HRN 436: Finally... a Real Show

/

So we move to 10pm Eastern/7pm Pacific… do one show… then do a bunch of ‘No Show/Not a Show’ shows off schedule for one reason or another. Tonight we finally get back on schedule, and David and Jim aren’t available. Jim is still galivanting around the US, and David is sleeping after a big public service event kept him up all weekend.

So filling in, we roped in Jason Johnston KC5HWB from Ham Radio 2.0, and our ‘Midwest Correspondent’ Kyle Kreig AA0Z, on his phone from Spokane, WA where he was attending a DX conference. I’ll call it a ‘general conversation’. We got started extra early because Jason had limited time, and he ended up staying for almost 90 minutes anyway!

After Jason and Kyle excused themselves, I played some video showing my extensive ham operating on our recent trip to Canada for our Rocky Mountaineer adventure. I’m kidding - I barely got on the air at all. But I did some.

This is the PROMO PROMO PROMO, which, as usual, is its own show.

If you want to see video of the vacation in general, I’m posting what I call ‘raw video’ (really slightly edited) of each day’s activity on my ‘vacation video’ YouTube channel: https://YouTube.com/GaryPearce. You’ll find a Rocky Mountaineer playlist, along with playlists of other, similar ‘barely edited’ videos from other trips.

HRN 435: No Show COVID Show (Oh No!)

Gary developed COVID just after returning from his Canadian vacation with Cyndi KD4ACW. Cyndi got it first, and is quarantining in Calgary. Gary slipped back to the States before developing symptoms and testing positive. He felt good enough to do a quick ‘no show’ show early Sunday, not knowing how he might feel by Sunday night’s regular time slot. David was available, and a drop-in from ‘East Coast Correspondent’ Marty NN1C rounded out the crew. Marty’s not to happy about being demoted from ‘host’ to ‘correspondent’🤨.
