    CUCV Blazer Question

    Supplies 24 volts to run radio equipment or other devices. Comes in handy if you want to power accessories. Can be switched over to 12 volts easily if needed. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?95803-M1009-Rear-power-24v-to-12v-modification&highlight=battery

    86 M1009 water fording ideas

    Many microwave and broadcast antenna systems use 3-5 PSI for pressurizing the wave guide and air coax cables. New ones are available but expect to pay $300+ for a regulator with gauges.

    Why can't I get FM radio?

    Try a magnet mount antenna, a 2 meter ham antenna would be a good one to start with. It should work well for the FM band and may work well enough for the AM band.

    Why can't I get FM radio?

    Make sure that the center conductor of the coax cable is not shorted to the the outer shield at the antenna and at the connector on the back of the set. A 24" piece of wire hanging out the back of the antenna connector should hear something. Can you provide more info on the 12v powered...

    Participated in the ARRL VHF contest yesterday from a mountain top site. Band conditions were lousy until I got home. Then 6 meters had a nice opening for a little bit. Figures.

    Glow Plug wiring idea. Comments please

    Very interesting idea. One thing to keep in mind, the GP's draw 100 amps when all of them are working. All of your components will need to be rated for that amperage draw. Where would you mount the knife switch and protect it from accidental contact on the exposed parts of it? Perhaps use a...

    CUCV oil cooler lines from NAPA

    Rick, I used the NAPA ones on my M1009. They do fit...sorta. You might need to massage the aluminum bends on the engine side. The next time I will replace the rubber part and reuse the aluminum ends. The factory aluminum ends are a better fit than the NAPA ones.
