Monday

Checked into the Waterway Net, but messed it up because I was the last person. (I won’t do that again.) I was worried that I hadn’t tuned the radio before the net started, it turns out I had nothing to worry about. My SWR was about 1.4 and that represents over 90% efficiency! I checked my current antenna length and it’s about center of the band, which is excellent for voice and digital. The other two bands are more to the digital end of the band.

Made some hard boiled eggs and downloaded my O2 readings from my finger attachment. We had tacos for lunch and we worked on our piles that have accumulated on the table.

Listened to the sermon and forwarded to the team. Talked about last Sunday just a bit and maybe about someone to take this over, Larry and I are not getting any younger.

Friday, where has the week gone?

This week has been a blur… Monday/Tuesday it was just beautiful outside. We’ve been to Longhorn’s Tue/Wed/Thur this week. We had Chili Mac on Monday and I wasn’t too enthused about eating it two more days. I’ve been on the radio every morning and i made big progress with the digital modes other than FT last night. As though I needed to spend more time on the radio than I have already. Got a message from one of the grandchildren, he’s not really happy with the distribution of my father’s estate. He probably doesn’t have a clue of the sheer difficulty of having the court in charge of the probate. Dog Show is next week, but I’ve not seen any E-Mails but it warns some about the weather.
