The Micro Effect, Kami-Eye, Idaho, where every day is a holiday. Yes, sir! Where every paycheck is a fortune. Yes, sir! Kami-Eye, Idaho, where every meal is a banquet. Yes! Where your instincts will serve you better than your government. Yes, sir! Alright, yeah! The Micro Effect Live.com. The Micro Effect, a worldwide broadcast. On the internet and on KU-band satellites. Telstar 5, transponder 5, themicroeffectlive.com. The most important phone number you'll need to remember is 888-747-1968. Again, 888-747-1968. Don't miss it. Fliplock and his clothes were torn and dirty as he stood there by my bed. He took off his three-corne hat and speaking loaded me. We fought a revolution to secure our liberty. We wrote the Constitution to shield from tyranny. For future generations, this legacy we gave. In this, the land we secured for you, we hoped you'd always keep. Tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. In this, the land of the free. You vie permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent. Your children must attend a school that doesn't educate, and your Christian values can't be taught, according to the state. Read about the current use in a regulated press, and you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper, so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. You've taken, you've given government control, harm, so they could burn down churches and see and re-farm, and keep our country, put men of God in jail, harass your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn, and your daughters send artillery and guns to foreign shores, and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you'll fight to save? Constitution, the supreme law of the land, preserve our great republic and each god given right. Okeyd vanished in the midst for whence he came. His words were true. We are free, but we have ourselves to blame. Or even now as the tyrants trampled each god-given right, we only watched him tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. He stood by your bedside to dream while you were asleep, and wondered what remains of the freedoms he fought to keep. What would be your answer? He called out from the grave. restaurant crews, grammar teams, OQ teams, the automobile grammar consortium from the Mississippi, all the way up to the end. And we now encapsulate all... ...and ignore the Nostradamus 2060 world. The world's gonna end thing because... it's like, how far out? 2060, and because it's gonna... there's nothing you can do, Nostradamus drinks a PT and... yeah, man, he was like wild-eyed, screaming in some language we'd never heard before. Actually, we did. Can we deal with certain problems? A lot of people are talking about going to the border. Like, you know, Ford. Oh, fiddle. Now, uniforms, preferably the group. There ain't no money, guys. I can go to every resale. I've stored everything by color now. I mean, they had it for years. I mean, it's kind of cool. It really looks nice. The mercenaries. Yeah, you can buy enough... You can buy enough of the black shirts to... I wonder if everybody showed up. Man, I can smell him over there. Yeah. Uh, Michigan militia update. So far we don't have anything that's changed other than a heads up or a war on that in a moment. have another one in there for $20. It's an oak, which they call 8 color. They've got an oak, a mile, and they've got another $20. The cat path, the e-doubt. If you're listening, in fact, they even have them down to $8.40 in the camel pack. It's like you guys have been buying this this morning, some of the snow cheeks. You can match up the different one out there as a drug on the market. And right now, you can get wood one for a bit of it, and there's lots of it, so you can match your troops up. You will look, it's free decor, it's all matching, it does kind of help. Go to Maine military. They've got Molly They need helmets, everybody gets what they need. Yes, or whatever. You can cut corners, you're starting to get actually having to fight. Well, this one, I can accept in every war. It was too much of it, we kind of dropped. Added repeatedly for you medics out. Multi cam for $10, there you go. Multi cam, everybody's gotta have sheep. Now they've got two more caps, everything else. But again, I mean you can't outfit. Matically go through the special. I mean they can't help with the Bundy Ranch. We outfitted them with people that were out there. Some people, we don't. I complained about it because they didn't get the goodies. Some limitations back in. Well, it should have gone to me. Well, it should have, but somebody needed to step in and handle Quartermaster better. That is true. But in order for that to happen, I have to step forward and do the job. So anyway, they do have a tactical utility shoulder pack there at, uh, airsoft-club for $10.50. It's multi-cam. Shoulder bag, the rectangular one in the back, the other bag. You're multi-cammed out. It's Friday, it's Cinco De Amo Day, 5 more ammo. I'm Tony McMullen here for Life Change Tea. Everyone loves us for our all-natural tea that helps you with your health in so many ways.

