yet another newbie radio freq question
i gathered, from the searches i did, that topics very close to this one have been covered a hundred times before, but i had a very hard time understanding the conclusions from them. (mainly because the answers i saw were confusing and just didn't seem logical to me)
here's my situation and question, specifically:
i've started scratch building a few r/c boats. in the past i had built a couple airplanes, and from back in those days, i have an old but decent transmitter. (airtronics vanguard vg6dr 6 channel FM on 72mhz)
is it possible and legal to buy and use new crystals and receivers which would work with this transmitter on the 75mhz surface bands for my boats?
while searching for answers to this question, i came upon info that suggested that it might be illegal to do this. i had a very hard time believing this, because i could think of no sound legal argument for FCC regulations being that way. what purpose would it serve, other than to please corporate lobbyists from futaba who want me to buy more radios? also, i noticed in my TX and RX that the crystals plug in and out quite easily, as if they were designed to be switched. but i guess if it is against the regs, then it is against the regs, and my bitching won't change things. i just wanted to get clarification on that point.
so am i stuck buying a couple hundred dollars in redundant radio gear for every boat i build, if i want more than just a cheap 2 channel AM radio controlling it?

Hi moses,
I think, depending on just how old your transmitter is, it may not be legal anymore. Somewhere around 12-15 years ago, "narrow band" TX/RX became mandatory.
Other than that, several people have sent their air gear in to be retuned to surface frequency. I seem to remember the $40 as a cost, but I could be wrong there. It is not simply a matter of popping in new crystals, apparently .
If you do invest in a $$ surface radio, you can switch between crystals for that frequency, ie five boats=five RXs with different crystals, swap TX crystal to run different boat.
I'm by no means an expert, but until someone else comes along and posts more specific details (CGBob is always great with tons of detail), this should be a decent starting point.
hehe: Cross post
|Apr 28, 2005, 10:16 AM
From the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (U.S. Federal law), is this section by the FCC:
"Sec. 95.645 Control accessibility.
(a) No control, switch or other type of adjustment which, when
manipulated, can result in a violation of the rules shall be accessible
from the transmitter operating panel or from exterior of the transmitter
(b) An R/C transmitter which incorporates plug-in frequency
determining modules which are changed by the user must be certificated
with the modules. Each module must contain all of the frequency
determining circuitry including the oscillator. Plug-in crystals are not considered modules and must not be accessible to the user."
The various R/C manufacturers cite this regulation in their literature. Based on the law, you CAN NOT change the crystals in the transmitter. In reality, lots of people do change the transmitter crystals quite frequently - the important thing is to stay within the band range (75 MHz, 72 MHz low, or 72 MHz high). The FCC is really too busy prosecuting (or persecuting) the various networks for "shock" TV and radio; and cracking down on false "MAYDAY" calls to chase after the R/C hobbyist.
|Apr 28, 2005, 10:22 AM
my radio was bought in the early 90s, if i remember, so it was right around that law-change time you mentioned. not sure of the exact date.
thanks for the help, guys.
and thank you, howard stern and janet jackson, for taking the heat off me!
|Apr 28, 2005, 11:29 AM
One other option is to get your Amatuer Radio (HAM) license. You can then operate any type of R/C model on 50 MHz. The down side is that most of the R/C gear on 50 MHz is 8 or more channels.
|Apr 28, 2005, 08:34 PM
The radios went to narrow banding in 1991, a radio from that era would have a gold sticker located (most of the time) on the back of the transmitter if the radio has been narrow banded.
I've got quite a few radios from the early 90's and before, and almost all of them have the gold sticker on the back, the radios that arent stickered I don't use.

I have used this mascara before and just don't get all the hype. Yes the packaging is beautiful but I think you can get the same results with a much less expensive mascara. I like Maybelline Full & Soft mascara for everyday and Benefit They're Real Mascara for big lashes.
