lets take a look joe . . . . the ethernet port on the pc is plugged into the cable modem the ethernet to cable modem thru bandpass filters is connected to the big silvery wire thingy on the big tall wooden fence post in the neighborss yard and then it goes out of sight in both directions but im told it goes to the company that supplies my cable tv precis communications up in price ut. so i have both cable and dsl and they come into my home on the same 75 ohm tv cable. what do i have if not cable dsl as advertised by precis budd .

as far as the aux heater heres on avail from northern tool and equip. http//www.northerntool.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/productdisplaystoreid=6970&productid=21785&r=21785 its a zerostart 17500 btu cab heater model# 700-0101 looks like what youve described as your looking for. now as far as a remote stater cant help you there. infact im not sure what exactly your looking for something to keed engine warm while sitting parked overnight you mentioned a sensor for temp if im right why not a block heater i used a freeze plug style in my old d100 worked well and kept it warm enough to where the heater worked reasonable when first started up. i hate to be cold! -chris team; im looking for suggestions on a remote starter for my 92 dodge van. alarm okay but really need the temperature sensing unit that will start the truck and keep it warm. also need suggestions on an auxiliary heater to plumb into the heater core lines. 15000+ btu would suffice. cheers g. talk is cheap whiskey costs money. .
