Pod being your message amplified, ready to share your message with the world, start your podcast .

journey with. Thousands of businesses and enterprises trust pod bean to launch their podcasts. Launch podds on part today. My school uses pod by my church too.

I love IT. I .

really do.

Hello, and welcome to the home radio crash course podcast. And he is josh immature dio cosine .

K I six N A Z and later K N six N W Z.

And hello, let's talk about them. Radio, shall we let go? Hello, layer, how have your last two weeks .

been oh so busy.

so busy? Should we just say write up front? Congratulations to lay out cheers.

Thank you. cheers. Now I am .

a general. Yeah I think you your upgrade happened like the day the process, look was instantaneous. So a.

so I cram for the test.

Yes.

on the thirty years and took at that evening.

yes.

And big thanks to the H. R. C. C.

V is they are amazing.

right? IT was a harder and dug and neck. And josh.

not me.

right? A A different josh. Uh, and I I think Austin was also there. So very nice to see many of friendly faces. But I would happen our late.

Yes, you were dealing with kids things.

yes, but also I was getting into costume.

This is a thing we talked about. Yes.

yeah, but I was the only one I got to.

which was .

hilarious. And then the next day was just getting ready for halloween.

IT was non stop. yeah. I you told me, gathered the kids and just go.

Yes, and I took them. I was, I don't even think IT was like thirty minutes. Any goo can come back.

Yeah, I got thirty two to thirty five. So IT wasn't perfect. IT was actually lower than where I had been scoring, really the da, because I was getting some perfect leading up to the test. But I was a round somewhere between that like a thirty three and thirty five um by the time I was gonna take the test then and then I got thirty two and I go and.

But good job. Nicely done. We you're there. So that means for the remainder of I think we said the year, we're not we're just onna put the the testing questions on the side so you can we can figure out something interesting and fun to do today. I, we will be taking a test today.

You're gonna taking that.

No, you too, you got to fill out your side of me.

Ohh.

so this should be interested.

I independently take them.

No, we're get all answer what I think mine is, you can say, I think yeah right and we'll explain anyway, this is very kg, but we will get there. But yeah, we d like to kick off the podcast with the home radio minute. It's never a minute.

So a week ago or was IT two weeks? I know, I think was last week I did a video on having a hamodia pamphlet. You and I talked about this like a flyer, a thing that when you are Operating in public, as when does with parks on the air, we often have people come up and ask what we're doing.

A lot of people will say things like you talk in aliens, you know that you'll have and some will be joking. Some will be saying that in a way that like they're kind of concern that you're doing something illegal, you know and they're kind of using that as a way to kind of break the eyes. So how would nice would to be is if if you're ky deep and a pilot, you're just slammed with people and so many comes up to you and they're like, what are you doing and you can hand them like a nicely done pampa let, right? And so you can say what you're doing, breakdown what amateur radio is.

It's an fcc service, a part of many services, but our service provides some of the largest privileges of radio transmission. And what we're doing out here in the field is parks on the airtime, like a game, right? We go out, we set up our station, we try to make ten contacts.

And if we make contacts with those people, we get points, right? It's kind of got a leaderboard thing. What would you add to a pamphlet if you had to make a pant.

made a shirt?

You did. That's true. And lite were talking about lights on one of them, one of the shirts and the other one was like pda type communication.

no. One shirt that has two, four different points on IT.

Pretty you too. And you, no. Wow, it's that informative.

It's the whole backside of the shirt.

Yeah yeah. Which is also good because sometimes so people come up to you from like behind or the side and they can kind of see the shirt. But a flyer is also a good thing to have the cooking about flyers.

You can have Q R codes on IT, so you can like automatically linked to the oral or the wikipedia tile, or your local club, your local club, or, hey, my play list for, are you new to ham radio? Start here. That's on my youtube channel, which has seemed to work out pretty well. So later, um I was going to play the thing you know I was going to play thing so I do we do have a test .

here um but it's you're sticking IT snacked up in the middle of the ham radio section oh.

you're right, you're right. That's very important because we have a we got to comment on the podcast that we got to talk about talking about the ham radio stuff. So i'm going to .

be a good sport. I'm going to go ahead and i'm going go for five extra question i'm going .

to do IT you just gonna do some wild questions .

right off the top? Yeah.

just gna OK. yeah. And then we will be good for the rain major of the year. We'll all IT. This is the farewell .

to get you hit the button.

And now I got a OK. Sorry.

which of the following can be calculated using a Smith chart, a impedance along transmission lines, b radiation resistance, c and ten or radiation pattern or d radio propagation? I'm going to go with the no, it's wrong.

It's yeah because .

the Smith chart, invented by Philip h. Smith, born in nineteen .

o five yeah.

passed away in nineteen and eighty seven. That's a long.

fruitful life.

Is a graphical aid or no mom. m. Design for electrical and electronics engineers specializing in radio frequency engineering to assist in solving problems with transmission lines and .

matching circuits indeed very useful, although can be a little scary when you look at them, very, very techy looking. Okay.

which of the following describes an optical shaft encoder? A, A device for generating ready signals by means of a rotating light source. B, an optical computing device in which light is coupled between devices by fire optics see a device that detects rotation by interrupting a light source with a pattern wheel, or D, A device that measures the strength of a beam of light using analog to digital conversion. The answer is, see a device that detects rotation by interrupting a light source with .

a pattern wheel serve. These questions you haven't .

seen amazing things are of. So what can we do with an optical shaft encoder? Optical rotary encoder? IT sounds like a fancy name for a position detector. The number of applications can be enormous, but narrowing down to anything and related, they can be used for detecting, one, the position of A V fo ob, two position of a rotary and tana, three position of volume control.

You can remember .

to remember this, remember that a wheel rotation around the shaft.

the tip.

what is the purpose of using multiple driven elements connected through facing lines?

Oh, this is a one.

A to prevent harmonic radiation from the transmitter. b. To control the antenna is radiation pattern.

C, to create a low angle radiation pattern, or d to allow single antennas to Operate on other bands. To allow single band and tennis to Operate on other bands is no, no. I'm not saying that that's the answer. I was the answer wrong.

It's big to control the international radiation pattern. yeah. These areas are constructed by using physically identical antennas that are fed with phasing lines that create that necessary phase differences between them. This ensures that each element radiate a signal within the necessary phase to create the desired and tanna pattern.

There is such a cool concept, if you think about, if you use a slightly longer piece, Sophia, two vertical tennis, and use the longer piece of coax the speed at which the R, F gets to the anti na and begins to radiate. If you have the appropriate phase on IT, you'll actually amplify the one of the antennas and add the signal of the other one into the pattern of the first one and provide gain. It's really cool. The other really what they make them with, like four verticals. Interest turn IT in different directions.

But it's really, really cool. How do A P, R stations really data eh? By packet dgp ters b by c four F M.

repeated by d mr .

repeater wow, or d by packet A C K flash N A K reay. That's a good question. It's by packet digital.

Yes, the act neck um specifically is fundamentally against the concept of A P S.

Interesting yeah .

really really interesting.

So that's that's the p and A P R S stands for packet. Think P P is for packet, and A, P, R, S needs packet. D, G.

Peter, pick the answer with two piece. That's the explanation. All right.

Well, if you would like to get your general, like laya has got ten, her general, we highly recommend ham study dot org, a fantastic place to go study, not only take practice exams, but study for the license pool. You can get all the questions there, and you can work through them with handy little tips and explanations on why the answers are with them.

I forgot ten. Mike was also on my test. I'm so sorry .

I just mick is in every test to around here we still have they all .

died to the you. Thank all.

I didn't like all star.

I really did I did and like, I don't know why I didn't say mike's name elder than I just assume everybody knows he's in every like.

sorry, mike. Ah no, that's good. But no, again, amazing work of the hr CCB easy.

By the way, if you'd like to a to take an exam with the H. R. C.

cv. The link is in the show notes to our discord. And if you go to is that, uh test questions, hashtag test questions. Yes, you can talk to the V E live and set up a session for you to take your test.

So and I I could go into more detail about my test, but I actually wrote my first article, oh in the hr cc newsletter so to be a .

patch patron to get that.

And I kind fleshed IT all out, but a very, very efficient team. And I think my call ah was updated on the F C C. Database by the .

first IT was before that. I thought I was like that day. No.

I think they actually held off for me.

They did because I .

think they were expecting me to announced on the pod test. We didn't. Pod.

you think that they.

the fcc held back? No.

the dev is okay. okay. Got IT, got IT. yeah. We also highly recommend the gordon was ham radio test prep books. These are now in production again.

The atl is full time producing these, which is awesome. They're also available on amazon. We have links in the shown notes for that well, and we also recommend the fast track your ham radio license books.

They are also on audio that you can get through auto. So take a look at all the links we have in the shown notes. Join the conversation by leaving a review on apple podcast for the ham radio crash course podcast and or emAiling us at laya at hamptons al dot com.

Leaving a review wherever you listen to the podcast will help the hamdir crh course reach more hams and the ham curious. And we appreciate that we did actually get a review that I I now believe that apple podcast will will lower the negative reviews below of five star review. They won't like lead with a one star.

right?

Almost never. But we got one. So this came in actually on the seventeenth of october.

I think we might skipped IT. No, maybe not. Anyway, no, yeah, we definitely keep IT.

The title is misleading. Who wrote this? This is from fat hate. So wow, prepare yourself a for this one. Josh alone could Carry a podcast. He could, even though his topics are broad and a more for consensus than to prove a point.

I'm not sure what that means.

I try to make people not be mad, and I do, do you? I find IT so easy to aggravate people that, just by my thoughts. Then I just don't say that, but the show is draped by his wife interrupting, and then the entering and him being too afraid of her.

Are you terrified? You're very intimidating me out. I reera too afraid of her to keep the show focused. At this point, the hand technical blurbs are a distraction from the meat of the show, which is layer, which is spelled wrong, layer like princess lads o that's OK lagon that's lay as firehose of mid wit, wonderful word mid with not a net wit mdt so little above .

just complete IT firehose .

of midwood recycled redit social commentary. I think that's .

like a jb that .

you might be a liberal because usually when somebody ty mentions read IT uh I don't even think you go on redit other than for the preparedness corner no.

I absolutely am on reddit because I have .

a shrimp coria very dish everyday.

Um I also um we just adopted a new dog today. Yes so I have been on the multiple redit that's .

a reit dog right there. For sure.

And it's so funny that you say that because of obviously, we had a significant day, this this week oh my god， it's still this week yeah IT feels so long but obviously .

I I am election .

yeah I I am a true because I have friends from both sides of the isle who talked to me like I am on the same side. Just and and that's just not read IT yeah .

so there you go.

You must be extreme.

I think like I don't know that that guy he listens to the podcast no.

I think you probably listened a back when I used to do a lot of the r slash propper.

But most of the show is all front loaded with his radio content and and then our voice mails in emails .

are all about and I already got my general, I mean, this is there .

would be a short podcast if I wouldn't even do that.

I just make a video. Some people would really.

I would just make a video though I wouldn't even do the podcast. What's the point? right? I just turn the camera.

I don't ma get a bigger ready and over on youtube. Just go do over there. Wow, I made right that's that's I look at IT anyway just holding back the .

podcast that was peak content .

though because that was ridiculous comment but he we appreciate IT still its engagement.

I really appreciate my thank you so much.

That's sure they did go a little light on me. I'm scared of you.

You're .

fine. Cowardly Mandate.

you know I don't I don't think you're afraid of me so much as you want a happy life.

I want a happy life. And also, i'm pretty good at judging how much time something will take. Yeah is IT is IT worth IT to gigs go to battle over something that's probably very miniscule and issue to like just do the thing that yeah you yeah like whenever but but we disagree all the time. We have different thing.

yes but like quite literally, this podcasts is us having a very long conversation.

right? So right what's sorry .

to have disappointed you?

T fat hate. So there you go. Your name is coming through.

You know what? We will take your your review into advisement. And if I am no longer on the podcast, it's thanks to you .

and they'll just be one more video a week and no more about. The show topic. The topic of the show is gentleman.

Let's get down to business.

Yes, one band or all band is the title of show topic. A number of questions on the last live stream.

After chat, ask, should someone just get a ten metre radio like a technician? This is aimed more towards our technician friends that are in the chat? Or should they go ahead, get an all band or all mode rating, right? So what what are we talking about here? Well, there are a number of very effective and very inexpensive mono band, mainly ten meter radio on amazon radio da cells a couple any tone sells a you now they can be hacked usually in some way to get like twelve meters.

You can probably hold down a couple of button and turn on and on and pick up the cb channels as well. So that's kind of what these are, right? These are the radios that are built around cb Operation that will do ten meter ham radio, likely twelve meter as well.

Now what's cool about them though is for like two hundred fifty bucks, you can get like a sixty eighty, what upper sideband A M F M radio. And the one that I reviewed, which is the one, is that the qt eighty? I think it's called for a radio data. Q T eighty.

That's that's a name.

IT might be just the q eighty. IT should be the Q T eighty, but anyway, that one will also do morse code. You can actually modify IT slightly to do more scoter, you can just use the P T T button is the strike y like the click, click as the actual morse code key, as a street key is a great radio.

I had a lot of fun using IT. And the fact that it's two hundred and fifty dollars when one of the most common recommended entry level, H F radio that we kind of point people to is the shaw g ninety. Shaw G I is like four hundred and fifty dollars. IT gives you, I think, all the H, F. Bans, except six meters.

You know, I order of one.

I actually, I have one.

Yeah, that's yours.

You, what OK did you .

just get a mad at .

me for buying. Use the g, it's fine. It's good anyway.

So the question becomes for a technician, right? Technicians have voice privileges and morse code privileges on ten meters within restricted frequency spaces. But the single sideband space is actually very, very big. And that also happens to be where most of the life is anyway. On ten meters within the twenty eight dot three hundred and twenty eight dot five hundred mega hurt space that you'll find almost all the single sideband activity.

So if for a technician, they really only need a ten metre radio unless they want to dip their toes in and morse code, and then they may want to consider something that will get them forty meters and eighty meters because they have some privileges there too. But again, morse code only. So the question is, how does this all breakdown? Well, the truth is that these are kind of like vastly different radios. Very few all band radios exist.

So we're kind of conflicting this term a little bit rate as we're going from now g ninety into something like a yu eight fifty seven or an icon seventy one hundred and um and I guess also a icon seven or five in the upcoming asu radio is gonna be all band all mode as well? Those are Q R P radios, right? But hey, there's some advantage to having all of that under your belt.

So they're only effective these mono band radios, i'd say, for about the next two to three years, right? So through twenty twenty five and twenty twenty six, and it's going to start to taper off as the sun side cycle starts to regress back to the low side of the solar cycle. And when that happens, ten meters generally kind of drives up not just during the day like we have now where it's active like every day can get on ten meters from morning until about late afternoon and make some really Stellar contacts.

But it's going to drive completely. They won't even be any kind of contacts that are happening day to day. And you might get lucky with an occasional opening. Sadly, that is what happens to ten meters.

And one of the reasons why i'm i'm an advocate of giving technicians maybe A A little bit of frequency space on maybe fifteen meters, one of the work bans, maybe twenty. But twenty years are a pretty busy place, forties, a pretty small band, eighty meters. So sure there's a lot of space on eighty meters, but the work dancing like a good spot.

So fifteen meters, a little bit of action, action there. Maybe seventeen, maybe some twelve. You get where i'm going with this. So you can basically when you when you look at these radios, you have to consider the budget and how bitten or smitten that technician will become with hf. If they're not really gonna fall in love with hf, maybe there they want to do like a post activation and maybe theyll do one a year or a couple a year and they're not really that hard court about IT, then hey, no big deal just by the ten meter radio, then you're you're kind of good to go.

