Rare Scrapnana Posted October 26, 2014 #127 Share Posted October 26, 2014 (edited) You're right. We usually hear more noise from the condo (sometimes more than we need to hear:eek:). No ideas why. Edited October 26, 2014 by Scrapnana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Scrapnana Posted October 26, 2014 #128 Share Posted October 26, 2014 I'm not sure as a solo cruiser I would want to be on a ship as big as Allure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkacruiser Posted October 26, 2014 #129 Share Posted October 26, 2014 I just upgrade my system but it does seem slower now, guess that is because of all the ads, hadn't thought about it. Freedom tooted 3 times. I'm wondering, we don't seem to hear the horns as well as last year. Lou does not seem to be switching over to the other microphone, cutting out the harbor chatter. Anyone else notice, any thoughts? I have been watching the sailaways all Summer and have not noticed any difference in the audio. Personally, I enjoy hearing the marine radio chatter, only wish the voices would sometimes be more clear than they sometimes are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the2ofus Posted October 26, 2014 #132 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Darn! I missed Eurodam! Remember that yesterday I delayed mowing because I wanted to watch Westerdam? Well, that's where I was at 4:00 p.m.. Looks nice out there now, all mowed and mulched. I chop up all those precious leaves and use them to protect my perennials. At least I get to watch Allure.

I have one laptop that is Windows 7. Another laptop and a desk computer that are Windows 8. I don't have any problems getting the web cams on any of the machines.

PathfinderEss Posted October 26, 2014 #134 Share Posted October 26, 2014 I have been watching the sailaways all Summer and have not noticed any difference in the audio. Personally, I enjoy hearing the marine radio chatter, only wish the voices would sometimes be more clear than they sometimes are. Oh trust me I like the chatter too, but what they used to do is when the ships got close to the Condo's they switched to another microphone just to hear that, without the Harbor chatter, and then when the ships passed they went back to the Harbor chatter, that's what I'm saying. The tooting now just seems to be very subdued compared to what it was last spring. I've posted my question to Lou and Dave on facebook. I'll see what answer I get. See, I could barely hear the toots of the Allure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the2ofus Posted October 26, 2014 #135 Share Posted October 26, 2014 I'm on 8.1 and have no problems with the website or with switching back and forth from FL to PE to CC sailaway thread, keeping them all open at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know about 8.1, except my computer expert said its about 30% faster then 7.1. I'm now intrigued, it is loaded on a thumb drive and he tells me he can teach me to use it in 10 min's.

I have no problems keeping them all open and switching between them either. It just seems slower to me then when I was running XP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare rafinmd Posted October 26, 2014 #141 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Eurodam.... great toots therapy. Thank you so much. Feeling much better now. :D REALLY missed it. wifi on the train today was totally useless! I'm not sure as a solo cruiser I would want to be on a ship as big as Allure. I'll be deciding that for myself a year from now. Roy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
