    Verizon and Cuddelink

    I have 10 family viewing pictures daily. Two weeks ago, the Verizon users stopped getting text messages. Everyone else, no change. Anyone else experiencing this?

    Cuddelink L series Q & A

    I have an active plan. Who do I call to switch the cameras? Do I use Rayovac or alkaline with solar panel? All remotes are 8.3 (38 years in the computer industry, always upgrade to the latest firmware!) When the L arrives, does it need a firmware upgrade?

    Cuddelink L series Q & A

    First, a big thanks to John V who provides patient, expert help for all of us! I am 2 weeks from deer season and my Home camera is shot. I ordered a new L Home to replace a K-5789. The Fed Ex truck should arrive any minute, then I am headed North to get it installed. I also ordered a Sun/Shade...

    Cuddelink L series Q & A

    John, need some assistance. I have 4 J-1422 and 5 J-1415‘s connecting to a home K-5789 Verizon. I went on vacation, pictures stopped, just brought the K-5728 and the batteries were a mess. Acid everywhere and liquid all over inside the camera. I think it is shot. What do I replace the K-5728...

    Fixing holes on trails

    Thanks for all the comments. I fixed two major trails last weekend, sometime the solution is right in front of your nose! I had just not thought of creating a source for fill closer to where the problems were, sped up the whole process. I am not trying to build a road or driveway, just dont want...

    Fixing holes on trails

    We have owned 132 acres for 5 years, a tractor for two years. I have finally caught up on a long list of work including a trail system around and through the entire property. Most of the property was pasture and what I have found is that the trails are very bumpy. There are a lot of rocks and...

    Grapple Suggestions

    Two years ago I bought a brand new JD 4044M. The dealer sold me a Westendorf Brushcrusher 4200. It was undersized for my tractor and ended up getting bent (along with my tractor). Fortunately I had followed good advice from all of you and had used a local dealer who was awesome…took it back...

    Screen a gravel road

    Bill, thank you, I will investigate. If I could duplicate that I would be delighted. Our property sits in the center of Minnesota, so it needs to be hardy.

    Screen a gravel road

    One of my most productive hunting spots is a field with soybean or corn situated on a gravel road, the opposite side adjoins hundreds of acres of forest. I would like to screen it so that the deer use it even more. The county mows and sprays the ditch. I can’t plant trees because the power line...

    Bowhunting Failure

    Thanks everyone for participating, good insights and very helpful. I have scheduled time after the rifle hunting season with a very experienced bow hunter to walk through what happened on site, then talk about shot placement. Based on all the comments, I am convinced that I am the problem, not...

    Bowhunting Failure

    First of all, thank you! Great analysis. All of these pictures are from the second deer. I have pictures from the first as well that I will post. I definitely have a lot more to learn about trailing, I learned just from your examples. Thanks again 35-acre! First deer pictures attached, this is...
