    Communications

    Re: Communications I've been a ham for a number of years. Ham gear is great but ex-mil turns my crank and is much more rugged. Besides my portable and manpack HF sets, this is my current base station transceiver. It's a ITT MSR8000D ... 1.6 - 30 Mhz. Works perfectly. There are four main...

    Oshkosh 2010

    Re: Oshkosh 2010 The theme of the 2011 EAA AirVenture in Oshkosh is "A Century of US Naval Aviation 1911-2011". Link to info on the show HERE. Should be another great year ! Check out the EAA video links under the "multimedia" tab... the Warbird section. Some amazing stories there.

    Oshkosh 2010

    Re: Oshkosh 2010 Anyone headed to Oshkosh July 2011 drop me a note and maybe we can have an eyeball. The aircraft are great... but meeting the "original" ww2 aces and aircrew is a rare treat... and they won't be around much longer.

    Re: Trainee Flash Bang Fail Back when flashbangs were all seperating submunition types (anyone remember the old AAI Thunderflash or the Kilgore?) it wasn't all uncommon to get chased down the stairs by one <grin>.

    DownEast -Frame-Problem! Update.

    Re: Down East -Polymer Alice Frame-Anyone use one?? I'm a masochist... but I changed out my ALICE kidney pad and straps for a MOLLE II kidney pad and MOLLE II shoulder strap set-up and actually like it very well so far. But I'm using a medium ALICE Radio pack and likely less weight.

    Hope the SOB burns in hell!!

    Re: Hope the SOB burns in hell!! (sigh...) Why doesn't this surprise me. Until we start altering the gene pool of these half-wits we can expect more of the same from them. Next time maybe a child ?... In my experience those that abuse animals also abuse their children.

    I screwed up, or did I?

    Re: I screwed up, or did I? Frequently a step out is a step up. Why is it that many employers these days treat hardworking employees like cattle and kiss the ass of every slacker in sight ? I guess it's trendy not to have any employer/employee loyalty these days... I discovered at an early...

    Photos 43" Muskie

    Re: 43" Muskie THAT looks like a Wisconsin Muskie...maybe around Hayward ? The only other fishing disease I've noted that gets a guy as jacked as Musky is native Brown and Brook Trout in spring fed streams and rivers. That and Steelhead in the Brule in the early Spring.

    Lost one of my GSD last night

    Re: Lost one of my GSD last night When things like that happen unexpectedly it's extra tough. As I type, I'm looking at my two retired 13 year old GSD's laying at my feet... I can imagine how devestating it will be when their time comes. I'll say a prayer for you and the family and the pups...
