    Rainy day blues breakdown

    Yesterday as I was heading up 15N through Frederick, MD there was an 816 on the far side shoulder. Never one to pass up the chance I hit the next exit and went back south for the half mile or so and pulled over. Guy was out of NC somewhat near Ft Bragg and runs a scrap yard. He bought the...

    Big challenge for Medlog and others

    I really like it! My wife was even impressed. Probably would have been cheaper to have had your competetior bumped off. I get a pass on this one because technically it was USAF after the database came into being. LOL

    Radio Antenna Bases

    Now that's getting a little technical but the best I can come up with is the TACTICOM website: AS-1729/VRC Antenna - Used with vehicle installations which have the radio sets AN/VRC-12 series, AN/VRC-53, AN/VRC-64, AN/GRC-125 or AN/GRC-160. The matching unit MX-6707/VRC tunes the antenna...

    Radio Antenna Bases

    Another point of confusion based on numerous pm's today. On the right is the MX-6707 which is used for 12 series radios. The 12 series radios are Vietnam era radios that were used up to and including Desert Storm. On the left is the AS-3900 for the SINCGARS. SINCGARS is what is currently...

    The shape of things to come (M-burg gen sets)

    Anyone that looked at the GL website for gen sets saw a bunch of them at M-burg. I am sure this isn't the reason but I happened to talk to a group of folks that were working on alternative power ideas for combat units. Electical power is going green in the military. For base support there is...

    Aberdeen parts

    Two weeks ago I was told I would have to go to a conference during the week of Aberdeen. :cry: On Thursday things (for once) went to the good side and now I have a pretty decent chance to make it afterall. Got my fingers crossed but if nothing changes between now and Wednesday, I will be...

    Antenna base needed?

    Basically there are 3 types of antennaes you will probably see on civilian owned military vehicles. The most common has got to be the MX-6707 matching unit, second is the SINCGARS AS-3900, and third is probably the Shakespear antenna which works with either/or the SINCGARS and/or 12 series...

    One man's junk....

    Cleaning out an old shed from a guy that use to be in the surplus market years ago I think in the 80's and early 90's. Stuff has been sitting for years but some of it I'm literally lifting the roof off of the stuff to get to it. He are some of the pictures of what I got in today's haul...

    Interior color of Suburban

    Totally concur that black is WAY, WAY TOO HOT even on a moderate day. Wouldn't want to sit on that in shorts---OUCH. Even the burgandy can be quite uncomfortable on summer days. I would go tan or do it in burgandy and put canvas tan seat covers on the seats. I got tan seat covers from...

    Pictures of new 1008

    Ever work with Cheyene Medevac? They saved one of mine and rarely will a day go by that I don't thnk about them/that incident. Wrote a letter to the WYARNG public affairs person but never heard back. Made for a pretty decent story I thought. Guess it was just routine stuff for you all though.

    Jeep Engine

    This isn't my forte but here goes. Short version is I need to find out any suppliers or location of an engine for a 1942 Jeep. Was told it is a CJ but I don't know if that is correct. Unsure of manufacturer. Marine Gunnery Sergeant at the nearby USMCR center is looking for one to fix up a...
