This is my set up for providing shelter off the side of my Defender. I use both tarps and a side awning to provide shelter from rain and sun. Both are fairly quick to set up. WANT TO CONTRIBUTE?

An overview of the 4x4 communication options available for Australian travel. I cover the basics including UHF CB radio, AM CB radio, CB radio antenna selection, HF radio, mobile phone, GPS trackers like the Garmin inReach or SPOT tracker and Personal Locator Beacons. I recommend carrying at least two forms of communication devices, one short-range and one long-range device. This is particularly important for solo or remote area travel. This is both for redundancy in the event one breaks, and to provide options in communicating with local travellers and distant emergency services for assistance. Includes a more in-depth overview of Australian HF radio clubs and operation, and the optional features available with radios such as the Codan NGT. *Please note the range distances given are estimations of the maximum range possible. These will vary widely due to the nature of radio propagation. The distances achieved with radio equipment will depend on radio type, frequency, antenna selection, terrain, atmospheric conditions, EM interference, weather and availability of repeater stations.* WANT TO CONTRIBUTE?
