    HAM Operators- Post up here

    Got my general class amateur radio license a couple months back and also do GMRS. I have several handhelds, including a Yaesu FT-5DR. Trying to figure out what to put in the new Jeep. Leaning towards a GMRS with ability to listen in on frequencies outside of GMRS. Sent from my iPhone using...

    Starting new build - 2022 Frontier

    Used car prices are so crazy, I sold my Supra for $6,500 more than I paid for it over a year ago (with a repair on the Carfax) and picked ip a new Pro-4X. Not a particularly good photo, but you get the idea. I’m in the field a bit as a biologist, so it won’t be and Uber-off road build, but I’ll...

    Scientific Research Expeditions

    I’m super lucky, this is part of my job (getting out and working with field scientists). It’s easier to do via University research versus state or Fed research. I’ll ask around amongst some of the researchers for links that might help. Here was my early winter:

    Your advice on a Tacoma order to turn into light expo and DD

    The stereo is constantly occupied by Latin pop (got married in Peru) and my old school rap, R&B, funk, and soul never gets a chance.

    Your advice on a Tacoma order to turn into light expo and DD

    At a minimum, the MT might be worth considering. I didn’t like the way the AT shifted. Thanks for your reply.

    Your advice on a Tacoma order to turn into light expo and DD

    Hello all, I’ve left Jeep and have thankfully come home to Toyota (I’ve owned a pre-taco 4x4 PU, Tundra, and two 4Runners). My plans are for light, but frequent off-road (trails, FS roads) and some light overlanding as I’m a biologist that gets to go into the field now and then. The realities...

    Radio shack gave us more $ than BestBuy ($32 more) for an iPhone S4, plus about $30 in coupons.

    Senate confirms REI’s Sally Jewell as Interior Secretary

    ^ well, the good news is that you seem to believe in human evolution. I find there are so many skeptics these days.

    Senate confirms REI’s Sally Jewell as Interior Secretary

    Most Feds in regions are not on rotation. They typically live near or in the environs they are responsible for. Folks like to paint Feds as DC interlopers, but they often come from the locals. I seldom encounter far lefties among their ranks and they usually have a political outlook not too...

    Show us your Toyota 4runner, tacoma or truck.

    I've been largely absent for a while and when I last checked in, I THINK I was still in an Xterra Off-Road. Anyway, times change:

    Mud is pollution

    I sense strong thread drift here. Little talk of mud. Talk of air pollution without regard for what is in the CAA or the whole NAAQS process. Ad hominem attacks, innuendo, mischaracterizations of science and scientists, etc. Mud: good medium for wrastling, but sometimes bad for fish. Roads...

    Mud is pollution

    If memory serves, the rulling says that because the roads in question that were used in logging were a source of silt, which affected salmon, that the logging company needed an NPDES permit. It doesn't stop logging. Someone correct me if I am wrong. Anyway, it doesn't sound like wackiness to...

    Mud is pollution

    While I can appreciate your concern for the environment, I'm not sure these kinds of statements help. Surely not EVERYTHING we do is bad for the environment, is it? I think we run the risk of alienating folks that are concerned about the environment, but are maybe tired of hyperbole. It's a...
