Took the landrover to get some work and MOT stuff this morning, think I had a lucky escape, got to within half a mile of the workshop and one of the front propshafts started to fail, I made it there just about. I just added it to the list of stuff that needs doing. exhaust, fuel tank replaced ...
did'nt think it was doable really, just sat here bored thinking about stuff, dedicated offroad camping trailers seen way too expensive for the amount of time I would actually use one , I am getting a bit past crawling out of a tent on my hands and knees so thinking about alternatives
Thought has just occured to me and I would like the opinions of the group, would it be do able to get myself a second hand trailer tent and somehow uprate the suspension and tyres to make it capable of some 'gentle' green laning / wild camping ?
Its just a thought while I am sat here at home...
Standard PMR radios kick out about half a watt of power, however a dual band 70 cm / 2 meter hand held can be used on the same frequencys as PMR and will kick out 5 watts which is much more useful, however without a ham licence it's sort of illegal but it's unlikely you will get onto trouble, it...
Been looking at midland GB 1 as a PMR addition for the land rover , not sure if it will be useful, use midland Alan 42 for CB as it is hand held but has a car kit where you can use it with an external antenna
sounds good to me, what will the green lane sections be like ( I am a complete noob off road but willing to learn ) and 22nd of pril is my birthday and cant think of anyway better to celebrate it
Now I have one can anybody pp my me at some resources that show me best practices with using it. I don't want to make stuff worse if I am using it wrong
Cheers

I could be up for that depending on dates, work, kids etc. sounds like a good idea, are you thinking camping or bed and breakfast (would prefer camping myself but its all good)
