    The issue I'm having pertains to the wifi. I'm on my home internet, password put in, my modem shows up when I hit INFO, but my IP says disconnected. Any ideas? FYI THIS IS MY 3RD UNIT.

    Thanks, yeah I put this in my truck and all programmed but was looking for some more detail on the features. Yes that manual does not do a good job explaining. Did you ever do a follow up on the features? I scrolled through your videos but didn’t see any. Unless you labeled it different.

    I just found this same stove at the dump for free! It was in great shape. The regulator was missing but i was able to test it with a regulator off another stove and it worked. I ordered a new regulator. Great find. Thanks again for the great video.

    Got the testers in today. Neat units. The instructions are lacking though. I had no idea how to use it. Finally had to watch the video to see the probes and where the batteries are. When I was testing water out of my refrig water dispenser, a black screen keeps coming up that says "Calibration, yes, no, Short push select short push M exit". I put it in the distilled water, works perfect, the same for water out of the tap and water out of a jar in the refrig. I recalibrated it in distilled water, same results. Always that message from the water out of the refrig spigot.

    Mine didn't come with a pouch. The instructions don't show where the probes or batteries are. Thank you for showing. Is there any reason you can't use lithium batteries?

    Optional idea for hanging Stanley Cooker over fire: With a key ring & a handle that locks the lid on, we already have the hanger rigged. Just tie a bowline knot in the end of a line, push a part of the bowline loop through the key ring, a put a small stick (toggle) into the loop. Hang the line from a tripod or pot arm, with the cooker height above the fire adjusted as you want it. Voila! Another option instead of the key ring, would be a 6” long wire loop. This gets a line more removed from the fire. Courtesy of Half Vast Flying

    So sorry to have just heard the news, I was wondering why I hadn't seen any videos in a while. RIP friend you were an inspiration to everyone and you have helped many more people than you could have even imagined, you will be greatly missed and the family is in my prayers. If anyone should need anything my email (which George had) is in my videos description on my channel.

    Please don't take my comment out of context I'm not saying you're wrong. I knew this already but Callum did a video a bit ago he's a antenna manufacturer DX Commander... On the shortwave bands RX only the higher you antenna wire is off the ground the more noise or interference you will hear do the same dipole or long wire and just lay it on the ground SW bands work in reverse of Am reception or FM or whenever your transmitting. A straight line a square loop or L shaped in the ground it works better and you will do better than having your antenna in the air...was only trying to help. No you didn't ask but I wanted to share!!!

    One of these has been my go-to for 20+ years. Quart ziplock bag of twigs makes breakfast, twice that for supper. The original paint burned off, I re-did it with ultra high temp black.

    I got this radio. It's neat with some neat features but it is not a DX machine in any manner or form and AM reception is horrible. It also only has 9 hour power only, which makes it kind of useless unless you want to keep charging it every day. EDIT: bluetooth is the culprit for the very short battery life. Turning it off increases it greatly.
