Good morning!!!!

. As Fuddy mentioned BT transmitter and receiver. Might have to put a resistor in to attenuate the speaker output to BT though. Pretty easy.

That’s how I would approach it.
You might want to just get a ready made interface to the BT transmitter like this-

CLEARANCE BOSS B65N Speaker Level to Line Level Output Converter

BOSS B65N Speaker Level to Line Level Output ConverterThe adjustable B65N two-channel speaker-level to line-level converter (also called a high-to-low adapter), from BOSS, allows for the installation of line-level mobile audio electronics, such as amplifiers and active crossovers, into systems...

My funny Ivermectin story. First, everyone should read about it, it's interesting from trusted sites. Of course the FDA says don't take it .
My wife & I have had same doctor 35 years. I called him a couple years ago about us getting a prescription. Doctor had never heard of it! I said no problem, we have it for horses & we can measure it by weight and take it...he said don't do that!
He said he'd research it, let us know the next day. Next day call all excited saying wow! That's amazing stuff and I called in prescriptions. One little pill, $3.
I told him our pets had parasites we handled, so good we took it.
Ivermectin is amazing if you research it.

it's what they DON'T want you to know.

I agree, have to modify speaker out to line out into wifi transmitter
hmmm, might be fun
btw, same converter shown for 18.87 on Amazon. Your parts place has good prices.
now which wifi transmitter? lot of choices there. none of them seem to have meaningful comparative specs. Like thd, sensitivity or output.
30 feet through some inside doorways. Wifi is not very specific, what communication protocol is used? I don't need to talk to the ISS...

had a nice soak in hot tub, turned it off until next weekend, packed, clothes washed, dishes washed,
based on cost of fuel oil, going to leave the house at 55 when I go.
packing warm clothes sure takes more room than golf shirts and shorts...
full tank of gas, clean windshield, ready to leave on a very cold morning.

Frits, what a great looking plow rig.

have a nice Saturday evening folks.

Have a safe trip @daugen

Boss V Plow for the Kubota RTV to hopefully avoid sticking of snow and ice. Also will spray the bigger plow for the tractor. Last few years were low snowfalls but we are due for a big one I think.View attachment 771151

That is one nice plow setup. I have always wanted an RTV setup like that, but have never been able to justify it, except that it would be the impetus to build the equipment shed that I would also like to have, so I could move some stuff that it now stored in the shop into it. That might be twisted logic, just saying…….

Thanks. This is the second one after the 1100 had a transmission failure. The 1100X is nice as well and I was able to transfer over the plow with new brackets. It is the most used vehicle on the farm and having air con and heat is priceless. Also it is parked in a 14 by 24 shed just outside the kitchen door so I don't have to go up to the barn and get it which makes it very convenient.

Dr prescribed a zpack, guess in case it’s a bacterial infection. Pneumonia or bronchitis.
But now that I read about it, I’m not sure I should be taking it with my afib history.
Now I got sore throat.

Coughing has reduced.

Fun stuff.

But, after taking it I’m starting to feel much better.

 

[Looking4new]

I'll say, that's a serious box.
Can't you just open your window to cool it off?....

Chris, my solar bird bath water pump works great. Now frozen solid...
I'm going to wait for Popgadget to build one. Inverter to work with 18VDC, I'm sure there are lots of those around.

actually with simple resistive heat, maybe the exact voltage not so important as long as coils heat up adequately.

How about an air pump? The bubbles will keep the water moving and moving water doesn't freeze.

mostly, yes all original fans. I bought it in 2009. It wasn't cheap, but as for fan longevity it is great.
When I replace computers I just get the parts and stuff them in this case. This case is also rigged for water cooling IF I was to go that way.
I am a firm believer in liquids and computers don't get along all that well and one tiny leak can cost me $2,000.oo in computer parts + labour.

what kind of processor do you have in there Bill? Do you upgrade fairly often?
My Dell has an I7-107000 @2.9ghz w/32gb ram (I have almost zero idea what that means)
what do you have big fella?

is there a free test online where you can test the power/throughput of your pc?
I think we got to the point a few years back where my pc went a lot faster than I did or needed.
Particularly now with a SSD.
So no longer a need to upgrade for speed or multitasking