I hate to give this product a negative review as it just doesn't make sense. Praise from every beauty publication for years, the backing of a couture fashion label, packaging that makes me want to display it on my mantle - sigh, it's not enough. The brush is nothing special. I prefer firm plastic bristles, like those in Benefit's They're Real mascara, over the old school fluffy kind as used in this product. The result is your average mascara application - a little finicky and clumpy but definitely workable. Once you wiggle out the clumps, there is no doubt this mascara gives you full, almost falsie-level lashes. The length and volume mean nothing after an hour of wear,however, when you see that half of the product has flaked off under your eyes. I even used the waterproof version and got the same infuriating results. My lashes were entirely clean and dry when I applied the mascara and I did not come in contact with any water while wearing it. I've gotten much longer wear out of Maybelline mascaras. Not worth the splurge.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This is hands down the worst mascara ever! Thank God I had a gift card when I purchased this mascara because I would have been mad if it was actually money out of my pocket. The $5 drugstore mascaras are better then this $25 name brand one. I have tried many mascaras and again this is actually the worst one!
The best mascara I've ever tested! I was immediately hooked.
After buying this a few times, I went over to cheaper brands again but was disappointed
as usual.
Very good waterproof mascara that will not smear off on eyelids as many other brands do.
The brush can be a bit difficult to handle in the beginning for those who are not used to it.
Price will not stop me from buying it again and again, but it's sad that it's so expensive.
I absolutely love this mascara! I have tried many through the years and this has to be my favourite - the brush is big, the black is dark, it doesn't smudge or flake and it adds length AND volume to my lashes. I did my makeup for Halloween one year and couldn't tell the difference between the eye I had false lashes on and the one with the Diorshow mascara...so I didn't have to wear falsies! The price is a little steep (approx $28 CDN), but well worth it. Lasts a long time and does everything a mascara should.
More reviews by JessicaMontello
This mascara is my HG. Over the years I've tried many other brands, and none of them have "wowed" me enough to switch. I buy the waterproof version and it's very dark black in color, it gives my lashes volume and lengthens them. Trusted and true love this stuff!!!!
I first got this when it first came out and was in love. It's a great mascara with a huge brush. My lashes looked false and it was very dramatic. I haven't bought it in awhile because of costs, but it is a great and trustworthy mascara, just very pricey.
Best mascara I've used. I love my eyelashes being as long and full as I can get them. People have asked me before if I'm wearing false lashes. This is my HG. My only gripe is that it can get flaky and run out quick so I feel like the price is a little high only because it runs out a little quick. This is the only mascara I've bought for years.
This is a brilliant mascara. I have had it twice before and used it on a daily basis. The packaging is nice and sleek and the brush it self works very well. It is quite a large brush which I find works well as it is easy to apply and doesn't clump. It may be harder with a bigger rounder brush to apply to eyelashes in the corner of the eye but overall the bigger brush is great and the waterproof version is one of the best waterproofs out there. Diorshow is quite expensive but definitely worth it for the quality of the product.
This is one of my favorite mascara!

Need smaller implants to correct botched augmentation 10 yrs ago
In 2000, (25 y/o) I got 850cc implants (DD). They are uneven, hurt & look very odd, I am forced to wear baggy shirts. My skin is tight & I have no fat in my breasts. I was AA before my augmentation. Is it possible to have them removed and replaced with smaller implants or even remove them all together? Since 2000, I have had 4 women in my family (2 passed away) from breast cancer and Anthem won't cover the mammogram. Very concerned, very scared and very unsure of what to do with limited funds.
I am sorry to hear you are disappointed with the results of your surgery. I would recommend you have a consultation with a Board Certified plastic surgeon in your area.
You need a thorough consultation with a BOARD CERTIFIED PLASTIC SURGEON (AMERICAN BOARD OF PLASTIC SURGERY), discuss your concerns and your options, and what to expect from each option then you can make an informed decision.
The implants can be exchanged for a smaller implants that fit your measurements and size, they can be removed all together,depending on how much your skin has lost its elasticity, the doctor will be able to tell you what shape to expect.
