Speaker A: And 17 and the Las Vegas.
Speaker B: Hello, ralph. And happy Friday to you, Ken.
Speaker A: Thing Back at you. Back at you. So I'm not sure when you sent me that text the other day. I was out of town. I got back in cell service and got the message. But was all the audio testing and stuff done satisfactory satisfactorily or what was going on?
Speaker B: No, that was. Jeff was working on some stuff. He was checking some sights and he was kind of scratchy, but it sounded like he was able to clean up the signal. And then his ATMF were working. But. Yeah, it was just. It was a lot and I just thought it would disconnect it just so it wasn't coming out over your stuff. I think you saw in the text just as I was doing it sounded like you was then.
Speaker A: Oh, okay. Yeah, like I said, I was out of. In an area where there. I couldn't have my cell phone actually. And I had it whenever. Something different place. When I finally got back up there, I saw the message I was showing you. Anyways, all. It's all good. It's all good. So I'm glad. Glad you got things worked out. So what. What are you up to this weekend?
Speaker B: Any cool projects? Well, my wife played around with some of her new plants, flowers that she bought that we bought a couple days ago. She. I think we'll. We'll probably finish up with that tomorrow. And then it looks like Jeff is still working on some stuff with that new repeater going up on Santiago. So maybe I'll be able to get together with him tomorrow and get that done. Other than that, no, it's gonna be a nice quiet weekend for us. Yeah.
Speaker A: Cool. Yeah, I gotta. I gotta go to my mom's tomorrow and take down a Christmas decoration for it coming out of town, get up early, hit. Hit the gym and then go to her place, do that. I think the wife and I are going to go out, have a nice dinner tomorrow night.
Speaker B: Good deal. We. We had a nice lunch out today. You know, we. I don't know, we like to stay
Speaker A: home,
Speaker B: But you know, like lunch today we had a really nice lunch. So we do like to get out once or twice a week, but other than that we just. We love to stay home and make our own meals. Yeah. So we still haven't had our anniversary
Speaker A: dinner or have we. We had our anniversary dinner.
Speaker B: I guess we did. We haven't had our anniversary. The outing yet. I'm still trying to find a nice place for us to go spend a couple of days.
Speaker A: Yeah. Good. Good. Yeah, you know, we, we be eating a lot. I'm not a big, I'm not a big food guy. To me, food is fuel. Right. I just, I get yelled at by, by the wife every now and again for eating over this thing. But there's a, there's a really nice restaurant not far too far down the road from our house. It's around a man made lake that's on desert shores and we go there quite often, probably up to three times a month. So they know us and take really, really good care of us. So we like to go there. Matter of fact, we went there for Thanksgiving and I called and they gave me all this, the lady in the front giving all stuff. Well, you got to prepay, you got to put a deposit down. We have a fixed menu and let me talk to Mike. Mike's manager said, hey Mike, this is Ralph. He goes, oh, no problem. Don't worry about any of that crap we got you.
Speaker B: I would imagine a lot of places nowadays, in some neighborhoods, they probably, they probably have some kind of a hole on the credit card, especially with all that dine and dashing, the dine and dashing going on. Yeah, they don't do any of that here. All right. My wife is having difficulties giving one of our cats medicine, so I'm going to set this down for just a minute and give her a hand.
Speaker A: All right. An good to talk to you. I'll be on the road for a few minutes, so if I don't talk to you before I get back home, you have a good evening and I'll, I'll sure I'll hear you on the radio this weekend. N17.

Speaker A: Let's see. What date would that be?
Speaker B: I have no idea, but I believe it's going to be. I believe it's going to be the third week in January.
Speaker A: You could be right. You could be right. Let's see. Because the first was on. Well, actually, the first was on a Thursday, right?
Speaker B: Yes.
Speaker A: So believe it or not, let's see, today's the 9th, 10th, 11th, 12, 13. No, that would only be the second Tuesday in January. Okay.
Speaker B: I just want to make sure I. Make sure I'm there so I can. I can pay my dues.
Speaker A: I haven't looked at the website, but apparently Paul has done something, had added something to the website. You can pay by PayPal by saying, I better. Look, I've already paid, but, you know, be nice to know so that you could tell people. Yeah. So how was Christmas? It was Christmas.
Speaker C: WA7R&R.
Speaker A: Go ahead. Was that correct? Could you give us your whole call?
