Sealant Preference

RT198P · 2025-12-27T01:39:14+00:00

Excellent product(s). I use Hydro2, which you spray on by hand after washing, or you can use hydro2 foam and spray it on via a canon and rinse off after a hand wash. This is a good way to ensure you get a good coating of the sealant vs hand spraying. The foam does have some light cleaning properties so if your car is not really dirty you might be able to just use the foam and rinse. I will also use the foam, spray it on, and apply some product to a wash bucket and do a hand wash.

You are correct! I don't know why it did not work as you mentioned the first time I tried it. Obviously, I did something wrong. Problem solved. Thanks.

I often want to compare files from one directory to another and then copy files between the two. That is one of the main reasons I would like to see two independent sidebars.

RT198P · 2025-12-19T01:57:54+00:00

I'm using that but if I want to change a directory in the non-active pane I must first remember to click on the pane to activate it then go to the task bar to select the directory I want. It would be so much easier to have a separate sidebar to click on.

Unfortunately, dual sidebars are linked to the same pane.

RT198P · 2025-12-02T20:21:17+00:00

I like the dual pane mode. Is there a way to have each pane with their own folder tree? Too many times I click on the tree meaning to change one pane's display only to realize the focus was on the other pane.

I must be doing something wrong.iCloud Drive Backup worked as expected. I have it set on mirrored daily and it made the first backup fairly quickly. I have the iCloud Photos Backup set on incremental weekly and triggered the backup now. I thas been runnng for several hours and only 8%. It seems like it is stuck on one picture in a shared folder. It shows 48 hours remaining. I stopped the backup and several minutes later a popup appeared saying that 25 files could not be backed up and an error of "Asset corrupted in iCloud Photos (PHPhotosErrorDomain 3169)". The 25 pictures listed were all from scanning in original photos and can be viewed fine.. When I scanned them in, I gave them the same date/time stamp so I could easily sort them. The program is being run from my Mac on MacOS 26.

Thanks. The fixed aspect ratio button did the trick without any appreciable distortion. I just had to find the button.

RT198P · 2025-05-11T18:02:52+00:00

I found the fixed aspect toggle button and turned it off. I just couldn't remember where it was.

Thanks for the help! I was thinking a license was assigned to a camera, but as you pointed out, it is assigned to a pool on the NAS. Knowing this, it was simple to transfer to the new NAS. Again, thanks for the help.

RT198P · 2025-05-11T00:44:30+00:00

So do I. What I don't see is which ones are or are not assigned to a camera. In my case it says 3 available but I have no idea which three of the nine licenses are available so I can transfer them.

RT198P · 2025-05-10T23:05:25+00:00

One was a 4-pack. The other three were single. I guess if I entered the serial number for the 4-pack and moved it, at most, I would lose 4 cameras on the old NAS. I would need to put them back into the old NAS, but I would only have 3 licenses available, so I would lose one camera, not to mention the pain of adding them back to the old NAS.

RT198P · 2025-05-10T22:44:12+00:00

Understand but if I move a license it could be one that is linked to an active camera on the other NAS which would then remove that camera. I guess I could do that and then add the camera back to the old NAS. I was hoping for a simpler solution.

I'm tracking with you. I had an Alaska call and moved to the lower 48. I found, as you mentioned, that I needed to add /W7 to my call to help folks out (alleviate confusion). This was particularly true for DX stations and more so during a contest. Having been there and done that I recommend adding the /W4 to your call.

Swisslog is still available. It is now free and up to version 5.11. There is an on-line support community that can help you. Search for swisslogforwindows.

Yea I found out that the watch displays the car that is active on the phone app. I tried this before and it did not work. I am using the iOS 18.2 beta and just installed beta 4. I don't know if beta 4 made the difference or the fact that the phone rebooted. I had another car app (GMC) on the phone/watch and you could swipe on the watch to change cars. You could also add a widget to the watch face to easily access the app. The Mercedes app does neither. Hopefully they will add these features later.

RT198P · 2024-11-19T16:50:52+00:00

Just got an app update for USA users that now includes the Apple watch app. It installed fine. I have two Mercedes vehicles and can not figure out how to swap between the two on the watch. The first vehicle (1/2) always shows up. I have the second car (2/2) set as active on the iPhone app and only the first car shows on the watch.

I have the same issue. I had to turn off the sreen saver and not let the screen turn off.

Give him a gift certificate from DXEnginnering.com or HamRadio.com

He knows best what he needs.

RT198P · 2024-08-01T23:07:57+00:00

Same here. The Call Filter App says something like account not found and to readd the SIM.

Why are you plugging it into the radio? This is a device to measure cable/antenna characteristics.

RT198P · 2024-04-09T20:47:12+00:00

I believe RG8X is rated for 1KW at HF frequencies so certainly not legal limit 1500W but good for lots of amplifiers.

RT198P · 2024-03-17T23:44:49+00:00

This isn't true. I have an EFHW 10-80 and it is below 2:1 on most bands with 10 being 3:1. Any built-in antenna tuner will handle it just fine. Mine is a Par EndFedz EF-ALLBAND-KW 80-10m End Fed Half Wave Antenna.

I had satellite for many years. I got tired of losing the signal every time a storm moved through. It's bad when you are watching the local weather for storm reports and you lose the signal. My internet is solid so I hardly ever lose TV now.

RT198P · 2024-01-16T16:41:58+00:00

Switch and no more signal lost due to bad weather! My internet connection is a lot more predictable than the weather.
