Speaker A: Can I get a radio check? I was with another channel one time just now and they said no audio. Go ahead.
Speaker B: Time to get out here. K86p and south monterey county.
Speaker A: I have a cousin who lives in Monterey. South Monterey County. That'd be all the way down to Big Sur, I think. Where are you?
Speaker B: The happening little middle of nowhere town of San Ardo. Like very south end of the farming area and in the county on 101,
Speaker A: Monterey. You're on Earth, aren't you? In Salinas, if you're on 101 Highway 1 goes through down that way, the coast way. But if you're on 101, that'd be around Salinas. Selena. Well, maybe that, that's. Maybe I didn't know that, but Salinas in Monterey County. I thought Selena said its own county. I forgot.
Speaker B: No, next county over to the east would be San Benito and that's where Hollister is. Now Salinas is in Monterey county. And the farming lands go from like, like south of Salinas for a good like 50, 60 miles or so. Getting pretty close to the end of it before I cross over into San Luis Obispo county and Casa Robles and all that.
Speaker A: I used to travel up that. The highway to so many dams. Oh, man, I used to go to school in Berkeley and I grew up and lived in Santa Maria. So yeah, I grew up in Santa Barbara county. Right there on the borderline there. And then next county, 700 bows in Monterey. Then you could have been there, Gilrod, stuff like that after everything else. So yeah, well, I, you know, back in the 70s there was nothing out there except for one little town 10 miles off, just five miles off. 101, I think it's called. I think you just said it. Oh, maybe not. You're on 101. Then you turn to the left and you go down dirt road. Little town out in the middle of nowhere. One bar out there that said something Bernard or thing or something like that. But anyways, yeah, we were going down over there. I used to live in Pastor Robles for about a month and I know Tascadero and all that stuff.
Speaker B: Unfortunately, I lost about half of that, what you said there. Because I'm going in and out of the covers of four right now. So I'm going to lose the Greenfield repeater here pretty quick. I think I'm going to come up on San Luis Obispo. That'll be about maybe 10, 15 minutes or so before I can reach that one. That's 26.
Speaker A: I know where Greenfield is. Okay. All right. All right. Give me a call if. I'll give you about 15 minutes. And where did you just send those? Well, way out there in the desert, what I call it anyway. Wonder where that comes in at. I never hopped computers like that that on 101, but okay, Get to work.
Speaker B: WB6JK mobile about to lose this site. Mike, I'm going to try to come up on Sam Lewis in about 10, 15 minutes with them out of the mountains here.
Speaker C: Hey, JKV, why didn't you tell me 10 was intermittent? I thought we would have deduced that.
Speaker A: No, well, you know, I don't know.
Speaker C: So, yeah, I tested it one night briefly, and it seems to be intermittent. So it's the PA after.
Speaker B: Pretty sure.
Speaker C: So there you go. Grog, if you can copy, I need you to check something for me down on 29, so I'll be with me at 670ft.

Speaker A: System11 link up.
Speaker B: Hey, you're sounding pretty good. I was going to let you know, but you probably figured it out already. That 10 and NFT. Definitely in the Dixie.
Speaker A: If I was going to be down there anytime soon and had access, I'd go in there and check the antenna for you.
Speaker B: Well, I'm pretty sure it's the PA and I think the fan on the TA conked out. Looking at the notes from, oh, I don't know, what was it, nine years ago or something. It said the fan needed a relay for the fan. It's on all the time. So I'm thinking it, it barfed and then the PA finally did too. So I think, you know,
Speaker A: Oh man, if only I had anything to just direct swap it with.
Speaker B: I'm sure you have. I'm sure you have.
Speaker A: Hardware. I've seen the article. So I imagine just like time and whatnot available, dility and all that.
Speaker B: Yeah, you know, time, money, logistics and a general willingness to go and do it. But besides that. So that thing FSU down there does not get much use. So I'm glad it's working. And am I getting knocked out every few seconds by a control channel or something hitting the link?
Speaker A: Yeah, it was random. It wasn't, it wasn't by any means following a much of a time pattern. There was one first with a couple seconds, the other one was, I don't know, seven or eight, so who knows? But yeah, it sounded like there's something in there.
Speaker B: Yeah, it's a mix. So it all depends on who's talking and when. So what's your destination supposed to be? Sam Lewis, proper.
Speaker A: I've got Fireline refresh training, that's tomorrow. Eight hour day that and then I'll be, I'll be crashing out again and going back up on Friday down in the state vehicle, all the toys, so. But yeah, doing that. Gonna stop by, hang out with a friend who moved out of the Bay Area, spend some time with him and
Speaker B: that's kind of it. Ah, well, cool. Right on. Well, that's nice. I remember those days when, you know, the employer would send you on some training mission and pay for everything and you know, those days are long gone. We're lucky if they even tell us, you know, there's new equipment and how to learn it. You know, it's usually by happenstance and some poor sucker gets to be the first one so they become the, the ME or SME, you know, and subject matter expert that is. And I'm sure you can imagine how it goes. So anyhow all right very good I'm going to go get a bike ride in and get my exercise and you know work on my perilous figure here so I'm gonna jump off but nice hearing you and we'll have to chat later.
Speaker A: Thank you Tom and if you decide
Speaker B: that
Speaker A: you have the gear but don't
Speaker B: have the time I'm willing to go
Speaker A: out and take on the project so let me know what you think that's
Speaker B: what you come up with I'm happy
Speaker A: to put a few hours of time into the Carla again if you want otherwise yeah enjoy I'm just almost at my destination anyway here so I will talk to you soon and hopefully sooner
Speaker B: than later Katie's going to see Ian. Hi Mr. Grog have yourself a fine one and thank you for the offer and trying to figure something out okay so there you go all right mv light. Hey Grog hello and goodbye catch you later there unit enjoy.

Speaker A: Hello world. E6 VOC mobile in rotor park system 26 link.
Speaker B: Voc mobile here is N6Iwhich chico over.
