What’s in the trunk? Maybe some cinder blocks to do wheelies all over the place!

Looking at the rainy forecast ahead, a warming trend is also beginning! Spring is coming! Warm-season lawn owners, it’s time to put down the pre-emergent. It’s never too early to battle poa annua!

New neighbor, new fence, new screws around the yard. Glad to have a magnetic sweeper - an absolute must-have item for all your suburban surprises!

Side roads and parking lots are ice rinks in Gwinnett County this morning. Main roads and I-85 appear to be in good shape.

Very icy conditions in suburban Atlanta. 25° and dropping. Took almost 1.5 hours to drive home from work - 7 miles away.

Snow day today. Listening to KLZU tower frequency informing the pilot of the cleared runway and landing lights maxed out for enhanced visibility.

Tried my best using Black Cat Systems SSTV app to decode the ISS SSTV transmission, but was trying to keep the volume down. /1

Saw this in the Kohl’s clearance section. I’m not sure what’s going on here. Black Santa Fourth of July Pilgrim Gnome?

It’s always good to find the problem! Delaminated lifter roller deformed the #8 exhaust cam lobe.

Having a fun time on 14.230 doing some slow scan TV (SSTV) in Martin M1. Made contact with KO3D a couple times. Nice graphics!

Nothing fancy, just classic. A little Wild Turkey 101 for some Saturday afternoon tipple.

Going straight in for another cam and lifter job on a 2018 Silverado. On this generation truck, the front end comes apart like it’s meant to happen.

It’s that time to decorate the Christmas tree! I may have had a slight influence.

Did a little flux core welding this past weekend. Very impressive welds from a 120V machine - even running a few cap welds. The anti-spatter spray is a must for flux core!

This seems a little more accurate with most played songs per month of 2024. Definitely brings me back to those months listening to these songs in the past year.

I definitely appreciate Apple Music making these annual music statistics reviews, but I definitely didn’t choose to listen to Foo Fighters “Everlong” 40+ times. I don’t even have that album downloaded. I typically let it rip on shuffle most days at work, if I’m not listening to an album.

I feel like this type of phone call has possibly happened in the recent few months. Excellent movie, by the way! youtu.be/VEB-OoUrNuk?...

Another day, another engine. Cam and lifters for this 6.2L with a noisy #6 lifter. See the scored lifter roller? Doesn’t take much nowadays!

AB2FI and another station speaking true Jamaican Patois with some English sprinkled in on 20m this evening.

ZS1UOK coming in clear as a bell on 20m into the Atlanta area. Lovely DX phasing sounds with his signal from South Africa.

It’s that time of year to use the 15 year-old decorating sprinkles for Christmas cookies!

Nothing beats a Wawa hoagie - especially in Florida when visiting family. Wawa was a Philadelphia-area deli that turned into a gas station, but now people just know it as a gas station - which is sad, because the food is a primary focus still to this day. …Wawa with palm trees is still weird.

How I diagnosed the lifter from the previous post. Removed the valve cover to see what’s going on with the misfire. Notice the back lifter not moving - indicating a collapsed AFM lifter on cylinder 7. All with a little help from the XYL!

Throwback from this past summer when I put new lifters in my truck. Cam and rollers looked good. AFM lifter got stuck down. May as well do them all - Basically a maintenance item with a 5.3L Chevy!

This was one of my father’s favorite songs to sing the harmonies; I remember on occasional evenings, many years ago, where he’d crank up some Elton and sing along. youtu.be/yir2iYiQ0qQ?...

Another night of enhanced 2m propagation on 2m! Not hearing many DX repeaters, but it may always change.
