Turning this thread into the Phoenix. Rising from the ashes. Checking to see if Adam is still at Fastenal.

No, I don't have this one. It was just a pic to show the pin holes going in both directions. I would have zero reservations about using that one. It really comes down to using a great shackle. I only use 7/8" pin shackles that have a WLL of 6.5T. Yes, they cost a more, but the peace of mind...

I like ones that can mount the shackle in both orientations.

Ryanmb21, I like your reasoning. Makes sense.

It is the Oz Tent Jet Tent F25. You can get them at http://www.familytentcamping.com/product/F25 Their site: The F-25 sets up quickly, with no assembly and offers you a luxurious 7' stand-up height that is spacious enough for the family to enjoy! No more hunching over and crouching down while...

Love these ideas.

What is your reasoning on going with FR?

I hope someone has some info as I too am interested.

First world problems! This whole site is a first world problem. None of us are doing this because our family lives depend on us spending time in the field to find food or work in emerald minds. When I purchase a product I want it to meet all my needs. If it does not I look for one that does...

I hope you sell this. Sadly the F30 is too big and would not fit in my small jeep.

I never really thought of the military look. To me it was much more Safari camp. Harkening to a time before synthetic fabrics.

That is too bad. Now their competition is looking much better. One of the things I liked the most about Jet Tents was the fact they had a nice olive color. I guess now I'll look at an RV4 or a similar unit from turbo or black wolf. I never even wanted to look at them before.

I was highly interested in an F25 over an RV4, but not if it is not the same color as the RV4. Hopefully, if this is a new color, they are going to offer both colors.

I was looking at Jet Tents and it seems they have changed the fabric color. Can anyone confirm if these are no longer the olive color?

Cool. Now onto the which UV-5R version question. I like the UV-5RC? Thoughts on this new version. Ok, I'm guessing it's new, but don't know.

This comment from an amazon review might just sum it up. "The primary difference in performance between a standard UV-5R and the BF-F8HP unit is the better antenna that ships with the BF-F8HP model. Swap antennas between the two units and suddenly the lowly (but cheaper) standard UV-5R has a...

Ok, I have two questions for the whole Boafeng family. I am a fresh recruit to the HAM world and this would be my first radio as I get my license. 1. Of all the various UV-5R? models, which one is actually the most recent with the latest firmware? I really like the UV-5RC, but maybe there is...

When did ARB come out with Black Ones?

mmaattppo, I'd love to see more details on how you did the 12 to 6 conversion install.
