Good morning!

Good morning this evening!  I finally got off my duff and routed my VHF/uhf coax along the sky bridge so I don't have to carefully mow that section. It looks a lot nicer too.  I did the mars mod on one of my icom 4100s. Boy that was intimidating, the two resistors I removed were each about the size of fly specks. The picture is the removed components taped under the cover with a pencil for scale. Anyway, it now works for gmrs as well as amateur bands.  Unfortunately, my programming cable isn't playing nice with my desktop, I keep getting the message be sure the USB cable is plugged in.  Maybe the software update from RT systems needed to be done with the cable plugged in? Anyway, I've had enough for tonight, I'll revisit it tomorrow.  Currently relaxing and listening to Emerson, Lake, and Palmer while the thick pork chop absorbs the garlic, paprika and pepper. Plain chow tonight, grilled chop, microwave baked potato and the last of my avocado tomato salad.
