Thanks for the info. My problem was that I first did the windows app and found the net from the number. I expected to do the same on the cell phone app. Thanks for how to do a quick search by the name (*USA-GNG*) to find it. I added it to my favorites.

It is a requirement that you post up the best Mexican restaurants you hit along the way. Where had the best red/green chili, enchiladas, tamales, and last but not least... menudo ? ,

Like your response, love your sigline. If I had more space in my sigline I would add my favorite... Your just jealous because the voices don't talk to you :laughing: I drive what I drive because I love it, the complements I get are nice, but I didn't build it for them. I built it for ME ...

Where did you get this info? Not to be contentious, but AH rating is AH rating. Discharging a lithium battery too far can cause issues. Trust me, I design battery solutions for military and space. The battery should shut down to prevent discharging too far, since this can be dangerous, as in...

With the advent of social media and the internet, everything has changed. Being almost 70, I have a different take on life than the latest generation. I am far from a Ludite. I grew up on a farm 20 miles from a small town in the middle of the mountains of Colorado, with a crank telephone...

Been a while since I was there. This tells me I need to go back. Nice photos.

I grew up in West Texas before moving to Colorado. Ended up inheriting some land in Kerrville.

looking good!

The issue with this is that you have to set the battery type with the dip switch. Both batteries would have to be the same.

Pretty much. Charge controllers should be able to limit the charge current. Just beware, the panel says 180W. That is in ideal conditions rarely seen outside the lab. Over a days sunlight time, you will be lucky to average 100W.

Just as an update for those who haven't eaten Spam in years... There is no longer the gelatin surrounding the Spam in the can and it now has significantly less fat. We grew up poor. Spam was a treat. I still love it and probably eat a can a week. Heck I even went to the Spam Museum in...

I did that but the other half of my post was dealing with how to get EchoLink to give me a selection for connecting like the PC based app does.

You asked for windshield pix.:blush:

I overland because of photograpy.

Here's a few pix of one of my adventures. I actually did all the body work and put it back like new and wheeled it for 4 more years before the unibody started coming apart at the seams. The funniest part is that I drove it back from Moab (400 miles on the interstate) that way. I got on...

The root problem here is that the two batteries have different chemistries, voltages, and charge profiles.

Yes you can charge a battery directly from a solar panel. You can also overcharge a battery directly from a solar panel, destroying it. Also, if you don't at least put a diode in series with the panel, you can also discharge a battery directly to a solar panel. Charge controllers can be had...

For any of you old farts, how many screwed around with blue boxes and phreaking phones.
