Will be mobile and portable Tuesday Dec 4th, 2012 from Murfreesboro, TN 
East of Nashville, to South Bend, Indiana. Listed below are the voice 
frequencies I will try and operate / monitor on. They are plugged into 
memory making it easy while in motion to change memories from the mike.

Rig is TS-480 HX running 200 watts into a HiQ 5-160 screwdriver antenna 
mounted on the rear of a Trail Blazer using the trailer hitch for the 
mount. Antenna shunt is a Shunt-100.

Auto tuning is done by a N2VZ Enterprises Turbo Tuner.

Vehicle battery isolation control is done by a APO3 Timing / Voltage 
configured relay - Also keeps power off equipment during starting.

Ham equipment is ran full time off a separate 100 aHr Gel battery. Gel 
battery is charged / isolated from vehicle using a Super PWRgate PG40S. 
Power distribution uses the RIGrunner 4008 which provides over / under 
voltage alarm, multiple fused power pole connections, and reverse 
polarity protection.

Will be running APRS on two meters. WD8ARZ-9 from mobile rig (TMD-700A), 
and from time to time WD8ARZ-5 from Epic 4G smart phone.

Also will be feeding Geiger Counter radiation readings to the 
http://www.radiationnetwork.com/ radiation map.
