Addendum Re: [MilCom] Monitoring Alert: KBAF Exercise Weekend

[Ken]

Just a few other bits of information.
*I'll be monitoring FRS 7/21 (462.7125 mhz/136.5 hz)  Callsign will be 
"SNOPPY 1".
*Make sure you wear your seatbelts while driving in the city of Westfield & 
on Interstate 90.
*Ensure you have a current/valid driver's license, registration, & 
inspection sticker, as applicable.

Right now it looks like I'll be "on scene" Saturday morning (approx 0900 to 
1200 hrs)
Temperature high for the day will be around 44 degrees.

It will be lots of fun!!!!  Isn't that what this hobby is all about?
