And 7tnb las vegas. Hello, Ralph. This is KK7DBI in Seneca. Hey, Ken. Long time no talk. Happy early. New here. How are you up there? I'm doing all right for an old man. I'm hanging in there. You just get off work? I did, I did. Just got in the car, heading home. Been surprisingly a lot of people at the office over the holidays, probably because of some other person. Nobody's got any time off anymore, but it's a lot busier than normal. That's a good thing. No, no, absolutely it is. It is. And the government guys aren't working because they, you know, they weren't impacted by that furlough thing. So they're taking a lot of time off for the holidays, spend time with their families. So we're. We're getting a lot of things done that's been kind of backed up. So. Yeah. And next. Next week, things start back in full force. Travel. I gotta go out of town for a few days and we got some missions planned and things like that going on. So. Yes, it's. It's all good. So I presume I. What are you guys doing for New Year's? But probably the same as me and the wife. We're gonna go get a pizza on the way home and we're gonna find a movie to watch and that'll be about it. Make it quiet. That sounds like the safe thing to do. That's about all we're gonna do. I think the neighbor said something about they're having a little ching ding with their pipe family and stuff and want them to stop by. But I think it might be safer to stay in the house, keep their heads down. Yeah. Especially here in Vegas. It gets kind of crazy New Year's. Although they're talking about the rain here on New Year's Eve, I think, afternoon and then through the evening into New Year's Day, and they're saying it may impact the fireworks show. And they're talking about having a drone show, too. I don't know if you've seen those drone shows on YouTube. It's amazing. It's all obviously computerized and synchronized and stuff. They put out some pretty cool shows, so I'm interested to see what that might be. But that may all be canceled or subdued or whatever based on weather. Oh, I've never seen one of them drone shows, but I've heard talk about it, but I've never actually seen one. I'll bet it's quite something to see. I. I don't know what we're gonna do other than that. We're just gonna stay and maybe watch for OD or something. Yeah, I've never. I've never seen one of those shows up close and personal, so to speak. But you know, if you get a chance, you know, go on YouTube and do a search for it. That's cool. They do a lot around the holidays. Christmas time. Right. And then they'll do it, you know, Thanksgiving. I'm not Thanksgiving, I'm sorry. Fourth of July, New Year's and stuff like that. So anyway, that's about it. What other. Got any cool projects going on? It's kind of cold up here. It's pretty chilly up here today and I. We haven't done. Haven't got any plans to do anything. My wife's been into town. She had a relative, our daughter's relative passed away and they sold his house and they're cleaning it out and I don't. I don't know all the kinds of stuff she's bringing home. I don't know. She went in to help, but I'll have to see when they get home. I'm sorry. Hear that? Fisherfield holidays. All right. Hey, did you ever get those. Those pictures I sent you of the stuff my wife makes? I know I sent them to you, but I don't know if they were too big to go through email or not. Yeah, for sure I got them and my wife. I showed them to my wife and strikes them big angels and she was wondering where she can purchase one and how much you want for them. She wants for them and she was wondering if she had a page online or something that she could go to and maybe order one out of. Yeah, no, I reply to that. She doesn't have anything online yet, like an Etsy store, but if she wants it, you know. Yeah, she can ship something up to you. But I thought I. I forgot what the prices were. I thought I put the prices on the email. I said if I didn't, I can look at it again. I didn't notice anything and she didn't say anything, but she was liking them. Angels. All of them. She liked all of them. I don't think she can buy all of them, but she sure like that big angel. She likes the treatments too. Okay, well, I'll. I'll ask the wife when I get home and I'll send you the prices again. Yeah, it's different prices based on the three different sizes, obviously, but thought I attached that. Maybe I didn't, but. Okay, cool. I'll fetch that. Whatever. Ten Four out. Do that. Send them. Send me something on them. Because she was quite interested in them and she liked them all. But I don't know which one she decided she wanted. But she does want one. And you get a chance to let us know. Yeah. Yeah. All right. Well, other than that, everything's not a lot of different. Not a lot of things new