Unfortunately, the story you tell is exceptionally common after a breast augmentation with 850 cc implants. They are just too large and stretch the tissues badly and, frequently, asymmetrically. Fixing this is very difficult since what breast tissue you did have is now quite thin and the stretched skin will not usually contract to a smaller size. You will need a breast lift in addition to the reduction in size of the breast implants. This is hard to do with "limited funds." The nice thing is that you are in a very good position since you are having trouble getting mammograms. With your breast tissue so thin, examination is usually much easier. Make sure you examine your breasts carefully (usually in the shower using soap so your fingers slide easily over the tissue) monthly looking for small nodules or lumps. (Do not do the exam more often than monthly as it is hard to recognize change if done more often.)
Yes, you are correct. The simplest and easiest course would be to have them removed. Consider allowing your body to recover for 6 months to a year before you consider any other surgery. Best,
Gary R Culbertson, MD, FACS

To go to work in one of Tracy's restaurants is to join one of the most organized, forward-thinking, technologically advanced operations in the local industry.
Most restaurants train employees for two weeks. At Tracy's restaurants, education is constant. Every dish at every restaurant—more than 1,685 items—is digitized, with links to recipes and information for servers. There are custom-made training videos on everything from how to tourné a potato to how to enter an invoice. The emphasis on doing things precisely is one reason you'll never hear a server say, "Are you finished with that?" The gracious "May I clear the plate?" is drilled into all waiters.
Tracy finished first in his class at the Culinary Institute of America—after graduating from Georgetown—but half of his cooks have no formal training. Most staffers on the floor have either limited experience or came from systems antithetical to Tracy's.
Tracy's team has broken down his operation into 70 training courses—from cost control to "Wines of Italy"—along with comprehensive tests and rigorous study sessions for those tests. Anyone scoring more than 90 and in the top three in their class earns a $500 bonus.
"Empire" sounds like a grandiose word for a guy as unassuming as Tracy, but he says volume has always been a core component of his vision.
Until very recently, that meant the size of his restaurants and not the number. He's eager to see whether his ideas, his system, will translate to a bigger operation. Next month, he opens a Chef Geoff's in Rockville. There are plans to add another five restaurants by 2020, a number that would bring him close to that of the Clyde's Restaurant Group, which currently owns 14. The idea of becoming a recognizable local brand drives him. But for the head of a small company with no investors, it also brings moments of despair.
Expansion has already made it harder to adhere to his original vision of high-volume restaurants with the sort of details in the dining room (white tablecloths, servers in ties) and on the plate (high-quality ingredients, a globally inspired menu) associated with fine-dining places while pricing himself competitively with the likes of Applebee's.
With a single restaurant, it was possible not only to run the kitchen but also to make the rounds of the dining room, checking up on servers, offering diners the personal touch that distinguished his restaurants from the corporate chains. Friends and coworkers still laugh at stories of Tracy in the early years, watering the garden at midnight after a 15-hour day in the kitchen.
Two restaurants—he opened the downtown one in 2002—meant shuttling back and forth constantly. Three, which he undertook in 2006, nearly broke him.
The fact that number four, Tysons in 2009, went relatively smoothly does nothing to assuage his unease about number five.
Not that you'd see it under the cover of his dude-on-the-patio smile.
Tracy, 39, didn't burn to be a chef. He didn't burn to be anything at all.
He was a Boy Scout growing up in Hartford, Connecticut, three blocks from a golf course. Rebellion amounted to sneaking onto the course at night to practice putting and guzzle beer. He excelled at boarding school and had an array of interests but lacked a focused passion. At Georgetown, he majored in theology and spent his time pondering the nature of happiness, inspired to contemplation by Professor Joseph Murphy's course "The Problem of God."
Turns out Tracy could give a practical seminar on the subject of happiness.
"I'm incredibly lucky," he says. "I won't ever say that I'm not."
He married his college sweetheart, Norah O'Donnell, now chief White House correspondent for CBS News. They met his freshman year. Catching sight of her and her roommate in line one day at the cafeteria, he and a buddy from boarding school spent several minutes in anxious consultation, wondering what their "angle" was going to be.
No angle necessary. The angle was niceness.
