.I'll repost below the frequencies that we will be using, but I would like to find out since it's under a week or so to go how many people will be there. If you want to post your sellers space, MDC ID for paging, whatever, feel free.
Looking forward to meeting/seeing everyone there. Whenever you get there give a call out, and you never know who will be listening Thursday night from their hotel....

A few notes:
1) Crossband will be setup as soon as we get a chance to assemble it. Don't expect it to be setup at 0700 on Friday. It's just not going to happen.
2) When Crossband isn't up, then monitor those channels, and if you have 2 radios, be kinda and relay if someone is looking for someone else.
3) Please do not talk on channels your not authorized to. Getting your ham license is cake. 6.50 for the test. Go practice on http://www.hamtest.com, and read up on the rules. It's well worth it. See #4 about GMRS.
4) Getting you GMRS license requires such minimal effort that it's almost worth doing anyway. I had my call w/in 8 hours of registering, and it was $75 for 5 years.
5) Keep it legal. For one, this is an open forum that anyone can browse to and get these frequencies. Please make sure you take some time and referesh your memory about your operating practices, and please adhear to them. There is rumored to be people wandering about representing a number of agencies that could easily get you in trouble. Be kind, curteous and thoughtfull of this. Say a few words on one channel your not supposed to isn't worth $10,000 and or a few months/years (whatever the penalty may be). Listen to where some of us are and try and meet up.
6) Have fun. Use your board name in conjunction of your call sign for the respective services that require it so we know who you are.
Post your MDC information if you'd like so I can add you to my call list, and to get a genearl idea of who is going.
This is the final revision of this plan, and it will undergo no changes beyond this point. The "GREEN" murs channel will remain the primary channel on VHF, and we'll make the XBAND/ALPHA channels the primary ones for UHF.
