    Multiple Auctions of Exact Same Item Ending Exact Same Time? Best way?

    I got wrapped around the axle in a bidding war over two auctions of the same exact item ending at that same exact time last week. By time the 5 auctions were over the final price spread was $100-300each. I had set a higher max bid on two of the items, but with the outbid notification...

    Is There An MVCC/MVPA Chapter Covering Ft Walton Beach FL?

    Moving to Ft Walton Beach/Mary Ester FL in the next few months with my Canadian Forces 1984 Bombardier Command and Recce Iltis. Is there a specific MVPA or MVCC chapter that hosts functions in that AO? I'm disabled, my travel radius is limited.

    Greetings from Pensacola, FL

    I'm trying to get myself moved to Ft Walton Beach sometime early Spring, should be bringing my 1984 Bombardier Command and Recce Iltis. I need to look up whatever MVCC chapter covers that area. I'm disabled, can't do a coast to coast drive but I can do local parades and airshow displays.

    WTB: RT-524 A6000 Oscillator Buffer Module

    My RT-524 will turn on, got speaker noise, matching unit turns but it won't key up on transmit and cooling fan doesn't kick on with Xmit. Was told the problem should be the A6000 Oscillator Buffer Module.

    MV addiction bites again. Another tank.

    My former Father-in-Law was a tanker in the Fuehrer Escort Battalion, spent some time as a guest of the Worker's Paradise until 1952. Anyhooo, due to the attrition of armor vehicles, T34s were gladly pressed into service against their former heathen owners. One snowy evening, Winter...

    Vw Iltis

    I've got an 84 Bombardier Iltis, came from a Dr couple back in NJ. Doesn't quite fit into any catagory here, though. I did her up in the Command and Recce version, scratch built a Belgian-style GPMG Mount Kit for the co-driver, airsoft FN MAG58 on a GI soft mount.

    RT-524 (AN/GRC-12) Won'T Trans Anymore

    I've got an RT-524 installed in Pepe, my Bombardier Iltis. However, last week the motorpool gremlin got to it, it will no longer transmit with either the brand-new "porkchop" handmic or the headsets. I tried to ground the 4 pin but it still won't trans. Any ideas? Or am I stuck shipping...

    Anyway to wire AV/VRC-12 Antenna for CB Use?

    How would I know what kind of tuner to use? Find out the wattage of the ANVRC12 System? I can process Firemissions while switching freqs back and forth from the RT-524 to the 442 Aux unit, but this tech stuff is above my paygrade. That Cobra 29LTD Army Strong CB would look good in my...

    Hello, I have two antenna mount assy for my 1984 Bombardier Iltis, only one of which is being used to run an AN/VRC-12 Comms System. I was wondering if I can wire my other antenna to a Cobra 29LTD and adjust the matching unit for CB use to keep the original appearance?