Speaker A: I told you trapped the other night. You and I could be the oh, the talking club. We're always on this time of the night. While I'm headed at home I got about 15 minutes till I get there. So we're completing putting together proposals for various power sites her working on plants and things. Tomorrow morning though then I'm going out to an old friend's house. She's 82. You can get married to a ham radio buddy I know was 12 and set them up with some wireless Internet. So I got going on. How about you send your Adam by the way down your bumper?
Speaker B: Yeah, I recall we have talked. There's a buzz. I don't know if it's on your signal or the machine but pretty
Speaker A: good,
Speaker B: you know like 20% noise on your signal, over.
Speaker A: Tell you I hear it on yours too. There's not a buzz and I hear it when your audio is going but not with the repeater at the swell scale. So I'm going to imagine something in the fight between you and me. I don't have a lot of intrinsic knowledge on how the designs are put together. This is one of the few things I actually don't have a hand in. Yeah, okay. Roger. Roger.
Speaker B: Well what are you on your way to work right now or on your way home?
Speaker A: I'm on my way home. I work the swing shift so I left the yard around 10 o' clock and just running through South 10 Rose at the moment so I'm actually driving towards the ice repeated where the comp site is gonna fuel the truck up and then hit the A. Told you I got a 8am appointment down the road from me. Help somebody out. Your mom ring the wife of an old friend. She's 82. Helps get the Internet going.
Speaker B: 82, wow, that's good. You know it's nice that you're helping somebody really. I acknowledge that, you know in our society society what they say in our society we don't honor our older folks. I guess you want to just put them in the home and say goodbye. I don't know.
Speaker A: This one, her outfit was a God Godless Child K A6J L P. When's the last time you heard those coming out? And let me tell you what happened. He died in 2019. And I thought I was a friend of the family. Let me word it like this at the funeral service I wasn't a friend of the family. Rather I was a pallbearer that helped lower him into the ground. So you know what I'm saying? In the end, Jesus wife, she's still here. She's 82 and where she lives. So not very many choices for Internet. So we're going to set her up with something. One of the companies being served with I think is getting ready to check out. We're going to set her up with something really soft shell. Okay.
Speaker B: Are you talking about one of those communication devices that they wear around their chest? They hit the button and it's, you know that help. I fall and I can't get up. I can't get up. Is that. It.
Speaker A: Has nothing to do with that whatsoever. This is her Internet service provider. Is company she's with is not lost in this world. At least I believe so. So we're putting her on something else. I be here for more than five hours. So we're going to go out tomorrow and check it out and see how it plays. Do not solve it if it doesn't absolutely kick butt. If you ever get that like, oh yeah,
Speaker B: Well, isp. I've heard of that. I hope it works out. I kind of feel like technology has left me. I'm back here going, hey, wait a minute, what are you talking about? Things, it seems to me get a little bit tougher in that programming of radio really requires concentration.
Speaker A: I mean people have said to me,
Speaker B: how can you, how can you be
Speaker A: a handful of 40 years and not
Speaker B: know how to program your rig over?
Speaker A: Let me tell you why. I took a dam. So what does that make me? 36 years? Hey, let me tell you like this. I. I use photo roller radios. I just spin them up on amp radio frequencies. But because I own a suite of trucks, the software allows me to sit in my AutoCAD computer and then make an adjustment in the prompt for all of the radios at once. And then the radios log in to the host computer via WI fi. Every single one of them has WI FI in it now. And they all check in and get their new programming to code.

Sar buddy the wife will call me to have she was bring her home a gallon of milk because I had drinks in all of hers this morning. That was all that was about.

Okay, you can hear me Ken73. I'll talk to you later in Southern TND Vix.
Speaker B: Hey, Ralph the Beast. I heard everything on Carla's WP68 KV mobile.
Speaker A: Hey, good morning. Good morning, Mike. Okay, well good. Wasn't sure what's going on. We've been having some problems here on our end because of all the severe weather hitting the mountaintops, but those seem to be resolved now. So glad to hear that. At least we're hitting your guy. Your guys okay? How you been?
Speaker B: Ah, there's a posy cloudy man. I'm hanging in there. Still kind of almost fully recovered from our band's gig on Saturday night. He's like damn man, just got home and all that kind of stuff. But yeah, I'm should be good today finally. But yeah, my ass was dragging yesterday and the day before.
Speaker A: Yeah, I ended up leaving the office around 2 o'clock yesterday. I was feeling like crap. I don't know what the heck it was. I just feel really drained. I'm like, man, I hope I'm not coming down with something. Like I said, I want to do this Hema thing but went home, took a little bit of some meds and laid down and got a really, really good night's sleep. So I feel feel a million percent better today. So I don't know what it was.
Speaker B: Yeah, the wife got something, it's all nasally sinuses and it rolls down her throat and it's kind of making it making her kind of cough and stuff like that, it annoys her more than anybody else, I guess. But finally today she. Because her throats feel a little better, and me being a gentleman, I offered her a throat massage. And, you know, she didn't like that idea. Oh, man.
Speaker A: I'm just gonna let that. I'm gonna let that drop right there, man. I'm not going to take that any place further. Should definitely go down that rabbit hole. Okay, very good.
Speaker B: Yeah, it was just.
Speaker A: I was just out of energy, man. It's like something just drained all the freaking energy out of me. It was just weird. But it's been a lot of. A lot of going on at work with various things and all this ran crap blowing up that's got us going all over the freaking place. You can imagine. So Tiger said some problems that, you know, with my mom is health and everything's kind of got me occupied. So. Hey, just mentally draining. And I just want to try to look forward to getting out of here for a couple days.
Speaker B: Oh, yeah, yeah. That ought to be a nice little diversion. Perfect time of the year, so. All right. Let you and Ken see if he's hearing just half of us or are here and everything. So I just wanted to say good morning. And now I'm in the p soup fog here. Zoned by San Francisco Airport, headed to work at B6JK Heavy Mobile, South San Francisco. Go ahead. Ken, if you're in there,
Speaker A: It's Robin. He's having problems.
