I suggest to bring Mrs. Nixiefreqq a nice and cool RPN calculator as a gift
would not touch an rpn calculator even if wearing gloves and a mask.
and painting it blue would not disguise it.
Not even like this?

What if it had Nixie tubes
not really sure what is going on there.......but......NO!

The forum is messing up my attachments!!!
If they are flying in uncontrolled Class G airspace, then ATControl don't need to be aware of them and actually don't want to have to be aware of them. Awareness -> control -> responsibility -> too much workload.You might be on to something here. But in this case I have to wonder why that hyperactive product manager / sales honcho had me work several months on it, as that guy has an ATC background.
There can be many speculations, from the positive to the negatice, with cluelessness in the middle
A lot of glider and ultralight people would rather die young than implement safety devices that cost weight, money or complexity.
The lack of all these goodies has a clear consequence on the accident rate (guess why they are compulsory on larger aircraft),
so its a deliberate decision to live with a considerable risk or leave it. I'm fine with that - as long you just kill yourself, and not some
other people. The sheer number of sad glider and ultralight crash casualties per year should be enough to start you thinking, however.
Are they really much different than e.g. motorcyclists? (FX: thinks fondly back to the days of cracking 4 throttles wide open on a 1200cc bike and making the horizon turn into a point, and everything else a blur... sigh. To be young again...)
Speaking of roadtrips. I picked up my first ever auction score myself. In Malmo. 2000km in total. Was stopped by customs around midnight. My car was stripped. I was too.
Not gonna do that again any time soon.
God, I have been outbid on the eBay auction: #293644305020
Shall I bid more or look for more safer choice like Keithley DMM6500 or any 6.5 with good screen ?

Malmo sounds nice to visit once..... i think i pass for the stipdown...though
was the shipping that much that picking it up yourself 2000K was better? or you did a fun trip too?

This one
This oneYes, mine with many stars. Shall I keep bidding or snipe it ?
Newly supplied Li-ion cell @2.4V, recoverable?
I did, while ago while salvaging laptop cells, its Panasonic 2500mAh cell, using CC & CV PS, set to CC at 50mA and CV at 4.1V, once it reached 4,1V, then did re-cycle charge & discharge at my LiIon charger set at 0.5C. Managed to recover it back, though at about 75% capacity, but I guess it depends on how long its been soaked at that low voltage.
Worth a try though.

so what do you think guys? should med be allowed a clean get away with just his precious 561b? am thinking that he needs at least one hp5245. (swmbo would be happy to see one going OUT the door for a change).

... yeah, those were the days of Golden Earring: ... another radar lover gone, and the good die young.
Why are we still alive ? Was our mere lifestyle too boring sheepish and ordinary - We need to re-evaluate ourselves.

Once bid, decide what your top price is going to be and then snip it, otherwise if someone else is also after it, you risk them bidding against you and before you know it, your away in the frenzy and bidding the price up all the time. By snipping it, even if there are others after, there is always the possibility that come the auction end, they either forget to bid again, or are prevented for one reason or other from doing so, and if your maximum price has not yet been reached, you stand a good chance of winning it, without showing your hand.This oneYes, mine with many stars.

Overall repair experience with Fluke 8845/8846A series is very bad, as they are filled with BGA parts, complex firmware and nearly zero of useful troubleshooting information, leave alone schematics or ability to easy backup/restore instrument’s firmware. Together with high cost, this makes it bad competitor to more serviceable Keysight 344xx series DMMs or Keithley 20**/DMM6500 series.
Holy fuck, this FORUM SOFTWARE IS A TRASHFIRE
