[MilCom] Milcom Hobbyists at Airshows Meetings & "Visibility"

Interesting to note that at the McGuire AFB airshow at least 4 hobbyists 
attended but didn't seem to meet up.  Surely using the nationwide FRS milocm 
"on scene"  calling/communications Frequencies of Channel 14 (467.7125 mhz) 
with CTCSS 38 (250.3 hz) OR the alternate frequency/ctcss is Channel 7 
(462.7125 mhz) CTCSS 15 (110.9 hz) would have greatly aided in meeting one 
another.    I think another viable alternative would be to purchase a 
fluorescent orange/orange baseball type cap and ideally get MILCOM (probably 
in a light blue color) printed on the front of the cap.  Than those 
hobbyists without FRS radios could easily spot other MILCOM list 
participants.   If you do an internet search you should be able to come with 
some sources.

Perhaps we now need to work on the secret handshake!!! ;)