Speaker B: We're having problems.
Speaker A: Whatever. Okay, man. Take care. Thanks for the shout, man.
Speaker B: I'm.
Speaker A: I'm actually almost to the office, so
Speaker B: I will be around.
Speaker A: I'm gonna take my. My POC radio with me and the UMA so I can get back into the system. See how that works for me later. M7C Eng, Have a good one.
Speaker B: WB68K, please. Switching back over to local so
Speaker A: Mike
Speaker B: and I can have our morning. Mike. Mike. See you. All right, man.
Speaker A: Enjoy.

And six. Candy. Ralph, are you still there? Hey, Kenzie. I think Ralph may have already signed, but I conversated without any loss. And yeah, my head. I heard him all the way from the very beginning. So maybe did you find. What, hiccups? Yeah, I rebooted my. My Internet here at the house and things seeming to be okay. How annoying. But, well, considering the benefits of this, you know, no biggie. All right, switch back over to local. Just want to let you know that if you're hollering or Ralph probably won't hear you. I think he's out of his car by now. Seven three. Good morning. Mobile from on 101 here. All right, Mike, you take care. Talk to you later. N6k Eddie, hear that little syllable that's underneath me? I think I figured out what that was. There's a CO channel box out there in the Central Valley. I think it's up on San Francisco. And they're using it in the morning. There's a couple of their stations that actually tickle the input to 19. That's what we're hearing when I EMP. Oh, well, I do have broadcastify here in the background. That's how I knew my. My Internet was not good. Yeah, you're hearing yourself. You could be hearing yourself there in the background. In my background. No, it was right under my signal. Yeah, Tom and I had discussed it previously and he thought it's the loop back from the link. Just a syllable slipping through. I go, yeah, yeah, but it doesn't do it all the time. If that was it, it would do it all the time. And it doesn't. I said, coincidentally, there's a couple of hot spots out here on Bayshore where I can hear the other machine out there in the Central Valley and I can hear people talking on it after this wind drops. So, yeah, somebody must figure out and some good power and mobile out there to not really compete. But he's definitely there. There he was again. Oh, okay. Yeah, I don't hear it on my end. All right there. M. Yeah, hopefully they'll get that figured out. Okay, I will talk to you later. Good to hear you. Yeah. The only way to really nail it down is to put the actual repeater and carrier squash and be at the other stage case. And he's teeing it up. But details. Right. No big deal. All right, back to local. See you, Ken. WK6JKV.

Speaker A: What's going on, mike? Kn6mgk. Oh, took.
Speaker B: Took the doggie for a walk. Saw a few deer and snow over on Jasabali and got a lot of cell phone signal. Where I go on that walk, there's a lot of cell phone signal. Came back here and took care of a couple other chores and getting ready to make breakfast. Had a good net this morning. Had a guy come in from Victoria, Victoria island, bc, into that net. So that was kind of cool. Five watts. Nobody else could hear him. I don't have Internet, so I was hearing him direct only and fixed grt. What's going on?
Speaker A: Well, I don't know if you ever took care of your tooth problem, but I seem to have developed one. So I made an appointment with the dentist at noon today, so we'll see. Anyway, I've had some pain in my upper molar area. Wife says she thinks I've got a cavity there, so gotta get that taken care of. That's where I'm at.
Speaker B: Well, I do have a way to take care of infection, which is what you have if you have pain. Most likely have an infection. It's always good to take care of the infections before you ever make it to the dentist. But I've got a procedure that really works well, involves some 20% mouthwash and some other procedures I do. And yeah, I got. I got one thing from. I found out some information on these. Well, I'll pass it back before I talk. Change the subject. But, Neil, what do you think of that?
Speaker A: I don't know. Kind of cleaned up around the tooth and stuff yesterday. Pretty good, you know, with,
Speaker B: you know,
Speaker A: basically a pressure washer for the teeth that my wife has. She looked in there and she could see kind of where she thinks I have a cavity at the root, so. So I don't think. Yeah, I mean, the infection's a problem, you know, but that's not gonna. Just taking care of that isn't gonna affect the cavity, so. So that's why tennis Don appointment seems to be better today. The pain, anyway, but. Anyway, yeah, go ahead and change the subject. That's fine.
Speaker B: Well, you can have pain and infection without even having a cavity, and you can have a cavity without any pain. And you're right, you pretty much have to get in there and get it taken care of or that tooth will go away. Tooth will go away if the cavity is visible. So.

Speaker A: Sorry about that. I took the radio out of the charging thing and this battery in this Olinko is gone. I got to put that on my list and get another battery for it.
Speaker B: Yep. Well, yeah, all I got was dead air and I tried to key up and I couldn't get anything, so I just left it. Oh, I figured. Well, not sure what happened there.
Speaker A: Yeah, I was just saying that I had a cavity on a middle. It's a middle. Top tooth, the middle of my mouth, front tooth. My teeth are. I inherited a very crazy mouth and way, way too many teeth. And my mom had a dentist take out 13 teeth when I was about 10 years old and. And more teeth still came in and so, yeah, they're all crooked and everything. It's a real mess. And I don't know, I don't think I'll probably ever spend a thousands and thousands dollars to get a great smile, but. Oh, well.
Speaker B: Yeah, well, at that point I wouldn't be concerned about the smile. I don't know, that's the way they sell things a lot. But I'd just be, you know, content with healthy teeth and gums as healthy as possible. I don't care if they're crooked or whatever. But yeah, we spent quite a bit of money on my mouth and it still ain't perfect. And it had nothing to do with being a smile. But anyway, at some point I just gave up and said, I'm done. And they took all the orthodontia stuff off there and everything. I just living this way for the rest of my life and that's fine. So it is a lot better than it was. Dentists are important for sure. Generally speaking, over the last decade, I haven't had too many issues, but I have been going to the dentist quite regular twice a year. And recently it stopped for about a year now. And now I'm going to have problems, so I'm going to have to go back to going back to twice a year, I guess. KN6MTK.
