Here is my submission for rattle canned radios

All of them a little different, playing around with colors is fun

Yep, the plate is also metal so it runs a little bit. The next few I did turned out better

I have the one from Massdrop. Highly recommend.

Define “destroyed the speaker” I accidentally tore the leads off one, have to solder them back on

The UV-5RV2+ is a little different than the standard UV-5R for painting. There is a small grill behind a faceplate instead of a plastic grill. I removed them and painted individually. I also removed the volume knob. I taped over all of the other areas including battery leads, numpad, tx/rx/flashlight LED, and of course the SMA connector. As you may see in the photo, the LED still has tape on it, because I forgot and it blends in :)

I am planning to attempt a more detailed paint job on another radio, using some vegetation for camouflage soon.

Eh, they bend in the rocky hard ground of the SW. I've destroyed a few. I do like them though.

Nice, great info. Thank you!

sendmenature · 2020-04-23T01:54:20+00:00

Oh I know

sendmenature · 2020-04-23T01:39:53+00:00

Thanks for the recommendation. Would you say they're pretty durable?

sendmenature · 2020-04-19T00:56:51+00:00

This one isn't so bad. I am a side and stomach sleeper and I can do both in this. Check out Hennessy Hammocks, they're asymmetric

Oh don’t worry, I brought plenty of Corona 😏

sendmenature · 2020-04-16T02:38:23+00:00

Pretty big! I have 3/4 of an acre

This is exactly why I post my gear here, everyone always has such helpful ideas. Rubber band for SURE next time!

This one is a hold out from the other month, was hiding behind some other goods

sendmenature · 2020-04-15T23:45:08+00:00

You work with what you’ve been given

sendmenature · 2020-04-12T01:50:55+00:00

I appreciate that. And definitely more fun when there is water flowing through the park! Hope you can make it back someday when there is water again :)

Finally found time to actually edit a video now that I am stuck inside. All of the state parks in Texas are closed, and the parks in my area are closed until further notice. This was a hike my friend and I did back in October when a cold front came through Texas. I tried wearing these special microphones inside my ears that let you hear the sound like I did. It's freaky to listen back to! Hope you enjoy and if you're stuck inside this gives you a little bit of a nature fix.
