00:05 rue_shop4 shoudl I?
00:08 katsmeow-afk it's 100Mhz
00:10 katsmeow-afk and it's only 2 channel, showing the triggers is nice, but that doesn't make those a channel
00:11 katsmeow-afk if you need a portable, go for it, assuming it's calibrated
00:11 katsmeow-afk ge the cal / owner manual
00:11 katsmeow-afk get the cal / owner manual
00:12 katsmeow-afk i have it's operations manual
00:12 katsmeow-afk built in dmm and phase measurements
00:13 katsmeow-afk and freq
00:13 katsmeow-afk ac voltage is good only to 10Mhz
00:13 katsmeow-afk 50hz - 10Mhz
00:14 katsmeow-afk it's 100v/120v/220v/240v powered
00:14 katsmeow-afk i cold just post the manual for you to read
00:15 katsmeow-afk there's not a better cheaper of that V1100 model on ebay
00:16 katsmeow-afk hello?
00:16 tsmeow-afk deletes the operatons manual for that s
00:20 katsmeow-afk this is like no one wanting Tiggr, so i deleted megabytes of source code
00:34 rue_shop4 ok, its assembled, I wonder if it works
00:34 rue_shop4 its a digital storage isn't it?
00:35 katsmeow-afk and i thought the damned scope was important to you
00:35 rue_shop4 I was soldering wires
00:35 rue_shop4 is it not a digital storage?
00:36 katsmeow-afk i thought the damned scope was important to you, i was looking up infor for you, and you weren't even here to get the einfo
00:36 rue_shop4 I was 4 feet away, soldering,
00:36 rue_shop4 its been up for quite a while
00:37 rue_shop4 :/ its not is it?
00:37 katsmeow-afk NOT WHAT ?!?
00:38 rue_shop4 a digital storage scope
00:38 katsmeow-afk no, it is not
00:38 katsmeow-afk fuck
00:38 rue_shop4 a fellow threw me the ref when I mentioned I was building one
00:38 rue_shop4 you ok?
00:38 katsmeow-afk i thought the damned scope was important to you, i was looking up infor for you, and you weren't even here to get the einfo
00:38 rue_shop4 I'll just carry on with the tek modules you helped me get and keep working to build one then
00:39 katsmeow-afk i was being ignored even as i did you a favor
00:39 rue_shop4 kat, I was away for a few mins soldering, you usually take longer than that to get back yourself
00:39 rue_shop4 :/
00:39 katsmeow-afk I THOUGHT IT WAS IMPORTANT, it IS a GOOD DEAL
00:39 rue_shop4 it was normal priority, sorry
00:39 katsmeow-afk never mind, #$%&$*$%^!@$&^%*#$&*#%^
00:39 rue_shop4 its been a good deal for a while
00:40 rue_shop4 it was up for $300 last month
00:40 rue_shop4 its been slowly dropping
00:40 rue_shop4 my 25Mhz was $700
00:40 katsmeow-afk damn
00:40 rue_shop4 but I dont need more scopes!
00:40 rue_shop4 I have two tube heathkits, a transistor heathkit
00:40 katsmeow-afk my 65Mhz hitachi was like $20
00:40 rue_shop4 and my usefull scope
00:41 katsmeow-afk i have mainframe units from free to $200
00:41 rue_shop4 remember the 7A18 module I have?
00:41 katsmeow-afk i have desktop mainframes for free to $120
00:41 katsmeow-afk yeas
00:41 rue_shop4 do they make something like a 2 module enclosure I could use with it?
00:41 rue_shop4 casue its for my digital scope (building)
00:42 rue_shop4 you helped me get schematics, I need to make a fancy power supply for it (inc. 80V)
00:42 rue_shop4 the idea is to take that into a ~1msps 8 bit ADC and funnel it down to a serial interface on a gui
00:43 katsmeow-afk no, Tek made 3 and 4 module enclosers, the low freq units could be split off from the display unit (the crt)
00:43 rue_shop4 I need a capture scope for tuning servos
00:43 rue_shop4 hmm
00:43 rue_shop4 do you know the number for a 3 module encosure?
