I'm sure other motorists love that thing when the sun gets on it...
Spoken like someone who has never used the 'swinging a dead cat' metric.
Yesterday, I went out today with a couple of guys from the amateur radio club to do some maintenance on a remote repeater station that's been offline since the beginning of summer. The mountain was on top of the Hodgson Range next to Lords Table Mountain which you can see in most of my photos.
I didn't start the tracker app on my phone until a bit of the way up the mountain, but this tracked bit was 1.4 km with a 288m elevation up basalt rock faces and escarpments. The yellow line I drew in was the rough route we took back down to the road. It took us approx 1.5 hours to climb up and 2.5 hours to come back down.
When we eventually found the tower site, we found the repeater tower had fallen over with a couple of the guy wires rusted through and the top antenna had been struck by lightning at some stage.
So some rigging of what was left of the guy wires and a lot of grunting and lifting to lift the tower back up and string it back in position.
A couple of new batteries for the repeater and new digital APRS modules were installed as well as a new solar charge controller.
While we were on the top of the mountain, a light shower came down followed by a stiff S-W wind that chilled us to the core just before we headed back down. Luckily the trip down dried us out and warmed us up again.
On the downward trip, we took the left-hand spur line as it had rained while we were up there, and this also meant that we didn't have to scramble back down some of the rock faces that we had to tackle on the way up.
As you can see from the rust in the old fridge, this station has been up there for about 30 years now and all of the larger gear was lifted in a helicopter back in the day.

Put cameras on regular employees a let management or OSHA review. They’d be fired by morning break.
Congress then wised up and legalized Super PACs. Now they get all their “bribes” through political contributions, stock tips, cushy jobs for relatives and advances on book deals.
An amazing amount of work, To get that back on the air.

Good idea disguising the unit to look like a dump pile. Just kidding. Good work. That’s what I call an active club.

Great points. Why pair them with the most retarded pic you could possibly find?
Looks like the FBI were manufacturing crimes long before Trump.
There was a Burger King on Taji, I remember in 2007 a mortar or rocket hit and killed a few TCN's and injured some soldiers.
We've all heard of jack-in-the-box. What about Dick-in-the-Lighter? Prank reaction.
It appears to me that the FBI is in the business of manufacturing crime.
Gathering facts and evidence after a crime is committed is hard.
Proving guilt using that evidence is even harder.
But if you create the crimes, provide the evidence and make up the facts to match the evidence that’s been manufactured, then go find the patsy to commit the crime - you can claim you are doing it all for the good of the public. That’s got to be way easier than than trying to solve crimes committed by actual criminals with their own agendas. The problem is that it in no way reduces crimes or criminals or victims. They are simply in competition with criminals to create crime.
Anybody who works in tech a few years and deals with India reads this normally without missing a beat.
And that's where we have been going wrong. Wow, cool we raised 53 million dollars. Their side has unlimited funds, BLM, free Palestine freaks, million man march.
We should have had every fucking bridge, or road leaving NYC blocked and shut down. They shouldn't have been able to move anywhere in that city.
They should be fearing us. However they don't. They think its cute that we raised 53 million dollars. They think its cute we strongly word posts on social media. They think its cute that we have our guns and ammo (they know they will be rusted over before we would ever actually use them).
This is where the "moral high ground has gotten us", because they know they can persecute us and pass illegal laws with impunity at this point and we will just go to our jobs and pay our taxes regardless.
The forefathers are beyond turning in their graves at this point. They don't want anything to do with us now...
What's everyone scared of at this point, they already have us labeled as terrorists, xenophobics, racists and anything else I've forgotten.
