I do not text much but there are times that text work well. I do text my wife to "Call me". Why???

There are actually two signals that your cell phone uses to talk. One is the "System" this is what allows your phone and the the cell towers to contact each other. The second one is for the voice/sound. Both of these signals have about the same band wide available. The voice one uses most of the band width it has a available. The System side uses very little of the band width. This is the side that text are sent on.

My house sets in a small valley. Some cell phones do not work well in our house. The fancy "smart" phones hardly work in the house. My "dumb" old flip phone works in all the rooms including the basement. My wife has a "smart" phone. 90% of the time her phone will not ring in the house. Sometimes it will not even get voice mails notices. I can text her 99% of the time and she gets them. She then can call me. Which makes zero sense that her phone will not receive a call but she can call out.

We have a joint cell phone deal. All my sons and their families all together. Here are some interesting facts for the last months cell phone bill.

Number of text messages for the billing cycle:

JD Seller 49
Wife 2700
youngest son 4107
DIL 1436
grand daughter(12yr) 404

A few months ago the son and DIL where tied at 3500 or so for that month.

We text all of the feed load numbers to myself, the two part time drivers and my two sons. That way any of us have the required information when we are making a pickup.

Today's Featured Article - An Old-Time Tractor Demonstration - by Kim Pratt. Sam was born in rural Kansas in 1926. His dad was a hard-working farmer and the children worked hard everyday to help ends meet. In the rural area he grew up in, the highlight of the week was Saturday when many people took a break from their work to go to town. It was on one such Saturday in the early 1940's when Sam was 16 years old that he ended up in Dennison, Kansas to watch a demonstration of a new tractor being put on by a local dealer. It was an Allis-Chalmers tractor dealership, ... [Read Article]
