Yesterday I started putting up lights for my Christmas display. Everybody kept on saying, Halloween isn't even here yet don't put you lights up. I told them I don't want to feel rushed later because I am going to have my official lighting ceremony the Friday after Thanksgiving.

Anyway I have finished all the lights that are up on my gutterline 14 strings of 150 lights a total of 2100 lights. And I am just getting started.... Evilgrin.

I ran into a couple problems once they were up and I was starting to test them. Half of one strand of Icicles is out, I still need to go figure out what bulb is bad.

I know its been a while since I have talked much about this project, but I have been busily working on it for the past few months.

I believe I last left you off in Part 1 with Pictures of my FM Transmitter assembly completed. Since then I have assembled my Light-O-Rama [LOR] Controllers, pulled power and signal wires, Built and mounted enclosures, and sequenced some songs.

As you all might remember I posted about Christmas Lights Transiberian Orchestra Style last December. You also might remember I said my wife wouldn't let me do it to our own house. She reconsidered and we will be doing it this year we have been planning it for a few months and I figured now that I am starting my assembly phase that I should document it as well as writing a tutorial on how to do it yourself.

The first thing you need to know is you need a light controller. One of the better companies out there that sell light controllers needed to run the displays is Light-O-Rama. They are easy to program using their software.
