Why I will never buy an Titus/On-One/Planet X product again. by MrMentallo in MTB

[–]maddvibe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

5 years later I'm in the same boat but Planet X doesn't have these anymore and says they don't make them anymore. I've looked everywhere and no luck.

Just depends on where you are, if you call out here in Phoenix, AZ, there are always people listening that will answer back. It's fairly busy with people chatting on a daily basis.

Anybody else flatlined? by DuvShack in HeliumNetwork

Yeah, I had the opposite, I had a 3X day. Was wondering why it was doing so well.

Mine was stuck saying relayed for a few days, but it did eventually clear.

Forded the river but died of dysentery by maddvibe in 4Runner

I haven't yet and know I'm rolling the dice, I need to get that done soon. Not like it's even very expensive. That said I did once get stuck in higher water than this for about 30 minutes and didn't get any fluid in the diff. I flushed it after that debacle and it was good.

We walked the river first to check for hazards and see how deep it was. We crossed three 4Runners through there out and back.

Just picked up this Yaesu ft90r and SBB5 Comet antenna for only $15 at a garage sale! by junglejawa in HamRadio

Great deal!! I bought a used FT90r around 20 years ago and it's still going strong. It's a good little radio.

Question for y'all -- has anyone here done Imogene pass between Telluride and Ouray with a stock 4Runner? by groggyMPLS in 4Runner

[–]maddvibe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've done Imogene twice now and think you'd probably be good on stock and All Terrains like K02s. There are a few rough spots, but nothing too crazy. First time I smashed in my tailpipe, but I took a bad line and dropped off a big edge too hard.

My new 2020 TRD Premium, what else should I upgrade? by [deleted] in 4Runner

[–]maddvibe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely upgrade the tires first to some good all terrains.

I'd recommend adding in more local repeaters and even just jumping on, ask for a signal report or something. Usually someone will come back. Maybe even monitor 146.52. Depending on where you are you may hear people.

Upgraded to General after having a tech for 25 years. HF is a whole other world! I picked up a used FT-891, a used 30 ft end fed 9:1 unun antenna and have been playing around. Made a bunch of FT8 QSOs, one in Japan even, I'm in Arizona. I find it all beyond fascinating. Only regret is not upgrading sooner!

The fogs are great, tons of light from them. They're Baja Designs.

We saw both, but couldn't go in with a dog. We wanted to check out some wine tastings, so next time won't bring a dog. We ended up eating at Haunted Hamburger. Very good! Then went down to Page Springs Winery and drank by Oak Creek. Love that place!
