Our electrical woes are not quite over. The new wires sure seemed to make a difference, but we were getting voltage sags many times per day on one of our three phases ever since the wire got connected. So, yesterday I set up a multi-meter and an oscilloscope on the phase in question and I [...]

It’s been a week since the last blog post. There has been so much going on that I’ve been wanting to get on here to update you, but there’s been so much going on that I haven’t had the time or energy to do so. It’s been an unusually stressful week, but not without accomplishment. [...]

We have a bit of a multimedia extravaganza this week. I’ll start off with a short video that shows a little more about my adventure in Utila last week. Pictures are fun, but so are movies. It’s in hi definition so don’t be afraid to click that little full screen button in the bottom right [...]

That’s one of many spellings of one of my favorite non-English phrases. It’s a Scandinavian catch-all term for anything overwhelming. It can be a good thing or a bad thing and the speaker’s tone makes it obvious which it is. In this instance, it’s an expression of exhaustion after being thwarted in many attempts at [...]

I’ll get to that later. Peter and Sandi are back from their vacation, so things are a little closer to normal here. They never will really be normal because there is no such thing. That’s what keeps life interesting here. We get little surprises all the time. In fact, I just got asked yesterday to [...]

I think that “Beauty and the Beast” might be a good description of this place where we live. And both characters are one here. I’ve been back from Utila since last Sunday (the 27th) and wanting to tell you all about it, but there have just been too many things going on around here. So [...]

Last week was quite a week. I left with Ken Anderson and Carl Hompsted on Friday, March 18 to go to Utila and finish replacing the guy cables on our AM tower over there. We just got back Sunday morning (yesterday). It was a very successful time over on Utila. I’ll have to tell you [...]

I think that phrase best describes this week. As I type, Mildred is getting ready to go to La Ceiba in the morning with Sandi. Mildred needs a couple of medical tests done and Sandi has graciously agreed to go with her to help with translation. I will stay here and get ready to go [...]

Ever since we went on the air at our new transmitter site, the guard has been asking for some light there. But one thing after another has conspired to keep me from getting that done. But I’ve been planning it and working now and then on preliminary sub-assemblies. This week, I finally got the first [...]

Way back many years ago, when I was a teenager, I saw a dog do one of the funniest things I’d ever seen. I was riding down the street on my bicycle and a full sized poodle came charging and barking at me at full speed – at least until the leash went, “twang!” It [...]

Where have I been?! Busy, I guess. I don’t know when I’ve gone so long without posting something here. It seems like, at the end of the day, I just haven’t had the energy. But I feel pretty spunky today after getting about 10 hours of solid sleep last night. Why was I so tired [...]

I finished gathering the parts and tools yesterday for tomorrow’s trip to the neighboring island of Utila. I have e-mailed O’Neil and Thelma at the Utila Lighthouse and they have a room ready for me. They did ask that this time I try to not bring as much rain with me as back in October. [...]
