I had the brainy idea to throw frozen pizza on the charcoal grill over the weekend for something different. Totally different and very good. I will be doing that again.

It was my understanding that @85_Ranger4x4 was bringing his wife's Bronco for us to test out.

I'm pretty sure @snoranger side x side is bigger than his wife's Bronco sport.

It’s about the same size... My SxS just has a touch more ground clearance.

It will be coming to a roundup... dunno what year it will be though.

I will be very surprised at this point if we get a '21, my prediction is we won't have it until early next year..

Now hardtops in general are a constraint...

what was the radio's that @Jim Oaks had last year? they were gmrs right? and you don';t need a license to operate them?

It depends on the wattage you are running at. I think the cap for non licensed use is 5 watts depending on the channel. Anything more than that, you need a license.

Unless someone in your party has a license IIRC.

GMRS license covers your family members.

GMRS license covers your family members.

Just like actual family?

 

[Jim Oaks]

An individual GMRS system licensee may permit immediate family members to be station operators in his or her GMRS system. Immediate family members are the:
(1) Licensee;
(2) Licensee's spouse;
(3) Licensee's children, grandchildren, stepchildren;
(4) Licensee's parents, grandparents, stepparents;
(5) Licensee's brothers, sisters;
(6) Licensee's aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews; and
(7) Licensee's in-laws.

Actually to be more exact...

§ 95.1705 Individual licenses required; eligibility; who may operate; cooperative use.

​

(c) Individuals who may operate a GMRS station. This paragraph establishes who may operate a GMRS station under the authority of an individual license.​

Good choice, that’s the same one I got. That bundle comes with the nice antenna mount and the short antenna... thats why I got it.
