I would recomend using a different ham freq. than 146.52 simplex as most hams use it for a chit chat freq. and in a large city it would be busy all the time. When I am out doing stuff like Geocaching I use 147.570 kinda off the beaten path type. PANDA77 Patrick Brown Check out http://www.geocaching.com/ http://www.azgeocaching.com/
