node questions w/yaesu 7800 Okay, so I've got the 7800 installed on the 80. When I use a local repeater/node to connect to a node far far away once I'm linked with the node must I enter the node code every time I transmit? Or can I transmit as if I'm just using the local repeater? Also...

2m/440cm install Well I just finished cleaning up most of the install. Here's what I came up with. Thanks to all the info on Mud I knew what to expect as this is a common setup among the 80 crowd. Here's where I put the radio. It's above the driver side rear wheel well. This way it doesn't...

Let Christo know you want one - if he has enough interests he may bring over a container. Maybe start a mud thread? Here's a couple pics with the fridge... view through the passenger side sliding window plenty room for a 45... and the slide is fully functional.

Robbbbbb, If you want a new project or something new to look at - keep your 80 and buy the 60. If you want to revive your love of the 80 - throw a diesel in it. In other words keep the 80 :D

My radio install should be complete tonight. It's operable now, I need to mount the face and speaker as well as hide the wires. I hope to access a node today. Hopefully I'll be able to join you guys sunday...

great work Mark. Hiding the wires are so worth the work IMHO. It looks very clean with a more factory appearance. :clapsmile

These are all great questions that I've wondered about ever since I got a fridge. I've camped in the eastern sierra's a couple dozen times and I've never seen a bear. Not to say they're not out there, I'm just lucky or not lucky depending on how you look at it. I'd just try to keep a super...

Some good info there Kurt. May I request a picture of the in cab stuff?

another place to get it from is Paul May of www.equipt1.com It might not be on his site, but you can call him.

wow, that is clean! What a classic. :bowdown:

Scary. Glad they're going to be okay. Things to keep in mind: 1. Don't pass on highway 1 in baja 2. Use a Lock and Roll trailer coupler...

I used a floor mat from the 80 which was perfect.

Ahhhh I see. I was looking at that camp picture wondering what the hell is that behind your fridge. You gonna fill it with crap like I did? :shakin:

I have two can-back uprights and crossbars (to add a 3rd mount for the tent). The uprights hold the crossbar. They're the high profile mounts so they're taller. With a grider/welder you can shorten them accordingly.

Awww man, I just threw away two strips that I was going to put under my can-back. They were low amp draw strips of light that my friend ripped out from his boat. They were a perfect fit for the DC can-back...:oops: Anyway your truck is lookin' bombbizzle...It's really turning out well...

another option is www.winchline.com get the delrin roller fairlead, fire/trail line combo with sleeve...

great trip, and that federale story was hilarious!
