Good morning!!!!

[daugen]

and here's another electronics question. The electronic chimes in my new clock sound pretty good.
A fairly impressive looking magnet on that tiny speaker.
I wonder what hz range is most important for bells

wonder if I could tap into that clock output, wifi it to my pc sound system, and feel like I'm in the Tower of London
I'm going to wait for Ken to build one of those for me.

Good morning,
34° now, Sunny today, High near 43, SW wind around 5 mph.

Did a dump run this morning seeing I was going by there anyway.
Stopped and filled the truck with gas, saw a friend and pulled over to chat then completely forgot to fill the diesel can which was why I went out in the first place lol.

Happy anniversary Mr. & Mrs. Fuddy
BEF take care of yourself

Not sure what the rest of the day will bring

Enjoy your day everyone

Helo, I'm afraid that we will cut and run on Ukraine. It is a shame that people don't remember Ronald Reagan warning us about the evil empire.

67°F and 2.45 inches rain.

Kubota retrieval this morning provided it dries a bit. Tentatively scheduled 10ish so a few hours. Should get more info as to why he thinks it’s toast.

Otherwise will be a let’s see what comes day. Didn’t sleep all that well given the thunder and lightning most of the night.

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day

I guess he is your friend so you can't offer to buy it for a thousand bucks.

If clock to stereo is less than 30-40 feet I'd try bluetooth. Our neighbor has a 1946 Olympic console radio I repaired and wanted to play records. It had an audio input jack (1/4" female). Using a Y adapter I plugged that in, other end to L&R bluetooth jacks.
Walmart had a bluetooth phono $59.
It works fine.
This adapter comes with dual 1/4" to 1/8" male stereo cable. Cut 1/8" plug off. Solder red & white wires together, twist stranded wires together & solder end. These two carefully solder across clock speaker. This is tedious, an alternative is simply remove a little insulation from two leads going to speaker, solder to them. Plug that into bluetooth transmitter.
Stereo needs a bluetooth receiver plugged into auxiliary port.
Voila

Good morning to all! Low of 14° (brrrr), only going up to 40°. That's better than yesterday's high of 30°. Yesterday and this morning, a beautiful coating of freezing fog. The sun just made an appearance this morning after taking a vacation day yesterday.


The heavy frost definitely took out the rest of the flowers that were hanging on. Sometime this coming week, need to cut the stems. One giant mum plant needs to get separated and replanted. It got so big the weight of the flowers made it sag over.

Been dealing with some personal demons this week.... seems I've been able to move past.... I hope.....

The knee has been really acting up... the pain is almost the same intensity as when it was bone on bone. Swelling bad too.... I don't know what is causing it, but has dramatically decreased my activity. Dr's appointment on Monday, so hopefully get more info then....

Dennis, stay on top and get plenty of rest. Hope you get better soon!

Fuddy, HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! You have us beat by 10 years.... Neat story.

Drew (Johnny), have a safe trip! Hope the weather cooperates for the trip.

Ron, that squirrel must be a teenager.... you know, with the bleached / dyed tail as a mohawk..... great pic!

Today is dog food day.... got started early, mid point in the process now. Doing it a little early to avoid having to make it right after thanksgiving. Using ground turkey instead of chicken this round. Picked up 6 lbs for less than the cost of chicken. I should have gotten another batches worth at the cheap price.

Max had fun the other morning when we had a dusting of snow.... he was doing ZOOMIES all around the yard. Like little kids... he loves playing in the snow.

Hope everyone has a great weekend!

I’d go $1500 if he included Backhoe and Rotary mower. If he was a good friend he’d just offer for $1000.

I’ve been in bed since going out this morning. Had to put on flannel shirt and sweats even under cover.
