If you notice, there was a "winky" smiley after my comment, meaning my comment was lighthearted. As in "why are we all here if we don't like old stuff?" Try decaf. Please.

It's vintage radio, sure modern electronics are better and have a lot of less expensive, smaller parts. But some people just like older things. If you don't...why do you happen to be on this website? ;)

+1, the MX-2799 was the original one to that series, but it was quickly replaced by the 6707, can't remember the reason but it was discussed previously. HOWEVER, finding a 2799 is sometimes difficult, when I bought one for my GT project two years back, they were 2x as much as the 6707s, and...

No. The AS-3900 is for the SINCGARS radio sets. The correct antenna base for the RT-524/246 radio sets would be the MX-6707. They are always on eBay....

Did they get the bastards that took it? Or did they just find it on the side of the road somewhere?

Be awesome to see you and your new buggy, not sure if it will be done prior to rally, though.

A vibrator unit in vintage radio, is essentially a voltage converter, in order to make the voltages needed to operate specific parts that would not run on the provided voltage types. In this case, it converts 12 VDC into 115 VAC. Vibrator power supplies were common in the early days of radio...

Great work on that resto, pvtjorge! Way to save the green iron!

I saved a picture for you, Chair Force. Reminded me of you. :)

I have someone here who wants 4 Scepter gas cans. I tried PMing emmado22 about pre-payment but he doesn't do PMs often. If anyone has some for sale, will be buying there.

Not this time, guys, have fun. See you in a couple months, October is booked for me too.

Had a great time again, Cabell's cooking was great as always. The trails were fantastic thanks to the hard work of Steve and the Lost Jeepers crowd! Sorry I had to pull out late Saturday night, my back was really causing me problems and I didn't want to sleep in the truck again, when my own...

If you want to restore it back to the camo pattern it had last in the military, you want the MERDC camo pattern, search Steel Soldiers and you will find the correct woodland pattern colors. If you'd prefer the one-color paint color it had when it was made, that would be 24087 Olive Drab Semi Gloss.

Please correct the first post to read FALL rally, not SPRING.

Someone please buy Ron a calendar and show him how to use it. Thanks. :)

Will be arriving Friday morning, will be there through Sunday morning. Civvy vehicle, can ride along and take the pics.

Well, I'm out. Turns out the Rausch Creek PA rally is the same weekend, and comparing a good offroad rally 3 hours away with a good rally 15 hours away, I just can't yet afford a long-distance rally at this time. I'm opting for the closer one this year, maybe next time....
