Anyone been up to Coyote Flat yet this year?

No, but I wish I did... Went last year though

I have this one https://www.amazon.com/Viair-00088-...pID=41OycFDAm9L&preST=_SX300_QL70_&dpSrc=srch

Fills up my 35s just fine from 10psi. Takes about 30 minutes though which cuts into the duty cycle time. Just a suggestion though.

You fill 35's with that thing? Dang...

I have the 88p too... and It's a slow crawl back up to 35psi from 20psi. Idk how you deal with it. :lmao:

Haha well having no choice but to use this certainly helps in dealing with it. Until I shell out money for an ARB twin compressor, but my S/C comes first!

Just get a 400 and be done with it.

Cb, ham, both, none?

Just get the ARB Twin Compressor. That thing fills 35's even super fast.

ARB is amazing, but also the price reflects it.

Open Box 400s are great, esp if you wait for the 15% / 20% ebay deals

Any recommendations on a decent CB for the runner? I'm looking at few Cobra ones, they all seem the same to me. It looks like that the antennas are sold separately, not sure if all the CBs have an input for that.

oo just saw this thread. Would have been down if I didn't already have commitments on Sat. Have fun guys.

Mad props for having that much patience. Lmao

For the trail run, I guess most will be running cb... I also have ham, not sure about others. Some running none.

That thing paired with a tank, would be killer.

But that price tag.... :Cry:

I've also been eyeing the CO2 tanks haha

Fwiw... My cobra died right past a year, so warranty was unusable. Got a uniden and it sounds way clearer and built way better than the cobra.

Yes, antennas are sold separately. CBs have an input for the antenna on the back of the unit.

So something like this: http://r.ebay.com/k7johF and a decent magnetic antenna?

Yep. FWIW, I run the Uniden Pro520XL CB Radio which is half the cost of that. Doesn't have NOAA weather alerts though. I think some of us/majority of us run the Midland 18-2442 Antenna. So far it's handled abuse from trees pretty well and gets decent range in my experience.

 

[having fun]

So, [MENTION=142877]Folsom4Rnr[/MENTION] you set in stone on a 945 meet up.
You do realize, that's about nap time for us OGs.

Yeah... but you can get one NIB from Jeff (with free shipping) for a few bucks more and not have to worry about what someone did to the used flebay one...

FWIW... I have FRS and CB
HAMs (technically) require licensure...

My CB is a cheapy from amazon... works well enough for the amount I use it.
Midland 75-822 40 Channel CB-Way Radio
Midland 18-2442 Mobile CB Antenna

Wasnt aware OGs napped during the 9am hour

Yeah... I think Im set on that time, as there are others meeting us at the Trailhead.

You could always leave earlier park there and nap while you wait for us :shrug: Just a thought
