Jeez Sean, you told me that you wouldn't tell anybody about this! I don't know what to think! Actually, I don't think I could afford all the gear that this guy has. He has certainly gotten carried away. Towstrap

I'm sure that I shouldn't admit that I have a 5500 watt generator, but no good way to haul it until I find a smallish utility trailer (or one of those neat military Jeep trailers). And I sure wouldn't run it while going mobile. I don't think I could stand the air drag on all that stuff either. My gas mileage is poor enough with what I have already done to my Liberty. Ham radio, like Jeeping, is another hobby that can tie up a lot of time and dollars! And, as long as you (me) stay out of the water with your radio equipment, it will last a long time. Towstrap |

That's actually a SkyWarn vehicle. He goes into area of bad weather and is able to get local readings on tornado's hurricanes and such and can then broadcast long range to news stations so that they can inform their viewers. |
