Who's Ready For The Dragon? (MOTD)
Can someone suggest the 'best' 2-way radio to use at the Dragon? I am going to buy a new one and I want something with power, distance, channel selection and dual power. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Teddy

That's the radios I bought for the Dragon year before last. Before that I used mismatched random brands I picked up of FleaBay. The new ones seem to work okay. Thanks for reminding me. I need to find and get the radios charged. Haven't seen them or the charger since last year.Joined: Oct 2013

looking great Teddy! Look forward to seeing you again.
It's has shortwave so don't use the frequencies in that range. But the FRS works great!
Unfortunately, we're not coming this year. Next year, Msfitoy will be trailer down to save on highway miles.

I'm still working to sort out my new suspension system so I can get it aligned before the Dragon. Only downside of testing a prototype. Need to get the ride level in the rear sorted out tomorrow afternoon.
If you see Barry out & about on his golf cart, and if you enjoy MOTD, be sure to give him a quick word of thanks. I know how hard he & all the volunteers work to pull this thing off, and the appreciation or simple words of gratitude make a difference.
Afternoon, all!
I just noticed that this is about to happen and I just obtained my F56 S a few days ago.
I live about an hour from 'the dragon' and will be free all that weekend. I know registration is already closed, but is it worth me taking a ride out to join up on Saturday? My wife will be out of town so it would be just me - wasn't sure if I would feel odd just rocking up by myself and not knowing anyone.

You might catch me at the MA tent sometime Friday. There are some good guys over there. NAM is just a sponsor this year. Maybe we'll have a tent again next year.