here. Knock on wood. Everything seems to be surviving up on the mountaintop. We didn't last time I checked the radio sites, there was hardly any snow up there. We got that warm. That storm came through, jumped a bunch of snow. Then things warmed up and another storm came through. And I think it was more rain than snow. But tomorrow. Tomorrow and third Wednesday. Yeah, tomorrow. Thursday. Tomorrow and Thursday. It looks like it's going to be a colder storm. So we may get some more snow in the mountains. So we will see. Storms moving through today. A couple of my friends and I rolled up in what they call Hamlin Valley. That's north of Modena. And there's hardly any snow up there. There's a little bit on the ground patches here and there. And even government taking the Rice Mountain in back of there. Hardly any snow up on them. We need more snow up there. I know. Yeah. Right. Definitely in the Rockies. Right. Which filled up the Colorado, which was up Blake Meads. I was back in the comstop earlier this afternoon and the guys had the camera at Highland Peak turned on and there's looks like maybe four or five inches up there. But there were some guys up there, four by fours, so it's still accessible. Think they can go anywhere around here, Even up on there, but there's just not much snow anywhere. It was a little bit muddy in places, but not too bad. You could still get around good up there. We just need more of it, though. Good deal. All right. That's about all I know. I think been still messing around on HF quite a bit. The higher fans have been really good 10 meters. Had a lot of. Had some really good contacts on 15 meters over the weekend. And 80 for me is really bad right now because all the neighbors got their cheap Chinese Christmas lights up. It just killed me at 75 meters. So I'm pretty. Pretty noisy there. How many radios do you have in your house? Do you get that all on one radio or have you got a bunch of them? I got more freaking radios. I know what to do with especially HT high band radios. I've lost count. But anyways, as far as HF goes, I've only got. I got the. I got the IC 7610 which is 160 to 6 meters and and then I got the IC 7100 which is 160 to 440, so 70 centimeters. It's got Dstar in it. So I, I pretty much use the, the 7100 for FTA so I don't tie up the big radio and I use the 7100 for like just know on 442 meters and then on DSTAR stuff. But two HF radios and I got two HF antennas. I got the off center set inverted B and I got the flag pole vertical. They work okay. I'm really, I'm really hand tied by my CC&R. So I gotta be careful. Yeah, for sure. You know what they say, the one with the most toys wins. Where I'm lacking is the ability to put up a decent antenna. You know, if I had a, if I had my druthers I'd have a step ir. Of course they're out of business now but I'd have like a 4 40-6-meter fir up and then have a wire coming off the tower to take care of 80 and 160. But I don't think I'll ever be able to do that. Because I, because I got the covenants and restrictions in my community. I'm, I'm barely squeaking by with what I have now. I mean they can't complain about the flagpole vertical because they, our associations can't prevent you from the flagpole up. So I can give them the high five on that one, the wire antenna they can complain about. Nobody said anything yet. But yeah, I live in a covenant restricted area so I'm hosed unless I move either to a different part of town or you know, whatever more in a rural area. But I don't see that in the carts. Too bad. I got a friend that lives in one of them where they have a cake old thing and he can't do nothing. He had his truck parked on drive on. Me told him he couldn't do that. I said why did you move to a place like that? He retired Air Force and I guess he likes it. He does everything they tell him to do and he paints everything the color they tell him to paint it and if it's concrete he needs he. I don't know. I can't live like that. I'm too old fashioned I guess. M7tnd Las Vegas ready. You know I, I agree there's, there's, there's Some things that are good. I mean, it prevents somebody from being a complete swob, you know, and having like all these dilapidated cars parked on his front lawn with dirt for a lawn, you know, I mean, there's. There's good, bad, but I mean, a lot of it's not really. I mean, it's enforceable to a degree, but we got a couple of bad actors in our area, but all you can do is you can. You can find them. So you find them. You find them, you find them and they, you know, they flip you off and they'll pay. And then yet there's one guy or one or two in the neighborhood that we. That has actually got liens against their property. So. But you're not going to get anything out of it until they sell. Then they got to pay