I don’t use the wireless access to my network anymore. So I have turned off the wireless part of the network for security reasons. I figure since I don’t use it anymore it is more of a security liability. I don’t use the air port card on the Mac iBook anymore. Nor do I use[…]
I finally found my first music station on the short wave radio bands. The stuff that they had on that station was nothing like what you would find on the local (nationally owned) commercial stations. Normally I will make jokes about country and blue grass music as not being real music, but this stuff is[…]
I was messing around with my camera and my fish and taking some pictures of the fish, most of them did not turn out well at all, but one of them turn out to be that 1 in a 1000 pictures. I got lucky with this shot, the tank is 10 gallons large, and I[…]
Today I did some gardening work in my 2 10 gallon betta tanks. I also did some work in the 10 gallon take I had setup for the baby fish when they were born in my other tank; I have since moved them back to the 20 gallon tank. I am thinking that the 10[…]

I deleted some old photos on my photo section. I freed up about 100Mb on my space at my hosting company. So this should allow me to add some other pictures to my web site. I right now only have 280Mb free on my account. I have over 1.5 GB of photos on my web[…]
I am thinking it would be nice to have a small desk just for my Mac. I would like to put it opposite of my other computers in my technology section of my apartment. I might have to move some things around in my apartment if I get a new table for the place for[…]
The temperature here has finally fallen below the 80 degree F. I have now turned of the AC unit. I was running the last 3 months because I wanted to keep the temperature of my fish tanks below 90, since if the temperature went above 90 I could loss my fish. Now that it is[…]
I have been putting together the core objects for the SWlogger program. I have so far defined the info I want to track, I am thinking the next step would be to build a testing interface. Once I get a test interface done, I will then go on to testing the interface and the core[…]
The other day I picked up miscellaneous plugs from Radio shack the other day. I plan on building a cable to go from my computer to my Icom 2100H radio. Also I am going to try setup a packet station. I will not be on all the time like some other stations would be, but[…]
I was messing around with Google Earth. I zoomed in on the point (Point State park) and when I looked at it, there was something out of place. When I zoomed in closer there were boats on the land. And I realized that the picture that they are using for that view is from last[…]
Last night I went to record my scanner (I did this to test the recording software.) and it worked well, I set it to record a radio station (an FM station, but the thing being record is unimportant right now) and the software recorded the audio well, the only problem there was scanner changed station[…]
I just looked over at the National Hurricane Center, and I saw that we are up to Jose, there is also 2 more areas of possible Tropical cyclone development. There is one near Florida; it is so close to land I don’t think it will develop into anything of note. But there is one in[…]
I tryed to make my last entry but every time I tryed to enter it I would get that it was forbidding. So I ended up posting with the Title as test and the entry text as test, and then I selected all the sections I wanted I wanted it in. After entering the post,[…]
I am working on finding a good way to record the stuff I listen to off of the short wave radio. and off of the scanner. So far I have tried GarageBand but that has a limit of 1 hour and fifteen minutes. Right now I am trying a program called AudaCity, if it works[…]
