    Ham Radio - What kind of Antenna are you using?

    Timely thread. I am currently running a 2m/70cm Tram 2.5db gain on an NMO mag mount. I need to devise something that when mobile, will sit above my roof top tent. The tent has a thick PVC cover over aluminum so mag mount up there isnt gonna work.

    Large Bags - Duffel or Similar for Roof Rack Use

    I use a Lewis N Clark 40L dry bag on my rack. I used it for a 7k mile cross country trip through with snow & hail with no issues. Dust did get deep into the roll top, but never inside.

    Camping near Yellowstone?

    Just a little bit farther on, closer to the Tetons, I found Lizard Creek campground to be great. Quiet & on the lake.

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    I'm putting the roof tent back on today. We are over the hump of the hot summer weather, and hunting season is upon us.

    Let’s Go Digital on the move

    You're really starting to scratch my diy electronics itch with the raspi. I do a lot of experimenting with Arduino. and I wanted a good reason to play with a raspi... Now.. If we connect the two, and build a hamshack with a arduino controlled switching system and a touchscreen... :smirkcat:

    Water Proofing

    I didn't bother. It hangs on the back rain or shine. It goes through muddy conditions and it gets hosed out.

    Cross-Band repeater on the ISS!

    New Ham Question.. If I know when the SS is overhead I *should* be able to point my HT at it and pick it up?

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    I installed an aux fuse box & switch pod. I had to make a bracket to fit it in my cramped engine bay. This is the cheapo Nirider fuse box and switch pod. It is absolutely easy plug & play. I will eventually be tying this box to a dual battery system with DC>DC charging.

    Greeneville Maine Area

    Maine State Parks wont turn you away at a campsite. They will direct you to "quarantine" at your site. No moving around the camps. - At least that was my experience.

    Anyone actually use back-up cameras?

    I relocated mine as soon as I put my rear spare on. I have to parallel park daily, so it is a real help. I built a wiring harness with a second cam and when I take the tire off, I unplug the aux cam, and flip a switch to use the stock cam again.

    Securing a Roof Top Tent

    I use these: I will add, that to remove my tent, you need two different wrenches on 16 nuts, sockets wont fit, so anyone trying to steal my tent is looking at at least 30 minutes of knuckle cutting, box end wrenching.

    Has overlanding become elitist ?

    I spend time and money making sure everything on my vehicle is modular and locked. When its not going to be used in the next couple days its off my car.

    Coffee Set Ups

    I hardly ever drink a full cup of coffee unless its COLD outside. I do usually make a cup though. I bring plain coffee in a jar, sugar and light cream, and I do a simple pour over using a Sea>Summit filter.

    (Need assistance) Connecticut to Washington (and back)

    My suggestion, High Tail it out of New England/Mid Atlantic and dont look back until your past Chicago somewhere. You can start to decide North or South Dakota (SD). Hit the Black hills, Mt. Rushmore, Deadwood. Then you have real choices to make. I go to Montana (Glacier NP) then south through...

    Subaru Owners Registry

    Money is not my biggest concern with this car. I dont have kids. I have a job. I could put whatever I want under it. I am building the car for cross country trips to go to mountain places we dont have in PA. That means a lot of miles before and after off roading. What I have done is 1" ADF lift...
