It's 'radio' talk Mike. A sliding scale that describes the quality of a radio transmission. The first number describes signal (carrier) strength, and the second one describes voice (modulation) clarity. 5 by 5 would be "loud and clear", and 1 by 1 would be "weak and unreadable".
I haven't heard the term 'Rubber Ducky' since C.W. McCall made it famous in the 70s.........
Thanks Ed (and Bill also). That clears it up like the sky today. Yesterdays storms are now gone and sun is back to baking today. Whoo Hoo, now I know the code

I'm alive. The stmach scope on Friday showed nothing more than some inflamation. I have an appointment on Tuesday with another doctor and I suppose a colonoscopy is next. So for now its pain and sleep that seem to take up my time!

I guess I didn't kill ALL them brain cells in the 70's -
Update ya'll; just got back from reviewing the MRI on my foot, and I have some good news, and some bad news. First with the bad news. Upon further analysis, the MRI showed that I actually broke three bones and tore three tendons, which the X-Ray did not show. Now the good news; I must be some kind of freak of nature, because all three bones are aligned with the tendon, and seem to be healing quite nicely. So, no surgery on my foot, or screws. The doctors couldn't believe how much healing as taking place in just three weeks. So, I feel really blessed and extremely fortunate.
Now, for the last bit of bad news; since the bones have already started to heal, the doctors felt no need to put me in a cast, or walking shoe, so I'm going to continue to feel pain for about 6-8 more weeks. The good news, they are going to keep me stock piled with LorTab, so I should be good!!
Great news Bucky. Can I come over and pop some pills with ya.. And Matt, I hope it's just inflamation and they can calm it down and you will be back to normal soon.
Damnit Bucky...I was wondering, I missed the part about the busted foot.
Yike. About as bad as me breaking/cracking all my ribs on my left side, two different occasions...try having pheumonia with broken ribs.
Can you say hexacodine?

Buddy of mine came over on Sunday and we grilled out. Still recovering from his divorce.

Gag gift I did for him.
Married 5 years, and divorce paperwork signed official on the 5 year.
Sad part, this was about the damn truth of the matter for him!

Matt, have you had a female doctor yet? One that is fresh out of Med. School, in her 30's, smoking HOT that likes to wear those extreme short skirts, and super tight shirts? You know the one's I'm talking about?!??! If not, then maybe you should request one that meets or exceeds that standard.......... LMAO!!!
Hope you're feeling better!!!