00:43 katsmeow-afk yes
00:44 rue_shop4 request(tek: 3 module encosure: capmpatible with 7A18 module)
00:44 katsmeow-afk but the ones MADE TO SPLIT OFF aren't for the high freq plugins, even the 7A18
00:44 e_shop4 stares intesly at the pr
00:44 katsmeow-afk 7603
00:44 rue_shop4 ah, will the connector take the 7A18 module, or are there keys that will dissallow?
00:45 rue_shop4 oh, its got a screen?
00:45 katsmeow-afk in the 6703, the 7a18 is made for it
00:45 rue_shop4 well that would give me a power supply
00:45 katsmeow-afk the 7a18 will NOT work in the 5110 , which you can remove the plugin bay from by design
00:45 rue_shop4 http://www.ebay.com/itm/Tektronix-7603-7A18-7B53AN-Oscilloscope-Mainframe-with-Plug-Ins-/301761662314?hash=item4642658d6a
00:45 rue_shop4 no canada shipping
00:46 rue_shop4 wait, do you have one you would sell?
00:46 katsmeow-afk yea, but shipping wol dbe more than $40
00:46 rue_shop4 yea
00:46 rue_shop4 how much does it weigh?
00:46 rue_shop4 approx?
00:46 katsmeow-afk 50lbs
00:46 rue_shop4 20lbs? 50lbs?
00:46 rue_shop4 ugh
00:46 e_shop4 hits head on
00:47 katsmeow-afk the 6703 is a BIG unit for a desktop, it's nearly 2ft front-to-back
00:47 rue_shop4 I can tell from the module I have for it
00:47 rue_shop4 :)
00:47 katsmeow-afk it's 100Mhz and can accept a dozen diff plugins
00:48 rue_shop4 limit :3
00:48 rue_shop4 :)
00:48 katsmeow-afk that $39 one comes with the normal time base for the 6703 too
00:48 rue_shop4 ok I'm still on plan A then
00:48 katsmeow-afk it's in the usa, i don't see how you get free s&h
00:48 rue_shop4 dosn't help me if they wont ship to canada
00:48 rue_shop4 and 50lbs would cost over $100 for sure
00:49 rue_shop4 and I could only trust you to package it properly
00:52 rue_shop4 well, I think the driver board is done
00:53 rue_shop4 I'm going to ahve to do a lot more work before I can test
00:53 katsmeow-afk Tektronix 7603 Programmable 2-Channel Digitizer Oscilloscope
00:53 katsmeow-afk $109.31
00:53 katsmeow-afk or Best Offer
00:53 katsmeow-afk +$65.06 shipping
00:53 rue_shop4 hey, ships worldwide
00:55 katsmeow-afk http://www.ebay.com/itm/Tektronix-5103N-D11-Single-Beam-Storage-3-Slot-Oscilloscope-w-2x-5A18N-5B10N-/181899830772 <<== but it will not work with the 7A18 , it's a dead slow 2Mhz afaik
00:55 rue_shop4 condition:
00:55 rue_shop4 For parts or not working
00:55 rue_shop4 on that first one
00:55 rue_shop4 :/
00:55 rue_shop4 $141 and it cant calc shipping costs
00:56 katsmeow-afk they pretty much haveto say it's for parts or not working, because of crappy usa shipping , even if it's advertised as working and calibrated
00:56 rue_shop4 hah
00:57 katsmeow-afk http://www.ebay.com/itm/Tektronix-5103N-Oscilloscope-Working-Free-Shipping-/131620672037 <<== this one is NOT working
00:57 rue_shop4 I dont need a high sample rate, shoudl I just build one?
00:57 rue_shop4 Shipping:
00:57 rue_shop4 $73.19 UPS Standard To Canada | See details
00:57 katsmeow-afk build whatever rate you want, display it on a 19" puter monitor
00:57 rue_shop4 but it now...
00:58 e_shop4 looks for the c
00:58 rue_shop4 I have a 5A18 module
00:58 rue_shop4 and a few other 5A modules
00:59 katsmeow-afk hell, i tried for days to get you to pay shipping to get a free 5000 series mainframe
00:59 rue_shop4 the 5100 scopes are real cheap are they?
01:00 rue_shop4 yea, sometimes the closest to where you want to end is the worst place to start
01:00 katsmeow-afk ff just crashed
01:02 rue_shop4 did you have 40-50 tabs open again?
