The MFJ-9200 - a good deal on a rig now only found on the used market
Jan 2017 - MFJ is no longer selling the -9200 transceiver. As of 1 Jan there is no NOS available. Unless you are able to buy used - the rig is gone. Now, we wait to see if they will even offer a replacement. At this point I am doubtful...

Hatchet/Axe or Machete
If you had to choose between one or the other. Would you rather carry a good quality axe or a quality machete and if possible, please tell us why.
I have a good Husqvarna 26” axe and I am contemplating the purchase of an Ontario SP53 Hen 2 machete. My main reason for wanting the knife is for batoning. It’s use would serve 2 purposes. Camping as well as survival.. Camping is a great way to practice your skills... -
Pantry Ideas
Guys,
Due to some remodeling, I now have a room that we can dedicate as a pantry. It'll mostly be food but will also have hygiene stuff, first aid supplies, etc..
It is just off the kitchen and is 11' long and 7-1/2' wide with about 9' ceilings. I know what supplies to store and how to make them last.
But...any tips on the pantry itself? -
diy-tornado safe room
As others here, I not only live in tornado alley.but I also had one come to close for comfort.i finally ended up with the well needed materials needed to turn/convert the hall closet floor into a tornado safe room and stock it with a few items.only thing is, I didn't think of before and during pics. I'm using my smart phone. So I don't know if I can upload the after pictures or not.the closet walls are done with 1x6 or 1x8.the plywood is 3/4.i do need to go with a catchment for getting some of the item's out of there,just to make a lol more space in there.
