    B Pillar NMO Mount

    Had a similar Comet brand on the rear door of my t4r and didn't care for it. It could not handle the flexing weight of the 2/70 antenna. Comet did replace it no charge tho. Sub'ed for new ideas.

    OR heated Mitts vs OR heated gloves.

    Gerbing and Warm and Safe make not so bulky 12v motorcycle gloves. I have tested both and not much difference between them. Do keep the controller dry. When hunting (read no 12v) I prefer mittens. Fingers next to one another are warmer. IBA 433

    Tablet or Garmin, what's your poison?

    Thanks, I don't have that one, but several others I have used over the years. I'll be sure to give it a test drive. I can manage to set up a route/wpts in most of programs and pull them into the zumo easy enough but without a complimenting map set in the Zumo the data just shows up on a blank...

    Tablet or Garmin, what's your poison?

    Many of you here speak of highly of Garmin GPS. Please school me on which Garmin models you are using? I have many, many motorcycle road miles under my butt with Garmin Zumos aboard because they are smallish and waterproof. Mapsource and nowadays BaseCamp (damnit) are/were the route making tool...

    A good Android based tablet for GPS navigation

    Nexux 7 32g, Lido ham cup holder mount married to a ram 7" tablet holder and a Gaia app. Rock solid. I can reach it well and the gps works without fail mounted low (relatively) on the console.

    2m or 2m/70 cm mobile receiver

    No, I didn't mention cost specifically, only that I have a chance to buy either, used. We both know one is going to be a bit spender than the other and being the thrifty, well ok, tightwad that I am, I just can't see spending for a feature I might never/won't be using. :) Unless you have one...

    2m or 2m/70 cm mobile receiver

    Thanks for the detailed explanation. Way more stuff to think about that's for sure and I do already have a 2/70 antenna. I am still smokin' on my choice but I keep coming back to complexity. I like simple. Btw, which Kenwood do you have?

    2m or 2m/70 cm mobile receiver

    That is something to consider.

    2m or 2m/70 cm mobile receiver

    In my mind things are not equal. There is differences in cost and complexity. The Ham clubs north and south cite 2m as the one with the most activity but then again this is a rural area. This will be a mobile rig and I don't see myself sitting in my truck outside the house talking. This...

    2m or 2m/70 cm mobile receiver

    I am in the East. Southern Appalachia actually. Where Tn, GA, and NC meet. I wheel in the mountains of all three states. I would like to know which is more likely to be used in my area, a 2m or a 2m/70cm dual receiver. I have a opportunity to buy either radio, used. TIA Sent from my XT1254...

    Battery charger

    Thanks for the tips. I happen to have an old battery here I think I might be able to save. I am not going to tote it with me to play with though. Shore power it is!
