I do not support the idea of a blanket requirement. The existing RSTC form is useful to me in this way: I answer yes to prescription meds and I am 75 years old so that requires a clinician's sign off. I had to have the form in the recent past to take GUE fundamentals, and the signed form was...

Thanks for the info. I edited my post to more closely represent the conversion challenge when I tried it.

Excel provides the capability to save the .xlsx in .ods format. But the .ods conversion from .xlsx in Excel requires removing the password on any password protected workbooks/worksheets, which means a similar issue that caused @rsingler to remove the .xls version exists if it is converted to...

I was in St. Eustatius ('Statia') in the Caribbean Netherlands last week; these Gorgonian soft corals were in great shape, along with the sneaky trumpet fish.

I'm only on Teric #3 Craig, but somehow I think "perfect" might be slightly too high a threshold for my expectations.

Reef photo has this: It's expensive. I bought it after I lost cheaper mounts twice.

Also voids the warranty. Unlike you, I'm new to Scooters but relatively familiar with Github and compiling open source software. But I've decided to make the Dive Xtras mods you made in the factory Dive Xtras firmware, and pass on 'cruise control' at least until my warranty expires! I'm too...

It is complicated, but yes, 'reverse' and 'cruise control' aren't available in the Dive Xtras factory firmware. If you start at the Github landing page that @stuartv linked you can easily get the impression that the open source software there will work on an older Blacktip but won't work on...

My experience with GUE and High Springs has been limited to Fundies split into two parts with a pandemic in between. Having said that: 1. Taking Fundamentals from a competent instructor (in my case Meredith Tanguay who was training Max Frenkel at the time; Wet Rocks Diving) went a long way...

It's a tough call. I was on a liveaboard from Hurghada this year in March, well before the current situation developed. One of the things I noticed, and I've seen other people use this as a reason for asserting it is safe there: members of our group who went on various tours in Egypt by hired...

Hi Jim, I haven't tried it yet, but just so I know, the cable you had to try three times is the connecting cable from inside the drown itself to your laptop?

I was with a group diving wrecks in the Pensacola area last weekend; water temps in the high 60s; most people did fine in 5mm and 7mm wetsuits. The challenge in the panhandle, which is also a challenge everywhere in Florida this time of year, is that high winds and seas will frequently preclude...

I can highly recommend wetrocksdiving; Meredith Tanguay and Max Frenkel. I recall that links are disabled for various security reasons but if you google it you'll find information about their classes in the High Springs and other areas.

I had been diving for over 50 years when I took fundies; had been an OWSI Instructor for 45+ and was TDI AN/DP at the time. I'm not a cave diver; my tech diving is ocean/wrecks/backmounted doubles. I ended up taking fundies in two parts, about two years apart, with a pandemic in between...

Tried to send a DM, but got a server error. I'll keep trying. Do you have a Mk10 that's converted to DIN (can't tell from the pics in the back); interested in that and a 109; shipping to Orlando. Getting a server error trying to post this too

I was pre-conditioned. The week before I was off-the-grid at God's Pocket in BC on a combination diving and kayaking adventure. Was still marveling about humpback whales and sea-lion views from the kayak and Browning Wall underwater that I didn't even try to log in to SB until mid-week.....

Ten days ago I did the 10:00 boat from PVD (M/V Aurelia). Having read about the thermocline, I was (miserably overdressed) in a 5mm wetsuit with hood. The first dive on Juno ledge, according to my Teric, splashed at 92 and ended at 87. The second dive on the WPB Corridor splashed at 88 and...
