I have come up with a simple frequency display board that uses LED's to display what channel(s) is/are flying. You plug in the appropriate card for your channel and the display reads out your channel (digits are 6 inches tall). Positive control comes from 'trading' your AMA card (or club card) for the frequency card, just like we do for the clothespin now.

Unlike clothespins, the display can be seen from anywhere on a typical flying field and would seem to offer a higher degree of safety than the traditional method of frequency control at flying clubs. Displays can be portable or permanently mounted on your clubhouse.

I was hoping to get feedback as to whether something like this would be used or wanted. It would cost around $200.00 for a 4 station display. It runs on the same 12v batteries we use for our engine starters (12v/5aH).
