    What makes an ambulance an RV?

    See if you can find someplace that has old ambulances that they will part out. The jumpseats in them fold up so they don't take much space and often have integral seatbelts.

    surplus helicopters?

    A propeller is a meager,weak device that needs the assistance of airfoils in order for the craft to attain flight. A rotor is a device that achieves flight by beating the air into submission. We sir, are rotor heads!!:mrgreen:

    RADAR set - where to mount on Deuce?

    Turn Signal problem- (new one)

    Check the bulbs and make sure they are correct. In some vehicles(not sure what you have) if you put a single pin based bulb in a bi-pin base socket it will short across and cause all sorts of fun.

    generator to run house and well

    Just a reminder, ANY modification or addition to a residential electrical system requires a permit and inspection. adding a new gen input breaker, interlock device and associated wiring and devices falls into this. Yeah, I know, permits are a pain in the butt, and doing the job to code is...

    How does the Shakespeare high survivability antenna whip fasten to the base?

    I have a base that is a straight pass through, just the connector, the spring and the antenna contact. no matching equipment internal to it at all, would something like that work for you? part# AS-3449/VSQ-1 NSN 5820-01-183-9462
