    Modified sinewave to pretty good sinewave?

    I have a decent 1100 watt modified sinewave invertor. 12 VDC to 120 VAC. Nice readout, input volts, Iout, couple warning prompts. If you have seen modified sinewave output then you are aware that it is mostly square wave with 4 shoulder levels per cycle. Pretty cheesy. Good for purely resistive...

    Wifi woes

    HOLY BAJEEBERS ANT MAN! You putting my on? That sounds stupendous. I watched video on directional homemade antennas but their angle of range was acutely narrow, tho significant boost to tran/rece capability.

    Wifi woes

    I have 10 foot extension so as to dangle my dongle outside of my travel trailer. I find it necessary to shield dongle from direct sunlight to maintain at least minimal performance.

    Wifi woes

    100% agree about placement. I have little if no say as to physical placement of router. Landlady's place across driveway. I do possess a discarded router that was working when uninstalled. Hmm.

    Can't find a PCB designer to hire for cool position. Is PCB design completely ignored in schools?

    Different art but similar. These are pre-lims.

    Desparately seeking off button

    So, what would a typical spammer be trying to do? Entice me to click on his site and offer me unbelievably good deals on audio or other electronics? Just yesterday I allowed myself to get sucked in to the survey gig. I suppose that there may be a more desirable group of people that are of...

    EMP attack!

    I had not given any prior thot to hearing lose but you do have a good point. Here is an analogy I have used which relates to the use of staccato when playing a saxophone. Base reference is Mike Shappiro or Mike Sharp. Author of song Spooky, made famous by Atlanta Rhythm something or other...

    I have become a conservative but brot apathy with me so I don't really mind

    DEFINITION OF TERMS ! Need I explain? It IS important. I can't seem to stay on topic, hence, I am here. Definition of terms is important. In some situations, paramount. When the first space shuttle was a few minutes out from landing, mission control broadcast, " Twelve minutes til splash down."...

    EMP attack!

    You are truly then blessed because I somtimes jones for the resonance of a beat that in all earnest, struck and moved my bio-hearts rhythm and seemed to alter things. When that happens, my preference is to be struck by waves which lead with rounded edges rather than zero rise and fall times...

    Correct my errors as I make them, if u please

    The initial point I was working towards in my just previous statement was that; If you negate the giggle bone anf fuse funny to lower, any existing apron (man example) will descend somewhat bringing about a perception of short=waistedness. Likewise an added giggle results in a perception of...

    Correct my errors as I make them, if u please

    I was told to believe and instructed to understand that the funny bone is connected to the giggle bone which resides at the inner end of the lower bone ( sometimes referred to as the lone bone ) at a perpendicular attitude. For non-electronic people, if this text is difficult to interpulate, u r...

    Alerts alert

    That logical now. If I have numero 2 on bell, first top 2 alerts are unread. I'll commit that to memory, so I'm good for an hour anyway.

    Crop circles. Easy reading

    I have to admit that they have a good ruse going convincing people that electricity bubbles up out of the ground like crude oil. ( I am aware that crude does not generally "bubble up" to the surface, but then again, I follow the school of thot that oil is constantly being created within the...

    Alerts alert

    I can again log in, read my alerts, log out, log in, and alerts which I have previously read, still appear. Is removal of acknowledged alerts on a 24 hour clock? I thot perhaps the grayed alert box had significance but apparently mistaken.
