Got mine today sort of.  EVERY coop I have been in so far has been delivered.  If it won't fit in the mail box at the road, they would put it at the garage door.  (cant see it from the road).  Now on the coop I have been waiting on for a long time, they decide to to put a notice in my mail box that they missed me.  I can pick it up at the post office after today  <fp.

I work 40 miles north 7am to 4pm.  The post office is 10 miles south of me.  Looks like I will have to wait till Saturday morning and go get it. :-\

I wonder if this one was not left at the garage like all the others because it was insured?

Oh well at least I know it is here in town.

Sam, who is happy he flashed his etherdongle with newest firmware!

The 100ohm 3 watt resistor is 15ohm's.  colors are brown, green, black. should be brown, black, brown.  Not a big deal. I didn't notice it untill i powered the board up and checked voltages.  I had soldered the resistor in so that it stood off the board. while doing checks I watched the resistor slowly slide down to the board. It was kinda funny.  I put a 10 watt 100 ohm from radio shack in it's place works like a champ.
 all in all. Great job on the coop.

Are you saying that the resistor got so hot that it unsoldered itself.

I am sorry but a change was made to the Hub that the large resistor sent with the coop for them is not correct. This was a mistake on my part. Please do not use them. They will overheat.

The Pcb marking is Correct it does use a 100 ohm 3 watt resistor not the 15 ohm one sent in the kits.

I have enough on order to replace them so please send me a paypal for 1 cent and in the comments put that you need replacement resistors for the hub coop and how many.
I will have the resistors in hand by the weekend so get the paypal out to me right away so I can send them out to you.

The paypal is so I can generate the shipping to ship them to you.

got my package today!  Thanks Bill and FAMILY for all the hard work. 

As to the resistor, I am not going to worry about getting them from RJ.  I can swing by the electronics store and pic a few up for less than it would cost RJ to ship them to me.

Thanks!

Yes it did. It is the first time I have ever seen that happen. And I did think it was funny.

I checked my local radio shack and they do not carry a 100 ohm 3 watt resistor.  RJ, what email address should I use for Paypal?  I just know that God is teaching me patience. 

Bill and RJ, thank you for ALL of your amazing work!