the liens off before they can close escrow. But it's not like you can have Metro come by and put them in handcuffs and take them off anywhere. It's kind of hollow, you know, as far as what they can enforce and can't. But I don't know, like I said, there's. There's good. Good and bad parts of it. Hey, Ralph, just tell them to observe the missile toe in your back pocket. Or on my belt clip. Right, yeah, I get it. Good one. Good afternoon. Wb60kv mobile daily city of all places. What city? Named after a guy called John Bailey back in the 1800s. Wow. I don't know if you heard that street. Motorcycles went flying by me here like I was chained to a bull, but locals call it Deadly city. But it's Daly B A L Y city. Okay, yeah, I'm thinking of Mayor Daly. He used to be a big political corrupt dude out of Chicago. I think he was mayor of Chicago back in the day. So, yeah, he was. He was quite a character. Not be a bit surprised that this guy here was related. All right, let you guys carry on. Didn't mean to interrupt. Couldn't. Couldn't resist throwing the mistletoe thing in there. Not an eruption at all, man. Not interruption at all. Have a good one. Have a good New Year's found. Talk to you so seven three, ma'. Am. Now I gotta get on the horn, give the wife a ringy dinghy, because if I don't, she'll say, oh, stop by Walgreens on the way home. It's like, all right, so anyway, trying to avoid that. So see ya. WD6JTV, off to the phone. All right, man, yeah, take care. Yeah, give her the ring dinghy. So you don't get your dinghy whack by your wife. All right, sounds good. All right, Ken, I'll be back to you instead of TND Vegas. But that guy that he's talking about, that outlaw back there, I'll bet it ain't any bigger than that one he's got in there as governor now. Yeah, no kidding. Our future potential Democratic presidential candidate. Right? That's definitely crazy. So hard to. Man, it's hard to believe it's only been a year. And all the. All the crap that's going on, all the turmoil is just nobody's playing nice anymore. I don't know what's going on. I don't know how it. I don't know how it ends. It's just crazy, this stuff they're bringing out, exposing all the waste. I heard one of them politicians saying, you know, if they didn't have all this fraud, we would have to pay income tax. Yeah, I don't know how you fix a system though, man. You know, it's. I get. I get more insight than a few. Than most, I guess, but it's just, you know, people try to do the right thing. I'll use that. And it's like, okay, you know what, Ken? I'll support your bill. I think it's really a good thing. But in order for you to get my vote, I need to slip in this thing to cover my constituents and so much back and forth bs. I gotta believe some people go to the hill, better people, with really good intentions, and they just get. I don't know if corrupt is the right word, but they just figure out they can't do anything unless they strike somebody else. His back. It's just spiral. I don't know. It's got something to do if. They got to be something to do if that's. They just. I can't believe they run and go in there and do good and want to work good and then end up so corrupt. I just can't believe how it happens. But I guess money changes everybody. Yeah, well, good intentions. Trying to get stuff done. Anyways, man, I am at the house. I'm gonna get the heck out of here, go change and do my workout and veg for the night. So I'll catch you later. Thanks for the shout. Good to talk to you. And I'll get that email off to you, talk to the wife and get those details again and let you know. So have A Good evening. N7TND, Kk7bdr73, you have a good night. On battery at 20. Ready. Link up.

There's a little bit of noise on the signal, but it could be linked and or stuff up here. Hard to say, but it's definitely coming through like somewhere near Tahoe City. Ish, give or take. Near the Homewood Resort. You know where that is for chamber landing. You can see the west door of Lake Tahoe up here for Christmas. Family at our cabin and I was testing out a new antenna on the bow fair, believe it or not. So really appreciate it. Thanks for the radio show. Okay, no problem. And yeah, I know exactly where that is. You might be able to get into Carla 8 also depending on your line of height to complex area there. Take that Carl 8 and then I think you're on 23, I heard coming up. Those are the two primary ones from the lake there in the basin anyhow. All right, have yourself a good rest of the day there. Happy New Year and hopefully get what you're hoping for weather wise. Other than that, I will catch up with you later. And then. Morocco, right near Campalindo High School. So wow, small world. But no, really appreciate it. And. And yeah, 73, this is K6. Monitoring there.

