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[…]
I have looked around the net for a Short Wave radio logging program. So far I have not found on that I liked. So I figured that this might be a great chance for me to work on learning SQL (mySQL). So I have started the program. Right now I am defining the classes, I[…]
Well tonight there was an interesting night. At around 5:30 the weather service got on the air looking for some one to take the net. For a few minutes no one responds. So after about 5 minutes, I decide that if no one is going to do it, I might as well do it. That[…]
I have heard a lot about the XXX domains out there. I am sad to say that my fellow Christians out there are against it. I think it is a good idea, and let me explain why I am for it. But let me first say this, I would love to see the day where[…]
I was angry with myself today. I spent 2 days debugging my code because I believed that there was an error in the code, because it was not working the way I wanted it to work. I kept going though all the objects and the code, and could not figure out why what was wrong[…]
I really like listing to Rush Limbaugh’s radio show. But today I could not listen to it for some reason or another. But I have setup the software he provides for his pod cast. For the Pod cast they take out the bumper music and the commercials. So instead of 3 1 hour shows, you[…]
http://boboblogger.mu.nu/archives/112512.php is running an entry about the bad call of the SCOTUS’s bad ruling on steal land of the government from private people. That ruling was so horrible, Rush Limbaugh spent a whole show bad mouthing the ruling. Now the Government is now just punishing the people for fighting the attempt of the Government from[…]
While I was surfing around the Short wave radio bands, I keep finding that US based stations fall into 2 main categories. The first category is the nut job Radio evangelicalisms who think that they know when the rapture will be. And the second category nut job paranoid stuff. I am not saying all Short[…]

Since I now have my short wave radio up, I might be doing some blog entries about what I hear on the short wave radio, so I figure I will add a new section for my entries for short wave radio posts.
Some times it takes listening to a foreign broadcast to realize how good we have it in the US. There was an article on Public Radio International (rebroadcast of the BBC, show was “The World Today”) about a “free” (free as in free speech not as in free beer) radio station that works just outside[…]
I finally got the wire I needed to put together the antenna for my short wave radio. I got 100 feet of speaker wire. I divided down the middle to get 200 feet of wire. I wrap it around the apartment; I almost made a full loop around the apartment. I turned it on I[…]

I think Nintendo is make a mistake with the “game key cards” the new digital only game cards that Nintendo is doing. With the situation where more 3rd parties are doing those instead of a real game card. I will not buy a game that not fully on the disc or on the cart, which[…]
Well looking at the new switch 2 that is to come out soon, I originally was excited and was thinking of pre-ordering it. But after the news of both the system, and the games, my doubt started to set in. Then I looked at the launch line up, and found none that I wanted. And[…]