But on the flip side, if they buy the ten meter radio, get completely hooked into poder or some other radio use case, and end up falling in love with hf, then they are immediately going to start looking at a multiply radio, likely also multi band in tennis and probably getting their general. So then at that point, what do you do with this ten meter only radio you've bought? Well, you can mounted in a car.

IT could be a back up radio that goes in, maybe up, I don't know, a very day. Trash can. You might have built a tactical trash can or IT could be something that you give to another person that's a technician that to try and encourage them to try out.

Hf, right? So this is kind of a good paid forward radio. The problem is its life, it's usefulness as a platform.

Radios is kind of going to be limited as the solar cycle starts to fade. Now when IT comes to all in one radios, again, we're conflicting this a little bit. But this question was a good one that we spent some time talking about on the lifestraw. And I thought I would co condense my answer down a little bit. All in one, radios, to me, can be a really useful in that you have everything in all one box.

But the thing to remember, when you're talking about radios, if an H, F, only radio, say A, A, U, F, eight and ninety one is roughly the same size as a suf eight, fifty seven all band version or an earlier model of an all band radio, how do they get all those extra bands in there with its still being an excEllent performers as both are perceiver and a transmitter transmitter and the answer to that is it's kind of a master of all, a jack of all trades, master of none kind of thing. And and further, if you put all your buckets into one basket and then you'll lose that basket in the form of the radio breaking or you damage IT in some where or its lost, then you've lost all your bands of Operation. So it's entirely possible that you get multiple radios, or maybe you get one of those ten meter only radios and maybe a decent mobile radio for your vehicle and in ten to match.

And so now you have A V H F U H F capable radio for possibly emergencies, talking on local repeater res, talking on two meter complex. And then you have the ten metre to come around that out, that H F little bit of experience you want to get in, and then save up some money and get yourself like a gene, or if you can, costly. SE were now at at a space where some really interesting entry level radius exists in the form of the A U F T seven ten.

The field model specifically is usually sub one thousand dollars, and I expect to see IT come down to below one thousand dollars again for black friday, which is coming up. So consider that you know, important things to think of. Particularly we go into the holiday season, people start thinking about where they went.

Want to put some of their wishlist items. Radios can be very expensive, and I think you would have a lot of fun with a motor ban ten metre radio. Just keep in mind, know exactly what that is and know what you're getting yourself into.

My your business and my mind.

you should go make what is so many. Welcome to hug a wild in the asserted ham seller. Lay, have you found a an interesting online exchange of thoughts that we'd like to talk about today?

I'm not sure that this belongs the in the hug wild and the sault ham seller, but I wanted just thought on IT.

okay.

the post says I took my tech test. I failed. They won't be getting my money again.

OK, okay.

So do you think want to read the the comments on this that .

they will be super .

welcoming or .

helpful or helpful or a .

or b very.

i'm going to go with B.

So I have to say that just kind of seeing the initial post, I wouldn't fault a ham for getting .

salt ty about this. Not really, really. no. yeah. yeah.

So none of the comments i'm saying are necessarily unjustified.

Okay.

but delivery can be different.

I mean, this is somebody that went into the room of people that are about a thing and then kind of took a dump on that. Yes, right? yes. So you're opening yourself up. yeah.

So the first response is perfect example of today's ety. I failed. So it's their .

fault t everyone else is all good mine somebody is be held accountable for my taking my technician exam but then .

somebody very kind comes and says plenty of kind to all of .

you with a little .

compassion that the guy pain and didn't pass in our offering. Help you. You are what I would consider an alma to our beginner positive. So there were actually a lot of early nice chance. Like somebody said, my recommendation is take a step back for a few days, relax, do something fun, look at the available practice test sites, uh, read through books that give you the answers and explanations, and take practice test until you pass them, and then go take the real one in the next attempt will be easy for you, wishing you the best sets. That's a plus, a plus response there.

yeah.

Then somebody goes, maybe they should put back having to learn the code.

definitely not the right direction.

And as somebody else is if that's your output, now maybe this isn't the right hoby.

I mean, there is something to be said about that actually, I hate I don't want. Obviously, we're not gay keeping and anyone that kind of way here, but this is a hobby that only gives you back what you put into IT, right? Yeah, IT doesn't.

There's not a lot of free bees in amateur radio. Like if you want to learn something, you have to go learn IT, you have to pursue IT, right? Your chocolate. So I can't wait to .

somebody said I had a five year old at our last session who .

took the tack and fast.

who? What a burn down. So let's show me. Sick burn dog. Wow, h five year old that's that's a very Young detections that's like world record level like yeah there has only been a couple of hands that have been five and have gotten a technician exam.

Yes.

that's that's pretty rare. I so boy, the fact that something costs money to take the exam definitely doesn't mean you should get the license for free, right? So I think that the the op here had a bit of either nativity about IT or maybe didn't take things seriously enough, maybe didn't understand fully what they were getting themselves into when they decided detect the exam because I I don't think I should have been a surprise. I have.

I have hope not. You take me your practice exams and you know, really kind of where you stand.

I I would think so, right, because he tells you pretty .

quick you there is a response here um that you would expect that I haven't said yet. What do you think IT is?

Go get your gene or s license.

No.

no.

don't know. You don't need a license. Fire that radio. I was .

hoping that wouldn't have happened. But okay, that has grown .

substantially .

in this last year. The amount of people who are just like i'm gonna get a license at all, i'm just not willing to do any of that. So I I don't know, man, I don't know how to reply to those people yet.

I feel like I need to make a video on IT. But what's the point, right? If there is completely unwilling and nothing.

i'm going to sway them and I going to leave you with this. Yeah, somebody commented. I took at eight times. Then finally, passive. Wa, that is persevere.

Well done. I heard somebody say actually this individual is a youtube. He said in multiple times, you can't you can't logic someone out of a position that they didn't logic themselves into.

Of like you know what, you have got a point. You got a very good point there, bud. So even if someone has like an an incredibly ill informed hot take, it's probably not a hot take based off of something they they read or fully understand.

It's like a belief they hold. And it's incredible bly difficult to change a human being thoughts on a belief to the point that it's like, my bother. So indeed.

are you ready? Are you ready? Are you into the .

unknown that will go for our show? Fear no man of one fit after another for our area to five.

And a later to be indeed welcome to lay us prepared this corner where he goes to read IT and we hear all the political next, later would have worth this week.

This week we're talking new maps.

New maps. Is this like the simulation? If there wasn't nuke, yes, over a certain area of the country, how what the impact damage would be in all OK.

And I I went into this because the nuclear energy agency, N E A .

OK, okay.

had basically there putting together a ten of response plans. They they meet, I think, every year in october, or something like that, the twenty four different nations.

Okay, interesting. And this is like for them to make prepared this plans to deal with at the aftermath. Or is this .

like nuclear, nuclear and radios, radiological emergency prepared this response and recovery.

And that's a real upbeat group。

I do have a funny story about another government agency though, because we had carnival, which is the reason we didn't record last.

Yes, we are chinese. Uh, the chinese school, which we spent all night on friday, you definitely we're up all night yeah and then I spent all day slapping yes.

you you're a good man.

I'm a good sleep. Er .

you're basically a rody that .

I was fall .

on rody so I needed citrus fruits. So I kind of put out a um a post in the one of the neighbor d groups that's for planting, assuming that the gardeners, somebody y's gona have some such as fruit and somebody kindly responded and they live nearby, I mean, like really nearby and they were like, yeah, i've got some such fruits.

They are ready to though.

just D M. Me go, so then I go to D M. Them they work at noa.

Okay, okay.

And then I go to their house again, very close. Fy make up, uh, these are. And I I gave them a gift of rice cakes. So like these japanese rice cakes are bag of them some quicker.

quicker, well loved in the asian community.

And the person answer the door, and SHE was like, yeah, I know, I know who you are .

and did not give you any background. If IT was, we assumed .

the has to be .

community stuff.

Because if he said the power of all thank you so much and he was like, yeah, i'm also going to send um my daughter to go volunteer there .

tomorrow and .

I think have no no .

so helpful. So peer, we love .

no what we definitely love. Noa, so okay, so this are this article from uh, the N A set me down this a path of nuk map.

Nuk map.

Okay, so what you can do and i'll i'll drop the the na is not suggesting who crap.

They're not related. It's their website got little ads on there for like I have food y're selling buckets.

I need to drop the link the .

show up some jean Baker .

buckets oh, a new there's nuke map and then there's also missile map and do different .

things cannot can.

So when you go to nuke map, the first step is that you can dry a drag a marker to whatever you'd like to target. Oh, okay. And you can type in the name of the city or there's a nifty drop for an enemy, right? Just just the I M I number of so would you go to the would .

you like to play a game so that there's .

a drop down list of of cities that you can select?

Do you hate los Angeles?

Los Angeles is one .

of them watching to want to be funny if like the website um would organize the drop down menu based off of the people who clicked on the a city the most like the ranking. We know what you want.

cities in the us, right? Of course moscow and it's not a super long list. It's maybe twenty cities.

You know why? Then the pretty .

big IT suggest historical locations.

but you can recreate here, or SHE the socket, or SHE.

Oh my god. Soc, trinity site, new mexico. sure. OK a the u. glob. And I would talk martial islands in the mu island, the martial islands.

the martial lands, do we blue the crap at martial sudan?

Craters in nevada.

that was the .

nevada test site, and the car bomb side in russia? Those are the historical, just so you could see, I guess, the the blast radius. So then the next thing is you choose a warhead yield.

Well, what is a warhead yield? Great question. There's a question mark to answer that the yield is the explosive power of the nuclear detonation to be modeled, expressed in .

units of TNT equivalent. okay.

And then .

so .

much if you didn't, you don't have any concept of the power of TNT, right? There's a drop down many that allows you to select other presents. David cross, the smallest U, S, bomb produced that's twenty two crude nuclear terrorist weapon, one hundred T, B, sixty one mod, three lowest uh, K, T, currently in U.

S. arsenal. This is lowest three hundred two, followed by this is .

this list is huge. Okay, I just had to pull IT up because of the way you're this is .

a really north korean weapons tested in go.

the eyes of the south .

korean team. OK north korean weapons tested in two thousand and nine. 嗯， 哼 six k ty north korean weapon tested in twenty thirteen。

That's that's all in north korea. That's ten. Kt, okay. And so this is the the fat man is just for a frame of reference.

You're saying north korean weapons testing and twenty thirteen ten. Kt, right, the fat man dropped on negative. I was twenty.

K, yeah, little boy was fifteen.

yeah. The the trinity test was twenty. Kt, all right. So I would like to point out .

that at some point these go from kills in the hundreds of kilos into megatons OK.

So north korean weapon tested in two thousand seventeen, one hundred and fifty kt. Okay, A A W A D, which is currently in the U. S. Arsenal, is a cruise missile for one hundred and fifty kt.

There's a lot is .

very detailed.

the iv king.

which is the largest pure vision vision, vision weapon tested by U S A five hundred K T. And let's see, let's see where were, uh, what's the biggest? We got the sr bomba largest U S S R bomb designed one hundred m OK.

That's mag that's designed. Go one up.

Oh, the largest tested is a fifty empty he said OK. I don't .

know that IT was full yield. I'm hoping IT wasn't. But that is insane, the meg insane.

So well, i'm going to test this off of los Angeles, a boy, so that I can just understand scale. And i'm not very good with a, you know, understanding how far things are by with numbers. So then your basic options are to choose the height of the burst as an airburst or a surface.

The airbus is gonna larger.

okay? Then the other effects, casualties and radio act to fall out. There's also advanced options.

You can maximized airburst radio for all effects. Optimize for overpressure. Uh, first tight. None of this makes sense to me.

Optimize for overpressure basically means that when the vacuum of the explosion, the just the air pressure burst alone takes out a ton of the everything, buildings, people living life, everything.

I am just gonna sume that the precepts will give me whatever these options are OK. Because like it's, you can choose whether there's a fireball crature fall out, uh, choose the wind speed, the fall vision fraction, mushroom cloud dimensions. And okay, so i'm just going to go with the divorce.

Okay.

so i'm going with the smallest, which is the David cross, the smallest U. S. Bomb produced in los Angeles surface with .

casualties .

and radioactive follow. I'm going to click.

We're getting hit not with .

the David croft.

Oh no, i'm on a surface. Oh, no. The David cross? No.

that's that's a okay. So apparently the David croft in los Angeles would create about ten thousand estimated fatalities and two thousand, two hundred and thirty estimated injuries in any given twenty four hour period there is about fifteen thousand seven hundred people um in the light blast range of a simulated that nation okay so if that happens in a like you know los Angeles city proper IT really only gets out like one two, about three blocks right? Okay, for the David croft, i'm going to change this actually to air .

burst IT doesn't change .

the damage IT drinks IT actually. Okay, more injuries, less fatalities. The um impact radius is actually only about two blocks.

wow.

okay. So we're going to go to surface and we're going to go to the biggest one, okay, the biggest one that was .

actually tested. 搞笑 way.

oh my gosh. IT goes from .

and the fallout would .

be insane. Los .

Angeles counting, very fine.

IT goes past the new port beach, just almost legua from from sana. Clara paul deal this this may not mean a lot to anybody who hasn't been in the other areas. I really suggest you do this with your own city so you kind of understand magnitude.

but. It's bad.

And then there's this what is this this fall out this tail thing.

that's the fallout.

That's the followed area. The follow area would .

take you from in the past.

That's almost that's like. It's going to vegas. I mean, it's it's literally pointed at biest.

Yeah so this is .

this is really very interesting and the the right side of this page you can scroll .

through and that gives you a breakdown unlike what the damaging effects would be. So even down to luna beach would be thermal radiation that would cause third degree burns within eleven thousand kilometres in space. Yeah, that is insane. And a obama .

of that size would generate about four million fatalities, 嗯， 哼， and also another three point seven million in injuries. That's massive.

That is that crazy.

So i'm not trying to say that there is there is going to be a nuclear bomb drop, but if you were somebody who is interested in preparing for something like this, right, what I would do is I would take the neck map and I would take a look at whatever major infrastructure you live near .

that and drop a new on .

IT that would heavily impact yeah you know because there they're not gonna drop IT just anywhere. They're trying to take down infrastructure. So recovery .

is impossible. Large world centers.

right? So for us, the long beach would probably be something um the long beach to send pedro area would be pretty critical because .

it's a major part of betwen, the center area and and towards the port. Two birds of turbine with one stone.

right sure really strategic thinking there yeah yeah um and los Angels would take out A A airport to a major international airport.

take out a tony airport.

right?

Because there's a ogen deal IT .

IT would hit yeah IT would hit burbank IT would hit ontario yeah santanna yeah I mean that that would really be crappy, but also would take out hollywood. So were no movies about the button .

exactly that got dropped.

So I will drop a link for for this in the show notes if you are at all interested in what the fallout may look like. The impacted area yeah.

if you have trouble going to sleep, check out this website before. Yeah, i'm sure i'll put you right to sleep.

If you're shopping for a home.

put a bomb on to consider your threat vectors. Yes, yes, right. I get IT. I see what you're doing there. 哎呀， let me know we .

wanted now let me what is not a members .

called the schedule and the .

inconceivable and now our future presentation.

For those keeping counted home, that was roughly forty five minutes jam pact of amar radio content on the hamburger press podcast. Now we're going to get into some of the other fun stuff. I guess the new map was a little bit outside of halm radio, but you definitely would be using him, right? You.

they start travel. I mean, that would have been your em peace or all right?

Oh yeah, ah yeah. You Better get yourself a tech can, tactical trash can. Welcome to the H.

R, C, C. Movie club. This is our review of movies you vote and we go watch. We watched world or z so long ago based on your recommendations.

And before we even gets started, after we watch this movie, I missed the book so much. I listen to the audio book again. The whole thing, all twelve hours of IT sins we made.

the last I got in the car during this is listening of the the book by an audible and assuming and I was like, is this common? yeah. And you are like, oh, IT could be. I like, pretty sure it's common. Common, the rapper, yeah, right.

one hundred percent IT was one hundred percent common. Yeah, he was a dog trainer, basically. Boy, I don't want to get too much in the audio book.

