Morning everyone.

Morning. Didn't sleep well myself. Had stupid heartburn for some reason last night. Making some cardamon tea currently.

Halfway through rearranging the office. Personal stuff all back up, going to take a break before redoing all the work things.
home office?
Yep. Working from home all the time made us rethink the office setup. Got me enough room for all 3 of my monitors, printer, the 2 monitors for work, and my home lab server back in action. The wife dubbed it the "Command Center".
I suppose I'll post pictures after I get it all put back together this afternoon. We do have a thread for that here.

Finished mounting a couple of TVs at home.
-
Reading requirements for taking the online version of the RHCSA exam.
-
Woo hoo!
Bring it on!

Got to band practice tonight and discovered my amp has gone tits up. Ugh. I managed to kill an 80s era Peavey tube amp, which are notoriously reliable. Built like a tank but I managed to run it into the ground.

Use more air! :face_with_tears_of_joy: It was especially funny when I said that to orchestra kids.
Sorry about your amp

But that's the thing... At 120w of tube powered fury, 12 o'clock is face melting loud. Never even gotten close to the redline.

I bet it just needs tubes replaced. I forget the source, but there are still 1 or 2 companies making new tubes for things like that.

Just wrapped up interviews and offers... NTG's first veterinarian, Dr. Huete, has joined the team!

She's rocking some NOS Mesa Boogie power tubes, I really hope those are ok. But there are also like 5x preamp tubes, original as far as I know.

The meatware often behave like animals...
lol
...
seriously though, IIRC, NTG are making software for vets.
I would imagine that this hiring is QA testing, sales, and credibility all rolled into one. -
@RojoLoco Find your local ham radio club; in mine we have 2 or 3 guys with both tubes and the expertise to repair all sorts of tube gear.

Not a bad plan, I am dreading the labor rate at Acorn amps.

NTG Vet, it's a subsidiary that buys and/or operates veterinary clinics.

Actually, that's Quixotic, which is a partner, but not actually under NTG.
NTG Vet is actually under NTG (if the name didn't give it away) and is "Veterinary Operations Outsourcing". For all intents and purposes, they are what a high end MSP is for the IT world, but for the entire operational stack for veterinary clinics.

That's coming, but right now we have volunteer external doctors doing that.
