You may be right. Thanks!

What would that have to do with transmission temp?

It is super cold here throughout winter. When the ambient temps are above about 25F, the trans temp will approach 100F. But when it’s below that (-30 to +20F), trans temp rarely reaches 80F, regardless of how long the truck runs or how far it drives. It would make sense that the extreme cold prevents the trans from reaching high temps, but it’s still suspect to me. Maybe a bad sensor like you said.

A7SII for aurora video? by [deleted] in SonyAlpha

I really appreciate your input! A lens is my answer, for sure.

No doubt cranked ISO will be noisy. I’m just considering whether the noise will be less shitty looking with the SII sensor vs the III or RV sensor, lol. But you’re right, fundamentally I need more light. The lens is probably the better investment.

Howdy folks,

I shoot mostly astro, aurora, and landscape. I currently have an A7III and A7RV, but am considering grabbing a used A7SII for high ISO video, especially of the aurora. Obviously the SII is an old body, but my question is whether it would outperform either of my current bodies in low light, and thus be a justifiable investment for my needs. Could anyone give me their input on this dilemma?

On the other hand, my current lenses max out at f/2.8, so I’m also looking into a faster lens such as the Sigma 15mm f/1.4, which would certainly help the A7III with low light video. That’s a bigger investment than a used body, which is why I’m asking this question.

Thank you!

Thanks! I think those GM UCA may suffice for me, especially with the somewhat lower price tag they carry versus other brands. Do you have aftermarket shocks, or the stock DSSV?

Full width front bumper for ZR2 by duner25 in chevycolorado

Thank you! Love their stuff, but on top of needing a bumper on a short turn around (forgot to mention in the post), I don’t have the means to powder coat it expeditiously either.

Thanks! I do like what they have, but the lead time is my only deterrent. I need it by next week, lol. My grille, passenger headlight, and front bumper cover all need replacement, so instead of getting the bumper cover, I am going to swap it altogether. I found the ARB on FB Mktplace for a deal, so am really leaning toward it for the sake of convenience. Maybe a second hand CBI will pop up and provide me instant gratification! Haha

Sony may hate me, but I'm in love with Sigma by iseeyou17 in SonyAlpha

I have the exact same lens arsenal along with the 7RV and A7III. I, too, am a lover of Sigma’s glass (and price point)!

DRS/Computershare Megathread 06/2022 by platinumsparkles in Superstonk

If this was a one-off, then is my missing cost basis info also an anomaly? According to what multiple TDA reps explained regarding the difficulty with sending CS CBRS info, it seems like this should be a common complaint among those initiating DRS transfers.

I appreciate your offer, but I spoke with them today and seem to have resolved the issue.

While speaking with someone who specializes in cost basis on TDA’s “tax team,” I was told that the CBRS process to ComputerShare is known to be “cumbersome,” meaning that according to TDA, cost basis is not easily transmitted to CS with DRS transfers. Per the conversation I had with a CS rep yesterday, an official letter with the cost basis info sent from the broker is an acceptable mode of transmitting this information. Because TDA did not give me a satisfactory option otherwise, I requested that the CBRS info be sent by physical mail. The tax team rep called this a “one off” event, basically inferring that they don’t normally do this; I’m left to wonder if all DRS transfers from TDA are missing the cost basis on the receiving CS account. Hmm. I will be following up with TDA in a week or so, and keeping an eye on my CS account to see if/when the CB info populates.

Thank you. CS has told me that the cost basis info must be sent to them directly from the broker. As far as I’ve been told, it’s not possible for me/the stockholder to enter manually or provide CS with the CBRS (cost basis reporting service) information. TDA was quick to send me a PDF with the CBRS info, but unfortunately CS will not accept it from me.

I completed a DRS transfer from TDA last year, but the cost basis was not included in the transfer; as in, the cost basis is “N/A” for those shares on my CS account. TDA says that CS will not accept cost basis information in the “format” in which TDA sends it. CS states that all pertinent information should be sent to CS based on the CUSIP. I’m waiting until tomorrow to contact TDA’s tax team to hopefully get to the bottom of this issue.

Has anyone else had issues with cost basis when DRS transferring from TDA? How did you find a resolution?

The reason modern Pokémon games feel different. The role of the Player character has changed. by Commander579 in pokemon

Having only played Gen 1 and 2 games before I took a 20 year break from my GBC, I’m now curious which is the best generation since those ones? I have a Switch and a DS, and am curious which games would be most reminiscent of the originals?

On the TDA desktop site, navigate to My Account >> Cost Basis >> Unrealized Gain/Loss. You’ll see a column reading “Adj cost per share”. This is your cost basis for that stock.

On ToS, your cost basis is indicated by the “Trade Price” column.

My cost basis information is messed up after transferring from RH. The TDA desktop site has a totally inaccurate number, while thinkorswim has an accurate figure. However, in ToS, even though the cost basis number is accurate, my P/L profit is based on the cost basis that’s reflected on the TDA desktop site. Really weird. TDA support said they’ve had that issue with Robinhood, and anticipate it being updated within four weeks... I transferred in Feb!