All right, 806 IoT Internet of Things. I got that. Right, copy that. And which system are you coming in on, by the way? Yeah, I didn't, I didn't choose the IOC call sign, but it's very fitting if I do a fair bit of Iot thing. You know, it's actually been a while since I've programmed the carbon station into the radio, so I'm not quite sure which the tiermax is coming in on. Right here in downtown Oakland. Okay. Yeah, that's Carla 5, which is up in the Oakland hills behind you there, direction you're. You're pointing. So that. And then Carla too, should get in there pretty well. Also. Car 32 across the bay. Car 19, when the Cabo get in there. So you got a plethora of repeaters to choose from, but, yeah, you're getting in just fine. I just say if you get a little bit closer to the mic, talk a little bit louder, audio drops down a little bit periodically, other than that, you're doing fine. All right, well, have a good rest of your day there. Sounds good. And thanks very much for the feedback as well. Have a good day. KO6IOT. From wp6j kv over. Click system 19 link box. Happy New Year's Eve there, unit. What's going on? Hey, always drama at 32, right? Got a call from Byron last night, you know, the American tower dude? He said, oh, by the way, you know when you go through the gate into the compound, I go, yeah. He said, well, the corner pole of the four pole structure that holds the antenna snapped and came crashing down. So, yeah, we had a bit of a hit with that wind. And then there's a power pull down between our site and. And the next side over, which includes the county and AT and T. So they're running on generator, but for some reason we got by, we still got power. So anyway, there you go. And no damage to the roof or anything else, so we're in good shape for now. So just. There you go. Yeah, it just never ends, right. So I didn't quite understand what's the first part of it? What exactly came down or failed or went over. Well, one of the power poles between our site and the next one is up the hill, which, you know, is the county and PRW and AT and T cells. The county and AT and t's running generator. And then the pole of the four pole structure, the southwest pole, the one closest to the gate, enter the compound. Well, it snapped. I haven't seen any pictures yet, but Byron Said he'd send one, so. Yeah, Okay, that's what I kind of thought you had said. But my brain was having trouble wrapping it around it or whatever. I got the power pole thing, so it sounds like two different things, right? Did you say one of the four vertical poles holding up the whole square grid map and is still upright? Yeah, I'm just trying to picture what exactly the heck happened. Well, I guess Fisher Wireless and PG and east radio systems or antennas are on that pole and they're not really vertically polarized anymore. They better tell all their users to go horizontal or 45 degrees, which is probably my guess. Thanks, Karumba man. So that's crazy. If you get any pictures, I'm definitely intrigued. I guess we're okay, but we could be cattywampus too, right? I did not notice any difference in performance, so I think we're still pretty straight. But yeah, as soon as I get pictures, I'll send them along for pile, you know. Yeah, no kidding. A dog and pony show. All right. Yeah. On my way back from the Pacific Northwest, I mean, there was all kinds of stuff down and cut up and debris everywhere and fresh cut trees and branches and meshes and past, I don't know, probably three different PG caging areas, you know, along the way. So just a lot of fun while I was done, but that's okay. Yeah, I can only imagine you guys had your hands full and then some, so. Well, happy New Year, dude. All right, you too. And real quick, are you working today and do you have a show tonight at all? No, we're lucky, man. I'm probably working half a day and our next show is the following week and right there in Pacifica, actually, you know, other alter ego, you know, the Ullman brothers, they're having it at a performing arts center, which strangely is for when I was a wee little lad that back in the 50s and went to kindergarten through sixth grade there. So, yep, got a gig and yeah, they got their own sound person, so it's like cool, man. So I can sit that one out. Yeah, but are they any good? I'll be sure to make sure it's sounds good. Yeah, I'm. I will be, you know, watching them closely and we'll see what happens. But no, Aladdin said no. They insist on doing their own sound. It's their equipment. They don't want anybody touching it. Blah, blah, blah, blah, you know. Oh, God. All right, well, good luck with that. You know, you're also the sound engineer for the band, so, you know, you got Some, you know, pull there. You say, hey, sounding like crap, I need to intervene here or tweet something or whatever. I know you probably not don't know their system and not familiar with it. Something sounds off, you know, just say, hey, dude, you need to make some anyhow. All right, very good. Oh, enjoy the day and I will try and do the thing. There you go. Yeah, pretty much nailed it in a nutshell there, dude. Yeah, my line is usually, hey, our people paid money to be here and they have certain expectations and we need to meet that. So I'm here to help. And crick, crick over quick. All right, dude, be safe out there, man. We'll be listening or lurking, however you classify it. WB6JKV, Handy Scratchy and San Ho. All right, talk to you later. I sure do. You wiggled around and got noisy. Say again. Something about that. I said, you must be way down about kind of. I am indeed. I'm inside a building, the MDC studios down in San Jose, on a handheld. So there you go. Have a little. What? Yeah, it sounds like you're moving around. You're dropping out. Unfortunately, now when you're in, you're full quiet. When you're not, you're not. It. No bueno. No, I'm at work, frank, down in san ho. Hey, I can go out to the car and get on local. Give me a sec.

I was just saying that. Yeah, some excitement here. Physical therapy class. Hey, Frank, switch over to local here. I can get you on local now. Anyway. You're still on link, Frank. Still on the link. Switch over to local and find a better spot to keep falling out.

It. Works.

