Whitfield is O.K. he just has a short fuse. You try contracting as long as he has. Learned something today. Local contractor is using temp labor force, just call and 20 Mexicans appear for 11.25 hr, pay company in 20 days!Now this spells doom for the man who wants to start at bottem and learn,contactor loves it because he doesnt have to cover them.I"m not prejudice these guys work and work hard you see from where they"re from .50 cents an hour is big money. Yea ole Nafta raises its head again,times are a changin, the old days are gone and I wonder about the poles I climbed for 4.25 an hour?Was it worth it to learn rough trade?What about my broke wrist that never healed right? Or how about crushed foot? When will I get paid?Cable is deffinantly starting to s__k! Just my .02 later dawgs....

satellitepatrol you have to tighten the bug nuts before and after the tap with low signal, if this doesn't bring the signal up de-re with a UG lasher or coat the LE with napalm and light, the best way I have found to solve this problem that I can see is loosing you sleep is to take the port cap off this low signal tap, stick your finger threw the hole and hold it firmly on the sezure screw and then with the other hand reach up and grab on firmly to a bare secondary, this will solve YOUR problem.

Good Morning all,Thanks for your e-mails on Vegas,hopefully I'll get time to write you back today.MIB#3 I'm still the same.I still have the ability to go from 0 to WFO instantly.Don't even need a fuse.I only wish some of you had to endure the BS I have encountered here,then you might feel differently.I guarentee you one thing,If we were working a bad getto,you would be glad to have this old dog out there with you.
I wonder if the weather is strange where your are at.I don't ever remember it being this rainy in July,if I recall correctly it was real similar the year Hugo hit South Carolina.I was reading up on hurricanes in the weather channels imformation section.It states we are headed into a new cycle and it does not paint a pretty picture.I hate the destruction they bring but I like the money they pay for storm damage.I like how hurricanes bring neighbor hoods together.People that never associate with each other suddenly find themselves united,helping one another.I enjoy seeing the children running down the streets hollaring its the cable man ,they sure are happy to see you when there cable has been off for a while.Its time for the Old dog to head out to the shop.Soon it will be to the warehouse.I can't hardly wait.I hope everybody has a great day and makes Big $$$$$$$$$ See Ya
