      Opsec, SigInt, other Electronic Warfare

      With all the activity going on at the border, all the "military aged men" flooding over, we could be faced with the real possibility of a domestic fight on our hands... Red Dawn. The 1980's version, though. The enemy will have ample access to radios, GPS, night vision and electronic devices that...

      Update on Carry in WMAs

      The more I think about the responses I got from the LDWF, the more it sounds like they tell you one thing, then do another, because they always want that reason to be able to arrest you, in their back pocket, when they need it. This is the worst kind of law enforcement and why I left.

      Update on Carry in WMAs

      99% of the time, I would agree. The issue is, there are people out there, if they were to get in trouble, would put their livelihood in jeopardy. Even if they don't, who wants to go through all that? This is no different than the ATF, making and changing laws on a whim. These people aren't...

      Update on Carry in WMAs

      Another update... Senator Miguez's office told me "the Wildlife and Fisheries Commission adopted some changes" I think it's a start, but still violates existing state law. 4. Firearms a. Firearms having live ammunition in the chamber, magazine, cylinder or clip when attached to firearms and...

      GMRS radio's, anyone else ?

      I was able to hit one of the repeaters and got it to chirp back to me, but no one could hear me.

      GMRS radio's, anyone else ?

      Got my GMRS license back in Feb. but the closest repeater is in BR, about 40 miles away. Line of sight and interference makes it hard to transmit and there is something bleeding over channels 3, 17 and 18, in/around Breaux Bridge. I have a post about it on mygmrs, but no one seems to know what...

      Dead Phones

      I have been working on getting my ham radio license. There is also GMRS, but no repeaters around Lafayette/St. Martinville/Breaux Bridge. CB is pretty much dead because of these 10,000 watt douche canoes out of California, Arizona and elsewhere, talking over everyone, cursing like sailors and...

      Another reason why I don't do Mardi Gras parades in New Orleans

      I have been there multiple times, all day long, from open to close. I have never had a problem. These guards were different. My kids told me they witnessed one of the guards yelling at a young mother and told her to 'keep her kid quiet' because it was crying too much. The whole attitude of the...

      LSP seize 64 unlawful pistols during Mardi Gras

      I was going to say something, but you got to it before me. Preach!

      Another reason why I don't do Mardi Gras parades in New Orleans

      I will not go to the WW2 museum, again, either. Went there last year, for the 3rd time, and I walked in with a group of people, one of whom was in a wheelchair. I had walked up the stairs and was in the merchant marine section, about 200 feet, before the security guards tracked me down, asked me...

      Just Some Good 'ol Red Beans Today

      Wife learned to stop cooking me food heavy with beans. Looks good, though.

      roof steam backing up into attic from gas heater

      So, the exhaust vent doesn't go all the way past the roof line? Is that what I'm understanding? Also, is there a cap preventing rain from falling into the exhaust?

      Talk about digging yourself in a hole

      Yep, thank you!

      roof steam backing up into attic from gas heater

      It doesn't sound like the attic is venting. You need to check the vents under the soffits and the vents at the gables. Is the exhaust vent for the heater clogged or stopped up? Is the evacuation fan working properly? When they go out, they might sound like they are running, but not actually be...

      What’s the most essential gear to have during a national emergency?

      +1 @WhereIsIt? - Water or a way to purify it. Some way to keep warm and dry. Some way to defend yourself. Some way to get food. ( I put this one here because if you can't do the first 3, you're dead, anyway) Some way to stay concealed or blend in with everyone else. If you look all tactical...