Let me just tell you, if you watch world worthy and your leg ah i'm not really that enthralled by this. The only thing that the book shares in common with the movie is the title that is the only thing that is so vastly different. But IT is crazy. There's like a maybe one .

or two quotes from the movie would have been Better as a post pocalypse c love .

actually I mean, that kind of what the book yeah I mean, there's no love really involved in IT. But anyway, so world worthy is centered around brad. Pit is the main character in he's kind of like an investigative, his investigator for the U.

N. At least he was he retired to go be with his family. And then the zombie outbreak happens. He gets picked up by his old boss .

and they're in philadelphy. So that's .

that's a rough, not a good place to be in his arbi Opera outbreak.

And these are so many tourist .

zombies now and these are relatively quick zombies and they do something um that isn't really shown in omi movies, but they kind of like climb on each other. They have the ability to go over walls and stuff because they make like human latters.

These are the scariest of zones when you're just looking at IT from an epidemiology standpoint because the infection is instantaneous, right? And once infected, then you go on to infect other people immediately. So what do they call IT like the the R O value?

yeah. IT was like ten seconds. And the people were after getting .

bit right and they're so fast yeah yeah.

they're fast zombies. That's right in the movie, in the book, they're slow.

The zombies are just a scarious yeah .

the scarious representation of fast omes to me, I think is, uh, twenty eight days later. no. And the water was dave, the dead, the donor, the dead, the remic. Yeah yeah. But twenty days later is frighting.

And they're not just these ambling colum sy zombies. As you said, they climb on top of each other. They can scale because .

there are so many of them. They just keep stacking on top of each other and big until they get over the top, which is .

that was kind of the key trier for this movie, the heart of zombie that became so mountains IT could scale a massive wall. right? right? So red .

pit gets picked up, brought to this. It's it's a large ship that the U. N is basically the head of the U.

N. At this point is trying to figure out what's happening. He has a team of the best men and their, I know, brainstorming inside this ship. They're trying to figure out how this happened.

How can we stop the zombies? What do we do? And bread pit basically gets an automated of you got got to help us stop these ambitions or we're kicking your family off the boat.

Because only people who who have a job can be on the boat is kind of what the boss tells him. He tells him, in the nicest way the boss is actually seems like a nice guy, but he is not the point. So brad pit, from the moment he sets off on this journey, is leapfrogging around the world to unlock the secrets of the zome menus.

And I might have to note how crazy IT is. I, I see zombie m as an epidemic. okay? The fact that there is so much travel happening, these planes are full of people, that is something you would shut down immediately.

right when you .

know how quickly you can spread your isolating countries, so that at the very least, some countries, if they did not allow incoming travel at all, could be protected to save humanity. Okay, there people, he's fine, commercial.

But yeah, he gets like the last thing out of out of israel or something.

He's all on a special U N play. I mean.

he starts out in a special plane, but then that crashes or something.

But but you know, i'm saying they still commercial flights going.

right? People are trying to fleet.

Yeah but and this comes from a propane amic time because we are so much more knowledgeable.

Now, like all the flight, everybody go home locked in your country immediately. Well, that's actually one of the first stop he makes is to israel. And israel kind of is is it's done much Better in the book.

I am going to hopefully not say that too many times. You just assume anything you seen in this book is or in the movie is is done Better in the book. But israel has built a wall around their country, basically, and they have these checkpoints that they can bring people in from outside. And there's a ton of refugees flooding in. And brad pitt goes to meet with one of the leaders or advisors.

or I thought the first place, say, what was south korea? Yeah, they they fly to south korea.

Jez IT has been .

two weeks. What happened .

in south korea?

So rapid character, along with the biologist.

oh.

and the navy seal.

Yeah.

go to a camp in south korea where they had the first report of zombies.

right? Which isn't in the book, okay, yeah, that's where he gets in the plane because a lot of people had to die off, right?

They get attacked when they arrive and the biologist accidentally shoot himself.

right? Yeah, okay, yeah, yes. yeah.

And then they're saved by, uh, soldiers but now they don't have biologists, right which is a feels critical .

so so just to win yeah .

but uh so when they are there, a brad pit does end up a finding out that the infection was brought to the base by the doctor. And then there's an alphabet guy who was in prison there.

Yes.

why was in prison?

There he is. A bad guy tells .

him to go to israel.

Go is el.

And the massad has secured the his city with these walls. right? Because preexisting free existing architecture a little bit.

Yeah right. So the one thing that the book in the movie shares is this part where the master person basically says, after israel had a number of devastating attacks, which basically almost took them out, they they created a policy called at the tenth man or the eleventh man, that if a room for of people all agree, IT was the obligation of the last man to disagree. And deep dive, the most improbable of things.

And he was that man, the person that redpad is talking to. And he figured out quickly that the intelligence that israel was getting was actually a zombie break. IT wasn't code for some kind of a covert attack that was coming or something on those lines. And that's what gave israel dub.

Oh, IT was not pretty ist. They constructed the wall.

Yeah, yeah. And they just knew before everybody else, because they started picking up the intelligence from china in the room in, by the way.

you got bring in the book. And here the movies got to stand alone.

And so the outbreak is from africa. It's not from china or south korea in the book. I appreciate we're not going to do that, but it's so much Better anyway. So but they're taking .

everybody yeah everybody's welcome.

Palestinians IT doesn't matter like everybody's welcome if if you're not sick, you're welcome and there's a seen with like dogs that are snifty the people because the dogs can tell if you've got the virus or what not or you're injured with the virus and there's just bringing everybody in. Well, in the movie, someone starts singing.

They're .

celebrating .

their celebrating saved.

And the singing in unison attracts the largest hord of zombies ever. And it's scales the wall. Yes, start to take over the city. This leads brad pit on his next fleeing from the zombie in an airplane scene right where he was in his plane but he couldn't get fuel, was out of fuel er or something like that. So he ended up running with the israeli, a soldier, the female soldier, into a commercial aircraft.

It's important to note that brad pitt's character in this movie is watching what's happening, and he's seeing the zombies run past certain people instead of attacking them.

And he's also retelling stories up like the navy seals, where the seals were commenting, oh, I don't remember the guys name. Brian here jumped in the pack at the middle of them and he shot them all and they didn't even look at like to make that make that note that that occasionally he's picking up this weird thing where zombies aren't taking out a kid who's, like, huddled in the ground were an old man in the street of israel just running past him. And so this is called for shadowing kids.

He gets in the commercial aircraft, and they are in first class, I guess, at the point where they are all huddled into this little seat and the curtains are up separating the the back off of the plane, the back, more more than half of the plane from the front, and they're all quietly flying. And brad pit, of course, here's something is there is something going on in the back. And so he he quietly gets up and and everybody starts to look at this kind of a tense moment. I remember that thing is pretty.

dad. Well.

no peek through the curtain and behind the curtain is just absolute bedlam, just devalue.

I just don't know how that happened.

And so brad pit gestures to the people around him, get the suitcases. Let's are stacking them up. And so both eyes, because it's a larger plane, starts stacking up some cases.

And some dufy guy slips and knocks over, knocks over one of those two cases. Clues in the zombies. The zombies start rushing them and again, arrow right through. They .

always arrow. The lugger ish thing is a poor stop get no .

yeah ah you need one of those those carts the flight attended carts .

know you need is flexible okay yeah .

yes those flight in the court to take out anything that because things like eight tons, oh, that's when you get your have you get your elbow slapped by one of those things no, I don't the best they're deadly so the the zombie started posting through the israeli soldier is next to brad pitt who they're trying to get away and get away from the zombies is finally brad pit grabs a gade and just throw them into the zombies in the plane. Yeah, blows a massive hole of the few .

people again, lame .

zombies, humans whom ever just getting ripped out of the soccer.

But they can write brad pit and the israeli soldier, they buckin.

they buckle, they call down.

And so they were not at risk of getting sucked out of the play. I don't know how that works, but the .

chairs are fashion down pretty well. now. I know. Yes.

quickly.

fashion. Yes, bucket, yeah uh, anyway, so explosive of v compressors basically happens. People get ripped out, and then the plane basically crashes, just crashes. Bread pit wakes up upside down, bleeding.

and there's, he is injured.

he is injured now, yeah, yeah and he ends up like next to a ladies zombie in a seat that's buckled in SHE did not unbuckle before becoming example fied and so she's just sitting there IT for an eternity yeah, just scratching around making zombie noises, the israeli soldier, and up freeing him.

Sure, but not the zombie.

not the something right now and then they just happen to be exactly where they needed to go.

Yes, they needed to go to something .

carta like .

wales .

or Carter.

It's the whole.

oh yes, the whole. It's it's not the cdc. So he makes IT to this research facility and just so happens that this is the research facility where all the deadly viruses are and vaccines so forti us.

IT was like, exactly. So he gets LED in their doctors there, the stitching right up. And he's like, we ve got to figure this out.

What do we do? And he said.

we are not even there ah OK because they're telling him so we can get to any of our our stuff because it's blocked by zombies and so and he goes.

have you heard grenadines?

My new favorite ever is granato so he mounts, basically starts to plan the taking of three people the soldier, the head of the hoo that there at the building um and then himself to go to where all these viruses and every other stuff they need right I mean.

they're going there because .

had the idea he has the idea that, hey, I think the reason the zombie didn't attack that kid and that old man and that one navy seals, because they were all terminally ill, yes, with another disease.

they were either sicker, injured. And that makes IT so that they are not at home.

I think it's specifically terminally ill with the disease or virus.

I don't think I don't think because what they go looking for is a curable disease.

Well, so I think the guy with the leg problem had like cancer, right the name seal. So it's a it's a disease. So if you had like if if you just like, cut your leg off accidently, still, they're still on to you. You're injured though you that's a deadly injury. They're still on you up OK OK.

So if there's .

a another disease that would be competing with the host for control of the host, the zombies want nothing to do with that, right? This is pit theory, by the way, not tested IT.

All right? No, no. So he's not is a guy, some guy who worked for the U. N. Has an investigation.

and he wasn't investigating medicine. Okay, so he ends up leading these three people across the sky bridge into the other building. And it's just infected with zombies.

Zombies are everywhere. He ends up getting separated from the israeli soldier and the main guy, the hoo. And they, the other two lead the zombies away from bread pit. Who's able to then infiltrate into the deadly pathogen tube is tube room, and immediately after he closes the door, big old zombie one.

big.

big god, scary one, who's probably the best one. I think he's he's the boss.

amy.

He's like that the teeth click y thing and like the really good makeup, really, really good omi sense. They did a really good job. So he's like, I guess they can only see him in video. They can not know. They have the found.

They they call each other, right? So he calls back to the other doctors and like, hey, what do I take that won't like, immediately kill me and they're like, oh yeah, you got ta basically do one of these and then maybe a little bit of this every ago. And so sure enough, he shoots himself up with some cocktail of disease.

Both networks .

opens the door and the zambian see him, just ignore them completely. And so he walks back, triumphed. Or medicine, or viruses.

Remember, in the walking dead, where are one of the characters had realized that if they just cover themselves .

in the s yes.

yet always on this life, they just walk.

Carol, use that to save to save the crude like two or three times. Yeah yeah, care was the .

best and no but there was also the one with the samurai d who traveled with a omi ah mon traveled with a zombi so that SHE would go undetected, right?

Yeah so he comes back with the drugs. Basically, this is what they are calling camouflage for zombies, allowing humanity to fight back against the zombies on, proclaimed the planet. None of that that happens.

The book, not a bit of that happens. What happens in the bug? H, it's too long to explain, but but basically just tell me out and.

So human need to get their buck kicked by human, by the zombies, to the point of almost distinction. And they realized that traditional war fare won't work with the zombie. They can't, just like put down land mines because I just take their legs out.

And now you ve got this thing that's like semi hidden in the brush that just waiting to bite you, which leads to more zombies, right? So you can't use explosives. You can't use tanks.

You can't use. Why can you use tanks?

Because you just blowing up zombie. And now you ve got a head that still animated. That's now a projector, right? And then all of the good that you just created is also diseased, right? So IT IT creates too many problems, right? So what they ended up doing was they would use these dog packs so common, and his dog partner would attract zombie ords.

okay? And the the dog paces their slows zombies. They'd walk around in the big horse, like .

they're plane.

and so turn around training train. And they'd have these two boxes so they would have like multiple rose, like think of colonias where you to have a primary show, or that was Kelly, and then a backup shooter behind them. And they were partnered, yeah.

And they would. They have special firearms that were bullet like they would not fail, right? And they were smaller calibre OK, but strong enough to peers the skull of the zombie. And all training was based on methodical two seconds between a shot, but every shot must be a head shot. They were firing for hours nonstop, and they would tap the, basically, they'd have science that there are people that were watching pod bean.

For people with fatigue, they tap the shoulder of the person fatigue, the partner would step in, and they just keep going for hours and hours and hours, and they would make this four, they would make a four sided box. And the zombies would be be coming in from all sides, and they would just move them down, so much so that the zombies began to pile themselves up their corpses, which, which, which became its own barrier.

So then is the stomach started to pick over the top. You pop their heads. They were popping over the top.

oh, man.

And they were there like, the first time that the humans were actually successful.

IT took them like, and well, that pop goes the eil.

yeah. So there's lots of ways that humanity started to fight back. But IT was primarily through the use of very, very onal warfare line ranking file lines. And because they they don't have to do anything fancy, just have to hit their head, right? And they have special bullets that had like little, they're like little bombs.

oh.

so that they would pop when they would ve get inside the head. So he didn't have to be super faster. A big bullet IT just needed to get inside, because then I had a little connected pop, which did enough the image to just block the brain.

interested. They called the bullets Cherry pies, because sometimes they made them with too much explosive in IT. And the eyes of the zombies would would blow out.

And there be burning red where their eyes used to be. Who yeah what are right? Um mainly warfare came back a lot of mAiling. They had a special tool, I Cameron what they called IT.

So I thought but I was no.

I was like a million weapon that was mass produced that all humans got IT was like, center, all humans. And so everybody had one, and they Carried and they beat a billions with that, all that stuff out.

Alright.

go read the book is way Better.

What we read movies on a six category scale ranging from likelihood, disaster preparedness, uh, whether or not its realistic characters plot entertainment for an overall potential thirty points.

yes. So likelihood in this case is the zombie is real, right? That's what we claim.

No, the likelihood is whether not .

zombie is one. That's a one we're just talking movie, not the book. And fairness. Yes, israel was very prepared, but not prepared for singing poor.

poor across .

the board. Yeah, it's like a one for me.

That's what I put IT. They still had full travel, and people weren't scared enough to not think .

you crazy. They should have .

been living like a quiet place. All right.

I also feel like that no one had learned anything because again, this happens like immediately after the deal break.

So this is why is so important when people hear about other countries getting diseases, especially if it's if it's somewhere where people are travelling in and out of a ton. China, definitely. right. Pay attention.

yeah. Oh, one interesting factor from the book. North korea just disappears. So for the long gest, how troubles in there now.

So for the long time they were saying south korea knew that north korea was digin a complex tunnel system. And one day north korea got tipped off at the ozone bes, and they all disappeared, and immediately they don't know. And then after they went underground, all the seismic activity stopped.

So there could .

have been a zome. They got down there. We don't no one knows they're just gone. North area is gone, oh my god.

So they don't know if they're down their building to start a new war, they don't know what's going on. IT was that was very interesting. That was that was crazy, right? Anyway, so realism or if we prepare this one, yes, real ales.

M, so realism is the one where we have to assume that the disaster is real?

yes. So zombies are real.

Is everything that happened after realistic?

So do I have to trust that fast on these are real?

yes. And that is the premise of the movie.

