FTV: The WCB Revisited – part 2

    First up I have to apologize for getting caught in a time warp.  The events in Part 1 of this tale took place in 2015, not 2014 as listed.  Einstein may have been right about the relativity of time, but a year is a pretty large faux pas in the fabric of time and space. […]

Where is the AUDIO?

Greetings – that has been the question of the week.  We had a tremendous lightning storm a while back and soon after our web feed audio disappeared.  After many days of checking settings and looking for a smoking gun (or chip), a couple of dangling wire ends were found under our punch board.  The other […]
