  1. I haven't seen the spots so I can't comment on them directly. I would however like to see them run Shaneen Allen's story and what they are doing to support her. I think we'll get much further by highlighting how many of our existing firearms laws ensnare the law abiding citizens.
  2. Apparently neither does NJ even if you've been kidnapped or directly threatened.
  3. I hope they take our law word for word. Let it get challenged in another district.
  4. If I shoot the intruder during the comition of the crime aren't they in illegal possession of the hollow point bullet?
  5. I too live in Sussex but unfortunately my company will only pay for parking and not shuttle service due to the cost. We pass on the parking fees to our customers as part of our project costs but I'd like to do what I can to save them a few dollars. Thanks for the suggestions everyone. I'm going to look into the recommendations.
  6. Has anyone used and can recommend an off site parking option for Newark Airport that is less expensive than Newark's P6 Long Term Lot rate?
  7. If person A is at the top of a mountain and person B is at the top of another mountain and said mountains are high enough that a line could be drawn between the two without encountering any obstacles (other mountains, trees, the curvature of the earth) then it might just make it 30 miles. Realistically you might be lucky to get a mile or two out of them in the real world. Even hand held amateur radios running in simplex mode (radio to radio) can't go but a few miles because of line of sight obstacles. This is why repeaters are used to increase the range when using VHF / UHF radios.
  8. There are also iPhone and Android apps for taking practice exams that can also help you track your progress. I liked them better then the websites as I could run through a few questions almost anywhere when I had a few minutes to spare. Remember, you don't need a license to purchase or listen but you absolutely must be licensed in order to transmit and must only transmit within the frequencies and modes your license allows. 73 KD2FQD
  9. Jim Beam Black, neat.
  10. Don't forget to budget in some means of securing the generator. Many people lost theirs during Sandy. You could go crazy with trying to lock it down but if there's a few running in the neighborhood and yours has a chain around it they'll probably go on to an easier target. Mine gets chained to the support column for my deck. Could they cut the lock / chain? Sure but why make it easy for them.
  11. I hear that's the 5th most dangerous gun
  12. I don't think they'll go the Illinois but rather like Maryland or even New Jersey. Since the SCOTUS declined to rule on Justifiable Need they will go that route most likely. They'll be a process to apply but ultimately they will decline almost all applications as the need for the person will not outweigh the need of the public in their eyes.
  13. Something else to consider is a hybrid water heater if yours is currently electric. Basically it uses a dehumidifier to draw heat out of the air and dump it into the water in the tank saving from having to use the heating elements. In the process it also extracts the humidity from the air exactly like a dehumidifier that gets plumbed / pumped to a drain. When our water heater goes that's what replacing it. If I have to run a dehumidifier I might as well capture the heat and use it.
  14. Any bets on Jersey City giving this a try?
  15. Sounds to me that this woman should be a poster child for how insane our laws are. Hardworking, single mother of two, law abiding citizen with no past criminal history and a woman of color who made a genuine mistake. Why should she be treated worse than someone who has demonstrated themselves to be a career criminal. This should be all over the news and the community should be demanding not only her release but a re-evaluation of the laws that would allow her to incarcerated.

    Before you decide to shelve that rig take a practice exam at hamexam.org (or a similar site). You want the Element 2: Technician (Starts July 1). It's 35 questions and see how you do. You might be surprised how much you know or you can common sense figure out. Take it a few times and if you see yourself scoring in the 85 to 90% or better area go take the test for real somewhere. I started that way and once I took the Technician a few times I decided to try the next level General. Few weeks later, back in February I sat for and passed both elements on the first try and walked away with my General ticket for $15. The club even had me try the Extra level exam since I did so well on the first two but I hadn't prepared for that and didn't make it from zero to hero on my first run. Practice exams are free and that radio will do you no good, emergency or otherwise, if you don't learn how to set it up and use it.
  17. Yes. You can do it directly on the tablet or from another device and then have it sent to the tablet. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
  18. My wife and I both have Nexus 7 tablets that we got last year. Both very happy with them. Nice that they get the updates direct from Google and aren't loaded up with extra bloatware. The size is also much better in my opinion than the iPad as you don't get as fatigued holding it. Also nice that they are less than the iPad so we aren't as paranoid about them being damaged or lost.
  19. I thought the Chief of Police could only deny the permit based on the applicant not being qualified to have the firearm whereas the judge was the one to determine justifiable need.
  20. If the passenger lives in direct path to and from the range and is willing to jump into and out of a car moving at the speed limit? I suggest a mini van because of the sliding doors.
  21. When has the other side ever burdened themselves with all the facts?
  22. They're pushing hard in the news today how that shooter yesterday was tackled when his 5 round shotgun was being reloaded. I wouldn't be surprised to see that as justification that 5 rounds is the new new new magic number.
  23. When Christie leaves if Sweeney gets in we will definitely have the 10 round limit. If Fulop gets elected, prepare yourself for the 5 round bill to go through the system.
  24. I will not be surprised if he signs it. He supported the AWB and 10 round magazines in 1994 and if he thinks that he can get away with it, or if he's given up on running for president, he'll sign it. He is not a supporter of ours unless it impedes his climb. If he thinks he can weather Bridgegate then I bet he'll think he can weather this.
