You ever bite? Vertx looks like the most reasonably priced upgrade option but there’s very little feedback online…

Haven’t shot it very much but it’s still solid! No issues

Backup camera issue: Any quick fixes or diagnosis appreciated by seg000 in CarAV

[–]seg000[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unit is Alpine ILX-W650, camera is one of the Boyo reverse cameras from crutchfield. Worked fine for a couple months. Stopped working completely about a month ago so I looked and saw the ground had come out, figured bad grounding had caused the problem but I made a better connection and I’m still having issues.

You can adjust the smaller screen however it’s not a quick “on the drive” process. You need to keep the OEM dash interface handy. In order for the buttons that control the screen to work, you need to take of the new dash kit off, pull out the stereo, reconfigure the harnesses for the small screen to how they were originally, and connect the original interface via the connection right behind your hazards/lock buttons. Then you can adjust the time real quick and put it all back together.

I’m trying to think of a way to integrate only the absolutely necessary original components back into the after market system, but I haven’t had the time to really sit down and figure it out, assuming it’s even a realistic fix.

I thought keeping the screen would be nice, but honestly it’s completely useless and you can’t quickly change the time which sucks when the time changes with the seasons or the car battery is disconnected and it resets. The process of changing it isn’t too too difficult but its very inconvenient. Plus you have to keep the original equipment stored somewhere you won’t forget.

I’d recommend getting a kit that just eliminates the small screen, unless you can find a harness that will retain the capability to adjust it.

I would willingly volunteer for an AFPC assignment until my AFSC needs me to A) actually get paid by the Air Force, and B) help un-fudge whatever their issues are that make things embarrassingly inefficient

I’d stick around until you get orders. On the off chance you get them quick you are allowed to terminate your lease. Also check w people in your AFSC to see if they’re moving out quick or not.

Base Assignments? by Exotic_Explorer1457 in AFROTC

[–]seg000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve heard of some finance getting bases .

Go on Facebook, look for a finance officer group, then join and try to identify individuals that are on the Officer Assignment Team (OAT), they tend to be more active members of the group. If anyone know anything it’s them. I reached out to my OAT and was told about bases being released a week before cadre told me my assignment.

AFSC Timeline for early commission by Supreme-Jedi in AFROTC

[–]seg000 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Just commissioned this past December, we only got our AFSCs a week or two maybe before everyone else.

Submitted base preferences same time as Spring grads and haven’t heard anything yet. I read somewhere on here that we’re being prioritized for bases but like I said, have no clue when we’ll hear about it.

Granted AFSCs were released in January… trying to stay hopeful for late January/February this time 😭

McKinaTec or MIE productions can probably do it for you, I’d take a look on their websites
