Steve, I'm guessing they're 1 watt or less?

Luke Heslo, use the principle of $$$ vs Performance Gained to work out how far you should go........sometimes you can spend $1000 for only 5kw of power more.

Very true, Law of Diminishing Returns

Spot on guys, was speaking to Dave (scandyflick) about this earlier and we both came to the same conclusion. You can keep going and going and going but what you get in return may be very little.

Well I should probably go to bed after another night of watching the World Cup.

I was disappointed when I went for a walk at 6am that the sun still hadn't come up. I didn't see it yesterday and probably won't see it again today.

[scandyflick]

welcome to my world david, please enjoy your stay.

I got a 5 watt Feidaxin from ebay for $80.... plenty of good chinese CB's that have loads of power and a bunch of features. I bought mine with a USB programming cable so I can do fun stuff with repeaters and the like

able to talk to my mate in Henley Beach and I'm near Hampstead Gardens so thats quite a way - and thats without upgrading the antennae

speaking of radio thingos

does anyone know where i can get a 30+dB yagi wi-fi antenna? need to set up a VPN over long distance wireless.

[bezender]

hey Nigel, i was just looking into something similar (on a much smaller scale though, just the wifi network in my house between the media box and my media server needs a boost)

i'll dig up the websites i have found in a moment

cheers. I found one on Egay, but reluctant to buy from hong kong with no warranty, and poor item description.

I'll be setting up a 1.2km wifi VPN, and need something BIG.

Ps: when I upgrade, you are more than welcome to have my old 11dB antennas to upgrade your wifi

those are 5.8ghz antennae, not sure if they work on the 2.4ghz frequency. 2nd link looks better for ya

31 is alive again, limiter check, all good.

just the VS commo rear callipers to be put on and splice into break lines for hydro and its done

after i pick it up, that will make it over 10k spent so far.

and its just a 31.... so much for budget slider.

total would be half that if i did as much i could myself.

[Weezy]

Put the receipts in the bin man, they're so depressing lol.

Skids Saturday? You have a 40th or something though correct?

[craig R33]

yeah man, no skids til august, unless theres a private day before hand

[Weezy]

I've sold my car so skids for me soon too

My first time out there is going to be so nerve racking, once I get passed that first initial point and get some confidence it'll be good fun

I'd much rather my first time actually out there be a private day rather then spectators everywhere

[craig R33]

tbh man, i was more nervous actually driving out to lala, coz i had time to think about it.

when your there, getting the car ready, signing in etc etc, time flys and before you know it,

your on the track and excited more than scared..

what are you buying?
