EV> ^^^^^^
EV> I ain't meaning to nit pick but 11-16-17 was a Thursday, wasn't it?
YES it was, you're correct and the same error is on the top line of this
message. Nov. 21st 2017 was a Tuesday. Spooky!
Thank you very much for your observation. Now I have to find out where
that wrong name-o-day is coming from. Suspicions must be checked.
I did now check everything I can set from the operating system, but
there's no way to tell the OS the weekday name, so I'll probably have to
reboot the machine to get at the BIOS settings.
Thanks again for pointing this out.
EV> I didn't know He only needed to get a Digital TV SigGen to work on
EV> the newer gear.
HG> No one expects you to know it, but your friend should have known.
EV> That QSO was many, many years ago and what I wrote about Him was
EV> what I thought I remembered hearing Him say.
EV> ^^^^^^^
OK.
HG> Tube testers were out long before production of tube TV's ceased.
HG> A TV-service shop usually had a stock of new tubes, so it was easier to
HG> plug in a new one into the socket of a suspect one.
EV> I have a few spare Tubes in a box for Amateur Gear and Stereo
EV> Amplifier.
So do I even though I don't have any 'tubed' sets anymore.
EV> His YF (Wife) (the Disbursing Clerk) into allowing Me to get.
I didn't remember that abbreviation but it's five years since I had one.
EV> Have You noticed if there any lapses or delays to the transmission
EV> that You are listening to when You're using any of those Digital
EV> Modes wheather during a QSO or You're SWL'ing the Band?
HG> I am not using any digital modes except A1A (CW) on ham radio!
EV> What TX/XCVR are You using for CW?
A Drake TR7 for HF, a FT-290R for 144 MHz, an IC-402 for 432 MHz and an
IC-202 plus transverters for 1296 MHz and up.
EV> I've thought about trying to listen on 20 M to see if I could find
EV> someone using Digital Mode on the Ham Radio Bands.
EV> It might only be scratchy noise, instead of Donald Duck sounding
EV> Audio. If anyone reading knows what Freq. on 20M HF that the Digital
EV> Hams are on I'd appreciate knowing, so I could listen either on the
EV> 520 or My 2-B RX.
Forget it. To listen to digital voice you need an adapter installed or connected
to your receiver.
