Sorry to hear about the warden, will keep yall in our prayers.

The S1 S2 and S3 you see are for the opener switches and the crystal on the borad is for the transmitter section.

Its a garage door opener the chip on the prefbord reduces the voltage to a level uadable for the opener youcan tell where they soldered rhe leads to the batyery contacts

I have Dish network (I know you asked about Direct TV) and they have good customer service and I think it is easier to use but I think they treat new customers better than old.

Nice to see you getting a little recognition for doing good things. By the way how was the spaghetti?

Wonder if they would take 2 99s with 50K each in on trade?

Here is a link to historical data you can look at that may help make up your mind. http://www.sercc.com/climateinfo/historical/historical_nc.html http://www.fodors.com/world/north-america/usa/north-carolina/the-north-carolina-mountains/feature_30002.html

I would worry more about snow and ice more than rain in November. Are you doing all of the Parkway or just parts, If you like wine and old mills there is Mabry Mill and Chateau Morriste (not sure if I spelled either right) in Meadows of Dan, you could also jump off the parkway above Roanoke and visit the D-D Memorial. There is Biltmore House in Ashville and a few falls along the route.

I am about 85% sure I am camping out next weekend the 12th to the 145th at Hungry Mother State Park in Marion Va at the foot of the "Back of the Dragon" (RT 16) should be some good riding, I hear the tropical storm that is coming up will probally take most of the leaves away next this weekend and early next week.

Since the Bike went to WV does that mean Maint Day is at Yammer's now?

Sounds like a great Idea, would not mind doing something like that a lttle further south.

Is it better to buy ones you have to fill instead of the prefilled ones straight off the shelf?

That's a new one on me too. I have not filled a battery in probally 20 years.

Praying for the best

There is an App for that.

Turns out the bikes were in NY for something called Holloywood Stuntz they see who can do the most outrageous things on the highway and post them is what I got out of it. http://www.youtube.com/user/Hollywoodstuntz http://www.foxnews.com/us/2013/10/01/new-york-man-celebrating-first-anniversary-with-wife-child-left-for-dead-after/

This was the most complete article I saw (same as the first one), alot of the sport bike forums are really blasting the SUV driver. http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/pack-motorcyclists-chase-man-suv-attack-upper-manhattan-street-fender-bender-west-side-highway-article-1.1471585

Be good to see you on the road again.

Mouser Electronics or Digi-Key have the connectors.

Happened to us and it turned out to be the cable under the passenger seat had come unplugged.

In addition to what GeorgeS said. Check to see what your charging voltage is it should be above 13 volts then check the connection at the regulator make sure there are no burnt or damaged pins. If none of these items take care of it we can go from there with more in depth troubleshooting.

The power socket is not live with the ignition off so unless you modified it the battery should not be getting any charge, all it is doing is charging up the capacitive components to a point where it is strong enough to power up the radio.

Looks like the one at Jacksonville Zoo.
