Good morning from almost the west coast. My middle child (Older Son) is visiting with me here in Carson City for awhile. We had a couple of nice days last week and spent them over at a local park. I setup a SOTAbeams mast and wire antenna and played with the KX3 driving a Virgil Stamps MiniPacker HF amp, which will produce 30-40w, depending on band and drive. I was able to check into the Noontime Net and a couple of others with a wire and 30w phone. Then the winds and rain, now snow returned. So we are flying some toy drones I bought (in the house) and learning to fly them line-of-sight. He’s studying for the Tech exam and I think he’ll pass it. It will be administered next Saturday. > It's actually kind of fun to be roaming the house at 4 AM.

I’ve always been an early riser, but not that early. However, this year the time change really threw me for a loop. I’m dealing with a very ill canine friend and that’s not helping. She is scheduled for brain surgery to remove a tumor the first of the month. I’m hoping she makes it that long. It would be good to have a few more years with her. I work part-time for myself now as a consultant (engineer). So, I rarely HAVE to go to meetings and I like that just fine. Now I think I hear coffee calling… 73 all...