System24 link off. System11 link up. Oh, I can't complain. Finished up my last trip of the year last night. So where are you at that you're on 57. Now? I'm on 11 right now and they say I think you're on 24. How's that been working so far? Is it holding up? Yeah, it's working good. When you came on I heard an announcement that System 7 was a link up. So I see that you're coming on that but you notice that you know the signal from a school that he in some areas but it generally is working fine. Yeah, as I see the hobby mixture, the lowest power output but head to head, I'll take that old. Yes indeed. I think with the antenna and its location there that even on reduced power it's working real well. Like I said, there's a couple areas where the signal gets a little bit weak that it didn't use to but overall it's working very well on the reduced power.

Are you still there? Or did you go away? Hey, Matt. Sorry. I got a phone call. I've been on hold for half an hour. They just got on, so I'll get back to you. See ya.

And seven, candy. Happy old year n6k. Hey, Ken. Yeah, Same to you, man. Leaving the office a little bit early. Gonna run by and get a pizza. And wife and I are gonna find something to watch on Netflix. Call it good. All right. Well, that's awesome. I'm just sitting here in the radio TV room. Wife is in the kitchen. She's putting together some tuna. Tuna salad or something, listening to some Lionel Richie. We had a late lunch, so I wasn't hungry, but she said she was gonna put together a little something for us to eat later. Took a good nap today, so I may just be up at midnight. Who knows? We'll see. I'm not sure I'm gonna make it. We'll find out. Yeah, they're. I saw there's, you know, on top of the typical fireworks deal here in Vegas, but they're having. They're planning on having a drone show, too. I don't know if you've ever seen one of those. I've never seen one in person, up close, whatever. I've seen them on YouTube and pretty spectacular. So I'm kind of looking forward to what they're going to do. But they're predicting rain for in about an hour or two. They're supposed to get some rain. I'm not sure if it's going to go up till midnight, so they may or may not be able actually do that. I just happen to have radar weather up. And according to that, you guys are already having rain? Yeah, you know, I'm. I'm trying to get a handle on this sky warn stuff, so I'm still doing some testing on the Carla admin hub there and doing some testing here locally with my stuff. Yeah, looks like you guys are already having some rain. And the Bay Area is having some coastal flood advisories and dense fog. Anyway. Yeah, I have seen those drone. Not in person, but I've seen plenty of them. I've seen some videos of the Japan version of some of those. Extremely amazing. And a lot of that stuff is making it to the states here. A lot of that technology and sophistication of those drone shows is making it to some of these places. I would imagine that Las Vegas may be the first to get some of the best. Yeah, yeah, we'll see. Yeah, we're not. We're not getting any rain. I'm looking at the mountaintops and the mountains are socked in, so there might be some snow up there. I know. I looked at the weather radar, I don't know, a half hour or so ago. And it showed rain right over my office, actually. Red cells, yellow cells. I'm sorry, I look out the window, there's nothing coming down. So they just never hit the ground. But I'm sure we'll get some. But yeah, I. Some of those drone things like Christmas time and stuff like that. Pretty spectacular. Yeah. You know, and on that skywarn stuff, I was, I was messing. I've got these clear notes and I was messing with skywarn on that and I had it working a while ago and I did some configuration changes and crap and I can't get that to work for the life of me. I mean, I got the. I got the right zip code in there. I got everything else. I got all the alerts turned on, I got the scheduler set, but it will not block out anything. Even like last week when we had all those storms, we had wear storm warnings out for Clark county and things like that. They were never again paid anything. So not sure what I'm doing. Well, if you want, I will send you a complete copy of my alert script or not alert script, but the config YAML file, I'll send you a copy of that. Yeah, it is extremely sensitive and touchy if you have anything wrong or incorrect. Yeah, it will not announce anything very strange. But I'll send you a copy of my yamo file, take a look at it. And you may see some things on mine that do not coincide with yours. Anyways, I do have your counties in there. So right now, as far as the global alert, the only thing that's alerting is the earthquake tsunami stuff and then for you, the flashblood stuff. So was that in on Christmas? Because I think Christmas Eve, Christmas Day is when we had all those flash flood warnings out. I never heard anything come through the system. Was that enabled back then? Yeah, the only thing that I saw were flash flood advisories and warnings and. But no, I never saw any flash flood stuff in your counties. Did you have any flash flood stuff in your counties? Yeah, yeah, I got an alert on one of my phone apps that said flash flood watcher warning. I forgot which one it was for Clark county at Nye County. And then