    Ran 124 on the "abandoned" section between the gates from SR 541 up to TR 159, then I went up further up the open section of 124 to 158 and messed around at this off road area, then came back 158 to 124, and south on 124 all the way back across 541, between the trailers, and then continued on down to 123. That end isn't anything great.

    Yeah the guys at tar hollow said you don't want to run a daily driver there unless you want to tear it up. Motor trend went there this year for ultimate adventure

    Exactly. Pretty much everyone has a caged truck on 37s or up

    Finally got the rest of my parts in to finish my suspension. Assembled them at work today, super slow day. Installed after work, nothing too crazy since it was already taken apart. Finished my CB install the other day, so I took her for a test run down the interstate and I am satisfied, for now.
    My antennas (yes plural) make the truck look goofy at best, but hey I paid extra money for my plate to say "OLD TACO" so obviously I good with goofy. Pictures coming soon when I get some light out, or maybe it's best kept a secret.

    On another note I'll be driving back and forth to Columbus(Westerville), for the next 4 days. Anything I should look to drive down anywhere between Columbus and Massillon? Besides the obvious highway 30 and I-71.
    Maybe I'll slide down through Danville area again on my way home one day?

    Ok good read, I have all that but obviously the truck isn't wide enough, but it doesn't really say why they have to be at least 5 feet apart, only that it "won't work properly", and it makes my range not so much round and more oval which seems to be great for interstate travel the way it looked.

    The reason for multi-antenna installations is to increase range in the direction opposite the axis the antenna's are installed in. Common in semis to increase range ahead and behind them on the interstate where the bulk of their time is.

    Your setup, assuming good install and tune, will work great. You just won't realize the full potential of the arrayed antenna that you would at optimum spacing.

    Hey @Tretiak30 , have you ever mounted anything to the top of that Allpro back rack other than a RTT? Since the tent is far off for me right now, and im not getting a cab rack anytime soon, I was thinking of getting some bar mounts to mount a case or two to the top of the rack.

    Been looking for any quality bar mounts that I can use to attach things like a case.

    No. I am sure you can find a way to mount a Yakima or Thule or something to it. I know four treks make tube bar mounts for all sorts of the things

    Something like that, I'll try to have my shit ready by then.

    As for the first weekend of Feb, I'm contemplating doing Wellsville instead of SOR. I've been wanting to explore the area for a while and it's in roughly the same place, yet instead of being a park it's just a big area for exploring n shit. If I do this, I'll likely leave early Sunday morning and just make a day of it.
