Got them all.

What channels???

I would suggest CB Channel 14 as that is not high use.

Also, for those with 2 meter, 145.57 is a Simplex freq conforming to area band plan for event communications. We have found it suitable for a standard club Simplex frequency.

I will check on a couple of repeaters in the area. It would be a good time to demonstrate the advantage of 2 meter...

FRS - have them.. What channel?? Don't really use them so don't know of potential other users and interference.

I have the sleeping bag and cot (who needs a tent) ready.

I will be leading an "Up the River - on dirt" run for Tierra del Sol from Yuma to Blythe the previous weekend (Oct 2-3). If anyone has extra time and wants to come down early....
