AZ BS Thread 4²0

I hope you do not think I was trying to mock you in any way. The situation is more than anyone should go through. I just think any information on training we can get is a good thing.

 

No not at all

I think you are 110% correct - when you need to use it you know how to use it

Its not the time to "figure it out" once youve hit your head and had the wind knocked out of you and your leaking from multiple spots

 

Agua Fria River rose 6 ft, flooding expected to reach Black Canyon area soon. PHX is staring down a mess according the National Storm Center.

 

Yavapai managed to have multiple fire starts and multiple flood warnings today

stay safe out there

 

I'm attaching the script and Situational Awareness Report that we use for Tuesday / Thursday nets on the W7ARA (Amateur Radio) Repeater Networks. It's a good data burst of intel on stuff like that.

 

Thats awesome
I was more active with ARES / RACES back in Flagstaff

Is that net open to the public?

Thanks for sharing

 

PHX air is hot and feeling a little moist. What is going on?

 

As a reminder this net is open to the public and all licensed amateur radio operators are welcome to join the net even if you are just listening in.

 

Absolutely open. Everyone becomes their own first responder in a disaster.

 

Awesome

thank you sir

 

I see you guys alternate between Rim and Metro link, but I didn't see what time the nets start...

 

You get this sorted? I am off work tomorrow if another set of hands is still needed.

 

With age comes the cage. I stick to Side x Side's and wave runners.

Lol this shit is making me rethink getting one of those electric dirt bikes... glad you are OK though!

I think the worst bleed I ever had was thankfully just me being a dip shit and holding the chuck on a power drill with wet hands and giving it a zap in reverse to try to get the bit out. The bit did not come out. My hand slipped. Turns out the side of a spinning carbide bit will carve your finger and thumb open like a Thanksgiving turkey.

 

Ya I got it sorted.. Replaced pads and shoes but couldn't get the ebrake to hold. I adjusted the cable at the handle and it still wouldn't hold, my guess is the cable needs replaced? He uses it everyday parking on his driveway and the old pads were so far gone it may have just stretched it out and needs replaced.

 

Is this what you were texting me for? We are in Houston waiting for our flight home now. I can help out tomorrow if needed. Idk what all the details are, but could be adjustment at the shoes themselves. Is it not engaging?

 

Yeah, also wasn't sure when you love birds would return. Prise reminded me you have some skills when it comes to the drums. Ill give ay a call and can explain, I honestly think his cable is so far stretched it needs replaced.. Surprised it kinda worked for his but hard to tell if he only engaged it when in park.

 

Been traveling back all day today. Delay after delay.. by the time we get home.. it'll be about 16 hours of traveling. Left Jamaica at 7am Az time this morning.. sitting in Houston waiting for our flight now.

Give me a call tomorrow and fill me in on what's going on. Depending on what's going on, could be cable (easy to replace, as long as it's not seized at the adjuster) and if it is seized.. then it is kind of pain. Might just be adjustment at the shoes (star adjuster) or under the center console.

 

On behalf of the State of Texas (as a Born and Raised Former Resident), you have my deepest condolences for having to touch soil in Houston. Please at least tell me it was George Bush Intercontinental and not Hobby. There are better Greyhound / Trailways stations than Hobby.
