    Default I-75 in North Florida

    Came up I-75 today on our way to SITS. The State Police were out in packs around Gainesville. Passed 3 and 4 at a time, each with a cage pulled over. If you're leaving tomorrow and traveling I-75 be very careful. Never saw a trooper in Ga, at least not up to Tifton where we're spending the night.

    While cleaning the love bugs (yes, they are in season), noticed that one of my antenna was completely missing! I just checked them before leaving home!!! I hate to wait of the Tifton dealer to open tomorrow, but I don't want to risk getting water in the hole.

    Y'all have a safe trip.

    Mike

    Duct tape will cover the hole. Never leave home without it.

    Did he only have 1 antenna. If so it probably was MangoMike.
    Sorry, just had to do that

    Go to Walmart in automotive and get one of their $7 fits all antenna and you have a quicki fix till your new one comes in. You might be lucky enough to get it replaced unser warranty. It has been a problem due to lack of lock washer and a little locktite.

    Since we seldom listen to the radio I don't really miss this antenna, but it's good to know it might be a warranty issue. I'll check when I get back home. Since Dave can't make it I guess mid-night auto won't work! Sorry to hear you won't be there Dave, hope everything is okay.