Speaker C: Done. WA7R&R real quick? Yes, you can pay on the website via PayPal for your membership dues to the. To the club. That's how I did mine. Just say FYI, I'll let you guys get back to it. WA7RR
Speaker A: well, thanks for that info. And you know what, before you go, I need your name. My name is Chris from Yuba City because I don't think we've met yet.
Speaker C: Nope, we have not. I'm David here at Oroville. So another David. So that's my name. And good to talk to you. I have the radio on all the time, but I don't always talk on it. Of course. But since you were talking about paying your dues and different things. Yes, you can do that on the website via PayPal. That's how I signed up and paid mine. So I just wanted to let you know.
Speaker A: All right, well, that's very helpful information. We appreciate it.
Speaker B: Thank you much for the info.
Speaker C: Guys are welcome. Have a good day. I'll get out of here and let you guys get back to it.
Speaker B: WA7RR W E6A X N repeater. Because myself, Colleen and her mom and. And we enjoyed it, you know.
Speaker A: Okay, that's good. You know, ours wasn't terribly big, but then again, you know, with what's happened over the past couple of years, I don't expect it to be big anymore, but you know, I got to spend some nice time with the grandson and that was, that was my Christmas present as far as I am concerned. At least that's what meant the most to me out of it. Well, that's good.
Speaker B: Yeah, I, we did FaceTime with, with the kids and I don't know if I told you or not, but I'll be assumed to be a grandfather.
Speaker A: Hey, congratulations. That's great. Yeah, I mean, I haven't gone overboard with, you know, I'm a grandfather, but it is a nice feeling and you know, it's, it's, it's nice to go interact with the boy when, when we have some time.
Speaker B: Oh, yeah, well, it's gonna be a boy. They already, they already determined that and, and it's. He's due. I think it's May or June.
Speaker A: Yeah. Okay. All right, that's. Well, so you got a little ways to wait, but yeah, that's really fun. I gotta tell you. You know, some of the, you know, initially it's like it's a baby and they're cute and they're precious and all that. But one of the real things that I appreciated was when he first looked over at me, saw me, and a big grin came on his face. I'm like, oh my goodness.
Speaker B: Oh, yeah, definitely. And a couple of our friends, I didn't, Colleen and I didn't realize it was, that it was a thing to figure out what your grandparents name is.
Speaker A: Oh, yeah. Okay. Well, you know, actually before, before James was born, they, they kind of asked, they said they asked I go back into our family name and kind of give them some of the names. So they actually took one of the, the McLean family names. Not from my immediate family, but James is a fairly common name to be named if you're a McLean in our line. And then they took her middle name and they tweaked it just a bit because her, her middle name is Aline. They tweaked it to be Alan. So there's, you know, there's heritage there in both names for him.
Speaker B: Oh, yeah. So are you Irish or Scottish?
Speaker A: Scottish, my good man.
Speaker B: Yeah.
Speaker A: And I actually over the past few years have gotten interested in Ancestry.com and I've been able to, to follow us back to the island in Scotland that we're from.
Speaker B: Oh, that is awesome. Yeah, we've done the ancestry and I'm 80% Scottish and I am here and my wife's waiting outside, so I better give you a 73.
Speaker A: All right, Mike, well, have a great evening. And we'll talk to you later. And we'll see you not next time Tuesday, but the following Tuesday, I hope, at the club meeting.

Speaker A: Hey morning Tom. Kind of chilly morning. It down below freezing in my place.
Speaker B: Yeah, same here so far no irrigation pipes or float or anything like that.
Speaker A: Yeah, that's already 37. I actually just filled up my Jeep as a 287 a gallon man, I just wasn't have not been paying attention to gas prices but under three bucks. I haven't seen that in a long time.
Speaker B: Yeah, I paid. Paid like $346 pretty good for a while bucks. But we're I think. I think was the price of Sam's Club. Where'd you get your gas?
Speaker A: The Murphy Station just east of Easter Ranch on Craig.
Speaker B: Oh yeah, yeah, I know that place. So what are you up to today?
Speaker A: I go to my mom's house, take down her Christmas decorations for her and gonna have to. And I got it. I ordered a replacement battery for one of my Dell convertible tablets. I think it was only running like two hours or so so I found to replace some battery on Amazon. I'm gonna do some search around that but Dell actually has a really cool 3D tutorial online. It shows you step by step how to take it apart and remove the battery and everything else.
