I've heard the term "slow boat to china". But I ordered some AA batteries from IKEA today with an estimated delivery date of April 22!

Huh? / Damn Taxes
« on: March 29, 2020, 1905 UTC »
So I thought that I would get a jump on my taxes this year and I am using Turbo Tax. I just entered my interest income from my savings account, it was $10.48. I looked at the federal refund number at the top of the page and my refund went down $6. $6 on an investment return of $10.48. What in the hell!!

SYCKO Radio id at 0016z. Not a bad signal just a lot of noise to contend with.
Thanks I'm really enjoying the Big Band era music.

SYCKO Radio ID at 2326z. Good signal.
The noise is starting to raise up.
The op is broadcasting with 10 watts says it effectively only a 5 watt output.
