WEATHER UPDATE!, it''s snowing yet again!, it never snows past March normally and it is a record for this month already. I''m running at least one more time, can''t wait.

GPS ... Ground positioning. Used by hikers , etc. They track off sats and give your position, speed, etc. Pretty cheap now days and handy. some are quite small and they are accurate. I ck''d mine against the speedo in my car.

Less than 100. Handy. Wife uses it for the bike. Does dist, av speed, top speed, etc. If you hike or hunt, you can mark spots as you go and back track etc. Not that Alaskans would get lost !!

I ordered 1 xtra rx to get the freeb and I can still use my old spek rx's on the slower stuff .. nice. You been following the bind issue at all. I had to decide quick to get the promotion and Ultimate has a hell of a sale price. Might get here today. My M8 is gettin old and it's heavy. Not many choices, I'm a lefty.
