• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    KB0XR-licensed first in 1959. I have a hand held in the trunk. Too busy avoiding traffic to talk on it. If I had something external on the Spyder, it would be stolen the minute I was out of sight of it.

    Tires and Cold Concrete Floors

    I'm goimg to say no on both starts and move arounds, or plywood. I have never done either one for many many years with no ill effects. That said, I'm sure someone on this forum will disagree with me and say otherwise.

    A sad day...put Spyder into winter storage - ugh....

    Just got the rear air bag and associated plumbing replaced on my 2012 RT. Out of factory warranty but covered under BEST extended warranty. Co-pay of $50. Good deal, I think. :clap: Can't even buy a decent supper for 2 for $50 here.
