I've been using an iPad for almost 4 years without incident or failure in your described scenario. iPad 1 for 3 years and iPad Mini for about 1 year. An iPad 1 with Cellular/GPS can be had for less than 200 used. The necessary apps are about 3-10 dollars. You wont be using your delorme in any...

Then there is the misleading thread title... "Shotts' Roklimo is getting restored...lowered...and I might want to trade some parts:" Key word restored but lowered is in the title as well so all bases covered :)

You may have confused folks with "A Luxury Touring SUV with Medium-duty off-road capability." Changing from 863 to 860's wont accomplish the luxury part in my mind... thus the LX suggestion.

Zimm is sorta right... go get an LX470 put some tires on it and call it good. Sell / part the limo.

Exactly

Has anyone actually had any damage from CDL on dry pavement?

Sempertoy - Have you read my FAQ? Just kidding. :) I think most of the info you wanted to confirm has been given. If you see a place where I can improve that FAQ to simplify it I'm all ears. I consider motion X GPS HD to bethe most useable of the available apps but consider trying several to...

No cell plan required. Read my FAQ. You will become an instant guru on this topic :)

The database in Gaia is a nice addition - Mx doesn't have it. I create my POI's and add them to Mx as waypoints. With Itunes you can add and remove them pretty easily. For ease of filing I code them. ie: a death valley waypoint (POI) might be named "DV - Geo Cabin - Cmp" or "DV - MesquiteSpgs...

:victory: Glad it helped.

Yes FM is line of site. But my example of 16 miles, simplex, on a clear day in death valley is real world consistent. There is no question that an optimally tuned CB/Antenna combo can be incredible... but the majority of setups I've experienced are from that. If you want a CB I have no issues...

Good point. I've changed my mind. I'm on Amazon right now ordering a CB.

Fortunately I'm not a trucker. CB is dead. Move on. That probably sounds harsh, but the barrier to entry for ham radio is so low that CB makes no sense. Two weeks ago in Death Valley a group member was talking to me on 2meter from his $40 handheld (external mag mount antenna) at 16 miles...

I have a relay tied to constant power. When in normal mode the ham and the stereo turn off with the key. When the switch is activated power is provided to both without the key. It adds complexity having relays for each power connection but the flexibility / convenience is nice. I've run the...

Yeah we could have a beer-pedition - Dakota (aka CoCoTLC) is known to have tossed a few cold ones back :)

Looking good Vincent. Lets plan something local and get our ladies introduced!

Forester? You missed a few trails :) Glad to meet you and the crew. Let us know when the next run is.

Good Stuff. Makes me want to go back!

Thank you. A few more http://robertredmond.com/personal/death-valley-recon/
