Re: Indiana Crossfires Meet and Greet
Sounds like we have a consensus for an I-64 route, but that most folks want to wait until later (probably late Spring of 2010) to plan the particulars. Possibly the best alternative for all of us is to wait until we see how vacations and personal commitments get scheduled, before we commit to times and dates for convoying to St Looie.
On a similar note, I accessed Bohrmian's Map again and found a Page 2, on which, lo and behold, there is an I-70 Route (ichon's route). Ichon is leaving Eastern PA, traveling (close) to Pittsburgh PA, through Columbus OH, through Indianapolis IN and on to St. Louis. Now Hoosier's have two alternatives for ganging up to fight off the troopers.
On another similar note, I see that the Western contingent of the Dragon is already on the road. Itsky left Denver (ahead of a snow storm) and is in Topeka KS. Were still ahead of him, and we haven't even left yet (although Jane will be there Thursday night)! I'll see y'all on Friday.

"Ohio Valley Crossfires" Nothing too complicated, just something to try and organize Crossfire owners around Evansville and along the Ohio, maybe even James up in Cinci. Hopefully we can organize a few drives involving owners from Louisville and other areas. Lots of nice driving along the Ohio River.

We will look for you, and we all/most of us should have walky talky's on "some" channel. We used Channel 2 for the IL/KY run, but I don't know what channel we'll use Friday.

Re: Indiana Crossfires Meet and Greet
I was reading on the net about those radios the other day. Used them on a trip to Canada in Oct. Anyway the site said that those private sub channels only stop you from hearing others on the same channel that you and your partner are on. Others can however still hear you if they are on sub channel 0 or don't have subchannels. I have 4 radios and it seems to be the case. Channels 1-7 FRS & GMRS shared low power, Channels 8-15 FRS only low power, Channels 15-22 GMRS only more power longer range ( the ones that require a license).

When we are in Florence, I am hoping someone can get me straight on which chennels/sub channels we are going to use. I just got the radio a couple weeks ago for the occasion and have yet to turn it on....

I'm in the same boat with a new set of 2-ways. Maybe you and Doc can show me how these work. I'll have them with me, but I have yet to turn them on.

Re: Indiana Crossfires Meet and Greet
Doc and Dennis, Thanks for a fun ride home, when it warms up, we will have to have some get togethers for sure.
I think Doc should try to get them to stop traffic for us so we can make some high speed runs through Cicero LMAO. What do you think, Doc???