01:03 rue_shop4 :)
01:03 katsmeow-afk if all you need is the analog front end, to feed a digitizer, and you already have a working scope to set up your diy unit, i'd just built the diy unit, all you need is a psu , digital sampler chip, some ram, and read/dsiplay it
01:03 rue_shop4 yea
01:03 rue_shop4 I have some small fifo chips
01:04 katsmeow-afk you could make your whole system the same size as the 7a18 and set it beside it in a box
01:04 rue_shop4 yea
01:04 rue_shop4 how many 7 seg masks you want?
01:04 rue_shop4 with or without dp?
01:05 katsmeow-afk what is the mask?
01:05 rue_shop4 the cut block of foam
01:05 rue_shop4 or you meant fully assembled with leds?
01:06 rue_shop4 cause I did some terrible things to put the leds on those
01:07 katsmeow-afk wait,, why can't i cut them outs foam with a hot wire and two outines of the segments?
01:08 katsmeow-afk wait, why cut anything, if i make positives, i can use can-o-sprayfoam
01:09 katsmeow-afk lemme guess, you left the channel again
01:10 rue_shop4 yea, I made a 7 conductor jumpter to hook a semgnet to the drive
01:10 rue_shop4 r
01:10 rue_shop4 I have to make 3 more
01:14 tsmeow-afk ponders welding up some ~1" wide positives, wrapping them in black paper, setting them in position, spray foaming them, and lifting out the steel posit
01:15 katsmeow-afk that's alot of work to make so many positives
01:15 rue_shop4 well I have the 3d printer here too, it works while people sleep
01:16 tsmeow-afk
01:17 katsmeow-afk heh: make one steel positive, make a cement negative, use that to make foam positives
01:17 rue_shop4 :)
01:18 katsmeow-afk use those to make complete multi-digit foam 7-segs
01:18 katsmeow-afk or
01:18 katsmeow-afk use those to make complete multi-digit cement 7-seg negatives
01:18 katsmeow-afk wrap in black paper, spray foam, peel off in 4 hrs or so
01:21 rue_shop4 :)
01:21 rue_shop4 well I can make more if desired
01:26 katsmeow-afk yo made them so well, they look great, the scale is perfect
01:26 katsmeow-afk how much are you charging for them?
01:27 rue_shop4 free for you
01:27 katsmeow-afk why not print them as just the walls of the segments?
01:27 rue_shop4 ?
01:27 rue_shop4 they are flimsy, the outter thickness helps support them
01:27 katsmeow-afk you don't need the huge block of foam in the spaces inside the 8
01:27 rue_shop4 oh, more trouble to cut it out
01:28 katsmeow-afk if you mead them on the 3D printer, you can simply not print that
01:28 rue_shop4 my first try was with glued cardboard, came out all caterwumpas
01:28 katsmeow-afk print what you need to contain the light in the segment
01:28 rue_shop4 yup
01:29 rue_shop4 at 18cm I shoudl *just* be able to it it on the printer
01:29 katsmeow-afk outline each segment, with some bracing to keep them straight
01:29 katsmeow-afk and in position
01:29 rue_shop4 yup
01:30 katsmeow-afk i dunno about time and cost, i have no 3D printer
01:30 katsmeow-afk i'm sure mine would be pink and in the tipper
01:31 rue_shop4 oh, I think you solved a problem I didn't start yet
01:31 rue_shop4 the colon
01:31 rue_shop4 I could just print it
01:31 katsmeow-afk why? because i have a 10lb spool of red weedwhacker line i cannot use because mowing th elawn makes dogs bark and i would goto jail so i'd use it in the 3D printer and be laughed at
01:32 katsmeow-afk heat some 3/4 emt red hot and dip it into the foam
01:33 katsmeow-afk yaknow you can get ribbons of leds already wired for 12vdc, cut them 3 to a strip and lay them in the bottom of the segment
01:33 rue_shop4 most weedeater line has too much fiber in it to print with it
01:35 rue_shop4 the cat took over my chair
01:36 rue_shop4 19 years.....
