A
special Thank you to Red Ball.
Lou's
genuine U.S. Army Pup Tent.
Dean KK1K uses a URC-4 on 144.250.
Dean came in first place in the Friday night hidden transmitter hunt. Actually he found it twice. Sorry about that Dean.
The
small hidden transmitter is on 3.885 Kcs. The carrier pulses on and off
continuously. The CW ID is intermittent. Dean KK1K used "Peak
and Fade" to find the unit last year in a short time. Peak and Fade
was used extensively during SAR, time consuming but it allows you to find
a downed pilot when you do not have DF gear on board.
1.
Its simple walk- - in a direction and if the signal get stronger keep
walking.
2.
If the signal gets stronger attenuate the signal by collapsing the antenna
or changing
it.
3.
Back pack sets that are frequency agile can tune 2 or 3 Kcs off of the
frequency
to
create attenuation.
4.
Often just grounding the antenna with your hand will provide plenty of
attenuation.
5.
If the signal gets so strong you can not attenuate it, then you are there.
LOOK AROUND.

This would repair those torn canvas radio bags with dispatch.
At the rate this country is going we will not need the NRA hats and we will need more hats with the Red Stars.
I was tempted to purchase the gen set.
Kinda pricey $7000 but in great condition. I used to drop these things(Mules) via extraction chutes and watch em bust up when they hit the ground.
This country is running out of heroes at an alarming rate. We have plenty of Rap Stars and Tree Huggers but no heroes.
Some of you will remember the nick name for the heavy coat, it was called the "Horse Blanket" and was utilized by the Army and the Air Force and finally taken out of service in the 1970's.

Just in case you ran out of money in the flea market.
Indian bikes an American Tradition.
Not really made for the PRC-25 or 77 but works, Bob has one on his Mule.
