Thanks guys, I need to get back out with a better camera and break the videos up I think.

I did add one more song to the display just for fun....

Mine's been running every evening since Black Friday... rain or shine and its only tripped one of the GFCI outlets once and that was my fault (it wasn't raining).

Though I don't think anyone other then friends and the neighbors have been by to see the show...   <fp.

The Porch / 2011 Show....
« on: December 01, 2011, 09:38:07 am »
Wanted to say thanks to RJ, Jnealand and everyone else on the board here, its fun to have a show up and running.

This year its only 48 channels, but I already have plans to double that for next year simply by adding an arch and a mega tree to the mix....

Oh, what have I gotten myself in to?

Jim, you make it sound easy.

I've got one and a half "songs" sequenced for my 48 channels...

the first one though is only two elements and its to Linus explaining the Christmas Nativity from the Charlie Brown Christmas special, so I don't truly count that one.... I'm further along with getting the lights hung on the house than I am sequencing... and my wife already thinks I'm crazy!

The Porch / Recycle Lights at the HomeDepot...
« on: November 03, 2011, 04:20:54 pm »
Just what it says....

Take in your used or broken Christmas lights and this Home Depot coupon, and you can get one of the following three coupons:

-$3 off Home Accents Holiday LED Lights
-$4 off Martha Stewart Living or GE Holiday LED Lights
-$5 off EcoSmart or Light Show Holiday LED Lights

They did this promotion last year and it was a really great way to upgrade ancient or broken strands for new, energy efficient ones.

This deal is running 11/3-11/13. Each string that is recycled qualifies for a coupon with a limit of 5 coupons.

I picked up a CZH-5C from ebay the other day, its been plugged in and running since I got it and I'm able to hear the music I'm broad casting throughout my whole neighborhood.

Works well with the antenna that came with it.

Keith, I got the box today, however there was only one wireless express board. I should have had two, a quick glance shows everything else is right.

I would think it would work as long as the comm ports are set correctly in the right programs...

There is a big push to rename it from CLAP - Christmas Light Addiction Problem to ECLAS - Extreme Christmas Light Addiction Syndrome.  JK ;D

Did anyone else notice that the favicon for that site looks like a leaping arch?

I thought that if you bought the LE in a coop, you didn't have to program the pic? (I know I didn't program any of the ones with my three LE's)

Not that it negates the problem of the board....

Glad you were able to get it working.

The Porch / Re: New Music
« on: April 22, 2011, 11:34:34 am »
I'm looking to do something with Jewel's version of Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer where she yodels with her mom...
Also a couple of Buffett's christmas songs, possibly Christmas Cannon by TSO and something from Charlie Brown Christmas.

Really, I'm going to let my wife and kids pick the music....
