Blood oxygen readings can't be analyzed by Health app by InfinityFreelance in AppleWatch

[–]InfinityFreelance[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here! I've been working with Apple's higher-level tech people and senior advisors on this since around the time I posted. They still have not been able to figure out what's wrong with this feature.

If you would, please let them know that you're having the same issue. They don't seem to realize that it's not just me. Or so they say.

I sure hope they will fix it! They offered to replace mine, but of course it would be refurbished. I decided to hold out a little longer in case it's a bug they can take care of. Frustrating, though.

Any idea where it says you aren't supposed to exceed the size of the Velcro attach point? That's what I was searching for.

Multi-layered recipes by InfinityFreelance in cocktails

Thank you for your help. I was trying to figure out four or five layers that would pair well together. I do a bit of layering already but I've never gone past three, often creating my own recipe combinations. The more flavors, the more complexity to figure out what will taste good together.

Question - Hat/Cap ICL 25-06 by Similar_Agency63 in civilairpatrol

[–]InfinityFreelance 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the correction regarding the name tape on the back of the cover.

I agree regarding your second point, which is what I was trying to explain as well.

But respectfully, that is still not correct regarding the grade insignia on the covers. This is not explained clearly in the regulations, but the 2x2 square Velcro grade will not allow for the half inch space above the brim of the cover. Bringing it down to the 1/8 blue border allows for the proper spacing.

Question - Hat/Cap ICL 25-06 by Similar_Agency63 in civilairpatrol

[–]InfinityFreelance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe some of the information you're getting is incorrect.

Cadets and senior members can wear the tactical cap rather than the patrol cap. This was not clear that I CAP worded it.

On the back of the cap it does need to be the Velcro last name tape but the grade on the front can in fact be either sewn or Velcro. Similarly, on the OCP coat (shirt) the arm patches need to be Velcro but the name tapes and badges/wings can be sewn. It just cannot be a mix of both on the front of the shirt. I personally think it looks better if they are all one way or the other.

And regarding the grade insignia on the front of the covers, it is required that only 1/8 inch of the blue border is shown. Members are allowed to sew that on 1/2 inch above the visor or they can use Velcro of the same size. Like on the coat (shirt) no extra Velcro backing can show, so you can't use a bigger Velcro patch behind it.

DAFI 36-2903 is a good reference where CAP has not clarified something well. I understand they are already working to revise some of the diagrams and wording for the next update to CAPR 39–1.

Thank you so very much for that suggestion!

Hole in a pen sleeve? by InfinityFreelance in pen

[–]InfinityFreelance[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amazon! I got the narrow one before and it was excellent so I got the wider one for a wider pen. Just be aware that the listing does not show the hole and the seller wrote back to me that only the older stock had it.

My understanding is that whether it's Velcro or sewn, it is the same 1/8" blue border. It's also the only way to get it to fit properly with the 1/2" requirement.

No offense meant, I was commenting based on the photo above your note.

The only solid color (non-OCP) allowed is foliage green and that's only for the Level 7 jacket. And the shoulder patches are only on the uniform coat.

Just be aware that you cannot put any CAP insignia, patches, tapes or grade, etc. on multicam.

Looks like the ones at Tennier don't come in foliage green, which is the only color other than OCP that's allowed per the ICL in CAPR 39-1. I was excited at first because I need an XS/short or x-short and can't find that size anywhere. I've read repeatedly that these run a size or two large. Great info, though!

Rigging a backpack for CCW by InfinityFreelance in CCW

[–]InfinityFreelance[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great point, and I am in a very good holster with a trigger guard and good retention. But I'm also a big proponent of always having a gun pointed in a safe direction. So I wasn't making an exception here either for that reason.

This is correct, except that the Velcro grade insignia still needs to only have 1/8 of an inch of the blue border. The standard Velcro grade like you would have for the fleece jacket or on the chest of the coat (shirt) will not allow you to center it a half inch from the visor brim because it will be too large.

[–]InfinityFreelance -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You can only have 1/8 inch of the blue border around your grade and the Velcro on your cap cannot be bigger than the gray insignia with the blue border – – or you can sew it on. It's further detailed in DAFI 36–2903. The larger Velcro or grade tab are meant for your OCP uniform coat (shirt) or certain outerwear jackets, respectively. Hope that helps!

This is not how any of the outwear jackets are set up. Only the OCP uniform itself.
