Recently I wrote about the Elenco AM/FM radio kit and was pulled away from the build before I could do a full alignment of the radio. The kit was finished but my work took me out of town, and I wasn’t able to do a full and complete alignment of the kit per the builders manual. I should add that I am employed full-time as an electronics engineer and have been involved in electronics repair, design, and building for over 50 years. And as an amateur radio hobbiest, my experience goes further back than that timeline. My “shop” is equipped…

Magnified, fixed-power riflescopes have not been particularly popular in decades; certainly since the dawn of the 21st century. Once the only choice due to technological limitations, variable-magnification scopes have long dominated the market for all pursuits, apart from 1X (zero magnification) dot sights and the occasional low magnification reflex sight like some models of Trijicon ACOG. But, what if while embracing variable magnification, we forgot about speed? After all, turning the ring at the back of the scope takes time and some amount of dexterity to maintain a hold on target while moving part of the scope. Enter the Integrix…

Hunters debate the validity of baiting black bears (or any game for that matter) all the time. Baiting often raises questions of sportsmanship or fair chase, but it might not be as black and white of an issue as hunters sometimes make it. I’ve only hunted over bait a few times—for deer and pigs in Texas—and I wasn’t a fan. While I had my own opinions about baiting bears, I thought it might be different from deer and pigs. So, I gave it a try.Up until now, my bear hunting experience was limited to spot-and-stalk hunting in the mountains of…

Buckle up, this is a weird one. Cue the banjos in the distance.On Feb. 21, a motorist called 911 to report they had witnessed a man having sex with a dead deer on the side of Phillip Stone Way in Central City.