The two or three, three.

well, here's a thing. If there is zombie outbreak, and if anybody who is any kind of decision maker for the government is listening to this, if you have a major outbreak of zambia, go protect all of your epidemiologists and mythologists immediately to question them.

get them in the ad.

and and very, very quickly armed there with everything that they need, right to solve this problem. They are not boots on the ground people. You bring them experiments, all right.

right?

Do not trust that some random U. N investigator is kind of light bull moment, a resolution.

He just really good at observing. Yes, he just, he pays attention.

Gorn cannot be the solution .

to our problem. Yeah.

we're not going to gore in our way out of a pandemic.

no. Okay, there there is. No, you know that's a really good point in general. Yeah like if wherever face with a calamity you're not gonna like oh moment your way out of IT.

I think that this is one .

of that very american, by the way. Aha, moment will cross that bridge when we get there.

No, but I think this is the problem when you have movies like this in this genera, where there are aid less stars in IT, because they have to make that person the hero, right? So had they have to make all of these great strides in solving what is a multi disciplinary problem?

So that's onesta why I am legend is still such a good movie because he's actually a doctor and you see him going through trial after trial there. They're planning a little fast and loose with the science, right? You just, you know, has a thereon.

He said that a little machine that that goes buzz and then spits out a new cereal for him to try, not really like that. It's way more involved than that. But that at least showed how long spanning something like that could be the trial.

And yeah, absolutely.

this is more of A I just came myself all the the diseases right now, we're gona win right now you got now you're got a cold.

So I can't give you a three okay.

two yeah characters.

I mean.

there's like there's like two characters in the entire movie. It's bread pit in the israeli uh soldier who's not really .

kind of quite IT like .

doesn't do a whole life SHE gets her hand cut off by bread pit yeah because he gets bit and he starts counting and he missed is the hand off and they he counts through eleven and SHE hadn't turns and now he knows, oh you can just cut off all good um yeah I brand pits like the whole movie literally the whole .

movie there's a lot of answer.

I mean I an.

I mean, I don't think any of the people were no, there's just poor character development, but I don't think it's necessary fully plot to need to be pitt.

There's no time to explain could endure buler could .

adam west .

rock in the rock? Yeah, yeah and but IT would all like most IT would have been .

in a helicopter .

or just anything anything with a yeah. Vindice so could .

this just be fast .

in a ferial could this be fast in a serious for? Is that what the last fast and furious is? They're going to, they're na fight zombies with cars.

I don't hate IT.

They first got ta beat the zombies in international.

right?

They're very fast.

I think this is these are also some traffic car.

No, there are some thirteen second quarter mile's office.

That's that's the luck you're scared of fast on bies. Wait until you get a lot of.

let's see, the moment that the zombie could drive cars, you didn't kill them anymore. You would have to show them respect. Maybe one of the zombies becomes family. You know, like you just .

IT could solve a lot of problems. So because if that happened, we would employ them to work in the D M. V. What cause there's zombies, shambling.

slow, very mean thing to .

say about dv everyone who slow. But then the one guy who actually was like the friend, yes, he drove a sports car. The slag.

Okay.

characters two a bad .

ah I mean. Okay, there's there's some like plot drivers here, I mean don't make sense.

Like okay.

but overall.

everywhere they went nicely advanced exactly where they were going. Yes, like he feels linear IT feels like playing carbon. Sandy ago the game, yes, you're go to Venus series, you like carbon.

Sandy ago was here, and he mentioned that he wanted to go learn about deadly diseases in the who in cardiff. Like everywhere they went there was a clue of where they needed to go. And then he went there and he got .

the thing right right when he .

went to israel. They're like the war and game in the warrant to go .

rest the got sob where in the .

world catholic that they all started dancing which .

distracted them okay .

three for plot. Yeah really okay. That's higher than I would go.

Uh, it's entertaining. It's not top .

tier like a three .

yeah I .

guess why .

are you going to .

go to .

honestly .

like I could go to three is fine. That's a twelve. Warm, warm. It's not good. It's extremely for you here.

I'll tell you what, if you like, it's not it's not incredibly grow task. There's no extreme violence, right? I don't remember, don't remember the kids .

watch the king did watch IT, but here. This is the tough thing because typically with very good movies in this genera, you don't have a list actors, right? And the movie is very uncomfortable, right? Because if to make you feel post apocalyptic c, that has to be uncomfortable.

right, it's almost Better if there's no a listers in a mood that because at any moment any these people could die.

But when there are no listers, then it's not necessarily this crowd pleasing. Everybody can watch IT. I think world worse, you could probably get away with watching IT with people who are not into post apocalyptic movies on the sheer star power of brand pit, yeah, I can. And the and the formulaic nature that went into .

the movie that is extremely formulaic.

All right? So a scarf twelve year puts .

IT on par .

with on the beach, the postman and soiled cream.

What are we getting harder on movie exactly where IT belongs? No, it's not a good zome movie.

Did we are the exhaust all of, but there's .

a new quiet, the new quiet places out.

No.

thank you. I mean, you're in the second one.

No.

thank you. okay. yeah. Well, you you don't get. I think, I think that's sure.

That's not me handing .

the listeners that we never want to watch that.

Hey, do you want to join the H R C C movie club?

It's free. We all do. If you just .

a hop on over to wherever you have show notes for the podcast, okay, you score on down to where IT says H R C C movie club. And I will tell you, vote and suggest movies here. It's going to have a link.

We'll take you to a poly when you go to that. Polly, that's gonna you a very simple question. What disaster post apocalyptic prepared this? IT doesn't say this, but you should go without saying radio related movies should we watch for the H.

R. C. C. Movie club now, before you add a suggestion, please scroll down the list.

See if what you are going to suggest has already been suggested. Just vote for IT. Yeah.

don't spot the vote.

put IT. But if meracle lesly, you have come up with a movie that fits the criteria that is not suggested, please suggest IT and then feel free to head over to the discord where there's an H R C C podcast channel and you can lobby for your movie.

Indeed.

we will not watch movies that we have already watched. The ranking .

still has some of the best and brides at the top with IT, which is completely reasonable because you, dear listener, you might not have seen some of these movies. And the ones that are rank tie are are generally pretty good even though we maintain a rank list based on our votes. In this very podcast shown us you.

I realize that podcast platforms may cut off a portion of our shown notes because they're so long.

they are very long.

So C J has created a very nifty, what is this letter box?

So what is called .

I don't yes, letter box, yes, that has an entire list of movies that we have watched. Thank you so much. C, J, and I believe as them in order of which we watched.

i've pulled up the website, say, je, I just didn't remember but nicely that so .

i'm going to run down the list and see what has risen to the time freen. See, we've watched zombie walk twenty twelve hig was got to galaxy cast away contact a quiet place, red done deep impacted fall towing and fernal war of the worlds twelve monkeys and dress plus from the past love .

and monsters .

armada .

we have a watch armetta. The one with Bruce villas is specified.

This is Bruce ll of star power. yes. So Steve brush mi in this.

but maybe don't spoil .

IT for me. It's seen, i've seen. Oh my god. Live Tyler.

yes, live Tyler.

Because are so many people in this.

do you don't want to close your eyes.

who you don't .

want to falsely .

IT was affect, right? yeah. Then flex was this .

and the inexplicable choice to teach minors to be, instead of teaching astronauts how to be minor.

So that's the quote that he asked director. And as he tells the story, the director told him to shut the F A. That was the response to bed athletes question of, wouldn't IT be easier to teach astern how to drill an astrologer than to train?

Then he's like f like when to be Better to find another Jennifer, that one you've already did. You don't have to marry .

them all off.

Oh my god, all right.

there's so many dumb parts in this movie. Okay, I remember this .

one watching .

army get wow. This one is also I think it's okay for kids to watch.

sure. IT is I don't .

know that they're going .

to enjoy this one regardless.

It's it's happening to them.

What's happening? The stack case is change, remember?

Let's go this work for stick moves again.

Hello, and welcome to the email correspondence tower and two other out buildings. This is your time, the show for your feedback to us in the form of mixed media. And the first form of mixed media is the physical mail depot to our P O box at P O box fifty one zero one zero o california and nine zero seven zero three.

I believe I have A Q S L card, which thank you, as always, to everybody who send us anything we appreciated. No, not at all. What is this? I have no idea what this is.

Oh, that is not for the podcast. Oh, but there you go. Okay, so pretend none of that happened moving right along.

That was not for the podcast. I guess. Now at this time, I did receive a physical mail. Yes.

so they gave you multiple .

questionaire.

Yeah, because you're supposed .

to fill one out yourself, and then you're supposed to have somebody fill IT out. And i'm the one. Yeah, what? Who else gonna ask? Why would I ask anybody else?

But you some .

random person give me .

to your boss.

No, so this is an A D H D screening. But so I don't know how IT involved this.

You were really serious when you, when I said to you usually get evaluated.

The question is more less one of us has got IT or both of us. So so i'm just removing myself as I wonder if the questionnaire .

are similar to the kids questionnaire i've gotten write on. IT appears to have an inability to focus.

I need to read this really quick. I'm going to hand the other one the land and will be back in one second. So IT turns out this is like a fifty something question thing.

So we're not going to go through all of that. What maybe do tennis, but the idea what this is, you're onna rate. I'm going to rate myself these questions layer. You are then going to give me what you think my rating is. So there's going to give you i'm going to read out situations and then the ideas that you're gonna give IT a zero of do not engage in the behavior.

No, zero is not developmentally appropriate for age.

What if you engage in the behavior as often as once a month when you tell him about .

the rain guidelines is not developmentally appropriate for age? One is if the rather has not personally observed the child or youth display. Looking at the job.

I think you need this one.

Okay, okay, this is you giving the child. I write that down.

Yeah, there is does not engage to be. Yes, I do not. A one is one to several times per month, which is like, how do you even know looking? I come on. H two is one of several times per week. Three is one of several times per day, and then four is one to several times per hour.

All right.

So question one on here is I am easily distracted from task by external stimulate home and in fantasy that puts E G, T, V radio extra. So I am probably a three. I have three. Yeah.

okay. The next one, what is has .

difficulty with .

activities which require sustained listening, example, listening to and following verbal directions, not due to hearing loss in .

prentice asis all capital letters, not due to in less so I would say to. Lay is pausing so. This is you're thinking of your verbal directions to me, right? Three, okay.

I fail to direct or maintain attention to important sounds in the immediate environment, eg, warning signals, timers, eeta, not due to hearing loss. I am a zero in this zero. I am hyper focused on ancillary sounds, warnings.

Anything like that? It's two. A two, come on .

to two lies. The number of times I have either been trying to talk to you in regular attention, I don't know, not here or where I go. Did you hear that? I hear. Like, what are you talking about?

No, like I I can hear a trip, an annoying drip.

These are, these are very hyper focus.

I think you that cries that no one else here like a small puppy around the house today, for I need verbal directions and questions frequently repeated. eg. Ms, part of directions, questions, needs reminders, eta.

I want to a, give a two or three.

two.

two. Okay, good. I'm god. I can at least hear things correctly, not do to hearing once I have difficulty.

Concentration ing, E, G, following a conversation. Concentration when reading eeta. I don't know because again, it's like I hyper focus on some things and then that's IT yeah .

except when you don't want to read something, you i'm done i'm .

done what I don't read IT, I just don't read IT. So what is that? Three, two or three.

And it's like, hey, josh, do you read that thing that I sent you? Hi joh. Did you read that thing I sent you about career week?

No.

lea, did you start reading IT?

There's you never have to consider losing concentration if you never start. So .

what is that?

Two two, okay? I am disorganized with my possession ons. E, G, lose or fail to find important papers, while clothing. Clothing is probably the biggest one extra that has to be yes, easily.

where? Where are our ballots? We have to go vote.

This is also your problem. Uh, I lost a audio recorder that I thought I knew exactly where I was, and IT wasn't where I left IT IT .

was very frustrated.

I don't know. A, this is not .

looking good.

I failed to remain on task to comte, complete or finished chores at home. Eg, more interested in other activities, sit and do nothing, stare at the TV exec, so first we can omit, sit and do nothing or stare at the T, V. I definitely be out. They're doing other activities. This is, this is a three.

That's a four.

Why do you .

know how much one times per hour do you know how many times like there is a gap and something like h he's gone to the passage chair.

I get some best .

work done that .

sure I forget eg. Events or appointments to return things or to do things. This has got to a three, yes, because I just I avoid trying to, I avoid those situation. That's why I don't have a four.

Yeah, I changed from one .

activity to another without finishing the first without putting things away before it's time to move out of the exact. This is you, this is you. This is you.

There is no time to explain.

There is no time to explain. This is a two for me, okay, i'm putting two. Ten, and we we're going to leave IT at ten. I have a short attention span, unless the topic task is interested, each difficulty paying attention during a movie TV program, difficulty directing attention to the task at hand, easy treated. I wish there was .

like a three and a half of so three so a lot of these though I like that. That's just not Normal.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. By the way, that this is a couple time. I'm just submitting our answers as both of us. It's a cop. It's a pair.

This is too broad, feel attacked.

are personally .

to you can be too broad and you feel attacked. She's not specific. Because my situation doesn't apply because it's specific c subject.

I'm different.

I am a unique .

snowflake. Oh, boy, well, do you have A D H D?

You might want to .

consider this is a fun thing you .

could do as a, it's a hot questioner.

This is, this is a fun couples thing you can do together.

And you know, we would upload this for everybody else to take themselves, except for there is a big .

emblazon on every.

on every page that IT cannot be reproduced. And if you happen to find IT.

reproduce, and immediately this .

goes back to you not reading directions as well, that years was to report IT back to the agency.

Oh, my god, well, there might be a hoot. You don't even know. Yeah, apparently i'm getting the the fourth level of my material license here once we feel that .

test out that is the V E thing.

No, no, no.

no. H you know what I said as as we have start studying for the V E S.

not a thing.

There's absolutely A V E test. What there's A V E test is just open book now.

Okay, but i'm .

going to do IT without the book.

okay?

It's so funny. Because what I took my test, I was and I making you guys courage at my answers like because I didn't fully know whether or not I was getting them right, right. okay? They're like we'd have to be able to read them first because I just kept at this.

Oh, you're barely like you're just steamer in IT. Oh yeah.

yeah. Oh, man, I I read very quickly. And then the moment I make the association right, bob, not second guessing my self.

Like two days ago you were having dinner with, were having dinner with the kids. You're like one of IT was Edison, he's like and then I finished and I did what you told me. I took all my left over time and I went.

I was not a time test. They told me I had as long as I needed and you .

didn't need anymore. It's a real baldi move. They worked out.

And if I went back, I know I would .

have changed correct totally.

It's like I got ta go, what's in my short term memory back?

That was that you burned IT. Yes, it's not Terry more. I used IT, I cram IT in there.

I burnt IT and now it's gone. That's that. It's forever gone.

I can't even say i'm a good test taker that because I don't get thirty five.

about thirty five, you did find you did great.

I am very much. If anybody doesn't know, I am obsessed with standardize.

Yes.

I ended up that uh, that P H D, who, uh came up with his own S A T study method. I spent hour on the phone with them because trying to roll band in a riding classic. Teacher.

just talking about test.

Yes, yes, we're talking about test. And he is the same guy who recommends to his we thought that he was recommending to his students to keep taking the test until you get a sixty one hundred OK.

right?

And every other college councillor, i'll tell you, as long as you're like in the ball park, you're like out of a fifteen and .

sixty or a fifteen .

and eighty finish, don't keep, don't keep going, right? And so there were all these rumors about things and said, right, that conflict with what college councillor or say. And so I asked him, well, I was on the of the hot takes on test. So .

let me ask .

you, if a kid gets a fifteen eighty, can they be done? Do they need the sixty one hundred? And he was like, well, that depends.

Are they in asian? no. Are you trying to are you trying to measure and stem?

Oh.

right. And he said, if you try to major in stem and that fifteen eighty, the math portion is an eight hundred, you can be done interesting OK.

