I would get the ARRL guide to the local repeaters in you area. Also depending where you go you can also program out of state repeaters. By the way the FT60 is a great HT, I have one and also a FT8800 mobile rig. source

Does anyone know what radios they were using in the movie Vertical Limits? Anybody know what kind of radios are used in reality for stuff like moutain climbing? I would think a VHF Saber I would be great for the situation. Very durable, with a big PTT for use with gloves. I don't know how well a Saber would hold up in ultra cold condtions like in the movie though. source

Ive mounted 911ep bars between the roof rails on explorers and tahoes. Ive used brackets and mounted them to the factory sliding rails. source

I think about half of the attendants are women and all of the massage therapists are women. I used to play sports when I was younger so I have no inhibitions in locker rooms and the women hanging out in there are really not interested in looking at the naked bodies of a bunch of men. Even in the locker area, they are sometimes right next to you cleaning up and nobody pays them any attention at all. The modesty factor has never crossed my mind in there and I've probably been there 50 times. I've had friends who were a little nervous when I told them about it but after they go there and see it they have no problems at all with it. source
