IS THE CYCLE IMPROVING?

You couldn't prove it by me but I'm sure someone would say so. I still listen on 7.209 around 10-12 every day but mostly only hear distant stations bleeding over, The Texas/New Mexico etc bunch thats usually there , sometimes is but I can rarely hear them. Bad time to have a band for me as I'm home so much right now with this Congestive Heart JUNK and slow Drs. but I have a new one. Should be faster, he knows why I signed up!! My hobby trading/buying/selling ham gear has picked up a little and it gives me something to do that I can do!! But fighting these band on the weekend swap nets is usually terrible too. Wish yall would show up on the 3.870 Friday night swap net at 7:00PM Central. Its been really slow, then we have two
on Sunday, one on 7.245 at 9:30AM and another on Sunday nite at 7PM (this is all central time BTW) on 3.922!!! Theres something Ill bet a lot of you didnt know if you are new to my blog/website. Its more like newsletter. And on the top left side is the click on to take you to my for sale/trade stuff...dont have much and gonna keep it pretty low this year as I dont know yet how quick I will heal when they decide what to do to my heart. But I will find you what you want at a fair price too, I may never be the cheapest, but Ill always be safe and no worries on deals. Despite what you might read once in a while from some guys I have "shot out of the sky" with their lyin' ways hihi. We have national qrm'ers, tune up'ers, and just plain asses that try to interfere with our radio fun. I say , if you know who they are, "the whistlers', "the speak in tongue'ers", the "tune upers" TURN EM IN to Riley Hollingsworth.
Politics is a subject thats heating up , but it really belongs on BLOGS not on the radio, my opinion. Though its hard not to bug "the other side" when you know how particularly radical some of the Democrats are. Some of my very best friends are Democrats, but I dont wanna live in Hillary or Baracks world....That scares the hell outa me. Come to think of it, I dont like any of the candidates...Maybe we should let the 'final 4' rule by committee and have 3 to 1 vote to "make it so"...dont tell me why that wont work, I really dont care....Im gone for now...hope yall will address this if you want to either thru posts to this particular blog or to my regular email address which is up there somewhere....73 Murray Neece K5MDM Odessa,Tx radioranch at qth dot com PICTURED is our famous "warm up announcer" for the Traders Nets,

If you cant hear us on the radio, you list by sending me an email and you can usually hear it on the computer. Go to: http://www.3819khz.net/listen.htm : and follow instructions to bring up the Dallas reciever, it usually will hear us all,even though we cant hear each other

SPECIAL NEW SURPRISE ENDING....READ IT
Which was my bar by the real University of Texas, that "Theres more old drunks than there are old Drs. "Then Willie picked it up to... Probably quite true! And I have another quote, "Never Use Two Drs. for one purpose", one of em will be be covered up with patients, slow and inefficient and not particularly communicative with the other one. And that spells trouble my friend, with a capital T. My Dr.s have managed to screw up my kidneys while trying to get the water out of my system from Congestive heart failure. Ive looked at all the blood tests, they (my kidneys) were fine til this heart failure thing came along. Now we cant finish the heart failure testing (angiogram) cause my kidneys might not be able to handle the radioactive dye thats used in the test. So reverse the medicine and the heart starts getting flooded again and blah blah blah and damn them all!!! If I live thru this I promise Ill get one cardiologist (seems you need em after 65) that can do the whole show!! Prescribe the medicine and do the cuttin' if necessary. So Im still sittin home on pins and needles waiting for one or the other Dr. to say come in to see, lets see, hmmm, looks like 2 weeks (!#@!@) and we will re do your medicine (O'boy two more weeks with the wrong medicine, what part of me will die first?)
Ive had it with em but Im playing nice, both of thier nurse's reminded me that I was free to find another DR. though these two are into it 2 MONTHS now... Which really means they WANT me to find someone else cause Im to MEAN when I get scared and mad. They taught me that in the Army back in the 60's. you know what I mean... so thats the health report...Feel pretty good, but lookin at these blood tests and reading about em on the medical pages on the WEB...Im bout to be in trouble. and insurance companies hate to change horses in mid stream.
The ham radio bands are still bad, so Ive been talking to my computer...It worries my wife a little, but deep down she knows I'd do anything for her so she gets over it!! Thats all...73 Murray Neece K5MDM
