Tried to join that group with a burner account. /crickets for days

Definitely want to hear more.

That is interesting.

I'd use shrink tape if I wanted it to be permanent or if it might be exposed to environment. If you want future access (ie removal) I use a top-end 3M. If it's to be accessible and around heat sources I'd go with a heat resistant like the Tesas above. But don't waste money on the cheap...

Go big or go home! *note that it works both open and closed :)

Yep IMO, the only way to be certain is to pull a sample from the sample port that can be tested to confirm if there is the slightest question. It's not expensive (like $10).

Dunno. It's a barrier island off the coast from the King ranch. You don't hit many towers down there unless they are inland along I77 corridor. It's not a populated area. Data drops out on my phone just about right at the "4x4 Vehicles Only Beyond This Point" sign (about five miles past where...

A couple things of note about that video (unrelated to Starlink): 1) It's the Gulf of Mexico, not "the ocean" ;p 2) It's almost always windy here (especially during the day) with very few exceptions (especially in the Spring/Fall). Late Summer is the calmest 3) In several of the edited shots...

Here's a review of the Starlink RV (not the In Motion) actually done down PINS (Padre Island National Seashore). Keep in mind he's not really further than the typical tourist ventures (he still has cel service, about another 5 miles and he wouldn't). There's some 60 miles (each way) of...

Oh trust me, I'm not dropping $2K on it. The $600 version is even a bit more than I can justify but it's not as bad as alternatives for sat internet. Starlink antennas are actually flat panels, not a traditional dish. With the portables, you set them up on their little tripod and they buzz...

Boosting no signal is still no signal. It not a weak signal out on the inland once you head south, it's no signal. No towers to boost. I do keep a handheld HAM programmed to the ranger's repeater just for emergencies, but that's about the only contact down there.

I'm personally not interested in "in motion". I'm only into it for the Internet connection (gotta pay the bills by uploading that porn). I also like that Starlink can be subscribed to for only the months you are traveling and shut off when not.

I have been considering mounting the standard Starlink RV portable unit into a box and have it on actuators to lift out of an enclosure. I canned the idea as a waste of space and just more moving parts to break.

New piece of hardware from Starlink. "The Flat High Performance Starlink is now available for in-motion use with the Starlink RV service plan." The price jumps to $2600 (vs $600 for the portable unit). Personally, I have zero interest in "in motion" use but this is the first unit that can be...

My take is: Required below 40F -27F would be when nothing mattered any more, you and the truck are dead at that point.... ;p

Yeah, easier for me to just not drive the truck on the two days a year we get below 40 degrees here. ;p

I think I paid $100 ea for the two lights. I'll be making the panel, but I haven't decided on the type of light switches I'll be using in the cab. You really only need a couple on/off toggles and a couple joysticks. Little analog sticks are like $5.

LOL, yeah I have "camper project build stuff" in: Living room Dining room (floor to ceiling) M1082 trailer (filled up to the roof) As well as every square inch of the garage I've been working on the house the past month and between family coming down I've made zero progress with the build.

I have a pair of IBIS TEK remotes. I plan on making a small "cage" for each and incorporating them into the roof rack. And like you, I'll have switches and a couple small joysticks in the center console to control them (mine will be on a master panel with a number of other features, thoough)...
