Re: Definitely OT VHF Radio Install..Ford F250

Yeah.... I always looked for the gromets... If I could squeeze it through one of them... That's great... If not I would drill a hole, run it and use monkey sh!t to seal it.

Personally... If your CF-30 is in good shape I would keep it! I was surprised that my CF-31 at 2.53GHz was SOOOO much faster than my CF-30. Perhaps in some instances it is. But day-to-day...

Re: CF-74GCDEKBM BIOS Locked

Okay... A three pound hammer is a good start. I actually started today with a 4 pound hammer but I can always adjust!