Be careful on them. Sunshine is up. We're on the windshield more often. and think ahead. I think automotive... Yeah, if you want to see you, pay attention. It's on the road when I'm going crazy this morning. Now I'm going to go through for basic equipment. I wouldn't think twice about it. Anyway, sounds like we have a car. As it got close to October 4th, 12 a.m. It's October 4th, 7 to 12 a.m. 192 on I-35. 192, the 146 dot 23 hertz. And again, for everybody, if you can, if you're in here and you can make that ham fest, I highly recommend you do it. And again, this weekend, especially, using the wise of this, kind of funny is that we tend to run into really cool stuff. People start pulling goodies out in the fall. Maybe it's because of what people sell at the end of the summer from the industry as far as surplus stuff goes, but seem to be, you know, and progressively through the winter, get a little better. So, definitely you want to hit the first of of the season and check them out. Have you been to this one before Bill? Oh many many times. How big is it? Well you could walk through it probably if you're not. 400 tables? Yeah. Any best good show ones here, County Fair a couple others and 30, 40, 50 vendors sometimes 60 maybe 100 depending on how many members show up. Established regular like in doubles or more you're gonna find a pretty good Outside there's probably a hundred. Yeah, there's usually guys that are there that have they specialize and stuff and everybody kind of expects them to be there One of them are bad. Who is the guy that shows up that your plus that he's been pulling? That means you'll see these little 12-volt and so they look like car all the way down to make their microtot the size of a lawnmower battery But the prices are good and the guy always has them because he has a connection Looking for those kinds of batteries to do we're doing here with solar lighting place to go go to the ham fest check them out but you can catch them when somebody's tossed them out of the, you know, industrial site. Other thing is antennas and C.B.'s and other specialized radio equipment in certain niche brief. There's guys that do nothing but C.B.'s there. We got a guy down at, uh, there's nothing but C. He has like six C.B. tables and you can walk in and get a C.B. for $10 all day from him. There's everything he can from all the surplus locations and he'll refurbish the ones, so these used ones are low end is $10. And those are old and they're not pretty, but they all guarantee run, they do. All the way up there $25 and $30. He sells. The ham fest is a place to go if you're looking for stuff. You can probably have Kootra Mythra. Yeah, I mean by 12 you can shoot a cannon off in there. But like there's one guy that always shows up and you get him for like $7, $20 a piece. Yeah, that's what we get up here although again like at the Dayton ham fest I just hit it right. The guys have been telling me there's not as much showing up. the date of the hamfest, not like there was, as far as the real goody grab boxes, you'll find them. But any hamfest, you just gotta be ambitious and ask questions. Most people are afraid to ask questions nowadays. Don't hesitate. Ask because the guy doesn't wanna carry that poundage home. It's tons. We don't simply have to rip it all. And they'll usually make deals. And the GE radio is one of our units here in the middle of the state. I've outfitted them with virtually hundreds of these single channels and all hand-held GE radios from mid-80s. I get them for about a dollar, two dollars a piece. I just got a rack of them here that I gave to them. At the end of last year, I found it at the yard sale, got it for like four dollars. Hell, I didn't even keep it around here. We just, you know, set them on down the road to the guys, because any time you find the same model, routes are the same. So that's a cool thing. These are good radios. There's nothing wrong with them. In fact, the GE, well, General Electric's been around quite a long time, guys. I always look under the tables and I see this Boccef handheld radios. I mean it was just filled to the brim. All of them need new batteries, but you know, these are good radios and then you have the UHF ones and some of them are programmable. I mean on the front where you program the tone and all that stuff. Well like if you have $20 you can see what you've got and match somebody getting rid of batteries. They can't or they don't want to buy new batteries. Grab a red and white line, a power line, couple of alligator clips. and make the line about 20 feet long. Make sure you get a good gauge wire, you know, so it articulates. And then go up inside the base of that drill when you solder the wires there to, you know, positive and negative. And then you put the alligator clips on the positive and negative and make sure that the right color you drill to have in your vehicle or anywhere you need to that runs off a car. You take a car battery, put it on a little work site. Then you take that drill. When you need power, that's all the work you're going to do with it. Now, You take a wall wart and those little handhelds match up a power supply wall