As a 30+ years volunteer firefighter I would recommend a smoke alarm in every room except maybe the kitchen...including the stairway going down to the basement if you have one. We have so MANY different electronics spread out within our homes that are plugged in 24/7 and you never know when one of them could fail while the whole family is sleeping with bedroom doors closed. Play it safe and over protect your loved ones. Bob

Here's the latest report on our trout streams (rivers)...I'll update it later today IF there is any more info to pass on. http://www.buffalonews.com/sports/other/fishing-line/article355541.ece Bob

That was a fun report to read.... Bob

Not really......I seen the Gold Rush thing....not my cup of tea....don't really know what the Swampers are making on that show but I did read that the four on Pawn Stars all make over 100k including Chumlee.....he's the most sought after autograph of the bunch. Going to Vegas next month and hoping to visit their shop....but that was also the plan back in August....just so much to do in Vegas and so little time and MONEY... Bob

If that is true, then at $19 per head, it sounds like a VERY high price....

After further review of that link it seems like a warehouse type electronic store that does a lot of online business....So you probably will not get much advice from the box stuffer that work there.....You're better off looking in your yellow pages to find a independent satellite installer and or store to get the necessary parts needed....just tell they you want to do it yourself and want to buy the parts from them. Bob

OK....I looked at the link s2k4mee provided near the top of this tread....it looks like the systems have been advanced since I installed mine and now are using splitter SWITCHES in place of two lines from the dish, etc....so here's the best advice I can give you now since they are no longer wired as I am use to....which is probably easier for you anyways.... Go to this link.... http://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=164_170&item_id=012897 ...... and find the contact phone # and call them telling them exactly what you are trying to add to your system and what you already have in the system now.....I'm sure they can and WILL help you add the necessary switches to Get 'R Done... Bob

YES, that helps me a LOT....you should have two coax cables running into the back of the receiver from the Dish......go check and let me know...

This is mearly a copied and twisted about Lansky Knife Sharpening System that was developed here in Buffalo, NY over 20 years ago. But I'm sure both system work VERY well....I have also seen other different variations of the Lanksy Sytem from other copy cats. http://www.lanskysharpeners.com/contact.php

Since you don't have a second receiver you shouldn't have another coax cable coming from the LNB on the Dish (UNLESS you have a dual DVR receiver).....now it's possible that your Dish only has a single LNB on it...if so you first need to change that out to a dual LNB and then run the second coax cable down from the dish to the second receiver.....now if you have a DVR with dual tuner capacity like my TIVO than you need to have both coax cable running to a 4way switch box and then 2 coax cables run to EACH receiver. This sounds completed but it's NOT....easy peasy..... Bob

If you are referring to the part of splitting signal AFTER the receiver, well then both TV's will receive whatever channel the receiver is on...can't be help...only way you can receive different channels on two TV's is have two receivers. The TV is really only a monitor when a satellite system is installed. The tuner is in the satellite receiver box unlike none HD cable systems. Bob

You're exactly right.....Cabela's purchased all the reconditioned units from Lowrance which is great news for someone trying to get the latest Sonar/GPS unit without having to pay the full price. Bob

You can on my lawn.....only problem.....it might not be there when you need it......

If you split the signal AFTER the receiver it will work BUT both TV's will receive the same channel....if you want to watch independent channels you need a duel LNB at the dish and TWO receivers which will cost you a extra monthly fee.

Recently there has been a few posts from guys asking about fish finders and with today's economy everyone is trying to save a buck...so with that said Cabela's emailed me this notice and I thought I would pass it on.. http://www.cabelas.com/browse.cmd?categoryId=107036280&WT.tsrc=EML&WT.mc_id=email-bc&eid=39774&cmp=I110311A&seg=FI1&cnt=6726&ctb=browse.cmd Bob

With your sales tax at 13% take back the reels and repurchase them tomorrow..

Question: what tastes better the fish or the bait...LOL Nice report... :clapping:

Jay, no disrespect here to you or the original poster and I looked at the website in question....looks GREAT from what I can see and would love to spend a week there. Having said all that, if I hired a guide (never had) I would expect said guide to know the waters he/she is taking me into and have all the knowledge about catching the native fish in that body of water from years of experience on that body of water and not from a couple of weeks of crash course fishing 101 on Great Slave Lake... It might have been better if this was not posted for the Frontier Fishing Lodge's reputation as far as their guides. Bob

You got that right....LOL..... :rofl2:

What's NEW is we have 24/7 New Channels that are run by Liberals....so to them it's always doom and gloom.....plus it sells....

The Ark thing is MUCH more complicated now a days.....if you collect 2 of each animal and one is gay does that count....just saying....not that there's anything wrong with that..... BTW it would take 80 days and 80 nights of rain because now we have sewers...LOL

Excellent job to be proud of..... :clapping: Makes me laugh...as I took my 1985 motor in last week my dealer told me, you know Bob this is a OLD motor...he was more interested in selling me a new one then repairing my OLD one....but I said "Fran it still runs great"...old my I though as I walked back to my truck...

Just another challenge mother nature throws our way.....you never know what you will wake up to some days...

I try, I REALLY try to understand Salty but it's VERY hard between the spelling and grammar challenges....maybe Salty is hitting the hard stuff...

HEY WAIT A MINUTE>>>>>HOLD ON HERE.......let's not get extreme over a few extra coyotes....my western Redneck brothers like to control the prairie dog population with their well stock arsenals. Too many coyotes in that area would throw off the balance of western culture......LOL But the good part of your post was the yote was in pursuit of a CAT...