01:37 rue_shop4 dear god, that makes the lawn mowing robot ancient
01:37 rue_shop4 its frame was scavanged from an even older robot
01:37 rue_shop4 goes back to '88 or so
01:41 rue_shop4 I wonder if my printer can stack up this high ok
01:41 katsmeow-afk who cares? make 2 at 1/2 heigth
01:42 katsmeow-afk start one before bed, start the next before leaving for work in the morning
01:42 katsmeow-afk when you get home, stack them
01:42 katsmeow-afk same as if you has made one full heigth
01:52 rue_shop4 its printing now
01:52 rue_shop4 I can design things really fast
01:53 katsmeow-afk wow
01:53 rue_shop4 (the colon)
01:53 katsmeow-afk oh
01:53 katsmeow-afk it's two round tubes
01:53 rue_shop4 I have the mask cad' somewhere tho, I used a cad program to work out the co-ords for the cnc
01:54 rue_shop4 yea, I just draw it in 2d and have that extruded in a 3d program, export that to a slicer and then send to machine
01:54 katsmeow-afk i think i'd have just used some pvc pipe
01:54 tsmeow-afk looks at
01:54 rue_shop4 oh, hah 22mm, I suspect that was my origional idea
01:54 rue_shop4 oh well, its printing now
01:55 rue_shop4 its taken 19 years so far, a little more time isn't gonna kill it
01:55 tsmeow-afk
01:55 rue_shop4 once upon a time my alarm clock wouldn't shut up, so I broke it, its guts are still in the project box for the clock brains
01:56 rue_shop4 which are now replaced for an arduino board
01:56 rue_shop4 long ago, I worked out to make foam masks, but the bulbs would melt it, and there was light leakage thru the foam
01:57 rue_shop4 about 17 years later I realized ma was painting foam with 'stain' so I got some in black
01:57 katsmeow-afk "wait, the psychedelic moving light box is a clock , the 7-seg is where there is no funky light?"
01:57 rue_shop4 a year later, I was able to buy white leds from china
01:57 rue_shop4 :)
01:58 katsmeow-afk i have a clock display on this monitor, i can make full screen
01:58 rue_shop4 :)
01:59 rue_shop4 when I switched my alarm clock over to pc software, I realized I missed having a clock in the corner to just "look" at
02:00 katsmeow-afk one big enough to see clearly from anywhere in the room, even a room 48ft long and 25ft wide
02:21 katsmeow-afk gnites
18:46 rue_bed TOP UP FISHTANK

21:12 katsmeow-afk ok
21:13 katsmeow-afk running a lil short on plutonium?
21:44 rue_shop4 ok I dotn think the heating system rad is leaking anymore
21:44 rue_shop4 must have just been a loose clamp
21:45 rue_shop4 (that I tightened)
21:45 rue_shop4 wait for it to all heat up and check it
21:45 rue_shop4 magnet board
21:46 katsmeow-afk magnet board?
21:47 rue_shop4 yup
21:47 rue_shop4 fro sticking magnets too
21:48 katsmeow-afk they won't stick to zhanx

21:57 katsmeow-afk [21:23] <rue_shop4> fro sticking magnets too
21:57 katsmeow-afk . 9:24:14pm 10/12/15 zhanx joined .
21:58 zhanx i got titanium in me so wont stick
21:58 zhanx thats kat and tom
21:59 zhanx fixing a library for my esp8266's so i can define stuff vs always have a default address of 192.168.4.1
22:00 katsmeow-afk good stuff
22:02 zhanx mesh network :)
22:03 katsmeow-afk what's the range?
22:03 zhanx 200 meters so fat
22:03 zhanx far
22:03 katsmeow-afk hmm
22:03 zhanx only 2 nodes of 9
22:04 katsmeow-afk how many nodes can there be?
22:04 zhanx but i got 2 satellite dishes (directtv ones). 254
22:04 katsmeow-afk or, how many elemts in the mesh?
22:04 zhanx unless i change the code
22:04 zhanx unit8_t
22:04 zhanx err uint8_t
22:05 zhanx but 254 seems to work
22:05 katsmeow-afk will they fit down the neck of a 2-liter coke bottle?
22:05 zhanx let me check
22:05 zhanx a soda bottle yes, minus battery pack
22:06 katsmeow-afk hmmmmmm how much do you charge for them?
