Now maybe I can come visit both of you guys! Been to Tallman's house before and have had dinner with him and his wife. Very nice people and 100% friend to me, Tallman is Good people!! Hope all is well there and tell the wife I said hello for me. I need a vacation anyways, so maybe here soon I'll be getting my ticket and will be able to talk to you guys all the way from here through repeaters or if you have an Icom radio we can do D-star maybe?? I know Tallman has a 7100, and my local pal just got one as well. Might make me break down and get one, or a 7000. Either way, sweet radios. Sorry for the babbling! Have a good morning to both of you gents.
And Fogdog, just buy the wife a new lamp or 2 to replace the ones that are acting up. Good way to get something you want as well!! When Wife Happy, Life is Happy, for us anyways!
73 and God Bless.
