California UTC run, January 16th

[Alex01]

I have a hand held as well for those who are lacking. As you know, I'm going to GMRS.

You haven't installed it yet though, correct?

@Midnight LJR looks like we need to do the MARS mod on your radio so you can talk to everyone. Just make sure that new trim panel is in first.

No, it's still a pipe dream at this juncture. Most of my disposable income is being dumped into an RV that needs some TLC.

I have a hand held now. It will be interesting who gets better reception.

@Indy what channel will you be on? (HAM/UHF)

Off-road frequency ... 146.460. I'll also be monitoring Rubicon repeaters:

146.805 -.600 PL123.0

145.350 (repeater transmitter), odd split to 146.205 (repeater receiver), PL123.0

No way, these savages need to get their licenses.

What!!! You have no excuse. I gave you the lists for test centers.

Ok we'll do the MARS mod on ONE of your HAM radios.

I am working on it! We don’t need to talk about the ham radios, they already know about the doors... shhhhhhh

If you rear end me I can hear your CB. Just beware of my hitch and tube bumper

You may want to remove that hitch though. He is set up for flat towing.

Great I'll add that channel to the memory slot.

My hitch is up tight and square

There will be no rear ending in this group.

You need to do the MARS mod. The cheap baofeng can though.

On my radio it meant removing these two diodes.
