All these Pictures were taken with a Cannon, SX50HS Camera, Set on "Auto". It has "Up to 50 Times Optical Zoom" as was used on Photo 7. No Additional lens and Just Hand Held, No tripod. I also has Up to 200 Times Digital Zoom, But I never use Digital Zoom. Here is a Picture of the Mascot Mine I took Yesterday. This Mine is up on the mountain beside my house here. Taken with 50X Zoom. (Was 4Mb, so I had to Reduce the Size to put here.) -12C Degrees here this morning, but to give some Perspective of Distance. Here is the Mascot Mine in this Picture, Taken Today with No Zoom. You can see it, Close to the Center of the Picture. (Just to the Left Side of the Center Peak.) This Camera:

Due to Numerous Emails, Requesting that I keep my website up, (at least for Informational purposes) I will renew it for One More Year. But going Past this new renewal date, I don't know if I will renew it further than that.
My website provider is Telus.net and they offered me a Free Evaluation of it. They found almost No Broken Links, but rated it at 45 out of 100. Only 45 because I write this site one line at a time, writing the HTML Code in Notepad. So it is Not very Compatible with Mobile Phones and Tablets.
I also have a "Free Website Builder" available to me from Telus.net that would properly Update my site to current standards, But it would be a lot of work and looking at the Basics Layouts that are available, I am not impressed, it takes away my personal touch.
I also have a Problem understanding the overall procedure in doing this with their editor. Sort of "Between a Rock and a Hard Place".

Yes this is an Electronic Forum, But Soon to be DELETED as is my website.
I have Simulated Many Circuit that work in Simulation but Not in Real Life. And many that work in Real Life but don't work the same in Simulation. Simulation work with "IDEAL PARTS" that don't really Exist.
My Opinion, Prototyping and Testing Real Circuits is the best way to learn. Unfortunately Not as Cheap.

Who Cares How it Simulates, It is How good it works in REAL LIFE.

With the current fires, they are pushed to the Limit Now. They have brought in another 300 fire fighter and Equipment from across Canada to help fight the fires. But the weather here remains HOT and their expecting High Winds in a few days. The Hope is NO FIRES in my area.Interactive Map of Fires in BC, Canada

The Entire Province of British Columbia, Canada is under a " State of Emergency" due to Hundreds of Forest Fires now burning. And Lots of Smoke throughout the province. However this smoke created a Colorful looking Full Moon Last Night at 10:30PM. This is a 50X Optical Zoom of it, With my Cannon "SX50HS" Camera. Their are No Fires Close to me at this Time, Thank Goodness. Click on it for Full Size.

Secretly , I also didn't think replacing all the chips would help but I was HOPING . I have spent literally weeks on this problem . Iv'e even considered breadboarding all the parts after I strip a board clean . That will be the next phase . Quite disappointing is an understatement . Anyway , thanks Gary . I will never give up but I may just shelve the problem for a while until I have more insight into how the circuit works .Cheers , Dave . I could possibly Etch and Drill a Single Sided PCB for you.
