Hey Nolan! Good to see that you're still above ground and kicking. You were actually on my list to shout out to and see what's been going on. But with trying to get everything up and running, plus dealing with FEMA and SBA over the flood I had on Memorial Day, things have been chaotic! Yeah, it's been nice evaluating report software. But the more programs I look at, the more I'm still liking Whisper. Will probably end up buying it in the future. Right after I decide whether to keep rebuilding my Ultra Stinger or spring for a new model...lol Donald As I live and breathe ... a voice from the past. Good to see that you are back kicking about inspecting. Been a long time since we have talked. At least you don't have to deal with the TREC up in Oklahoma!!

LOL...especially when the kraft paper is exposed!

Since I let my OK license lap a few years ago, I had to take the NHIE to get them back. Took the test a couple months ago. Studied Code Check and NACHI test questions. Neither really helped that much. First question out of the box showed me a poor illustration of some type of contraption I'd never seen. By deducting what it had, I narrowed it down to a steam boiler...i think.... The rest of the test went pretty much that way. More of a "pick the BEST answer" stuff. I was totally expecting code check stuff but that's not what I got! I ended up with something like a 678 (if I remember correctly) Testing guy said it was the best score he'd seen for that test. I wasn't impressed. If I had to do it all over again, I'd study basic HI books with lots of illustrations.

Good thread. I keep going between buying a new one or just keep buying parts for my old Ultra Stinger. I love the on/off button up on the head instead of a tail switch. It's probably the only reason I'm still using my old Ultra Stinger.
