My 2yo said "Tally ho dumb dumb head!"

I think that will be my new battle cry.

Hello again Narwhal and Narwhal adjacent entities!

Vance, @N3VEM here:
Another month where I won't be able to host the formal monthly net, as I continue storm repairs. Feel free to swing by our node and/or the Pride Radio Network however, and chat with each other!

Good news on my repairs though, is that the new mast is installed, so all that's left is getting the antenna reinstalled, and all the guys and hardware in place, so hopefully this is the last one I'll have to miss!

Every so often I remember the time that after high school wrestling practice I had a sore neck and my fairly puritan aunt who lived with us offered to let me use her massager. Sure! I said, at which she left the dining table and came back with what was most very obviously a dildo.

So yes, my aunt probably saw an ad for "personal massager" in some random mail order catalog, and with no idea of it's actual intended purpose, sat around rubbing a dildo on her neck and shoulders😂

Was visiting a site that is running some beta firmware for the product I work with - it is a local cable TV supplier. It took every ounce of my self control to not dumpster dive the giant piles of 1" plus hardline that was in their dumpsters out back 😄

If I had seen it before we started I may have asked, but I didn't notice it till I was circling the building on my way out.

One step closer to back on the air - some folx in a Penske truck dropped off the replacement mast today!

This weekend I learned 2 lessons while working in my front garden:

Lesson 1:
The fiber going from the curb to my house was less then 2" deep

Lesson 2:
It's pretty easy to cut a fiber optic cable with an edging shovel.

#HamRadio pro-tip

WSJT-X decodes way better if you unmute your receiver's audio.

Stay tuned for other wildly helpful ham radio advice.

Half way there!

Pardon the dusty/dirty chicken coop roof, but I figured you all would tolerate it because you get to see the beautiful Luna #Moth that just hatched in there!