But you've ve got a hit, a certain .

thresh hold for your score to be above. And I think it's fifty and sixty. That's the marker, right? But your mascot has to be the eight hundred. So you could get eight, fifteen and sixty. Your mass square is not eight hundred or you need an eight hundred and your mask are but your language score below the thresh old and you're at like a fifteen twenty so you're onna go back and take IT again OK and I was like, that actually makes more sense. I am so sorry we doubt .

give and that is why engineers are bad documentation because they all min maxed math and they just barely got above the line everything you know .

what is so funny? It's because right now I am leading this robotics club. Yes, and i'm looking at everybody. The, uh, a couple of the code is very strong.

yes. Yeah, there's two of them .

that really good and the .

son's pretty good too.

yes. Um and then there are people on the mechanical team that are pretty strong and then there's a few that are just like you're not that great and like I think i'm onna make you write the engineering no book. 你看 这 都 给我 打 视频。

I'm going to introduce to a rewarding field with an engineer. It's called technical writer. You've got technical writer and what .

the systems engineer is a test testing integration now now anyway, a technical .

writer who so that that term is pretty out of yeah that doesn't really exist anymore. That's like somebody who who would create the formalized document based off of the poor documentation that the engineers would provide to them, yeah, they wouldn't actually necessarily run a test or be A J sent to the design of the system.

So I add .

copy engineering, right.

to make them ahead of the documentation.

He just won't listen anybody. That's the problem too. He's too strong world. When IT comes this he he did um he did come down and he came and talk to me after and he did improve like his coat was Better. He he did do a number of things that he was supposed to have done.

So let let us back up. They are a they are building and coding robots that are supposed be able to pick up almost good, but .

it's squshy. okay.

So they're designing it's for that's a huge rapid rely and needs to intake this ball. And then IT has to be able to throw these balls as they catch them into four different targeted squares.

They're kind of like goals that are perfect squares.

And if you hit all for, you get a multiple er and that's how you get over like these scores in the hundreds. right? right? And the coding team, the coding grew. Patient called them a team because there's two cotters from each team. Uh they are tasked with trying to build an autonomous code to do this.

Yeah and they .

they started with this entire coral reef cleanup project that took them all the way through, like variables do right? And then I was like, okay, you did IT you all learn a lot along the way? Now apply IT .

to this problem, autonomous problem.

And so they're using a VR version of the robot to try to get the highest score they can using autonomists. and. The thing is, with any problem, you have to know what knowledge you picked up is useful and what isn't useful, right? And so ben started out, assuming he'd had to integrate everything he learned.

哦 yeah because but I think he .

was because he's liked to the feature， wanted to use IT. Yes, right. But it's not necessarily the best way to get there, right? And he would just not listen to anybody.

right.

because I don't know why and we .

are not stabbing people, not he .

got that from, but he wanted to go his own way, but that he would get frustrated in us for help and then I looked like, okay, you know what i'm bringing in your .

dad just and he he did he wouldn't listen to me because anyway, plus also I don't know the system very well and there's things that the virtual reality bot does and some of the things that the sample thing I learned after a series google search.

Yes, that the way that the actual game is played, that a human being can like roll the ball back after being scored in the general vicinity of the robot, like towards the loader, so that the the bott doesn't need to score the playing field looking for iron balls, which is what I thought I had to do. And that's how ban was trying to build. He was trying to like, turn the robot like ten degrees and then scan and then ten degrees.

Well.

what they did, I that's too much. And I put literally pull up a youtube video. And the autonomous robot is literally just going forwards and backwards and forwards and backwards.

IT would go backwards to load forward to launch backward to load forward to launch because I just assumed when i'm rolling backwards, i'm going to key up my little intake motor and there's going to be a ball there. Yes, because somebody should did into the thing, but anyway, that simplified things dramatically. So then you just have to because the goals are stacked.

Yes, there's one slightly higher than the other. So there's two pay off lanes, if you will, right? So all the board has to do is negotiate the two on one side, negotiate to the other payoff lane and then score the two there.

But there's two bots, yes, so they have to avoid hitting each other. Guess that's the other thing. It's like, okay.

that's going to be bit on the .

there's only one robot that way easy that yeah the youtube box that I saw IT picks up two balls, froze them both the same time, one a little bit hired than the other nails. Both have met one time, so they can move to the next lane and throw them both. Yeah, I like boro.

Okay, anyway, all right, let's move on. We are going on over to the voice, male animals. This is our voice mail later. What's the phone number? Somebody like to .

leave us a voice mall. You can call five, six, two, three, three, four, two.

three, eight, nine.

Let's do IT a. Its adam cassels A R.

K. I got a good .

solution .

for mike, who was asking about mapping in real time, uh, A P R S information, the way space application called topo charly alpha lima bangle Oscar OPPO, Oscar ctos o found a ctos o dcom has some really good functionality for this. I do believe you have to be a paid member, paid user, but IT does allow importing through web based inputs from the aps website, the aprs information force, selected call signs and locators.

And IT even allows doing similar things in offline map if you set that up as well. Interestingly, you can do the same thing with meshta tic devices to so set up your computer with some of the applying you mention and have the ability to receive a rs package directly. You can have those plotted to the map with no internet access.

Can you do the same with with meta tic as well? So pretty cool stuff. Hopefully you'll get some use out of that. Check out cl pill book because it's an amazing tool.

Oh, I got to try that. I love that. I am. Thank you for sharing. Appreciate you listening and giving a amazing feedback.

Is that only for california though?

Yep.

that's a problem.

And it's or .

did you come out of berkeley?

It's got another feature too. Where is he hit a bun and drop a new guns? Angeles? And then a little map the topography and after of the crature yeah based off the the mega size .

of the bombing, you just using press .

yeah yeah and it's a little little A I engine that will change the problem. Thank you. And I .

just want to say congrats. Thank you. Thank you for one of my .

my eyes to be one of the .

cases to build the test night. I was really cool and I got to sign your csc. So .

they .

decide finally. But SHE SHE a SHE face that's the first .

time I see me and that .

was really cool congratulating good, great job and we will will say seventy three and talk you guys later take care.

You don't thank you and either and my and josh and nick, again.

you're welcome wrong. Just okay.

hello.

this is K O one map of in today tonight. The reason i'm calling is i'm going I just preempt and just I don't know this is I don't know early thursday morning in the eastern time um and I just figured I would I see I have so much confident after the eighty six times I remind .

her really .

kept me on I am .

just to taking regulations lay congratulations. 有 别人 没有 来， 不是 welcome to the general。 You will take .

time so much.

Nathan. I appreciate your support of output ing.

I would like to be one of very first people to congratulate a laya.

Thank you.

Becoming kill and november six, november wiki do zo flash as a golf. Uh, so congratulations. I am passing your extra extra general for for your extra here.

Maybe another year. I'll give you a deadline next next year. Helen.

Anyway, congress again, lia is a pleasure helping you. Three, uh, tonight. So seven and three from W, X, zero. K.

thank you. Thank you, mike. so. One of the first things I did that day, yeah, was we hopped on the flex.

yes.

And then we were forwarded by an s nine noise floor. And IT was one of the first time I was feeling like pen, frustrating.

Yeah.

I can see them, and I can kind of hear that they can't hear me.

I'm almost positive that it's the L D lights that they put at the post office, particularly for forty meters. really.

What are you gonna do?

I don't know what I can do. I tried to talk to the the postmaster at the post office, and I think .

they thought that was a crazy person yeah was um .

so I don't know I don't know what the next step is because it's not like you can just call up the post office and be like, k, i'm some random guy letting you know that you're in violation of the F, C, C part blob .

blaw that's .

getting part of the government. I maybe how many have to look into IT?

You should do IT and document this in a journal day one reporting.

I mean.

you got a direction.

Find IT right? I got to do a dug. I houser start yeah and it's like.

you know, there's a work process are on for twenty dollars. I can get .

like that fuzzy filter where the cameras like panning and I think, dear S. C, C, it's me again, josh. This is day seven hundred forty five of me letting you know that the post office tord O C, california has a ridiculous amount of r fer.

Packages are getting lost.

right?

Oh, well, all right. Well, then I made some context on F, D, eight.

The post office has begun scratching my name out label and writing ronal beverage. I think this is just this is just bullying at this point.

Hey, this is Kevin mercury up here, up here, down here, over here in north G U A four K B M. And somebody had a question on how you um handle running a overly map .

if you are a users .

onto a particular map.

Bigly is happening here.

We just .

and first .

add forty second western century with bath to the board eight, seven hundred and fifty plus cyclist um all of our sad drivers support support drivers have a thereas tracers on their vehicles. We actually is too different devices for tracking in this battering. Number one, we had the APP R S I running uh so that brought up each one of the the locations on where the support drivers were located。

Um I also used A A android tablet uh that had the telephone cat abilities ties and I could. send. Cross streets and pinpoints for for incident on the OK where the .

same .

drivers needed to go。 And we also uh use telephone contact for the same drivers OK. Um now all of the more ham Operators um but that allowed us to um do the dispatch watch where the race was and also watch where of the shack drivers were and able to send the correct person out so if he want that's how we ran the race is welcomed to me and this is a Kevin from northin Virginian DUA4KB.

M. Keven, that's very helpful. Thank you. Appreciate that.

That's a hot tips. That's probably exactly what the the previous email er was looking for.

So yeah.

Hi, guys.

F.

R, say, I just did. This is the .

wow.

amazing. Three more .

states left.

That is west Virginia and tucky and alaska w reports and some of the year. So oh, you get that done. You'll feel like by the summer time of next year time, why the old guys are after this time, case zero, F Y seven, three.

excEllent. That's that's great news.

congratulations. H, we have a another voice smell from pencil or so let .

me play that a guys ham solo here. Kilo, zero, fox, rot, gae, romeo. So it's been a while, as I called in ah wasn't sure if I actually made this phone call is really busy but on halloween I was done in florida I was done in the comment there and was able to sink away and I went to merit island, which is keep canbra .

I did my forty seven state .

parts on the air activation outside of the gate of the Kennedy space center. wow. And so I had a year the rockets .

in the background .

on my cool or I say fifteen or so contact someone more like three, four and two pers in different parts with multiple Operators. But I did get the netherlands th I was running to. And so ten, watch at point a single sideband out of my ice. So no five with the twenty nine foot range of wire. And I got the netherland.

That's phenomena .

as a contact here that passed on the air activation. So you only got three states left, uh that'll be kentucky, uh, west Virginia and and I need them for both my summer on the air and my parts on the year to be finished with all of them. And so three states left, I should be probably given to those around late spring and that's the plan right now. Anyway, just want to give you little update to the hand. So OK zero F I R seventy three.

Great body. Yeah appreciate .

the second voiceful where he can went into more detail on the florida contact the activation because that's that's super cool. Yeah i'm hoping you save like a asked to the end and make like a big kind.

I want to use in the background.

You don't want to move in the background, think you're deadly. Most are so danger OK um particularly like when they're in season. Oh my god, get no.

I want to wales in the background. yeah. OK okay. sure.

OK are you? You just be in alaska? I don't .

know. I'd like some, uh, gold miners in the background.

Some point.

that goal, all right. And on to the last voice. Mk.

ah yes. IT is kilo one? My goals in seven month I was just in in this I guess podcast hides that this possible that the judge has black pen and filling.

Oh no.

I am. So I gotten to are at work. And I guess I put the back at the rungs, buying IT my back out .

so well .

days later. So I saw a is a gestion on the intra C C uh pcs in on discord. Everyone come on and try um about someone that you have the issue in there.

I guess I looks like they are strengthen up there back muscles and they didn't have that. So maybe i'll try that. So and then with him, real stuff for recently, I I don't know it's just I was have issues with .

my communi .

come three day box inconsistent time yeah S W R as usual. And before I fixed by putting like um .

clear .

clock on there, so a box to go around stuff, so A V I just swap out the internal and get steel back up. Um so is the thing. And if that doesn't work uh from my inside half of year, if that doesn't work or probably try something else so with a different set or something. So this is key one like I was saying. So three.

and that's not a bad idea.

Have you heard a flex seal?

That's yeah, i've going to kind .

of keep bringing this up because i've never used flexible. You see.

I think I have something in my office.

Oh, man, let's break something flexi. Let back together and test .

that I like we are going the flexi will have, as I believe, the clear one you know Better it's dealt flexes. All all .

right. Well, thank you, Nathan, and thank you to everybody who called him to answer that A P. S. Map question and to congratulate me, I appreciate the all the support of love IT warms my heart.

Now it's time to a send the looming ing tower of email.

Hello, hello, welcome to the tower. Hello, hello, welcome to the door. Let reading your email and just is going on you. Thank you for your email we hope you like .

indeed you can email as I lay at hatching dot com, send us your ham radio journey, little notes of what's going on, what's interesting in radio, maybe something new that may you want to break the news here on the podcast we're love to hear IT. As always, ham tactical dot com is our merch store for the podcast and the youtube channel, which any purchases there help us out of lots, we really appreciated. But for all our dear listeners here on the podcast, if you have a merge idea, something funny, you gonna get the a if you go to the website what we're not looking for, and you send IT to us in the form of an email layd hata tics dot com, and we end up making IT, or laying, so making IT.

putting IT on the site, we will send you one for free hot banger of a logo for the hr cc coffee club we should .

make for the coastal .

kan coffee and tactical dot coffee.

Everybody check IT out, our coffee of the month program is going strong. Layer has new logos for the next four batches. They're going to come out.

We're very excited. I used .

the waterfall.

嗯 to make a .

waterfall。 I did see IT was very yeah. I like IT, that's pretty good.

I look, I was looking. I like.

what is this test called again?

We got .

to do. Oh, yes, there at the bottom we got to do a coffee logo with like a hathor in something. Four out of four.

like a thon berry .

something, but then he does not like four out of four would would drink every hour. Something gotten mentioned for being the higher fever. thanks. thanks.

All right, well, the way we go OK .

to me because .

percy meals, I not go.

okay. And this comes from Gabriel.

Hello, josh lea, thanks for last week suggestions. I'm going to corn, quote, build the armies like hermies like this weekend. And yes, last week's email was actually one of the first emails i've i've just written into.

Ask, what coax should I get for the station? P. L, five, twenty nine.

I need around the four feet. And I don't know what coax. I should say four feet.

Yeah, I was thinking of just stopping a random spectrum person and just asking for coax. But I should probably get good coax considering that my antenna placement is not optimal. Can you give me some suggestions with Prices that aren't too expensive, please?

Thanks for your help. Gril, what was the radio he with and what frequency hold? So the the frequency the highest frequency is going to be the most paramount here.

If you're talking about U H F four hundred and forty meg hurts and higher ah that we need to get you very low loss coach so you're likely looking for nothing under l or four hundred. Uh the times microsoft's ssi polonia abr industries will all have things L M R four hundred and higher and by higher we're talking the lowest amount of laws. I'm going worker scenario here.

I'm assuming U H F now very important. no. And for talking H, F, you can get away with like an R G A X. But here's the caviar. If you're antenna is like an end fed half wave and you're not planning on using a counter poys or a radio wire, then you actually need a decent length of coax, probably about twenty feet or so, because the shield of the coax is used as part of the internet.

If you put a four foot links of coax into the transformer box for a fourteen to one on on for fed half wave, IT will not do very well. In fact, you you probably will get some ori fy back into the shack by doing that. So i'm just throwing shots in the wind because I don't remember exactly what the set up.

Plus coax four, four feet. I think you said four feet of seven or four hundred, you probably can't even buy a thing like that and then they're gonna custom cut IT and then terminate yourself. You maybe can get like uh a jumper that'll be six feet, maybe ten of feet that probably won't be more than box IT could be as highest thirty five depending on who makes IT yeah that's that's about.

hey Gabriel.

yeah go to your .

local ham club or hop on a local repeater h that's about and ask somebody if you .

can buy .

four feet of people well then he's really .

enough to terminate IT though, right? He's probably going to get some like loose cutting of coax that somebody kept and he'll have to do the terminations on the ends. It's not hard.

