    Used Zodi Shower Heater

    I put the heater part of our Zodi shower on ebay starting at $5 + shipping. I was going to buy a new pump for it but never got around to it. The heater was awesome, the Zodi supplied pump less so. Item 280704784395, located in Tucson, AZ.

    Are we fools or optimists? We just bought another Rover.

    One could argue that buying a 19-year-old Range Rover is silly, buying one 1000 miles away is crazy, and setting off on that long road trip to pick it up in a 43-year-old Land Rover with your wife and kid in the hot summer months is foolhardy. I just think of it as being optimistic. In the...

    What do I look for in a SWR meter?

    I need a SWR meter for my VHF/UHF radios, and am a little overwhelmed with the options. Do I want one that is a wattmeter, too? Should I get one that can handle high wattages for my future base station?

    Metal NATO water can issue

    I have a pair of the blue metal NATO water cans with the food grade plastic liner inside. They have served me well for several years now. In December we went on a trip and filled them up. We didn't use most of the water, but since we travel so much I left them full. In early January we went...

    Because kids don't remember their best day watching TV...

    The Arizona Game and Fish Department had a billboard in Tucson recently showing kids holding fish up with the title "Because kids don't remember their best day watching TV..." I think it is an awesome ad, and at the last family gathering I brought it up. Everyone agreed except the husband of...

    FS: Perma-Cool Electric Fan 13" p/n 19113, 2650 cfm, new

    This is a brand new 13" electric fan. I bought it 5 years ago for the air conditioning project on my Dormobile, but it sat on my shelf all the time. Now that I finally got the project underway, I found it does not fit for this application. It has never been used, all I did was open the box to...