Speaker A: Yeah, well, I, you know, as I said, you know, cavities are completely different than infections. They're not one in the same. I don't know if they even have much of a relationship. You can have infections without cavities and cavities without infection. It's just they're two different, very different things. And what I found, what I found out was the thing to do, like I say, is to use this mouthwash, but not just on your teeth. Use it on whatever you're gonna put in your. When you care for your Teeth, whatever you're gonna put in your mouth. Toothbrushes. I use this kind of like tiny little. It's a tiny little brush I use in between my teeth. And the ones that aren't jammed together, the ones that are jammed together, I can't even get flossed in between them. And I use that 20% alcohol on all these different things. And then I, After I'm finished brushing with my toothbrush, I take a swig of that same alcohol and. And swirl it around. So. And that's made all the difference in the world. I haven't had any. I've had one infection. You might remember. It was maybe six months or a year ago. I did lose. Like I said, I lost one tooth to a cavity. And like I say, once you. If you have a cavity that wasn't discovered by a dentist, your tooth is probably going to be kind very quickly. It's just amazing how cavities work. They're completely different, though, from. From completely different from infections. So. But, you know, they talk about fluoride. I believe in fluoride. I don't think my water here has fluoride, and I think that has helped my teeth since the day when I got here.
Speaker B: Yeah, well, I don't believe in fluoridated water, but fluoride toothpaste is another deal. I haven't been using it before I had toothpaste in quite some time, but I have used it and I think my wife's still using some. She has more of the dental issues than I do. But anyway, yeah, but I don't want to consume the fluoride, you know, but having it in your mouth and swishing it around with toothpaste and then spitting it back out, that's a whole nother thing than consuming it. And that's my opinion on the matter.
Speaker A: I use cheap mouthwash. The primary ingredient that's helping me in it is the 20% alcohol I've had. I've by mistake purchased mouthwash that didn't have alcohol in it. And I had an infection. And I'm going, well, what's going on? I looked at my mouthwash and, wow, this doesn't have the alcohol level that I. The 20% alcohol level that I need. You can have mouthwash and it'll say alcohol on it and might even have just 1%. You don't know what it's got. But if it says 20%, it reaches a special level where they have to say exactly how much it's got. I guess there's some kind of regulation There. But yeah, fluoride. I would love to see it in all mouthwash. I don't think it's there. I do see it in toothbrush and toothpaste. But yeah, teeth have always been a problem for me since I was a very young child and they knew I was going to have a problem with crooked teeth and. Jordan.
Speaker B: Okay, so let's move on. What was the other subject you were going to talk about?
Speaker A: Oh, let's see. Well, I forget what it was, but I was gonna say. I was thinking about saying, and I didn't mention that I'm Gonna have a 20 watt ICOM on the air pretty quick here. An IC22S, which is one of the radios that One of the YouTube channels guys was talking about. I don't know if you saw that he had an IC ICOM 22s and he. He kind of see it. The what? When they come direct from icom, they have this matrix board of diodes that caillou figure out your frequency. Well, then they, as the time went on, they added these rotary encoders and so forth and so on. And you build a diode matrix that was changed with the rotary switch, encoder switch. So they were able to come up with a way where you could actually turn the dial and change your frequency. What a concept. That's how old this radio is. But it's a great radio. And if all I need to do is put it on this frequency, I'll be happy with it. For. For that purpose only.
Speaker B: All right. Yeah, I think I'm just taking a look at that. That didn't pop up right away. It was interesting. But I remember Clarence talking about different kenwoods and different radios that needed encoders and stuff like that on them. I have several of these kind of radios sitting around here right now. A couple of them. They're like 2 meter only and. But I haven't messed with them. I got them at that gears auction when they were going to throw them all away, so I snagged them up and just put them in a pile here. So. Haven't ever had time to mess with them. Just like I don't have time to mess with a lot of things, but figured, oh, maybe one day I'll get to it, you know.
Speaker A: Well, if it's a radio for a dedicated frequency like this repeater, then, you know, you can hear. Usually have. And they. And they do have. I believe that it does have Pl sub audible atcss. I believe it has that. So I forget how you. How you program that though. But I've gotta look at the data on that radio and make it work. And it should have great modulation. I used it. The last time I used it was I built myself a. I got. I was out on the Trinity river taking care of this ranch. I lived at the ranch and you know like a third childhood kind of a thing. It was in the middle of the. No of nowhere. 70 acres right in the middle of the national forest with a. A road that went from the river about a mile before it got to the ranch. And it was gorgeous. It was just beautiful. A 10 acre meadow, 70 acre ranch, all the wood I could ever use. And it had a cabin and a big beautiful house. But the big beautiful house was summertime only. The cabin was very, very well insulated. Had a great wood stove in it. So I lived in the cabin. And yeah, the cabin had a shower and heater. I heated the water with propane I believe. And yeah, it was, it had everything I needed the wood stove heated, you know, gave me the perfect temperatures in the, in the thing. He'd open up the door at night and there'd be a whole ton of deer standing right outside. I've done that because my dog would let me know they were out there. So I'd open it up and whoa, there they were right in my face. And yeah, lots of bears over there.
Speaker B: There too. Okay, well, so I guess I'll bring up the next subject. I haven't talked to you in a couple days and you said you would probably have the PI 400 going because you had some help. How's that going?
Speaker A: Well, what I need to do, it hasn't arrived. It's going to arrive in the mail from the, from Arizona pretty quick here. And the last time this fellow helped me out I actually had more Internet than I have now. Now I have nothing except for the cell phone. And the cell phone I have to go outside. Although I see there's two bars on my phone right now. That's interesting but. And I'm right in there shack here. So that's very interesting anyway and you know I can do that hot spot but I don't know how it would be for download files. So yeah, he's gonna help me and get. Give me the same thing I had before which was FDA and that suite ft, DIGI and jsa. He wants me to use FT rig. I don't really care for FT Rig, but we'll see. And yeah, it'll have all that stuff in it and it'll. I'll plug it right into the 5,400 and be on my way if things go right.
