These are terrific - thanks for sharing them! :cool: I fixed a few for you. After you attach a photo, click on it and choose the option to insert the full image in the post.

Personally, I'm sold on the idea that what we call chiggers are just young ticks. But I stumbled across this trying to identify another bug recently.... From page 294:

More road testing. Here's a 3d view of the hundred foot hill on my iPad (connected to the boydsmapserver running on the Oukitel Android phone). Google maps is on the built-in screen, via CarPlay from my iPhone. The 24k topo map looks nice on the larger screen, you can see everything in your...

I just use the permethrin as per directions, heeding the cautions. I do the spraying outside and wear disposable gloves, then let the clothes dry in the sun. I was unable to find any permethrin in stores this season, went to Dick's Sporting Goods twice and no luck. WalMart used to carry it but...

Shutting down now, phone ran for 14 hours full-on, battery level is 35% now.

Just now turning over 12 hours with the phone on, GPS active and screen at full brightness. There was a period of, maybe 1/2 hour where the screen went to sleep, but otherwise it was full-on bright. After all that time, this thing still shows 41% battery! :cool:

I knew that my VW had built-in wifi but thought that was just for a hotspot option you have to buy. Turns out, the wifi is active in the car anyway, even though there isn't an internet connection. My iPhone already knew the password (from the VW app?), so I entered it on the Oukitel and was able...

Right now I have the new Apache webserver running on the Oukitel and the app is open with the GPS on. My iPad, iPhone and Mac also have encrpyted connections to the Oukitel and are independently using the app (the Mac and iPad are in desktop mode). The GPS works on all of them. That's four...

Or a beaver gets his tail?

When you go to boydsmaps.com, your browser (Safari, Edge, Chrome) downloads my app, which then runs on your device (computer or phone). You also download a library of commands called MapTalks that is a toolkit for displaying and interacting with maps. It takes very few lines of code to display a...

Phones have GPS chips, just like Garmin devices. The internet has never been used to determine position in my app, it always came from the GPS.

This gets very geeky, but there might be a couple others here who would appreciate it (@Ben Ruset , @stiltzkin ?). I installed the termux package on the Oukitel phone a few days ago and... wow, very cool. :cool: Has taken awhile to figure everything out, but the phone is now essentially a little...

Precipitation totals for the past 7 days. Interesting to see the changed pattern, I'm in one of the heavier areas now (1 to 1.5 inches) and there's a "donut hole" in Burlington county where some places got less than 1/10 inch.

Another test without cellular on the Oukitel (maps on a 256gb SD Card). Ran with GPS tracking for two hours using the 3d version of the 2007 aerials (3d view uses twice as much data, making the phone work harder and consume more energy). Battery capacity was 98% at start, dropped to 79% at the...

The really heavy part was well North of my home but the rest of it came through here. I had been up to my eyeballs in computer code all day, waiting for things to cool down before taking my evening walk, so I was surprised to see that storm of the radar when I posted earlier. Went right out the...

Looks like the heavy part is headed to Mullica Twp right now.... Severe Weather Statement National Weather Service Mount Holly NJ 609 PM EDT Sat Jul 29 2023 Atlantic NJ-Cumberland NJ-Salem NJ-Camden NJ-Gloucester NJ- 609 PM EDT Sat Jul 29 2023 ...A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WARNING REMAINS IN...

Did another test this morning using the Oukitel phone which has a big 8000 milli-amp-hour battery (the Ulefone only has a 4000 mAh battery). Ran the app continuously for 4 hours with a GPS lock and the screen at full brightness. It was 98% charged when I started and still had a 53% charge after...

I now have two working versions. Here it is on an Oukitel WP5 rugged Android phone with the maps on a 64gb SD card The other version is on my uleFone Armor x7 Pro (previously shown) with the maps on a 256gb SD card. It holds all my maps of the pines with room to spare. The 64gb card is more...
