    Stylus Wear

    I just found the ATN150SA. The site I was looking at has it for $210 on sale so $175 is appealing. I was debating a while ago going with a MC cart (HANA EL) or similar. Its definitely more wallet friendly. What should I expect to hear going to the shibata? Just more detail in the music? Im not...

    Stylus Wear

    That's cheaper than I was finding. Just wondering if I should upgrade the stylus or get a new cartridge. I can go with an AT440mlb stylus. Microline vs Elliptical Decisions

    Stylus Wear

    I have on some, and not on others. That's why I am trying to figure out of its the stylus or the records. The ellipse is supposed to be 0.3mil x 0.7mil. (0.00762mm X 0.0178 mm) That ellipse seems about right, or am I misunderstanding how they are cut?

    Stylus Wear

    I ended up using some 91% iso to clean it up a good bit. I can still see the ellipse at the end of the diamond. This is the best picture that I could get with this cheap microscope.

    Stylus Wear

    I tries the magic eraser and that's the result. Need to order a brush and see if I can get it cleaner.

    Stylus Wear

    Wow its been a little bit since I posted on here. Since all this pandemic stuff has been going on I have been going through my record collection organizing, listening, sorting etc. There have been times where semblance was an issue and I wasn't sure if it was a cartridge issue or a record...

    What are you drinking now?

    A $10 Single Malt. It was on sale for $15 with a $5 rebate. Speyburn Bradan Orach (no age statement) Really is not bad at all, esp for the price. Beats the hell out of the Cleveland Bourbon that I had previously.

    What are you drinking now?

    A friend of mine picked this up for me as a curiosity. The age the bourbon in something like 6 months to make it taste like one that has been eighteen years. Not even close. This stuff is horrid beyond all imagination. Even my wife who puts up with my telling her to try stuff said rubbing...

    What are you drinking now?

    I am slowly working my way through the regions of Scotland. So far I have Speyside, Islay and the Highlands. Still need the Islands, Campbelltown and the Lowlands. The Dalmore bottle is really neat looking as well.

    Favorite Bourbon

    My favorite so far was the first top shelf bourbon that I purchased. I am new to all this so there might be others out there but from the ones I have tried this is it. Bowman Brothers from A. Smith Bowman here in VA

    What are you drinking now?

    This was actually the other night, wouldn't mind getting more. A little harsh compared to some of the other bourbons but wasn't bad.

    What are you drinking now?

    I am still new to the whole whiskey (whisky) world (incl. scotch and bourbon). I can taste similarities to the bourbons I have had but cant compare since I have not had many. I guess I need to pick up another bottle of rye to compare directly with this.

    What are you drinking now?

    I got to open the bottle my wife picked out for me. Jefferson 10 Year Single Barrel Rye This is my first rye and I like it.

    What are you drinking now?

    The wife got this while she was picking out another bottle of whisky for me. Since it's local and cheap she figured it would be funny for me to have it. Its not the best I have had but its not bad. Spicy and is bourbon flavored. I won't buy a large bottle but ill finish my glass.

    Boundary Waters conoing

    Clean dry socks. The portages are usually soggy and you feet will get wet from getting in and out of the canoes. Best feeling in the world when you get to camp, putting on clean dry socks. Red Devil Spoons, never used anything else while I was up there and caught everything.

    Question for the Roadies

    I am a somewhat active member there and searched about the rusting but never posted about it. I will do that tonight and see if anybody has suggestions. Will go ahead and take pictures etc. If I do decide to keep the frame I want to get it painted pretty much exactly as it is. I wanted a...
