So we all talk about trip planning and trip activities. I have a question about life after the trip: cleaning up and storing gear. Most I know but I have a couple new self inflating sleeping pads I use in cold weather. These give me an extra R4 insulator between my normal sleeping pad and the...

So I dabbled with using OB 1 as my iPhone map app while doing some backroad driving around our county today. Usually I use Haia GPS anytime I drive. A couple items: I used this not to track but to explore. So I drove, saw a road, looked at the map and saw where it may go. The challenge was to...

I am considering an FTM 300 radio for the rig. I'd like to have it set up so I beacon away with APRS but have a PL Tone of 100.0 turned on. On a Kenwood this is done to allow you to beacon without hearing it but allow someone nearby to call you on 144.39 so you can make contact and move to...

We are seriously looking at picking one of these up. However, we are curious as to whether this tent will support a bunk bed cot? I know two cots are about it for this tent but we have 3 people and 2 dogs so we are trying to manage our space needs. Thanks!
