NASCAR runs E15 INDY runs E85 The higher percentage of ethanol in your fuel the lower your mileage will be in the same vehicle. I used to run an E85 Suburban and kept extensive records. The price difference has to have a gap greater than $X (differs for every vehicle based on mpg) for its use...

Ok. I’ll throw in a 6” Globe Universal Manifold Check on top of my previous offer! :laughing:

What is “easy”? Niagra Rim is a great trail not too terrible far but I am not sure if the gates are open on the forest roads yet.

Trade you a 400 gpm fire pump, a used TotalPac and a bunch of pipe! :grinning:

Seen it in an Andrew St. Pierre White video. Been doing it ever since.

I’ve never heard a sound on that channel speaking anything other than Russian in my area (any area for that matter). Have never made a contact calling CQ either. That said, having an “official” frequency seems pointless. Just decide at a trips start what we will talk on and away we go. Too many...

I use Motion X but have neglected to really buckle down and learn it well. Looking for pointers and tips.

I am going with over built. The ‘con is not what people make it out to be and has bypasses. Look into what stock rigs have made it through. Doing an axel upgrade for a trip that is heavily highway seems overkill. That’s not to say it is not a great upgrade if it makes sense for other stuff you...

My event organizing days are well behind me but a very cool event would be a HAM training at the top of Mount Diablo. (There is a large overflow lot just before the top). I am a beginner at best so it would be cool to get pointers and then try stuff out. The simplex range from there is great and...

Should be out that direction. I’ll have my radio on. 146.460 is what I’ll be listening to.

Mono Lake overlook on Hwy 395 in Ca. (Not my photo though I’ve been here many times. http://www.macdphotographs.com/ amazing work.)

And if there are enough stickers placed there.... art?

Was there many other people here? Have though about checking it out but not so interested in crowds.

Usually starts about six blocks down the hill when my hood latch pops! Mentally, I try to turn the entire trip into the adventure. If I limit it to just the trail, forest, desert, etc., it seems to add a strange urgency to getting there that I simply do not enjoy. I try and start my enjoyment as...

.....but then you have state sanctioned “art” out there as well. I’d say it’s all a blurry line at best. Eye of the beholder type thing I guess. I lean toward the “trash is trash” angle as I see the close it down angle being used one day.

When it’s all the same type of trash is it an art collection?

I like to use my shovel when possible. Digging and dropping into a slight hole makes it easier to get level in my experience. Also easier to deal with the rtt on an already tall rig. When the ground is to hard I go the rock/ firewood route.

Don’t think I will be at a tuning stage Saturday as I will most likely not be permanently mounted. Still playing with APRS and trying to learn the radio at the kitchen table. My family have quickly accused me of turning into a radio nerd so it will be getting installed for good shortly at which...

Anyone wise in the ways of ham going to be attending this weekend? I have questions that could use some answering and am slowing going down the rabbit hole on my own...which is far to dangerous.

Everyone runs matched tire pressures front and rear? I typically adjust for load just a bit. I guess a two tire setup may be better for me.
