Jimmy,

sked? Is that what you call a QSO on Echolink?

A sked is a time that you and another ham agree to on that particular band and mode, just to chat.

ah - gotcha - thx

I'm at my desk at work - probably all morning. :-) Just started
up Echolink - I have a friend that tells me about nets she
is on - I need to see what I can hear...

Work and snow are 4 letter words (hi hi)...but without work, there's
no money for ham radio play toys.

YEP!!!

I did sign in on the Delta net last night... In between
laundry. :-)

It reminds me of the meme where the OM is doing laundry. The XYL
glares at him, scowling "Look at you!! Doing laundry!! Last night, it
was doing dishes...and the night before, it was vacuuming!! What part
of 'YOU ARE NOT GETTING A NEW HAM RADIO DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND??!!" (hi hi).

I think I've seen that... :-) This is a gaming one, but could use it
for HAM too... Sign on the dealer table - for $5, we can supply a
receipt you can show your wife.

Speaking of laundry, many restaurants nowadays ask if you want to
leave a tip BEFORE you get seated, and served your food or drink...and some will have a pre-determined tip percentage (20% or more) on to the ticket. To me, if the service is good, I will leave a tip...if not, I'm tempted to do what this one individual did.

Same here! And I don't tip on take out, unless I feel led to for
some reason...

There is actually a ham store that will do that.

But, the hams worst fear is that he'll become a Silent Key, and his
XYL will sell his gear for what he told her he paid for them.

I do that with DoorDash, although I saw they had a recent data
breach. Nothing is safe anymore.
