> > > When you guys figure that one out let me know how to keep them from
jumping on my electric fence.  I find a couple electrified petrified bodies
hanging from the wire a month.  Seems the fence shocks and they don't let
go! <<<

I thought for an electric fence to send a shock, the animal touching it,
must be grounded. (thus, birds can land on an electric fence, and not get
shocked, as they are not grounded.) Are there fences that can shock without
the animal "touching" the ground???????

The Timex GPS watch has a "feature" that when the signal goes weak, such as
heavy tree cover that it keeps calculating your distance and speed, from the
speed and direction you were traveling when the signal got weak. I have used
mine a lot, and it is great in clouds, and does well in the woods as long as
they are not constant for miles and miles. All the watch seems to need is a
little sky to show once and awhile, and it keeps tracking. I attach the
transmitter unit to the front of my saddle, instead of using the arm band.
If I get off the horse, and get the watch any distance from the transmitter,
then it will lose the reading...but I don't get off the horse much. (tho I
should!)
