    Radio to Radio to Laptop Windows Shell

    I'm still not really sure what you are trying to do. Access a PC in an area with no internet? What distances are involved? Is there line of site to the camp?

    Baofeng Dual Band HT UV-3R

    Is there a AA battery adaptor for them? For the price they would at least make a good radio to throw in the BOB.

    Yaesu VX-8R on a Motorcycle

    Another helmet BT to check out is the Sena SMH10. I've got a FTM-10SR that's just been waiting to get hooked up to my bike...

    Great. Hurry up and pass that point so the rest of us can get this thing.

    6 Meter Rig

    That is correct, and you cannot use a credit/debit card - check or money order only.

    Painting antenna

    The bees like it if you paint each of their hives a different color - it helps them navigate back to their own home.

    Radio junkies and gunholics...

    Dishwasher? I'd think the oven would do a better job of removing cosmo. I'd hate to get that stuff into the drain :cursing:

    Maco V58 Assembly Review

    What kind of wind speeds can this thing stand up to? It's certain that I'll get a couple of days a year with sustained 100mph winds.

    Wouxun kg-uv920r Mobile

    That's the first time I seen it mentioned for over $200. The closer it gets to $300 the less attractive it gets.

    Something for all the self-important hams.

    Is there a better quality version I could print out to hang up on my wall?

    121.5 Mhz

    My FT60 will receive AM aero band, but it will not transmit. I have the local airport freqs programed into it. It's boring around here ;)

    SO239

    Eeeeeexxxcellent. :drool: That's a great collection of connectors. I'll rethink the bulkhead connector though. That would be the easiest way to do it if you don't think there are any losses @ VHF. UHF I don't really care about too much - I use that mostly to monitor the area police, etc...

    SO239

    That's probably what I'll end up doing but it's hard to believe that I can't make my own cable. I hadn't thought of the bulkhead connector, but it's one more joint to lose signal - it'd be better to keep it as few connections as possible.

    SO239

    I purchased a mobile antenna and a length of LMR240 Ultra so I could make a custom length antenna cable for my motorbike (the premade ones are way too long for a bike). I've only bought one mobile antenna before, and it's been a while since then, so I was surprised when the antenna was...

    Looking for some direction

    One of the stipulations was comms when internet was down. I think it's HF or nothing in his case. But, as you said, everyone will have to get the licesne and shell out for the rigs in each location. Will get expensive to outfit everybody.
