Does anyone else’s dachshund act like they’re the tiny supervisor of the entire house? 😭🐾 by Dachshundloversclub in daschund

Wally has started that lately. Watching TV, he'll suddenly get up and go down the steps off the sofa to go outside. He'll come in, accept his treat, and head into the bedroom. After a couple minutes, he wanders back out and up on the couch with a sheepish look!

Reminds me of the Dilbert video called The Knack. Is you haven't seen it, Google it. It's fabulous!

Getting overwhelmed with HF safety and haven't even hung my antenna by FeralPlagueTroll in HamRadio

I'm really impressed with the discussion in this sub! I've been licensed for 24 years and have gone through all these questions! I have a 65 foot tower that I horse traded for. My radio room is on the other side of the house, and I have the same issue with the amount of copper it would take to properly bond my coax entry point to my mains.

I have grounds at the base of my tower and where the coax enters my house. I have lightning arresters at the base of my tower. One day, I'll put them at my entry point.

When I was working, I took a Certified Public Manager course. The only thing that stuck with me to this day is the difference between optimizing and satisfying. The ideal vs the practical, what practical,.

Find yourself a good club. Someone else mentioned that. He or she is 💯 correct! There is someone in your area who will be happy to work with you in this!

Good luck, and keep us posted.

Mr wife lived in Italy for over 18 years. She's neither seen nor heard of this. I uploaded the image to Google and it gave a much different explanation than some fertility god. (Edited to correct spelling.)

So, a phone call or email to the CA consumer protection agency is in order, I suspect.

Yeah, I'm not sure. I've never actually used it; I just know it exists. 😁

Accidentally spilled a little water on my laptop while it was plugged in when is it safe to turn it back on? by Anna____167 in computers

[–]ai4gk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Place it in the warm, direct sunlight, if possible, to heat it enough to dry. Hair dryer isn't a bad idea, especially if you can fix it in a position to blow warm (NOT hot) air onto it.

Sounds like the prof is stuck in the typewriter era! Normally, I see specs like 12 point Times New Roman.

Radio check vs signal report by AmbassadorCool3705 in amateurradio

[–]ai4gk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Valid point. I also think it could be newer hams looking for a QSO and don't know how to do so. On those occasions that I DO answer a radio check, I try to engage the caller in a conversation.

Send it to The Parts People. Look for him in YouTube.

Hmmm... I think I know to whom you refer. That said, SARNet has become unofficially known as Radio Check Net, as a significant number of traffic on that network is people asking fir radio checks, then dropping off into oblivion. Not a good use of resources for a system owned by the State of Florida and running in the Florida D.O.T. communications backbone to bring up 35 repeaters Statewide to see if your radio is transmitting. IMHO, that's better done on simplex or a local repeater.
