7/23 Big Bear

yeah, throw some sheet metal screws in there and it will be good to go! LMAO! I started to drill with a hand drill but decided i need to do it the right way and get it done with a drill press. I'll have pics when its done.

Went to extract a gent many years back who'd just bought a CJ-7. His recovery points had been tack welded on - the thought being to locate the brackets (chain/hook brackets - were popular before shackles came into vogue) - and then he forgot to drill and bolt.

Needles to say we found an alternative method.

Out of curiosity, does MJR have a standard CB channel? (If not, I'd recommend NOT making it Ch 4 (or 3 or 5))

I'll be in the Forest on Saturday, over on the East side - might listen for y'all.

6 is also a bad channel up in the BB area,always has some guy with a BIG radio trying to keep people off it
I think we use 8 alot and 4
My vote would be go with 8

Channel 8 works for me, If that's going to be the best wave!

The problem with 4 is that everyone uses it. CB radios have very poor Adjacent Channel Rejection (CB's are the McDonald's cheeseburger of the tranceiver world), they don't handle other transmitters 1 channel away (20kC between 3 and 4, only 10kC between 4 and 5).

Whatever you folks pick, I'll try to monitor. My group will all be on VHF.

Did you get some shackles for that sweet bumper of yours?

Yeah...i have the D rings just like the pic. I know i dont have a frame....but i like to think I DO! Just got done installing the tow brackets....lookin good.

i dont have a CB right now....spent all my $$ on the bumper! but i think i can dig up a hand held CB somewhere. If not, i will be the one yelling out the window!

If I make it I can bring a couple of hand held CBs.

I really don’t think we will need them because its only a had full of rigs. Also, I think if we all stick together, we should be all right. The only reason I have a CB, is because it was given to me as a FREEBIE! Other than that, I really don’t need one.