wart because there's every output you can imagine. You get up inside there and you make a connection to use that handheld anytime you need to have 12 volts, then connect your output. The trick I did, we're talking about battery, and then I could just pop in that battery and hook it to the car battery. Yeah. The capacitor's giving up. It's just like new. The more money the brains are out in armor Michigan. It's like when the rapper, I don't have sources where they just dump everything you can imagine. You probably grabbed me yesterday, we were set of speakers, but usually it'll be a rat nest, cause somebody collects a box, it's all brand new. Behind me I've got a box, but I got a set of micro set of keyboards that are, it's a full keyboard, but it's in two pieces. Brand new, on issues we need to go to that, or even when you go to the ham fest. Guys, if you do little radio work, or little, you know, little, you know, little, you know, little, you know, little, you know, little, you know, little, you know, little, you know, little, you know, little, you know, little, you know, little, you know, little, you know, little, you know, little, you know, little, you know, little, you know, little, you know, little, you know, little, you know, little, you know, little, you know, little, you know, little, you know, a lot of guys like to take one piece of equipment to be able to hook it up to a lot of different stuff. If you have different colored cables, stuff that you want to unplug and replug, it makes it a lot easier out what you want to replug back in. So you're not trying to figure out number one, number two, number three, or number four. Now eventually you can flag it with little numbers, which is what I also do. But when you have colors, they're very quick. Yellows and grays are quite discernible one from the other. That's the solution. Some of the stuff we're talking about here. When you add that to the simple, inexpensive systems that you're able to find, how many radios do you think you got in that $20 box? Let's see. One, two, three radios. Maybe less than $2 a piece per radio. Any couple of them weren't. The box paid for itself. One of them was that scanner that I donated to the Micro Effect. Again, I would remind everybody, that's the cool thing about graph boxes. If you're willing to... Here's one of the things most common. It's heavier! Heavier! Point is weighs less than... maybe. It's like, oh my god! It weighs a whole two pounds because it's solid state rather than micro. So are you that stinking lazy? Going back to the earlier statement. Yeah, it works! It gets me above this. It's like, improvement. Well, that costs a lot more and it's microprocessors. Okay, but this one does the same job, right? Now, I'll never argue with anybody who wants to get rid of the, you know, stuff. And if we have extras... It's like what you did. You take the spares and we distribute them. I'm always fascinated by the argument that somebody's got a beautiful piece of stuff out. So they just have to amount of money. And when they get the new one, they find out, Bill, you've heard, seen this over and over on electronics. They're not satisfied with the new model. Work as well as the model before it. Which everybody tends to forget. The Alpha model was built like a brick dug at it and said, how come we shaved stuff off? I had a good engineer friend for many years. And he would not buy I mean, you know, for the pieces he worked for. Anything until they got the bug, DB transmitters, different things. We're talking high-end gear, but you never get the first run of a unit. Yeah, and part of that, again, that's the how do they find out what's wrong with it? Well, the customer tapens as they field the system, and now there's 500 or 1000 or 20,000 of them out there. Find out that, and then it starts to work again because it's drifting. Actually, called the yard type. Sure, but I got a run. Strikasian, but again, Warp, where is that ant fest? Off of I-35. Exit 192, October. I did not say you don't know where it is, thank you. And we got Don here, and your neck of the woods. Blowing orb, but sunshine, but it's warming up. We should get to almost 70, get some other stuff done, before the winter starts snapping at our heels. And the wolves will be at the gates again. The wolves, which by the way, we have the coyotes, but we are thinning them out here. I have heard nothing but ants about the coyotes. Everybody now realizes... Shoot pheasants or rabbits and you've got tactic coyotes roaming your counties, the tri-county area around you. Hard to shoot pheasants and rabbits. When they've all been eaten? Yeah, from the bones though. Mustard feathers. Anyway, we are at the top of the arch. I'll remember her name machine to be available in one hour. That number is 231796. 8 4 5 8 I mean, difference because we're canceling them out there on the spot. Love them like a baby seal. Anyway, it is the second hour closing and the third hour coming up. Don, you remember for next season? Finish this one up, please. Eight, two, three, one, seven, nine, six, eight, four, five, eight. Don't touch that dial. You know, the next hour, smart the time.
