I missed the Lost Coast Run. I'm not missing this. I'm in! :ehcapt:

Scrambling to get the "mandatory" items. Anyone have any experience with this radio?

I have my truck back so I am in for sure. This will be a good shake down run for it to get any possible bugs worked out.
BTW, for those of you who are going on the run, my truck will be equipped as it is for the Raptor Expedition runs. I will have all my trail gear, tools, recovery equipment, first responder trauma kit, and satellite phone if needed.
Hopefully we wont need any of it and it will be a smooth trip.

Are we doing door decals for this run? I really liked the ones Myron did for the lost coast run and it reminds me the great time I had on that run every time I see it in my garage.

Oh and you can move me up to for sure going now Bigg

Sorry, I hadn't thought about it and we are running out of time. Problem is, I didn't design the first one, I just had it printed.

I think we need some sort of small NorCal/NV Raptors sticker for our back windows that we can pass out on the runs. It would be easier than designing a new one each time. I don't have the skills though.

Don't get that one as it's not programmable. It will only work on the preprogrammed marine channels and you need to broadcast on 151.625 (weatherman).

I picked up this extra handheld by wouxon. Ruffstuff has it and it's very easy to program. He was nice enough to get me the software for programming it. I can send it to you.

Here's a link:

and get the usb cable for programming:

I was thinking thing. We should make a general expedition sticker/decal that we can just reuse for all our runs.
