32.520 --> 01:40:34.720 Yeah, I do, well, you know, and I was wondering 2090 01:40:34.760 --> 01:40:37.560 if they had some some diodes in there to protect 2091 01:40:37.600 --> 01:40:39.840 that but because I was looking at the schematic and 2092 01:40:39.840 --> 01:40:43.439 I was a little confused. As a professional schematic reader, 2093 01:40:43.479 --> 01:40:44.840 I was, I was a little confused. 2094 01:40:45.279 --> 01:40:48.079 Yeah, yeah, there are a couple of dietes in there 2095 01:40:48.079 --> 01:40:49.319 for reverse polarity protection. 2096 01:40:49.359 --> 01:40:53.600 Go ahead, Jason, Yeah, I was gonna. Has Paul started yet. 2097 01:40:54.159 --> 01:40:58.399 He's getting close or has started already, But yeah, I 2098 01:40:58.399 --> 01:41:01.239 already dropped a link into his stream coming up once 2099 01:41:01.279 --> 01:41:01.560 we are. 2100 01:41:01.680 --> 01:41:03.680 I saw it. I saw him, and yeah, he dropped out, 2101 01:41:03.680 --> 01:41:04.880 and I thought I thought he said he was going 2102 01:41:04.960 --> 01:41:07.119 to come back, but he might be running on his 2103 01:41:07.159 --> 01:41:11.039 own thing. Now, okay, well let's uh, let's let's start 2104 01:41:11.039 --> 01:41:14.560 to wrap this up. I'm going to turn. Uh let's see, 2105 01:41:15.600 --> 01:41:18.039 I'm gonna turn Uh no, I'm not what am I 2106 01:41:18.039 --> 01:41:18.640 gonna do here? 2107 01:41:20.279 --> 01:41:20.359 Ye? 2108 01:41:20.520 --> 01:41:23.479 He is show show self view, and I'm gonna switch 2109 01:41:23.520 --> 01:41:27.720 over to this screen right Yeah, I've got too many 2110 01:41:27.760 --> 01:41:30.720 scenes in here. Here we go switch over that screen 2111 01:41:30.800 --> 01:41:34.279 right there. So, guys, I appreciate everyone who joined us tonight, 2112 01:41:34.399 --> 01:41:37.279 especially those of you who've not been here before.