When they make 8k video a reality for pc's, I'll upgrade my video board for that.
I'm in love with 4k on what I think is a 5k monitor.
But for a picture I could literally put my hand in, yes, I'd upgrade for that.
Lot cheaper to do it on your desktop than on your living room wall.

coffee's done, got to get showered and moving. I left the car in the garage so at least it won't be frosted over.
Hope those apples didn't get too cold. Got down to 33 last night inside garage. Probably a degree more in car?
Am glad the apple baskets have plastic inner liners which they tie over the top. Visions of strange bugs flying around in the car on Rt 95...
I found a UFO bug in my sink yesterday, knew it didn't come from here. Came in on something.

learned a long time ago not to swat at bugs while driving. Stop, take care of it, then drive. unless you're real lucky and it's crawling right near the window
where the wind will suck it out. Back you go.

Drinking first cup of very hot coffee. 11° with clear skies this morning. Heading to 26° with partly cloudy skies. I did make it into shop and made parts for Trac-Vac hose support. May spend some time assembling parts today. Will have to clean walkways from snow first. Got about 2" overnight.
Suet cakes are going fast this year. I have about 10 woodpecker's visiting my feeders daily.

Drew, have a safe trip.

Buckeye, get lots of rest and stay hydrated.

Prayers and best wishes for everyone.

Good Morning All.

 

[ronjhall]

Buppies, I will have to try WD40 on the poles. Right now I have baffles on my 5 poles.

 

[Looking4new]

Good morning, the low temp is 11 and the high to 18°F. Wind W 6 mph. Still snowing.

One of the cats woke me up at 4 and I couldn't get back to sleep, so I got up and will be all ready for daybreak, when I will be plowing.
So far this winter there are only three driveways. This is a good thing. I don't want to go off my little dead end street.
No insurance is my excuse.

daugen, I've got a Asrock Z590 Phantom gaming 4 processor with 128 gigs of ram. My 850 watt power supply feeds it.
In the past I usually wait until it breaks, then fix it with whatever is a step or two up. I have no idea what my video card is, all I know about it is there are two fans on it. I may have to upgrade something this winter, probably the video card. When I have a bunch of tabs open in Firefox AND two instances of the same game running she will crash. I don't loose any data, she just does not want to multitask to that extent.


Have a safe day all

 

[wngsprd]

32 going to 41.

Hope you had a great anniversary, Fuddy...wow, 50 years!

Ron, prayers for your BIL and family.

LS, hope your knee is doing better.

BEF, glad you're doing better.

Ron, woodpeckers are fun to watch, and they surely have a pecking order...seems the red-bellieds are the boss here.

Enjoyed a full day in the woods hunting in southeast Virginia with my son yesterday. Getting up at 1am and getting back home at 8pm was not fun, but slept like a log.

 

[Buppies]

Did you luck wngsprd?

Ron we enjoy watching them slide down the pole

30 this morning wind gusts to 35 mph cold today warming up next week before big rain day after turkey day snow in NE

winter still looks to have a lot of surprises

Wife enjoyed yesterday I’m a happy camper

Prayers for all our Country

 

[m7040]

Good morning, Cold and windy 24 high of 33 running the basement furnace this morning while the wood fire is coming up.
Ron your pictures are the best!!!!

The furnace is cleaned out and ready for winter. Firebricks are in good shape and overfire air pipes looks good. Lining for the oil fire tube looks good just some minor cracks and the ignitor and transformer was tested and found good.

 

[pennwalk]

The question that has been on my mind this morning is what the heck do you do with 77 inches of SNOW???

Chris

 

[buckeyefarmer]

Ron we enjoy watching them slide down the pole

That would be fun to watch, like the old greased pole kids would try to climb at the fair. Wonder if they still do that. I think the first kid who reached the top won a baby pig.


I just said I noticed an improvement, not over it by any stretch. This morning coughing more again. I now think it was bronchitis or pneumonia starting.

I find a decent I7 laptop does everything I need, including CADD and video editing. I’m not a gamer, although my last desktop had a then top of the line video card for gaming. For gamers they normally change video cards yearly to the latest and greatest.

I recently went thru and destroyed a bunch of old hard drives I had stacked up unused. Need to dispose of some old computer cases. When I’m retired.

 

[buckeyefarmer]

Wife enjoyed yesterday I’m a happy camper

Glad it was a good day.

I am most fortunate to have a great wife to take care of me, with all of my health struggles the last few years. I don’t tell her enough.
