Nice work both of you..just used my compost bin too but mine had been there about four years ha ha!..I normally manage to get compost in about a year, no idea what took this mix so long to rot down, my mix of green and browns was maybe off I guess, but, I got a nice pile eventually and it starts again 😀😆
Nice vehicle, would you consider 4wd, really makes a big difference , with 70 /30 tyres so their good in all terrain but also quite on the road, just a suggestion, keep up the good work 👏
Thanks for doing that Chev, very interesting to see. Yup, less stuff than I imagined lol..how’s the road noise by the way after taking all the panels etc off?..appreciate you giving us a look, given me a couple of bits that are food for thought 👍
This looks brilliant do you have the model number for this aerial on eBay also does it need to be swr in before use only asking as I’m new to this thanks
I was with you Chevvy until you said ‘as long as the suns out’..the what now?..that’s me knackered lol..joking aside, I have the solar panel too, awesome and would like another couple 😀👍
New to this hobby and new to this channel, a most excellent tutorial on creating this dipole! I wonder, being a total noob, would the reception/transmit be hampered if the 2 elements were completely enclosed with pvc pipe and pvc endcaps? I just thought it would be cool and mysterious to have it set up like that🙂 Gratitude for your work here, much appreciated. Subscribed!
@@kentprepper6392 which particular I meant, top flap looks old and the glimpse is brief lol, mines a modified Longback and iirc the tag was '04 on it so newer than yours I think.👍 and thankyou for the reply.
Excellent Chevvy mate!…I call that a win..I’m amazed a man of your calibre didn’t have a pair of clogs though 😂…just cable tie it to a water pistol and job’s a good’un ha ha.. well done and thanks for sharing my man 👍
For a centre frequency of 464Mhz, the middle of the GMRS band in the USA, each element would be 15.372 cm or 6.052 inches long. The length ISN'T hyper critical, if you made it 6 inches long, it would change your centre frequency to 468Mhz. You'd still get a usable SWR at 462Mhz, which is the bottom of the GMRS band. I wouldn't use steel rod though, as it's fairly poor in it's ability to radiate RF, use copper tubing or aluminium for the best results, but cheap welding rods work very well aswell. Make it, try it, remake it, until it works.
Great shot! Around 1990, I was in Drums Platoon 1st Battalion The Queens Regiment. We played a drums display and Beating Retreat on the grass just in front of the castle. My job was to lower the flag in the turret when we played the Last Post. Great times.
Not like you to not buy owt Chevvy ha ha..and I’m now intrigued to what it is you’re saving for….hmm…enjoyed the video both of you and enjoy the ration packs N 👍
