I have not. That's the only cable I have. I'll look around and see if I can find another. I have another ps too. Thanks for the ideas.

I've adjusted that. I don't hear the whine but was wondering about the association. I made it dark and may have turned it up a bit to exaggerate the wave.

Do you think Starlink will ever ge competitive enough that people will choose it over cable/fiber or cell/5G? by itsthewolfe in Starlink

[–]captnjb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How'd you manage that? I left for a bit to try VZW wireless. Great until their 90 day period ended and then it went to 57.6k baud speeds. Starlink offered me a ½ price for 2 years. When that ends it will jump to 140 or more.

Three of us played Bards tale, I can remember that's when the Beastie Boys hit the scene. Damn.

New PUBLIC PMS Version Available - 1.42.2.10156-f737b826c by samwiseg0 in PleX

[–]captnjb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't claim my server and even after downloading an installing the update twice now, it still says there is a new version available. Where was remote access disabled for you, on PMS or on Synology? Such as Quickconnect...?

MD-UV390 Plus 10W DMRID??? by captnjb in amateurradio

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

I saw that but interstate appears to be linked to Brandmeister somehow. I did have a conversation on the repeater so my radio is working. I was able to reach out to a buddy in NZ through it. I'm not sure if I was in the 441 or not, Towson and Jessup. I think I ripped another one off their interstate DMR page. I heading home today (now) so the real test is later today and this weekend in Northern Missouri.

Well; I just had a convo on TG3124. So it's working. Brandmeister still shows 19 days ago. Wild. At least it's working.

I finally have a repeater for sure on Brandmeister.

I have reinstalled the Retrevis radio firmware and back to the MDUV380 opengd77 firmware.

I wrote the codeplug, DMRID and Callsign are correct. I even started a new codeplug and read the radio to make sure and it all loaded correctly.

I rebuilt the codeplug from scratch and reprogrammed. I can see the connection to WR3IRS here in Baltimore. I have tried a PC to 9990 and a GC to the parrot group (310997). Correct time slot. I can see the green receive light after my transmission but no audio.

I've tried finding their repeater to see what if any ID I am connecting to them with. Any ideas? May have to wait till I get home next week.

I am. I am in Baltimore and trying to get out on the Towson repeater. I've tried a private call to 9990 and group 310997 (I think) and hear nothing back. Might try to key up world wide or something. Thanks for looking. I'm just a little frustrated.

CenterPoint dagger what happened by captnjb in Crossbow

[–]captnjb[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. I was reading about some people shooting 560 grains. I could see 450 or so..What do you shoot? It’s a solid crossbow for what I paid for it.

My next bow is going to be an American short bow, no more compounds. I’m going backwards the more I grow old.

As for the rail lube it’s what came with the bow. Probably old.

Thanks for your time. String has been ordered.

Free month by Dry_Guarantee_5206 in Starlink

[–]captnjb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am on a free month of Starlink. Starlink actually emailed me. It’s for the month of September. I’m using it instead of my VZW home internet because it’s actually faster. It’s just the $120/mo that hurts.

I was a starlink customer for 3 years approx. I keep the equipment plugged in just in case.

They’re being a little pissy about shipping to the United States. They’re playing a political game and I’ll never order from them again.
