David,

So, whats everyone doing these days on the air?

Mostly nets. I run D-Star Nets every night of the week except
Wednesday, when I check into an Echolink and a D-Star Net. I also check
into a packet net (via telnet) on Monday. Otherwise, all my nets are
D-Star.

However, being caregiver for my elderly Mom has make the hobbies take
a bit of a back seat for awhile.

David,

Hey my friend, just testing my connection to FidoNet after my hub
went down due to Florance. Got me 59?

Sorry for the delay in replying. I shut the BBS down in mid-September,
to prepare for a move back to my Mom's place from my apartment (she's
now in a nursing home). I've had router and internet issues, and still
have to get a ton of stuff to get unpacked. The Technician is coming by
in the morning.

But, if I can't get the wx1der.dyndns.org deal to work anymore, I'll
be forced to abandon the VADV-PHP website (which I liked much better
than Synchronet's web interface), and use the default Synchronet
interface, which I consider bland compared to VADV-PHP.

My QWK mail packet was 2131k, so I've got a lot of mail to read before bed...but I may skip a lot of it....since I have an early wake-up call.
After the Technician gets done, I may drive the 30 miles to Lonoke to
visit my Mom. I've been so busy with other things that I haven't had a
chance to get over there. Plus, I don't want to drive over there if the
weather is bad...and we have a risk of severe storms here Halloween and Halloween night.

I may have different ones for the various networks, but except for the network name, the rest is the same.

With all the stress I've been under over the last month with moving
back to my Mom's home, getting her into a nursing home, dealing with the finances surrounding it, and then with modem/router/internet issues, I'm
going to have a lot of catching up to do on the BBS. My QWK packet was

Well, I lost my Dad almost 12 years ago now, and my wife died 2 1/2
months after he did. I'll have a ton of work after my Mom dies, but at
least I have her house, her car, and my possessions. I doubt she'll ever
come home from the nursing home (she's 92), and there's no way she can

I know but first of all I'm in no hurry to get messages faster because I
won't get more time to do them and I have no users that wont other areas
than I carry, but I actually have a more modern machine to set in after I
can find/get hold of PCI card containing a PS/2 mouse socket.

Whatever else there is on that card won't matter because the one I have
does have only one USB port and an IrConnector in addition to the PS/2.

As a last resort I could use an USB mouse but that leaves only 2 USB's
for other uses on the 3-port USB card.

ARRL usually sent a bulletin specifying its operating hours for bulletin bradcasts but it hasn't arrived yet even though we are today at the
first sunday of november.

What are those test pits for?

to know what the soil material is like and how much weight it can
hold as well as the moisture content... all this for the foundations
and concrete pads the structures will be built on...

Those kinds of projects and tests are done here too. Bed-rock isn't too
far down here but you have to be careful to reach that for foundation.

Some architects are dreaming of creating a floating island of houses.
The problem here is that the city is built on a narrow point of land and
can only expand north and south.

However in the north there is a rural district that is growing by itself
and to the south are islands that are or can be reached by bridges.

I'm on my way. Yesterday I found and bought a 4-port USB PCI-card and a
USB mouse. Now I have to find/buy USB extensions that allows me to reach
two ports from the front. I can't creep to the back of the machine every
time I want to reach an USB port.

you do know that USB HUBs exist, right? you plug on into a USB port
and now you have more USB ports... IIRC, USB can handle up to 256
devices on each port/channel...

I have learnt that it's not that simple. I have a floppy unit that
connects to a laptop. On one laptop it can only read the files but
isn't able to write on the disk's because the current available from
the USB port isn't enough to write to the diskette.

The solution is of course to use two ports to supply the current by
using a Y-extension that connects to two ports and then to the floppy
drive.

I'm going to move all files that are on floppys now to USB-sticks.


Have a nice day,

David,

Glad you could make it in here. Welcome to the party! Who else do we
have lurking around here?

Daryl, WX4QZ, in Little Rock, Arkansas. I've had things outside of the
BBS and ham radio take priority lately, so I've been taking some time off
from answering QWK Mail. However, I try to update the weather and ham
radio bulletins on the BBS, when weather permits.

Daryl

... Well, to be frank, I'd have to change my name.

John,

we lost power for about a day at our house, and 2 days so far at work.

I was on a Zoom Meeting with the Portage County Amateur Radio Service
(PCARS) Club in Ohio last night. Right after they drew the 50/50 (the
winner wasn't me, but he donated it back to the club), my power went out!!
I had to email one of the officers, noting "my disappearance wasn't due to
my going off in a temper tantrum, because I didn't win...but apparently,
some idiot took out a power pole. It was out for 5 minutes in total. I'm
going my nets via the Verizon Mi-Fi and the laptop, in case that happens
again.
