From beyond the grave

Since I have today at home, and the errands for the day are done, I have returned to the task of encoding my old cassette tapes. I just did one I recorded in Virginia literally 30 years ago of my father's childhood Edison Cylinder player. I was worried the cassette tape would not have held up after all this time, but it was a quality tape and it sounds as good as ever.

As did the voices of my father talking to his mother I heard in the background while I was changing cylinders. Both have been dead over a quarter of a century.

I still need to get software to separate out the individual recordings.

Tyvec car covers

I got one for martes car. She's driving mine today so I coud get the stereo installed in hers. When I got in the car around 1PM it was actually cooler inside the house that it was inside the HOUSE.

Only minor irritation is that we have to remove the antenna every time we put it on. The kit comes with a grommet to fit around the antenna so you don't have to do that, but that would involve bending the antenna over every time and also risking ripping the cover itself, which was not cheap. Easier to just unscrew the antenna and throw it in the trunk.

Incidentally the sterio in the car sounds better than ever, and I can tune stations in San Diego with it now.