Tracy and O'Donnell have been together more or less ever since—21 years now. It is, by all accounts, a storybook life.
They have three adorable kids and a seven-bedroom, nine-bath Colonial in DC's Wesley Heights, near American University. They bought it for $3.2 million in 2010, the same year they published Baby Love: Healthy, Easy, Delicious Meals for Your Baby and Toddler, a bestselling cookbook. If he wanted to, Tracy could walk every day through tree-canopied streets to work—his small suite of offices is upstairs from the Chef Geoff's on New Mexico Avenue.
The couple has been spotted working out at the gym together, holding hands between sit-ups. Many nights, Tracy can be found not in one of his kitchens but by O'Donnell's side at a prestigious gala or dinner party. One of Washington's A-list couples, the duo is in high demand from September to May.
Tracy confesses to frequent pinch-me sessions: "Have I gamed the system? Are you supposed to be having this much fun? And making money doing it? I've got great, healthy kids and a phenomenal wife who's exciting to me. Because of her, I get to hang out with the President of the United States, or the Vice President. And doing charitable events. And getting recognized in grocery stores. As a kid, I dreamed about being shortstop for the Red Sox, but you know? This is up there."
Many of his fellow chefs struggle with the guilt of rarely seeing their children—sometimes naming their restaurants after them to compensate—but there's none of that tortured tone in the way Tracy talks about his kids. He's not not-around; he's there. He's involved.
"I'm envious of him," O'Donnell says. "Geoff is a good manager at work, and he's also a great manager of his time—managing his daily schedule to work out every day the way he does, and work hard and run the restaurants and be with the kids."

Catherine of Valois (27 October 1401 – 3 January 1437[1]) was the Queen consort of England from 1420 until 1422. She was the daughter of Charles VI of France, wife of Henry V of England,[2] mother of Henry VI of England, and through her secret marriage with Owen Tudor, the grandmother of Henry VII of England.[3] Catherine's older sister Isabella was queen of England from 1396 until 1399, as the child bride of Richard II.
Catherine of Valois was the daughter of King Charles VI of France and his wife Isabeau of Bavaria.[4] She was born at the Hôtel Saint-Pol (a royal palace in Paris) on 27 October 1401. Early on, there had been a discussion of marrying her to the son of Henry IV, but the king died before negotiations could begin. The new king, Henry V, also proposed the match, but demanded a large dowry and acknowledgement of his right to the throne of France.
While some authors have maintained that Catherine was neglected as a child by her mother,[5] a more contemporary examination of the evidence suggests otherwise. According to the financial accounts of her mother, toys befitting for a French princess were purchased, religious texts were provided, and Catherine was sent to the convent in Poissy to receive a religious education.[6]
Henry V went to war with France, and even after the great English victory at Agincourt, plans for the marriage continued. Catherine was said to be very attractive and when Henry finally met her at Meulan, he became enamoured. In May 1420, a peace treaty was made between England and France, and Charles acknowledged Henry of England as his heir. Catherine and Henry were married at the Parish Church of St John or at Troyes Cathedral on 2 June 1420. Catherine went to England with her new husband and was crowned queen in Westminster Abbey on 23 February 1421. In June 1421, Henry returned to France to continue his military campaigns.
By this time, Catherine was several months pregnant and gave birth to Prince Henry on 6 December 1421 at Windsor. The boy and his father would never see each other. During the siege of Meaux, Henry V became sick with dysentery and died on 31 August 1422, just before his 36th birthday. Catherine was not quite 21 and was left a queen dowager. Charles VI died a couple of months after Henry V, making the young Henry VI king of England and English-occupied northern France. Catherine doted on her son during his early childhood.
Catherine was still young and marriageable, a source of concern to her brother-in-law Humphrey, Duke of Gloucester and Lord Protector. Rumours abounded that Catherine planned to marry Edmund Beaufort, Count of Mortain, her late husband's cousin. Humphrey was strongly against the match, however, and in the Parliament of 1427–8, a bill was introduced setting the rules for the remarriage of a queen dowager. The bill stated that if the queen dowager remarried without the king's consent, the husband would lose his lands and possessions, although any children of the marriage would still be members of the royal family and would not suffer punishment. Another rule stipulated that the king's permission could only be granted once he had reached his majority. At the time the bill was written, the king was only six years old.
