Make a right at the traffic light (Only one you'll come to) and go about 6 miles untill you come to the Polar Bear ice cream building on the right (just after the Apple Grill resturaunt). We are in the same building as the Polar Bear.

If coming down I-80 to the Delaware Water Gap, take I-80 into PA and get off at US Rt. 209 (heading towards Milford) Take Rt-209 into Milford and make a right at the traffic light (Only one you'll come to) and go about 6 miles untill you come to the Polar Bear ice cream building on the right (just after the Apple Grill resturaunt). We are in the same building as the Polar Bear.

If coming from NYC or Westchester area, take Rt.17 to I-84 and head towards Pennsylvania.

OK Gang,

If anyone needs directions, PM me and I'll get them out to you along with a list of hotels. I'm not 100% certain, but the ball and chain may let me open the house up to a few people if they need bunking accomodations. :o I will update on this further as more infor becomes available.

Well, I know it doesn't matter a hill of beans to anyone else, but...
I'm at the academy until 1615 (barring an early class completion).
Mapquest says 1.5 hrs. Since I tend to exceed the marked limit a wee bit :wink: ,
I'll probably shave a little off that, so figure me to arrive in the 1730-1745 timeframe.

It is looking good for me. It's only a 2 hour drive for me so I doubt I will need overnight accomdations. I might need to effect revenge on YOUR office this time Chuck!

I will find something!

So are there any comms we should use for the drive and the approach? I want to get everything programmed in all the various radios well ahead of time.

MAtt, if you use the Dayton channels you should be good to go.

151.880 DPL 143 I'm sure will be the primary...

I don't have DPL on the VHF mobile, only my portable. Is there a UHF Bat-Channel I can drop in the CDM??

Anyone have narrowed down times for this?

Nope. The only things I have that are VHF are the 2M side of my Icom mobile and a GP300. Everything else is UHF.
