We were down in Tombstone with the girlfriends family. I wasn't allowed to go shot till after dinner so the moon was a bit higher then I wanted but got 1 good shot out of it. This is the raw version, pre-post.

KJ Magnetics are a great place. We use some of their mounting magnets to hold a Kelty Car port to the car. Just used a little bolt to attach a small quick fist and good to go. Its amazing what good strong magnets can do! You say magnet and people think of the cheap ones for your fridge, pull...

I'm waiting on the new Ram mount. Hope it works! I'm a little worried about the flexible arm. Hope it doesn't sag once it starts bouncing around. Even if it sags a bit this looks like the best thing so far. If it doesn't work off-road it will work great in the work truck. Every time it...

Just wait and it will show up. Ive ordered 2 things from them and they took a while but they always show up eventually. It's all heavy hand made stuff. Not cheap stuff stamped out in chain. Mike

I've had a 3g iPad since the day they came out so I've used it on a few trips. Accuracy and connection are good. Usually get an accuracy of around 13 feet. Connecting can sometimes take a bit when in some areas but these are the same areas my USB GPS puck have some problems too. Usually as...

I just used a connector for thru mounting, piece of metal, and a ubolt. I got it mounted up front so it there is atleast some open roof to get some ground plane. I picked my large antenna partly on it not needing a ground plane. I know the little one needs a ground plane, but for my limited...

I use this little guy around town. I have a NMO mount on the roof connected to the roof rack which has worked great. In the city it's plenty to hit all the local repeaters and not have to worry about the height. When out on a trip just unscrew it and put on a nice big boy antenna. I've tired...

Scott, how are you going about mounting it? I love my 3g iPad and it's getting better as the mapping apps come along. I've been holding out for the Ram mount. I haven't even looked around for other option. According to the website the release date is today, but it says "part not in stock"...

Only time I cut down a live tree is when we pick our Christmas tree. Yes with a permit of course :) Where we go most often there is plenty of dead fall around. Helps clean up the forest picking up that stuff. I'm pretty sure no one here is hacking up the forest just cause we have the tools...

I carry both if headed into the woods, but also always have an axe with me. I've got a little 14" home lite. It's the home depot house brand, got it on clearance for like $60. Works good for what I need. Mike

Same here. One for water, one for fuel. It's also a standard tubing size so you can get valves and tubing at the hardware store. Mike

Ive purchased 2 out of the 3 and neither are amazing. Topomaps is ok but downloading quads one by one slow. Also once you download a bunch and have it link them together it starts to slow down. It was ok it one or two but with a whole trip of 30 or 40 it might get clunky. Itopo maps seemed...

I've tried it before and liked it. Only problem I remember is it didn't store maps for offline use. They also haven't updated for the iPad. I use there driving gps app sometimes as well. It is going to be a great platform as the apps get caught up. Mike

Got one!! So far I'm loving it! Actually typing this on it now Haven't tried any topo apps yet. I didn't see any good ones that were iPad friendly yet. I've used route buddy on the iphone with ok luck. They should have a good app once updated Had good luck with my street gps. Accuracy was...

No problem with Safari 4 either! Mike

Is there or can there be an option to get just the relays and controller? I've currently got the National Luma system installed and I believe I'm having the same problems you had. All my heavy cable is nicely done so I have no need for those connectors or cable. I'm ready for a better...

Mine isn't that loose. I think they are set to be just loose enough to allow the seal to break and release any pressure that may have been built up while changing altitude. Just like if you slam the door to your house fridge and the freezer will pop open for a second. Sure I could be crazy...

I wouldn't call it spotty build quality, the quality is just fine. People always complain about the latch being loose, but with them all being loose there must be a reason behind that. Lots seem to tighten them but I haven't seen a reason to yet. You never hear it bouncing open. The only...

How about something like this for a simple running water setup? I usually just put them on the roof rack and use a super syphon with a little ball vavle. Works pretty good but this could be a little step up in coolness. Mike
