  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

    Police Scanners

    Looks like NJ is on a digital trunked system so you will want the digital radio. http://radioreference.com/modules.php?name=RR&stid=34 has some information, as well as http://cityfreq.com/nj/ Luckily we were able to keep the digital out of our local system. In MI the state police and DNR use...

    Police Scanners

    I like my Bearcat BC780XLT... holds plenty of channels and can be programmed via a PC with special software that reads the frequencies from an excel spreadsheet. If you need digital then I would recommend the Pro-96 from radioshack. The only thing digital around here is the state police and DNR...

    I think this officer ...

    I can't even imagine... I admit I couldn't sing the anthem, I can hardly memorize birthdays, but since I know this I would never be put in a situation like that.

    USB Hubs

    I've got a 5 port powered belkin hub I used to use frequently on my mac mini and it worked great. They are all the same as long as it supports USB 2.0.

    Good gun for newb

    Thats what it looked like to me Fox, thanks for confirming it. I have a friend who helps run a local gun club / shooting range and is a certified NRA instructor. He is going to get me going and let me try some of his revolvers so I can find one I like and buy a used one to learn on. Like some...

    Good gun for newb

    After doing some online research on these guns it looks like the ones I am most likely to pick between would be the Glock 17 and the Sig P228. Have the P228's been discontinued? I do not see a mention of them anywhere on Sig's website, but every mention of the 228 always points out that it is...

    MS Office 2007 beta

    That antispyware always cracked me up... they buy someone elses product, throw their name in the interface and announce this new beta product. Now they finally redesigned the interface (for the worse IMO) and labeled it Windows Defender. I guess I should give them credit for recoding the whole...

    Good gun for newb

    I've only ever fired a few guns in my life just doing target practice in the middle of nowhere into big sand piles, so I would consider myself having no experience. I want to get a gun for personal/home protection and to go practice with frequently. Chances are that I wouldn't buy many more than...

    MS Office 2007 beta

    I tried it out with Beta 1, and just got Beta 2 loaded. They did improve overall stability tons and it lauches as fast as older version again. However even when 2007 final comes out I highly doubt I will be switching from 2003. There are no more features that could be added to office so they...

    Credit Card Fraud

    This reminds me of when I bought something from Russia a few years back. The credit card company called me up (I forget which one it was) and said there was a suspicious transaction because it occured in Russia when I was just using it in the US the same day. Let them know it was me and...
