    Is Single Side Band (SSB) useful in overlanding?

    Thanks for the reply. I ended up going with a regular ol' CB. I figure if I wanted to play around with SSB, I'd put one in the RV for entertainment.

    Is Single Side Band (SSB) useful in overlanding?

    I'm getting ready to purchase a CB to install in my rig. I'm wondering if SSB is worth the extra money for a radio that is SSB capable. Does anyone use it while they are out and about?

    Thanks, gentlemen! I've got my eye on weather stations in the area and will definitely avoid Soda Dry Lake if there's rain before or during the time we are there.

    I was pleasantly surprised to find out the ZR2 model had breather tubes to the top of the radiator for the front diff and tranny. The read diff goes up behind and into the rear bumper area somewhere. I don' know how high that one goes but it is at least as high as the top of the rear bumper.

    Mojave Road - December 26-29

    Thanks for the recon. I'll kept my eye on the weather out there and haven't seen any rain this month. So, I'm going to assume that the water levels are similar. We will at least drive to the Afton water crossing and scope it out. But 25 inches shouldn't be a problem for our little Tracker...

    Where'd you get the bumper for the ZR2? I'm looking for something like that. :)

    Mojave Road - December 26-29

    As a celebration of our 10th anniversary, my wife and I are planning on doing the Mojave Road from east to west December 26-29. We'll be coming from the Central Coast of California to the Laughlin/Bullhead city area on December 26, spending the night and heading out in the morning of the 27th...
