So to be honest, I haven't really used it much since I bought it this past winter. I just don't have "the ham radio bug" that others do. I have had it since January or February I think and have only spoken to one person on it. I bought it mainly for emergency purposes during travel since cb's...

I only wanted to buy one ham transceiver. I needed something that could easily go between multiple vehicles and take with me when hiking. I have a 36" triband antenna mounted on my Jeep and a 14" Diamond HT triband antenna for it for when I go mobile. Much better than the rubber duck that it...

Another Samsung Tab A 10.1 w/S-pen here. I use both Gaia and Backcountry Navigator apps. Just depends on which map overlays I want. Ram mounts are awesome and they are your friend.

Canyonlands at Squaw Flats campground in August of '16...... and Colorado National Monument from the same trip.....

This is a very good place to start. https://www.lonelyspeck.com/astrophotography-101/ If you are looking at new camera bodies, beware of Sony. Right now the new firmware has an algorithm that is NOT good for taking night sky photos. It is known as the "star eater" update because it considers...

I have one of their recovery straps. Haven't had a need to use it yet so I can't speak to if it works or not. I'll say that it feels a little heftier than the Warn strap that came with my Jeep. I don't have any of their shackles, I am buying soft shackles lately even though I still keep a...

I won't be able to do the trip, but I was at Dinosaur N.M. last fall on the Utah side. I did not have a chance to do any off roading or trails since I was driving my F350 work truck, so I can only offer this up. The actual park part is really nice. The dinosaur exhibit hall/museum they have...

No, it's so he can replace the Yeti cooler that the U.S. Govt' declared a superfund bio-hazard waste site. Jezus, there are overlanders, and then there are hippies. I hope to never cross that line that carries one into hippie-dom..........

I thought this thread might have been about their fridge slides. I just had one delivered today but haven't had a chance to have a look-see at it yet.

I saw this pic right when I logged on after having just woken up this morning. I swear I originally thought that was a portable sit down toilet on a fridge slide sticking out of the back of your car. I had to blink my eyes 5 times and refocus to figure out what it really...

I was wondering why there is a thread about mattresses in the communications portion of the forums.

If it has a belt clip something like this mount might work. Apparently the link isn't going to post correctly. What I used is the RAM Mounts (RAM-HOL-BC1) Naholder for Electronics with Belt Clips It is what I used to mount my Kenwood TH-D74a to my ram bar. It was a little large so the ham...

I have the AT rack in mine. Eventually going to get the AT fridge slider so I can put an ARB 50 in it under the rack. One note about the rack installation is the instructions that came with the rack differed from the parts I received. It didn't make much of a difference to me since I got it to...

Give this existing thread a look-see: https://www.overlandbound.com/forums/threads/overland-ram-mount-solutions.5752/

Here is what I did for mounting the ham radio mic on the a-pillar in my Jeep. It is a Nite-ize Steelie Magnetic phone mount. The steel ball is mounted to the a-pillar with the included adhesive and the actual magnetic mount is on the clip of the mic again with the included adhesive. So far it...

2017 Jeep Rubicon Unlimited Hard Rock with a Vector Offroad JK Dock mounted on the dash and mounted to it is my Kenwood TH-D74A ham radio, Mob Armor phone mount, Samsung Tab A 10.1 tablet, and on the passenger side is a phone holder for my girlfriend. On highway and paved roads the tablet...

Wire strippers/crimpers and some basic spade connectors and butt splice for electrical repairs. Maybe a test light or volt meter. Since I have a Jeep, I have a lot of 3/8" drive allen in both metric and standard and torx bits. A magnetic tool tray. Two tapered half inch diameter lining pins...
