  1. I've had one for about a year now. Many videos on YouTube with instruction on how to program the streaming box. Movies and TV shows don't seem to be a problem. Live TV can be hit or miss, at least for me.

     

    I just updated my version of Kodi to the most recent 17.5. Then loaded one of the newest "builds" or even load specific programing individually. I just find the builds easier as all the content I would ever want has been gathered in one download. Some work better than others, so you may have to factory reset your box and reload to see what works better for you. Live TV can be spotty sometimes. After this newest update and programming, I'm seeing more quality streams in 720p and 1080p.

     

    Some streaming requires extra downloads to make things work like "fmtester" or "sportsdevil". I assume these are like drivers for computer software. The newest "builds" seem to have everything piled in one download.

     

    Enjoy!

  2. This should be moved to announcements but since it is for a charitable cause I will let it stay here until someone complains.

     

    Good luck with your search

    My apologies Art and thanks!

    Thanks Mike. I will definitely check it out.

    They seem to be available in your area, will the zoning laws of your intended location allow one? Since it is for an air cadet squadron you might get a break or donation of one? I am not sure how they would deliver one outside of a facility meant to deal with them, every time I picked one up they used a crane or huge outdoor forklift to place it on the transport frame.

     

    You could try calling some of the listed sellers and trying for a deal?

    I've been looking online Ohio. Waiting for a couple of places to get back to me with a quote, but I doubt the numbers will be favourable for us.

     

    You might want to try Borden and see where they get theirs from. We have them scattered around for storage.

    Fisherman, I will look into that.

  4. Reaching out to my fellow OFC'ers for help.

     

    I do volunteer work with an air cadet squadron in Mississauga, ON. We are in need of a large shipping container for storage. Preferably a 40 ft. model, but all will be considered.

     

    We are a non profit charitable organization and can issue a tax receipt for a donation or possibly purchase a used container if the price and transportation cost are within our limited budget.

     

    I've also thought about using an old transport trailer. 40 to 53 footer. However, this depends on whether our supporting legion will allow us to put it on their property. A shipping container's lower profile is less of an eyesore to the legion and it's neighbours and much more likely to get approval.

     

    Something similar to the one is this link would be ideal:

    Anybody have a connection or idea how we can make this work ?

  5. I haven't had much luck on Temagami, but did get some smallmouth trolling along the shorelines. Lost lots of lures on snags though. Talk to Irishfield. I think he's up there now, but does check in here when he can. Should be able to give you some tips to get you started.

  6. I get the privacy thing, but IMO, as soon as you refuse to allow them to do their checks, red flags go up and they now have reason to believe you're hiding something. You'll get searched extra thoroughly. If they can, they'll nail you for little things that would otherwise have been overlooked.

     

    Ask yourself this:

    Who would a judge side with ?

    The guy who refused to allow the CO's to do a routine roadside check, or the law enforcement officers conducting that check ?
