Good morning!!!!

[buckeyefarmer]

Dennis, how does AT&T see your Mobley sim? The one I put in Unite Explorer shows as Unite Explore on my AT&T web page. Never been a problem, but hesitant to move my other Mobley to Mofi for that reason and have AT&T suspend or cancel. That said I get good performance via my Mobley \ Glinet AR 300M router, currently 19.4/5.6. With the 4GAS terminated this is my primary right now so can’t lose it.

Probably should add, the Mobley is connected to Yagi antenna. I followed the instructions on Howard Forum.

It now shows a big ? , when it used to show picture of the mobley.

I tried the external antenna with mobley, did not get good contact to the test point inside. The new modem has external jacks for antenna.

My neighbor pushed a trail down my drive. I wasn’t going to push since I pushed so much gravel off last snow. After he did part, I decided to go out and clear some more.
Cleaned off sons car afterwards, wind is brutal cold again. It’s 30° now.
Ended up getting work calls today, so put in a half day from home.

I am supposed to be working limited hours, spent about half my afternoon on the phone with different people helping them troubleshoot problems. So you aren稚 the only one BEF.

Funny SXS story. Several years ago, was doing my summer clearing of the bank along the road. It is steep and it is always able to bring out the worst in my temperament. It was humid morning, gonna get hot and humid. I was trimming away when a SXS with a couple I would guess in their late 40s or so went by. Of course it had the obligatory coolers in the back.

Next thing I know, the SXS is back, they had turned around in my driveway. I stopped the trimmer, they said it looked like I needed a break. The guy reached into the cooler behind him, grabbed a beer and threw it to me. He got 2 more out, and the 3 of us drank the beers and talked. When the beer was gone, they said they had to go to a cook out, and off they went.

Paul, used to be able to get long dowels in section that had closet rods.

Ken, back to drawing board on belt as it has thrown a couple more times. Think I heard something of a click noise this last time.
Need to troubleshoot: bad spindle, clutch, alignment ????

Of course belt now has a break in it, so ordered new. Usually I keep 1 or 2.

Open to suggestions.

I just have simple tools. Likely got at HD when building the house.

A trick I learned working for my electrician Dad was to grab end of wire with nose of plier and kinda wiggle and pull. Bonus, if you knick a wire cutting sheath it will likely break so you can start over.

Getting the sheathing into the plug is always my goal.

My greatest challenge is not running out of connectors. If it only takes me 5 to get 4 good then I’m having a good day.

27°F and clear skies this morning, going up to 37° today ... which is where we are now.

Stopped at Menard's on the way home yesterday looking for a longer dowel rod for The Wife to use to roll up her quilting project wall, which is really just a large piece of flannel that she sticks her quilt blocks on for design layout. It would seem that no one sells dowel rod any longer than 36" or 48". Probably going to have to go a different route, like maybe thin-walled pvc pipe. I just don't want to buy 10' of it when I only need 64". It's becoming a quest now to find a solution.

Put about four miles on the stationary bike later in the evening.

I generally don't talk much about Fiats, Roy. I have a scar across my forehead, the left side of my nose partially caved in, a rebuilt chipped front tooth, and no curve in my neck anymore from slamming my face through the windshield of a '79 X-19. Tree 1, Fiat 0. (That tree ended up about 6" from the windshield, or what was left of it.) April 6, 1985 ... I remember that pain like it was yesterday. Excruciating. I don't recommend it.

Those are some seriously delicious looking pizzas, gents.

We haven't had any groundhog problems since we put a radio in the barn a couple years ago, wgnsprd. We keep it on a local AM talk radio station, KMOX. Apparently, they aggravate the groundhogs, too.

What about two dowels glued together in a piece of PVC?

Sorry about the wreck, I have one of those memories as well.

Got a dusting this morning, maybe 1/2”, that melted, then another started about 3 and is still snowing. Hopefully not for long.

yesterday I had the dubious distinction of being first one out there to clear off the snow.
This morning as it just starts to lighten up outside, and I see it snowing out there, in much less of a hurry
to go get wet and cold.

But...reminded of my alpaca socks waiting for me, I'll put them on. The wool socks I wore yesterday had shrunk some,
so when you take them off, looks like your foot had been squeezed down a quarter inch. One area where synthetics outperform natural fiber, they don't shrink.
Of course I wash everything in hot water and fully dry them. I might be cooking them in the dryer. I know to not put the alpacas in there but maybe I should let the wool
socks dry out naturally too. I need a sock tree...

time to get a move on. Very light snow coming down.

After reading your previous thread talking to pop gadget about the socks,I ordered a pair for my wife for Christmas. She just loves them. You learn the darnedest things here.

I have a 10' piece of 1.5" dowel rod that I use in my closet. For my purpose, it isn't that good although it has been up for 26 years. It has a bit of a bow in it.

You might try the schedule 40 PVC. A little more money, but stronger.
