Thanks! It was fun to pick out tile and decide which way to lay it out. Not so fun to actually cut and lay the tile, lol.

If your TV does a lot of built-in processing, you may need a fidget with settings to get it to look better. You're not going to have some magically beautiful picture of the first time you plug it in, especially if your TV does a lot of picture processing and does things like eliminate flicker.

That might be a behaviour of your specific modchip. Other chips might be different. Really, I just want to bypass the RF modulator. I'm not looking for a magical RGB pixel perfect image of a square chasing a rhombus. ;D

Mine isn't a specific mod chip. It's a transistor and two resistors bypassing the RF modulator.

LOL!

Yes, all the brass is going away this summer.. That comes to around 15 door knobs total, so it won't be cheap..

My insurance estimate for the last big storm came in at around 15 grand, and it covers some of the stuff I was already planning this summer, so I think the next few months are going to be even busier than I thought.. I need to do 30 square of roof, replace some fascia, all the rain gutters and downspouts, garage door, all upstairs windows, add 2 full egress windows to downstairs, replace and paint some siding (so I will probably repaint the whole house and use this as an opportunity to change up the colors), rebuild and stain 100 feet of cedar 6 ft fence, and then redo the 3 bedrooms, lol.

This was more or less the plans for the next 3 years (except the roof that is practically brand new), so my reno plans are greatly accelerated, and I am not sure it's a good thing. It's nice that some will be covered by insurance, but damn this one is going to hurt the pocketbook... Thank God I'm not married or I wouldn't have money for this sort of thing..