But yeah still it's probably easy to get the coax. But then you have to buy the cramping tool in the ends and that's the cramping tools going to be like our twenty box on amazon. And the ends you can buy probably on amazon .

to but you know what I crier .

comes in handy IT does yeah yeah in .

the shack on your hair, you know? Alright, thanks, career. Let us know how that goes.

The the next year will titled per your last podcast sault I ham packing order or who is the biggest packing? Comes Carry, as many people have called you the hand radio of power couple. I don't know if that works.

Now that you're general, sure.

I need to figure out a como name for you like benefit. And Jennifer anniston were benefit. what?

Yeah benefit. Not gennifer .

understand .

a .

gennifer gardener yeah.

that the next we call IT. Do you put announce .

on the car or a jah Better?

Yeah IT looks like.

yeah.

would IT be like joe? Joe .

worth joe .

anything?

I have really been enjoying the movie reviews. I recently watched love and monsters. That is a good one, that is IT is a real feel good.

It's a good one. But the incomplete in the main character still bothers me. He gets Better. Yeah which I really enjoyed.

I would not have even thought of looking at IT had had not been for you guys. So thank you for that. Well, don't thank us. Think whoever suggested IT by going to the poly and looking up who was suggested.

I do like the crab seen at the end of good.

The jellyfish thing was pretty amazing.

And the snail.

yeah, yeah.

The whole thing that some of the animals are actually like, fine, yeah, nice. There are just huge and kill you if you mess with them.

Details are nice.

No.

they are.

They eat your plants.

Oh, that's true. But they are great with garlic and butter. Although I thought you were a bit harsh on soiled Green IT should have gotten five bonus points just for the iconic phrase soiled. And another movie is what got me into the post apocalyptic and this topic film genres the other one was the boy and his dog.

Yeah.

that I would, however, like to point out. The one problem I find with a movie corner, IT, is lobbying in discord. As an example, I would never push for a boy and his dog in discord.

I think that a boy is dog should be watched of its own accord. And I find lobbying for movie such as a boy and his dog very full. But enough said on that subject. Hear me out.

I see what you did there. He's loving in the email layer. Yes, he's not loving in the discord.

That's fair. That's fair. Uh, but hear me out and i'm hearing .

you so many videos .

that are on like real and tiktok are now just taking scenes from old movies and old T V shows to put them back into like they're like trailers for the show so that .

you will .

go and stream them.

It's it's so smart. It's so ridiculous. But I I have now watched you. You are dirt doing the sterling. You have started holding down the tiktok to crease the speed to you've gone to play with ah .

I wish IT faster. I am like .

it's already a clip of a clip of and and it's part one of fifty five that you're going to go.

I learned by watching sterling man.

I saw you doing that. I'm like, is that how that they upload IT this way? No, no.

I do. Some of them already .

upload log update so that.

like whatever, the detectors won't catch up or they'll distorted the .

video a little bit. Add a color bar.

something which is a ridiculous because if I were a major studio, I would want as many people doing that with key scenes as possible to drive people to watch my my property.

And I anyways, I think people aren't leave in tiktok. I think there's just going to watch fifty .

parts of hit for the entire movie. I've done that. I know a good teaser though. They really are ridiculous and onto radio content.

I like some of the others on the ham radio crash course email tower are planning on spending a good amount of time on a boat. I don't know that i'm going to circumnavigate, but it's a possibility either way. I'm sure they're going to be sometimes that I am a long way from any kind of landmass. Of course, I am planning on having E P, I R B, A backup satellite phone, a marine single sidebands set.

A thing .

goes without saying that I also planned to have a hao as other as per other emails. I understand that antennas on the water are not sure bailly wik. And that will be up to our experiment, however.

However.

let me run a hypothetical by you on the radio itself. You are going to be in an emergency, and the life of your family is at stake. You have a budget of one brazza an dollars.

You may be fifty miles or five thousand miles away from your nearest contact. You have no way to know at the time of the emergency what the atmosphere ionosphere conditions will be. You do not know what mode will work best, C, W, phone, digital.

You don't know who you're going to be talking with, a man or woman or a boy and his dog, nor do you know what band will be best suitable. You must make this contact to save the life of your yourself in your family. What radio do you choose? Money is no object.

A conward T. S. Nine ninety is not out of the question. I suppose you can think of the question as what radio might work best barefoot or more likely, which of these radio choices might work best with accessories such as an amp. The future is in your hands.

It's so tough because radios in the ocean don't really get along right. The all the salt inly air, like all that stuff. It's just not a good environment, right?

It's just too moist. With that said, you definitely need to have a marine H, F radio, right? You're going to have the V, H, F stations as well or the memory channels.

But you really do need an H, F radio. And IT needs to be something that can handle the environment. okay. So there's my there's my cave ot got to have .

that guess who's gonna porter on monday? Across the water.

Yeah i've i've already got some options. I think, oh, me you but why would you not? We're going to do I just hand the make you and you do the contact.

okay? I guess I can. It's a like I make a contact, you make a contact, we both make context.

Oh, okay, I was hang out my friends but that's .

that's why that's why that's fine.

Whatever one of our friend, there's these highly coveted on the beach cottages ah that are owned Operated by this the state of california yeah and IT is nearly impossible to get them. People queue up as and just keep refreshing like it's worse than getting a college prerequisites.

When do we check in .

to not check in? They scored IT for a portion of veterans day weekend, and they invited us out for monday. So that's very nice. We will be bringing koby and other things to celebrate .

our friends first. I mean.

I can if you want.

of course.

Okay, guess that's what i'm doing sunday.

No, you're going to do to tomorrow and then it's going to sit in the fridge for like a day and a half.

Why does that have to sit for a day in a ha.

oh my god, have you never made any day before secret?

The secret? Fine.

totally down with all. But the secret is got to sit in the third, like twenty four hours.

to required .

all of IT, the different enzymes at play of the the sour cream and .

the onions.

I love onions. I just love onions. I love them.

I love .

that for .

you.

I, there's no wet. I told you, forget. Oh, okay. So as far as an H, F ham radio goes, you could almost get away with anything so long as you're appropriately waterproofing. And so it's in a waterproof bag or it's in a waterproof case when IT sounds like you're looking for something that may be is gonna inside the cabin of the boat.

right? Yeah so .

considering the boats are not very big um spaces at a premium, you may not want A T nine ninety or some big you know desktop option. You might want to consider an icon seventy one hundred because you can put the body somewhere um closer to where you might have the grounding material for the other side of the anti na or your ground plane and then you could connect your graded line directly to that body and then you have this nice little head unit that kind of looks like an alarm clock very small that you could put in an Operating position that might just be a little shelf with the microphone hang up the side of the elf.

But with that radio you can then capital is on V H F, U H F, assuming you also have the marine radios and the sad phones and all the other stuff, and then you also have H F capability as well. And that radio has a built in tuner. It's one hundred watts.

I should do pretty good actually. You can, of course, connect USB to IT. You can do digital modes as well. So that's you got me in a situation where i'm like an all in one radio might be the way to go considering spaces, a premium.

Cory encourages everyone to get out and vote. He does some other campaigning about his political position, which since his pass the election, I don't feel the need to read. Yeah, especially because I don't wanna inflame anything. Thank you so much. very.

Imagine the fight we get up in the email. Imagine how long the protest was that.

Love your large curry. K, C, zero. K, R, K.

treat.

I love. Get any van trees. All right. Thank you.

sorry. Thank the next gmail is titled more code. And this comes from Douglas bee. I don't remember if I sent the more equipment pictures from the north CarOlina at transportation museum, but here are the first few, yes, please.

And here the last few pictures of the more equipment is your premier on learning morse code reminded me of these. If you would like more pictures from the B. M, let me know. Show jojo drops in the podcast .

channel laminated card with the alphabet. K, there is a code australia, or for, I guess, little buzzer and a light for people to practice. That's fun.

Oh yeah, a lot of oscillations. Morosely tors great. Got IT.

Thank you so much. I very cool. All right. The next emails titled Green eggs and and this comes from john. Hello, I thought I thought I was a bug bite and I, but I just pulled a tick off my neck.

Oh no.

not on common, but surprising. This time of year in northern new hampshire, the fall of just passed peak, and I was taking my dog on his daily two mile walk in the woods outside my house. We can walk for an hour and not see a single car or person.

That's amazing.

I discovered your podcast recently and have been been binge listening to the past episodes while on my walks. I'll thank you. I hope you have a great walk. And if you're faltering.

you can do IT .

you not just keep on walking.

you oit to your dog. What a fantastic reminder for something like the prepared this corner where we remind people that your local areas is going to have things that you need to put in your first state kid that other people do not. Yeah, a tick remover is a unnecessary for many people.

And often I bet a lot of people forget they have none on them. And so there's just yank ticks out, ripen heads off, get infected, just not the way to go. Here's my radio story.

I bought a pair of belfer B F F eight H P last spring as a prepared this step, and I realized I need to learn how to use IT so many buttons. And acronis, I found that almost all the beginner radio learning media are focused on amateur radio license. So I decided to get mine in a couple of weeks ago.

I pass the technician exam with thirty three out of thirty five. correct. congratulations. And that's casey. one. V, M, P. Exciting for all my years on sixty seven years old, and i've never really known any hands and have no real Operational experience.

I think the only time in my life i've used two way radios was walkyrie ys with my wife and kids. There's a local club that meets once a month that I planned to go to the next meeting in november. Maybe i'll get some help in insight there.

I I really hope you do. I hope it's a friendly group of hands for you. This is also going to sound name, but I have not yet made any contacts, local or otherwise.

I've not been successful in reaching a repeat from my rural home with the hand held. Hopefully an antena on the roof will fix that dorm more tinkering with the settings. Yesterday I received a radio gram from a gentleman and nova scope welcoming me .

to her radio.

That's so cool. I got picked up by an Operator about an hour drive south of me and post mailed to me. I liked up their call sign and emailed a, thank you.

Note that is so. That is something I really do love your ham radio. Just our life is not full of enough pleasant surprises no you .

know so or in that form yeah like we get social media type of stuff but that doesn't feel as real as like a yeah a little note in the mail, the traffic note, particularly of a radio love that and .

it's not lame that you haven't made any contacts, you know especially if you're in a really rural area and you're using a handheld no yeah and you're doing .

IT in exactly the right order is it's kind of like fix in a car. You start with the stuff that's cheapest first and then build up always in tennis the most important thing. So get an exterior in tennis up as high as you can.

And if you find out that your radio isn't cutting IT, what a lot of people will do is they're you'll drive closer to the repeater and see if they can bring the repeater up with their handheld, like get out of the car, see if they can bring IT out and then they can kind of get an idea of how the effective range of the repeat is IT might be possible that you might have too many trees or a hill or something like blocking you completely if you find that the external antenna does work with the ht or maybe IT doesn't. But you drive a little bit, you can bring IT up. It's possible that putting a fifty watch transmitter on that external antenna would be the next logical step.

All right? All this lead to my getting more excited about the hobby. I'm currently researching and planning my shack with the base station and antenna on the barn out back. But sorting out all the technical options figure in out what I really want to do, emergency preparations versus hobbing and what a buy to get that going is not simple what sound either or you can emergency prepare and hobby yeah well.

if you're not having fun doing IT your prepared this items, they are probably not going to be very useful yeah. But you're not going to you're either not going to take the time to train to use them so they are not going to be a very effective um or you're going to have a bunch of junk that you don't know if it's good or bad because you don't care that much about IT, right? So focus on what you care about.

So back in my baby wearing days, there was something that was essentially a baby wearing lending library because I was such a personal thing you're wearing in in on your body. So it's not one size fits all and it's not one size fits all babies, right? Some babies like certain types of rap, the versus Carriers of versus slings, you know that kind of thing.

And so there was a baby wearing lending library and uh, some businesses would run them. So you would pay essentially a rental rate, right for those things. And then um when you return to buy, you could apply that rental rate over to um and then they were non profits that were set up just so that people could try all the baby worrying to encourage baby worrying. Why is there not a hand radio lending library?

I have soon because there is plenty of establishments that you can just go into and use the radios. Yeah but that that that wouldn't .

be from your home location now .

um that's true. I'm assuming it's because it's it's not ever just like, oh, radio, I guess if you're like establish if you already have an antena up and you already have a power supply and you're literally just wanting to .

try other rating, lead me to buy next question. You're in china, location specific, but you could theoretically swap in any radio as long as you have your antenna set up dial again, right? Because that's what you do with the step I are. You've swapped in and out the seven or five flags .

yeah but I I also have a series of switches that allow me to switch where the .

code and and it's actually a very expensive and tennis .

oh yeah step.

But if you knew that there is a you know certain frequencies you wanted to get on and you set up, but whatever intend to met your budget to reach those right then of radio lending library, be pretty helpful.

right? sure. Yeah.

club should do that. Either that or you could encourage your local library.

what libraries .

lending library and thousand .

dollar radios.

Well, I mean, they lend out all kinds of musical equipment.

Yeah, but that's not OK a thousand dollars, you know? fair. I don't know how to worth the logistics that on that, unfortunately.

I mean, for our library because it's connected to the city. If you don't pay your library, fine, they build you and it's built to the same department that does your utilities.

No, no matter what, you are still my surfboard.

the .

surf. I'll get you through the power company.

Our library also tried power. Our city also started a seed library. At the library, you don't have to return the seats. Okay.

just keep them back. Here's my god.

you .

have A C, G. One seed interest. What's the vig?

It's not a seed loan.

It's a live sea loan short location that you've cut .

an entire seed black market. happy.

I want to put three guards on the kentucky derby. Wanna try factor?

alright. Well, john continus, I decided to write you because I received the current issue of make magazine. And there's an article on how to build a router restarted using an arduino no no to automatically reboot your equipment periodical seems relevant .

to your discussion of remote. Um yes, there okay. I love making things, love IT, but I have found that often times making things is a time sink.

and we all like that.

And there's there's literally like a thirteen dollar device and design that plugs in IT goes in between your router in the wall or your switch plug and it's connected to the wifi. And if the wifi goes away, IT restarts the wonder.

It's like.

do that. But yes, making things is great.

John, signs are all I have to go. Speaking of making things, I need to tend to the fresh sarto backing .

in the .

evan beautiful. yes. John casey, one. V, M, P, P, S, I have chicken s, even Better.

Man is painting pictures with words.

I'm surprised you have not mentioned chickens as part of prepared this. I have just, just one.

Let me help that.

And now i've got a dog that's smaller than a chicken. Yeah.

what what a not prepared dog. We we bought .

their eggs are not Green. But when he comes to ham, I am seven.

three body.

Thank you for the email. Thank you. The dog is adorable .

of a little .

teddy bear.

And just the most .

liable IT literally .

as players a tedy wear.

Like you want me to hear now, I will hear now.

yes.

It's fine.

Chloes going to love her.

Chloe, try to buy its face off. Today we're .

going through the introduction process.

IT is a process.

I mean, IT IT could take months for IT like, yeah.

wow.

But then I would be great. You have a little baby, little baby to play with.

This is a small as sheep ever. Could be a hurting dog right now called he's just .

a hurting dog SHE did go and try to you know sit by the door where he .

knew the pop this .

place to .

strike SHE SHE .

wasn't in striking physic SHE was an lounging physic like SHE get star yeah okay the next day and titled ham soup no, this could go one of two ways, you know. This comes from Allen listening to earlier podcast pensylvania here not a penny.

The soup you for is called .

ham pot pie. What so I was talking about a soup that has and potatoes IT .

doesn't up with .

a wide yeah OK or I guess like how made like .

the rough yeah google .

will have good recipes most in most of them you make your own noodles that a that's all delicious. We have a major problem in both making sour doll and dumplings and IT is that band is going to free. I i'm halfway thinking about just converting the whole family to go in for you.

