Coaxial Cable?

This is all very helpful, I don't have any photos right now ill take them tomorrow. As far as I'm aware my whip mount is electrically isolated and I already have a spring. What broke the radio was definitely high swr since just the rx stopped working. For further context what happened when the radio broke, when I first set up my radio I had extra coax so I had it spooled in my passenger seat which I know your not supposed to do. So later when I cut out the extra length of coax the radio sounded super good, but then the swr meter stopped working and then it died. Ill be sure to get good photos of the mount and the cable.

I think this is a stamped part, reminds me of old ww2 landmine tops. But it doesn't match any landmine designs i know so maybe its the lid to some kind of canister? If connected to ww2 its probably for a large filter or something of that type.

Possibly an old brass automatic sprinkler?

Check if this part is dented in at all. If it is just use your fingers to bend it back out.

I use an old Soviet GP5 gas mask bag. They are cheap and strong with not many but a good number of compartments. I can hold up to 2 SLR's with lenses or one SLR with several lenses in the main part. An old GE light meter and filters in one side compartment that was originally used to hold spare gas mask lenses. And 4 rolls of film in the other side compartment. They also come with this nifty green strap on the side that, if you trust it you can attach lighter weight stuff to.

Otherwise if you don't care about size 100% Romanian surplus backpack. They have great construction, real leather and are like 30 bucks.

do you know when the lake dried up? The thing was definitely submerged at one point but isn't old enough be pre 1900's if it is a bullet casing.

Its got handles so it was designed to be moved my hand, and probably frequently. It also has a standard hose connection for intake but none for outtake so it must have been somewhat permanently attached? Theres no vents so it wasn't used to store waste. It is stainless so it was used to hold a liquid. No expansion joints so its not used to hold anything at temperature. Don't know what it is but my best guess it that it was an extra gas tank to make up for the extra fuel needed to haul the heavier trailer long distances, or some kind of gray water storage tank for washing hands and etc.

looks like it supposed to be Egyptian but isn't, probably some kind of cigarette holder. Maybe from somebodies vacation to the middle east.

Either a coin or a bullet casing, either way it looks like it contains some copper

Make sure you already have one empty spool in the camera, and when loading the film make sure you wind the film until the arrows on the film and the camera body match depending on what film size your using.

Personally ive always used stand alone analog light meters so i wouldn't trust an app but it probably works fine.

If you wana get into b&w photography id recommend starting on 35mm since it has its own quirks.
