Were you at Ft Gordon?

Quite well. It’s solid for simplex at line of sight. No problem in a convoy. You’re not going to hit distant 2m repeaters, but I have other antennas for that.

IKR. I have three on the roof.

I used this one for the low profile and very broad bandwidth.

Not abandoned, but cool. Over the Green River at Flaming Gorge, Utah.

Replaced the 2.5 pound fire extinguisher with a 5 pound unit with a hose.

I’ve connected with two that way. My wife served after I did. Email and the beginning of social media was around when she was discharged, so she was able to stay connected with many of her mates. She doesn’t understand why I’ve felt isolated from the camaraderie.

I have a small size Sven saw. It's very compact to store and awesome to use.

I've had that kind of arrangement in the past. If you think about it, you transmit very little compared to listening time. My current rig has three roof mounted antennas, but I'd consider a cowl mount again if I had a roof rack.

You bet. these are a couple of Army vets I've adventured with already. Great guys.

I went on to university, then house and family, career, etc., etc. It was only after all that was going along that I realized something was missing. I found a veteran's post, and was instantly at home.

@Tex.Proud @Beretta4x4 Psst, hey guys, check out the video in the first post then the rest of the YouTube channel. Cool stuff!

Leave the coax in place. you can use it when you can your ham ticket.

Exactly. I wanted to find the episode again and make a comment. It hit home for me after 25 years.

Your antennas are too close together. Transmit on one radio is overloading the receiver front end on the other. Ideally they need to be as fas apart as possible. That's hard in a mobile condition. Try separating the antennas by 3 feet, and see what happens.

I cant find the episode again where Billy, I think, mentioned the shock once he was dischaged, and the sudden loss of his support system.

I'm starting at the beginning of your episodes. The teardown and reconstruction is starting. what a challenge!

That and Black Gap are on my list. I just confirmed I have an interview at 9am tomorrow, so next time!

What’s your itinerary?

perfect spot to catch a dropped 10mm socket. ask me how I know. Lol.
