Good morning!!!!

All of the Unifi stuff is WiFi, not cellular, but you already knew that, right? If your iPhone can't get a cellular signal on your tractor, it would use WiFi if it was available. You can even make phone calls over WiFi with the iPhone if you enable that feature. But the way I see it, in order to work, the mesh AP would still need a decent WiFi signal from somewhere else on the mesh network. And if that WiFi signal is strong enough for the AP, it's probably strong enough for the iPhone. Unless the larger antenna on the AP lets it work on a weaker WiFi signal. Then the AP would boost the WiFi signal enough for your iPhone to connect. You haven't wasted much if it doesn't work, and there's always nanoBeams to extend the network out to specific locations, like Paul was mentioning with his some day rifle range. Your experiment is interesting though, because if it works, the tractor would be a roving AP you could put in a variety of places. "Hey hon, lets take the tractor on the picnic this afternoon so I can listen to the game.":laughing:

That's one thing I wish there was a way of measuring: WiFi signal strength, in dB. There was a hack on the earlier versions of iOS that would let the phones display signal strength in dB, but Apple in their infinite wisdom broke it. Or maybe that was cellular signal strength? I'd like to measure that, too, as it would help in pointing the Yagi antenna on the cell phone signal booster. Maybe there's an app for that? I'll have go digging around some more.

Yup, just trying to distribute the wifi. Already do the wifi for iphone thing for phone.
I look for a way to measure as well, currently just read what devices, Mofi & Mobley show. Not very convenient. Being able to better aim the yagis lemme know if you find something as I have 3.

There is a larger omni antenna for the, but not there yet.

By the sounds Santa coming soon for you Rick.

Has anyone found a good defogger for eyeglasses that fog up with wearing mask? I just returned a FOG-GONE defogger from Amazon that did not work. The reviews were either 5 or 1 star. I guess the type of lenses I have are like the 1 star people's reviews.

On the covid front: Article from Fox News:
. . . the journal Blood Advances, a publication of the American Society of Hematology, on Wednesday. In the first,researchers looked at some 473,654 people in Demark who were tested for COVID-19 between February and July and compared them with the general population of roughly 2.2 million people. . . .
researchers looked at 95 critically ill COVID-19 patients in Canada from February to April, finding that blood type appeared to play a role in the severity of their illness.
"A higher proportion of Covid-19 patients with blood group A or AB required mechanical ventilation and had a longer ICU stay compared with patients with blood group O or B,"they wrote.

This is the best stuff that I have found! Really works well for preventing fogging. I think Amazon has it, I got this off Ebay for cheaper!

1 oz lasts a long, long time..... I have this one for 2 years, using about every 2 weeks!

I’ve been seeing for months where they saw that in patients, but most was anecdotal. Glad to see that study.

I have used good quality automotive wax on mine for years, gets them very clear and no fog.

Roy happy day for sure

Yes, it was...
Tractor's at the dealer's...I took off early to check out my $40K investment.
Looks good, very clean, but obviously not showroom clean (nor would I expect that on a tractor). Not as big as the 4520, but that's due to turf tires rather than the taller R4's. It'll be easier to get in and out
The dealer is doing a service on it and installing a rear wiper, once the wiper kit is received. Also, an overall look over o ensure everything is working per spec.
I did not have a chance to actually operate it, but that's OK...my driving will be soon enough
The tractor will be delivered one day next week...I'll have pictures then

Congrats Roy, very exciting.
