Friday Feb 02, 2018, 01:23:46 AM
Do you think the networks will ever broadcast in 4K ?

If so, how many years away ?

Thanks.

On/Off Topic Chit-Chat / I need a new water softener
Tuesday Jan 02, 2018, 12:51:34 AM
I need a new softener to replace our 19 year old Culligan unit. I'm thinking of a GE, which is highly rated on Hone Depot's website.

Does anyone have a specific recommendation?

Thanks.

Milwaukee HDTV Technical Issues / Cheap indoor FM antenna
Friday Aug 04, 2017, 02:22:09 PM
I want to improve the FM reception of my stereo. A cheap set of rabbit ears should do that, correct ? Does it matter which one I buy?

Thanks.

Other than Craigslist. I think Best Buy only recycles sets up to 27".

It's in excellent condition, but we just don't use it.

Thanks.

On/Off Topic Chit-Chat / Does anyone have a metal roof ?
Tuesday Mar 22, 2016, 02:22:08 PM
If so, who did the installation? I want to get a couple estimates.

How does the cost compare to a fiberglass shingle roof?

Thanks.

I need to buy a router/ modem, and I want it to be future proof for a while.

Is a modem and router that has speeds up to 100 Mbps all that's required?

Or should I look for a 300 Mbps unit?

Thanks.

I want to buy a modem/router combo unit to avoid paying TWC's lease fee and Wi-Fi fee.

Budget about $125. Can anyone recommend a good one?

Thanks.

Thanks.

I have EarthLink high speed internet and was curious if you rent or own your router, and why?

Currently I use the included Motorola modem and own a Netgear router. I had a problem this weekend with my router, and could not access the internet. I had to go thru a bunch of BS with Netgear over the phone, but it's working now. The router had to be re-configured and new firmware installed.

Thanks.

On/Off Topic Chit-Chat / Treating well water due to Iron
Thursday Jul 31, 2014, 11:16:18 PM
We just had a well drilled, and now we need to treat the iron in the water. What do you guys use? Just a water softener? A whole house iron filter?

A guy from Culligan tested our water today, and said we need a whole house iron filter or a new "All-in-one" water softener that also treats the iron in the water. I'm just not sure if he's trying to sell us their expensive equipment.

Thanks.

Latest News / TWC and Comcast to merge
Thursday Mar 27, 2014, 02:28:53 AM
I got a letter in the mail today stating this. It basically said it should be complete by the end of this year, with more info to come in the future.

What will this mean to TWC customers? I just have high speed internet with EarthLink.

On/Off Topic Chit-Chat / I need an indoor FM antenna
Wednesday Mar 19, 2014, 06:05:39 PM
I need an indoor FM antenna for my receiver. Something not too large, so it is hidden behind my TV.

How do I know if I need a powered one?

Is there a website that will help me decide this?

I read that VHF rabbit ears work well for FM. Is that true?

Thanks.
