    Weight of the average tank engine?

    Should there be a SE US show??

    I called the Phenix City chamber of commerce to see if there was any fairgrounds in the area. They said no, that the regional fair is held in the parking lot of the Columbus Civic Center. I noticed on the maps there is a park next to FT. Benning called Riverbend Park. Anyone local to Columbus...

    Should there be a SE US show??

    I think Carnac has a good idea with Columbus since it has the Infantry and Armor branches. As far as local shows, the closest is the Dixie Division spring show in Mobile in early April. My personal opinion, given an option I would take a mega show in Columbus over the one in Mobile. Since...

    Slave Cable with a Twist

    When I first went into the Army National Guard, there were still some early M151s with no slave recepticle. A modded cable like this was the only way to jump them off, other than using a civy type jumper cable.

    Kennesaw Mtn GA MVPA Show and Swap Meet

    A talk in frequency sounds like a good idea. My ARRL repeater guide lists two repeaters in Marietta, 146.775 and 145.490. I don't know which one is best, maybe someone local would know. I'll be coming through the Anniston area on I20 about 0800-0830 on Friday. I'll monitor 146.520.

    Battery cut off switch

    I purchased this same switch at a local heavy truck parts store. Hooked it into the ground side battery cable. Works fine in both the M35a2 and M816. Cole Hersee Master Battery Disconnect Switch 2484-A
