Bridgeport OHV Park Day Trip

If anyone will be coming late and has a CB I will have mine on channel 21 so you can find us.

 

havnt got mine up and running yet. any idea how to tune those little knobs?

 

Awesome. Mine is also set on 21. If I can't make it out on time, because of work. I'll give you a shout when I show up out there.

 

its got two mounts. one could be for an antenna, one for a light. 50 bucks?

 

would i need a seperate adapter piece it get a cb antenna in there and up and running?

 

I have a SWR tuner for the antena. Let me know if you need me to bring it.

 

i dont think that he antenna is adjustable. just that little knob on the cb. what does that do exactly?

 

The antena should be adjustable. The knobs on the front should control the volume, squelch and chanels. I can be at the gas station a little early and we can tune the radio and get you set up. Just be sure you have the antena mount grounded and everything else hooked up.

 

alright ill get that done. what spot do i run the coax into the cab? that little rubber deal under the driver side? and then how do i seal that back up?

 

Here is a link to my install. You have a different unit than me but the concept is still the same. You can run the coax into the cab from a few spots. I used a ruber gromet under the back seat in the middle of the truck and ran the coax under the plastic trim pieces on the drivers side. I cut a hole in the gromet just big enough for the coax. If you need more help PM me so we dont thread jack to bad. Also do a search on here. Some other members have more detailed instals.

I just have a rooftop magnetic antenna. I can put it up when I need it, and lay it in the back when I don't

 

So I'm planning on making it out the 23rd, but don't really want to take the truck. Is there a good place by this shell station I could drop my truck off for the day and hitch a ride with someone? And would anyone be willing to have a co-pilot?


Zombie you have PM

 

You can ride shotgun in my truck. I am not sure of a place near the gas station to park but I am sure there is a place at the park.

 

We will need a cameraman anyway

 

There is plenty of room at the park where you can leave your truck. This way you know it's safe. When you come in the gate, there is a huge parking lot where we can all setup, and air down for the day. You can leave your truck there. Thats where all of the guys with trailers park, while they're on the trails.

 

Tru dat. Maybe I'll actually remember my cameras this time.

Well see that's the thing, I was reading on their website you have to pay for every vehicle that comes into the park and as of jan. 2 every vehicle needs an OHV permit. I don't really want to pay for all that if I'm just going to park my truck.

 

I think they have a park and ride spot. Ill check again on the site. Ive got a shotty riding along with me and hopefully I can get my wife to let me bring our good SLR camera. Maybe we will make the TW banner

 

the primary mission is now to get on the banner, at any cost

 

I will have my SLR for pics.
