Indeed! Looking forward to seeing it progress. Youll need to clean up the genset AC, its going to be too dirty to power sensitive electronics. The UPS units could do the job there, if they have that feature ( wave form cleanup and minor spike protection) The mix of freqs will provide some...

Yes, agreed, it is impossible to get a good match. Maybe try sectioning it out? Re-paint a large section so it isnt as obvious. Ill most likely spray the bed. I can get more coats on in less time spraying. Final finish, surprisngly, isnt too different from a brush as long as you have to...

Sorry, your right I didn’t provide any mil recommendations, lost my mind...:cookoo:here are some. :soapbox:To digress a moment, that ham radios are tender in nature is a misnomer. I use my FT857D as a manpack radio for “mountain topping” and while the radio shell itself was not ruggedized...

Mike, that online roster rocks, apologies for not saying so sooner. Without that roster online, it will be much more difficult to plan out convoys.[thumbzup] Im also very much up for coming down early next year, :driver:to help with chores as needed / where needed ( I can cook, clean, empty...

I have reached a limit on uploading pics or vids, :shock::o so will be a delay until I can figure out a way to share them.

To echo many other attendees, a big thank you to Aaron and Amber, couldnt have asked for nicer hosts,a perfect venue and excellent food! :-D Here are some, pics while I create an SS album and prep the videos.....:whistle:
