    Telephone etiquette

    Try a few different formats when you're reverse searching for a phone number: (xxx) xxx-xxxx xxx-xxx-xxxx xxxxxxxxxx "(xxx) xxx-xxxx" "xxx-xxx-xxxx" "xxxxxxxxxx" I also try searching in both Google and DuckDuckGo search engines since the results are often radically different.

    Telephone etiquette

    Man, the younger generations can't fathom the concept of my office phone being a landline and being unable to send texts to it. Blows their minds.

    Telephone etiquette

    After reading this thread, I had a realization. I'm old. :ROFLMAO: I leave slow, clear and concise messages. I also keep my phone voicemail box full so nobody will bother me. Works like a charm.

    Wheel spacers on a bx23s with 60" mower deck

    I'm running 2" spacers on my BX25D with the 60" mower deck (standard, not drive-over) with no issues. It's not easy getting the deck on/off on flat ground with the spacers, so I usually just lift it up a few inches with the loader or a jack at the back for extra room. It's a heck of a lot more...

    Running hydraulics for a backhoe on a BX2370 tractor

    I've always wondered why the BH instructions said to remove the mower deck from the belly on the BX. Being that it's connected to the 3pt, that makes more sense now. I see pictures all the time with mower decks and BHs installed.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Had 20 yards of screened top soil delivered to take care of some low spots and erosion around the property. I miss the L2501 for moving more dirt in one scoop, but the BX was a lot more useful getting into the tight and sloped areas. Overall, the job was quicker using the BX than it would've...

    What’s your rain count?

    Somehow our land has been in a rain void here in NC. 1/4 mile in any direction has had decent rain while we have had zero for many weeks now. We were in Exceptional Drought classification, but have been upgraded two notches to Severe Drought, despite no rain. The garden's looking rough, the...

    That's what I assumed as well and reassembled that way. Thanks!

    RCK60B-23BX Tensioner Pulley

    I had the zerk/grease nipple, shim and cover come off my center tensioner pulley and am trying to figure out the reassembly order. Parts diagrams show the order being the zerk (140), a shim washer (150), then the cover (100). However, my original assembly had the shim washer UNDER the...

    Daily Chuckle

    Well that's just confusing. I mention it's T o'clock to my coworkers, but how are they supposed to know if I'm just peeved or getting ready to go all Milton on the place? :ROFLMAO:

    BX25D Seat Replacement - Seat Switches

    If I recall, one was the occupancy sensor to tell when you got out of the seat and the other was to tell the tractor if you were forward facing or rearward facing. Don't trust my memory though, more knowledgeable people will be along shortly...

    All you smart AI guys, hams or anybody else

    Now you understand the big push for data centers!

    WiFi signal booster ?

    Either way, using the RV park's WiFi is NOT secure, so definitely go with something like Starlink or wait until AST Spacemobile has more satellites up.

    Security Camera Battle

    It's called ethernet over power (EoP), but I don't have any working knowledge of it. I remember there were issues using different electrical panels with it, but I don't know if that was a grounding issue or what.

    Security Camera Battle

    That's why I was asking his distance. 100' or 500' makes a big difference. I'm using a wifi camera system with a hub as well, but the advertised range is 3000' (straight-line), and about 1500' with terrain/trees. It just doesn't work without a smart phone, but like yours, if set up with a...