Speaker B: Okay, but you still won't have any Internet, right?
Speaker A: Well, you don't need Internet for JS8 or FT8 or FT Digi. You just, you don't get a. A thing that puts you on PSK Reporter and all that. You don't have that, although you can, you can show up there with all those different modes. You can show up there because there's stations out there that are sweeping the band and uploading to PSK Reporter. But yeah, no, you don't need Internet to do any of that.
Speaker B: Well, you do for FP8 and Fldigi. Yeah, JS8, you have your methods, but yeah, I'd be surprised if you can get FLDIGI to work without some sort of Internet for timing.
Speaker A: No, I've tried to show you how to do timing without the Internet and I think I'm gonna have to give up. But yeah, you don't, you don't need Internet to time.
Speaker B: Well, I'll wait and see when you get on FT8 then. Yeah, you do. So not for JS8. I know that you can, you can hit time now or you can even do time by other decodes, right? I know that. I know you use WWV and that's all fine, but you can't transpose that For Fldigi or FT8, best of my knowledge, without using scripts and things like that that some folks use. But I don't know how to do that either. So anyway, yeah, some sort of TPS timing or something has to be employed. But yeah, we'll see, we'll see. When you get, when you get that in and get it running.
Speaker A: Well, you know, I, I don't do FT8, but I was reading about the technology that's being used in the program and what they're doing. You know that automated system that's used by. For JS8 that I won't use because I don't care for it, but because it relies on other stations to time your station. But if you don't have any other way, and you don't have the features that are in JSA that make it possible to time yourself perfectly without with just a signal from WWV, then both JS8 and FT8, you use that automated timing procedure that takes time from other stations and incorporates it into your station. And I was reading about how they did it. It was quite complex on FT8, but you don't have to know how it works. You just do it. And I think MT8 will use it without you asking it to confuse it. I think it's just built in, it just does it all the time. So if you're wondering how people can run FTA without any Internet, I believe that's how it's being done. For timing, anyway. Now with jc, it's much quicker to do do the WWV procedure, which is the first option under the automated one. Use the word now. I think that the important word was the word now in the description, but it's the first, the first option. And yeah, if you do that, then you're good to go. FT8 digi, I mean, I'm sorry, FT digi does not use timing. And I've been on the nets, use the net, you know, the Humboldt county net that uses FT Digi and check in and all that time, all that kind of thing. And the minute I turn it on, it starts decoding immediately. And there's a procedure where you click on this one box and it doesn't matter what mode the guy is using, if he sends out this one particular signal before he starts his transmission, it switches you to that mode. So it's an automated thing that switches the mode for you. It might even work for cw.

Speaker A: Well, I don't. Yeah, I don't have enough experience in FL digi by any stretch to know, but I would have figured it uses some form of timing, but evidently it doesn't, so that's good. But I know that FT8 is pretty dependent on it, so. And that's a mode that you don't use. But anyway, probably lots of other people do being how I could be on FT8 for about five minutes and already see my propagation, you know, to make a good enough estimation on my. On my antenna, which is pretty good anyway. Yeah, well, looking forward to you getting that going. So I'll check back with you in a few more days and see if you see if you've gotten that in. I don't know, I mean that might go to a coffee shop or something and download what I need off of their WI fi
Speaker B: like over here at
Speaker A: Panera and stuff like that when you go to. Maybe when you go to town, you know, they all offer like a. You know, even Starbucks usually has a guest WI fi. So a lot of the ham radio clubs meet at like a breakfast location or a coffee shop like that. Kind of fun to get involved with them too. But anyway, that sounds interesting. How did you lose the. The other SD card that you had for the 400 did somehow just get corrupted?
Speaker B: Yeah, that was. Oh, that was what I was gonna mention. I found out some information about that. A guy got on and maybe it was a groups I O or something like that where he was discussing all the different modes of saving data that we've used for the, through the, through the years and which ones will fail because of a thing called fade, bit fade where they, they begin to, you know, lose bits and, and stuff. And what he claims is that the hard drives have the least bit fade of all of the data storage devices other than maybe a CD rom, you know, cd, CD rom. My experience with them is if you keep them clean and stuff, they're like a, like a CD audio disc or something like that. It's going to work great forever. But of the, of the story, digital story stuff that we write and read as, as time has progressed it has gotten worse, worse and worse. And the micro SD cards are among the worst of all. So they have a, the worst bit fade. They lose bits and bits and of the data as they, as it goes along. SD, SD ROM, same thing. You know, the digital disks, if you will, that are in our computers now. The otherwise known. I believe it's an SD rock. They're, they're right up There with the bit fade of the Micro SD cards, but not as bad. In other words, there's a generational thing where the generation of the Micro SD which is the latest, is the worst. And then as you go back in time, they get better and better. So. Wow. Very interesting stuff. I mean, if a person were able to write to a CD ROM like we always used to, you would have a hard copy that would never go away. But the problem, the reason I lost it on my Windows machine had nothing to do with that. What it was was Microsoft screwing up. As you know, as you might have heard, the owner of Microsoft is well known for screwing up. Lately he's making big news.
Speaker A: Well, I think he's on the right path now. Now that he's accepted and come forth with some of that information. I think he's still probably leaving out the portion he doesn't want people to believe, you know, being involved with that other guy that hung himself. So anyway, yeah, amongst others that are doing depositions today on that interested to find out some of that information that comes out. But anyway, seems that anyone that was a. Involved with that guy should be kind of ashamed of himself. KN6NGK.
