Time to weigh in again - How to Protect your Tube and Transistor HF Communications Equipment From E1 EMP Pulse. Part 1 Part 2

Wish I'd found this image earlier! :ROFLMAO: From the honestslogans website.

That is weird, because my 980's internal SWR reads 1.5 on ch.40, down to 1.06 on ch.1, so I know it's working. That's a head-scratcher... :confused:

TELL YOU WHAT... maybe NOT the Amish, but I was stopped at a rest stop plaza on the PA Turnpike a decade ago - one of the O-L-D ones, that looks like a stone mansion. There were some MENNONITE girls (elaborate dresses, but with solid colors - pink, blue, & yellow) in there - early 20's I'm...

Hard to beat an old deuce & a half. Quite a few guys have 'em around here in private hands. Check out your local 4WD club or website - you might be surprised to see how many are running around. BIG Army/Navy store about 40 miles south of here always has three or four for sale in his parking...

Been hatin' since 2003!!! Ohhhhhh brudda... :rolleyes: Bus Messages Called Offensive When Read Backwards PROBABLY speaks more, to how OFTEN Pittsburgh drivers check their mirrors. Once every TWELVE YEARS, apparently... :whistle:

The new thread on "edible weeds" got me to thinking about this, so I thought I'd post it here. Two USEFUL - & nominally compact - books for the BoB that the WHOLE family can use, would be OLDER copies of the Boy Scout Handbook, and Boy Scout Fieldbook. I was a 37 year member of the BSA...

In the immortal words of another Bruce... Willis... "Watch out, because she'll do YOU, twice as fast as you can do her!" :eek:

HARLAN Sanders he AIN'T... :sick:

:sick::sick::sick:

Meh... our 4WD Club (like a lotta clubs) actually do most of OUR crawling during the summer. Ch.4 is our club channel, and a couple of us can reach out & PUT 'the touch' on someone. :whistle: When we're up IN the Alleghenies, we'll also be heard a little better with the elevation, as I'm sure...

I have a 980 in my DD, and the SSB is VERY quiet, in regards to background noise. With a KL-203, I talked on it to near El Paso, from Buffalo, NY one sunny fall day. :cool: I run a 949 in my RC, which is primarily an offroad toy. With a steel whip and a small Fatboy, it SWR's @ 1.0, which is...

Can civvies own those? :cool:

With everything ELSE you hafta file quarterly, how do you overlook THIS? For four CONSECUTIVE quarters?!?! :confused:

Great stuff here, for folks who have everything BUT their BoV selected! For the less mechanically-inclined - who'd rather buy than build - this list is for you! A. Kahn Design’s Flying Huntsman 6×6 Paramount Group’s Maverick: S.W.A.T. APC Terradyne Inc. Gurkha Gunner...

My RC is my BoV, but if money were no option, I'd go bigger. :cool: Mercedes-Benz Zetros 2733 A 6×6 (MY personal favorite, because it looks ready for a Pittsburgh winter!)

Possibly the BEST overall site - and Rawles DOES cover COMMS, including Ham, CB, GMRS, and others - is Jim Rawles Survivalblog.com. Because he also knows his limitations, he solicits subject matter experts to chime in, which allows questionable info to be corrected quickly. His archive of info...

I have deduced, from the few words here, that I AIN'T opening that link!!! :eek:

Yep. Because PayPal ruined fleabay.

GOOD question - here's a better image of the unit: Here's from the Powermax website (this model is the one in the middle of the chart) - http://powermaxconverters.com/pm312volt.html Hope this helps!
