The Golden Triangle (Beaumont, Port Arthur, Nederland)

Anyone...

 

This actually makes me feel a lot better about it knowing that's what you have.

 

I always keep a parachute flare on me when on trips lol.

 

Too high fluten for my taste

 

I'll just tie my message to a rock and throw it in a random direction..........someone will get it, eventually.

 

You got to get on the trail first Oscar

 

I have to get money first

 

Ordered new ball-joints from Headstrong......hopefully they get here by the weekend.

 

FYI, non-radio related, going to Gilmer with Brother in law, father in law, and a friend with a Jeep on Saturday.

Just gonna do easy trails, as this is their first time, and my friend's Jeep is stock. Anyone is more than welcome to join us on Saturday, we'll be on channel 16 or 19 (whichever isn't busy) on the walkies.

 

Tempting,
Went to lunch with 4Runner Joe and started talking about tepui tents. We are now on our way to Oklahoma to look at some. That escalated quickly

 

@fajitas21 i have an old bumper off a jeep you can have. It has some damage on the front but I think it can be fixed. You can have it if you want.

 

I think i'll take that. Thanks!

 

Anyone watch xoverland?

 

That like a 7k trailer?

 

Might be more expensive

 

Negative, this one is the one on the show and has to go back to them. The bare trailer is 9,995 tent is 3200

 

:heartattack:

 

Where you camping .. I'm down

 

I'm not 100% sure on that yet Red. The group is kinda figuring it out at the moment, it's possible we will arrive at Barnwell late Friday and camp there. If so, we'll go for that place we had last time. We'll play it by ear. Should be there roaming around by round 9am ish.

 

Used this article:

Built this in about 20 minutes:

That's Ford yelling in the background, and someone from Kirbyville talking on the HT.

Here's how far that is:


Wow, it freaking works great.

Now I can build a GMRS 1/2 wave antenna like this, stick it up on the pole, and I should be able to easily hit anyone in the OHV park from where we camp. Total cost? $15...
