We are now 100% ad-free! (How to help keep the lights on)

[Manitou]

Hello everyone,
You may have noticed a major change on the forum today: Google Ads are completely gone. Over the last few months/years, Google changed how they serve ads. They began cluttering our pages with disruptive layouts, hurting the site experience while simultaneously cutting our payouts to almost nothing. We are transitioning to a member-supported model. If this forum has ever saved you time, diagnosed a tricky electrical issue, or helped you find the right part for your Chinook, please consider making a small donation to help us cover our annual server hosting and backups. How you can support the forum: Click the new PayPal Donation link located in the top navigation area (Next to "Quick links". Any amount helps—whether it is the cost of a cup of coffee or a tank of gas. If you'd like to discuss anything about this, I've started a thread in the "Around the Campfire' section of the forum. Thank you all for being part of this community and for helping us keep this resource alive and now, ad-free. Best regards, Manitou (aka Jason Hess)
