    I'm so confused!

    Others have left great responses to your other legality questions, so I'll just offer some advice to this Kenwood vs Yaesu question. They are both fantastic radios, so you'll be perfectly happy with either one. If APRS and packet radio is your main desire, I would recommend the TM-D710G over the...

    X-Bull Recovery Tracks...another inexpensive alternative

    I've had 'em on the rig for about a year and a half, mounted on my rack in direct sun (brutal Arizona sun, too). There's not really any noticeable discoloration and they've held up great. I've used them more than a few times, I've even bridged with them. We also use them for leveling the rig...
