DEAR SUN SPOTS: Once again, thank you for your great investigation on various topics. Was the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show televised this year? I did not see it listed in the SJ TV Preview Guide. Thank you for all you do. — G. Macdonald, Lewiston.
ANSWER: The Westminster Dog Show took place from Feb. 11 to Feb. 15. The events were televised on FS1 (Fox Sports) and Nat Geo Wild as well as Fox Sports Go which is streamed online. This is the first year since 1984 that the competition did not air on the USA Network. Unfortunately, FS1 and Nat Geo Wild are two cable stations that are not included in the TV Preview Guide.

DEAR SUN SPOTS: You’ve been so helpful and kind to so many readers. Hopefully, a helpful and kind reader will help me. I need an instruction booklet for my Alcatel Onetouch cellphone. Would someone be willing to make a copy of theirs and send it to P.O. Box 4084, Naples, ME 04055? Thank you. — No name, Naples.
ANSWER: Sun Spots did some research and there are several different versions of the Alcatel Onetouch. Luckily, they have a product website that allows you to choose your exact phone and download the user manual. The website is alcatelonetouch.us/product-support. You should be able to print your manual, although most of them are close to 100 pages long. They are, however, easy to view and read on a screen if you have access to a computer or other internet-connected device.
