    Bluetooth for Windows 10 PC

    Nightjar, speaking as a retired computer technician, probably 80% of my work was removing virus/malware from customers computers. More often than not the infection came from websites offering free drivers or software. For those that are NOT computer savvy such websites & add banners are best...

    Mild Ground Around Vic. Suggestions Please?

    Hi Nuggy, I got your email but I'll reply here. In regards to manual/ auto tune. I don't believe one is better than the other. I tend to auto tune but will sometimes manually change up or down 1 or 2 clicks as it can sometimes get you a quieter result. I also don't pay much attention to any...

    Mild Ground Around Vic. Suggestions Please?

    Hi Nuggy, don't be worried by hot ground, we all have to learn to deal with it as its just part of the learning process. I have a 5000 but have used a 4500 too. With a 4500 the factory pre-sets find gold, even in hot ground. Use baby steps with setting changes until you start to understand...

    Palmer River.

    Ouch! I can't afford to pay fee's like that. It looks like $1000 is just the start & with my luck the wet will start in November.

    Sharpening Chainsaws

    Hullo 20x, looking at the photo you posted I see some very basic mistakes that most people make when new to chainsaw sharpening. The file in your jig is sitting to low in the tooth so instead of sharpening the tooth you are undercutting it, also the chain clamp on the jig is to low. When you...

    Hullo

    Hullo everyone, I'm Garry from Mid North Coast NSW, I'm into detecting with a 5000. I usually go down to the Vic GT for a few months each year but have been stuck at home for the last year due to Covid & a grandson that is now in my care. Can't wait to get out bush again but no idea when that...
