I went to my PCP today for a follow-up after my late April ER trip and hospitalization. I did have to get both ears cleared of ear wax buildup, and that was not fun...but I now can hear again!! I see my eye doctor on the 17th, and my cardiologist on the 22nd. The Home Health Care nurse from the hospital will be by tomorrow morning. I have to call the pharmacy and order some OTC Flonaise for my sinus drainage. I was told since I did the home Cologuard test, I won't need to get a colonoscopy for 3 years, and we all know what a crappy mess that is (hi hi). A rare high risk of severe weather and tornadoes is to my west across north Texas, Oklahoma, and Kansas today and tonight...Arkansas may see similar things in my area (Arkansas) on Wednesday, but as of now, the weekend looks nice. Speaking of weather, it looks like this will be an active hurricane season...weather geek Ryan Hall went above what Colorado State University had predicted. I'm glad I'm not along to Gulf or Atlantic Coast. I had left the computers up this past Saturday, when I went to the local college to do a ham radio license exam, thinking the storms would not get into the area until after I got home. We were about ready to close up (4 examiners, but no candidates), when a lightning strike occurred just outside our building, and my heart sank!! So, we loaded everything up, and I got home a little bit later, and shut things down. After nearly getting all my stuff zapped, I'll now shut things off before I go out on errands, or when I need a nap. I heard that Gigaparts, HRO, and others have bought out the remainder of MFJ's stock, so after May 17, when they are to cease on-site production, they may also shut down. Too bad another company didn't pick up the supplies, and keep them going. ** NS2B: GE All. Didn't do much radio wise. Last week, I was pondering the firmware change to a TYT MD380 to make it an M17 radio. Discovered through diligent research that it's just not quite ready for primetime so I'll wait on that one. Still using the mvoice program on a raspberry pi for M17 - that works fine. It's mowing season - I swear I just mowed my yard and looking at it today - it needs it again! Planted some Marigolds today. Looks like planting season came early this year. Was down at the race track yesterday. American Endurance Racing had an 8 hour race down there. Plenty of fast cars! ** NT5R: Hay Daryl and everyone Busy week, we drove thru near New Boston late Saturday night. In Georgia now visiting brother. Granddaughter wedding on the way in Broken Bow Oklahoma Saturday afternoon Thank you for the info. Bob said you had message for me. QRZ page should show my corrected email address and county location now. Scott from Huntsville saved my girlfriend's life Saturday. Long story but can share if interested. Wedding was on way down, in Georgia for couple weeks now. Brother may need stent for heart. We possible returning thru corner of Texas or possible thru your area. Will check with NHZ for more info Lived in North Texas for long time and know some hams in that area. Thank you and Bob for making net possible. ** KX4AC: GE All. It has been a quiet week here. The weekend weather was good, except for a little rain early Sunday morning. I have been tweaking my packet radio station; I have everything starting automatically on a reboot except the winlink server for some reason. I guess there is something wrong with my systemd setup. (I hate systemd!) It will probably wind up being something stupid and obvious when I figure it out. Other than that I have been doing more photography than radio lately. Got the pics from my recent vacation organized a bit. The local ham club meeting is next Monday, so I won't be here in person next week. I will try to send an update. ** Replies from N5VLZ: Bob, the grass is growing like mad here as well, with all the rain. Lloyd, KC5FM, uses M17 on one of the nets I do during the week. FB on the car races at the track, and the Marigolds. Charley, thanks for updating the email. Please drop a note to Greg, KI5NHZ, to let him know your status this weekend. Since I don't drive or have a car anymore, due to vision issues, I'm not sure if we could do an eyeball QSO, especially considering my nets during the week, and medical appointments. Plus, Lyft isn't cheap, with a shortage of drivers right now. Carl, FB on the rain. I talked to Doug, W3HH, in Ocala, and he said they need rain badly. GL on the packet station setup. Rick, KA2BSM, also does photography and ham radio. Just email me a summary for next week, and I'll put it in the scribe. ** Daryl, N5VLZ -- Little Rock, Arkansas Please See My QRZ Bio For More Info