Speaker B: Yeah, definitely. I mean, you'd have to be looking, you'd have to cover your eyes in order to be anywhere around him. From what I'm. From what I understand, you can't play dumb with that guy. Anyway, yeah, as far as you know, apparently that that guy Epstein reached out to people who had money. Whether he reached out to offer them bad things or, or whatever is not the point. He was more interested. The primary that he was interested in was the money and he would use any, as, you know, any way he could to get it. So he was a criminal in more ways than one. And so anyway, yeah, he's a bad guy and a lot of people are going to show up in his files that were not bad people because of the way this guy reached out. Try to input trees as well. I don't know what he was offering them. Maybe opportunities to invest or who knows, I don't know. Anyway, I know I've heard rumors of some of the bad things that happened in Mar? A Lago with, with respect to Epstein and some other people, you know, but who knows? I don't want to go there. It's too complicated. They'll make movies for the rest of our lives about it. Anyway, yeah, regarding FT50, if you look at the screen, when you bring it up, it doesn't matter what mode you're in, if you look at your screen and you look at the top right corner, it says rx. It has these little boxes. One of them says rx, one of them says tx and one of them says something else. I don't know, what if you click on the one that says rx. Then if you get somebody that is an accomplished FT Digi user that sends out these special codes, one of the special code that he's sending out is recognized by your FT Digi and, and switches your mode and speed. Because that's the biggest problem with FT Digi. I remember using it before, I knew that. And it has way too many modes and way too many speeds. So there's no way you can run it without knowing exactly what mode that somebody's transmitting or having. That thing, that RX thing, little box, it's an R, says rx. Upper right hand corner rx. Click that. And if somebody's sending these special codes all of a sudden, you'll pick them up and it'll tell you what. If you know where to look, it'll tell you what. Motor Dare you.
Speaker A: All right, well, I'm going to go ahead and let you go for now. I wanted to respond to you putting out your call. Everything's going okay here. Sun's out, birds. Birds seem pretty happy, so that's good. My birthday is second Saturday, so I'm supposed to be meeting my mom today. South there, maybe Yuba City. But I do have that dental appointment first, so gotta take care of that. So that's where we're at. And yeah, we'll give a chat with you maybe in a, in a couple days or so. I hear you again, I'll say 73 KN 6 MGK.
Speaker B: Okay, real quick, it's up to 60 here. Batteries are already charged up to full voltage and what was the one thing? And yeah, looking forward to getting on these digital modes so we can talk more about what's going on. Don't expect you to ever be interested in FT Digi, but if you were, it's a heck of a lot easier now that I've learned how to do that one little secret trick, you know, makes all the difference in the world. All right, have fun with, with mom and Enjoy your birthday. N6GRG.

The National Weather Service has cleared all alerts for this area.

Today.

D.

I heard somebody in there. But you're super scratchy and six kn. Yeah, I hear a voice in there. But you're not making it. Nope, you're not making it. All I heard was over. You're not making it. Fully depressed for transmission. Yeah, I'm sorry, I heard an M6, but that was about it. You'll need to up your power or grab a different repeater or something. I'll be clear and listening N6KN. Well, I heard him. A little noisy, but I copied you. GSO or something like that. Greg hampton, cso in fred mill. Yes, affirmative. And good afternoon. Yeah, the audio is on the low side, you know, plus add in a little bit of noise and snap, crackle, pop and what have you. So it's not as good as it could be or should be, but I do copy you. Yeah, that guy's kind of far away. He's over in Columbia, so he's got a little bit of half loss on him. No, I don't actually. You know that where the Fresno County Sheriff's department is. 615 First street or not sure if it's First street or Shaw, but that's a big three story building. So that was probably watching a lot of my 60s. Well, I haven't frequented that place in a long time since, you know, I last got locked up down there. So I don't quite remember where it's at, but actually no, I have no idea where it's at. But I'll take your word for it. And yeah, you just want a clear path to the west and anyway you improve things. So you are making it. Fortunately, I've just found another shadow here again. So I hear a lot of static, so I'll try again here in about. Okay, copy that. Mostly. All right, we'll talk to you later. And hello, Ken, how are you? I am fine. I was going to send you a, a message or email or a text or something regarding Superline. Would you and Jeff be interested in doing a Superman familiarization type of thing or you think you guys are good? Oh, you mean like a meet and greet, a dog and pony show, something like that? Well, I think, you know, I've got some familiarity, he's got more familiarity, but I think it's one of those things where we could probably use as much as we can get for sure. So I am, I am up for it. So maybe if you want to just send out a, probably an email, it'll be easiest to us and then we can find a good time to do it or whatever. All Right. Well, just so you know, you. You are blessed with Supermon 8 Plus and nobody on this planet has that except for. K6LNK and Carla. So yeah, I thought we would. Maybe we could meet up and do a. Do something and I could show you some of the cool stuff that Paul is working on with Superman. Eat plus. Sounds pretty nifty. I think maybe we all ought to get together for coffee at the local Starbucks or something. What do you think? I live in Colombia. You think Starbucks has better coffee than I do? Of course not. Why do you think I said that? And I don't even know if you guys got a Starbucks over there. I mean, heck, that's. They claim to purchase most of their coffee from I think. I don't know. But do they actually have those over there? Because that's, you know, Jeff's home. Home away from home. That's ridiculous. No, no Starbucks here. Every. Every breakfast restaurant here that serves coffee is a Starbucks. Just not using the Starbucks name. And probably a much better coffee. If it was going to be called anything, it would be called a Juan Valdez. And there are Juan. Juan Valdez. Facilities. Kind of like a Starbucks, but as you can imagine, a whole lot cheaper. Yeah, I'm probably better. That was a good campaign there. Marketing campaign for quite a while. Good old Juan. I bet he didn't get much money at all. But anyhow, so 8plus, it wouldn't happen to be like 8plus, would it? Or something like that? Nope, it's just eight plus. The, the admin hub and the 750 hub are both eight plus and there is nobody anywhere using eight plus. Oh, wait a minute. The Silent Key W2HR hub out of the Grants Pass, that is also using 