My father probably could Hammy, but good luck getting relevant info outta him................

your Pappy plays with multifunction calibrators??? respeck..
 
Hey Lovelies!!!
 
anyone ever hear that Paul McCartney died back in 66??
 

 
That's the British equivalent of the "Elvis working in a Walmart in Tennessee" thing in the US.

I don't know man... I have seen some quite compelling footage, and has come to the conclusion that the real Paul died back in 66..
 
George hated Faul, and if you see interviews with George post break up he never calls "Paul" by his name, it's always Faul..
 
 
He blew his mind out in a car...

Hey Lovelies!!!
 
I was playing with a Keithley current source today. It was failing 100uA, 10uA, 1uA, and 100 nano-amp ranges respectively.
 
There is a discrete pot for each range and I adjusted all failing ranges as per the service manual. What the service manual does not state is that the over voltage compliance pot affects the ranges too.
 
After aboot two hours of trying to adjust this into spec using the range pots, i decided to hit the over voltage pot and valhalla, we are within spec..
 
Have aboot 15 minutes of paperwork tomorrow to wrap that baby up..

Ah..... potentiometers....... capacitors.......  semi-conductor diodes and transistors.......... microprocessor architecture..........

it was more of the same today.. It urks me when the adjust proc does not adjust a uut into spec..
 
I mean what would you think if the adjust proc doesn't work? you'd think catastrophic failure right? That's what I thought. Power supply checked out fine, near as I could tell using my scope the a/d converter circuitry looked ok. Digital five and 15 volts had no ac ripple.. It was that over voltage compliance pot..

Ah, the "pot" aka potentiometer.............with most moving parts makes sense it might fail. 

Happy Friday Lovelies!  I thought this past week would never end.

Hey Lovelies!!!
 
Gots to run to the LFS to get me a new bulb for the sex farm.. Light would not turn on this fine morn.. I may get a fish whilst I am there, or I might not.. Details to follow..
 
 
Also I has to work on my hot water heater.. noticed a difference in water pressure this morn.. Clogged mineral screen i bet..

hey lovelies!

went out and got a great deal off of somebody from my local reef forum today. 4 pieces of decent sized corals for $40!!

I wouldn't necessarily think catastrophic failure, in all honesty. I would probably do the procedure, comparing expected and observed responses at each step, to see where the procedure was failing. That would inform my action steps. But you have clearly done similar.

hey lovelies!!

the cycle on my nuvo 16 is done!! I tested today and ammonia and nitrites were both at 0, and nitrates were up around 30-40. so a nice 50-75% water change is probably in order, and then the first inhabitant can probably go in!

Please post pics of the tank when you add fish, etc.

Hey Lovelies!!!
 
 
my female guppy got caught in the java moss in my 37 gallon.. came home to find her stuck and barely alive..
 
had to make a command decision..

 

[Ruskull]

Did you save her or cull?

hey lovelies

about to adventure on a treacherous journey. starting, tonight I guess, at midnight I will be shutting down my cell phone. it will be turned on once per day for no longer than 10 minutes only to check messages and make sure nothing urgent has come in. I can not reply to anybody or use any apps beside messages (can't open any messages unless from someone important needing a reply), and email (easier to check all 5 accounts at once.) I will be doing this for the next 5 days. wish me luck!
