KLR's are 20% dirt and 80% street! Worst dual sport of the bunch, (especially offroad) but ok for a simple commute.

:rolleyes:

Yep, me too. In Oly now and dont even know where I can fish let alone go crawdadin' We'd just snorkle for 'em, had alot of fun.

Thanks for explaining it for me. Im aware of what you say, and it could very well be my problem (or part of it) as mine was peiced together from a few diffrent donor rigs, thats why I asked:awesomework: Got mine as a roller w/ a bed full of parts (of which 1/2 were wrong, mis-matched yrs...

Noob Q Whatcha mean by "driveline in phase" exactly? I too have bad vibes @ about 40, and wanna be sure of it when trying to figure out what my problem is

Roger that, Jacob:D:awesomework::beer:

Hip, Ive seen guys use the frame, or run a copper braided "loop" through out the frame for the ground plain w/ decent results Ground wave: CB radio signals are conducted by the ground along the surface of the earth. Ground-wave signals actually can bend around buildings, over hills etc (think...

Jacob, you are on top of it...you caught my "baited" question:redneck: What I meant to say/should have said about the 3 ft...is coil the excess coax at least 3ft apart as to not create a "choke", anyone who's installed a radio knows it can be hard when you got a 2ft cab and 18 ft of coax, haha I...

see our edit times, there are many variables. Im no expert either but its been a daily hobby of mine since 93, both base/mobile. If your looking to talk bumper to bumper then theres no need to worry other than a decent match for the radio's sake. Anyway to each his own, spent so many hours...

ok, funny how a few of my published books say so, but I guess you know best.. you seriously run 9 ft jumpers? LOL, Whats your coax, size, and volicity factor, and how its set to frequency(s)??

You wont like it , but you'd be much better off starting w/ 1 peice of coax, in 3 ft increments (9-18ft will give you the best match provided you dont have a cheap truck-stop special antenna) otherwise , sure it might work...but you'll be lucky to "get out" past your front bumper. I have a few...

awesome pics, almost felt like I was there, haha:awesomework:

you need to find someone w/ a meter, otherwise ch20 and shoot for the highest dead key( in a meterless world on a 40ch rig) if its a fixed whip, you'll have to try and tune w/ the coax. 18' 6" is a good start and usually helps getcha in the ballpark w/ a decent match
