2m Simplex (146.520 MHz) recordings for 2026-03-11

Maybe we could make j key it up. This morning n6ntm 51 degrees in magalia this morning n6ntm.

Oh, I know it. Anyway, I've already learned that you don't say anything that's controversial because these guys are just waiting. You can almost see their teeth.

Speaker A: So what do you got to do? You got to get out there and unhook it. I always do that. Anyway, that's how you stop
Speaker B: tail drag. Especially when you're going in uneven driveways and stuff. I always angle it in there. Man, that Maddox is something else. It automatically Bluetooth to the tablet, Jake. And it's got. It's got that service to deal. Not only it'll tell you. Not only will it tell you what part you need for whatever codes that you got, it'll give you the part numbers and. And where to get them and. And it also has instruction manuals on how to install it. Unbelievable. Real time graphs over to my iPad.
Speaker A: So cool. Yes. Yeah. 259 at
Speaker B: Harbor Freight. I figure the tax on top of that, it's close to 300, so. Yeah. And I got it for $199 and
Speaker A: $15 shipping. Oh, it works good. But it.
Speaker B: But it transfers everything automatically. You've seen that dongle for $54 that you can buy for the lesser models. It's already built into that 16.

Speaker A: And we watch that keep your daydream job show. And here, here you got a hundred and twenty five hundred and fifty thousand dollar Airstream because they got the, they got the biggest, baddest one and you can hear it going in and out of driveways and while they're backing up and stuff and it's going
Speaker B: right
Speaker A: because all those non greased shackles and leaf spring connections, ridiculous.

Speaker A: Yeah. There's other things you can put on there besides grease. Like that. Pam. Frying pan. I'm sure. I'm sure there's something you can do so you don't have to worry about it. You know, you can always. You can always wrap Saran Wrap around it on the side you work from mostly, but you just got to be careful. Yeah. I don't like the weight of that whole damn thing. And I. I don't know. You know, I'm gonna try it. If next time we run up to. Or the next short trip we take, I'll. I'll put that thing on. Plus the aluminum hitch. I can already see the wear marks. That's the biggest scam right there. If they made a metal one that had a place for the bars, that had the scale, that would be tall cotton. But I seen one down at Ken's, Hitch and Wells. They don't call it that anymore, but. And you should have seen the wear on the part you slide into the truck. I ain't kidding you. It had to be an eighth an inch deep. Maybe that guy rode around with it. Nothing connected to it. But, you know, aluminum wears way too fast to be using it
Speaker B: for a receiver. Hitch. Plus. Anyway, once you figure out the weight of your trailer, what do you need it for?

Speaker A: Right. I wouldn't either, but I mean, just to see the difference. Yeah, I'm sure we're going to be. Well, I was pretty disappointed. I would have been going down to Chico. Probably wouldn't notice a lot of difference on the short ride, but at least he'd know I just was telling you on the radio. Anyway, discount or quality tire down there didn't have any rims for that. And they're not that expensive, actually. I just don't like the little circles or the spokes, the terrain wheels, the little chrome spokes for steel wheels. And it would have been nice to have aluminum rims. So I'm still looking. I went to that tire place up here. They didn't have any rims. I told you everything that went on with that guy right there. I told him. I patted him on the back and said, don't worry about it. Enjoy your day. When he told
Speaker B: me he was confused about trailer rims. Well, see, if quality
Speaker A: tire had a bunch, they would probably wouldn't work because the modern rims on today's cars today, which is what they have the most of, because they come from junkyards. And they did tell me to go over to the junkyard. They're flat on the front and the offset is all on the inside. And trailers can't handle.
Speaker B: Handle
Speaker A: that style of rim. It's got to be almost centered for a trailer.

Well, we watched a big screen last night. Jay, that is phenomenal. I still can't get over it.

Probably going to be slight breeze like there has been on and off for the last week. And it isn't. It isn't any kind of a contest or nothing. It's just a regular day on the radio.

Speaker A: Yeah, that when they. They. They give you access to something, they want to know it's being used. You know, that's part of what makes it worth it for them to
Speaker B: offer such a thing. Holy
Speaker A: mackerel. Wow. It still says 12.4, but. Oh, 12.6. I see 12 volts even when I key up. I forgot to turn a charger on this morning.

Oh, yeah. Completely gone with the VC tune. Less than a. Less than a quarter inch or half inch on the big knob and it's down to one S unit. Need to get one of those breakers for the. For the hot tub. I wasn't getting any voltage to the left side of the. You know, I run 222 different circuits to the left and right side for the theater sound. And I did, actually. Lori bought the cable for 129 bucks, but we got it for 109 because they had an open box one. It's got the optic cable built into the HDMI. 50ft. It was the lowest footage they had, but I need at least 30 to go down underneath and back to the other end of the front room and back up and in. But anyway, now we got. Now we got this sound. The big screen and the theater sound. Oh, boy. Well, that little 40 watt amplifier and the nebula, you know, I mean, you know, it's right there now. Now we got. It doesn't support atmos, so I can't run all the speakers, you know, but I can run enough that it makes a big difference. 5.2 or something. Like, I only see one subwoofer out. I did find the bass and the triple control in the nebula under custom sound. That's all it gives you, though. But it makes a difference. The screen covers the sound bar for Voice 5 clip speakers. But you can still hear it. If I do ever get a bigger screen, because I can see now that 180 inch will fit perfectly in here and it will be damn near to the floor and another foot and a half or two feet wider. If I did. If I did get another screen, I would definitely opt for the one that lets the sound come through. That'd be cool. I'll probably never do that, Jay. Them screens started about three grand. And guess what? They never, ever sent a pickup slip for the other screen that's in the garage that you pull down. It's the same as the one I got. It just. That isn't motorized. Well, no, yeah, I do. I have looked at it. I don't even want it. Tell you the truth, man, I could use it out in the garage. That'd be cool. But yeah, it's not worth it to me. It's not that neat of a thing. And if I was going to get one for outside, I'd get the. As close to 300 inches I could get. That would be the only thing that makes sense. And then in that case, I would get a permanent, you know, just a frame. Aluminum frame with the screen on it. No kind of roll up anything.

Yeah, that's definitely cool for the beach or something like that. You still got to tie them down. And you know, the screen doesn't stay unwrinkled if you. If you're in wind. You wouldn't want to take a projector on the beach in the sand any damn way. But anyways, I don't know how that HDMI cable does it, but when you shut the TV off, it shuts the Marantz off the Apple Smart TV device, and it automatically shuts the projector off too.

Speaker A: All right, well, I'm going down for a hearing Test and the V8 at 11, but I'll go over Johnson, do a little bit more. You know, he keeps adding stuff onto that wiring. I expected that, though. Yeah. And Lori. Lori's got a bunch of running around that he's going for a tax class, a free one at Butte
Speaker B: College at the bottom of the hill. Sure has been nice sleeping in this last week. Oh, I can go right
Speaker A: back to sleep. Yep, no problem. But this morning I was wide awake, and I knew I wasn't going back to sleep. That's why I came out here and got on the radio. Me and the weatherman, Larry. Yeah, John was listening, but he was busy. And down in Arizona, and it wasn't too long because they always listen to this channel when they're on that other one, chomping at the bit, thinking that they might be able to make somebody go away. Ha ha ha. All right, enjoy your morning. I'm gonna go watch some tv. Lieb
Speaker B: n6ntm. Oh, I. I know what I was going to ask you. Did you ever hear. Hear why Bill was in the hospital? Check.

Yeah, I've been known to walk the dog a few times. N6ntmr.

There.
