Usually we bash from Noon to dusk. However with easter weekend I don't know what kind of turn out it will be.

Especially since its supposed to be cold sunday as well. 42* high, low 22*

They have a frequency clip board set up. When you get ther just find your frequency and grab the clip. Then when your done return it so someone else can use it. That way everyone knows if someone else is there using the same frequency.

This weekeknd may be a little sparse with Easter and the cold weather though.

Not many of us still run 27mhz AM, many have made the jump to FM, Synth, or Spektrum. Its not nessesary but those three have significantly less glitching than AM does. Spektrum is almost perfect, except its a powerhog.

The Transmitters use roughly 2x as much power as a regular FM, and the Receivers using 4x the power of a standard FM Rx.

I'll scrounge through some of my old AM transmitters and see what crystal sets I still have available.
