That could also be why I don’t have issue on either band... I build my own antennas to suit my needs...

That would be the Bronco Sport... it’s built on the escape platform... the Big Bronco (as Ford calls it) is built on the 2019 Ranger platform.

Land Cruiser is not part of the Land Rover Family... LCs are Toyota.

concerns for cargo capacity.... yup, that was the only feature I didn’t like about the new Bronco.... disliked it so much I decided it was better to build out my FSB instead of switching to a MSB (FSB=Full Sized Bronco; MSB=Micro Sized Bronco)

That I agree with 100%

Sounds like you need a dual band antenna... I get a solid 1.2 SWR a crossed both 70cm and 2m, without a tuner... however I do need a tuner with my HF rig because it covers 160-6m.

correct... I’ve heard of converting a 10m transceiver to CB, or was it the other way around? But the conversion is an either or, not both. Another thing... 2m on the road is used... I talk to travelers every day from my QTH on either local repeaters or on 146.52... my CBS are set to channel 19...

Prototyping with a 3D printer is a very good idea... how’s the CNC table coming along?

The best catfish I ever ate came from Belton Lake and served up in a restaurant there in Georgetown. I lived in Nolanville, Harper Heights, and Coperous Cove for about 4 years and spent a lot of time at Belton Lake.

SDR might work... but how are you going to run it? What you are looking for is a radio like the Yaesu FTM-400XDR from a company that offers a MARS/CAP MOD https://www.hamradio.com/detail.cfm?pid=H0-014544

I love that hack... also, the T4 Overland model has a heavy duty footprint... and it’s offered for the T4 Plus and the T8 as an accessory. I highly recommend the new footprint

I love my wife’s 4th gen 4Runner with V-8... tows great

As for the Gazelle Tents being a 1 or 2 season tent, I think not... it’s the first tent besides my guide tent that I’m comfortable in the snow with... again due to the tub floor I’m not afraid to run a stove all night in it.

This was addressed with the T4- Overland and the new T4 plus. The Velcro seals a lot better.

We were... sorry no pics... my daughter hasn’t released them to me yet

No problems filling here... I know of at least 6 stations within walking distance from me to fill them... and I’m in a small rural town...

Well it seams that Northerntool messed up... they are $99.00 now.

I don’t recommend the UV5R because for $10 more you can get the UV8R or the GT3p which are 8 watt radios, with a lot better circuitry than the UV5R. Other than that they still work the same as the UV5R... But nothing beats power... 5 or even 8 watts isn’t much better than CB (4 watts)...

@G.Goodwin they don’t have an all in one mic for ham... but... most mics have a minimum of buttons for changing frequencies and memory banks... some mics have more features than others... many dual band radios have a detached face plate, so mounting the radio under the seat and then using some...
