Well, the AM900 transmitter broke about halfway through the second hour of the show. So, sorry to those who were listening, and unfortunately that takes out our recording of the show as well. We’ll keep chasing down these gremlins!

Alert Internet Surfer McKenna called worried about an expired certificate warning coming from her bank’s webpage. Sometimes such an error can be merely because the date/time of your computer is set incorrectly. However, sometimes the certificate really has expired. That, in itself, isn’t anything to be worried about: the security is still functional, but you might want to check with your bank about this.

Alert Internet Surfer Loralee called having purchased a new SD HC card, but found her reader wouldn’t see it. We explained that the newer, larger cards need different readers to access them, such as HC readers or XC for the really large media. Thankfully, those are quite inexpensive.
