Is that some kind of differential pressure gauge?

Looks almost like SMA connectors and semi rigid but no microwave equipment
would ever hook up to a meter like that.

That prairie masker stuff was/is classified.

I use to have a 3"38 rolling around the office.

I would take you up on your offer but you would have to accept a much
larger, useless piece of microwave equipment in return.

When you get right down to it, aren't all gauges differential?
I asked my students what they thought would happen if I dropped a compound
gauge into a vacuum chamber and dropped the pressure to 500 microns. Most of
them guessed wrong, and were surprised that the gauge read zero before,
during, and after the vacuum was achieved.

Doug,
is your rear mast support a permanent fixture?
(is "permanent fixture" redundant? lol)

Cool shot of dog and deer. Is there a story there? The deer doesn't look too

We had similar happenings when we were using the radio fence in Chopper.
The deer get used to the fact that the dog will or can only go so fae,
and since most communities now have strict orinances about loose dogs,
deer are losing their inate fear of them.

The dog was not barking, he was prancing around trying to
get the deer to play with him. The deer probably realized
there was no threat and was wondering what we could offer
for dessert after he eats all our ivy.

We have dozens of deer that wander thru the neighborhood.
The corridor between our fence & the neighbor's is like a
highway every evening.

The dog is a riot. He had a turtle for a pet last summer. A
box turtle got in our back fence and the dog carried him
around like a toy, then would put him down & wait for him to
peek out of his shell. I put the turtle far back in the
woods but he came back. Then when the dog got tired of him,
he apparently wandered away on his own.

My favorite local wildlife is a pair of very large owls.

Doug King

It's not just some kind, it's an NBS standard (or was, a
long time ago). That's what the yellow tag is.

Oops. Sorry. Good thing no Russian navy guys read this
newsgroup, eh?

Hmm... we could probably work out a swap, but I have to keep
enough working room in the garage for my next boat project.
As stuff accumulates, the boats have gotten smaller- first a
19' Lightning, then a Johnson 18, now a 9 footer.

If I open the back door and there's deer there, they usually

beat feet.

ALL measurements of any kind are "differential" as they measure to some kind
of reference.

Differential usually refers to the active or dynamic measurement inputs, the
input being 2 and both can change. Some gauges/measurements have their own
reference built and are called "single ended". The reference is this case is
fixed whether it be pressure, voltage, length etc.

Actually, you'd be surprised at what some animals will do. My brother
had a small farm with some chickens and sheep, 3 dogs, and five cats.
One dog named "Big", a big playful ball of fur who looked like a mix of
black lab and something really hairy would run out into the yard and
play with the deer. They would chase him around the yard for awhile, and
then he would chase them for awhile. When they got tired, they would lay
down together. But Big hated sheep.
One of his cats (whose name I forgot) would go hang out with wild
turkeys he found in the woods. Once in awhile as long as the dogs were
in the house he would lead them down into the yard like a gaggle of
geese and he was their mother. That same cat would kill squirrels and
leave them on the deck.

one or two bites out of each pepper and then move on down the row to the

Go to a gardening shop and get a spray bottle of stuff that has wolf
anal gland scent in it and spray it around the perimeter of the garden
and down your mulch rows...don't get it on you, though...stuff is tres
nastee...I was amazed at how well it kept the rodents out of my
garden...didn't work on the chickens, though...they must have a
different method of detecting enemies than the sense of smell because it
didn't seem to bother them..they'd peck the tomatoes..finally just
strung some chicken wire around that area to keep them out since they
left everything else alone...

I've never had a problem with them before, but I can't leave em alone now.
They done thousands in damage already, including 3 car wiring systems
($1,350 damage on a 2 year old Grand Prix).
They are in my house, running past us in the living room, gym, etc., having
parties in the attic.
They taunt me and throw nut shells at me from above - they have to go!
