NW WA Meet / BS Thread

good luck my insurance is a pain in the ass to do it with

 

Ya same.... I need the receipts for everything..... hahaha most of the things on my truck are used.... shhhhh. Damn progressive

 

Scared this fucker off last night

Bears don’t like 10.5 AR’s going off next to their feet


He’s apparently retarded though cause i scared him down at the neighbors place this morning. Of course i did not accelerate to 40 MPH on the driveway and try to hit him

 

zero receipts here or i got stuff at a discounted price.

 

Heading on a night run tomorrow by Snoqualmi pass with one of my buddies with a 4runner if anyone is interested just shoot me a PM!

 

Are you guys using gmrs or cb? In trying to pick out a new radio

 

Pre-ban baofeng

 

Are they really "pre-ban" when you can still buy them the same as always lol

 

I know, they keep selling them but I've seen the FCC documents saying no you can't. Baofeng also has a IP67 waterproof version I might grab.

I'm adding a analog/digital DMR soon. I guess you can set up encrypted comms with it.

 

they’re still selling them? Only reason i bought one was because i was told they won’t be available anymore

still need to pick up a CB for general use

 

ya and I have about 8 of them because of all this

Here is the official notice from the FCC: https://docs.fcc.gov/public/attachments/DA-18-980A1.pdf
And here is the citation issued to Baofeng: https://docs.fcc.gov/public/attachments/DA-18-801A1.pdf
Lastly, here is an article that spells it out, in laymen’s terms: https://hackaday.com/2018/09/25/buy...cowls-at-unauthorized-frequency-transmitters/

 

Wanna sell me one ?

 

The pre-ban baefengs will tune gmrs channels. They were never legal to use on those channels.
Mine will also tune the BNSF frequency but I've never heard anything on it. I will resist the temptation to say "hi" to engineers who must be bored because they don't have to steer.

 

you can still get them off Amazon for cheap.

$50 UV-5R 8Watt UHF/VHF Radio with 2 Rechargeable Battery, Portable Radio for Adults with Earpiece, GV-771 Antenna, Compatible with BAOFENG Programming Cable (3rd Gen)

UV-5R is cheapest and you can go up from there.

Ya, someone mentioned a BNSF freq but my radio's won't accept it. But I can still do all FRS/GMRS and MURS with a detachable antenna.

Check out Mirkit edition Baofeng on Amazon. They get an extra watt of TX power. Not that you need more power rather than a good antenna. But you can tune down the TX power and crank it back up if needed.

 

That dickbag of a bear was out at my place in the middle of the day. Good thing i have some friends who tossed me a few boxes of bean bag rounds. Plugs coming outta the nova, do you think it’s safe to dual wield 12gauges?

 

I think it isn't NOT safe

In for the inevitable duel wild 12 gauge

 

If this shit flies off between Puyallup and Oly don’t @ me. Leave me alone.

 

Least you have it strapped forward-aft so its not trying to flip in half like most people who put mattresses on top

 

I drove going 70 down I5 for 4 hours.

Why is my matress permanently bent ?

2017 TRD OR is this a recall ?

 

These discount RTTs are getting outta control
