    Cable TV and Costs?

    If you have smart tv, you don't need any cable TV. Just use your Internet WIFI (which hopefully you have). Connect it to WIFI and you will be in business. If it is not smart TV, get either FireStick from Amazon or Roku (also from Amazon). If you have Amazon Prime, that include service for the...

    Low speed steel rim center failure / separation (how / why?)

    Well, you don't have to be in Tucson. In Canada, like where OP, it is probably 50+ years of extreme cold. This happened in the street of Tucson which I assume in AZ according to the OP. Or may be Tucson, mexico ??? Be thankful it last that many years. Most of us don't.

    Has Amazon (silently?) changed return refund policy?

    This seems to be their most difficult return case. It is your words against theirs. Not blaming you for it but it is unfortunate that it happened. One time, I had a wrong item delivered to me with same day. I called right away but I ended up to be a long call because apparently, I have to...

    Quality replacement refrigerator?

    Avoid Samsung or LG. I heard that they are not easy to fix if broken. Of course, I don't have first hand experience on them just reading and other's opinion. When my 27 years Whirlpool broke down, I bought another Whirlpool. I chose the one without door water and ice dispenser, just simple...

    Burying an ethernet cable across the yard, how do I do it?

    If you insist on doing it. Here where I live, I probably hired people who fixes sprinkler because they can dig a trench very fast even manually with shovel. You can probably find those people and pay them reasonably to do it for you in your area. Hire the worker ask them to come when they are...

    AC troubleshooting: check my thinking please

    When I owned 95 suburban, the Low Pressure switch connected to the dryer is the weak point. Most of the time when AC is acting, that switch was bad. Unless, the compressor is bad. It can be replaced without evacuating the system. Worth checking out if it is still the same as in 98 model year. I...

    Burying an ethernet cable across the yard, how do I do it?

    I know the topic is burying ethernet cable. The purpose is for PoE camera. Why don't you use Wireless camera instead. They are relatively cheap now and easy to install and monitor.

    How to get a better seal on AC line mating surface?

    I read a tip a long time ago. Use Nylog on the o-ring. Nylog is the lubricant for AC o-ring. I used Nylog a long time ago when I replaced the Compressor and Condenser coil on a Sienna. I had it for 3 more years and it was good without any leaks. I am just a amateur DIY, not a pro.

    Any need for more than one surge protector if one is installed on the main panel?

    I have used that type of SPD in the OP's post on the main breaker in my house. It seems to work great. I figure, nothing to loose. So far, I have had a few surges but it has not taken anything big like AC or Fridge. Something is better than nothing.

    HDMI cable tester

    That is probably the best solution instead of testing the hdmi. As said above, for that length, you may need the directional cable which essentially powered.

    Roofing Problem

    Sounds like the roofer that replaced the whole roof in 2018 was not doing it properly. That should be where the warranty comes from. However, I am not sure if the PO have transfer that or the roof mfg and roofer have that stipulation in their contract in 2018.

    Keep your eye on Xfinity/Comcast internet

    I have just internet with Spectrum here in the suburb of Dallas TX. It is $60 a month for 400 MBps service, unfortunately upstream is only around 20 MBps. Then I have Amazon Prime using Amazon TV for whatever Prime charge for a year. I hooked up the TV to an old rabit ear antenna for OTA...
