Thank you so much for your thoughtful suggestion.
I have looked into the MVPA and MVCC in the past but I guess I like a less structured atmosphere and have had difficulties after joining clubs in the past.
I have seen the snobbish and cliqueish behavior of others from military vehicle purists...
The Southern Calif S.S. rally in spring and fall is a great desert event to try out your vehicles, have a little fireworks fun, and enjoy a great group of guys camping out.
LODI California is up in Northern California and has a Spring and Fall meet at the Tower Park K.O.A. campgrounds. They...
I have a load of radio manuals on disk. I will see if I have any specific to the AM1780 / VIC 1. I have somel manuals that show how to connect and mount the unit and control boxes when in conjunction with the installation of a military radio transceiver. These manuals give all the cable...
Thank you for your suggestion...
Went to Radio Shack like you suggested and ended up talking to a ham radio buff who suggested I run my grounds as short as possible from the strobe light itself. I ran a 3-4" ground for each light to the steel pole that holds the lights. I then found that these...

Will be leaving tomorrow (Wednesday) in the A.M. If we are not there when you arrive please look for some smoke...
I have the RT524 radio in the M35 that covers 30-74.95MHZ, and a 50-53.95MHZ radio in the M43. I am a dollar short and a day late again!
At least when I am lost I can have a conversation between the two lost vehicles. Maybe I can get a working "Gibson Girl" to use when I get lost..
(The above...
GPS coordinates
I just finished installinga 12VDC outlet for the Garmin GPS in the M35A2 truck. The Garmin does not use the last digits of the coordinates but a check on google shows that I should be within sight of the area.
If not, I have the Google directions from my home using Copper City...
