    Ham Radio Operators... Mobile, HT, or Both?

    I have two 2m/70cm radios in my rig, the Icom 2730a is for repeaters and the Kenwood 710g is for APRS and simplex operations, when I'm traveling with other HAMS. I run a Midland MXT275 (I will upgrade to the MXT575 when it is released) for when I am running trails with non-HAMS, as well as for...

    Do I really need to bring extra gas?

    Love this setup ... I wish Long Range built them for Xterras ... I may call them and provide some measurements to see if they could build something for me.

    I used to buy this magazine at B-n-N, but it got to where I couldn't count on finding it every time a new issue came out ... Finally subscribed a few weeks ago and purchased a few back issues ... A few hiccups with the back issues, but I like the magazine, and the writing and photography is...

    Best tire for daily use?

    I'm about to put 255/85/16s on my Xterra and it's down to either the Cooper ST Maxx, BFG KM3 or Toyo M/T ... leaning toward the Coopers ...
