    Anyone picking up in Chambersburg PA headed east towards NH

    F-350 should be no problem moving it. Stopping may be problematic and I'd be the first to tell you I have done some stupid towing (Deuce and 105 with my Dodge 1500) but I sure wouldn't try the interstate.

    Longevity of POR-15 on undercarriage?

    That's good to know as I was going to buy some to put on spots on my pickup. EDIT: I was commenting on the good to know that it was crap paint. I do like Rustoleum though.

    Torque rating

    Not to pile on the abbreviation for torque is not TQ. It is TRQ. http://www.abbreviations.com/abbreviation/Torque TQ (This was news to me....) http://www.abbreviations.com/tq Is Thank You or Total Quality (what I assumed it was).

    F-16 pilot flies back to base with half a wing missing

    Reminds me of George Kennedy in Airport: "Joe Patroni: That's one nice thing about the 707. It can do everything BUT read." [throws his chewed and soggy cigar over his shoulder] Same can be said for the F-16 and F-15. :-)

    kats tank heater

    When both my Kats heaters failed I called them. They put me right to their tech support and the guy said the thermostat may have failed. Now, if I want anything to start I have heaters that I can plug into an outlet and point them at the trucks or backhoe. Mine are inside so I don't have to...

    Florida auction

    Several people are gloating about it. You also were not the first and all the people who have been saying the same thing for years were correct as well.

    block heater

    My two were the 300W magnetic. They worked great until smoking and melting while stuck to the oil pans of my Deuce and backhoe.

    I wish you better luck than the last couple of weeks of posts where two of us have had two Kats fail completely and melt down. (4 Total)

    Official 2015 Georgia Rally Radio Communications Thread

    Yeah, I was going to mention that JP. You did well with that little mag mount I loaned you on the M37 coupled with your radio. I usually ran about 25W back at the base tent off my makeshift "tower".

    Official 2015 Georgia Rally Radio Communications Thread

    That might be doable but by the time they get their sign the rally would be over. But it helps for when they come to next and the rest of the time in between. Use SS Member VEs or contact locals? My former boss at Miami is the one who coaxed me into getting a license about a year ago and then...

    Official 2015 Georgia Rally Radio Communications Thread

    Bringing this up to the forefront. Since it is about bad weather wise as it can get might I suggest that now is a good time to study for the Amateur Technician Exam. If you have ever wanted to be licensed and get on the air with others at the rally then take the test. See (or talk) to you there.
