I saw that. I have been looking for the smaller one, mounted on an M762 trailer. It has a 40-something foot tall antenna. I would LOVE to have the bigger one, tho.
Alex is a good friend of mine, ( best man in one of my numerous weddings). I am there at least once a week, dinking around with him. I only live down the interstate about 20 miles,which ain't nuthin in these parts. That being said, I am kinda biased.
Call him and talk to him. He will give you...
I am in want of either the M762 version or the bigger 3/4 ton version (I don't know the "M" series number for the 3/4 ton version) trailer that has the crank-up antenna mounted on its bed. Usually the antenna is about 40 feet tall when raised, and pivots flat to travel when cranked down. I have...
I use the aluminum serving cans found inside a mermite for my 5ton. I also use them for the intake and exhaust for my MUTT for storage. (It has a fording kit)
More than likely, a PR25 or PR 77 on top of an AM2060 adapter, on top of an MT1029 mount, with an MX6707 "tuneable" antenna base bolted on a fender somewhere ( I am not sure of the exact location of the antenna). Or maybe an RT246 or RT524 bolted on top of an MT1029 mount.
Need cable...
Kinda ironic, I see old ( 1960's) 4 door "crew-cab" pickups all the time--usually painted Air Force blue, but I have also seen OD ones. There is an old International 4 -door pickup parked just down the street from me, blue with Air Force emblems on the door. Years ago they must have liked the idea.
As a 26 year veteran in a machine shop, sharpening bits, cutters, drills, etc became second nature.
As far as technique....find another old machunist and have him show you. Describing it over a keyboard would be impossible.
The actual type of sharpening device depends on a few things. If...
I was going to (and hopefully still will some day) build or restore a Chenowyth FAV. I comprised a huge amount of info, including what limited TM's, etc there were (are). The VAST majority were painted flat black. The only standard for FAV's were no two were the same. So, within certain...
That would be an M762. The exact same chassis as an M416, only it is rated at 1/2 ton. I have a couple of them.
I know a mermite will keep soda cold ALL day, in the Idaho heat on the 4th of July, while straped on the opposing rear fender as my radios on my M151A2. I put ice and a 12 pack of...
Looks great! Based on the color of the soot in the second picture, the particular shine of the replacement plate, and the appearance of the weld itself, and having welded for too many years, I would darn-near bet that the replacement steel was galvanized coated. I don't want to sound like a...
Pardon me, but I know where there is a bed for that, should you need one. It's at Idaho Motor Pool, in Fruitland Idaho. Alex says he might have a few parts laying around for it, too.
If you already have one, disregard this attempt to help out.
Might anyone have two CX-10613 cables,(in working condition), both about 4 or 5 feet long? I need two to complete my cable-absorbing project (my comm-model Gama Goat). With all due respect,for considerably less than an arm and a leg, and you don't want my first-born.
These have the three...