22:06 zhanx esp8266's i get them from aliexpress for 2.50 or so each
22:06 katsmeow-afk and can you make them alk to a windose laptop?
22:06 zhanx serial yes
22:06 zhanx or wifi to websever
22:06 katsmeow-afk wireless
22:06 zhanx server
22:07 katsmeow-afk i might want some once i am afloat, but i may also want , eventually, more than 256
22:07 zhanx or i use telnet
22:09 zhanx well 256 is a theory number
22:10 zhanx i *should* never have 256 nodes talking to one node at the same time
22:11 katsmeow-afk well, not, not 256 to 1 , but more than 256 spread out talking to each other and finally back to me
22:13 katsmeow-afk i wanna know if a boat is approaching me at night
22:13 zhanx totally do able i think
22:13 katsmeow-afk if it's too small for radar that's aimed elsewhere, and is a plastic boat
22:14 katsmeow-afk i can detect abnormal wave strikes against a floating 2-liter, as well as prop noise
22:15 tsmeow-afk yanks stainless steel outa her ts
22:17 katsmeow-afk detect, maybe turn on some lights, wake me
22:18 rue_house zhanx, your library or an internet library
22:18 rue_house z, what are you meshing over so far?
22:18 zhanx internet that is ok
22:19 zhanx my yard
22:27 rue_house yea, damnit, there is almost a leak in the rad for sure
22:27 zhanx put pepper in it
22:27 rue_house and I dropped a freaking food can into the duct
22:27 zhanx it will flavor the food
22:27 rue_house the can is empty
22:28 rue_house but I cant get to it
22:28 rue_house ARG
22:28 zhanx magnet
22:28 katsmeow-afk magnet
22:28 katsmeow-afk heh
22:28 rue_house its steel duct work
22:28 katsmeow-afk you have a ductbot
22:28 zhanx put it in a roll for toilet paper
22:28 rue_house itys a long story I cant get to it without taking all the ductwork apart
22:29 zhanx ok my internets suck
22:29 zhanx can i use a directtv dish to relay a signa;
22:29 zhanx for wifi
22:30 katsmeow-afk that means ou aren't tracking the satelite
22:30 zhanx no
22:31 zhanx its a exactly 6952.26 meters from start to finish for my relay
22:32 katsmeow-afk that's pretty far
22:33 zhanx little over 4 miles or 6.9k
22:33 zhanx solar panels to power the relays
22:33 zhanx i only need a slow baud rate so i am fine with lag
22:34 zhanx ok found an article using a directtv dish getting 8 miles of the range
22:35 zhanx line of sight 125 miles
22:35 rue_shop4 <rue_house> check rad for leaks
22:35 rue_shop4 <rue_house> pnaumatc power pack for mecha
22:35 rue_shop4 <rue_house> magnet board
22:35 zhanx which i dont believe
22:35 rue_shop4 yes the rad leaks,
22:35 rue_shop4 the magnet board is finished
22:35 zhanx rad you can solder it
22:35 katsmeow-afk zhanx , url ?
22:36 rue_shop4 apparently it is copper
22:36 zhanx copper is awesome to solder
22:36 rue_shop4 but
22:36 rue_shop4 i have a few new rads to install to distribute the pressure drops better
22:36 rue_shop4 maybe its time to go forward on that
22:37 zhanx www.engadget.com/2005/11/15/how-to-build-a-wifi-biquad-dish-antenna (read it wrong they use big old dishes for the 125 miles)
22:41 zhanx gonna test it tomorrow
22:41 zhanx i am 1 mile from the local school and one dish is mounted and pointed at it mostly
22:41 zhanx it has free wifi
22:44 rue_shop4 :/ the boiler tubes need to be cleaned
22:45 rue_shop4 I suppose its been enough hours that I cant complain much
22:45 zhanx use dish soap :)
22:45 rue_shop4 I have a special plunger
22:45 rue_shop4 scrapes them clean
22:45 zhanx darn i was hoping for bubble madness
22:46 rue_shop4 I'v put about 36 hrs into the digital clock I started in '96
22:46 rue_shop4 its getting close

23:59 rue_shop4 I need to denerigly detect gestures
23:59 zhanx and a knock to turn on the light
23:59 rue_shop4 vocal gestures 'words'
