New England Mod & Meetup Thread: May 17 at Jared’s!!

I should be drywalling but how could I not open it….

 

Does anyone need extended rear brake lines? I got a set from accutune but I think I am going to need longer ones for the 63s and 14s

 

Recommendations on a handheld GMRS?

 

This is what I purchased but, it doesn't seem to be in stock anymore.

Rob, do your thing @GarlicFarts

 

Get a

$18 baofeng UV5R BAOFENG UV-5R VHF/UHF dual band radio 144-148mhz 420-450mhz transceiver

baofeng UV5R. You can get it shipped to me and I can program it and run it over to you (in a timely manner this time )

Or get the GM-15 and it will do GMRS out the box without me needing to do anything of any level of legality, in the same capacity. Won't do MURS though.

Not that the UV5R can do MURS. No sir. Not possible.

 

Lol what's MURS

 

Prefect lol.

 

The thread title changed to "axe throwing"?

 

Seems like it could be a good next meet up. There was an axe throwing place next to Running’s yesterday. Jared and I did it in Philly and it was a blast.

 

It's a good time. I did it at patriots place. Have a gift card for one in middleboro as well

 

I had a couple friends do it and they said it was a good time. Is there food and adult beverages there?

edit: found the website,

It's similar to CB, no license needed, used by logging in north Maine woods.

But kinda like Jared said as a joke though. If you need to ask, the you probably don't need it. Get the GM-15 then and call it a day.

Actually no that's a lie. Get an external antenna

Just slap that on the hood when you need to use the radio and it'll be a lot better.

If the volume is too low, let me know, I can make some recommendations then.

I also just saw the GM-15 is USB C rechargable. So i might even get one myself.

I'm in. There's one in (or was one in) Lincoln RI i think.

 

We did that for work and it was a good time.

 

In laws are getting me the GM15 two pack for xmas

 

Axes huh..err, I mean, I throw darts pretty decent for an old guy
