Do regular white bulbs give a good light source that do not require any camera adjustments?

What about quartz lights vs. tungsten?

Did you fiddle with the color balance settings on the camera?

When you turned off the ‘key’ light, your camera didn’t compensate, why not? What are you not telling us?

I so love Bar 41! I was a camper, wrangler, and junior counselor - just a few years ahead of you. My last year there was probably 1984. My brother Mike worked there a year or two after that. Such great memories. Mandie

Great info Bre!!! I use iMovie HD 6 and love it! I’ll have to try out your setting suggestions.
Oh and I just uploaded a new video to YouTube about supporting my fellow Etsy artists. Hope you’ll check it out.

Comment on APRS - Data Transmission Using Ham Radio by Mike

Bre –

If you tune a scanner/HT to 144.390 in your local area, do you hear anything? If you hear some crunchy modem sounds (Bell 202 modulation), you’ve got APRS infrastructure nearby. If you’re in NYC (I think you are) you definitely should be able to reach a local digipeater.

The other thing you might want to check is the PATH you used when you configured it. Some local APRS digipeaters might reject your packets if your PATH is wonky. Try

WIDE2-2

I wish I could give you more specifics on /why/ you want to use WIDE2-2, but I can’t.

You can watch me drive around on a great APRS site, — aprs.fi — here:

Good luck and 73
