    Those numbers are typically people running illegal equipment (amplifiers) working dx (distance or "skip").

    Wasn't talking to YOU! :p

    Ya know? You know you're in trouble when 2 hrs into a 4 wait a Chinese man drives up and hands you a menu! LOL

    Dang they are annoying at times... LOL

    I guess I don't see the advantage of that if no one else can respond to you, well, except others doing the same thing I guess.

    Finally in a door! 5 hours later. Being this is my first time here I walked in to ask 2 questions. 1) is anything else I need to do? 2) will I have time to order Chinese?

    Answers: 1) nope we'll call you when done. 2) probably.

    Waiting on lunch now. Lol :D

    Just talked with an ex Abilene driver here. Said he mostly ran BH from ohio to brooklen 3 times a week. I didn't pry as to why he left and it was a short conversation. Nice guy though.

    Ok, we all know what a break check is. I just had a heart check. Sitting at my table enjoying lunch (very tasty btw) and the refer shuts down!! I jump up thinking CRAP!! Another one? Just as I hit the dock after 5 hours!? No Way!

    Start to step outside to see wtf and there's a guy there. Apparently they turn them off while loading here.

    Whew!! LOL

    Stick the menu in your driver's side window or he WILL come back and knock just as you fall asleep.

    Nordic is where I had my 12 hour detention. Got there at 6 for a 9pm appt and got loaded 11am the next day.

    Anyone ever done a 10hr break at that Vince Lombardi service area in NJ?. There are signs up saying there is a $250 fine for idling but was wondering if thats enforced.

    I had to limp here after truck died twice on me, once on the GWB no less.

    I'm hoping a parked regen fixes it as thats what seems to be the isdue.