We're already like there, man, you're cloth. But I mean, i'm not going to stop eating a hamburger with a bun. I don't care what anybody says.

but then i'll have something includes free substitute and go on now have to go back to the original Edison is also particularly sensitive to gluten free pasta. I'll be like this pasta .

does not not right?

And there's a really good gluten free poster out there.

I mean, oh yeah, it's not horrible. I we are commenting that gluten free stuff has come a very long way yeah still to this day, the best gluten free thing you can buy and I can almost tell you you you will know it's vastly different than the original, but it's good in its own way. The slides of hanover small pretzel yeah.

it's Better than regular.

They're different. I don't know that they're Better. I think they are. They are so crispy, hey, you know, so good which .

reminds me you don't want to ride on the santa flow, right?

No, okay. Are they on there for like three .

hours at least?

Can I set up a radio?

No, it's like twelve people. No, no, no. So i'm just going to take the voice.

I mean, I do have the flex. Now which .

layer .

has determined is the only way that i'm now OK with going to so .

many things you like, you are going really.

And I just playing with the radio.

my phone well, Allen says, thanks for all you both do I got my tech in september.

Did we give him .

a let's do IT congratulations did not make my general, but i'm going to get IT after the new year with gordo's books help. That's great. Plan seventy three aline, three Z, Q, F, well, thank you so much jellon and very i'm very excited for you. Good luck on your general test and thank you for the recipe suggestion. Now I have a name .

for that soup.

but has to be the pencil one, because I have looked up and a pie and IT just comes up with pot pie.

It's the ultimate, I am part by .

the next monitor merch idea. This comes from zc, oh, right. Hey, john lea. Zc, K, E, A, Z, Y Q here, that's k zy q here .

with what is causing in K, I.

I don't actually is okay because .

there no .

number in IT OK.

I haven't .

mess with the fense in ten yet, but I have the wheels turning on some ideas after hooking up my m comm three and realizing I have a much lower noise floor across the bans and anticipated I love that for you. Yeah so won't know. That's like i'll do some experimenting and follow up later. For now, I wanted to throw an idea for some much your way OK. I thought I would fit the community of ham slash, propose to make a shirt with a pig walking on the time legs in corton, quote, full kit plate, Carrier combat boots, ballistic helmet mechanics, gloves towing and m four style rifle eeta.

Hopefully I describe .

IT as well as I can see in my head. And in case you haven't guessed by now, this creation is a ham Operator law that .

can't wait to hear .

your thoughts. And thanks again for all you both do for the community. That is pretty funny. There are many illustration styles that that would not look at in the problem .

that happens with a lot of shirts and stickers and stuff like that is if you make things too small, the detail is you don't even want detail IT just becomes too difficult.

Thank you so much. I love that. Yeah, that's a good idea. If if I can find a way to make IT, you will get that shirt for free. And congrats again on your noise floor.

What if I was just a picture of a pig that you had, like a plate Carrier and the right phone is back in a big fan?

And well, the next .

few minute .

is titled long beach. And that comes from Douglas V I flew into long beach for the first time. I flew into a into the la area for work. It's probably my favorite l airport. O if you have the chance to avoid L A X.

Yes.

having flown in to so many other major cities, airports, L, X is an embarrass.

It's not even that bad though. It's, I want to tell you why L, X is not that bad. Yeah, get out of the thing very quickly. There's not a meandering maze of terminals and shuttles and all that. You get off the plane and your you get off .

the plane and IT feels like you in a third .

world country, no, but you get outside. I don't know what this is about airports particular.

Well, I know what IT is. I mean, in long bees.

either you get out of the plane and you're out get out from around. Don't do that. Yeah something to take you about. Don't roll around. But what I saw somebody do that the other day when I was getting on the plane, somebody like, ducked under the tape and just started walking. I don't even know you like, bro.

why you would say that L A X is easy. That is the worst place to go. Drop off.

pick somebody up. But i'm not talking about that. I'm talking about getting out of the airport like you are out. I I don't have i've never had a problem with alex X. I don't getting to the plane when you're leaving.

The lines can be long, the tsa lines, but when you get yourself some free check, which everybody should be check, get to recheck your end fast. There is very little walking from the T, S, A to your gate. There's you.

You don't have, you don't have to take a shuttle. You don't have to do anything. Use your at the terminal, and that's IT.

It's very easy. L, X is a pain for lots of reasons. The traffic is one of them. But once you are in front of your terminal also.

it's perpetual under construction and nothing seems like it's getting any Better. it's. IT feels like there's just some like nefer ious gang that is shutting down sections of the airports so they can use IT for if they are underground business.

It's easy. Like I don't know, I guess just because I used to IT, but you get out, you walk outside, you immediately just start walking to the uber pool and you cross the street before you get to the spot you have your uber ordered. It's nice to have a little bit of a walk outside in L A is area um just to get off the plane and stretching legs. I I don't really have a big problem with that. I don't I still like L A X are a language more sure of course.

super geta airport.

That's I mean sure.

Well, Douglas also a sent in about removing ham radio, listening to the remote. A radio topic has started me back into remote, into my F T eight nine ones, so that I can do H F from the hotel, one away from work. I think I have emailed about this before. And an eight, nine one may not be remotely without more cost than its worth, as in buying a radio with with more capable remote ability.

Yeah, you can be a little tough extra.

Lay a, have you tested for your next license class? Uh, if you're talking about general, that was done. yeah.

And he also has comments about productive shrimp. IT seems as though as if you got shrimp as a prep to help make your family. They are tiny. They are not.

They are not even like cocks, like the little tiny bit cocktail shrimp size.

They are not work. Are you shrimp? The rabbits of the sea, uh, they must be shame, have to be because that's the reason that they're one of the cheaper seafood to buy.

But I bought different color trim. Usually when people buy neo cardinali a, you buy in a single color so that when they reproduced, they reproduced in the same color. Sure, I decided I wanted a skettles tank. All the colors, right? And they have reproduced in their own color, but also in what is what would occur in nature without somebody breaking them to have a .

couple of two tone ones in there.

others a numerous ones. I think it's just interesting in the end.

they're all gonna up Brown, I mean, but some of them have ganged up based off of color they have, which is crazy.

All the gallows ones kind of hang out together. All the Brown ones hang out together. The blue ones are the ones that are kind of like split and they swim through the water column. Uh, but I was I was telling my sister about her his shoulder a pressure SHE was like, you are undoing years and years of selective breeding is generations of selective breeding.

And i'm releasing .

them in while I wonder how they would do and my heritage Parker or something.

the job will kill them.

That's true. That's true. Uh, so no, they are not props to feed our family though I have looked at that very cool. If you have any amount of land where you are actually trying to homestead, there is a company that has converted shipping containers into shrimp farms.

what? And IT produces so much shrimp that you can just turn me into a business, but you would be in shrimp just whenever you wanted. Trip, trip, trip. I'm a big fan. I don't I don't have space for a shipping container of trim farm that if I did.

what if we just put IT above our .

house with the pellets? Yeah.

the that's what we were going to power. IT.

Well, dog v says, I keeps saying that I will study for the extra test, but have not yet to start in earnest. When I do upgrade, I will be extra for a reason. Douglas, well, thank you so much.

Douglas, appreciate your thoughts. You, the next t militiating. Greetings from ohio, and this is from dublin. We love ohio. You've never been.

No.

I mean, we love people from ohio.

I like ohio.

but I know the admins. Lots of them are from ohio. All great guys, highly, highly intelligent, highly .

technical just and then you asking about you like, don't come here. That's that's what we they're so smart they're are trying to keep ohio, right?

Because then we're going to go to ohio over like, hey, californians, ohio, great. Everybody come with us.

They don't that .

they don't I don't want that for ohio. Dee, join, how do you first time riding into the show after listening to the podcast for over a year? Welcome to the tower. dolen. I've wanted to join the e mail segment for a while now, but I listened to the podcast while I welled set com parts at work and usually get distracted when I get home.

Hey, no.

thank you for for doing that good work.

Are you .

gonna us? You work for .

space x then we're going to take IT.

All that is a lot of welding .

thrown about that.

Let me start off by saying how I shall appreciate the two of you and everything you'll have done for the hobby. Oh, thank you.

Thank you.

The H. R, C, C community is one of the brightest, friendly as and most helpful communities i've ever come across. I think that sentiment we try hard.

Furthermore.

I can tell you how much I appreciate, how welcoming and inclusive you'll have made the space. I have many hobby and interests that aren't, that aren't a very friendly place for a gopi C L G B T. Persons such as myself .

and IT means that, well, me, man, you are on that's .

on with many layers. Lastly, josh, thank you for your willingness to educate and share information in such an accessible and engaging manner. Outside of the crazy tornado s we experience over here in cornland, you have had the largest impact on me getting .

unless are .

getting license. Congratulations on getting license. And thank you so much for the kind words yes.

come out. Make sure you are going to invention. You got no excuse if you're ohio.

As I told you, when I got to shake your hand at a convention, I ve had a chance to meet a lot of my favorite artists. But the two people who i've been star struck by being you and the guy who taught me had a fly fish on youtube brand of man river outfitters.

I'm so sorry, then I rude josh.

I didn't know if somebody .

presented themselves very golf at invention.

I I don't even think you pay attention.

There was that guy in the hot he was, excuse me. So this is a .

triple that was actually me in .

a cost yet so many gears and cogs on his top hat was amazing. So many pairs .

of goggles.

steam powered H. F. radio. With that out of the way.

I wanted to finish this off with a small journey of me and my friends getting into amateur dio OK, like a lot of people these days at all, started with everyone buying a bowing of as on. Out of curiosity, I started watching your videos to learn more about the ends and outs of the subject, and eventually started listings on the local repeaters. From that, we tuned into a local area, sky warn net, during a barbecue on the evening when we noticed the sky after the north was looking mad. Sketch hearing in real time, where, when and what was happening with a tornado that was on the ground was the pivotal moment for me and my best friend getting attack a month later.

Wow, H I cut my own. I am stuck.

Congratulations to you and your best friend. In short order, we were both swallowed by the whole, by the wonderful world of amateur radio. Six months later, we would get our .

general wow. congratulations.

Twenty days later at convention, we would both be extra.

Wow, the first, a good job. congratulation. Fact, IT wasn't actually a torn to that, was just noa doing a demonstration for sky.

Wow, so far I ve been having a lot of fun with a more scientific and technical side of things, having astonishing poor hearing at the age of twenty seven. Digital modes have been the most intriguing. Has even got me back into programing after a nine year hiatus, where I made a python script to think my system time with the U.

S B G, P, S. Device as my first project back on the heart. Oh, that's clever. This is a bit, a bit of a long wounded email. I are fine, but being under a wilderness od for a living gives you a lot of time to yourself to think with the intro now out of the way, i'll hit you all up the next time with some conversation about getting new people into ham radio and joining a great club that's active but doesn't get together to play radio often.

Okay.

awesome. Thank you. Once again, Dylan. P. S, I still get a good laugh every time I think about you and all the icon people jokingly scarfing at my best friend as we were standing with you in the eye booth, as we were excitedly telling you how I bought my seventy one hundred, and he bought in eight nine one as our first H F. Rags in the flea market. Absolutely here. Okay.

I I distinctly remember that now. Okay, got IT. If that was in front of a nova, you would definitely make a face. All in good fun. All in good fun.

Healthy competition. Yeah, of course. Yes, all right. Well, didn't think you so much for writing in and man, you, when you put your mind to something, even your best friend just knocked that out. Couldn't be me. I realized that from technical to general, to be three years.

you call IT .

technical.

So so i'm .

not surprised .

that I went to I, T. Technical institute. Help me with V, C, R .

repair.

I also make sure to business management or accounting.

The exam I have to prepare this corner and IT comes from the north col. propper. Greetings lay and judge.

Let me start by saying, I love the podcast. Thank you. Thank you. I've been listening for the Better part of a year now, and don't miss an episode. I really enjoy most segments of the show, and the prepared corner is one of my favorite things.

right?

I did, however, take issue with something said on last that's fair. The idea that if there is a civil war that only one side has all the guns just at the nail on the head, he called me out. It's fine, but listen, what i'm saying it's about that there is no guns on the other side OK. I'm saying that you are outgun because of the number on the number of armed people on another side.

I definitely agree that in certain parts of the country that is true. I don't know that most of the parts of the kind of really yeah okay.

Well, then that might explain the result .

of the election. Have you heard? Have you heard of gang crime?

That's not what i'm talking about. If you go far enough left, you get your guns back. I think I was not a good thing.

By the way, i've not talking about the lake. I'm really a big democrat. I went everybody to be free kind of that. I've talked about computers. That's the joke.

I think a lot of this false perception about one only one side having all the guns might come down to where you are and where you're from social groups party. I think one side having all the guns is probably a common refrain on facebook. But if you get off social media, even go to a more left leading site, such as red IT, you will likely see a whole different .

side of the story.

But nobody, he's talking about guns in the k, the nail .

gardini a, we should ARM all these shrimp.

What this could they do?

You think a shrimp like a, maybe a group of ship could could control in north n american arms of all?

Go back. I've got to go back to nuke maps.

The reality is, a social media seems to polar ize itself into absolute most outspoken people are often the most. Hard core in a very specific direction.

You know what though? The algorithm, I think, is what has rule.

And I don't know the most extreme.

It's what is shocking. I mean, this is what was happening with a just local network news too.

You were getting what was Jerry spring every talk show like Jerry spring was the most polar ized extremes because IT got rating.

oh yeah.

And that the algorithm is literally built on that. So true. Whatever gets ratings, whatever gets I balis what you're seeing. And you're going to see the most polar ized extreme things because that's what people watch.

I respect your perspective as that of a so called proper, where I live in far north n. california. Almost everyone has. Again.

I know we don't have a lot of guns down here, but I know that the people who do have them have .

a lot of so many left. This political leanings have several or even what would be described as an arsenal, along with thousands of rounds of five point five, six mile ter and nine millimeter ammunition, not to mention rim fire and other calibre. I doubt you will ever make IT out this way as I am in an extremely remote area, but I would love to take you shooting at a local public range and show you how we do IT here.

That would be amazing. My uncle.

we have a public range with rifle and pistol sections with no range officers, where you can practice freely. We can even just go out to the woods and shoot freely in many parts of the county. That's not as this county is around seventy percent public land. Oh, that's like almost organ.

Yeah, yeah.

yeah. I just wanted to send you this message and let you know that there are many leftists with prepared mindset, and some among them, some of them among your leadership at listenership. I'm certainly not hoping for or expecting civilian and rest, but I will continue to prepare to protect and provide my family in any situation that should arise. Thank you for correcting me and writing this email so that everybody who listens to the podcast knows that the left also has guns.

Yeah, at the end of the day, again, this is not a political soil box or anything like that but you talk to any liberal person and conservative person. I'm seem like random regular person, not like again, a curricular of what you think that person is. You know, I have you have more in common than you don't oh, for sure.

But you know I think a part of this is guns are actually very demonized.

H, in done. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I total.

and I I fully respect when you a more rural. A, there is a functional reason for guns, right? And so everybody has them, but don't hear. And I think in the majority of metropolis areas, which is one of the reasons why I actually am pro electoral and get a open and cannot warm, I am great electoral college. I know people say people vote, not land. But we're talking about if the whole country was decided by densely populated metropolitan areas, you're leaving out swats of people who the very people who are, you know.

growing our food. The example I give to us that there's more land growing the food that the people in the metropolis area are eating. And those states have very unique business characteristics, culture transport that does not line up with the metro.

But kids do not here can't even raw a gun.

It's crazy.

