    Have those vehicles been announced before?  Which vehicles are they?

    georgeharper: thinks Iraq = Afghanistan

    So many question never answered by those who believe the election was somehow rigged or invalid.  If Karzai didn't have the votes to win, who did?  How would this other person better represent the Afghans than Karzai.  How was such a fraud carried out with the international community watching so...

    The 2008 Canadian Election- Merged Thread

    Dion's opinions/garble.

    Sorry, no proof they aren't being tortured.  But I've yet to hear "proof" that they are beyond the allegations from the prisoners.  I've sure if you asked enough prisoners in the Canadian legal system at least one will alledge abuse.  It doesn't mean its true and it doesn't mean it false.  But...

    Poll on CTV *dot* ca about the LAV-3

    "Should Canadian troops still be using the LAV III (light armoured vehicle)?" If someone doesn't know that LAV in LAV III stands for light armoured vehicle, they have no business voting.

    Peaceniks Try Direct Mail on Vandoos Destined for AFG

    I'm sorry, but maybe if you stopped saying "Its coming, its coming!" and actually deliver it (has many days has it been?) people wouldn't continuously ask for it.  And to be honest, your posts feel like a lot of vague promises but little substance.  A promise of utopia as soon as we all realize...

    FRS vs Mil Issue Radios

    I think I understand what you're looking for.  Basically you want the range, encryption, versatility of a VHF radio with a point-to-point and Time Division Multiple Access/digital capability of the cell phone network?  Do I understand you correctly?  I hope that made sense.  I think that would...

    FRS vs Mil Issue Radios

    A quick google of "crack WPA" comes back with links.  I think Aircrack has some WPA cracking.  I think its brute force but if you use a simple PSK, it'll be cracked quickly.  I just came off a SANS course a couple weeks ago and the instructor mention something new, but i don't recall what it...

    FRS vs Mil Issue Radios

    There are now tools available on the net to crack WPA networks.  Hence the movement to WPA2.  But it requires new hardware.  You're right that its easily jammed.  Its also very susceptible to denial of service attacks.  Its very easy to spoof a packet telling a client to disconnect from the...

    FRS vs Mil Issue Radios

    wireless networks (802.11) are still a work in progress in some respects.  What was thought to be secure within a year ago can now be hacked in seconds.  IMO its not quite mature enough for classified information.  But I would definately expect a move in that direction as well as "Software...

    questions about CF vehicles

    Sorry, I thought that would have been obvious. I'll rephrase what i said. You'll get qualified on vehicles that you are likely to use.

    questions about CF vehicles

    You get 404s for vehicles you are likely to use.  If your unit has MLVW its easily possible that you can get qualified but it depends on how your unit uses them.  There are SigOps that have G-wagon/Bison/HL but they were required by their job to have them. So to answer your quesiton, if you're...

    "O'Connor has $8B military 'wish list"

    Did you email them about it aesop081?  It actually might make a difference. It seems like their main (only) reference source is CASR.  I used to like CASR but their now constant love affair with Russian equipment has become very annoying.  Before I thought they were just bring it up to just to...

    "O'Connor has $8B military 'wish list"

    The have fixed some of the most glaring errors in the article.  I'm guessing you weren't the only one to email them in. IMO this is one of the least biased pieces I've read.  One in the National Post "O'Connor to make U.S. lobbyists rich" was much worse.

    No "Support our Troops" Billboard, Magnets Allowed - by CF

    Its interesting.  Prime Minister Stephen Harper was president of the NCC at one time.  I really don't understand how DND could have a problem with a "Support our Troops" billboard; there have been plenty of them around Edmonton.  Although I wish they'd think of something other then the red...

    would this make the milcot more viable?

    Where are you getting a 4x4 Silverado Crew cab for $20 000?  I just went to the GM Canada website and one costs $38 000+ w/o any options.

    TCCCS not compatible with US radios?!

    Thanks for the post RecceDG.  So my question is now are they running low on 522/513s that they're using 521s on Archer for inter-packet comms?

    TCCCS not compatible with US radios?!

    Through most of the article they slam the "TCCCs Radio" - The 522.  So I just want to know if the radio is having serious problems or if that part of the article is just BS.  OR are they using 521s?! Yeah TCCCs sucks.  I know.  But I want to know if the radios are failing. I've been a member...

    TCCCS not compatible with US radios?!

    Note I'm defending the radios not the entire TCCCS mess too late If you don't want to waste bandwidth why not tell us what the problem with the radio is instead of a very valuable flame? But I'll acknowledge that shouldn't have worded it the way I did.  What i should have said was "Is it...
