Dan and I made a wireless Skype phone. Now I can walk around the house while I talk to people on Skype.
I installed this USB high-power wireless panel at my grandma's house, so she can get Internet access from a neighbor. In exchange for Jellies & Jams, of course.

The #Qi #charging has become so ubiquitous. In this scenario, the companies are going an extra mile to develop the charging solutions in order to stand out among competitors. One such company which is producing high quality charger is the #X-Doria. The Qi dual charger produced by X-Doria is the Defense. This charger is made from high quality luxury materials.
Looking at the design of this charger, it is a no brainer that it is made to wirelessly charge an iPhone and a set of AirPods simultaneously. The place where you can charge the #AirPods is a small pad on the right side of the charger.
The pad for the AirPods is nested just behind the line of the panel on which the #iPhone is charged. It is a very smart move because it allows you to place your phone in portrait position. In such case, the AirPods hide behind the iPhone.
On the front side of the charger, there are small lights that let you know when the phone is being charged. In many opinions, these lights may be a bit annoying for the people who want to use this device as bedside phone charger.
The quality of design of this charger is maintained with the help of anodized aluminum. The small perch for the AirPods is covered with the silicon while iPhone charger is covered with the genuine leather pad.
The footprint of this charger is quite smaller. You will be surprised when you will look at it from a side. It is going to look like a price of leather placed on the top of the metal sheet. The nice tapering on the back creates a nice illusion of a very thin charger.
An additional USB-A output is also present at the back side of this charger. The major benefit of this USB output is that it lets you charge other devices such as Apple Watch or Apple watch charger.
The USB-C is also present on the charger. This is basically the input port for the charger. This charger comes with a 10W power brick and a 10-feet long USB-C cable.

Demonstration of a wireless loop connected to a video monitor in the waiting room of my audiologist, Joan Chesick, at W.N.C. Ear, Nose and Throat doctors, Asheville, NC. This is a marvelous--and simple–technology allowing a hard-of-hearing person whose hearing aids are fitted with an inexpensive telecoil (or T-coil) to pick up broadcast or amplified sound very effectively by a better method than the usual. The hearing loop (a hidden copper wire circling the auditorium, church, room, other space) is linked to the PA system. Your ears receive the sound as clearly as if the speaker is sitting next to you. A loop can also be set up in your own home and connected to the TV or music system.
If you wear hearing aids, or are thinking of getting them, BE SURE to talk to your audiologist about getting a telecoil in your aids and TURNING IT ON. I'm an advocate! Read more here:

A scene from the days when wireless had a different meaning: the backroom workshop at Gripton's Radio Stores. Black Country Living Museum. 9th November 2013.
Ah... internet. We couldn't move in without you.
We got the internet connected before we had water :-)

This is the final destination for the doorbell. Ran into a few issues with it repeatedly going off, even when the doorbell button wasn't pressed. Enabling the internal pullup resistor on the relevant analog input on the Arduino sorted that out (plus a bit of code to debounce the input).
Code for the doorbell is now over here:

Anyone remember the inside of our wireless cabin, single story next to the control tower? I'm on the ATC circuit where flight plans were transmitted on this circuit and actual time of departure (ATD), was sent to all the other route stations as the wheels of the aircraft left the ground. Notice all the labels indicating circuit names are turned away from the camera - just our contribution to the cold war security. We almost always had interference from Russian wireless stations which operated on the same frequency.
However the wireless operator fraternity were sympathetic to each other, there was more than one occasion when life was threatened, a message had to get through requesting an aircraft for medivac, or taking a mayday from ship grounded on the tip of the island (World Jury), I asked the Russian w/op operator to stop transmitting while I sent an urgent message, HM...HM…HM..de MRQ PSE QRT AS AR seem to stop them giving me QRM (interference from their transmission).
I don’t think the CO liked us talking to our opposite number in Russia, using the ‘Q’ code and international universal abbreviations as well as the military 'Z' code, (which they shouldn't know anything about), you could develop a reasonable conversation with any other w/op, whether or not they could understand the english language!!!
International morse code for 'Emergency Silence' is HM in morse . . . . _ _ sent three times before station identifier, all stations on frequency will always stop transmitting and start listening, even those at war... well cold war anyway.
I and other enthusiasts also operated as VS9OC from the Masirah Radio Shack, the very nicely painted sign depicting a transmitting Antenna Tower and the Callsign were expertly painted by SAC John (or Keith) Taylor.
J/T John Bleazard and I 'found' a 1509 transmitter, John being the expert, installed and maintained it, as well as operating from the same callsign, we used an old HRO receiver for listening on both W/T and R/T reception, see the Radio Shack on John's Link -

About the World Jury - an Extract from
www.rquirk.com/med/244sqn/244news/244newsn04.pdf
Monsoons and shallow waters have brought a virtual graveyard of wrecks around the island. The most spectacular probably being the tanker "World Jury", which ran aground off the southern tip of the island in 1961.
Difficulties with the monsoon and looting plagued the salvage efforts. The vessel eventually broke in two and was abandoned. A near neighbour of mine told me that he worked as catering staff in Masirah in the early fifties. He helped with work on a wreck, and was surprised and delighted to receive a substantial cheque from the salvage authorities!
We stayed at the brand new (well, it's just over a year old) Tokyo Disneyland Hotel for one night while we visited Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo Disney Sea on September 4th & 5th. We had planned to go with two other people, so I had booked a family suite with four beds and two baths... however, it wasn't possible for the others to come, so, the two of us had the suite to ourselves. It wasn't a bad hotel, it's perhaps not the most luxurious accomodation (well, not if you are used to The Park Hyatt Tokyo, anyways, and compared to other hotels you could get for 150000 JPY) however you definitely get the feeling that they are purposely trying to make the room uncomfortable, so you want to spend as little time as possible in it, and more time in the park buying Winnie the Pooh souvenirs.
The internet is not wireless (this bugged me, it is simply inexcusable in this day and age, especially in a NEW hotel!), and rather slow, and the room itself just wasn't... "comfortable". It reminds me of older hotels that have a grand lobby (which this one surely does), but once you get past that there really isn't that much (kind of like almost every Fairmont hotel in the World). Anyways, the restaurants were nice (though quite expensive for what you get, which surprisingly isn't a running theme in Tokyo Disneyland), and we were unable to try the Lunch Buffet as reservations are required, and we didn't make any. It looked good, though, and was obscenely busy. I think next time I would be more likely to just commute 40 minutes back to Shinjuku at the end of the day, as it really is not that far.
ORNL researchers including Chester Coomer work with various designs to optimize performance of wireless power transfer coil units.
This chain has been disappearing for years and is likely to be entirely gone by the end of 2014.
