    Ozark Trail "High Performance" cooler - any good?

    Hey Cam, So cool that a manufacturer watches the forum; don't underestimate how much we appreciate that. Both bottles were from Yards Brewing Company. Small batch stuff. Precious. https://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/450/13450/ https://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/450/13086/ The...

    Adventure Travel Boot Redux

    I did Sharptop Mountain in my Keen Saltzman's a couple of weeks ago and a section of the Appalachian Trail at Mount Rogers in my Topo Ultrafly. Sharptop The wife on the AT being stalked by the infamous ponies... It's so much easier to hike these areas when the weather is fair. I would've...

    STT Pro or ST Maxx????

    I've run the old STT, the ST-Maxx, the S/T, and now have the STT-Pro (that I won here on Expo; thank you, Expo/Cooper). The STT-Pro works the best in GA crappy clay. The ST-Maxx works better on our roads ----- but the difference isn't dramatic like the difference between a street tire and a...

    Ozark Trail "High Performance" cooler - any good?

    We just got back from a 16 day roadtrip. Started out with home-made block ice; had to buy ice only 3 times during the trip. Impressed. Had ice when we got home. Temps ranged from highs of 87 degrees to a low of 28 one morning. I removed the handles and used the slots for cam-straps. Worked...

    Haming it up finally

    I'm usually listening to Cherokee County EMS/SO when I'm driving around unless I'm expecting to talk with someone. I put the box on .52 on the highway or in the woods though. I don't know about the Cumming repeater. Ask Bob Johnson at the Ares meeting. Bob knows everything in the area.

    Ozark Trail "High Performance" cooler - any good?

    Walmart wanted a roto-molded cooler to sell and asked CI to make one... Next question. How long until similar ones pop up for sale? I'd stick with CI-made labels for quality's sake. But you gotta know that China always recognizes a market and hops on it fast.

    CB radio suggestions

    I've fried a couple of Cobra 75 wxst radios by leading group rides and needing to talk a bit. They get hot. Then they don't work well. Then they don't work.

    2m or 2m/70 cm mobile receiver

    2M is much more active but I'd get the dual band. You'll be able to listen to a bunch of EMS in your area on 70cm and know when to avoid a road, etc.

    CB radio suggestions

    I just got one of these: https://midlandusa.com/product/5001zcb-radio/ Runs circles around any of the units with wx (that's what your 2M is for anyhow). Nice mic. Great little radio for the price. $59 at Fry's.
