    KE5EUA's 818 Build

    Alright today I got all the stuff bolted to the floor out of the cab. Tomorrow I will clean it, prep it and put some rubber coat down. My het seat will go in, and my electronics panel will be bolted to the back wall and do the tedious work of wiring everything up. I abandoned my switch box...

    The trailer bed is heading to the rally so the front deck would be empty heading back. True Murphy loves me but I've been upping my karma points just for this trip. Could just strap it to the roof of the truck, can't weigh that much, lol

    That had to be a really slow drive. Almost as bad as me almost pulling the het with the 818 when I made it to San Antonio.

    I thought about the tow bar idea since I owe jeep one anyway but the thought of stopping and realizing I'm missing something worries me. Gotta be a way for me to piggy it somehow

    Front deck? I'm just throwing ideas out since I will be going right past him on the way back to Texas.

    It was worth a shot. Unless someone has a pintle trailer that also needs headed that way that could hold it I'm of no help. I say that now, if I swapped my ball mount on my trailer for a pintle I would have a 27' trailer behind the 750. DOT would be crawling all over me, lol Edit: We could...

    If you have a mep genset you have 3 phase right there.

    I'll have to see if we have 3 phase in the shop, I know we have 2 because of the air compressor and welders. If we do I'll defiantly hook it up and wake the dead.

    It'll make it there, grandfather wasn't amused when he saw it on my trailer, and the geese are scared of it.

    Alright, got the house. Put my antenna analyzer on the dummy load and it looked good. I was worried it was giving me false readings the last time I used it. Also picked up a swr meter and a 300 watt dummy load while I was in Austin. Repeater is a bust. It puts out 50 watts but is in bad...

    Unless we plan on doing a hf station I wouldn't really see the need for an event call sign.

    I don't know why my post didn't post. The poles are galvanized steel, standard piping. Used them sever times and never had any issues. Plus using guy wires to help the wind load. I love my antenna analyzer, it has probably saved the finals on a couple radios.

    Well it's official, wife and kids will not be accompanying me. It is also possible I might not be stating the entire rally, got to figure all that out this weekend.

    I have one, I need to test the tester before I use it. I'll put a dummy load on it and run it through the bands to make sure it's g2g
