This looks very yummy... @KRose and I are going to make it later this week

The IC-7100 go box is complete and ready to be deployed to full time service inside the Bronco. I used some Stimulus cash to stimulate my ham shack.

@WA4WLF if you are on an Android device this is a known issue that is being worked out and should be fixed before the next release

OB1 now supports this feature by using a long press on the map.

The license fees are going to be even cheaper come this summer.

I was a cooler guy for years... upgraded to a fridge last year and in the year I have had it it’s paid for it’s self by not having to buy ice. But I also go out for weeks at a time, and when not out the fridge doubles as a freezer for home use. Compressed air is heavier than an air...

I disagree that there shouldn’t be testing involved for amateur radio. As for time to study... 1 hour a day for 5 days isn’t that hard to do... if a guy like me can get his General than any one can... upgrading to extra is a little harder and a lot more time involved in studying. If you had...

If you’re not going to go ham, the 40 watt version might have a better chance of hitting those repeaters over the 15 watt version. Remember that most GMRS repeaters are private, and out here in the Northwest public repeaters are scarce. Just check the repeater networks where you will be...

That looks like a sweet rig Jon, from the quick googling I did... it looks like it would kick the pants off my IC-7100.

um I’m pretty sure on the opposite side of the snake River up in hells canyon is Idaho... hells canyon is inside the Wallow-Whitman (Wallowa-Whitman National Forest - Recreation) to the north east side boundary, Pendleton is to the west by 20 miles of the Wallowa-Whitman inside the Umatilla...

I found out about an online adventuring ham radio club that fits in nicely with overlanding. They are j to doing SOTA, POTA, LHOTA, IOH, as well as DXepeditions. For those of you that don’t know any armature radio acronym that ends in OTA means On The Air. So SOTA is Summits On The Air, POTA...

No... your VA card is not an access pass..you must have the proper documents to either take into a National Park (and hope due to Covid 19 they issue you the card) or go to America the Beautiful - National Parks & Federal Recreational Lands Passes | USGS Store and get your pass.

Also if this is the case, since Wallowa Lake State Park, Cathrine Creek State Park. Nez Pierce Trail national monument, Minum State Park, and Emigrant Springs State Park are all inside the WWNFS boundaries... how come are they listed separately? Again I revert back to what the Director for the...

So that point is also very specific... so... if I can activate a NF. Does that mean I can get a POTA for walking out my back door? According to Gaia Wallowa-Whitman owns all the land between Pendleton, Oregon and Idaho.

My Home Depot axe works just as well.

This would be the best solution any ways.
