Like Astro, I have some experience with radar systems, IRST systems, and HUD displays. For 30 years, I was an Air Force pilot, and flew the F-106, F-4, and the F-16. I agree with his statements. Take a look at the video where the "UFO" is crossing the nose of the fighter at a high rate of speed...

Take a look at OE Classic.

My preference is either the SCP-DS3840TDQ or SCP-DS3840W. The first is a "T" dot and the second is just a plain dot. I prefer the "T" because it is faster for me to acquire. The price is $60 for either (cheaper on Amazon). I have never had a problem with it.

I am using a UTG red/green dot sight on my 4595. Low cost and works fine.

-60. Minot North Dakota in the early 70s. It was not an unusual occurrence back then.

This discussion is very interesting to me as I consider buying a new computer. I am currently running Windows 7, that I like very much. I can still get Windows 7 Professional on a new computer. I know that Windows 7 will no longer be updated after January 2020. So what is the difference between...

Thank you for your replies. You showed me a couple of things I was not aware of. To answer just a few of your concerns: She has a life alert. Neighbors are not really an option in her case. She wants to live alone, and does fine except for this issue. I sincerely thank you for your concerns...

I have a 95 year old, almost deaf, mother in law who, on occasion, decides she wants to sleep all day, and I mean ALL day and the next night. Otherwise, she is fine. We call her every day to check on her. When we can't get her to answer the phone, we have to make a 100 mile round trip to check...

Astro14, I really enjoy reading your aviation posts. You know what you are talking about and you speak the truth. Thanks!

The owner's manual for the 2018 Equinox with the 2.0 liter engine highly recommends premium fuel. This would increase the cost of fuel 50 cents per gallon in my area. Opinions?

I greatly appreciate all the replies to this thread. I am learning a lot. I recently spent some time with a Windows 10 computer, and I now know I can make the transition if necessary, but not just yet. I still prefer Windows 7. I am going to watch and wait for a while to see if Microsoft does...

Thanks, guys. I appreciate the help. However, I have decided to go with eM Client. It looks and works similar to Live Mail, it is free for one computer, and it is actively maintained. Works for me!

Anyone know where I could get a safe download of Windows Live Mail? Thanks!

Thanks guys. I appreciate all the replies. Reading the different results you have had, gives me several different paths I can take.

I am going to continue to use Windows 7 on my primary computers for a long time to come (I hope); but I have an older, capable, computer that I am going to do a clean install of Windows 10. I want to work with it myself and see the pros and cons of the OS. I have been doing some research to gain...