I remember getting on the National Weather Service side and I confirmed yes, definitely there. And I was hearing alerts come through the system and I was listening for the counties and I never heard, I don't know, weird. Well, that's the funny thing about skywarn is you can block alerts and advisories. So the only thing that you'll hear from skywarn from the Carlin stuff is actual events. If there's an actual flash flood, it'll. It'll put it on the. On the system. But advisories, Advisories. No, it won't. It will not put advisories because that's, that's just a, you know, hey, there. There may be or could be a flashback coming where the warnings is, the alerts. That, you know, that's. That's an actual flash flood. Okay, well, maybe. Maybe we just had a watch there, not a warning. Anyway. Anyways, next time we have any kind of a quote unquote warning events, I'll pay more attention to. Yeah. If you see anything that's not, you know, that's not coming out over the year, let me know, you know, because this is all still just a learning curve and I think I've got it figured out. But if you're getting flash floods and it's not coming out over the air, I could be doing something wrong. Great parts of the hobby, man. Experimenting. Right. All right. Hey, I gotta get out and grab this pizza. I'm doing one of these take home and bake it yourself type things. This place called Papa Murphy's. It's really good. Good price and good quality ingredients. So I'll be right back. 10, 7T and. All right. Yeah, that's a great way to have a pizza. Okay. Happy Old Year. And Happy New Year to you. If I don't talk to you the rest of the evening, and I'll be listening N6T and E. China Columbia at Great Court. What he meant to say, whether he's going to go home and get that. That's what I thought I heard. System 11 link up. I missed it. There's a little bit of popping on your signal. What? What did you hear there, Tom? And good afternoon. Good. Yeah. No, I guess it's afternoon for you. Good afternoon and Happy Old Year. Oh, I was just saying I think what Ralph was meant to say. I thought I was reading between the lines, that you could go home and get baked. Not make it hard. Hard. Tom, I think we are a long. I'm watching myself drop out. What I think that we've all learned a long time ago and probably including Ralph, is that you do not read between the lines very well. Okay. And I was also going to say that, you know, it depends on when you're working on those files and how many cocktails you've had. Right. That could have an effect on the accuracy of those commands. Now that I've done berating you. Good. We'll Just call a good day. How's that? Almost made. All right, well, you do have me pegged a little bit. I do monitor all the files, but I don't modify the files when I'm well into my adult beverages. So there you go. All right. Well, doggone it, you enjoy your last day of 2025 and certainly make the best of your first day of 2026. Good to hear you. Sounds like you're probably driving home. Don't miss the exit and don't try to talk to us in the tunnels. I will. I'll be listening. You enjoy your evening. And six candy. Okay, well, thank you for all the advice. However, I don't. I didn't even start the engine up today, so how come that very dreary, wet day? Been doing a lot of computer work and say something about. Oh, yeah, I. You know, seeing a number of drone shows up close in person at events and stuff like that. They're even more impressive in person and pretty cool what they can do. Always amazing that there's not a big catastrophe where they start running into each other and dropping out of the sky a lot closer, cleaner, you know, than fireworks and residual smoke and whatever. Almost as expensive, if not as expensive as the fireworks show. But, you know, very interesting that that's the cool part, how they can morph into so many different things. You just don't get that big digital, know, crackle and pop and what have you. But trade one thing for another. All right, enough yab. And I haven't even had anything to drink yet. All right, enjoyable. Talk to later. And six. Hey, happy new year, tom. Enjoy. And southern f. Hey, Ralph. You do the same. I don't know if you heard my side comments when you were first jumping out there, but mentioning that I think you were trying to say maybe you were going to go home and get baked as opposed to baked the pizza there. I'm just stretching there. And the same thing goes for the accuracy of Ken's files and modifications. You want to get it before using having the adult beverages, and you'll have more chance of accuracy there. I caught the tail end of the international ball busting you were doing with them on the accuracy of the script. Yeah, I didn't catch the luck going home and getting that part, but that's good. Now I got the. I got the pizza next to me in the jeep here, and yeah, I'm definitely gonna have a few adult beverages tonight. Okay. Yeah. Catch a drone show. A drone show in person. I saw some pictures of one they did at I think it was the Vatican or something for the new co or something. Some event. And it was pretty, pretty intense. Incredible what they were doing with it. It's really cool how they get more. Anyhow, modern technology. All right, man. Have a good one. Catch up with you later. All right. Tell him. Be safe at 17.