Speaker B: So it looks.
Speaker A: You gotta be careful. Right. Take your time. Time and do it. But looks pretty straightforward so I'm going to give that a shot.
Speaker B: Are the connectors soldered on or something?
Speaker A: No, it's a ribbon cable that slides onto the battery and then has one little retaining clips on. So yeah, like. Like I said looks really straightforward. A couple of screws in the back and then you got to take one of those little plastic jimmy tools or whatever and kind of pry the case apart, you know, kind of snap it together. But anyways looks pretty straightforward. I'll give, I'll give Del kudos man. You know they actually put that on the site on their. No kidding official site with all the instructions and stuff kind of. I don't usually see that. Right. But anyways give that a shot. It's a little convertible. It's like a circus pro type thing with a magnetic attachable keyboard. And I got it for a song on Dell refurbished. I got all my stuff on there to take to the sites, you know my VNA software and all my CPS software for all the Motorola radios and vector analyzers and all that stuff. So just a little nice little thing I can throw into one of those harbor freight boxes and take up to the radio sites with me.
Speaker B: Yeah, so I wonder if there's much snow up there.
Speaker A: Yeah, can't see on Polar Sea because you got to be on that mesh thing to see the cameras, which were not. As a matter of fact, we're going to put some actual Nokini cameras up there that are tied to our network that are independent from having to be on the mesh thing. So I can't see up there, but Angel's got quite a bit of snow. Highland got nailed. Matter of fact, we lost the Verizon card on Highland for a couple hours, and it came back, so I'm not sure what happened. Maybe Verizon had an outage, but everything's up. But, yeah, quite a bit of stuff.
Speaker B: Yeah. So far, not much snow up by my property.
Speaker A: Kind of relatively mild. Winter got a.
Speaker B: A couple days ago. That's it.
Speaker A: Yeah. And I think they were talking about it getting it warmer again next week. So whatever's up on the. On the hills will probably melt up pretty quick. I checked a lot. A tree on the mountaintops this morning was like 15 degrees up to both angel and high, and I'm sure it's already starting to warm up. But anyways, that's about it. Those are some of the projects I need to do tomorrow. I was out of town last week
Speaker B: for a little bit, so I was
Speaker A: trying to get caught up.
Speaker B: All right, well, You have a great day.
Speaker A: Have fun with your mom

Amateur Radio Newsline Report number 2515 with a release date of Friday, January 9, 2026 to follow in 5 4, 3, 2 1. The following is a QST the FCC bans the sale of foreign made drones in the U.S. montenegro launches its first satellite and an HF net to take care of family, caregivers all all this and more as Amateur Radio Newsline Report number 2515 comes your way right now from around the world. This is Newsline, Amateur Radio's Independent on the Air News and Bulletin Service. Now reporting from Union, Kentucky, here's Neil Rath, WP9 CPG. Our top story is of particular interest to drone users. A ban on imports into the US now means that only American made drones with American American made parts may be sold here. Kent Peterson, KC0DGY picks up the story from here. The import and sales of foreign made drones and components are now banned in the US following action by the Federal Communications Commission citing the potential of national security risks. The agency's move follows an executive order from the White House in June banning unmanned aircraft systems and their parts. The executive order, known as Restoring American Aerospace Sovereignty, stated that the move also has the goal of boosting drone manufacture in the US for use here and for export to the global marketplace. The ban is expected to have far reaching effects on drone sellers as well as their customers. Drones are widely used by first responders, farmers, business owners and hobbyists. The ban only affects new products that are not already Here in the US this is Kent Peterson, KC0DGY as of January 1st, the landscape for drone operators has also changed in the uk. Under new Civil Aviation Authority regulations, each drone to be sold must carry class marks that reflect compliance with that particular aircraft's technical and safety standards. The class marks are similar to those for where and how the drone can be flown. There is also an array of new regulations covering different weights of drones and their permitted proximity to people or crowds of people. Drones carrying cameras and weighing at least 100 grams are also required to have a flyer ID. A remote ID is also required to transmit the drone's identification and its location while airborne. The new regulations apply to drone use by hobbyists as well as professionals. The class based regulations do not apply to drones purchased before the first of these before the first of this year. They will instead operate under the weight based rules. For specific rules visit caa.co.uk stroke clone.
