What do thjey cal you , Mr Negative ?
Man, mello out, Mr. Doomsday.
Do what works for you, I run 3 radios whils moble by myself, and intend to
add CB for those inclined, its NOT THAT HARD!
FRS is is so limited to distance , I no longer trust it, How much do they
cost ?
A Licence is not that hard either, do what you want, But a FCC Ticket will
give you MORE OPTIONS ! ! !
Give your guys some options, after all, they have MV's they must be capable
of more than you imply.
Its my opinion that MV'ers are resoursefull, and helpfull, and nothing is
beyond the TEAM .
I am proud of our guys, give your guys the chance, They will not let you
down, I AM SURE OF IT !
