Good job .. I think you handled it well, I don't know if I would have done so well... :+ Dreamer

DD, I understand your point, but I think if everyone does their best to be professional, we can still keep the positive vibe going no matter what. I will never delete a difference of opinion. What I ask, is for people not to purposely bash another poster, and insult them. Seems some people...

We're on a positive vibe here the past few weeks, and we're going to keep it that way. We are not going to put up with anyone making jabs, or insulting other posters. We will keep these forums professional, so that we can continue to help new and old members alike. It's not a popularity...

justdoit, This question has been answered in every forum you posted it in, so I deleted the rest, and we'll let just this one thread stand. The standard rules are the ones you agreed to when you signed up, as Lawrence AND DaveKC have posted in this thread and another. I would have thought...

For those who didn't make it, like me, or those who simply wanna see them... a contributor has uploaded several albums of MATS pics to the Webshots.com screensaver/wallpaper site. http://community.webshots.com/album/310926600xJbAEB/3 He got a few shots of expediters too, including the two...

If I remember correctly, x06col IS the company? Is that not correct x06col? You are the owner, you have your own authority, running your own trucks, not leased to anyone? Dreamer

Nuff ta make a fella.... [img src="http://users.telenet.be/eforum/emoticons4u/mad/1106.gif"]

Congrats to Rich! Nice to see someone who stuck it out thru the ups and downs, and prove it can be done! Dreamer

Nuff said....

Set on low, just a slight bit of echo, and staying OFF the other bands.. converted 10 Meter Galaxies play great. I've had a 66 and an 88, and properly tuned, they transmitted and received wonderfully. However, many people cannot resist the temptation, they crank em up, overmodulate, echo on...

oldprof, Each place provides the towels. However, many times it's only one, and it's small.. LOL.. never hurts to have your own. As for times limits, I beleive most places it's like 1/2 hour or so, but I've never seen it stressed. It's more just a matter of courtesy for the next guy in line.

That is something that cannot be stressed enough! You need at least one deep cycle battery mounted inside the van. The Qualcomm should be run off of that battery, and make sure you use an isolator block, so as not to run down your main battery. If you plan to use many 12 volt accessories, two...

My advice? Live in the country, tell city council to kiss..well.. never mind... :+ :+ Dreamer

Just put the engine right next to the tuba .. :) Seriously, each carrier will have their own list the will give you for required equipment. Usually you will need straps for the E-Trak, hammer and nails, and some pieces of 2x4 for blocking freight, etc. Also, I recommend you have some small...

LOL@Tuba.... Good list so far, also you might want to carry pads and pens. You'd be surprised how many times you need to scribble something down, and Walmart is a lot cheaper than truckstops. Also, may I advise: Extra sunglasses, extra glasses (if you need them) a set of basic hand tools...

Just to give you an idea of an easy setup, here's a quick sketch of a bunk I used made from 1 inch square tubing. If you know anyone handy with pipe and torch, or it could be bolted together with the right brackets, then fastened to the floor, ceiling etc with sheet metal screws. This one uses...

That's a good idea Geo, I'll bring that up, and see how we could do that. Dreamer
