but you need to explain why volts are better in blue.

No I don't.

green would actually have been my first choice.

Like who ever thought that wasn't gunna happen ? Will T'rump and his BFF Putin fall out? Will T'rump notice that Putin is stringing him along? What happens then? Does that mean Putin has a deadline for reconnecting Kaliningrad to mainland Russia at the Suwałki gap, or as some have suggested, restor...

Hand to god! Baby geese... goslings. They were juggled!

I have a picture somewhere of daffodils in full flower, weighed down by about 3 inches of snow. I recall it was taken in early April about 8 years back. Very unusual for the south west of England, but it does happen from time to time. For the past three weeks the weather has been unusually warm and...

What I find much more telling is how many owners of such animals' appearance is so very much like them. It's as if looking like you were swallowing your face were a cultural value or something. :lol: mnem "It's like watching a train wreck; you're horrified, but you can't look away..."

"I suspect that, as with the BBC, that is because there is no pressure from the advertisers to create ever more episodes until the content becomes homeopathic. Yes M*A*S*H, I'm looking at you" probably why we still praise the quickly canceled "firefly" . if they had killed off &...

I can't remember the series. It was about 1958. I remember those other series including Lost In Space and Voyage To The Bottom of The Sea. There are some episodes on Youtube. They seemed great at the time but crude and dated now. I always thought Space Patrol was silly. Star Trek wasn't much later ...

The Strand is in the West End; that would have been deserted since most things would have been shut by law on a Sunday, except newspaper shops and corner shops. In some ways I miss Sunday being special, but not in others. There are some counties in New Jersey that still have Sunday "Blue Laws&...

As for the larger issue surrounding the whole shitty mess... yeah, it's a shitty mess. As has been mentioned; "volunteer" shitty mess. :roll: It sucks, but I think this is a "pick your battles" scenario. You're probably best off treating it as a life lesson about working with dum...

In this case it'll be a bit drawn-out, I'd wager. My experience with 3DP suggests this process: 1: Get parts to a nerd-friend who 3DPs. Bring lots of favorite food/alcohol. 2: Brainstorm a design in Frustion3D; print it. 3: Get close; redesign, print again. 4: repeat step 3 n times, where n = point ...

Yeah, it does appear that even on these those traces might be Siamesed into a single trace... I didn't see that at first. A trap for new players, yo.

*tzzzzzzzt.*

I believe the connectors if not the supply voltages and the pinning (most certainly not!) are the same as for the TM500 series modular instruments. For those, a so-called JAMMA extender cable reportedly can be used, once a bridge in the PCB joining a couple of adjacent pins has been removed. I've g...
