I love the M109. Despite the possible issues, it's really a fine solution for a permanent arrangement for sheltered space. And I have always wanted a window or two in the S-280, alas. Let's see how the week goes, I am open to changes in routing. I hope to find more electronics surplus places and...

done! OK the vibration I was speaking of seems now in the light of day to be only the late night heebie-jeebies caused by hilly terrain, a deserted unlit narrow road full of twists and spooky places, and my imagination. Maybe I kept hearing the 'deliverance' banjo tune and thinking about a...

Is the hose from the water pump to the water manifold a 2" size? I think I will pick up some length from an auto parts store, see some seepage. I think it is like a gates 20611. If Greenville has an internet, I'll signal when I reach that objective.

pictures of the guages at speed. this may seem strange but the GPS agrees with the speedo, and I have 1.00x20's on the truck, and it came with 9.00x20's. huh.

They have a pin on top and some kind of slot on the bottom. The bottom plate has knobbies or knurls on it like it turns but I tried one and could not do anything with it.

Please tell me more about this, I didn't see it. I would like to stop on the way back.

I'm in Jackson now, so I could do that. I need some good directions and contact info (web page also?) to Buddy's, I have no idea where it really is, and don't know him or at least I don't think I do. Tonight would be good for this.. whatever is desired has to fit inside the shelter, that is...

Re: RE: road trip OCT 22 through NOV 05 I didn't do so well today, due to other people's idiocy. tried to buy some software for my GPS and it was wrong, didn't work on the GPS, didn't work on the PC, and 3 hours of my tie was wasted. I did not plan to make other stops except at junk shops...

That seems like an interesting idea. I would need a good city map, wold not want to get lost in the badlands.. I passed by Turner's Surplus on I-30. Here are some pictures.

Ok here is day one.. made it from Dallas to just west of Memphis. About 150 miles into this, noticed quite a bit of oil all over the transfer case. Not sure where it is from, still plenty in the transmission and transfer, although I think the level is lower in the transfer. The pattern looks...

I have no intention of going one turn, only the 1/6 turn I did. I'll get a feel for it over the next couple weeks.

pics of the adapter

I will be doing that. I plan to try to make it to VA on Saturday or so, there should be no rush driving. Mr. Haney had a couple of ends off one of those cables so he threw them into the pot when I bought the system. I also installed a Lowrance 3500C GPS today using a RAM mount to hold it off the...

Any idea how to get the shifter knob off? Of course it's screwed on, but it's so tight it started to crack when I used water pump pliers to unscrew it and even then it would barely move. Should it be easy to remove?

That light is very cool. I see the lens for the light, but what's the black square?

Thanks, this is all a labor of love! The adapter is debugged and working properly after some fiddling. The VIC-4 seems to require the receive audio to be put to the "K" terminal (The VIC-4 amplifier unit I have is found to be questionable so I will replace it tomorrow). I had only the VIC-1...

Turned up the juice today. First, I did it wrong, and turned it down one flat (1/6 turn) and the beast wouldn't start! so i'm thinking crap i broke it.. but then recalled what I did, and went and turned it clockwise as viewed from the front. Total of 1 flat increase over the original setting...

Here is something I did that might be of interest. This gives transmit and receive function of a CB radio over to the VIC-1 intercom system, just as if the CB were an RT524. To operate the CB normally, just unplug the adapter from the CB's mike jack and plug in the CB's mike. As with anything as...

and I thought I was going crazy for I have traced that cable.

If you need some webspace, economical, let's chat offline. I am grossly underutilizing my datacenter as it is (03% I/O) and would like to offset a few pennies here and there. I use LINUX for commerical putposes so it is easy to FTP and whatever. I also see no need for the draconian restrictions...
