Great talking to you today. You had me quite confused at times, but laughing just the same. I think you must have the same tone in your voice as my wife, 'cause sometimes I only hear half of what you say. (Seriously, I'm not joking.) I think running the power tools for years without hearing protection did some harm! Hope I learned my lesson soon enough (I now wear ear muffs) to stop the continuing damage... It would be awful hard to "read lips" over the vhf!
