Baofengs can tx and rx on FRS and GMRS. If you download CHIRP (its free) and have a programming cable you can program it quite easily.

 

Yeah I checked earlier and I have the FRS and GMRS frequencies programmed in there already. It had just been so long since it used it I couldnt remember if they were there.

 

Oh damn, look who showed up for the first time in 8 months.

 

Lmao, Yeah I have been on and off failing college so I havent had much time to spend on the forums. Going to Potts mountain or flagpole tomorrow tho!

 

Ha!

Went ahead and rotated the tires.. One less thing to do Saturday.

 

Just prepared for tomorrow's trail(s)!

 

Man, I miss the wheeling days...
Flagpole Knob, Reddish knob, high knob, shoecreek... be safe to everyone that’s going tomorrow and enjoy!!!

 

On a side note, picked up some A/C Pro at my local Walmart this evening. Family & I have an OBX trip coming up before the end of summer and I’d like to have decently functioning a/c while on my way down there, especially with having my son ride with me. I’m sure there may be a leak somewhere, it’s a 20 year old system almost. But who knows. I’m gonna try to get this stuff hooked up before the end of the weekend and I’ll report back with what happens!

 

I would be leery. I’ve heard a lot of people caution against using those types of kits because it’s easy to pump too much refrigerant into the system and blow seals and whatnot, making it worse. AC is one thing I personally would take to a pro.

 

So y'all are going to trail south to north from the Edinburg side I'm assuming? Or are you going up Woodstock tower road over the mountain to the north entrance and taking the trail south?

 

He lives!!

 

Yeah man.

Edit: Sorta kinda.. Would have been done this weekend anyway.

 

I don't even know!

 

I've never been there before so I have no idea. I assumed someone more knowledgable than I would make that call lol.

 

Nothing to it but to get back into it.

Shoe Creek was a great trail. Some water crossings, fairly large rocks and so on. To bad it's been shut down in the middle (late 2014). New land owner got tired of people venturing off the trail to play on obstacles on his land.

Those quick fix things can work for temporary issues. The ones with the stop leak in them will jack up a system in a heartbeat. Some get lucky, most don't.

Agreed.. but Can be done if you know what you are doing. Would I screw with mine on an older vehicle, quite possible yes. Would I screw with some one else's... No Sir at all.

 

Well I sure as shit don’t know what I’m doing when it comes to AC lol I’m just impressed my 15 year old truck is still blowing cold *knocks on wood*

 

I normally run from north to south because it puts me closer to heading home (2.5hr. drive). Plus, if I feel like messing around Taskers Gap, then I hit that one too.

I'm on y'alls time and dime. Doesn't make a diff to me which way we go. I've already planed for a long day.