8plus. So yeah, there are three of you using 8plus and yeah, it's pretty good. So anyways, maybe we can all meet up and do a pow wow over Superman. All right. Yeah, maybe we can touch base on the DTMF scenario too. I looked at a couple of those things late last night of half asleep. But those were all posts too, you know, by a number. Quite a number of years. So there's got to be. Gotta be something. I mean, jeez. But anyhow, we can always discuss it and see where we're at with it and so on and so forth. But if I need to do more poking around, I think I have one or two more contacts that you could probably hit up if we keep running out of options or whatever. And six candy. Yeah, don't beat yourself up over this. This is just a project that I'm kind of tinkering around with. I'm kind of already a little bit beyond all of that. I think I have all of the. I think I have all of the info I need, including the. Well, I don't know, I could be wrong. It could be something out there that I'm missing. But I do believe that once we have access to the other supermogs at the other sites and certainly access to the upcoming sites, that we can make this thing work properly. So yeah, time will tell. And yeah, but that info is good information. I kind of did look into it. Maybe it looks like I've already. I've already made some cop stuff that, that will work for us. We just need to. We just need access to the other Superman. Okay, well, I think it would definitely be a good thing to talk and just get the three of us on the same page because you know, what we do need to do is be able to do live controlling and command of stuff and not have to rely on pre built or pre saved macros or files that regurgitate stuff. There's just way too many variables out there that we might need to do it on a moment's notice. So knowing that, you know, then maybe we can compare notes and see which, which route you're going and if it'll work or not and so on and so forth. So anyhow, but keep that in the back of your head there. I'm. I'm where I need to be. I need to jump out and pretend to do some work again. So they keep sending these paychecks and I keep cashing them and I'm feeling kind of guilty, so I think, you know. All right, well, when you're all done with that, go home and pretend to be whatever you are at home. Okay? Yeah. And again, keep in mind, I'm just. These are just things I'm playing around with, trying to make things easier with this all star stuff. So hopefully it works out and you and the crew as it may be are happy with it and can utilize it. So yeah, no good. Big deal. Okay, Tom, talk to you later and I will send you an email. I'll. I'll do that later. Later this evening. N6KN. All right, well, that kind of sounds like a threat to me, but we'll let it go with that. All right, have a good one. Talk to you later. And 6m the to somewhere above Castro Valley, California, USA.

Ko 6 fpj mark in san bruno mobile system 19.

And 7t Andy. Las vegas, I heard you out there. This is ko6sdk 20 miles south of san francisco here, town called millbrae. Well, good afternoon and here's Ralph. Vegas obviously is running between offices. Yeah, beautiful day out here. It's warmed up quite a bit. It's actually 81 degrees so it seems like spring is finally here. I think it's going out there. Yeah. Roger Ralph. Good to hear it's warming up. Yeah, it's warming up over here too. We were cold for a while. I'm on the peninsula here so usually, you know, we. Well all last week were like 50s, 60s. Now we're up till 73 here the car says. Yeah, so it's good that I guess early spring but. Yeah. Oh really foggy this morning too. The whole Bay Area from what I heard on the news there. Over. Yeah, very good. It's been an interesting season, that's for sure. A week or two ago we had a big snowstorm move in, dump feet of snow at our mountaintops. A couple of our repeater sites are not accessible which is unfortunate because we've got to get up there and fix a couple of radios. But this keeps up, maybe another two, three weeks we can get up there and get some stuff fixed. I'm heading down to Yuma tomorrow for the hamvention down there in Yuma, Arizona. Checking the weather forecast. It's going to be in the mid-90s on Saturday so I have to pack my sunscreen and my shorts but I'm looking forward to getting down there and seeing seeing what they got. Got my eye on that new Kenwood analog D star tri bander. I got a 222 meter, 22440 Tri Bander coming out. That's supposed to be the catch. Meow. So I'm not sure if it's actually released yet. I know they've been taking pre orders so maybe I can get my eyeballs on that one. Yeah, Roger Ralph, I heard about that one. The Kenwood was supposed to be the tri bander and digital. That's nice. I even was looking forward to the icom. ICOM supposed to be coming out with a dual band and digital. So that's almost the same time. There's. I've seen pre orders for that also so pretty exciting for sure. I'm still trying to hold off. I know they took February, maybe March so I'm trying to buy a new mobile here for the car and yeah, I'm just like trying not to buy something that's older and and waiting for those to come out. They're over a 06 Fej. Yeah, I've got a. I got an ICOM dstar dual band right here in the truck. I'm not using it right now but that's a 2 meter 440D star analog and I got an IC7100 at the house. That's 80 meters to no, not 26. Yeah, 160 meters. The 440 does Dstar also. But I like the Kenwood. I like the way Kenwood does the audio processing on dstar. I've got a little Kenwood ht. It's got the number of it and the audio quality on dstar is really good. They spend a lot of time on the baseband processing so that's why I'm kind of looking forward to potentially seeing what they got. Maybe take this icon DSTAR I got here in the Jeep and putting it on ebay or amp swapper or something like that. Other than that. Yeah, like I said, looking forward to getting out of here for a little bit. So what do you do back in Cali? What do you do for a living? Yeah, roger on that. Yeah the little Kenwood HT they have is awesome radio too from what I hear that I forget the model number but for sure that's a nice. I always hear good things about it. I'm stay at home dad now retired, 30 years in management retail there Ralph. So how about yourself? Over. Give the link. Submitted to drop M7TND Las Vegas. Yeah I've got the Kenwood. It's a DH74 Alpha. I've got that try it's a tri band HT2 22440 analog Dstar APRs and all that stuff. GPS built into it. It's a nice radio. Love that radio. That's why I say I like audio, the audio process from Kenwood so much. I work for defense contractor. We do work company called JT4. We do work for the Air Force Space Force and a little bit of work for the Navy and I work on the Air Force Air Force Base Force side between here Las Vegas and Colorado Springs link up. That keeps me pretty occupied. Ko6fej. Yeah, roger there Ralph. Nice career there. That's awesome. We'll see what happens. The Middle east, they're probably going to need all that technology we have. Hopefully nothing happens for sure. Yeah man, great time for radios, that's for sure. That Mark 2 that ICOM has too is