You you cannot finger guns. You cannot take a stick that you found in an l shape formation and pretend it's again like which is actually very natural yeah.

it's all all kids just do that.

yeah. And the very weird thing is that you will have birthday parties where, say, you do like a nerve gunn party or a laser gun party or a water gun party. There will be families that will be like, now my child is not allow to use any guns .

like it's a water gun that's .

a laser gun and shooting light.

I'm sorry, my child of the empire.

So yes, my opinion is very coloured by what we're seeing out here. So thank you for correcting me. I very much appreciated.

yes.

Ah, so the norco proper signs off. Thank you. Vote for what you do and for the many, many hours of entertainment your podcast has provided.

I look forward to IT every week since the the norco proper. Thank you. Such a, such a coordinate discourse.

yes. Appreciate love. IT. The next ema is titled a new general, and this comes from dug. Hi, john laa laya.

I'm sure i'm not the first, but I wanted to say congratulations on passing your general test. The other night, I felt really honor that. Mike asked me to help with her V E session, and i'm glad I was able to sign your cc.

The H R C C V E team is great, and that was a lot of fun. You did fantastic. Thank you.

Good job. My only regret is that all of us, based on wearing halloween costumes. That's okay. I was when talking with you after the test, we all usually hang around after the session and just shoot the breeze like that. That is a really nice and welcoming way.

Oh yeah.

to bring somebody into the hobby you enjoy, your more than welcome to join. You should both, you both should be VS as well in all your spare time. Having showed me that after the test, you did take our suggestion and got on F, T, eight as k and six.

N, W, Z, slash, A, G, I fired. I fired up the W, S, J, T, but didn't see you. You could get on local two meter repeaters as well and sign like that.

Just a brag. Of course, IT was. I mean, you don't really do much for f.

that's why it's great for my first and force, because I can be doing in the back and combating wo, i've been doing hamdy of this whole time.

Look at all. Look at all those contacts. Got a catch. O, F, D.

that's IT. I've been hunting .

a lot of total lately with a lot of contacts with the black swan amateur radio club and ohio. Oh, now that my show season is winding dana work, hopefully I have more type to activate as well. I have several locations in my mind that I haven't been to before and are fairly close.

I usually run either my superintendent on a tripod or a hamstead on a magma. I do have an n fed half wave that I used in my activation with a six a while back, and i'd like to use that more. So we'll see how IT panned out. I wonder how reais doing SHE was on a very long camping n trip.

yeah.

Congratulations again on becoming a general. And i'll look for you both on the air. Thank you.

Take care. And seventy three. K, B, A, M. You didn't ring the bell for me.

I gratulations .

thank you. The next e mail, titled halloween costume and this comes from Gabriel. Hi Joanna.

It's gril K E to E E Q. Again, my last year know is little rushed and dated. So now i'm writing up to follow up email. I'm amazed at how much the Price varies for coax. I need a very short amount and i'm looking at this coax IT is I will pop this link open and show josh.

I'm looking at an amazon link.

It's a bingo ham radio in tanna adapter S A male to U H F S O two thirty nine female R G fifty eight cox jumper cable.

That's a box that's that's not that expensive. It's not i'm sorry to tell you.

Oh no.

that's so it's probably not going to be low loss that .

only cost eight dollars. But here's coax at dx engineering that cost forty four .

dollars o let take look.

And this is D X engineering, four hundred max, P, L, five thousand and nine low loss, fifty one coax assemblies. D X C, four hundred max, D X zero zero six. Okay.

forty five dollars. So let let's put this in a perspective. The first one looked that was one meter that's six feet. okay. So it's actually three and half eat the last one.

so it's twice so .

but also the coax we just looked at from dx engineering is the four hundred max, which I I think there arguably are trying to say that it's like L R four hundred. So it's gonna be lower loss and it's twice the length. So the coach itself has doubled the Price is not quite gruder Price.

Um well, the first one was eight dollars and this one was forty four.

right? Yeah.

I still waiting for my intended arrive. I bought this vertical, and i'm going to show josh the vertical of you purchased this three hf multi band, H F V, H F, eighteen meters, six meters, three point five to fifty megahits wide band and amateur bile radio telescopic and china.

Okay.

what is that for? Seventy nine four is going .

to vehicle or what is he doing with that? Does he say.

yeah in a previous email OK.

it's okay. Just you don't have you don't have to go back if it's in a mobile, uh, make sure you're doing appropriate bonding to the body in some form or the trail or the the hitch or the tailgate or the back match or the hood where we are touching IT. If it's for home or portable, please make sure you have enough radios. You can always use more radios at that type of antenna.

All Gabriel continues. I still go to a treating, and I dressed up as a belfer. A lot of strangers thought that this was a calculator, even with the obvious antenna. Here's a pic of me in costume. I hope you get to read this soon, and I will show .

josh .

a picture of gril.

That's amazing. That fantastic.

That is, I feel like I need to make josh a.

that is a radio.

I like IT.

Well done. Thank you so much, Gabriel. Um hopefully that answered your question about the varying cost of coax.

I hope so.

All right. The next emails titled my house is haunted by a chicken and this comes from alabama Andrew, you can even call IT a poultry guide or a foul spirits. I plan on calling an exertion to help you cross to the other side. Congrats on making IT.

You did IT.

So what are you going to do with all that you found power? Here's a little movie I hope makes IT through to celebrate. If not, I will drop IT into D H R C D scored.

So we watch the video. Ander, thank you so much. I think you also oppostion IT on discord.

Thank you for making me the poll bear. I really appreciate that. Um yeah all right.

And that's from alabama. Andrew K. Q for A P. T. Thank you.

Thank you.

The next year was titled finally on the air. And this comes from shi dear layer and that other guy.

that's me so .

much love shade d and nine S R C. Here today, november second, twenty twenty four, I was finally able to get on the air since my last email. I have bought A U S T eight one nine nd 17 and d which is just had its first use today when I activated， put the park d zero for two, two with five watts and a ten meter half wave dipole.

And a good development of hope. Most of my contacts were with U. S. Station on the east coast, which was a complete surprise to me. I made run fifteen contacts, two which were parked to park.

beautiful. Wait to go. go.

That's a very successful first activation. If I don't say so myself.

agree, good job.

Hope to hear you on the air sometime seventy three from SHE d and nine S R C. thank. The next email is titled air arizona poter rove and come from Douglas.

I'm planning on a bit of a poter roof. Not exactly sure when at the moments about five hundred miles round trip, my question is about the highlight national recreational trail U. S.

One, one, one, twenty three, and the tonto fish hatty U. S. Seventy three, eighty three. Would I be able to do that as a double? The hatred highline trailhead and the hatch y are about a half a mile apart.

So you'd have to look into the boundaries of the the full park, which I think is the hatchery. The highline trail needs to intersect into that space. That's how the pot is generally work. So trails don't have a wide space, if you will. So IT has to go through the park .

to be disappear. Okay, well, doubles also has a comment about H F.

OK.

Congrats on taking your test. Thank you very much. I will find something else to teach you about.

I only tease the people I like or is very nice if you want to get on the air. I have a twenty meter and forty meter antennas. I have a harmonic on the forty meter antenna with six meters.

But I have yet to test IT. And that's from Douglas fee. Thank you, Douglas.

The next t mis titled general Harrys are in order and this comes from George. Congrats on passing your general test concrete you and that's from George. Kc one. T Q F.

Scare me.

but thank you. Thank you. That's so sweet. The next email is titled one last go before I pack IT .

in maybe oh, okay.

And uh, this is from Simon the overthinking him OK. Hi, sorry for the click bay title, but that's how i'm currently feeling, but i'm hoping you can help. I currently work portable only with an old g ninety, but i'm gifting IT to a local ham who's just passes test and has a new warm baby so his money isn't going on radios anytime soon.

That's very kind of generous of you. So this is my problem. After years of playing radio out of a backpack in all weather, I want and need and or need a home.

H F. shack. I can't have a permanent antenna outside under any circumstances. I have no chance of setting up a remote station.

I have a fifteen feet by six feet garden at at the front on my ground floor flat. Nothing can be higher than my six foot high hedge. No cables and gutters, nothing and trees, which there aren't many. Anyway, nothing to look out of place.

My three story buildings are surrounded by other three story buildings going on the saying where there's a hand, there's a way i'm trying to come up with a plan or two so i'm thinking in a toast one twenty eight on a ground Spike within eight with eight ground radios and or a magic carpet or something like an alex loop or an f loop through point out with coax running through the open window because of the other building and flat above me, I wouldn't be going over the thirty one. Max either's of the antennas would do the job, I think. As for radios to buy for use with the loop, I would look at the lab, five, nine, nine, tx, discovery, or the icy seven or five.

Elections aren't sold in the U. K. For the twenty one, twenty eight.

I would look at the F, T, seven, ten, and just turn the power down after a couple of years, working portable only in the rain, wind and more rain. I live in the U. K.

I just want to come home, turn on the rigg on and place some radio in the warm for once. I'm learning C, W, so working relatively low power isn't a problem. A compromise station that works is still a station that works.

Any ideas? Our thoughts on the above would be gratefully appreciated. Cheers, Simon. The overthinking.

So I think the a toss option would work, of the loop would work too. In fact, they make loops. Kalian has one where you can remotely tune IT so you don't actually have to go out and keep adJusting. But you do you will need a links of wire that can get you away from the actual loop. You did say you have a hedge though, and even though it's only six feet up, you could run a wire in the hedge and that would be basically invisible, right?

right?

yes. So I don't know how long the hedge and sure, it's not very high of the ground, but you are in the U. K. And so for you something like N V I S or you know what little take off you might get might be good enough to even get you into another country because you're in the U K.

I don't know. Tell you to try, Simon.

Yeah, and i'll give you a couple of option. So usually for people that have compromised in tennis space, putting up multiple compromised in tennis and then having the ability to switch between them can often mean you might find the right antenna for A A particular contact and you might get out way further than you think.

All right. Well, hopefully that helps. Simon. The next year on the title, just a plea for tolerance. And this comes from vick. Hi john lea. I've been away from the podcast for a long time due to a job change, plus six months ago, I had won half an e bike accident.

So sorry, there's a lot of people getting into electric mode of convenience accidents.

I mean, they go much.

they go faster, like those a little electrical uni cycles.

People are going to that, a unicode cle. Man.

I know you love una cycles.

I ended up with a broken elbow, four broken ribs, a pell vis broken in three places and a minor brain injury.

Oh, no.

fag. I'm so sorry. My first place is for everyone to wear a helmet if there's any chance of injury. This is something i'm a huge sticker about with my kids.

Like because of their ages, IT becomes a more common that parents are totally fine with their children, not using helmets. I am still such a sticker. If they're on a school or if they're on roller blades, if they are on a bike, they must be wearing a helmet, please. Yeah, I who even if you're .

walking fast yes, I knew Better since .

I work with dementia and brain injury clients for eight years. But IT was only six miles and a gambled and lost .

to a pot hole. It's always some mundane thing to where people can get totally messed up. Yeah, do always wear helmet.

Except for my ARM, which is healing slowly in a few brain injury symptoms. I've bounce back pretty well for a seventy three year old. Well, six miles on an e bike at seventy three.

I mean, you're you're living life to the max. so. Next time, helmet, yeah, that's a very good advice.

Thank you for the somber reminder. Anyway, my main place is for more tolerance towards some Operators. We all know our demographic is pretty up there in years.

And along with that, we are going to have some folks with declining cognitive tive abilities and outright dementia, or in my case, of brain injury. Any of us who have had elderly family members know what IT is like to see someone decline. It's difficult and seems like they are abusing us at times.

But most of the time, this is beyond their control. There is an Operator I spoke to today who has a youtube reputation for being the retest person out there. But over the last two years, i've had several nice rag shoes with this ham, and i'm asking for some tolerance to everyone.

I'm positive this person is not trying to be rude. There is something else going on. I don't like rude Operators any Better than anyone else. But josh's recommended for years has been to just change the channel and move on.

And that is the best way to handle IT since hambro a is hopefully a family chalked IT up to a family member who may not mean IT and just move on. None of us know what another person is going through. This is a very kind thing for you to bring up. And I don't want to discount anything you're suggesting because they do think that people should give others the benefit of the doubt.

okay. But but I will say that if .

you have a family member whose behavior has become an increasingly rude and you do believe that is a result of dementia or bring Angel .

or something.

do not let that go. You don't have to cut them off or be mean, but you should address the fact .

you should try this.

that they are behaving unusually, because if enough people tell them, then hopefully they go get checked out, because sometimes you don't know.

Yeah you can went a different direction than I thought you're going to go. Um the other thing to point out to is there's no um there's no license level for whole monitor. There's there's no level of your license that allows you to police the hand band that's .

not launcher monitor. no.

I mean, you can make an F, C, C report. And if you are a volunteer, sure. But that we all collectively are not the cops of the air, right? There are pathways for you to make a complaint if you need to see the fcc.

And we've talked about how to do that effectively. And you can put in a nice word to be like, this is an exactly what you want to be doing on the air. But if he goes any further than that, just move on. Like just make notes, record what you need to and then just let the let the fcc handle if they need to.

I'm going to be quite Frank in that there are people that I have known in our city for a long time. One of them must have in. As he has gotten older, IT started to experience some severe dementia because he will completely lose IT and be completely out of line.

And I just cut off. Yeah, that's IT. I mean, you don't have to take the abuse. I I don't think that's what thing you say.

That's not what you think. I know that .

um but I also don't know that you're doing the person of service by not at least saying something to the effective european extremely rude i'm changing .

frequencies yeah you can .

tell them yeah yeah and so that they may think twice in whatever kind of ability they have and how they speak to people going forward.

You you .

know because IT actually doesn't serve the airways to over the airwaves to let people be rude regardless of the reason.

I I guess what i'm going with that is it's not because i'm trying to stop people from being hole monitors. I know that there is no ultimate power that they have unless you're gona go violently rip the radio out of the guy's hand, right? There isn't actually much you can do, right? So the only thing you're helping yourself by just avoiding IT is your own mental health. That's really what you're saving.

I'll vick signs off. I listen in when I can, but I miss the days when I can listen to all of the podcast, even the please take care and keep up the good work VC. K, zero, P, U, P.

thank you. VC.

thank you so much. And now what's time?

It's the final email.

The final email is titled cox burial and grounding slash bonding. This is confusing because this email was sent to me and you and then Jason and radio two point o also responded.

So he's just sending IT everybody.

I will be running coach who is from that? okay? I will be running coax in doing the grounding and bonding at the ranch in a couple of weeks. This is the ranch in texas. Would IT be OK if I ran the coax in the same trench as the bonding wire. I may also be running the ground rod buried hha zon tally if i'm unable to drive IT and far enough vertically, I run A B R two, forty two, eighteen X, A, T, C Normally would IT be good to didn't bury IT without any do IT?

Um so yes, you can IT depends on the manufacturer though. So as always, I am not the seller of the coaxes, nor am I going to warn do IT so make sure whom ever you're buying coax where you fully understand what the applicable use cases for IT and what they cover um like A B R I know pretty much as a good standard for a lot of their coax. I will say horriston tally bearing a ground rod is acceptable, but I still needs to be down x number of inches and so you should check the N, C code out for that to make sure you're following whatever applicable you know, rules are there? codes?

I'm not sure that Jason responded, expecting me to read this response.

No, maybe not.

I don't know. But he did send IT to Douglas.

me and you, okay.

So should I read IT? Does they .

don't listen that josh guy, he, it's an answer.

What say H, A B R coax is all direct berry. I believe mp is not. So I would put the mp coax in a conduit unless you get their direct berry style. But if you are putting IT next to a wire, I would put IT in a can do IT also.

that's also good. It's it's a bonding wire though, so it's going to have a direct connection to the ground. So Jason's .

answers .

totally find to, okay.

that work. All right. Well.

excEllent. Well, everybody were back. appreciated. Listening, sending those emails, voice males, physical males. And yes, even sometimes the one star reviews. But thank you, everybody, for communicating with us.
