For a mobile radio that covers almost all of the ham bands, HF, VHF low and high, and UHF, the Icom IC706 MKiiG is the best. can be tricky to program with limited menus and the audio is tinny, so an external speaker is good. Costly. widely available used for $400-600. For VHF and UHF mobile, I...

pictures and nomenclature?

The avatars here are limited to 160x160. The system then resizes them for display. This need not mean terrible detail. Within reason, the 160x160 image can be worked on to provide more detail than normal under these circumstances. In whatever graphics program is used, you must resize the...

Please post some pics eventually, so we can see that, and know where to check next time under the dash. On the subject, if the copper? air line from the compressor has a small hole, it could be cut and a piece of hose put on it. Any special kind, other than it should be oil resistant and has...

I have only an electric one. 400Hz fan motor, could be changed.

It is very tricky to use the VIC for transmitting on the CB because the VIC is designed for FM and the CB is AM. The nature of the AM signal lets it get into the VIC cabling and cause a squeal when transmitting. I have been working on this problem for some time. So far, I have put 0.01uF bypass...

The handling and viewing of uploaded images is pretty cool. I gave that a good thrashing yesterday in test. I can see the dimensions and file sizes are unusual but the image processing and layout after the "first click" looked pretty slick to me, and the "second click", a good idea, shows the...

Can you be more specific? The contrast between the text and background is OK for me. Is it dim for you? If you prefer other colors, name them or something. The only way to perfectly be clear is to exactly define what you like. If you view the source of the page, you can see all the colors...

The less java the better IMNSHO, it's not all created equal on all desktops and can bog down older computers. Flash is more universal? I like the chatware as it is. The current BBS arrangement seems to work as well on my old junk as the previous incarnation did.

I don't see any google ads. Maybe I'm doin it wrong. Are these the rather unobtrusive banner ads that seem to be made of text?

don't laugh, there is probably an IP stack for the Atari out there somewhere.. ON A TERMINAL SERVER! hahahaha. oops, I laughed.

The orange reminds me of the old radars with P7 phosphor and orange filters on the CRTs. I like this very much. It's very close to that color. The text is good too, not glaring and also the background is uniform from one post to the next.

I saw this in the control panel under "attachments". It's a good feature to know how much storage one is consuming with attachments and to be able to remove them individually if desired. I was shocked to see 53MB, but then realizd that is for all the attachments I ever added. So I will try to be...

how to make moonshine. text file (Don't do it, who knows what it is..) OK that worked so that concludes this phase of the BBS twit test. No complaints from this side.

Make Your Own HVAC Ductwork.doc: Your file of 10.84 MB bytes exceeds the forum's limit of 19.5 KB for this filetype. haha I'm so busted! so here is a "jpe" file (jpg resuffixed) - looks like it's going to get squeezed to smaller size.. The real question is whether the teeth have...

testing testing.. jpeg {renfrosnart image} (I renamed a jpg to jpeg and uploaded it. the attach files box says 'jpg', yet it seems to have gone through as a jpeg) gif 640x466 (laser sign) Those came out good.

test of jpg and pdf. jpg got punked on size, PDF did OK even though over file size. Just playing with the imaes. I like the new way the images and files are presented. It is very slick. Very nice indeed.

were you able to read that image?

huh. the art is 1071 wide, but is too small to see when I click on it both times. (first shown the image alone on a dimmed background, second shows a thumbnail). I must have been doin it wrong. Ok, I see by the table that was visible once I increased the size of the upload window (a nice...

Take note, a page from a rare manual..
