I'm psyched. An old friend is coming in from Chicago and we are headed to the Colligate Peaks Wildreness Area for some serious camping.

Finally, I get my promoton at work. This means no more working outdoors and hello air conditioned office.

Now, if I can just get a raise with that promotion....

Oh, I used to live in Park Hill.

Haha I think I'm more likely to call the El the Metro, as I actually used the train system in DC.

Thanks for the advice smile

Today I was working in Aurora (just east of Buckley AFB). I had ben watching an approaching storm slowly moving towards us. From the start I though to myself "tornado" but it just looked to weird. It was like a big dust storm with rotating clouds above it. The storm was moving to the North East (typical tornado track is to the NE) and a...

nice plug above me ..

i never worked SO-35, but i heard it was pretty good.. yup UO-14 went bye bye about a year or so ago, that satellite was so much better than A)-27.. A)-27 is stil up but very very weak, and is hit or miss.

lok for info on the amsat.org website on AO-51, it is currently TX'ing at about 1W but will go to more once t is checked out further...wow!!! it can go as high as 7W!!!


As far as the ISS goes, i have worked it with a discone antenna with a 2m mobile set to split mode (145.8down/144.49up) I once got MIR on my HT, that was nice.

Lately i have been trying the FO series, with my FT-817 and a portable 2m/70cm beam. so far so good.

Sunday my AC went out. Trying to sleep when a bedroom is 85 degrees is nearly impossible. It got fixed this evening.

Praise to the AC god.

On Saturday night I made a rare apperance at a co-worker's party. I tend not to party with my co-workers because they take it to a whole new level. I like a good party, just not the kind where they tend to go. They did have one cool thing. They had a HUGE block of ice with a snake like carving in it. You pour...

How many other people out there are working full time (67 hours a week) and doing night school?

I like what my class will teach me but I don't even have time to breathe. The good news is that it will be done in Spetember.

Looks like I gotta put off camping until fall. I can breathe then.

For all those times I had to go to the basement for a Tornado warning, I have never seen one. Until today.

I was working just south of my apartment when I spotted some weird rotation in the clouds. They were swirling and sucking up like a reverse whirlpool. Never seen that, even on discovery channel. I called the Fox network here to talk with...
