Well, I don't know much about actual speakers themselves, but I know you can get cheap Chinese boards that already have everything you need to make a BT speaker. Most of them that I've seen also come with a charging circuit for lithium batteries. For the body, I'd suggest PVC pipe. The ends would best be 3d printed. You can find models of soda cans online. Just cut off the too and bottom in whatever program and scale them to fit the tube. You could also add whatever connectors you need like power, aux in, buttons, and holes for lights. Pretty easy project that I've been thinking about myself.

yeah the body will be no trouble im just worried about how to hook up speakers themselves to work

also OP here, i dont need bluetooth or any of that jazz just an aux hookup is fine

hook up a pressure guage (mbar/small freedom increments) under the tank its easy maths to figure out level and afterwards just write the % in 10% increments on the guage

Amateur radio operator here, albeit only a foundation license and new to the hobby.

People into meteor scatter and VHF/UHF in general use yagis, I would honestly get one or make one.

Why 143mhz? What signal do you expect to hear? Go up to 144mhz and you're into the amateur 2 metre band you might be able to hear the occasional signal from MS, tropospheric ducting and maybe even auroral.

What do you want to do and listen to exactly m8.

>>1107954
GRAVES system in France (military radar or smth) is at 143MHz, I'm not looking for anything interesting just something far away powerful enough to bounce off meteors. I intend to measure ZHR (rate of meteors per hour) with such a system, i'm not into establishing a radio connection with someone. I could try 144Mhz or 50Mhz if this fails, but GRAVES is pretty powerful (750kW !) it should work fine

>>1107954
I'm wondering is dipole(an antenna with no amplification) enough to pick up such a signal, or I need to ramp up my gear and construct a Yagi antenna (I will definetly do this in the future but the Perseids shower is tomorrow and I already prepared all the gear )

smoke less weed and get a job

I'm insulted that you're appropriating my heritage in such a crude way but I respect your right to do so.
I don't like it.

Almost anything with the words "Live, Laugh, Love" on them.
You can just put together a few pieces of palette wood, write those words on it, add some picture-frame wire on the back, and charge 20 bucks.

Just sounds like your motor windings shorted out and died.. Probably was already shorted. Did you smell a horrible plastic smell?

>>1106915

it hums and there is some smoke that comes up. I thought it was the oil. smells like the stuff model train guys use for the engines that put out puffs of smoke.

If i had gotten a drop on the windings could that have cause the issue?

>>1106918
Why would a drop get on the windings? Motors that are meant to be oiled have oil pots. You shouldn't get oil anywhere near the windings. Are you saying you have been manually adding oil to standard ball bearings?

It's not practical. It would be cheaper to fill the well in and dig somewhere else.

are you the same guy that dumped degreaser down the well hoping it would clean it up? you're gonna need to dig a new one

Look up oil absorbing sheets, they're made of a material that is oleophilic but hydrophobic and soak up gasoline really well.

spot weld mig weld or tig weld it... all of the above

yes

just watch out about fucking the threads up

The pressure inside of that filter is going to be pretty strong
Its going to be pretty hard to seal back up without spraying water everywhere.

Cameras are good for nothing. Burglars wear masks and that's it for your security system. OP, what you need is a motion detecting system that emits a deafening alarm and sends a text to you. Easily and cheaply done even with arduinos.

I had a similar issue with a crate 212gfx and couldn't figure it out for a while. I figured a cap was shot. None looked bad, i didn't have anything to test them with. Long stort short, i cleaned the pots and the noise went away. The onboard effects thing was pretty much shot since i got it, and it fixed that too. Also, I used wd-40 to clean them, despite not wanting to because it attracts dirt. But i read some shit on the internet and some people swore by it, and i had already gotten a different amp so figured fuck it.

>>1105974
O and by "similar issue" i meant noise one channel, not the other. Gain setting at 0. Just got worse and worse until i stopped using it. I assume more pots were getting dirty (it's like + 20yrs old).

could have at least used the propah wd40, if you cant afford deoxit, or whatever.. ;)
i actually use some cheap crap, cant remember name, does fine tho - wd40 (ordinary) fine for emergency/temp quick fix/you want fix 1 or 2 pots, thats it - but, if its something you gaf about, may as well use a residue free specialist cleaner, otherwise, wd40 etc. will gunk it up, eventually.

You want it to be hard or just have this frame of metal?
If you want to have just the frame then I'd say go for savotta
http://finn-savotta.fi/en/kategoriat/bags/

I was going for the LJK when I was buying one as I used it in the army but I'm glad I didn't as it's too big. Even the 906 I got is usually too big for one weekend. But they are durable as shit and they have that sound of forest when there is a slight squeak ad the straps slightly move on the frame. Some people hate it, I love it!

But I bought mine 2002 and it's still going strong. Making a good backpack is hard and I bet you aren't going to find useful resources for that here as the main thing with one of these is comfort. You need outdoorspeoples to help you on that. Your backpack needs to be adjustable in the correct places to actually work. I have tweaked the fit on my during the years and also depending on the load of the backpack.

That hvac guy is a hack. Most likely a chain company that doesn't give a shit. Most Lilly the contactor arced and stuck I. The on position. So yes 500 bucks is excessive, should not be more than a 200 dollar job since it's not even an hour and a half.

Did he at least kiss you before that fucking?

>>1105792
$620 to 'fix' a 2 year old system?
first company says it has to be 'cleaned' first?
second says the same?

either you smoke like 20 packs a day or you got fucked hard.

there have to be more than 2 HVAC companies in that town. keep calling until you get one that gets to the point without a cleaning.
