It has been a tremendous aid to the Mountain Runs for every car to have a FRS radio aboard: someone makes a wrong turn, unexpected road blocks, etc. For those that have one, may I suggest you bring it, have it charged up, and tuned to Channel 5 sub chan. 3 (initially).
If you don't have such, and are thinking about getting some, now would be a good time. Radio Shack has them, and I recommend the Motorola "Talkabout" FRS radios which seem to be readily available there, and seem to work better than some (as we found out last spring). Just a thought! On another note: Are the routes we'll be taking toll roads? Specifically, I have an IL "I-PASS" transponder for local roads, but IF we cross through some toll road segments in WI, with "I-PASS" work in WI, assuming we even cross such roads in WI?? See everybody on Friday!

I'd like to thank all of you that made this a great event today. It was also super meeting some of you for the first time. Hope to see you again soon. And thanks to Lee for that MAP sensor plaque. Rick Mackie of MMR was very impressed and really appreciated that. I saw him take a shot of it. I'm assuming it was part of a text to Mercury Marine corporate.
Dominic
