If I had known sooner I'd be there.
but it's about a 10 hour drive for me. I'd get there and then have to turn around and come back again.
Though I'm now looking for ways to justify and make it work.

[Blows dust off ancient books stacked on old school desk fitted with ink pot] The Elders Of REMLR chose the colours around the turn of the century, when the vehicles in the registry were 99pc Series 2, 2a, and 3; we went with drab olive for low-vis and yellow over red for normal.Quote:

If you have problems with going to sleep/insomnia, keep reading...
The first batch of tacs printed tried to have red and yellow (Hi Lo ranges) combined with green and gold (Australia): http://www.remlr.com/images/tac7.gif
The whole story is here TAC info- www.remlr.com
ZZZZzzzzzzz
Just for the record, my tac signs are not intended to affiliate me with remlr, while i have signed up, im not up to advertising that fact yet.
They also red/white, not red/yellow.

We're on site from Thursday through Monday morning and the event is Friday through Sunday, so you don't have to make it quite so short if you can find the time away from work for traveling/sleeping.Quote:

The 4/19 1tp A sqn adopted the red/white with the dancing devil from the 13pwlh as their unit patch.
And flipped horizontally it becomes 13th as well.

I need both the money and time.
and I'm also needed for museum duty/self employment this weekend.
Looking like it's going to be a longer trip next year.

Just to add to my spamming of this topic:
Managed to get my antenna coax in place today, and dragged out my late brother's old IC208H amateur set, and currently mounting it behind the passenger's seat, and ran wires for the remote head and mic.
Extension speaker to come tomorrow.
Also adjusted passenger door, but after new door top seals and studs, the top still separates from the top seal.
New seal time I think.
Fixed the canvas position on the windscreen clamp, after close observation of Les Hiddin's rig.
Negotiating for a spare rim.
Got spare key blanks in as I snapped my only spare.
They don't fit the lock barrels... This is the second time...
Wheel Brace shouldn't be far away.
Painted my bottle jack with leftover paint from the bullbar because... well why not - what doesn't look good in olive drab?
Then it got too dark, and I remembered I had to work tomorrow.
What's your call sign?
Probably only going to sit on chook band for now. Installing for emergency comms on upcomming trip.
Was about to resit my advanced licence and my assessor died.
Seems to be happening alot lately.
So I'm yet to be assigned a VK3 yet.
since then the bairnsdale radio group disbanded and reformed somehow.
Will tackle that after I return from the states in august.

Found a more legal and type approved UHF at work today with.remote head.
Wired power, antenna, remote head, mic extension, and magnetically attached an extension speaker to the roll bar.
Also connected the solar regulator too.
40 watts of solar on the roof to keep the battery topped up on long stop overs.
Battery bay is getting a little crowded now.