Catherine lived in the king's household, presumably so she could care for her young son, but the arrangement also enabled the councillors to watch over the queen dowager herself. Despite all of this, Catherine entered into an amorous relationship with Welshman Owen ap Maredudd ap Tudor. Owen was probably born about 1400, and may have gone to war in the service of Henry V's steward Sir Walter Hungerford in 1421 in France. Tudor was most likely appointed keeper of Catherine's household or wardrobe. The relationship began when Catherine lived at Windsor Castle, and she became pregnant with their first child there. At some point, she stopped living in the King's household and in May 1432 Parliament granted Owen the rights of an Englishman. This was important because of Henry IV's laws limiting the rights of Welshmen.
It is unclear whether Catherine and Owen Tudor actually married. No documentation of such a marriage exists. Moreover, even if they had been married, the question exists if the marriage would have been lawful, given the Act of 1428. From the relationship of Owen Tudor and Queen Catherine descended Henry VII of England and the Tudor Dynasty. Tudor historians asserted that Owen and Catherine had been married, for their lawful marriage was a vital link in the argument for the legitimacy of the Tudor dynasty.
Owen and Catherine had at least six children, Edmund, Jasper and Owen were all born away from court. They had one daughter, Margaret who became a nun and died young.
Catherine died on 3 January 1437, shortly after childbirth, in London, and was buried in Westminster Abbey. Owen Tudor was arrested on unspecified charges shortly after her death, but later released. He lived until 1461, when he was executed by the Yorkists following the Battle of Mortimer's Cross in Herefordshire. Their sons were given earldoms by Catherine's son King Henry VI. Edmund married Margaret Beaufort, a lady of royal descent; their son became King Henry VII.
The wooden funeral effigy which was carried at her funeral still survives at Westminster Abbey and is on display in the Undercroft Museum. Her tomb originally boasted an alabaster memorial, which was deliberately destroyed during extensions to the abbey in the reign of her grandson, Henry VII. It has been suggested that Henry ordered her memorial to be removed to distance himself from his illegitimate ancestry. At this time, her coffin lid was accidentally raised, revealing her corpse, which for generations became a tourist attraction. In 1669 the diarist Samuel Pepys kissed the long-deceased queen on his birthday:
On Shrove Tuesday 1669, I to the Abbey went, and by favour did see the body of Queen Catherine of Valois, and had the upper part of the body in my hands, and I did kiss her mouth, reflecting upon it I did kiss a Queen: and this my birthday and I thirty-six years old and I did kiss a Queen.
— Samuel Pepys
Catherine's remains were not properly re-interred until the reign of Queen Victoria.
After the Queen's death, Owen and Catherine's enemies decided to proceed against Owen for violating the law of the remarriage of the queen dowager. Owen appeared before the Council, acquitting himself of all charges and was released. On his way back to Wales, he was arrested and his possessions seized. He tried to escape from Newgate jail in early 1438 and eventually ended up at Windsor Castle in July of that year.
Meanwhile, Owen and Catherine's two older sons, Edmund and Jasper, went to live with Katherine de la Pole, Abbess of Barking and sister of William de la Pole, 1st Duke of Suffolk. Sometime after 1442, the king (their half-brother) took a role in their upbringing. Owen, their father, was eventually released on £2000 bail, but was pardoned in November 1439 (and the bail cancelled in 1440). Owen was treated well afterwards and was a member of the king's household until the mid-1450s.

Well, Since You Asked…
December 9th, 2014
Writer, illustrator, and knitter Franklin Habit joins us for his monthly column featuring humor and insights into a yarncrafter's life.
In my career I have reached the stage at which total strangers not infrequently write to me to ask for advice. My mother, to whom I am and will ever be The Little Boy Who Somehow Got Tomato Soup on the Kitchen Ceiling, finds this hilarious.
