I’ve been thinking of trying safflower in the big feeder (Blue Jays aren’t fond of it apparently) and sunflower in another smaller feeder for the jays. Bloody pigs they are. 🤣

Blue jays and squirrels clean me out all the time. I nipped the squirrels in the bud, but the blue jays have it figured out.

Touch lamps in their bedrooms started going on and off by them selves. The neighbour called and asked if I was doing something. When I asked why, they explained, and thought it was hilarious and I shouldn’t stop (I did.). This is why there are no touch lamps here. 😂

I could do that here, but when I was first licensed I had privs on 160, 80, and 10m. So there I was in townhouse compound pounding cw with a DX-60. Turns out, the neighbours kids had been watching a soap opera and one of the characters had been possessed by the devil. They 💩 their pants when the

There’s a guy on YouTube that deliberately buys stuff like that (mostly offshore though) to take it apart and examine it. Big Clive it’s called. A very nice gent from Scotland, living in the Isle of Man. I’ve learned loads from him. And the price difference alone would make me go a dbl take too.

Good on you for checking. Most people don’t bother. Any time I need things like that, I go to the store because you never know what you’re getting. Sad though that the long river company doesn’t make a point of making sure their products are type accepted
