Lol

 

+ $25 shipping, I should message the seller and see if they have a hacksaw.

 

Lol tell them all you really want is the runners and the flange, if they could cut those off and shove it in a flat rate box/envelope that would be greeaaattt. Thanks.

 

Exactly and it’s shipping from Seattle. Lol, anyone on here just instal a super charger in the last couple weeks?

 

I did from 86 - 89; ironic that you ask that as executive manglement states "we are a technology company" yet there is still that military hierarchical feel...

 

I've been watching Red Green lately. I'm not sure if I originally saw him on tv in Canada or if it was when I lived in Bellingham and we got a couple Canadian channels there. He's been going for a long time! Still touring doing his act!

 

I was no shit wearing this when I read your post this morning.
Could it be?

 

You don't talk funny enough.

 

I still have mine from when I installed my supercharger

 

They can't use CB frequencies. CB is 27MHz which is too low for Baofeng. Also I think CB is AM and the Bao is FM?

 

i know @scollins can clarify. I have a baofeng that can function as a walkie talkie

 

I believe walkie talkies and CBs are completely different frequencies. A baofeng can function as a walkie talkie but not a CB.

 

I’m far from an expert. But Baofengs run on 2m and 70cm frequencies, and CB is like 11m, so not possible at all.

 

I haven't been over in that area in a few months, but i'm guessing gallagher is a long way from being reachable. I barely made it past the beginning VanEpps on memorial day weekend a couple years ago...

 

Ya my buddy has cabin In that area, I shot him a text last night and he said it was a definite no go

 

correct, I've sent some people instructions on how to program all the FRS/GMRS channels into the radio using the CHIRP software. Pretty easy. But I have not successfully got the privacy/CTCSS codes to work. Some of us were up in the snow one day and we could hear another group using Motorola's on channel 7 but we couldn't talk back to them. Still trying to figure that out.

plug radio into usb port
launch CHIRP software
Radio menu>Download from radio
File menu>Open Stock Config>US FRS and GMRS Channels
Radio menu>Upload to radio

that's it!

 

I have used my baofeng to send/receive walkie talkie signals. Weird situation a couple weeks back, a friend of mine also has a baofeng and could get his to send on channel 8 but could receive, my baofeng would receive but not send on channel 8. Then we tried another channel, I think 6 or 7 and it was more of the same. Then we tried channel 5 and all baofengs and walkies could send\receive. Not sure what was up with that but was nice to find a solution out on the trail.

I need to order one of those programming cables...thought mine came with one but i guess i ordered the wrong package.

 

yes please! i'll pm you

 

Looking to see if there is a team member on here that knows how to rebuild a set of fox 2.5 coil overs. I have the oil, and can get the rebuild kit; just dont have the proper tools... please direct msg me if interested!

 

There are a couple members that do whom I'm sure will chime in soon