"Not cooking advice, Ma," I tell her. "Knitting advice."
"I know," says my mother. "But still."
Usually the questions are straightforward:
Q. Should I put lifelines in my lace shawl?
A. Yes.
Sometimes the questions raise an eyebrow:
Q. Do you have any tips on re-sizing a woman's sweater to fit a guinea pig?
A. You may omit the waist shaping.
Sometimes the questions raise two eyebrows:
Q. Have you ever blended male chest hair into handspun alpaca?
A. Not on purpose.
Questions like these are easily answered.
But then something landed in my inbox that brought me up short:
Q. I have been knitting for almost twenty years and I have always loved it. But lately I've lost the urge. I can't remember the last time I didn't have a project on the needles, and now suddenly nothing is exciting to me. I just don't feel like knitting. I went to the yarn store twice last week and didn't even touch anything. Please help. How can I get my mojo back?

Rockies a Team to be Feared?

So far, his injuries haven't really come from his play in the field. He's going to be just as aggressive on the base paths, whether he's at 3B, SS, or catcher. At some point, a move to 3rd base will probably make sense. And, Tulo's made comments that make him appear amenable to the move (although he's said he doesn't see any reason to consider it right now - and I agree with him).
As a 3rd baseman, Tulo is still a great player. But, he's definitely "closer to the pack," when comparing him with other good 3rd basemen. At shortstop, he is truly unique - a five-tool guy who is capable of .300/30/100 every season.
And the Rockies finally have a guy that eliminates a big need at 3B, assuming that Arenado doesn't morph into Ian Steward 2.0. Despite their recent slump at the plate, their lineup is loaded, and young. Assuming Cuddyer ends up at 1B, there won't really be any holes in the batting order.
My main issue goes to immaturity. The day he ended up on the DL for slamming his bat into the ground and wound up with wood shards in his hand when the bat broke, I lost respect for him. I get it, be frustrated in that moment but don't take dumb risks that could hinder yourself. I know it's a fluke occurence what happened but it still also reeked of a kid having a tantrum. He is getting paid to be the face and leader of the franchise, yet I have never heard of him taking control of the clubhouse. I have heard the names, Helton, Giambi, Cuddyer as the leaders in recent years.
With the 3rd base theory I have, the Rockies have a few guys in the minors including Arenado who are seen as extremely high potential at shortstop. At 3rd he limits the amount of times he needs to contort and wrench his hips, legs, groin and back fielding and making the throw to first, which results in less time on the DL
I am hoping that as guys like Helton move on he matures and becomes a leader. I just think a guy with his contract and status as the face of the team, he needs to be more than a hitter and fielder.

3 considerations in the hunt for a new sofa

Commitment can be scary, and settling on a sub-par sofa may leave you literally in a slump. Amidst innumerable brands and styles from which to choose, here are three crucial considerations to anchor your search for a new couch.
A splash of personality
Researchers at Mississippi State found almost 93 percent of subjects agreed that their furniture design reflects their personality, while another 67 percent admitted to believing that other peoples' furniture reveals their character. With so much emphasis on a seemingly small decision, taking time to consider your style as well as that of your home can help ensure a deliberate, personal choice.
Multi-faceted longevity
While being mindful of the long haul may seem obvious, choosing enduring furniture helps not only your pocketbook but also the planet. The Environmental Protection Agency encourages modernizing and recycling furniture instead of investing in new pieces. Finding a sofa that can function in a variety of rooms and remain stylish over time is an important, eco-friendly consideration. Additionally, although reupholstery may be cost-prohibitive, investing in a slipcover and refinishing wood surfaces may help your sofa stand the test of time.
Household wear and tear
Beauty isn't everything, and setting sights on lush but delicate fabrics can crush consumers under the burden of upkeep. As sofas are often destined for harsh and frequent use, considering the size and constitution of potential couch's future home is an essential step in finding the perfect fit. Ages of children, proximity to pets, and - of course - proclivity to drink red wine are all elements that may edge silks and satins out of a stylish but impractical picture.
