    Comms on the road?

    I’m in NJ (fort lee). It might be worth getting a GMRS license and radio in your truck. A lot of us who have both licenses end up using GMRS when simplex a lot of times for convenience sake. You won’t get anywhere near 50 miles in this area though lol Repeater networks here on GMRS are small...

    What justifies the expense for a rooftop tent?

    Check out Overland Vehicle Systems. Their cheapest tent was like $1000, they do a lot of sales and have discount codes as well as coupons.

    What justifies the expense for a rooftop tent?

    Pulling into camp late at night, open up the tent with my pillows, sleeping bag and fur blanket already inside and racking out under the stars Being comfortable every single time (am I the only one that hates air mattresses?) Waking up in the morning with this view and I’m sure there are...

    02 Xterra bumper recommendations

    Schrockworks and coastal off-road both have good options in my opinion. If you’re familiar with xturda on Instagram that’s what the coastal looks like. I will be going the schrockworks route for my 2003 xterra Of course there is the ARB option @reaver or @ryno9562 might have some good insight

    Comms?

    I’m JUST within the southern reach of the network and there is 24/7 chatter. Sometimes hard hard to jump in. I don’t do DMR, just occasionally I’ll hop on EchoLink. Do you listen to KQ2H?

    Comms?

    Just thought I would share the repeaters on APRS in New England. I drove from NJ to Canadia last week with consistent Repeater access on VHF/UHF. Interestingly enough most of the repeaters in the NY area are linked together into one huge network that reaches into PA, NJ, CT, VT and Canada as...

    Moose River Plains Fall 2021

    All good things must come to an end, but as we were cleaning and packing up on the last day our friend took a picture of camp. It’s probably not the prettiest picture in this thread but there’s a lot of great stuff going on in here… possibly including the empty “dummy tent” our friend used to...

    Moose River Plains Fall 2021

    MRP is pretty remote, hard to believe it is in NY. There is ZERO cell phone coverage in the area. I asked the lady at the gas station in Inlet about cell coverage and she laughed and let me use the gas station wifi. I wouldn’t count on the area ham radio repeaters. MRP is surrounded by some...

    Moose River Plains Fall 2021

    Just more of the seemingly endless beauty of the area. The camera can only capture so much though… We scoped out 85 spots and camped at 2 of them. There are so many amazing sites but waking up with the view of the stream at the first site… incredible The shot and the setup lol There is a...

    Moose River Plains Fall 2021

    The wife and I just returned (and are still recovering) from our trip Moose River Plains in way up upstate NY (aka Canadia). I plan to put a little summary of our trip and of MRP. If you can go this week do yourself the favor and GO!. This was hands down the most scenic and perhaps the BEST TRIP...
