    Did you know?

    Geeze Louise! That's really something. The weird thing is... Apollo went to the moon and back with state of the are computers (at that time) and now kid's portable hand held Game Boys are almost triple the computing power! At my age... I am going to stick to slip sitting and fishing!

    Garmin GMR 41/Routing/EMI Shielding

    Here is a rather inexpensive idea to attempt to eliminate EMF interfearance on electronic devices. It works for me on my ham rig and mobile radios. Place ferrite chokes (filters) around the signal lead cables and the power cables as close to the electronic devices as you can. Ferrite cores come...

    LED Trailer Lights, My Experience

    This sounds too simple... but it makes sense :idea . Here it goes, What he did was seal off any areas in the light housing back plate with silicone caulk and used the regular single sided sticky tape for a gasket behind the lens cover. When he attached the lens cover to the light's back plate he...

    LED Trailer Lights, My Experience

    Just a thought. Has anyone ever tried "liquid-tite" boxes and conduit? The higher end stuff is rated to 10 psi and still remain water tight. The reason for the question is when the light assembly was placed in a bucket of water... it was under maybe a foot. That's roughly 1/2 psi. I have had...

    Moldy window seals

    One other substance you can use that is more efficient than bleach is Hydrogen Peroxide. At the drug store it comes in 3% peroxide concentrations. Hydorgen peroxide is a stronger oxidizer than bleach (household bleach 6% Sodium Hypochlorite) and less strong as the gas Ozone. The good thing about...

    Bob you are so correct... The EPA has published Ozone exposure time weighted average concentrations for Ozone gas exposure. I am having a senior moment here and can't recall the allowable concentration for human protection over an 8 hour exposure period. It is a Time Weighted Average (TWA) for...

    I have found you could pick up an Ozone generator at a pretty good price from any top line pet store that caters to the salt water aquarium hobbiest. I got my Ozone generator from a place called "That Fish Place" just outside of Lancaster, PA. This store does a REALLY BIG volume of business over...

    A Big Thanks To Les

    I have been reading the threads on C-Brat for more than 2 + years. The one thing that stands out beyond all else is the support Les and EQ have lended to the C Dory family. There is something to be said about the old fashioned way of doing business. Honesty, truthfulness, and supreme service...

    antenna splint

    Standing Wave Ratio (SWR) is a ratio of maximum voltage to minimum voltage along a feed line (Coax between the Transmitter and Antenna). Also... SWR involves how well the feed line impedance is matched to the antenna impedance; i.e. 50 ohm to 50 ohm. The latter should not be an issue if the...

    My neighbor used a product on his boat called Aztec that was supposed to be a solid PVC material . As I recall it was 3/4" thick and came in various sizes. He got his at Shone Lumber in New Castle, DE. I believe they have a web page. If it is PVC the only issue I can think of is the expansion...

    Guys.... my grandad would ask me to take a step back and really analyze the question at issue here. I tried (did for what its worth) to and realized it's the little things that will bind a group together such as sharing tidbits that can bring a smile or in our case some unique pride to our Dory...

    Gerald Ford

    President Ford should go down in History as a President that pulled the nation together in one of her darkest hours; the resignation of a President. In looking back, my humble opinion is he was exactly what the country needed at that time... a moderate that was liked and generally accepted by...
