Drag Queen is also free. I suppose it's a matter of preference, and that newer software may be an improvement over something as old as Drag Queen (which is probably 4 or 5 years old), but it is the app I rely on. I particularly like the ability to set a radius from your anchor at which the

The veneer is definitely teak. The colour you have to match to will depend on how your original teak has aged. If someone has applied teak oil every year since new, the wood will be really dark. I have avoided teak oil, and it seems the previous owners did much the same, and our teak is quite

Thanks, I agree. None of the 0183 wires are connected to anything, so there is no way it is getting a signal on that protocol. I chalked it up to a default setting of some sort, but it may also indicate a problem with the radio. Jim Sent from Mail for Windows 10 From: Joel Aronson via

Jim — is the backbone properly terminated after your addition? There needs to be a terminator at either end of the backbone, after the final “T” for equipment spurs. Hopefully the “network” line you cut into is the backbone cable, not a spur. In this instance, you’d have been far better to
