2 days and counting! Fj40 got new speedo( now its only 10mph off lol) gear new 4wd shift knob as well as new fan duct trailer wire corrected just after a rebuilt F motor cleaned up fuse holders and 3rd eye brake light. so its ready for this weekend
 
My FJ60 idling again, but I’m not confident I figured out the issue so I’m not trusting it for the trip. Maybe if I get some miles on it and can recreate and diagnose the issue I’ll be able to swing it.

That is exciting when everything comes together.
I don't have ham (yet...) but my 40 is a GMRS capable vehicle, not sure if that is an option.
I have 2 GMRS that I plan on using, that honestly I am still trying to figure out hot to use, I think that I posted a ham frequency but yes we will be using GMRS

What channel/freq on GMRS if we have landed on one (or two)?
 
Isn’t GMRS all like 400+ mhz? Thought 146.xxx was ham. But I am not an expert.
 
You probably have more experience than I do if there's a frequency that you are already on we can use that one

No, I have only FRS which requires no license, as ham and GMRS do, though no test for the latter. FRS are like walkie-talkie cheap little radios with not much wattage but probably suffice for this type of use if the group mostly sticks together…line of sight (-ish).
 
Oh I have forgotten that there will be a couple "iron butt" awards. George Vescovo gifted the podcast a couple of Vescovo Marketing yeti tumblers that I have been holding onto and I figure I will give out a couple tomorrow

channel 15 frequency 462.550 if that sound ok with every one else. It isn't too late to come it is a super relaxed event the trails shouldn't be very hard so it won't tear up your vehicles. Although you 80 series drivers might think it is a little too tame
 
I look forward to meeting everyone! This’ll be my first CSC outing.

So I am still planning on meeting at the dirt adjacent lot to the McDonald's this Saturday morning. I was just thinking of Box Canyon. It is closer than Cocheran although not by much or should we just stay with cocheran
McD’s in Florence, right? On Hwy 79?
 
On my way! Haven’t driven this rig except for to barrio beer, in quite a while, and already overheated once. Remedied that but running about 15 minutes late! Just let the day heat up a little bit. Air-conditioning is out in this rig as well so I’m paying for it myself! Phone number is 520-369-9663. If there’s anything to be texted I’m good with that. Don’t have ham radio license so not up on the 400 MHz frequency today.
