    Best tablets for navigation?

    I've mounted/used both the 9.7" iPad and the iPad mini in my LC. The 9.7 is great but I prefer the smaller size of the mini.

    Should I go dual or just 2m?

    Jr Explorer - What up? ON topic... most of the WIN SYSTEM repeaters are 440 which as we know is a fun way to reach out and touch someone. Dual band all the way and as I said before the cost is negligible between them.

    Best Offroad GPS unit

    haha that's pretty funny...I'm assuming by your statement that you're not up-to-date on tablet technology, or Lowrance for that matter. The buggy 540c is gone and replaced. Lowrance makes a fine product if I was say fish finding, needed some radar or even ocean going navigation but for 4x4...

    $40 BaoFeng UV-5R Dual-Band Handhelds

    Mine doesn't have an extended battery. Bottom line is that it's cheap and corners were cut. I feel like I got good value for my 40 bucks but it's not a vx8.

    $40 BaoFeng UV-5R Dual-Band Handhelds

    I have one. It's not nearly as well constructed as my Yaesu hand helds but for $40 it's expendable. The programming is difficult with out software/cable. There is no external DC port for power or charging (must use the base charger) No instruction manual for operation is included.

    Should I go dual or just 2m?

    Best tablets for navigation?

    Check my sig for links to my blog related to iPad as nav. Apple has many software vendors with quality nav apps. Android really only has one, BCN.

    What app to cache or download satellite maps

    Can you be clearer? NO map meaning no maps whatsoever or no SAT maps (discussed here)?

    Stolen from ROBRED

    Jeff you're giving me props in two forums - appreciate your feedback and I'm glad the project I did, inspired you. You really took it another level with the use of the original plastic cover used as trim. :bowdown: Wasn't an option for me as I previously thought switches mounted to it was a good...

    100 Series Suspension

    IIRC those numbers make it a 4600 series Heavy Duty. If you have stock control arms you can lift using the 4600's. I have OME 860 rears with OME torsion bars ~ 2.5 inch lift on my 100. I have the 4600 series shocks. they work fine.
