Back in action here and I am oh so happy again. Seems back when the antenna pole blew over that was holding the wireless radio receiver (I think that’s what it is called), the guys that repaired everything spliced into the existing wire coming around the eaves and into the house. It got wet at the splice with the recent rains and shorted out. It didn’t harm the receiver which meant the tech guy didn’t have to climb the tower or lower the pole to replace the receiver. There are huge trees across the road from our home and in the direct path of our precious signal and the reason our receiver is stuck up in the air so far. They tell me now they have better receivers and if we ever have to replace this one, they can try mounting it on the rooftop instead of high in the sky. Anywho, anyway, anyhow…. I once again hope I never, ever, ever have to deal with dialup for more than a day at a time. It drives me nuttier than I already am!
