Here is a picture of the supplies shelving in the Shop Van after loading the food and other dry goods. One of the refrigerators (former elementary school milk cooler) in the background.
We got back to the compound around 1 pm Sunday, and I then had three round trips to my house (38 miles each) to bring home the excess food and other perishables, then prepare the house for my pickup of my puppy (a 100 pound Rottweiler) on Monday morning. He has wanted to play in the backyard...

In the diagram near the bottom, on the right hand side of the diagram where it says "Caisson Camp" is where I had my MKT setup. I was there to feed the Caisson folks, the HMMWV drivers, and their support people. My kitchen help...
If you parked slightly east of north on your driveway and could lift up the west side of the panels in the morning gradually lowering them as the sun came up, then slowly raising the east side as the sun passed 'directly overhead', you would get near maximal charging. It's the same idea as the...
NO except for one day in the year. The panels should face 11.5 degrees west of south, and the height should be equal to the latitude. Because the earth is tilted at 23 degrees in it's rotation relative to the sun, the most even sunlight over the course of a full year is to have your target (in...
How are you going to get the panels at the correct angle (whatever your latitude is when you stop) for maximum power flow? Assuming you will be able to park perpindicular to 11.5 degrees east of north and the panels will face southerly.
The Military Vehicle Collectors of South Carolina HMMWVs will be driving the remains of 14 individuals who died in the Battle Of Camden (1780) from Columbia to the Battlefield where they will be given a proper burial. The 'Last Mile' will be on horse drawn caissons furnished by Rev War...
Another way to do it is to take the military registration number (which has letters and numbers in it), the four digit military type and the five digit serial number. Then pad with zeros in front of the military type as needed. Clerks are used to having letters in the VIN and it will be 17...
If the organizers are to be believed, there should be a National Geographic video of the event. I've been told the Old Guard is sending a band detachment. The whole thing is somewhat convoluted. The County Coroner has the remains now, in coffins. They will be transported via MVCSC HMMWV's...
I'm scheduled to be with Adam at Camden for the re-internment ceremony, along with my MKT's, cooking for a select group of re-enactors who will be doing the caisson carry of the coffins to their final resting place. I'll be supported by Adam and the rest of the local MV club.
In your third picture, one the extreme left hand side there is a plug that is horizontal (going forward). The correct radio plugs in there. Remember, when using radios, only talk (transmit) on one at a time. Many radio setups had a transmitter-receiver radio for use in talking, and a separate...