pretty, pretty cool from what I hear. So trying to hold out for everything. Oh man, I'm telling you, I'm mobile right now. I don't know if I mentioned it on the peninsula here, so hopefully the signal is getting out. Good Ko6fek. Yeah, no, you're fine. We got some popcorn. That's just due to the link, nothing to do with the talkback radio. Just the way some of the links are on the Cali side of the system. But no, you're, you're fine. So that Mark two, is that the, the new DSTAR FM radio that you were talking about earlier? There's two radios, they, they came out with a 73 mark 2, the second version, a newer version there for that HF rig that's been out for a few months I think. And now they're coming out with the 2 meter 440 any day now, I guess. So I'm looking forward to that. And then the Kenwood of course. So yeah, man, there's a lot going on for sure. They make those. Was it a linkos? I don't know if I'm saying it right, but there's a lot of radios coming out with nasty west and leave. So yeah, it's a good time right now for sure. Yeah. HAM radio operator and my daughter's talking back there. Yeah, I heard her. Yeah, the mark. I know you're talking about another 300. I've got the, I got the 7610 ICOM. I love that radio. I had a full SDR unit. That's a beautiful, beautiful box. Pretty much does everything I throw at it. Oh, I like using the digital. I do some FTA every now and again, mainly sideband. But I like the fta, it just plugs directly into the computer. You don't have to have any kind of a converter, just USB right into the thing. Does audio and all the CAT controls and everything. But I like the ICOM HF side. On the uhf, vhf, I use mainly Motorola Commercial, which is what I'm using right now. But on the HF side I definitely like the icom. A matter of preference. I'm just used to the gui, I guess. Okay, the 6th FeJ. Yeah. Ralph H HF. I run a Yaesu 710 on HF and I've had good luck with that. Yeah, the icon's definitely top of the list. Also I'm okay with HF right now. So I'm just trying to pull the trigger on the, on the radio in the car here. But I got a couple of handhelds. I just got a anytone168 for the, for the HP for DMR and I'm loving that that's a good little starter cheap radio like 140 bucks running it to a little mobile antenna right now. So I got on DMR with a friend here and I like DMR. Before that I got on DStar and DStar was pretty cool too. Not many repeaters where I live but DMR has a lot more. But either way, I don't know. Have you tried those? Yeah, both actually. We've got a DMR stack on one of our mountain tops that I maintain. Not DMR dstar stack on one of the mountaintops that I maintain. We got a. We got a high band, got a high band node, we got a UHF, we got a 1.2 gig data, 1.2 gig voice and I like about Dstar is it's more ham friendly I'll use that term I guess right where you can just put a call sign in and it finds you does call sign routing and stuff like that. So I use that. Yeah we've also got DMR on our network we got, we got a DStar, a DMR mixing them up I'm sorry DMR talk group that we bring into the to our nets on Wednesday we run a system wide net we disconnect from Carlos. We don't tie up the entire system so we just have our Nevada network up and we do that mode. But yeah, I've got. Matter of fact the radio I'm talking on right now is a kenwood or Motorola 5550 which is UHF analog and DMR radio and so I've got those modes too played around a little bit with YAESU system Fusion but you know there's so many doggone modes now I'm using a Shark RF that does transcoding so I can go between different modes just pick up a DMR radio talking to dstar or talking to Fusion and vice versa and there's a program I use also on my phone called TV Switch which will let you use your phone to connect to not only All Star but all those digital remotes also. So that's kind of cool. Fix Fej yeah hear great things about the open spot 4. A couple of my friends have them and they playing with them. I know they got them on dstar, they're still trying to get it on DMR last time I heard. I hear that's the way to go but I don't know. I like my radios so far so this anytone is trying out DMR and yeah the dstar is definitely more user friendly I would think I figured that on my own the DMR I expected I watched I watched a few videos and I said no way I need some real help so a friend of mine that helped me out with that but I I'm. I actually have an Apple too so you have to get a Windows machine you probably know to to EMR so yeah I did get a new machine there a new computer and I'm gonna try and program it just hope I don't brick the any dark if I do so. Yeah a couple of my friends have any tones and they. They like them I've never used them back in the day I used a high Terra for a while not just using Motorola's but yeah I'm an Apple guy myself so I know what you're talking about you either have to run parallels to emulate Windows or do boot camp if you run the old intel chip versus the silhouette Apple silicone But yeah you need to unfortunately run Windows to do the programming on the DMR Radius but you know you get a Windows PC for damn cheap anymore I got a. I got a refurbished Dell it's kind of like a Dell version of a Surface so it's kind of like a tablet but it has the magnetic keyboard that snaps in place works really well and I got the damn thing from Dell direct that a refurb for like $320 or something like that with the keyboard Windows 11 blah blah blah and I use that to run some of my Nano VNA software stuff I use on the hilltops to work on radios all the programming software for my Motorola radios and things of that nature I just have it on that thing so that worked out really well for. Yeah Roger on that those Motorolas too that's my friend that programmed the Genicone is definitely into Motorolas swears by them they look like they're well built for sure and I think they're used in the professional areas also fire stuff like that I believe so yeah it's good for them I guess it's good for us yeah that's DMR I think is the way to go where I live for sure but yeah hopefully these star YAESU fusion dude there's that I was a YA fan but I heard that there's not a lot of repeaters in the San Francisco Bay here so why I put a dmr let's see sooner or later I'll probably Try that too. There's so many different options out there for digital A06 SJ. Yeah, definitely. That's why I just decided to use the open spots and the software, you know, the windows. Although, I'm sorry, the DV switched offering stuff like that to go with all the different modes. You can go broke buying radios, right? Which one do you grab to talk on? To talk to who? So that's why some of this transcoding stuff's cool. Yeah. And Motorola doesn't make ham gear. They make just strictly commercial, which is what I'm using. But yeah, they're great radios. They're exceptionally tight front end, so you have intermodulation products and distortion and great audio processing, blah, blah, blah. But you definitely pay for it. You know, you're not going to get a. You're going to pay $800 or more for a good quality Motorola commercial radio, either a mobile or an ht. But saw what you're after.
