Sounds like things are going pretty well. Congrats for jumping into the snake pit and making a go of it. I got my authority in Nov and had my...
PC, maybe the permit does it for Oregon. I was just assuming because NM & KY require apportionment. Here is another story but about NY. I got...
Question: why is your(his) apportionment $1400 while mine is almost $2400. Mine is in California but I know many other states are close to $2400...
Nothing quite as useful as a good all in one printer in the truck. You can conduct a lot of business without depending on anyone else. I don't...
I don't use a fax. I email everything. I have a PDF of my authority, W9, references, company profile, etc that I package with a scanned copy of...
Me too. I had the certificate in the mail in less than a week. Do not pay to get it faster. You will never need the certificate. Anyone that wants...
There are two kinds of costs to run a truck, fixed and variable. Fixed costs are the ones that are the same every month regardless of whether your...
You guys are right, 85% of nothing is pretty much nothing. One thing is for certain... We can't control the rates but we can control our costs.
PlumCrazy, Just did it myself. Week one, OMG can I do this? Week two, I was an idiot for not doing this years ago. Five bits of advice - - If...
I wouldn't work for a company paying less than 85% of gross with a policy of total transparency. I want to see the rate so I know I am getting my...
I would get my authority and work a while before deciding. There is plenty of freight out there to support you without dealing with hazmat....
I have this same problem, making too much money. My fuel mileage at 33 or 34 miles per gallon, I just can't help but make too much money with...
I had a similar problem on my ISX 530. On a hill my oil temp would climb to above 250. Problem was a $32 water temp sensor. Look at your water...
I have mixed emotions about truck stop prices. I like to complain about them but maybe that isn't fair. Afterall the parking is free. It costs...
I use my GPS to tell me how far it is and how fast I'm going. I use my atlas to ensure I stay on yellow roads. I use my eyes to identify hazards...
Actually, those antennas are horizontally polarized.
I have never tried that scheme. Looks simple. The impedance should be close. My only concern is that the 75 ohm cable doesn't match the 50 ohm...
Cophased antennas are not 75 ohm. Almost any two matching antennas can be cophased. The cophase harness presents a 50 ohm impedance to the radio....
You do not Tee off the back of the radio. You have to use a cophase harness. Cophase harnesses are made using 75 ohm rather than 50 ohm coax.
The stereotype might exist but I think it exists mostly in our minds. I think we see one slob and it jades our opinion so badly that the next ten...
