    76 degrees out here. thinking i might sleep good tonight without the truck.

    WRONG.

    central parks on one side. england parks on the other. but are running with fans on. and the temp jumps up 10 degrees.

    thinking i'll put out my bi directional exhaust hose. hook up to my weed burner exhaust. and route each side under each engine. let their fans blow the exhaust into their cabs. :biggrin_2559:

    I'm still using an expensive Hauppage TV tuner for my laptop, and it doesn't pull in the stations very well. Which one did you get, and does it receive stations better?

    Thanks

    it says kworld. bought it from amazon. did a google and some guy posted his likings on different tuners. he highly recommended that one. $35.

    haven't played with it much. but what i see. not many stations so far. but at least it pulls down streaming video.

    my hauppage would pick up the channels. but streaming was like it had very piss poor reception.

    kworld picked up 40 stations at home. more hten hauppage. but in coby kansas. it only picked up one. see how it does here in gary indiana.

    Nice. Are you still using the scangauge and did it help you to improve your mileage?

    after that last repair. i think i'm laying off the scangauge. the shop took it apart and left it laying all over the dash. AHOLES.

    there's a possibility that it MAY be burning up sensors. so it's gonna collect dust now. i've had a couple of times where the engine just shut down. had to unplug the gauge before she would fire back up.
