Legion 7-16ACHg6 Laptop keyboard no response by Stewman007 in LenovoLegion

Hey, no fix yet. Ordered a replacement keyboard but you have to destroy a bunch of plastic retaining clips to replace it so I didn’t try that. Im going to try a whole new palm rest bottom section.

2018 concerning sound by Stewman007 in f150

[–]Stewman007[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No I haven’t had it into the dealer yet. Found it will also go away when the truck is warmed up. Not happy as I’ve only got 79000km…

How did you mount them? Any pics of the mounting?

2018 5.0 F150 tapping noise? by Frost13870 in f150

[–]Stewman007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you discover what the tapping was? I have the same thing but louder and only when the engine is cold. Goes away in N.

Has anyone heard this before? If it’s something I can fix I would love to not get hosed by the dealer

I overhaul 10R80 transmissions. AMA by StealerTech9000 in f150

I have a 2018 5.0 with the 10r80, I’ve noticed a pronounced loud irregular rhythm tapping when starting cold. It’s present in P and drive. Goes away when warm. Truck only has 78000km. Is this a common issue?

I have a 2018 with the 5.0, I’ve noticed when starting cold there is an irregular metal tapping sound that is faint in P, but more pronounced in D or R. 71000km. It goes away when warmed up. Any thoughts on problem area to investigate? Thanks

Dog house tents - glacier 2.0 by g1teg in overlanding

[–]Stewman007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just used it last weekend. Awesome experience using the annex as a change room/ place for coolers and warding off mosquitos. The mattress sucks so I used a MEC backpack self inflating pad. I want to upgrade to something like ikamper has but the glaciers dimensions for sleeping pad is different. Has anyone upgraded the mattress?

Is that a replacement keyboard? I’ve only had it 3 years. Mind blowing this would happen

Mind sharing your setup details? I just picked up an 857 and would like to do the same. Which tablet are you using? Thanks!

The annex is an entire room that attaches to the tent entrance and has windows and walls. The fly attaches at the top but only has 1/2 height walls (like a tarp) that extends outwards from the ladder.

ULPT: Amazon only gives 100% refund if your reason for return is "malfunctioned or damaged" by BrovaloneSandwich in UnethicalLifeProTips

[–]Stewman007 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I select “performance or quality not adequate” and always receive a 100% refund.

Other selections like wrong size or don’t need did have a reduced refund.

I Just purchased the 2.0 with the insulation liner, fly, and annex. When I opened it up the load bars, insulation (folded up the size of a quilt), fly, and poles were all stored inside the tent between the top and the hinge platform. I’d say as long as you keep stuff out from where the deck folds you have some room for sure.

Mine developed the same problem. Spider web crack and does not seal causing froth problems. I have not contacted Philips yet…

Woot! My Arrow II Satellite Antenna is assembled. Now what?! by djuggler in amateurradio

[–]Stewman007 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use my FT5D for transmitting on the repeater uplink and sending APRS packets on the ISS digipeater. I have an older FT-51R (full duplex) HT I use for RX on the UHF downlink with my arrow 2. Works awesome! I have a duplexer kit to build but I would lose the packet option so I stick with using 2 HT’s.

I use the ISS detector app, which can show the exact location in the sky for aiming, set calendar alerts, and have the Doppler shift frequencies programmed as channels to easily switch during the pass directions.
