If this happens often, may I suggest you have this information included in FAQ? Better yet, maybe there's an opportunity here to address this in the firmware itself: see below. I tried that a few times: Pressed it only long enough to feel the tactile feedback. It did not register the...

Brand new NL, running the latest firmware and desktop software, charged fully. When I try to enter the Test Mode, as follows, it gets stuck on step 5: TEST MODE Ensure that you are outside and can get GPS reception. Enter Menu mode by pressing the Green and Orange buttons simultaneously...

My first OWU event. Loved it. Met a few SB'ers: NetDoc, Michelle (Muggsy), Doc escorted by Patty, Scuba Barbie & Captain Randy, Steve, Divin'Hoosier, Mike (BoneCrusher), Mike (Diving Right In Scuba) & I am sure several others whose names escape me at the moment. Excellent selection of seminars...

Makes perfect sense to me. :-) Most unexplained phenomenon often lend themselves beautifully to a scientific process. Thank you Dan, that was a very thoughtful recital. Note to self: Don't forget to hit the gym before planning a dive trip to Lake Worth FL ;-)

What Jim said. While it is true that in every industry there are a few bad apples that give bad name to the rest, IMHO, this one takes the cake. This professional's modus operandi has "a diving accident waiting to happen" written all over it. Find a better instructor. You may indeed help save...

So sorry to hear this. My thoughts and prayers are with her family and friends.

I plan on being there on Sat & Sun. Being local, it would a shame if I were to miss it. Looking forward to it... ---------- Post added February 9th, 2013 at 07:27 PM ---------- What a sacrifice, Elena. Envy!! Finally, it has started to feel like the usual Feb weather :cold: around here in...

Congratulations! Gin-clear water does wonders for re-moisturizing gills. ;-)

Either way, I'm with Dan on this one. ;-) :popcorn:

2013 goals: Cross the 150 dives milestone before Dec 2013. Help at least 6 newly minted OW divers become safety-focused divers. Look into DIR / GUE Fundies dive, dive, dive...

Let's call it the new beginning, shall we? :balloons: Congratulations. Plenty of reasons to celebrate: you've not only survived being bent in Belize, you may have possibly help prevent a few of such incidents downstream by taking time to share your experience here at SB. Thank you, themagni.

Edward: Thanks for the link to BSAC policy statement on Alternate Supply (AS). Interesting to note that the most common failure mode of a regulator was free-flow while filling a DSMB or lifting bag (i.e. 31 % of the total recorded incidents involving AS). Being a recent recruit to the art...

Please do not discard, Pottermom: let's recycle that sign --it may spare me having to dumpster dive looking for a cardboard box. ;-)

I can see how this can quickly add up, tye1138. Fortunately, I was able to arrest my gear-buying spree before things got out of hand! For now, I am holding my feet to fire --no more new gear until I've made at least 100 dives. ---------- Post added December 6th, 2012 at 05:45 PM ----------...

In my books, that resolution alone warrants some celebratory bubble making. Truly inspirational 2012 accomplishment, if I may say so.

Not yet. Would love to do so once the temps start to climb up again. Thanks for the shout-out from across the lake. Someone did mention the MUD club while I was at the local quarry little while ago, so checking out one of your meets has been on my agenda for the next spring. Thanks for...

Perfect. Added those two to my list of things I now have to have. I hope the asylum is below the thermocline and open to all ,not just those with at least a dozen c-cards or GUE/DIR/Tek compliant. Maybe they will grant me access seeing I already have a serious case of Scubaitis and 7 footer...

I am on it --already packed and ready to spend this weekend in Coz. Thank you, DivemasterDennis, for pointing out that the cure is worse than this wonderful condition. I know I'm hooked. Had it not been for a great Instructor and the mountain of real-world insights all of you serial bubble...

That is so reassuring, TSandM. I am glad to hear I am in great company. :-) Thanks! ---------- Post added November 30th, 2012 at 07:57 AM ---------- Thank you, for your input, Searcaigh. For now I am playing it safe by not diving deep and being conservative about my bottomtimes. Not diving...

Thanks for the info, MMM. Already packed, and ready to embark on...... mi primer viaje al paraíso - Cozumel! ps: Learning spanish, please pardon any bloopers ;-)
