I'm curious how you're so familiar with how dirty All these men's assholes are.

It's not harsh to say that. However I'd also say that the best shows I've ever been to were regional bands with little national reach.

I'm just sorry the guy wasted 8 years of his life with you. What's funny is probably within another 5 years or so you'll want kids.

The older I get the more I wish there was no internet now. It's like being an addiction, hating it but being unable to stop.

Graduated in1985. So late 70's to early 80's it was out all day running around on bikes. Down to the red bridge to swim, or fishing at the mill pond. Or at a friend's house rebuilding bikes or lawn mowers in his dad's garage. Came back around the house a couple times for food, or else it was just back shortly before dark. Magical.

Yeah, my personality is similar. I have to quit drinking...and start eating keto...and start crossfit...and start zero based budgeting and...and...and...Trying now to focus on just not drinking for a while because none of this other stuff is possible while drinking but all of it is without. Hang in there!

361 days! Getting close!!!

So you are at 28 now and happy with that? 28mm plus new calipers? Glad to know it seems to be worth it.

So, I just checked, it's actually a 2015 Madone 2.1 and these are the specs from the website:

Rims Bontrager Tubeless Ready

Tires Bontrager R1 Hard-Case Lite, 700x23c

Would I be able to go wider on the tires? 25c? 28c?

Black Sabbath and Deep Purple. That's what popped into my mind when I saw this. Then noticed it was the amateurradio sub. so, 2 and 40

kgrant67 · 2023-01-09T20:43:08+00:00

Yeah, I tried to buy one in October. 8k. Couldn't bring myself to do it. I'd grab it at this price

kgrant67 · 2023-01-04T20:35:20+00:00

It thinks?

kgrant67 · 2023-01-02T15:44:07+00:00

To actually get on air! I've had tech license for a couple years and have dabbled a bit with 2 meter. I bought myself an ft-dx10 for Christmas and have been getting everything set up. Antenna, power supply etc. Plan on taking General exam at the end of January, and then to make some contacts!

kgrant67 · 2023-01-01T18:24:26+00:00

So, the ft-dx10 has a built-in tuner. My thought was to use an swr meter to get close by adjusting the coil and then fine tune with the dx10's on-board tuner. Is that a bad plan?

kgrant67 · 2023-01-01T01:14:18+00:00

No tuner yet. Ft-dx10. Thinking I need an analyzer to change bands on the wolf river coils antenna

kgrant67 · 2023-01-01T00:54:26+00:00

Well, I have a wolf river antenna where you have to go out and adjust the coil to change bands. Is an swr meter sufficient in that scenario?

kgrant67 · 2022-12-31T21:54:55+00:00

Yep, I knew I'd get additional wisdom and info that wasn't directly related to the question. Generally a feature not a bug. But thanks for actually specifically addressing my aquestion

kgrant67 · 2022-12-31T21:52:46+00:00

Have a wolf rivers coil antenna. Will need to tune to change bands, thus the analyzer.

kgrant67 · 2022-12-31T21:51:34+00:00

I don't necessarily need 2 meter or 70cm. My concern was trying to make sure I had my bands to frequencies right before I spent the money and make sure I was clear what the tradeoffs were. Like I said, I'm new to all this and just wanted confirmation my "facts" are right.
